This paper investigates coupled thermal, mechanical and hydraulic phenomena in deep rock mass especially for underground heat storage system. Firstly, concepts of underground heat storage were presented and coupling phenomena in this area were illustrated. In order to understand the basic mechanism of thermal, hydraulic and deformation behavior in rock cavern disturbed by thermal gradient about 10$0^{\circ}C$, various numerical experiments were conducted using several codes. The study involves the behavior of fractured rock mass including rock joint. In spite of the limitation of codes modelling fully coupled effects, these codes could be applied in analysis of underground heat storage. The heat loss in rock mass, which is a major factor in heat storage, is insignificant in all results.

In this study, the effects of selecting water/silver nanofluid as both a coolant and a reactivity controller during the first operating cycle of a light water nuclear reactor are investigated. To achieve this, coupled neutronic-thermo-hydraulic analysis is employed to simulate the reactor core. A detailed VVER1000/446 reactor core is modeled in monte carlo code (MCNP), and the model is verified using the porous media approach. Results show that the maximum required level of silver nanoparticles is 1.3 Vol.% at the beginning of the cycle; this value drops to zero at the end of cycle. Due to substitution of water/boric acid with water/Ag nanofluid, reactor operation time at maximum power extends to 357.3 days, and the energy generation increases by about 27.3%. The higher negative coolant temperature coefficient of reactivity in the presence of nanofluid in comparison with the water/boric acid indicates that the reactor is inherently safer. Considering the safety margins in the presence of the nanofluid, minimum departure from nucleate boiling ratio is calculated to be 2.16 (recommendation is 1.75).

An integrated finite element computer simulator is presented for the prediction of three dimensional heat transfer and metal flow occurring in the strip, and heat transfer and thermo elastic phenomena occurring in the rolls in 4 high mill hot strip rolling. Basic finite element models are described, with emphasis on combining each model to deal rigorously with the coupled aspect of the thermo-mechanical behaviors of the rols and strip through an iterative solution procedure. A series of process simulation are carried out to investigate the effect of various parameters under the actual process conditions. The results are shown and discussed.

A warpage analysis program has been developed for fiber-reinforced injection molded parts. The warpage is Predicted from the residual stress and anisotropic thermo-mechanical properties coupled with fiber orientation in the integrated injection molding simulation. A simple elastic model is used for the calculation of thermally and pressure-induced residual stresses which are employed as the initial conditions in the structural analysis. To improve the reliability of warpage analysis, a new triangular flat shell element superimposing well-known efficient plate bending and membrane element is presented. The numerical examples address the neccesity to use anisotropic models for fiber-reinforced materials and show that predicted warpage is in good agreement with experimentally measured one.

The present study intends to analyze damage in thin-walled steel cylinders undergoing constant internal pressure and thermal cycles through use of anisotropic continuum damage mechanics (CDM) model coupled with nonlinear kinematic hardening rule of Chaboche. Materials damage in each direction was defined based on plastic strain and its direction. Stress and strain distribution over wall-thickness was described based on the CDM model and the return mapping algorithm was employed based on the consistency condition. Plastic zone expansion across the wall thickness of cylinders was noticeably affected with change in internal pressure and temperature gradients. Expansion of plastic zone over wall-thickness at inner and outer surfaces and their boundaries demarking elastic and plastic regions was attributed to the magnitude of damage induced over thermomechanical cycles on the thin-walled samples tested at various pressure stresses.

최근 원자력의 사용이 증가함에 따라 핵폐기물을 효과적으로 처리하는 문제에 관심이 집중되고 있다. 이러한 핵폐기물을 지층내에 저장할 경우 고온의 열에 의해 핵폐기물 구조체에 지대한 영향을 미치므로 지반의 열력학적 거동을 분석할 필요성이 요구된다. 본 연구는 지반내에 처분된 고온의 사용후 핵연료에 의한 열역학적인 응력이 집중되어 비선형 거동이 예상되는 저장구조체 주변에는 비선형 유한요소를 적용하고 선형거동이 예상되는 무한영역에는 선형경계요소를 사용하여, 일반적인 역학적 계와 동일한 방법으로 비선형 유한요소와 경계요소를 조합한 프로그램을 개발하였다. 사용후 핵연료 폐기구조체와 같이 국부적인 비선형거동이 예상되는 구조물에서는 조합방법이 전 영역을 비선형 유한요소로 모형화하여 해석하는 것보다 효율적임을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 지층내 지반에 영향 미치는 주요 지반계수를 변화시킨 경우, 터널경계의 변위에 이러한 계수들이 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 개발된 방법을 사용하여 검토하였다. 검토결과, 다른 계수들의 변화보다 열팽창계수의 변화가 터널주위의 변위에 상당한 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다.

최근 지하철 시공 확대와 국토의 지형적인 특수성, 시공기술의 발달 등으로 인하여 장대터널이 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 터널 및 지하구조물에서 발생되는 화재는 지하공간이라는 폐쇄된 공간특성으로 인해 지상화재에 비해 많은 인명과 경제적 피해를 발생시킨다. 국내의 경우 터널 및 지하구조물에 대한 내화 연구가 진행 중이나 고온 시 콘크리트의 폭열 발생으로 인한 내하력 저하 및 안전성 평가에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 시간가열 온도곡선(RABT 및 RWS)에 따른 콘크리트 내화 특성을 평가하고 실제 발생한 화재사례와 비교 검토하여 적용성을 제시하였다. 또한 유한요소 기반의 수치모델을 적용한 열-역학 연동해석을 실시하여 화재로 인한 지하구조물의 단면 손실 및 손상정도를 예측 평가하였다.

Complicated residual stress distributions occur in the vicinity of a deposited region via directed energy deposition (DED) process owing to the rapid heating and cooling cycle of the deposited region and the substrate. The residual stress can cause defects and premature failure in the vicinity of the deposited region. Several heat treatment technologies have been extensively researched and applied on the part deposited by the DED process to relieve the residual stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the residual stress characteristics of a specimen fabricated by DED and a quenching process using thermomechanical analyses. A coupled thermomechanical analysis technique was adopted to predict the residual stress distribution in the vicinity of the deposited region subsequent to the quenching step. The results of the finite element (FE) analyses for the deposition and the cooling measures show that the residual stress in the vicinity of the deposited region significantly increases after the completion of the elastic recovery. The results of the FE analyses for the heating and quenching stages further indicate that the residual stress in the vicinity of the deposited region remarkably increases at the initial stage of quenching. In addition, it is observed that the residual stress for quenching is lesser than that after the elastic recovery, irrespective of the deposited material.

In this study, the stresses and electric potential redistributions of a cylinder made from functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) are investigated. All the mechanical, thermal and piezoelectric properties are modeled as power-law distribution of volume fraction. Using the coupled electro-thermo-mechanical relations, strain-displacement relations, Maxwell and equilibrium equations are obtained including the time dependent creep strains. Creep strains are time, temperature and stress dependent, the closed form solution cannot be found for this constitutive differential equation. A semi-analytical method in conjunction with the Mendelson method of successive approximation is therefore proposed for this analysis. Similar to the radial stress histories, electric potentials increase with time, because the latter is induced by the former during creep deformation of the cylinder, justifying industrial application of such a material as efficient actuators and sensors.
