Nonlinear analysis of the reinforced concrete beam subjected to torsion is presented. Seventeen equations involving seventeen variables are derived from the equilibrium equation, compatibility equation, and the material constitutive laws to solve the torsion problem. Newton method was used to solve the nonlinear simultaneous equations and efficient algorithms are proposed. Present model covers the behavior of reinforced concrete beam under pure torsion from service load range to ultimate stage. Tensile resistance of concrete after cracking is appropriately considered. The softened concrete truss model and the average stress-strain relations of concrete and steel are used. To verify the validity of Present model, the nominal torsional moment strengths according to ACI-99 code and the ultimate torsional moment by present model are compared to experimental torsional strengths of 55 test specimens found in literature. The ultimate torsional moment strengths by the present model show good results.

본 연구에서는 임상에서 쓰이는 수종의 치과교정용 세라믹 브라켓에 교정용 호선으로 토오크 적용 시 파절에 저항하는 정도를 비교하고 그 파절 양상을 관찰하였다. $022\;{\times}\;028-inch$ slot을 가진 상악 중절치 세라믹 브라켓에 $0215\;{\times}\;027-inch$ 스테인레스 강 교정용 호선에서 발생하는 설측 치근 토오크를 적용시켜 각 15개씩 7종의 브라켓을 시험하였다. 파절 시험용 장치를 제작하고 토오크 각도를 증가시키면서 만능시험기로 세라믹 브라켓이 파절되는 순간의 토오크 값을 측정하였다. 또한 세라믹 브라켓의 파절 양상을 알아보고자 토오크 값 측정 후 파절이 일어난 부위를 관찰하고 그 위치를 기록한 주사전자현미경으로 파절면을 관찰하였다. 나타난 결과를 토대로 볼 때 세라믹 브라켓의 결정구조와 제조 방법이 파절 저항성에 크게 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 단결정 알루미나 (Inspire) 브라켓이 InVu를 제외한 다결정 알루미나 브라켓에 비하여 토오크에 대한 파절 저항성이 유의성 있게 크게 나타났다 (p < 0.05). Metal slot이 삽입된 브라켓은 그렇지 않은 브라켓과 토오크에 대한 저항성에서 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다 (p >0.05). 파절 양상에 관한 관찰에서는 metal slot이 있는 다결정 알루미나 브라켓인 Clarity는 모두 절단측 slot base에서 부분적으로만 파절이 일어났고 다른 종류의 브라켓들은 다양한 부위에서 파절이 일어났다. 본 연구 결과, 실험에 사용한 모든 세라믹 브라켓에서 파절이 일어난 순간의 토오크 값과 토오크 각은 실제로 상악 중절치의 치근을 이동하는데 필요한 토오크보다 큰 것이었으므로, 실제 임상 치료 시 적절한 파절 저항을 나타낼 것으로 보였다.

Long shafts for power transmission should transmit torsional load with vibrational stability. Hybrid shafts made of unidirectional fiber-reinforced composite and metal have high fundamental bending natural frequency as well as high torque transmission capability. However, thermal residual stresses due to the coefficient difference of thermal expansion of the composite and metal are developed so that the high residual stresses decrease fatigue resistance of the hybrid shafts, especially at low operating temperatures. In this work, axial compressive preload was given to the shaft in order to change the residual stresses. Static and fatigue torsional tests were performed and correlated with stress analyses with respect to the preload and service temperature.

Static torsional provisions employing equivalent lateral force method (ELF) require that the earthquake-induced lateral force at each story be applied at a distance equal to design eccentricity ($e_d$) from a reference resistance centre of the corresponding story. Such code torsional provisions, albeit not explicitly stated, are generally believed to be applicable to the regularly asymmetric buildings. Examined herein is the applicability of such code-torsional provisions to buildings with set-back using rigid as well as flexible diaphragm model. Response of a number of set-back systems computed through ELF with static torsional provisions is compared to that by response spectrum based procedure. Influence of infill wall with a range of opening is also investigated. Results of comprehensive parametric studies suggest that the ELF may, with rational engineering judgment, be used for practical purposes taking some care of the surroundings of the setback for stiff systems in particular.

A composite box-girder with corrugated steel webs has been used in civil engineering practice as an alternative to the conventional pre-stressed concrete box-girder because of several advantages, such as high shear resistance without vertical stiffeners and an increase in the efficiency of pre-stressing due to the accordion effect. Many studies have been conducted on the shear buckling and flexural behavior of the composite box-girder with corrugated steel webs. However, the torsional behavior is not fully understood yet, and it needed to be investigated. Prior study of the torsion of the composite box-girder with corrugated steel webs has been developed by assuming that the concrete section is cracked prior to loading and doesn't have tensile resistance. This results in poor estimation of pre-cracking behaviors, such as initial stiffness. To overcome this disadvantage of the previous analytical model, an improved analytical model for torsion of the composite box-girder with corrugated steel webs was developed considering the concrete tension behavior in this study. Based on the proposed analytical model, a non-linear torsional analysis program for torsion of the composite box-girder with corrugated steel webs was developed and successfully verified by comparing with the results of the test. The proposed analytical model shows that the concrete tension behavior has significant effect on the initial torsional stiffness and cracking torsional moment. Finally, a simplified torsional moment-twist angle relationship of the composite box-girder with corrugated steel webs was proposed based on the proposed analytical model.

One of the most efficient designs of solar trackers for photovoltaic panels is the single-axis tracker, which holds the panels along a torque tube that is driven by a motor at the central section. These trackers have evolved to become extremely slender structures due to mechanical optimization against static load and the need of cost reduction in a very competitive market. Owing to the corresponding decrease in mechanical resistance, some of these trackers have suffered aeroelastic instability even at moderate wind speeds, leading to catastrophic failures. In the present work, an analytical and experimental approach has been developed to study that phenomenon. The analytical study has led to identify the dimensionless parameters that govern the motion of the panel-tracker structure. Also, systematic wind tunnel experiments have been carried out on a 3D aeroelastic scale model. The tests have been successful in reproducing the aeroelastic phenomena arising in real-scale cases and have allowed the identification and a close characterization of the phenomenon. The main results have been the determination of the critical velocity for torsional galloping as a function of tilt angle and a calculation methodology for the optimal sizing of solar tracker shafts.

1995년에 개정된 현행 ACI 규준식은 콘크리트의 비틀림 저항을 무시하여, 콘크리트와 비틀림 보강근이 비틀림 내력에 미치는 상호영향을 평가할 수 없다. 실험에서는 현행 ACI 규준식이 콘크리트와 비틀림 보강근의 차이에 따라 철근콘크리트 보의 비틀림 내력을 과소/과대 평가하고 있음을 지적하였다. 이 논문에서는 트러스 모델의 힘의 평형조건과 변형의 적합조건을 이용하여 콘크리트의 비틀림 저항을 고려한 비틀림 평가식을 제안하였다. 제안식에서는 현행 규준식의 상수 '2'대신에 $textsc{k}$를 사용하여 비틀림 모멘트에 대한 콘크리트와 비틀림 보강근의 상호영향을 고려하였다. 제안식은 순수비틀림을 받는 총 66개의 철근콘크리트 보의 실험결과와 비교되었다. 제안식은 콘크리트의 압축강도와 비틀림 보강근의 양의 변화에 관계없이 현행 ACI 비틀림 규준식보다 정확하게 실제의 비틀림 모멘트를 예측하였으며, 이 때의 평균값 및 변동계수는 각각 1.1 및 8.5%였다.

The predominant type of buckling that I-steel concrete composite beams experience in the negative moment area is distortional buckling. The key factors that affect distortional buckling are the torsional and lateral restraints by the bottom flange. This study thoroughly investigates the equivalent lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange of an I-steel concrete composite beam under negative moments. The results show a coupling effect between the applied forces and the lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange. A formula is proposed to calculate the critical buckling stress of the I-steel concrete composite beams under negative moments by considering the lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange. The proposed method is shown to better predict the critical bending moment of the I-steel composite beams. This article introduces an improved method to calculate the elastic foundation beams, which takes into account the lateral and torsional restraint stiffnesses of the bottom flange and considers the coupling effect between them. The results show a close match in results from the calculation method proposed in this paper and the ANSYS finite element method, which validates the proposed calculation method. The proposed calculation method provides a theoretical basis for further research on distortional buckling and the ultimate resistance of I-steel concrete composite beams under a variable axial force.

This study aims to assess the seismic performance of retrofitted reinforced concrete columns using a Replaceable Steel Brace (RSB) system, subjected to combined axial, lateral, and torsional loadings. Through experimental testing, one non-retrofitted concrete column specimen and two retrofitted specimens with variable sliding slot lengths were subjected to eccentric lateral loads to simulate realistic seismic loading. The retrofitted specimens with RSBs exhibited enhanced resistance against shear cracking, effective torsional resistance, and demonstrated the feasibility of easy replacement. The RSB system substantially improved seismic performance, achieving approximately 1.7 times higher load capacity and 3.5 times greater energy dissipation compared to non-retrofitted column, thus validating its efficacy under combined loading conditions.
