In recent years, the crack accidents of earth and rockfill dams occur frequently. It is urgent to study the tensile strength and tensile failure mechanism of the gravelly soil in the core for the anti-crack design of the actual high earth core rockfill dam. Based on the self-developed uniaxial tensile test device, a series of uniaxial tensile test was carried out on gravelly soil with different gravel content. The compaction test shows a good linear relationship between the optimum water content and gravel content, and the relation curve of optimum water content versus maximum dry density can be fitting by two times polynomial. For the gravelly soil under its optimum water content and maximum dry density, as the gravel content increased from 0% to 50%, the tensile strength of specimens decreased from 122.6 kPa to 49.8 kPa linearly. The peak tensile strain and ultimate tensile strain all decrease with the increase of the gravel content. From the analysis of fracture energy, it is proved that the tensile capacity of gravelly soil decreases slightly with the increasing gravel content. In the case that the sample under the maximum dry density and the water content higher than the optimum water content, the comprehensive tensile capacity of the sample is the strongest. The relevant test results can provide support for the anti-crack design of the high earth core rockfill dam.

횡등방성 암석의 인장강도 특성 해석을 위하여 새로운 이방성 인장파괴함수를 제안하였다. 제안된 함수에서 인장강도는 연약면과 수직한 방향에서 최소가 되며 연약면과 평행한 방향쪽으로 지수함수적으로 증가하면서 최대값에 수렴된다. 제안된 이방성 인장파괴함수는 실험적으로 측정이 가능한 3개의 강도정수로 정의된다. 제안된 함수를 임계면법에 적용하여 연약면의 방향성에 따른 횡등방성 암석의 인장강도 및 파괴면의 방향을 탐색할 수 있는 수치해석적 기법을 제시하였다. 문헌에 보고된 횡등방성 암석의 직접인장시험 결과를 모사함으로써 제안된 방법의 적합성을 검토하였다. 수치해석결과와 직접인장시험 결과는 전반적으로 유사한 결과를 보여주었다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of admixtures as blast-furnace slag(BF) and fly ash(FA) on tensile and adhesive properties of polymer cement mortar(PCM) with EVA emulsion. The test specimens are prepared with five polymer-cement ratio(P/C) and five admixture contents, and tested for tensile strength and adhesion in tension. From the test results, the tensile strength and adhesion in tension could be improved by an appropriate combination of P/C and admixture contents. In particular, the maximum of tensile strength of PCM with P/C 10% and BF content of 10% is 4.70MPa which is about 1.55 times higher than that of plain mortar, and about 1.22 times that of PCM that does not contain any mixture. The ratio of adhesion in tension to tensile strength of PCM with admixtures averaged 55.8%. It is also apparent that admixture contents of 5% or 10% could be proposed for improvement of tensile strength and adhesion in tension of PCM.

동적 인장강도를 평가하기 위해 수치해석기법을 이용하여 홉킨슨효과를 가정한 동적 인장시험의 암석 파쇄 과정을 해석하였다. 동적 인장 파쇄 과정과 정적 인장 파쇄 과정에 명확한 차이가 있음을 밝혔으며, 동적 인장강도와 정적 인장강도의 상위는 응력집중현상과 응력재분배에 의해 발생된다는 것을 지적하였다. 그러나 정적파쇄와 동적파쇄 과정에 큰 차이가 있음에도 불구하고 정적 인장강도와 동적 인장강도는 미시적 인장강도의 균질성 계수가 증가함에 따라 미시적 인장강도의 평균치에 근접하였다. 본 연구로부터 암석의 불균질성은 동적 인장강도에 영향을 미치는 요인이며, 동적 인장강도와 정적 인장강도의 상위를 발생시키는 중요한 요인임을 지적하였다.

낮은 응력 단계에서 모래의 인장강도는 포화도 또는 흡입력에 따라 증가하다. 최대값에 도달한 후 감소한다. 최대인 장강도는 어느 포화도에서든 발생될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 습윤 모래의 인장강도를 정확히 예측할 수 있는 이론이 제시되었다. 이 이론은 닫힌 형태의 식으로 pendular, funicular, capillary 세 가지로 구분되는 함수특성곡선 전체 영역을 하나로 통일하여 표현하였다. 낮은 응력 단계에서 내부마찰각 ${\phi}_t$, 공기침투압(air entry pressure)의 역수값 ${\alpha}$, 간극크기범위변수(pore size spectrum parameter) n 등 세 가지 변수가 이론에 사용되었다. 공기침투압 역수값이 최대인장강도를 지배하는 주 요인으로 작용하고, 최대인장강도가 발생될 때 포화도는 오직 간극크기범위변수에만 의존한다.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the relative effects of specific gravity and particle size on internal bond and tensile strengths and fracture toughness of particleboard and to compare mechanical strength with fracture toughness. The particleboard was manufactured with three different particle sizes at specific gravity levels of 0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 with a resin content of 10% based on oven dry weight. The results were summarized as follows: 1. Internal bond strength. fracture toughness in internal bond test. maximum tensile strength, and fracture toughness in tension test increased with the increase of specific gravity of particleboard. 2. As partcle size increased, internal bond strength, fracture toughness. maximum tensile strength. and fracture toughness in tension test increased. 3. The maximum tensile strength and fracture toughness appeared to be in a direct relationship, and then maximum tensile strength could be used for predicition of fracture toughness for tension test. 4. The fracture toughness in internal bond test was somewhat independent on induced crack length.

The use of high tensile steel plates is increasing in the fabrication of ship and offshore structures. The softening region which has lower yield stress than base metal is located to prevent cracking in the conventional high tensile steel. Also, thermo mechanical control process(TMCP) steel with low carbon equivalent has the softening region which occurs in the heat affected zone when high heat input weld is carried out. The softening region in the high tensile steel gives rise to serious effect on structural strength such as tensile strength, fatigue strength and ultimate strength. In order to make a reliable structural design using high tensile steel plates, the influence of the softening on plate strength should be evaluated in advance. In the previous paper, the authors discussed the ultimate compressive strength of 50HT steel square plates with softening region. In this paper, the ultimate compressive strength with varying the yield stress of softening region and the aspect ratio of the plate is investigated by using the elasto-plastic large deformation finite element method.

$Al_2O_3$/SiC particulate reinforced (Metal Matrix Composites) MMCs which were produced by using stir casting process, bending strength and hardening behaviour were obtained using an analysis of variance (ANOVA) technique that uses full factorial design. Factor variables and their ranges were: particle size $2-60{\mu}m$; the stirring speed 450 rpm, 500 rpm and the stirring temperature $620^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$. An empirical equation was derived from test results to describe the relationship between the test parameters. This model for the tensile strength of the hybrid composite materials with $R^2$ adj = 80% for the bending strength $R^2$ adj = 89% were generated from the data. The regression coefficients of this model quantify the tensile strength and bending strengths of the effects of each of the factors. The interactions of all three factors do not present significant percentage contributions on the tensile strength and bending strengths of hybrid composite materials. Analysis of the residuals versus was predicted the tensile strength and bending strengths show a normalized distribution and thereby confirms the suitability of this model. Particle size was found to have the strongest influence on the tensile strength and bending strength.

This paper investigates the effect of the jaw's curvature, also known by contact angle and jaw arc central angle (2α), of the Brazilian test apparatus on indirect tensile strength of various rock types. That's why, ten rock samples including limestone, marble, skarn, granite, diorite, and granodiorite were collected from some quarries in different provinces of Iran. Petrographic, mineralogical and textural investigations were performed using thin section analyses. Physical properties of the selected rock samples namely dry and saturated unit weights, porosity, water absorption, and specific gravity were determined for the rock samples. In addition, Brazilian tensile strength at different 2α angles (i.e., 2α = 0°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 45°, and 60°) were determined for the rocks in the laboratory. Results show that the parameter for the rocks is between 3.81 MPa at 2α=0° and 54.76 MPa at 2α=60°. This means that Brazilian tensile strength increased with increasing 2α angle from 0° to 60°. Also, it was found that the highest change rate of the Brazilian tensile strength occurs in range of 2α=15°-30° for most studied rock samples. In some tested samples, the parameter is decreased only at 2α = 60°. The values of Brazilian tensile strength of the rocks tested by flat and standard jaws are near to each other.

Precut을 가지고 있는 고무 시편에서 서로 다른 온도에서 인장 강도의 영향을 조사하였다. 온도 조건에 따라 precut이 있는 시편과 precut이 없는 시편의 인장 강도는 서로 다른 거동을 보였다. $80^{\circ}C$에서는 임계 Precut 크기보다 더 큰 precut를 가지는 시편은 상온에서 시편보다 높은 인장 강도를 보였다. 상온에서 측정한 시편에 비하며 $80^{\circ}C$에서 측정한 시편은 잘 발달된 2차 균열들을 가지고 있는 반면, $110^{\circ}C$에서 측정한 시편의 경우 2차 균열들이 명확하게 발달하지 못하였다. 서로 다른 온도에서 인장강도의 차이는 인장시 발달된 결정화도와 균열 끝 부분에서 형성된 미세 균열 형상과 관계가 있는 것으로 보인다.
