Girdling underpinning joints are key areas of concern for the pier-cutting bridge-lifting process. In this study, five specimens of an underpinning joint were prepared by varying the cross-sectional shape of the respective column, the process used to treat the beam-column interface (BCI), and the casting process. These specimens were subsequently analyzed through static failure tests. The BCI was found to be the weakest area of the joint, and the specimens containing a BCI underwent punching shear failure. The top of the girdling beam (GB) was subjected to a circumferential tensile force during slippage failure. Compared to the specimens with a smooth BCI, the specimens subjected to chiseling exhibited more pronounced circumferential compression at the BCI, which in turn considerably increased the shear capacity of the BCI and the ductility of the structure. The GB for the specimens containing a column with a circular cross-section exhibited better shear mechanical properties than the GB of other specimens. The BCI in specimens containing a column with a circular cross-section was more ductile during failure than that in specimens containing a column with a square cross-section.

Parametric studies are executed by numerical method varying then number of strain gauges, rail section and distance of sleeper from which the followings are obtained. Wheel forces or lateral forces are measured by connecting eight strain gauges on rail to single Wheatstone bridge. The method eliminates the influence of interaction and measured stability. Strain gauges are fastened on the neutral axis of the rail so as not to be influenced by sleeper.

Hydroforming is a metal forming process that enables circular metal tubes to be formed in to the parts with the complex cross section along the curved axial direction. Recently this hydroforming process is largely used for the production of the automotive parts. This paper presents the results of tube bending and hydroforming simulations in cases of the varying weld line positions of the tube. Ten cases of prebending and hydroforming simulations are carried out to find the optiaml weld line position.

고해상도 위성 SAR 영상은 주파수 특성, 안테나 설계 변수, 시스템 내부 잡음 및 간섭 신호에 영향을 많이 받으며, 특히 표적의 RCS(Radar Cross Section)에 따라 표적 특성의 품질이 달라지기 때문에 영상 예측을 위한 시뮬레이션이 복잡해진다. 본 논문에서는 STK(Systems Tool Kit)과 매트랩을 결합하여 작성한 SAR 운용 시뮬레이터를 구축하고, 추출된 데이터를 적용하여 SAR 시뮬레이션을 수행한다. 점 표적의 품질을 판별할 수 있는 중요 변수 특성을 분석하며, 향후 위성 SAR 영상의 검보정에 활용할 수 있음을 보인다. 또한, 위성의 궤도 위치에 따라 변화하는 표적의 RCS를 적용하고, 발생 가능한 RF 간섭 신호를 반영하여 SAR 영상에서의 표적물 품질변화 예측을 수행할 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

This study examines the preparation and characterization of Kenaf/Starch bio-composites used as filler and a matrix. Kenaf was cultivated in Chung-ju in Korea, and the Kenaf/Starch bio-composites were prepared under various conditions of kenaf fiber length (1-5 centimeters); the content of Kenaf fiber was 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%, and the number of composite layers (one-four). Depending on the formation conditions of Kenaf/Starch composites, the physical properties such as tensile strength, elongation, and the young modulus of the Kenaf/Starch composites were measured. In addition, we measured the SEM cross-section images in order to investigate the interfacial adhesion properties of fractured surfaces. As a result, the tensile strength and elongation of the Kenaf/Starch composites were highest in the molding conditions of a hot press at $120^{\circ}C$, 3000PSI of pressure, and for 30 minute periods. The result of measuring the physical properties of the composites manufactured by varying the content of Kenaf fiber when the content of Kenaf fiber was 30% as well the physical properties of the Kenaf/Starch composite was found desirable. It was found that the physical properties improved with more overlapped layers in the composites manufactured by varying the number of overlapped layers. Through the measuring of the SEM cross-section images, we found that the interfacial adhesion state between the filler and matrix of Kenaf/Starch composite greatly affects the physical properties.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to determine the optimal frequency of ground penetrating radar (GPR) testing for detecting the voids under the pavement. METHODS : In order to determine the optimal frequency of GPR testing for void detection, a full-scale test section was constructed to simulate the actual size of voids under the pavement. Voids of various sizes were created by inserting styrofoam at varying depths under the pavement. Subsequently, 250-, 500-, and 800-MHz ground-coupled GPR testing was conducted in the test section and the resulting GPR signals were recorded. The change in the amplitude of these signals was evaluated by varying the GPR frequency, void size, and void depth. The optimum frequency was determined from the amplitude of the signals. RESULTS: The capacity of GPR to detect voids under the pavement was evaluated by using three different ground-coupled GPR frequencies. In the case of the B-scan GPR data, a parabolic shape occurred in the vicinity of the voids. The maximum GPR amplitude in the A-scan data was used to quantitatively determine the void-detection capacity. CONCLUSIONS: The 250-MHz GPR testing enabled the detection of 10 out of 12 simulated voids, whereas the 500-MHz testing allowed the detection of only five. Furthermore, the amplitude of GPR detection associated with 250-MHz testing is significantly higher than that of 500-MHz testing. This indicates that 250-MHz GPR testing is well-suited for the detection of voids located at depths ranging from 0.5~2.0 m. Testing at frequencies lower than 250 MHz is recommended for void detection at depths greater than 2 m.

The ultimate carrying capacity of axially loaded welded square box section members made of medium and high strength steels (nominal yield stresses varying from 345 MPa to 460 MPa), with large width-to-thickness ratios ranging from 35 to 70, is analyzed by finite element method (FEM). At the same time, the numerical results are compared with the predicted results using Direct Strength Method (DSM), modified DSM and Effective Yield Strength Method (EYSM). It shows that curve a, rather than curve b recommended in Code for design of steel structures GB50017-2003, should be used to check the local-overall interaction buckling strength of welded square section columns fabricated from medium and high strength steels when using DSM, modified DSM and EYSM. Despite all this, EYSM is conservative. Compared to EYSM and modified DSM, DSM provides a better prediction of the ultimate capacities of welded square box compression members with large width-thickness ratios over a wide range of width-thickness ratios, slenderness ratios and steel grades. However, for high strength steels (nominal yield strength greater than 460 MPa), the numerical and existent experimental results indicate that DSM overestimates the load-carrying capacities of the columns with width-thickness ratio smaller than 45 and slenderness ratio less than 80. Further, for the purpose of making it suitable for a wider scope, DSM has been modified (called proposed modified DSM). The proposed modified DSM is in excellent agreement with the numerical and existing experimental results.

현행 도로교설계기준의 철근콘크리트 교각 심부구속 횡방향철근량 산정식은 중심축력을 받는 기둥에서 콘크리트 피복이 탈락된 후 콘크리트 심부만으로 저항하는 축강도가 콘크리트 피복이 탈락되기 이전의 축강도 이상이 되기 위하여 필요한 횡구속 철근비로서 콘크리트 압축강도, 횡방향철근 항복강도 및 단면적비율을 주요변수로 고려하고 있다. 이들 변수 중 피복두께에 따라 달라지는 전체단면적과 심부단면적의 단면적비율은 압축파괴 영역에서의 강도발현 측면을 고려한 변수이므로 교각과 같이 작용축력이 상대적으로 낮아 축력보다는 모멘트에 의해서 지배되는 인장파괴 영역의 연성거동 측면에서는 단면적비율이 미치는 영향은 크지 않다. 그러나 설계기준의 횡방향철근량 산정식 자체가 교각의 내진거동에 중요한 요소인 연성능력을 직접적으로 고려한 식이 아니기 때문에 단면크기가 상대적으로 작은 경우 또는 내구성 등의 확보 차원에서 콘크리트 피복두께가 증가하여 단면적비율이 과도하게 커지는 경우에는 교각의 시공성 및 경제성이 저하될 정도로 많은 횡방향철근량이 요구되는 문제점을 야기한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 콘크리트 피복두께가 심부구속 횡방향철근량 산정식에 미치는 영향을 비교, 분석하고 보다 합리적인 내진설계를 위한 심부구속 횡방향철근량 산정식을 수정 제안하였으며 국내 외에서 수행된 실험 결과를 바탕으로 제안식의 안전율 및 타당성을 검증하였다.
