In this paper, the mooring system for a floating wave energy farm is designed based on a two-dimensional analysis. The mooring system uses an anchorless mooring line linking two floaters in a floating wave energy farm. The basic equation to determine the length of the mooring line between the two floaters is proposed. The other properties such as the diameter and pretension are taken from the mooring line for a single floater. The dynamic behavior and safety of the designed mooring system under extreme ocean conditions are analyzed with the commercial software Orcaflex. A numerical study shows the stability and high safety in tension of the designed mooring lines for a floating wave energy farm. The proposed anchorless mooring system for a floating wave energy farm results in a considerable reduction in the length of the mooring line, contributing to the economics of a floating wave energy farm.

The random vibration of saddle membrane structures under wind load is studied theoretically and experimentally. First, the nonlinear random vibration differential equations of saddle membrane structures under wind loads are established based on von Karman's large deflection theory, thin shell theory and potential flow theory. The probabilistic density function (PDF) and its corresponding statistical parameters of the displacement response of membrane structure are obtained by using the diffusion process theory and the Fokker Planck Kolmogorov equation method (FPK) to solve the equation. Furthermore, a wind tunnel test is carried out to obtain the displacement time history data of the test model under wind load, and the statistical characteristics of the displacement time history of the prototype model are obtained by similarity theory and probability statistics method. Finally, the rationality of the theoretical model is verified by comparing the experimental model with the theoretical model. The results show that the theoretical model agrees with the experimental model, and the random vibration response can be effectively reduced by increasing the initial pretension force and the rise-span ratio within a certain range. The research methods can provide a theoretical reference for the random vibration of the membrane structure, and also be the foundation of structural reliability of membrane structure based on wind-induced response.

CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer) 긴장재는 PC 강연선의 부식문제를 해결하기 위해 대안으로 사용될 수 있다. CFRP 긴장재를 콘크리트구조물에 적용하기 위해서는 부착강도, 전달길이, 정착길이와 같은 재료적 특성이 명확히 결정되어야 한다. 특히 프리텐션 콘크리트 부재에 CFRP 긴장재가 적용될 경우 전달길이는 긴장력 도입에 있어서 중요한 요소가 된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 CFRP 전달길이 및 정착길이를 산정하기 위해 프리텐션 보 9개를 제작하였다. 전달길이 실험결과, 긴장력 25%인 경우는 34D, 긴장력 50%인 경우는 55D로 측정되었고, 긴장력이 커지면 전달길이가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 시간경과에 따른 전달길이 변화를 살펴보면, 긴장력의 크기에 따라 시간경과가 전달길이에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 보강재 특성계수 산정 결과, 본 연구에서 개발된 CFRP 긴장재의 보강재-특성 계수 ${\alpha}_t$는 2.3으로 PS강연선 (${\alpha}_t=2.4$)과 비슷한 것으로 나타났다.

The tension leg platform (TLP) is one of the compliant structures which are generally used for deep water oil exploration. With respect to the horizontal degrees of freedom, it behaves like a floating structure moored by vertical tethers which are pretension due to the excess buoyancy of the platform, whereas with respect to the vertical degrees of freedom, it is stiff and resembles a fixed structure and is not allowed to float freely. In the current study, a numerical study for square TLP using modified Morison equation was carried out in the time domain with water particle kinematics using Airy's linear wave theory to investigate the effect of changing the tether tension force on the stiffness matrix of TLP's, the dynamic behavior of TLP's; and on the fatigue stresses in the cables. The effect was investigated for different parameters of the hydrodynamic forces such as wave periods, and wave heights. The numerical study takes into consideration the effect of coupling between various degrees of freedom. The stiffness of the TLP was derived from a combination of hydrostatic restoring forces and restoring forces due to cables. Nonlinear equation was solved using Newmark's beta integration method. Only uni-directional waves in the surge direction was considered in the analysis. It was found that for short wave periods (i.e., 10 sec.), the surge response consisted of small amplitude oscillations about a displaced position that is significantly dependent on tether tension force, wave height; whereas for longer wave periods, the surge response showed high amplitude oscillations that is significantly dependent on wave height, and that special attention should be given to tethers fatigue because of their high tensile static and dynamic stress.

본 논문에서는 지반 내 보강재를 삽입하여 원지반 전체의 전단강도와 활동저항력을 증가시켜주는 네일링에 프리스트레스를 가할 수 있는 PC강연선을 결합한 앵커형 네일에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 앵커형 네일의 거동특성을 확인하기 위하여 무보강, 네일링, 앵커형 네일 각각에 대하여 실내모형실험과 수치해석을 수행하여 하중-변위, 벽체변위 등을 분석하였다. 실내모형실험결과 프리텐션을 가한 앵커형 네일의 경우 일반네일과 비교할 때 하중증가에 따른 수평변위량이 크게 감소되는 것이 확인되었으며, 특히 벽체상부의 변위 억제력이 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 이를 확인하기 위한 수치해석결과도 실내모형실험과 유사한 해석결과를 나타내었다.

본 논문에서는 프리텐션된 고강도 콘크리트 부재에서의 전달길이를 측정하기 위해 FBG 센서가 기입된 스마트 강연선을 활용하여 실험을 수행하였다. 전달길이 측정을 위해 길이 3m, 단면 $150{\times}150mm$의 고강도 콘크리트 시험체를 총 5개 제작하였으며, 프리텐션 도입 시 콘크리트 압축강도는 58MPa로 측정되었다. 실험 결과 콘크리트 표면에 부착하는 기존의 전기 저항식 게이지보다 FBG 센서로부터 보다 정밀하고 신뢰성있는 강연선의 전달길이를 계측할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 계측결과로부터 산정된 강연선 전달길이를 기존의 여러 모델들과 비교하였으며, 이를 통해 고강도 콘크리트 부재에서의 전달길이 산정에 대한 기존 모델들의 적용성을 분석하였다. 본 연구 내용은 향후 강연선의 부착 특성 분석 등의 관련 분야 연구 등에 유용할 것으로 기대된다.

The use of diverse methods for the retaining system has been continuously increased in order to maintain the stability during excavation. However, ground anchor system occasionally may have the restriction in urban excavation sites nearby the existing structures because of space limitation. In this case, soil nailing system with relatively short length of nails could be efficiently useful as an alternative method. The general soil nailing support system, however, may result in excessive deformations particularly in excavating the zone of weak soils or nearby the existing structures. Therefore, applying the pretension force to the soil nails then could play important roles to reduce deformations mainly in an upper part of the nailed-soil excavation system as well as to improve the local slope stability. In this study, a newly modified soil nailing technology named as the PSN(Pretention Soil Nailing) is developed to reduce both facing displacements and ground surface settlements during top-down excavation process as well as to increase the global slope stability. Up to now, the PSN system has been investigated mainly focusing on an establishment of the design procedure. In the present study, the field tests including pull-out tests were fulfilled to investigate the behavior of characteristics for PSN system. All results of tests were also analyzed to provide a fundamental and efficient design.

The paper presents the details and results of an experimental study on bolted end-plate joints of industrial type steel building frames. The investigated joints are commonly used in Lindab-Astron industrial buildings and are optimized for manufacturing, erection and durability. The aim of the research was to provide an experimental background for the design model development by studying load-bearing capacity of joints, bolt force distribution, and end-plate deformations. Because of the special joint details, (i.e., joints with four bolts in one bolt-row and HammerHead arrangements), the Eurocode 3 standardized component model had to be improved and extended. The experimental programme included six different end-plate and bolt arrangements and covered sixteen specimens. The steel grade of test specimens was S355, the bolt diameter M20, whereas the bolt grade was 8.8 and 10.9 for the two series. The end-plate thickness varied between 12 mm and 24 mm. The specimens were investigated under pure bending conditions using a four-point-bending test arrangement. In all tests the typical displacements and the bolt force distribution were measured. The end-plate plastic deformations were measured after the tests by an automatic measuring device. The measured data were presented and evaluated by the moment-bolt-row force and moment-distance from centre of compression diagrams and by the deformed end-plate surfaces. From the results the typical failure modes and the joint behaviour were specified and presented. Furthermore the influence of the end-plate thickness and the pretension of the bolts on the behaviour of bolted joints were analysed.

이 논문에서는 긴장력 도입을 위한 강선의 용접절단순서가 강선의 변형률과 콘크리트 응력에 미치는 영향 을 실험과 유한요소해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 실험에서는 각각 다른 3개의 용접절단순서에 따른 강선과 횡방향 보강 철 근의 변형률 변화를 계측하였다. 해석에서는 실험과 동일한 조건에 대한 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과를 실험 결과와 비교·고찰하였다. 연구 결과, 강선의 변형률과 횡방향 보강근의 변형률이 긴장재의 절단순서에 따라 다른 결과 를 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 이 결과는 해석을 통하여도 검증되었다. 따라서 프리스트레스 구조물의 시공시 구 조특성에 따라 적절한 절단순서의 조절이 고려되어야 한다.
