Among various calculation methods for residual stresses, inherent strain method can be useful one for its simplicity. In comparison with finite element method, it is more economical and efficient. First, inherent strain is assumed, and then incompatibility can be calculated from this inherent strain. Based on collocation method, incompatibility equation is solved assuming stress functions which satisfies boundary conditions. Assumed inherent strain can be determined through iterations on the condition that longitudinal residual stress in centerline is yield stress and transverse distortion is the same as predicted one from other method. Calculated results according to this analytic method yield good agreement with experimental ones.

To efficiently demonstrate the molecular motion, physical properties, and mechanical properties of polycarbonates, we studied the differences between bisphenol-A polycarbonate(BPA-PC) and tetramethyl bisphenol-A-polycarbonate(TMBPA-PC) using molecular modeling techniques. To investigate the conformations of BPA-PC and TMBPA-PC and the effect of the conformation on mechanical properties, we performed conformational energy calculation, molecular dynamics calculation, and stress-strain curves based on molecular mechanics method. From the result obtained from conformational energy calculations of each segment, the molecular motions of the carbonate and the phenylene group in BPA-PC were seen to be more vigorous and have lower restriction to mobility than those in TMBPA-PC, respectively. In addition, from the results of radial distribution function, velocity autocorrelation function, and power spectrum, BPA-PC appeared to have higher diffusion constant than TMBPA-PC and is easier to have various conformations because of the less severe restrictions in molecular motion. The result of stress-strain calculation for TMBPA-PC seemed to be in accordance with the experimental value of strain-to-failure ∼4%. From these results of conformational energy calculations of segments, molecular dynamics, and mechanical properties, it can be concluded that TMBPA-PC has higher modulus and brittleness than BPA-PC because the former has no efficient relaxation mode against the external deformations.

A method for the calculation of the combustion pressure of Kick-Motor was proposed, which is based on the circumferential direction strain on the cylinder of Kick-Motor. At first, polynomials which approximate the ratio of strain and Combustion Pressure during Combustion Time was calculated from ground firing tests. Then strain data during flight time was plugged into the polynomials to get Combustion Pressure of the Kick-Motor. Compared with the measured pressure data during flight the converted showed similar trend. Pressure difference between them was about 10psi.

In the seismic design of building structural members, due to the complexity of the placement of PC steels in prestressed concrete members, it is necessary to review and define the definition of member damage in comparison with reinforced concrete members. In this study, the results of past experiments compared with the calculation results by 'section Analysis Method', with the aim of reviewing the precision of calculation results when member damage evaluation is performed using the section analysis method. Furthermore, it is also compared with the calculation results by the 'split Element Method'. In addition, parametric studies were carried out, and the influence of the difference between the amount of PC steels and reinforced bar on the residual strain was examined.

Welding deformations injure the beauty of appearance of a structure, decrease its buckling strength and prevent increase of productivity. Welding deformations of real structures are complicated and the accurate prediction of welding deformations has been a difficult problem. This study proposes a method to predict the welding deformations of large structures accurately and practically based on the simplified thermal elasto-plastic analysis method. The proposed method combines the inherent strain theory with the numerical or theoretical analysis method and the experimental results. The weld joint is assumed to be divided into 3 regions such as inherent strain region, material softening region and base metal region. Characteristic material properties are used in structural modeling and analysis for reasonable simplification. Calculated results by this method show good agreement with the experimental results. It was proven that this method gives an accurate and efficient solution for the problem of welding deformation calculation of large structures.

The Finite Element Method has been employed to calculate the effect of particle size, matrix, and volume fractions on the stress-strain relations of .alpha.-.betha. titanium alloys. It was found that for a given volume fraction, the calculated stress-strain curve was higher for a finer particle size than for a coarse particle size within the range of the strains considered, and this behavior was seen for all the different volume fraction alloys considered. The calculated stress-strain curves for three vol. pct .alpha. alloys were compared with their corresponding experimental curve, and in general, good agreement was found.

In the present study, the existing equivalent stain method is improved to make up for its weaknesses. The improved inherent strain model is built considering more sophisticated three dimensional constraints which are embodied by six cubic elements attached on three sides of a core cubic element. From a few case studies, it is found that the inherent strain is mainly affected by the changes in restraints induced by changes of temperature-dependent material properties of the restraining elements. On the other hand, the degree of restraints is identified to be little influential to the inherent strain. Thus, the effect of temperature gradients over plate thickness and plate transverse direction normal to welding is reflected in the calculation of the inherent strain chart. The welding deformation can be calculated by an elastic FE analysis using the inherent strain values taken from the inherent strain chart.

The Repeated Load Triaxial and Oedometer Tests to the weathered granite & silty clay soil have been fulfilled to investigate their dynarnic characteristics. The results obtained are summarized as follows ; 1. In the relation between the repeated triaxial compression and the oedometer test, the recoverable strain of weathered granite soil showed a tendency to decrease by the increase of the repeated loads number(N), and that of silty clay showed approximately constant values while the total strain increased continuously. 2. The changes of plastic strain was dependent to the level of deviator stress which is the most important element in the calculation of soil deformation under repeated load condition. And there was a significance of 10% between the level of stress and plastic strain. 3. When the soil was aimost dried or saturated to 100%, the deformation by the repeated loads was small. However the deformation showed peak around the saturation of 50%. 4. When the deformation was predicted by the repeated triaxial load tests of a laboratory, it is desirable to introduce the threshold stress concept in the calculation of deformation of subgrade of the pavement. 5. The improved design equation (Eq. 16) introducing the modulus of conversion(Fo), which is based on the Boussineq' s theory, is considered to be rational in the design of flexible pavement. From the above results, the deformation to the repeated traffic loads could be predicted by the repeated triaxial tests on the pavement materials or undisturbed soil layers, therefore it is think that the durable and econornic pavement could be constructed by reflecting that to the design.

The coherent interface energies and misfit strain energies of Fe/XN (X=Ti, Zr, Hf) systems were calculated by first principles method. The interface energies in Fe/TiN, Fe/ZrN and Fe/HfN systems were 0.343, 0.114, and 0.030 $J/m^2$, respectively. Influence of bond energy was estimated using the discrete lattice plane/nearest neighbor broken bond(DLP/NNBB) model. It was found that the dependence of interface energy on the type of nitride was closely related to changes of the bond energies between Fe, X and N atoms before and after formation of the Fe/XN interfaces. The misfit strain energies in Fe/TiN, Fe/ZrN, and Fe/HfN systems were 0.239, 1.229, and 0.955 eV per 16 atoms(Fe; 8 atoms and XN; 8 atoms). More misfit strain energy was generated as the difference of lattice parameters between the bulk Fe and the bulk XNs increased.
