지반재료의 응력-변형률 관계는 다양한 변형률에서 비선형적인 거동을 나타내며 지반 또는 지반구조물의 변형 및 응력예측에 필요하다. 또한 유한요소해석과 같은 수치해석을 위해서는 지반재료의 비선형 특성에 대해 보다 많은 연구가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 시멘트와 플라이애시(비회)로 혼합 강화된 입상지반재료를 대상으로 일축압축시험을 실시하였고, 시험결과에 기초하여 파괴전 비선형 거동을 재현할 수 있는 다양한 응력-변형률 예측모델의 적용성을 평가하기 위하여 정규화된 비선형 응력-변형률 관계를 일반적으로 사용되는 쌍곡선 및 대수, 지수 등과 같은 모형에 적용하여 강화된 입상지반재료의 파괴전 거동을 평가하였다.

Structural analysis of a brake shoe for commercial vehicle was performed using finite element method. Since the strength of a brake shoe is affected by the magnitude and distribution shape of the contact pressure with the drum, the contact pressure between the shoe friction material and drum was calculated using a 2-Dimensional non-linear contact analysis in a state. And the brake was actuated by input air pressure and the drum of it was calculated both stationary and dynamic based on forced torque applied to the drum during the static state analysis. The results of the above analysis were then used as the load boundary conditions for a 3-Dimensional shoe model analysis to determine the maximum strain on the shoes. In the analysis model, the values of tensile test were used for the material properties of the brake shoes and drum, while the values of compression test were used for the friction material. We assumed it as linear variation, even though the properties of friction material were actually non-linear. The experiments were carried out under the same analysis conditions used for fatigue test and under the same brake system which equipped with a brake drum based on the actual axle state in a vehicle. The strains were measured at the same locations where the analysis was performed on the shoes. The obtained results of the experiment matched well with those from the analysis. Consequently, the model used in this study was able to determine the stress at the maximum air pressure at the braking system, thereby a modified shoe model in facilitating was satisfied with the required endurance strength in the vehicle.

초고강도콘크리트의 개발에 따라 철근 압축이음에 대한 연구 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 40여년 전의 연구를 바탕으로 한 현재의 압축이음 설계기준으로는 향상된 강도를 제대로 활용할 수 없으며, 특히 압축이음길이가 인장이음 길이보다 길어지는 기현상(奇現象)이 발생되어 실무의 혼란을 초래하기도 한다. 이러한 현상은 현행 설계기준에서 콘크 리트 강도와 횡보강근의 영향을 고려하지 않기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 51개 실험체의 결과를 바탕으로 40부터 70MPa 까지 콘크리트에 대한 압축이음길이 설계식을 제안하였다. 실험 결과를 통해 도출된 압축이음의 영향 인자들을 분석하 여 이음강도식의 기본형을 만들었다. 실험 결과에 대한 비선형 회귀분석을 통해 압축이음강도 평가식을 마련하고, 5% 분위수 개념을 통해 설계기준이음강도를 설정하고 압축이음길이 설계식을 도출하였다. 이 연구에서 제안된 압축이음길 이 설계식을 이용하여 고강도콘크리트에서 압축이음길이가 인장이음길이보다 길어지는 이상 현상을 해소할 수 있다. 더 불어 제안된 압축이음길이 설계식은 통계적 기법에 기반을 두어 재료강도와 동일한 수준의 신뢰성을 확보할 수 있다.

The study of behavior and values of deformations in the geological medium makes the scientific basis of the methodology of synthesis of true values of parameters of its physico-mechanical and density properties taking into account the influence of geodynamic impacts. The segments of continuous variation of homogeneous elastic uniform deformations are determined under overall compression of the medium. The limits of these segments are defined according to the criteria of instability (on geometric form changes and on "internal" instability). Analytical formulae are obtained to calculate current and limiting (critical) values of deformations within the framework of various variants of small and large initial deformations of the non-classically linearized approach of non-linear elastodynamics. The distribution of deformation becomes non-uniform in the medium while the limiting values of deformations are achieved. The proposed analytical formulae are applicable only within homogeneous distribution of deformations. Numerical experiments are carried out for various elastic potentials. It is found that various forms of instability can precede phase transitions and destruction. The influence of these deformation phenomena should be removed while the physico-mechanical and density parameters of the deformed media are determined. In particular, it is necessary to use the formulae proposed in this paper for this purpose.

This paper presents a proposed method for producing reinforced composite concrete columns reinforced with various types of metallic and non metallic mesh reinforcement. The experimental program includes casting and testing of twelve square columns having the dimensions of $100mm{\times}100mm{\times}1000mm$ under concentric compression loadings. The test samples comprise all designation specimens to make comparative study between conventionally reinforced concrete column and concrete columns reinforced with welded steel mesh, expanded steel mesh, fiber glass mesh and tensar mesh. The main variables are the type of innovative reinforcing materials, metallic or non metallic, the number of layers and volume fraction of reinforcement. The main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of employing the new innovative materials in reinforcing the composite concrete columns. The results of an experimental investigation to examine the effectiveness of these produced columns are reported and discussed including strength, deformation, cracking, and ductility properties. Non-linear finite element analysis; (NLFEA) was carried out to simulate the behavior of the reinforced concrete composite columns. The numerical model could agree the behavior level of the test results. ANSYS-10.0 Software. Also, parametric study is presented to look at the variables that can mainly affect the mechanical behaviors of the model such as the change of column dimensions. The results proved that new reinforced concrete columns can be developed with high strength, crack resistance, and high ductility properties using the innovative composite materials.

본 논문에서는 블록 근사화식을 적응적으로 선택하여 프랙탈 계수를 결정함으로서 기존의 프랙탈 부호화 방법에서 문제가 되는 부호화 시간을 개선하는 방법과 복원 영상의 화질을 향상시킬 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 첫 번째로 부호화 시간을 단축하기 위해 밝기값과 분산에 의해 특성이 결정된 Domain 블록을 선형 리스트로 구성한 후 l차 허용오차 임계치에 의해 블록 탐색 시간을 제어할 수 있게 하였다. 두 번째로 블록 분할 레벨을 3단계로 하여 부호화할 때 최저 분할 레벨의 Range 블록이 만족할 만한 근사화 오차를 갖는 Domain블록을 찾지 못하면 그 블록에 한하여 밝기항을 비선형 변환식으로 새로운 변환 계수를 결정하여 화질을 향상시켰다. 제안한 방법으로 실험한 결과 기존의 부호화 방식보다 부호화 시간은 2배이상 향상되었고 동일한 압축율에서 PSNR값은 1-2dB정도가 향상되었다.

The study of the seismic vulnerability of masonry buildings requires structural properties of walls such as stiffness, ultimate load capacity, etc. In this article, a method is suggested for modeling the masonry walls under in-plane loading. At the outset, a set of analytical equations was established for determining the elastic properties of an equivalent homogeneous material of masonry. The results for homogenized unreinforced brick walls through detailed modeling were compared in different manners such as solid and perforated walls, in-plane and out-of-plane loading, etc, and it was found that this method provides suitable accuracy in estimation of the wall linear properties. Furthermore, comparison of the results of proposed modeling with experimental out coming indicated that this model considers the non linear properties of the wall such as failure pattern, performance curve and ultimate strength, and would be appropriate to establish a parametric study on those prone factors. The proposed model is complicated; therefore, efforts need to be made in order to overcome the convergency problems which will be included in this study. The nonlinear model is basically semi-macro but through a series of actions, it can be simplified to a macro model.

Many novel materials exhibit a property of different elastic moduli in tension and compression. One such material is graphene, a wonder material, which has the highest strength yet measured. Investigations on buckling problems for structures with different moduli are scarce. To address this new problem, firstly, the nondimensional expression of the relation between offset of neutral axis and deflection curve is derived based on the phased integration method, and then using the energy method, load-deflection relation of the rod is determined; Secondly, based on the improved constitutive model for different moduli, large deformation finite element formulations are developed and combined with the arc-length method, finite element iterative program for rods with different moduli is established to obtain buckling critical loads; Thirdly, material mechanical properties tests of graphite, which is the raw material of graphene, are performed to measure the tensile and compressive elastic moduli, moreover, buckling tests are also conducted to investigate the buckling behavior of this kind of graphite rod. By comparing the calculation results of the energy method and finite element method with those of laboratory tests, the analytical model and finite element numerical model are demonstrated to be accurate and reliable. The results show that it may lead to unsafe results if the classic theory was still adopted to determine the buckling loads of those rods composed of a material having different moduli. The proposed models could provide a novel approach for further investigation of non-linear mechanical behavior for other structures with different moduli.

The sealing performance of O-rings is affected by working conditions such as applied pressure, operation temperature, pre-compressed ratio and material properties. In this paper, a pressurized and compressed elastomeric bi-polymer O-ring in which is inserted into a rectangular groove is analyzed by non-linear MARC finite element program based on the Taguchi experimental method. O-rings with 9 different profile models are analyzed for design parameters that are related to the diameter ratio between outer diameter and inner one of bi-polymer O-ring, compressive ratio, groove angle and groove depth. The calculated FEM results showed that the affection ratio of design parameter dlD, which may control sealing pressure of O-rings, is the most influential parameter among the groove angle, groove depth and compression ratio.

The paper deals with a non-linear finite element analysis of the thermomechanical distortions of an elastomeric O-ring seal including a temperature gradient. Axial compression of O-ring seals, as well as the influence of the temperature gradients and various O-ring seal models, are investigated based on the axisymmetric analysis. The highest temperature occurs near the interface of the O-ring between the dovetail groove bottom and the O-ring seal. The calculated FEM results indicate that the composite O-ring with the diametral ratio, 0.8 shows very stable and recommendable compared with other seal models far elevated temperatures and corrosive environments.
