In this paper the viscoelastic responses of four experimental steel-concrete composite beams subjected to highly variable environmental conditions are investigated by means of a finite element (FE) model. Concrete specimens submitted to stepped stress changes are also evaluated to validate the current formulations. Here, two well-known approaches commonly used to solve the viscoelastic constitutive relationship for concrete are employed. The first approach directly solves the integral-type form of the constitutive equation at the macroscopic level, in which aging is included by updating material properties. The second approach is postulated from a rate-type law based on an age-independent Generalized Kelvin rheological model together with Solidification Theory, using a micromechanical based approach. Thus, conceptually both approaches include concrete hardening in two different manners. The aim of this work is to compare and analyze the numerical prediction in terms of long-term deflections of the studied specimens according to both approaches. To accomplish this goal, the performance of several well-known model codes for concrete creep and shrinkage such as ACI 209, CEB-MC90, CEB-MC99, B3, GL 2000 and FIB-2010 are evaluated by means of statistical bias indicators. It is shown that both approaches with minor differences acceptably match the long-term experimental deflection and are able to capture complex oscillatory responses due to variable temperature and relative humidity. Nevertheless, the use of an age-independent scheme as proposed by Solidification Theory may be computationally more advantageous.

This paper concerns with forced dynamic response of thick functionally graded (FG) beam resting on viscoelastic foundation including porosity impacts. The dynamic point load is proposed to be triangle point loads in time domain. In current analysis the beam is assumed to be thick, therefore, the two-dimensional plane stress constitutive equation is proposed to govern the stress-strain relationship through the thickness. The porosity and void included in constituent is described by three different distribution models through the beam thickness. The governing equations are obtained by using Lagrange's equations and solved by finite element method. In frame of finite element analysis, twelve-node 2D plane element is exploited to discretize the space domain of beam. In the solution of the dynamic problem, Newmark average acceleration method is used. In the numerical results, effects of porosity coefficient, porosity distribution and foundation parameters on the dynamic responses of functionally graded viscoelastic beam are presented and discussed. The current model is efficient in many applications used porous FGM, such as aerospace, nuclear, power plane sheller, and marine structures.

본고는 기약지반변형해석에 이용될 범용 program을 개발하고 이를 이용하여 성토부끝에 sheet pile을 타설하거나 혹은 성토부아래의 연약정토지반을 개취하였을 때의 변형억제효과를 연구한 것이다. 본고에 적용된 압밀리론으로서 Biot의 압밀방정식과 구성방정식으로서 탄소성리론에 근거한 modified Cam-clay 이론을 적용하였고 유한요소해석으로서는 Christian-Boehmer계를 도입하여 program화한 것이다. 그 주요한 결론은 다음과 같다. 1. 속변지반의 침하효과에 관해서는 sheet pile이나 심우혼합처새깊이를 자지층까지 관입하여 시공하고 그 자신의 침하가 없을 경우에만 유효하다. 2. 흔히 사용되는 sheet pile대책공법은 통상의 steel sheet pile의 각성으로서는 성토직후의 봉기, 측방변위의 억제효과는 기대할 수 없다. 3. Sheet pile에 대한 예상론인 사용방법은 성토하부에 세밀을 촉진하기 위해 vertical drain을 설치하고 점증재하 방법만이 확실한 효과가 있다. 4. 체층혼합처리공법은 예상한 바와 같이 그 자종가 강성이 클수록 침하억제핵과가 있다. 특히 grouting을 통한 지반강화가 곧장 주변지반의 변형억제효과가 있다고 단정하는 것은 그 강성 까 관련하여 신중히 고려하여 결정해야 한다.

본 논문은 탄성지반위에 놓인 비국소 자기-전기-탄성 나노 판의 구조안정에 관하여 1차 전단변형이론을 이용하여 분석하였다. 4변이 단순지지된 자기-전기-탄성 나노 판의 좌굴하중을 구하기 위하여 Navier 방법을 적용하였다. 기존의 연구들에서는 2방향 좌굴해석은 거의 연구되지 않았다. Maxwell 방정식과 자기-전기 경계조건에 따라 자기-전기-탄성 나노 판의 두께 방향에 따른 자위 및 전위의 변화가 결정된다. 자기-전기-탄성 나노 판의 탄성이론을 재 공식화하기 위하여 Eringen의 비국소 미분 구성 관계식을 사용하였고 변분이론을 이용하여 비국소 탄성이론의 지배방정식을 연구하였다. 탄성지반의 효과는 Pasternak의 가정을 적용하였다. 비국소 이론과 국소 이론의 관계를 계산 결과를 통하여 분석하였다. 또한, 전위 및 자위의 크기, 비국소 매개변수, 탄성지반 매개변수 그리고 폭-두께 비에 따른 구조적 안정문제를 연구하였다. 분석 결과들은 전위 및 자위의 효과를 나타내었다. 이러한 계산 결과들은 자기-전기-탄성 재료로 구성된 신소재 구조물에 관한 향후 연구의 비교자료가 될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper was carried out to investigate the existence of a unique stress- strain behavior by obtaining some factors influencing the time dependent stress- strain behavior of clay. The results obtained from this study were summarized as follows ; 1. The relationship between stress ratro and strain in normally consolidated clay was in- dependent on pre-shear consolidation pressure. Therefore, shear strain could be expressed as a function with stress ratio. 2. The constitutive equation of shear strain on Modified Carn Clay Model coincided better with the observed value than Cam Clay Model. 3. The relationships between deviator stress and shear strain, between pore water pressure and shear strain were unified by the mean equivalent pressure. 4. The shear strain contour in norrnally consolidated clay was increased linearly through origin, but that in overconsolidated clay was not in accordance with the result of the former. 5. Because the effective stress path of normally consolidated clay was unified by the mean equivalent pressure, state boundary surface in (e,p,q) space was transformed into two dimensional surface. But it was considered to be suitable that the unified stress- strain in overconsolidated clay be expressed by a function with overconsolidation ratio. 6. The deviator for constant strain was increased linearly with increment of strain rate ($\varepsilon$) on semi-log scale, but pore water pressure was decreased. 7. The behavior of stress relaxation was transformed from linear to curvilinear with inc - rement of strain rate before stress relaxation test, and pore water pressure was increased in total range. 8. The strain of creep was increased linearly with increment of time on semi-log scale. The greater the strain rate before creep test became, the greater the increment of strain of creep became. And the pore water pressure during creep test was increased generally with increment of time on semi-log scale.

A novel laminated-hybrid-composite-beam (LHCB) of glass-epoxy infused with flyash and graphene is constructed for this study. The conventional mixture-rule and constitutive-relationship are modified to incorporate filler and lamina orientation. Eringen's non-local-theory is used to include the filler effect. Hamilton's principle based on fifth-order-layer-wise-shear-deformation-theory is applied to formulate the equation of motion. The analogous shear-spring-models for LHCB with multiple-cracks are employed in finite-element-analysis (FEA). Modal-experimentations are conducted (B&K-analyser) and the findings are compared with theoretical and FEA results. In terms of dimensionless relative-natural-frequencies (RNF), the dynamic-response in cantilevered support is investigated for various relative-crack-severities (RCSs) and relative-crack-positions (RCPs). The increase of RCS increases local-flexibility in LHCB thus reductions in RNFs are observed. RCP is found to play an important role, cracks present near the end-support cause an abrupt drop in RNFs. Further, multiple cracks are observed to enhance the nonlinearity of LHCB strength. Introduction of the first to third crack in an intact LHCB results drop of RNFs by 8%, 10%, and 11.5% correspondingly. Also, it is demonstrated that the RNF varies because of the lamina-orientation, and filler addition. For 0° lamina-orientation the RNF is maximum. Similarly, it is studied that the addition of graphene reduces weight and increases the stiffness of LHCB in contrast to the addition of flyash. Additionally, the response of LHCB to moving mass is accessed by appropriately modifying the numerical programs, and it is noted that the successive introduction of the first to ninth crack results in an approximately 40% to 120% increase in the dynamic-amplitude-ratio.
