A full-scale simulation of steel mill reheating furnace was performed by using parallel computing technology. Turbulent flow as well as chemical reaction is considered and solved in a coupled manner while radiation is also calculated. The movement of slab is taken into account so that a more precise observation of its heating characteristics becomes possible through this numerical analysis.

In this work, a mathematical heat transfer model of a walking-beam type reheating furnace that can predict the formation and growth of the scale layer, which is produced due to oxidative reaction between the furnace oxidizing atmosphere and the steel surface in the reheating furnace, has been developed. The model can also predict the heat flux distribution within the furnace and the temperature distribution in the slab and scale throughout the reheating furnace process by considering the heat exchange between the slab and its surroundings in the furnace, including radiant heat transfer among the slabs, the skids, the hot gases and the furnace wall as well as the gas convection heat transfer in the furnace. Using the model developed in this work, the effects of the scale layer on the heat transfer characteristics and temperature behavior of the slab is investigated. A comparison is also made between the predictions of the present model and the data from an in situ measurement in the furnace, and a reasonable agreement is founded.

The crack problem of continuous casting slab due to the thermal stresses during the reheating process is analyzed using FEM. In this study, the C(t)-integral is calculated. As a result, the values of the C(t)-integral decrease by increasing the initial temperature of the slab and decreasing total heat flux. And those decrease by decreasing the heat flux of pre-heating zone and increasing the heat flux of heating zone.

Numerical analysis code has been developed to investigate the slab heating characteristics in a reheating furnace of a steel mill company. Unsteady 3-Dimensional behaviour can be predicted with the developed code. Premixed flame model is adopted for combustion phenomena and eddy dissipation model is used for turbulent combustion. Non -gray FVM radiation method is used to get a better accurate radiative solution. Slab movement can be fully traced from entrance into a reheating furnace until it#s exit and computation is performed during that period.

Induction Heaters are commonly used in heating steel strip product, because it can rapidly and efficiently heat steel strip/bar. In this study, a inductive heating model is developed and the predictions are compared with measured temperatures. The temperatures are measured from POSCO thin-slab rolling facility (so called Minimill). Induction heater is installed between reduction unit and holding furnace This induction heater raise the temperature of steel bars from $930^{\circ}C$ to about $1100^{\circ}C$ which gives the required temperature for finishing mill process after holding period at holding furnace. Unlike other simple equation models, this model allows us to predict temperature profiles of sections of steel bars.

Thermal Prestressing Method for continuous composite girder bridges is a new design and construction method developed to induce initial composite stresses in the concrete slab at negative bending regions. Due to the induced initial stresses, prevention of tensile cracks at concrete slab, reduction of steel girder section, and reduction of reinforcing bars are possible. Thus, economical and construction efficiency can be improved. Method for determining optimum heating region of Thermal Prestressing Method, has not been established although such method is essential for increasing efficiency of the designing process. Trial-and-error method used in previous studies is far from efficient and more rational method for computing optimal heating region is required. In this study, efficient method for determining optimum heating region in the use of Thermal Prestressing Method is developed based on artificial neural network algorithm, which is widely adopted to pattern recognition, optimization, diagnosis, and estimation problems in various fields. Back-propagation algorithm, which is commonly used as a learning algorithm in neural network problems, is used for training of the neural network. Through case studies of 2-span continuous and 3-span continuous composite girder bridges using the developed process, the optimal heating regions are obtained.

온도프리스트레싱 공법은 강합성거더교 또는 강구조물에 인위적인 온도경사를 가하여 프리스트레싱력을 도입하기 위해 개발된 공법으로, 연속 강합성거더교에 적용할 경우 부모멘트 발생지점인 연속지점부 부근의 바닥판에 프리스트레스를 도입함으로써 콘크리트 바닥판의 인장균열을 억제하는 한편, 교축방향 보강철근 사용량 및 강거더 단면을 감소시킬 수 있어 경제성과 시공성의 향상이 가능한 공법이다. 이전의 연구에서 가열구간을 설정하기 위해 사용한 시행오차법은 비효율적인 것으로 온도프리스트레싱 공법을 적용한 설계가 효율적으로 이루어지기 위해서는 보다 합리적인 적정 가열구간의 설정기법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 패턴인식, 최적화, 진단 및 예측 등을 수행하는데 많이 사용되고 있는 인공신경망 이론을 적용하여 온도프리스트레싱 공법을 적용한 연속 강합성거더교의 가열구간을 효과적이고 경제적으로 설정하는 기법을 제안하고자 한다. 인공신경망 이론을 학습시키기 위한 학습알고리즘으로는 일반적으로 널리 사용되는 오차역전파 알고리즘을 사용하였으며, 이를 이용하여 2경간 및 3경간 연속 강합성거더교의 가열구간을 예측하고 유한요소해석과의 비교를 통하여 학습알고리즘의 특성 및 예측의 정확도를 분석하였다.

Nowadays, It is required human body-friendly, good mechanical properties, and economical efficiency material, simultaneously. The material to meet above requirement condition rear up high nitrogen stainless steel(HNS). However, HNS have a lot of problem such as poor workability, hot crack sensitivity. So, It is needed the condition of plastic working to overcome above many problem. In this study, VIM ingot with 100kg was made by pressurized vacuum induction melting.

Hot rolling process was performed by computer simulation according to change of height reduction, rolling temperature, heating numbers, rolling pass and so forth. The results of analysis were investigated between analysis and lab-scale rolling product.

This paper investigates the progressive collapse behavior of 3D steel-framed gravity buildings under fires with a cooling phase. The effect of fire protections and bracing systems on whether, how, and when a gravity building collapses is studied. It is found that whether a building collapses or not depends on the duration of the heating phase, and it may withstand a "short-hot" fire, but collapses under a mild fire or a "long-cool" fire. The collapse time can be conservatively determined by the time when the temperature of steel columns reaches a critical temperature of 550 ℃. It is also found that the application of a higher level of fire protection may prevent the collapse of a building, but may also lead to its collapse in the cooling phase due to the delayed temperature increment in the heated members. The tensile membrane action in a heated slab can be resisted by a tensile ring around its perimeter or by tensile yielding lines extended to the edge of the frame. It is recommended for practical design that hat bracing systems should be arranged on the whole top floor, and a combination of perimeter and internal vertical bracing systems be used to mitigate the fire-induced collapse of gravity buildings. It is also suggested that beam-to-column connections should be designed to resist high tensile forces (up to yielding force) during the cooling phase of a fire.
