본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 이용하여 암반에 근입된 현장타설말뚝의 말뚝-지반 상호작용즉, 지반의 연속성을 고려한 하중전이해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 주면 하중전이함수를 사용자 정의의 경계면 모델(FRIC)로 구현하여 말뚝지반의 미끄러짐 거동과 하중전이 거동을 모델링 하였다. 본 연구결과, 주면마찰력에 의해 발생되는 선단침하량으로 대변되는 지반 연속성 영향은 주면마찰력이 극한상태로 도달할 때까지 증가함을 알 수 있었으며, 말뚝직경과 암반계수의 비(D/$E_{mass}$), 전체하중에서 주면마찰력의 비($R_s$/Q)에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 현장재하시험 사례와의 비교분석 결과, FRIC을 이용한 유한요소해석방법은 말뚝의 하중전이 거동과 말뚝-지반 상호작용 효과(coupling effect)를 적절히 나타낼 수 있었으며, 말뚝의 거동을 예측하는데 크게 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

포장재료의 역학적 특성을 대표하는 회복탄성계수는 '86 AASHTO 설계법에서 노상의 기본입력 물성치로 적용한 이후 포장 설계, 해석뿐 아니라 포장 평가, 유지관리 등에도 보편적 개념으로 정착되어 가고 있다. 국내 노상토의 회복탄성계수는 함수비와 건조단위중량으로 대표되는 재료적 요인과 축차응력 및 구속응력에 대단히 큰 영향을 받고 있고, 하중주파수의 영향은 있으나 그 정도가 크지 않고, 하중반복횟수의 영향은 무시 가능한 것으로 알려져 있다(건설교통부 2003). 따라서 국내 포장재료에 따른 회복탄성계수의 적절한 평가는 국내 포장구조체의 역학거동 및 공용성 평가를 위해 매우 중요한 사항이다. 이와 같은 배경으로 본 연구에서는 국내 노상토 재료의 역학적 특성 변화를 포장 단면설계에 합리적으로 반영하기 위한 노상토 해석모델을 제안하였고, 제안된 모델을 적용한 유한요소해석 결과와 시험도로 실측치와의 비교 검증을 통해 제안된 모델의 신뢰성을 검증하였다.

In tied-arch bridges, a properly designed connection between the arch and the deck may become crucial, since the forces in the structure may be significantly reduced. This implies substantial material savings and, consequently, cheaper constructions. The introduction of the Nielsen cable arrangement (composed of V-shaped inclined hangers) in the last century was a milestone because it was able to reduce deflections and bending moments both in the arch and in the deck. So far, the Nielsen cable arrangement has proven to be successful in traditional vertical arch bridges. However, despite its advantages, it has not been widely applied to spatial arch bridges. Thus, this article analyses the difference between the structural behavior of spatial arch bridges with Nielsen-type cable arrangements with respect to those with classical vertical hanger configurations. The main goal is to verify whether the known effectiveness of the Nielsen cable arrangement for classical arch bridges is still preserved when applied to spatial arch bridges. In order to achieve this objective, and as the first part of our study, a set of different all-steel bridges composed of vertical and inclined arches with straight decks have been compared for both cable arrangements. As a major conclusion, for planar vertical arch bridges, the Nielsen-type cable arrangement is always the most effective. In addition, it also seems that, for spatial arch bridges composed of a straight deck and an inclined arch, it still keeps most of its effectiveness as long as the arch is moderately inclined.

Objective: This study aimed to compare the mechanical and thermal properties in the anterior and posterior segments of new and retrieved specimens of a commercially available multizone superelastic nickel-titanium (NiTi) archwire. Methods: The following groups of 0.016 × 0.022-inch Bioforce NiTi archwires were compared: a) anterior and b) posterior segments of new specimens and c) anterior and d) posterior segments of retrieved specimens. Six specimens were evaluated in each group, by three-point bending and bend and free recovery tests. Bending moduli (Eb) were calculated. Furthermore, the new specimens were evaluated with scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry. A multiple linear regression model with a random intercept at the wire level was applied for data analysis. Results: The forces in the posterior segments or new specimens were higher than those recorded in the anterior segments or retrieved specimens, respectively. Accordingly, Eb also varied. Higher austenite start and austenite finish (Af) temperatures were recorded in the anterior segments. No statistically significant differences were found for these temperatures between retrieved and new wires. The mean elemental composition was (weight percentage): Ni, 52.6 ± 0.5; Ti, 47.4 ± 0.5. Conclusions: The existence of multiple force zones was confirmed in new and retrieved Bioforce archwires. The retrieved archwires demonstrated lower forces during the initial stages of deactivation in three-point bending tests, compared with new specimens. The Af temperature of these archwires may lie higher than the regular intraoral temperature. Even at 2 mm deflections, the forces recorded from these archwires may lie beyond biologically safe limits.

말뚝의 하중전이거동 및 변형특성 해석을 위해 하중전이함수법이 널리 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 말뚝-지반의 상효작용 즉, 지반의 연속성을 고려한 하중전이해석에 고찰하였으며, Mindlin 해를 이용하여 이를 고려함으로써 말뚝의 실제 거동에 보다 부합되도록 수정된 하중전이 해석방법을 제안하였다. 이를 통해 말뚝-지반 상호작용의 영향인자인 말뚝직경-지반계수의 비$(D/E_s)$과 주면마찰력-재하하중의 비$(R_s/Q)$를 고려할 수 있었다. 제안된 하중전이함수법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 현장재하시험 사례와의 비교분석 결과, 제안된 해석방법은 암반 근입 현장타설말뚝의 하중-침하 거동 및 하중전이특성을 적절히 예측함을 알 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 아스팔트 포장의 표층을 구성하고 있는 아스팔트 혼합물의 점탄성(Viscoelasticity) 거동을 규명하기 위하여 먼저 기존의 일반적인 역학적 모델을 고찰하였으며, 차량의 단일 축 하중을 고려한 점탄성 모델식을 제안하고 그 모델에 대한 기본식을 유도하였다. 또한, 제안된 모델식의 검증을 위해서 시험구간에 대하여 비파괴시험을 실시하였으며 하중 이력에 따른 변형률과 처짐값을 산출하고 이를 제안된 모델식의 계산값과 비교분석하였다. 분석 결과, 시험값과 모델식의 결과값의 오차가 거의 없음을 알 수 있었으며, 시간에 따른 처짐의 양상만을 비교해 볼 때, 본 연구에서 제안한 모델식에 의해서 실제 하중에 의한 포장의 처짐을 예측하는 것이 가능하다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다.

본 연구는 휨연결재와 횡방향 프리스트레스력으로 보강된 분절 PSC(Prestressed Concrete) 거더의 정적거동 성능을 검증하는데 목적이 있다. 정적거동 성능을 검증하기 위하여 4개의 분절거더와 1개의 일체거더를 제작하여 실험하였다. 분절거더와 일체거더는 동일 제원 및 재료를 적용하여 4.8 m 길이로 제작하여 실험하였다. 3개의 횡방향으로 보강된 분절거더의 정적거동 성능을 검증하기 위해 일체거더와 횡방향으로 보강되지 않은 분절거더가 기준이 되는 실험체로 실험을 수행하였다. 거더 중앙 경간에서 처짐을 측정하였으며 중앙 경간과 연결부에서 변형률을 측정하였다. 극한하중상태에서 횡방향으로 보강된 분절거더는 일체거더와 비교하여 극한강도가 동등이상의 성능을 나타내며 강성측면에서는 다소 불리하게 거동함을 알 수 있었다. 하지만, 횡방향으로 보강된 분절거더는 보강되지 않은 분절거더에 비하여 강도 및 강성측면에서 모두 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

In the present work, bending and free vibration analyses of multilayered functionally graded (FG) graphene platelet (GPL) and fiber-reinforced hybrid composite beams are carried out using the parabolic function based shear deformation theory. Parabolic variation of transverse shear stress across the thickness of beam and transverse shear stress-free conditions at top and bottom surfaces of the beam are considered, and the proposed formulation incorporates a transverse displacement field. The present theory works only with four unknowns and is computationally efficient. Hamilton's principle has been employed for deriving the governing equations. Analytical solutions are obtained for both the bending and free vibration problems in the present work considering different variations of GPLs and fibers distribution, namely, FG-X, FG-U, FG-Λ, and FG-O for beams having simply-supported boundary condition. First, the matrix is assumed to be strengthened using GPLs, and then the fibers are embedded. Multiscale modeling for material properties of functionally graded graphene platelet/fiber hybrid composites (FG-GPL/FHRC) is performed using Halpin-Tsai micromechanical model. The study reveals that the distributions of GPLs and fibers have significant impacts on the stresses, deflections, and natural frequencies of the beam. The number of layers and shape factors widely affect the behavior of FG-GPL-FHRC beams. The multilayered FG-GPL-FHRC beams turn out to be a good approximation to the FG beams without exhibiting the stress-channeling effects.

High-rise structures are considered as symbols of economic power and leadership. Developing countries like India are also emerging as centers for new high-rise buildings (HRB). As the land is expensive and scarce everywhere, construction of tall buildings becomes the best solution to resolve the problem. But, as building's height increases, its stiffness reduces making it more susceptible to vibrations due to wind and earthquake forces. Several systems are available to control vibrations or deflections; however, outrigger systems are considered to be the most effective systems in improving lateral stiffness and overall stability of HRB. In this paper, a 42-storey RCC HRB is analyzed to determine the optimum position of outriggers of different materials. The linear static analysis of the building is performed with and without the provision of virtual outriggers of reinforced cement concrete (RCC) and pre-stressed concrete (PSC) at different storey levels by response spectrum method using finite element based Extended3D Analysis of building System (ETABS) software for determining responses viz. storey displacement, base shear and storey drift for individual models. The maximum allowable limit and percentage variations in earthquake responses are verified using the guidelines of Indian seismic codes. Results indicate that the outriggers contribute in significantly reducing the storey displacement and storey drift up to 28% and 20% respectively. Also, it is observed that the PSC outriggers are found to be more efficient over RCC outriggers. The optimum location of both types of outriggers is found to be at the mid height of building.

The present research investigates the thermodynamically bending behavior of FG sandwich plates, laying on the Winkler/Pasternak/Kerr foundation with various boundary conditions, subjected to harmonic thermal load varying through thickness. The supposed FG sandwich plate has three layers with a ceramic core. The constituents' volume fractions of the lower and upper faces vary gradually in the direction of the FG sandwich plate thickness. This variation is performed according to various models: a Power law, Trigonometric, Viola-Tornabene, and the Exponential model, while the core is constantly homogeneous. The displacement field considered in the current work contains integral terms and fewer unknowns than other theories in the literature. The corresponding equations of motion are derived based on Hamilton's principle. The impact of the distribution model, scheme, aspect ratio, side-to-thickness ratio, boundary conditions, and elastic foundations on thermodynamic bending are examined in this study. The deflections obtained for the sandwich plate without elastic foundations have the lowest values for all boundary conditions. In addition, the minimum deflection values are obtained for the exponential volume fraction law model. The sandwich plate's non-dimensional deflection increases as the aspect ratio increases for all distribution models.
