본 연구는 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 화강암과 콘크리트의 부착면에서의 전단거동을 이해하려는 데 있다. 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 전단거동을 실내에서 실험하기 위해서는 현장에서의 전단거동을 모델링 해야 한다. 따라서, 말뚝의 축방향 대칭성을 고려해 암반에 근입된 전단면을 2차원으로 모델링함으로써 일정수직강성도(conctant normal stiffness; CNS) 조건의 전단시험을 실시할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 국내 화강암을 대상으로 거칠기, 암의 강도, 응력경계조건 등을 고려하여 암-콘크리트 접촉부에 대한 일정수직강성도 전단시험을 수행하였다. 실험결과 각 변수(요철부의 경사각 및 높이, 수직강성도)에 따른 전단특성(첨두전단강도, 전단응력, 수직응력)은 물론 팽창현상(dilation) 등을 관찰할 수 있었다. 시험결과에 따르면 첨두 전단강도는 요철부의 경사각이 증가할수록, 그리고 수직강성도가 증가할 수록 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 팽창량은 요철부의 각도가 클수록 수직강성도가 작을수록 크게 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 주면하중전이특성을 분석하기 위하여, 주요 영향요소(일축압축강도, 거칠기, 수직강성, 초기구속응력, 재료성질)에 따라 일정수직강성(Constant Normal Stiffness, CNS)조건의 직접전단시험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 주변하중전이특성을 3구간으로 이상화할 수 있었으며, 각 구간에서의 거동을 지배하는 주요 요소의 영향 및 그에 따른 거동을 파악할 수 있었다. 이를 토대로 암반의 절리 및 풍화상태를 나타내는 GSI(Geological Strength Index)를 이용한 Hoek-Brown 파괴기준(1997)을 적용하여, 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 굴착면 거칠기를 고려한 새로운 주면 하중전이함수를 제안하였다. 제안된 하중전이함수는 기존 7본의 말뚝 재하시험 결과와 비교분석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 본 제안식이 암반 굴착면의 거칠기 및 암반특성을 적절히 반영함을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a method for evaluation of varying stiffness coefficients of tailored conical shells (TCS). Furthermore, a comparison between buckling loads of these shells under axial load with the different fiber path is performed. A circular truncated conical shell subjected to axial compression is taken into account. Three different theoretical path containing geodesic path, constant curvature path and constant angle path has been considered to describe the angle variation along the cone length, along cone generator of a conical shell are offered. In the TCS with the arbitrary fiber path, the thickness and the ply orientation are assumed to be functions of the shell coordinates and influencing stiffness coefficients of the structure. The stiffness coefficients and the buckling loads of shells are calculated basing on classical shells theory (CST) and using finite-element analysis (FEA) software. The obtained results for TCS with arbitrary fiber path, thickness and ply orientation are derived as functions of shell longitudinal coordinate and influencing stiffness coefficients of structures. Furthermore, the buckling loads based on fiber path and ply orientation at the start of tailored fiber get to be different. The extent of difference for tailored fiber with start angle lower than 20 degrees is not significant. The results in this paper show that using tailored fiber placement could be applied for producing conical shells in order to have greater buckling strengths and lower weight. This work demonstrates the use of fiber path definitions for calculated stiffness coefficients and buckling loads of conical shells.

Spring-like leg models have been employed to explain various dynamic characteristics in human walking. However, this leg stiffness model has limitations to represent complex motion of actual human gait, especially the behaviors of each lower limb joint. The purpose of this research was to determine changes of total leg stiffness and lower limb joint stiffness with gait speed in knee osteoarthritis. Joint stiffness defined as the ratio of the joint torque change to the angular displacement change. Eight subjects with knee osteoarthritis participated to this study. The subject walked on a 12 m long and 1 m wide walkway with three sets of four different randomly ordered gait speeds, ranging from their self-selected speed to maximum speed. Kinetic and kinematic data were measured using three force plates and an optical marker system, respectively. Joint torques of lower limb joints calculated by a multi-segment inverse dynamics model. Total leg and each lower limb joint had constant stiffness during single support phase. The leg and hip joint stiffness increased with gait speed. The correlation between knee joint angles and torques had significant changed by the degree of severity of knee osteoarthritis.

A previously proposed finite element formulation method is refined and modified to generate a new type of elements. The method is based on selecting a set of general solution modes for element formulation. The constant strain modes and higher order modes are selected and the formulation method is designed to ensure that the element will pass the basic single element test, which in turn ensures the passage of the basic patch test. If the element is to pass the higher order patch test also, the element stiffness matrix is in general asymmetric. The element stiffness matrix depends only on a nodal displacement matrix and a nodal force matrix. A symmetric stiffness matrix can be obtained by either modifying the nodal displacement matrix or the nodal force matrix. It is shown that both modifications lead to the same new element, which is demonstrated through numerical examples to be more robust than an assumed stress hybrid element in plane stress application. The method of formulation can also be used to arrive at the conforming displacement and hybrid stress formulations. The convergence of the latter two is explained from the point of view of the proposed method.

The wave washer springs are widely used in non-return valves of fluid, especially in air check valves to confirm the rapid shut-off of valve propers. The stiffness of wave washer springs used in suction and exhaust valves of reciprocating air compressor play an important role on efficiency of the compressor. If the stiffness of the spring is too high, the pressure differences necessary to open the valves become high and the volumetric efficiency of cylinder decreasse. If the stiffness of the spring too low, the valve can not be closed rapidly and the inverse flow of air can take place. So, the optimum stiffness of valve spring is very important and it will be very helpful that the stiffness of wave washer springs to be used in suction and exhaust valves can be calculated in design stage of air compressor. In this paper the formula for calculating the spring constant of wave washer spring is introduced using bending and torsion theory of frames. The experiments are also carried out to measure the spring constants of several samples. It is proven that the calculated spring constants of wave washer springs are coincided well with measured values and that the formula presented in this paper for calculating the spring constants of wave washer spring is very useful for design of valves used in reciprocating air compressor.

In this paper we consider the hp-version to solve non-constant coefficients elliptic equations on a bounded, convex polygonal domain ${\Omega}$ in $R^2$. A family $G_p=\{I_m\}$ of numerical quadrature rules satisfying certain properties can be used for calculating the integrals. When the numerical quadrature rules $I_m{\in}G_p$ are used for computing the integrals in the stiffness matrix of the variational form we will give its variational form and derive an error estimate of ${\parallel}u-{\widetilde{u}}^h_p{\parallel}_{1,{\Omega}$.

It was the purpose of this study to analyze and compare the mechanical properties of ortho dontic open coil springs. Four variable factors were presented - wire diameter (.008", .009", .010"), lumen size (.030", .032", .036"), arch wire size and shape (.016" round, $ .016^{{\prime}{\prime}}{\times}.022^{{\prime}{\prime}}$ rect.) and alloy type (HiT II, Elgiloy, Sentalloy). The total 104 specimens were divided into 13 groups, and compression test was performed on an Instron test machine. The load deflection curve of each open coil spring was obtained, from which, the load-deflection relations, stiffnesses, percent recoveries were computed statistically. The results were obtained as follows: 1. When the lumen size of the coil spring remained constant, stiffness and percent recovery increased as the wire diameter increased. 2. When the wire diameter of the coil spring remained constant, stiffness and percent recovery decreased as the lumen size increased. 3. The effect of size and shape of arch wire on the coil spring was not statistically significant. 4. In alloy types, stiffness was the greatest in HiT II (55.21), Elgiloy (42.61) and Sentalloy (7.74) in that order. Sentalloy exhibited superior percent recovery and long range of action.

본 연구에서는 Sine 파형 복부판을 갖는 I형 플레이트 거더의 비틂 상수와 �� 상수식을 제안한다. Sine 파형 복부판을 갖는 플레이트 거더는 일반적으로 기하학적 특성에 따라 높은 면외 방향 강성 및 전단강도, 비틂 강성을 갖는다. 특히, 플레이트 I형 거더의 횡-비틂 강도를 산정하는 데 있어서 부재 단면의 비틂 상수 및 �� 상수는 큰 영향을 미치는데, 종래의 수식으로는 Sine 파형 복부판의 이러한 단면상수를 합리적으로 산정하는 데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Sine 파형 복부판의 기하학적 특성을 반영할 수 있는 새로운 제안식을 연구하였다. 쉘 요소를 사용한 I형 플레이트 거더의 순수 비틂 거동에 대한 유한요소해석결과를 통해 파형의 기하학적 특성에 따른 비틂 상수 변화를 분석하고 이를 회귀분석하여 수식을 제안하였다. 이후, 순수 비틂과 �� 비틂이 함께 존재하는 조건에서의 유한요소해석 결과를 통해 �� 상수 계산식을 제안하였다. 이 두 제안식은 단순 지지된 Sine 파형 복부판을 갖는 I형 플레이트 거더의 횡-비틂 좌굴해석 결과를 토대로 검증되었다. 본 연구에서 제안한 두 수식을 통해 Sine 파형 복부판을 갖는 I형 플레이트 거더의 중요한 두 단면 상수를 명확히 계산할 수 있고, 이를 통해 정확한 횡-비틂 좌굴 강도를 손쉽게 계산할 수 있다.

The purpose of this paper is to develope an understanding of fundamental mechanism of shear behaviour between granite and concrete interfaces. The interface of pile socketed in rock can be modeled in laboratory tests by resolving the axisymmetric pile situation into the two dimensional situation under CNS(constant normal stiffness) direct shear condition. In this paper, the granite core samples were used to simulate the interface condition of piles socketed In granite. The samples were prepared in the laboratory to simulate field condition, roughness(angle, height), stress boundary condition, and then tested by CNS direct shear tests. This paper gives some points about shearing behaviour of socket piles into domestic granite through the analysis of CNS tests results.
