In general, a high tension on the anchor and chain is placed when a ship at anchor is subjected to heavy weather. Mariners have to pay attention to whether dragging anchor occurs to keep the safety of the ship at anchorage since it is difficult to maintain the stable motion of ship and it causes collisions with other ships nearby. In this paper, the ship motion against the external forces was shown to obtain the fundamental data about characteristic of holding power due to nature of seabed at anchor, so practical trials were carried out in rocky area and muddy area using a trial ship around coastal area of South Korea. In muddy seabed, holding power showed reasonable tension values depending on the distance from anchor position of continuing swing motions of a ship corresponding to wind force. Meanwhile in rocky seabed, tension values on the chain appeared very high occasionally regardless of the distance from the anchor position and seemed to exceed its holding power to be the breaking strain of the chain although weather was not in a severe condition. Therefore, some of the cables laid on the seabed were presumed to be caught in a crack on the rock. It is assumed that even a small amount of external force may cause the chain to break in a moment in rocky seabed. Additionally, wind and current forces had a somewhat contradictory effect on holding power of the ship between them.

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) has become an attractive cast-in-place repairing material for existing engineering structures. The present study aims to investigate age-dependent high-early-strength UHPC (HESUHPC) material properties (i.e., compressive strength, elastic modulus, flexural strength, and tensile strength) as well as interfacial shear properties of HESUHPC-normal strength concrete (NSC) composites cured at different season temperatures (i.e., summer, autumn, and winter). The typical temperatures were kept for at least seven days in different seasons from weather forecasting to guarantee an approximately consistent curing and testing condition (i.e., temperature and relative humidity) for specimens at different ages. The HESUHPC material properties are tested through standardized testing methods, and the interfacial bond performance is tested through a bi-surface shear testing method. The test results quantify the positive development of HESUHPC material properties at the early age, and the increasing amplitude decreases from summer to winter. Three-day mechanical properties in winter (with the lowest curing temperature) still gain more than 60% of the 28-day mechanical properties, and the impact of season temperatures becomes small at the later age. The HESUHPC shrinkage mainly occurs at the early age, and the final shrinkage value is not significant. The HESUHPC-NSC interface exhibits sound shear performance, the interface in most specimens does not fail, and most interfacial shear strengths are higher than the NSC-NSC composite. The HESUHPC-NSC composites at the shear failure do not exhibit a large relative slip and present a significant brittleness at the failure. The typical failures are characterized by thin-layer NSC debonding near the interface, and NSC pure shear failure. Two load-slip development patterns, and two types of main crack location are identified for the HESUHPC-NSC composites tested in different ages and seasons. In addition, shear capacity of the HESUHPC-NSC composite develops rapidly at the early age, and the increasing amplitude decreases as the season temperature decreases. This study will promote the HESUHPC application in practical engineering as a cast-in-place repairing material subjected to different natural environments.

A new clamped mechanical splice system was proposed to develop structural performance and constructability for precast concrete connections. The proposed mechanical splice resists external loading immediately after the engagement. The mechanical splices applicable for both large-scale rebars for plants and small-scale rebars for buildings were developed with the same design concept. Quasi-static lateral cyclic loading tests were conducted with reinforced and precast concrete members to verify the seismic performance. Also, shaking table tests with three types of seismic wave excitation, 1) random wave with white noise, 2) the 2016 Gyeongju earthquake, and 3) the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake, were conducted to confirm the dynamic performance. All tests were performed with real-scale concrete specimens. Sensors measured the lateral load, acceleration, displacement, crack pattern, and secant system stiffness, and energy dissipation was determined by lateral load-displacement relation. As a result, the precast specimen provided the emulative performance with RC. In the shaking table tests, PC frames' maximum acceleration and displacement response were amplified 1.57 - 2.85 and 2.20 - 2.92 times compared to the ground motions. The precast specimens utilizing clamped mechanical splice showed ductile behavior with energy dissipation capacity against strong motion earthquakes.

Utilization of high-voltage electrolyte additive(s) at a small fraction is a cost-effective strategy for a good solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation and performance improvement of a lithium-rich layered oxide-based high-energy lithium-ion cell by avoiding the occurrence of metal-dissolution that is one of the failure modes. To mitigate metal-dissolution, we explored fluorinated dual-additives of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) and di(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)carbonate (DFDEC) for building-up of a good SEI in a 4.7 V full-cell that consists of high-capacity silicon-graphite composite (15 wt% Si/C/CF/C-graphite) anode and Li_1.13Mn_0.463Ni_0.203Co_0.203O₂ (LMNC) cathode. The full-cell including optimum fractions of dual-additives shows increased capacity to 228 mAhg^-1 at 0.2C and improved performance from the one in the base electrolyte. Surface analysis results find that the SEI stabilization of LMNC cathode induced by dual-additives leads to a suppression of soluble Mn²⁺-O formation at cathode surface, mitigating metal-dissolution event and crack formation as well as structural degradation. The SEI and structure of Si/C/CF/C-graphite anode is also stabilized by the effects of dual-additives, contributing to performance improvement. The data give insight into a basic understanding of cathode-electrolyte and anode-electrolyte interfacial processes and cathode-anode interaction that are critical factors affecting full-cell performance.

The time-reversal method is employed to improve the ability of pipeline defect detection, and a new approach of identifying the pipeline defect depth is proposed in this research. When the L(0,2) mode ultrasonic guided wave excited through a lead zirconate titinate (PZT) transduce array propagates along the pipeline with a defect, it will interact with the defect and be partially converted to flexural F(n, m) modes and longitudinal L(0,1) mode. Using a receiving PZT array attached axisymmetrically around the pipeline, the L(0,2) reflection signal as well as the mode conversion signals at the defect are obtained. An appropriate rectangle window is used to intercept the L(0,2) reflection signal and the mode conversion signals from the obtained direct detection signals. The intercepted signals are time reversed and re-excited in the pipeline again, result in the guided wave energy focusing on the pipeline defect, the L(0,2) reflection and the L(0,1) mode conversion signals being enhanced to a higher level, especially for the small defect in the early crack stage. Besides the L(0,2) reflection signal, the L(0,1) mode conversion signal also contains useful pipeline defect information. It is possible to identify the pipeline defect depth by monitoring the variation trend of L(0,2) and L(0,1) reflection coefficients. The finite element method (FEM) simulation and experiment results are given in the paper, the enhancement of pipeline defect reflection signals by time-reversal method is obvious, and the way to identify pipeline defect depth is demonstrated to be effective.

비내진상세 골조는 낮은 횡저항성을 가지고 있어 큰 변형을 경험하게 되는 반면, 벽체는 높은 강성으로 인해 낮은 변형에서도 전단에 의해 파괴된다. 따라서 이러한 골조와 벽체가 동시에 거동할 경우 발생하는 거동 특성은 개개 부재에서의 거동특성과 매우 다르게 된다. 본 연구에서는 끼움벽에 노치를 둘 경우 내진거동특성을 평가하고자 배근상세를 변수로 하였다. 이 때 노치로 인해 벽체 중앙부에 손상이 집중되는 것을 방지하기 위하여 변형경화형 시멘트 복합체(SHCC)를 사용하였다. 실험결과, SHCC 끼움벽은 다수의 미세균열을 형성하였으나, 대각보강근을 갖는 PIW-ND 실험체가 PIW-NC 실험체에 비해 낮은 변형능력, 강성 및 에너지소산능력을 보였다.

Punching shear is a brittle failure that occurs within the RC flat slabs where stresses are concentrated within small regions, resulting in a catastrophic and unfavorable progressive collapse. However, increasing the slab slenderness ratio is believed to significantly affect the slab's behavior by the induced strain values throughout the slab depth. This study examines the punching shear behavior of flat slabs by the nonlinear finite element analysis approach using ABAQUS software, where 72 models were investigated. The parametric study includes the effect of opening existence, opening-to-column ratio (O/C), temperature level, slenderness ratio (L/d), and flexural reinforcement rebar diameter. The behavior of the punching shear failure was fully examined under elevated temperatures which was not previously considered in detail along with the combined effect of the other sensitive parameters (opening size, slab slenderness, and reinforcement rebar size). It has been realized that increasing the slab slenderness has a major role in affecting the slab's structural behavior, besides the effect of the flexural reinforcement ratio. Reducing the slab's slenderness from 18.27 to 5.37 increased the cracking load by seven times for the slab without openings compared to nine times for the initial stiffness value. In addition, the toughness capacity is reduced up to 80% upon creating an opening, where the percentage is further increased by increasing the opening size by about an additional 10%. Finally, the ultimate deflection capacity of flat slabs with an opening is increased compared to the solid slab with the enhancement being increased for openings of larger size, larger depths, and higher exposure temperature.

본 연구에서는 TBM 터널 SFRC 세그먼트 개발을 위하여 이형철근이 보강되지 않은 SFRC 보의 휨파괴 실험을 통하여 SFRC 배합의 평가를 수행하였다. 압축강도, 강섬유의 형상비와 강섬유 혼입률을 변수로 하여 총 16개의 SFRC 보를 제작하고 휨에 의하여 파괴시까지 실험하였다. 하중-수직변위 분석결과, 큰 형상비의 강섬유를 사용하여도 소형보의 실험(Moon et al, 2013)과 달리 보의 인성거동을 증진시키는 효과는 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 극한상태에서 강섬유는 균열폭 7 mm까지 하중을 저항하는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 기존의 SFRC 보의 휨강도예측모델과 실험결과를 비교한 결과, SFRC 보의 휨강도를 최대 20배까지 과소평가하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, TR No. 63 모델(Concrete Society, 2011)은 다른 모델에 비하여 근사하게 휨강도를 예측하는 것으로 확인되었다. 강섬유의 분포에 대한 분석결과, 소형보에서 보다 실제 규모의 보에서 강섬유의 분산도가 훨씬 개선되는 것을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 $30^{\circ}$ 경사진 층리면을 가진 풍화암 물성의 이방성 암반에서 필러 폭이 0.5D와 0.25D로 매우 작은 근접병설터널을 시공할 경우에 대한 터널 안정성을 조사하였다. 이를 위해 터널간 이격거리와 지보조건이 서로 다른 6가지 모형을 제작하고 측압계수 1의 하중조건으로 축소모형실험을 실시하였다. 모형별 균열개시압력, 최대압력, 필러 및 터널의 변형거동을 조사하였으며, 복공지보와 필러보강 여부가 터널의 안정성에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 필러 폭이 큰 모형일수록 균열개시압력이 더 크게 나타나 터널 안정성은 증가하였으며, 복공지보를 설치한 모형은 무지보 모형에 비해 균열개시압력와 최대압력이 더 크고 내공단면의 변형량은 적어 풍화암 근접병설터널에서 복공지보의 필요성을 확인하였다. 복공지보와 더불어 필러보강을 실시한 모형은 다른 모형에 비해 터널 안정성이 더 크게 나타났으며, 특히 필러 폭 0.25D인 근접병설터널은 복공지보뿐 아니라 필러보강도 실시해야 터널 안정성이 확보됨을 알 수 있었다.
