본 연구에서는 다구찌방법을 이용하여 고분자 전해질 연료전지 스택 가스켓의 강건설계를 수행하였다. 스택의 조립과정 시 발생하는 조립오차(잡음인자)를 고려한다. 이러한 잡음인자를 포함한 연구는 연료전지 스택의 안전성 확보와 성능향상을 위해 필요하다. 잡음인자의 영향이 둔감하도록 설계하기 위하여 다구찌의 강건설계 방법을 적용하였다. 가스켓 해석의 경우 하중과 변위의 초탄성 거동을 표현하기 위하여 Mooney-Rivlin의 변형률에너지 함수를 사용하였다. 또한, 단축 및 등가 이축 인장 시험을 통해 초탄성 거동의 해석에 필요한 물성을 구하였으며, 비선형 초탄성 해석을 수행하고 강건설계를 수행 하였다. PEMFC 스택의 강건설계를 통하여 구조적 신뢰성을 확보하게 되었다.

The fracture propagation mechanism and fractured rock mass failure mechanism were important research in geotechnical engineering field. Many failures and instability in geotechnical engineering were related on fractures propagation, coalescence and interaction in rock mass under the external force. Most of the current research were limited to two-dimensional for the brittleness and transparency of three-dimensional fracture materials couldn't meet the requirements of the experiment. New materials with good transparent and brittleness were developed by authors. The making method of multi fracture specimens were established and made molds that could be reused. The tension-compression ratio of the material reached above 1/6 in normal temperature. Uniaxial and biaxial loading tests of single and double fracture specimens were carried out. Four new fractures were not found in the experiment of two-dimensional fractures such as the fin shaped crack, wrapping wing crack and petal crack and anti-wing crack. The relationship between stress and strain of the specimens were studied. The specimens with the load had experienced four stages of deformation and the process of the fracture propagation was clearly seen in each stage. The expansion characteristics of the fractured specimens were more obvious than the previous research.

An analytical finite element approach to nonlinear behavior of reinforced concrete shear walls with opening under monotonic loading was presented in this paper. In order to achieve the objectives of present paper, the orthogonal anisotropic models for cracked reinforced concrete element based on smeared crack concept were used as the nonlinear material models of biaxial state of stress. The stiffness of cracked concrete was evaluated through the combined use of tension and compression stiffness models in and parallel directions of crack, respectively and shear transfer effect due to the aggregate interlocking at crack surface. The stress and strain of reinforcement in concrete was evaluated using the average stress and average strain relation with bond effect. based on smeared crack concept. The diagonal reinforcing bar was modeled using truss element with bond effect. A special significance of diagonal reinforcement near opening was given to the shear wall with opening and an effective distribution of diagonal reinforcement was presented in order to give an ultimate strength increment as well as a crack control.

We performed shape optimization of an anti-vibration rubber assembly which is used in the field option cabin of agricultural tractors to improve the vibration isolation capability. To characterize the hyper-elastic material property of rubber, we performed uniaxial and biaxial tension tests and used the data to calibrate the material model applied in the finite element analyses. We conducted a field test to characterize the input excitation from the tractor and the output response at the cabin frame. To account for the nonlinear behavior of rubber, we performed static analyses to derive the load-displacement curve of the anti-vibration rubber assembly. The stiffness of the rubber assembly could be calculated from this curve and was input to the harmonic analyses of the cabin. We compared the results with the test data for verification. We utilized Taguchi's parameter design method to determine the optimal shape of the anti-vibration rubber assembly and found two distinct shapes with reduced stiffness. Results show that the vibration at the cabin frame was reduced by approximately 35% or 47.6% compared with the initial design using the two optimized models.

The shear behaviour of reinforced concrete members has been studied over the past decades by various researchers, and it can be simulated by analysing shear panel elements which has been regarded as a basic element of reinforced concrete members subjected to in-plane biaxial stresses. Despite various experimental studies on shear panel element which have been conducted so far, there are still a lot of uncertainties related to what influencing factors govern the shear behaviour and affect failure mechanism in reinforced concrete members. To identify the uncertainties, a finite element analysis can be used, which enables to investigate the impact of specific variables such as the reinforcement ratio, the shear retention factor, and the material characteristics including aggregate interlock, tension stiffening, compressive softening, and shear behaviour at the crack surface. In this study, a non-linear probabilistic analysis was conducted on reinforced concrete panels using a finite element method optimized for reinforced concrete members and advanced sampling techniques so that probabilistic analysis can be performed effectively. Consequently, this study figures out what analysis methodology and input parameters have the most influence on shear behaviour of reinforced concrete panels.

철근 콘크리트 구조물의 재료적 비선형 해석을 위해 유한요소법을 적용하였다. 2 축응력 상태에서의 콘크리트 거동은 인장균열과 균열사이의 인장증강효과(tension stiffening effect) 그리고 최대압축 강도를 넘어서의 변형연화(strain-softening) 효과를 고려하는 비선형 구성 방정식으로 나타냈다. 콘크리트를 직교성 (orthotropic) 재료로 가정함으로써 비선형 탄성체로 간주하고, 등가일축변형도 개념을 사용한 등가 일축 응력-변형도(equivalent uniaxial stress-strain) 관계식으로 모형화하고, 철근 보강재는 Bauschinger 효과를 갖는 탄소성 변형 경화재료(elasto-plastic strain-hardening material)로 모형화 했다. 평면 응력 상태에서 철근콘크리트 보의 모형화는 각 절점에 2 개의 자유도를 갖는 사각형요소로 모형화하여 적용 시쳤으며, 이로부터 구한 유한요소해석의 결과치를 실험결과치의 중앙처짐, 응력, 변형율 그리고 균열성장과정에 대하여 비교 검토 하였다.

몇 가지 전형적인 기존 및 진보된 초탄성 구성모델들의 고무패치 이축인장 및 구형 또는 원통형 풍선 팽창에서의 불안정성에 대해서 밝힌다. 적용할 구성모델은 neo-Hookean 모델, Mooney-Rivlin 모델, Gent 모델, Arruda-Boyce 모델, Fung 모델, Pucci-Saccomandi 모델 등이다. 팽창 및 분기 해석은 이들 변형에너지 함수들의 막 방정식을 이용하여 수행할 수 있다. 해석에는 사각패치에 대한 Kearsley의 분기현상, 고무풍선의 일반화 한 팽창현상, 고무풍선의 분기현상을 다룬다. 이들 변형에너지 함수들 중에서도 오직 Mooney-Rivlin 모델에서만 Kearsley의 분기현상이 일어남을 확인하였다. 팽창 방정식은 구형풍선과 원통형 풍선을 함께 다룰 수 있도록 일반화 시켰다. 팽창해석에 의하여 극한점과 임계 물성치들을 무차원 압력 및 팽창 부피의 항들로 구하였다. 그렇게 구해진 결과들로부터 분기현상을 구할 수 있었다. 또한 유한요소법을 사용하여 고무류의 구조적 불안정 문제들을 다룰 때 필요한 특별한 조처에 대해서 제안하였다. 결론적으로 고무류의 불안정성을 포함하는 문제를 다룰 때는 해석기법은 물론 구성모델의 선택에 따라 결과가 달라질 수 있으므로 신중한 처리가 요구된다.

Reinforced and prestressed concrete (RC and PC) thin walls are crucial to the safety and serviceability of structures subjected to shear. The shear strengths of elements in walls depend strongly on the softening of concrete struts in the principal compression direction due to the principal tension in the perpendicular direction. The past three decades have seen a rapid development of knowledge in shear of reinforced concrete structures. Various rational models have been proposed that are based on the smeared-crack concept and can satisfy Navier's three principles of mechanics of materials (i.e., stress equilibrium, strain compatibility and constitutive laws). The Cyclic Softened Membrane Model (CSMM) is one such rational model developed at the University of Houston, which is being efficiently used to predict the behavior of RC/PC structures critical in shear. CSMM for RC has already been implemented into finite element framework of OpenSees (Fenves 2005) to come up with a finite element program called Simulation of Reinforced Concrete Structures (SRCS) (Zhong 2005, Mo et al. 2008). CSMM for PC is being currently implemented into SRCS to make the program applicable to reinforced as well as prestressed concrete. The generalized program is called Simulation of Concrete Structures (SCS). In this paper, the CSMM for RC/PC in material scale is first introduced. Basically, the constitutive relationships of the materials, including uniaxial constitutive relationship of concrete, uniaxial constitutive relationships of reinforcements embedded in concrete and constitutive relationship of concrete in shear, are determined by testing RC/PC full-scale panels in a Universal Panel Tester available at the University of Houston. The formulation in element scale is then derived, including equilibrium and compatibility equations, relationship between biaxial strains and uniaxial strains, material stiffness matrix and RC plane stress element. Finally the formulated results with RC/PC plane stress elements are implemented in structure scale into a finite element program based on the framework of OpenSees to predict the structural behavior of RC/PC thin-walled structures subjected to earthquake-type loading. The accuracy of the multiscale modeling technique is validated by comparing the simulated responses of RC shear walls subjected to reversed cyclic loading and shake table excitations with test data. The response of a post tensioned precast column under reversed cyclic loads has also been simulated to check the accuracy of SCS which is currently under development. This multiscale modeling technique greatly improves the simulation capability of RC thin-walled structures available to researchers and engineers.

직접전단 부재의 전단강도는 전단마찰 유사론에 근거하여 콘크리트 계면에 수직 또는 경사로 배치된 철근의 전단전달에 의해 외력에 저항하며, 철근 단면적의 크기에 비례한다. 현행 콘크리트구조기준에서도 전단마찰 유사론에 근거한 경험식을 사용하고 있으며, 콘크리트 합성보의 수평전단 영역에도 동일한 전단강도 산출방법을 적용한다. 그러나 전단철근량이 많은 부재의 경우에는 이러한 경험식을 통해 구해진 전단강도는 시험체의 실측값과 비교하여 낮은 값을 나타낸다. 이 논문에서는 응력장 이론을 이용하여 기존 철근콘크리트 거더 위에 새로 타설된 합성보의 극한한계상태를 정의하고, 콘크리트의 인장증강효과 및 2축 응력 상태의 최대 압축강도의 변화를 고려할 수 있는 재료구성식을 적용한 전단강도 산정방법을 제안하였다. 또한 설계기준의 전단마찰 강도식과 유사하게 콘크리트 스트럿 유효압축강도를 고려할 수 있는 단순화된 수평전단강도 평가식을 제안하였다. 기존 문헌에 수록된 수평전단파괴를 유발하도록 제작된 합성보의 실험결과 및 설계기준 규정과 비교를 통하여 강도 산출방법의 타당성 및 제안식의 적용성을 검증하였다. 검증 결과, 전단철근비에 따라 전단강도 예측값에 차이가 발생하는 설계기준의 규정들과 다르게, 전단철근의 항복을 수반하는 경우에는 대체적으로 실험결과와 유사한 경향을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다.
