본 연구는 multiloop edgewise arch wire(MEAW)의 기계적 특성을 분석하기 위해, 1) 개별 브라켓간 부위에서의 MEAW의 하중변형률을 수종의 재질로 된 동일 규격의 교정용 호선과 비교하고, 2)개별 브라켓간 부위와 multi-L-loop 부위(측절치 브라켓의 원심연과 제2대구치 튜브의 근심연간의 거리)에서의 wire stiffness를 비교하며, 3)단일 L-loop와 multi-L-loop의 하중변형률에 대한 공학적 이론식을 유도하여 MEAW의 하중변형특성을 규명하고자 시행하였다. 5가지의 서로 다른 수평길이를 지닌 L-loop와 5개의 L-loop로 구성된 상하악의 multi-L-loop를 .$016\times.022$ inch의 stainless steel 강선으로 제작하였고, .$016\times.022$ inch의 Plain stainless steel, TML NiTi를 준비하였다. Instron model 4466 만능시험기에 50N 용량의 load cell을 부착하여 crosshead의 속도 1.0min/분, 브라켓간 부위의 시험시에는 최대변위량 1.0mm로 각 브라켓간격에서 측정하였고, multi-L-loop부위의 경우는 최대변위량 10mm, 42mm의 거리에서 측정하였다. 반복된 실험에 의해 발생할 수 있는 응력에 따른 물리적 성질 변화의 가능성을 배제하기 위해 각 조건마다 동일한 5개의 시편을 사용하였다. 측정된 하중변형률과 각 실험의 브라켓간격을 이용하여 각 브라켓부위에서의 L-loop의 wire stiffness number를 계산하였고 이를 multi-L-loop의 그것과 비교하였다. 5개의 loop로 구성된 multi-L-loop를 35개의 직선구간으로 나누어 각 구간의 에너지를 계산, 총합을 낸 후 가해진 외력으로 미분하여 하중변형률의 이론식을 유도하였으며, 이를 wire stiffness로 환산하여 단일 L-loop의 wire stiffness와 비교하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같았다. 1) 각 브라켓 간격에서의 L-loop의 하중변형률은 평균적으로 stainless steel wire의 1/5.16, NiTi의 1/l.53, TMA의 1/2.47이었다. 2) multi-L-loop부위 에서의 MEAW의 wire stiffness는 개개 브라켓간 간격에서보다 평균 1.53배 더 높았고, 같은 부위에서의 NiTi보다 1.9배 더 높았다. 3) 유도된 하중변형률의 이론식에 따르면, 부위에 따라서 wire stiffness의 차이를 보이지 않는 직선 강선과는 달리, L-loop가 부여된 경우, 개별 L-loop의 ire stiffness는 전체 multi-L-loop의 wire stiffness보다 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과로 미루어 볼 때, MEAW는 개별적인 치아이동을 허용하면서, 가해진 교정력을 효과적으로 전체 치열로 전달할 수 있는 독특한 기계적 특성을 지니고 있는 것으로 생각된다.

This study is performed to investigate the behavior of multi-column piers and to evaluate the seismic performance. In this study, 3 types of scale model piers with 2-column are designed and tested by quasi-static load in both longitudinal and transverse directions. Each type of model consisting of 2 specimens has different reinforcement details in the lap splice of longitudinal bars and amount of transverse reinforcements. This paper reports that relatively large amount of ductility can be achieved by providing sufficient lap-splice length and transverse reinforcements with end hook even if longitudinal bars are lap spliced in the base of pier. But because multi-column piers have small longitudinal stiffness, careful consideration is needed in case of multi-span continuous bridges.

The mechanical behaviors of multi-layered foam core sandwich composite were investigated through a 3-point bending test. The sandwich specimens were obtained from sandwich panel consisting of aluminum faces and urethane foam core. Three types of sandwich specimens such as a single structure, a double structure and a triple structure were considered. The span of sandwich specimens were varied from 170mm to 350mm. According to the results, the flexural and shear properties of multi-layered sandwich composite were found to be higher than those of single-layered sandwich composite.

A mathematical tension model for a moving web in a multi-span web handling system was derived and validated by using a simulator which includes unwinder, driven roller, winder, load cells, controllers, etc. A tension controller was designed to compensate tension disturbances generated by velocity changes of the unwinder and driven roller. From experimental results it was proved that the tension model properly expressed the tension behavior of a moving web for specific conditions. The distributed tension controller designed by using the pole-placement technique compensated the tension disturbances transfered from upsteram tension variation. Interactions between web spans including "tension transfer phenomenon" were clearly confirmed through the study. A mathematical model of lateral motion of a moving web was verified also by using the same experimental apparatus which includes displacement type guidance systems. And a feedforward control strategy was designed for more accurate control of the lateral motion of a moving web, which utilize a measured signal of the lateral displacement of web in a previous span and a more correctly identified mathematical model to estimate the disturbance of lateral motion from the previous span. This approach was turned out to be effective in improving the performance of the guidance system for more wide range disturbances.

Although the strain distribution along the length of a beam in buildings or infrastructures is non-uniform, most fiber optic sensors are point sensors that can measure the strain only at a local point of a beam. Long gage fiber optic sensors that measure integrated strain over a relatively long length can consider strain variation. This type of sensor was found to be efficient and useful for monitoring large-scale structures. On the other hand, the maximum strain or stress in a beam can not be measured with long gage optic sensors. However, for the assessment of the safety of multi-span steel beams subjected to various vertical loads, the maximum strain or stress measured during monitoring is required for comparison with the allowable stress of the beam calculated by a design code. Therefore, in this paper, mathematical models are presented for determination of the maximum values of strains in more three-span steel beams based on the average strains measured by long gage optic sensors.

Section forces of greenhouse structures were studied to suggest basic information for the structural design of greenhouses with respect to roof types and support conditions. Structural analyses were performed for pitched and arched roof, and fixed and hinged support under snow loads and wind loads. Followings are the results obtained and are expected to be useful in determining the span length and roof type in greenhouse design. 1. Special considerations might he required for roof design at the heavy snow region, and for the support design at the strong wind region, respectively. 2. Single-span structure was found to be stronger than multi-span structure under the snow load, but the former was found to be weaker than the latter under the wind load. 3. Arched roof structure was expected to be safer than pitched roof structure if the dimensions and loads were equal. 4. Greenhouse orientation and roof slope should be considered in optimum structural design of grrenhouses, because these two factors are closely related with the influence of wind load and snow load.

Multi-scale model can take both computational efficiency and accuracy into consideration when it is used to conduct elasto-plastic seismic response analysis for complex steel bridges. This paper proposed a method based on pushover analysis of member sharing the same section pattern to verify the accuracy of multi-scale model. A deck-through type steel arch bridge with a span length of 200m was employed for seismic response analysis using multi-scale model and fiber model respectively, the validity and necessity of elasto-plastic seismic analysis for steel bridge by multi-scale model was then verified. The results show that the convergence of load-displacement curves obtained from pushover analysis for members having the same section pattern can be used as a proof of the accuracy of multi-scale model. It is noted that the computational precision of multi-scale model can be guaranteed when length of shell element segment is 1.40 times longer than the width of section where was in compression status. Fiber model can only be used for the predictions of the global deformations and the approximate positions of plastic areas on steel structures. However, it cannot give exact prediction on the distribution of plastic areas and the degree of the plasticity.

This paper presents a technique for electromagnetic field analysis on surge response due to Mid-span back-flashovers effects in lightning protection system of 500 kV EHV single circuit transmission tower by the neural networks method. These analyses are based on modeling lightning return stroke as well as on coupling the electromagnetic fields of the stroke channel to the line. The ground conductivity influences both the electric field as well as the coupling mechanism and hence the magnitude and wave shape of the induced voltage. The technique can be used to analyzed the corona voltage effect, the effective of stroke to the span tower, the surge impedance of transmission lines. The maximum voltage from flashovers effects in the lines. The model is compatible with general electromagnetic transients programs such as the ATP-EMTP. The simulation results show that this study analyses for time-domain with those produced by a cascade multi-section model, the surge impedance of a full-sized tower hit directly by a lightning stroke is discussed.

Identification of damage location based on modal measurement is an important problem in structural health monitoring. The damage index method that attempts to evaluate the changes in modal strain energy distribution has been found to be effective under certain circumstances. In this paper two damage index methods using bending strain energy and shear strain energy have been evaluated for numerous cases at different locations and degrees of damage. The objective is to evaluate the feasibility of the damage index method to localize the damage on large span concrete bridge. Finite element models were used as the test structures. Finally this method was used to predict the damage location in an actual structure, using the results of a modal survey from a large concrete bridge.

On September $11^{th}$ 2001, the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City were struck by two hijacked airplanes. Despite severe local damage induced by the impact, the towers were able to sustain 102 and 56 minutes of the subsequent multi-storey fires before collapsing. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the understanding of the in-fire performance of composite trusses by examining the behaviour of the longer-span type used in the towers. It makes no attempt to be a forensic study of the actual events. Using the finite element package Vulcan, the structural mechanics of typical long-span composite floor trusses are explained, under a variety of scenarios, as the fire temperatures rise. Different boundary conditions, degrees of protection and loading are all covered, the results being presented mainly in the form of graphs of deflection and internal force of members against time.
