In this paper, a 3-dimensional stiffened plate model for soil-metal box structures is proposed. 3-dimensional stiffened plate model is enable to model corrugated steel plates of soil metal box culverts considering section modulus and section properties of longitudinal and horizontal direction from a corrugated steel plate. Loading conditions which causes maximum displacement and maximum moment according to the step construction stages(a back filling to the top of the plate, a back filling to the maximum depth of cover, and loading of live loads) was applied and the behaviors of the soil metal box culverts was analyzed. Analysis results of 3-dimensional stiffened model were compared with those of 2-dimensional model, 3-dimensional equivalent plate model and 3-dimensional corrugated plate model. As results, the behaviors of 2-dimensional model and 3 dimensional equivalent model are different from 3-dimensional corrugated plate model but the result of 3-dimensional stiffened model has good agreement with that of 3-dimensional corrugated plate model.

In the manufacture of corrugated box, the fibrous raw materials are mainly consisted of recycled papers, such as KOCC(Korean Old Corrugated Container), kraft sack, and AOCC(American Old Corrugated Container). Among these recycled waste paper, the proportion of KOCC is relatively higher than others in fibrous raw materials. Generally, KOCC shows some poor fiber properties and contains hazardous heavy metal sources. Therefore, it is to evaluate the property of recycled paper sources for eco-friendly corrugated box manufacture. In this study, the physical and mechanical properties of 3 kinds of recycled fibers and their mixed stocks were analyzed. The environmental assessment was also evaluated by analyzing the 4 representative heavy metal contents and evaporation residues in waste papers. As the results, KOCC showed the poorest fiber qualities and had the highest heavy metal contents and evaporation residues among the recycled fibers. Finally, the mechanical strength properties were increased by decreasing KOCC proportion of mixed stock conditions. In addition, the heavy metal contents and evaporation residues were also decreased by increasing recycled AOCC and kraft sack proportion.

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of electromagnetic pulse shielding in cast-in-place protective shelters using corrugated metal-plates, and then reviews their usability for the Republic of Korea Army. The Korea Corps of Engineering has evaluated corrugated metal-plates as a construction material for cast-in-place structures, which have to defend against mechanical impacts as well as electromagnetic pulses. Corrugated metal-plate is known as a superb mechanical protective material, so much so that it has been employed in ammunition magazines and artillery platforms in the armed forces. Moreover, as a metal, such as steel and copper, it is universally recognized as one of the most effective electromagnetic pulse shielding materials. In addition to effectively shielding from electromagnetic pulses and protecting against mechanical impacts, corrugated metal-plates should prove to be an appropriate construction material for the cast-in-place protective shelter in terms of construction availability and economic feasibility. The shielding effectiveness of the suggested structures is examined based on MIL-STD 188-125-1. A few frequency bands need an increase of 15~30dB in shielding effectiveness because of unbidden apertures caused by flaws associated with welding, assembling, and material deformation. However, allowing for the approximately 40dB of shielding provided by soil; the examined structure, which is buried underground, can offset its shortcomings sufficiently.

The usage of sandwich structure is extensively increasing in lightweight protective structures due to its low density and other useful properties. Sandwich panels made of metal sheets with unfilled cellular cores are found to exhibit lower deflections by comparing to an equivalent monolithic plate of same metal and similar mass per unit density. However, the process of localized impact on solid structures involving plastic deformation, high strain rates, temperature effect, material erosion, etc. does not hold effectively as that of monolithic plate. In present work, the applications of the sandwich plate with corrugated core have been extended to develop optimized lightweight armour using foam as medium of its core by explicit finite element analysis (FEA). The mechanisms of hardened steel projectile penetration of aluminum corrugated sandwich panels filled with foams have been numerically investigated by finite element analysis (FEA). A comparative study is done for the triangular corrugated sandwich plate filled with polymeric foam and metallic foam with different densities in order to achieve the optimum penetration resistance to ballistic impact. Corrugated sandwich plates filled with metallic foams are found to be superior when compared to the polymeric one. The optimized results are then compared with that of equivalent solid and unfilled cores structure to observe the effectiveness of foam-filled corrugated sandwich plate which provides an effective resistance to ballistic response. The novel structure can be the alternative to solid aluminum plate in the applications of light weight protection system.

Vertical loads acting on corrugated metal culverts under negative arching condition were investigated through numerical analyses. Four kinds of corrugated metal culverts with span of 3m were considered in numerical analyses. Also, depths of cover were varied from 1m to 6m with increment of 1m. According to numerical analyses, magnitudes of vertical loads acting on culverts under the condition of negative arching were similar as overburden load on culvert. Furthermore, magnitudes of vertical loads acting on culverts supported by pile foundation were similar as those without pile foundation when depths of cover were less than about 2m. For larger depths of cover which are greater than about two times of span of culvert, magnitudes of vertical loads were slightly larger than those without pile foundation and its tendency becomes more clear as flexural rigidity of corrugated metal increases.

A thin sheet of metal with corrugated structures has been utilized in various devices: heat exchangers, separators in fuel cells, and many others. However, it is not easy to fabricate thin corrugated structures using a single-step stamping process due to their geometrical complexity. To solve this problem, firstly, a plate type heat exchanger was redesigned to attain the optimal value of aspect ratio and the optimal shape of corrugated structures for the actual loading conditions. A forming analysis of the corrugated plate was then carried out to determine the process parameters. From this work, the optimal value of aspect ratio was found to be 4.6. In addition, the process parameters of heat exchanger forming were optimized using the optimal value of aspect ratio, and the analytical results were evaluated through experiments. The results obtained indicated good agreements between them.

This paper evaluates the feasibility of use of high-strength steel for soil-metal corrugated steel structures. Two specifications, the AASHTO(2004) and the CHBDC(2000), were compared and the scientific background of equations for the buckling stability in those specifications were investigated to figure out the governing factors for buckling strength of structures. Numerous finite element analyses for round-pipe type of soil-metal corrugated steel structures were carried out with considering the elastic-plastic relationship of a material and the geometrical non-linearity, as well as the various design variables, such as span length, depths of soil cover, section properties, tensile strength and backfill conditions. Buckling strength equation of the CHBDC(2000) is still valid and conservative for both normal and high-strength steel soil-metal corrugated steel structures, and the buckling strength increases with the use of hight-strengths steel.

Substrate integrated waveguide(SIW) constructed by two metal planes and conductive vias in a dielectric substrate, have all the conductors connected each other and hence, cannot be biased by DC sources. We propose a new folded corrugated substrate integrated waveguide(FCSIW) that can be DC-biased. Since the proposed FCSIW replaces the SIW conducting vias by folded open subs, it can supply the DC sources. The FCSIW has better transmission characteristics and 30 % less width than the common corrugated substrate integrated waveguide(CSIW) having a serious leakage generation problem. The FCSIW shows better insertion loss(1.49 dB) compared with that(3.08 dB) of the CSIW measured for 154 mm length devices and averaged at 9~15 GHz frequency band. No leakage has been observed from crosstalk measurements of the FCSIW.

본 논문의 주된 목적은 농업용 이동로 또는 농업용수의 공급을 위하여 사용되는 파형 강판 파이프아치 암거가 고속도로 및 지방국도를 통과할 때 설계 및 시공 시 요구되는 최소 토피 두께를 제안하는데 있다. 1998년 이후 농업용 목적으로 사용되는 파형 강판 암거는 서해안 고속도로의 건설과 더불어 그 수요량이 증가하였으며, 이에 따른 설계 및 시공의 빈도수 또한 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 이를 뒷받침 할 수 있는 국내 규정은 아직 미약한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 파형 강판 암거의 설계 및 시공 시 고려해야 할 가장 중요한 인자 중 하나인 최소 토피에 대한 연구를 수행하고 그 두께를 제안하였다. 현재 국내 및 미국에서 사용되고 있는 최소 토피 두께는 암거의 스판 길이 또는 스판 길이와 암거의 높이 비율의 관계로부터 정해지는 것으로 구조적인 특성치를 포함하고 있지 않다. 제안된 최소 토피 두께는 암거의 형상적 특성, 설계 하중, 강판의 구조적특성과 손상 등을 반영하여 파형 강판 암거의 안전성을 극대화 하였다. 제안된 토피 두께는 미국과 국내 도로공사에서 규정하고 있는 토피 두께와 비교 분석하였으며, 그 결과 국내 규정이 더욱 안전성을 고려하고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The data for friction factor of the pipe correlated by Reynolds number and relative roughness have been reported well as a Moody chart. However, the results for corrugated shapes have been not investigated sufficiently. In this research, therefore, the pressure drop and friction factor are obtained. Flexible metal tubes with corrugations for the measurement are made of stainless steel plates. The kinds of tubes for the measurement are 5 annular types and helical types. The pressure drop & the velocity of the flow are obtained by micromanometer & digital pressure sensor, supplying dry air at several steps. Then the pressure drop is calculated for each tube, using the obtained data. The result shows that the pressure drop is strongly influenced by the viscous dissipation of kinetic energy due to the circulation of flows, rather than a viscous friction loss. The pressure drop increased consistently as the Reynolds number increases.
