During supersonic flight of vehicles, the thermal behavior of structures under high-temperature environment is important for thermal-structural design. In this study, full-field thermal deformation and stress concentration of the notched structure was performed using global-local multi-digital image correlation (multi-DIC) systems. This techniques were developed and implemented by multi-DIC systems consists of 2D DIC system and 3D DIC system. The specimen was heated in a heating chamber to achieve the thermal expansion behavior. Then the images of structure's deformation and stress concentration at various temperature were recorded and analyzed by multi-DIC system. Afterward, full-field thermal deformation of the notched structure was determined with DIC technique and stress concentration at the notched structure was calculated by further processing. Finite element analysis of the notched structure is performed in ABAQUS^TM and the results of the experiments show good agreement with those obtained from simulation. The results achieved in this study show the efficiency of the muilti-DIC method in thermal deformation as well as stress concentration of notched structure.

A stable procedure is presented to attain most probable and unbiased estimate of principal strain, rotation, and dilatation for 2-dimensional geodetic data on triangular network. The proper network size should be chosen carefully, because the errors of these estimates of strain tensor and other associated observables grow inversely proportional to the area of station triangle. As a case study, the deformation observables for the GPS-monitored co-seismic displacement in Korea due to the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake were attained accordingly.

Let (M^m, g) be an m-dimensional Riemannian manifold. In this paper, we introduce a new class of metric on (M^m, g), obtained by a non-conformal deformation of the metric g. First we investigate the Levi-Civita connection of this metric. Secondly we characterize the Riemannian curvature, the sectional curvature and the scalar curvature. In the last section we characterizes some class of proper biharmonic maps. Examples of proper biharmonic maps are constructed when (M^m, g) is an Euclidean space.

Modern multidisciplinary computational fluid dynamics often incorporates moving boundaries, as would be required in the applications such as design optimization, aeroelasticity, or forced boundary motion. It is challenging to develop robust, efficient grid deformation algorithms when large displacement of the moving boundaries is required. In this paper, a volume grid deformation code is developed based on the finite macro-element and the transfinite Interpolation, and then interfaces to a structured multi-block Navier-Stokes in-house code. As demonstrated by an airfoil with pitching motion, the hysteresis loops of lift, drag and moment coefficients of the developed method are shown to be in good agreement with those of experimental data.

Loads on the pillar and ground deformation in 2-arch tunnel, which is excavated in the rock mass with regular discontinuities, depending on the dips of discontinuities and the construction sequences were experimentally studied. Large scale model tests in the biaxial test facility were performed. Tested model (width 3.3m, height 3.0m, and length 0.45m) for 2-arch tunnel in 1/10 scale were built with various dips. Test results show that discontinuities have greate affects on the behavior of the 2-arch tunnel, especially on the pillar loads and ground deformation.

The skin-frame type structure is designed to investigate the thermal deformation of the wing skin induced by the temperature gradient. In order to effectively simulate the temperature gradient on the wing specimen, a water cooling system is devised on the frame of the specimen. Out of surface skin deformation of the skin-frame type structure made of SUS304 material with respect to the temperature is successfully measured using the digital image correlation (DIC) technique including quantitative evaluation of the measurement uncertainty.

In this paper, the aeroelastic static response of flexible wings with arbitrary cross-section geometry via a coupled CUF-XFLR5 approach is presented. Refined structural one-dimensional (1D) models, with a variable order of expansion for the displacement field, are developed on the basis of the Carrera Unified Formulation (CUF), taking into account cross-sectional deformability. A three-dimensional (3D) Panel Method is employed for the aerodynamic analysis, providing more accuracy with respect to the Vortex Lattice Method (VLM). A straight wing with an airfoil cross-section is modeled as a clamped beam, by means of the finite element method (FEM). Numerical results present the variation of wing aerodynamic parameters, and the equilibrium aeroelastic response is evaluated in terms of displacements and in-plane cross-section deformation. Aeroelastic coupled analyses are based on an iterative procedure, as well as a linear coupling approach for different free stream velocities. A convergent trend of displacements and aerodynamic coefficients is achieved as the structural model accuracy increases. Comparisons with 3D finite element solutions prove that an accurate description of the in-plane cross-section deformation is provided by the proposed 1D CUF model, through a significant reduction in computational cost.

The moisture absorption behavior of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) and its effect on dimensional stability were examined. Moisture diffusivity in CFRP was determined by measuring a specimen's weight during the moisture absorption test. Three types of CFRP specimens were prepared: a unidirectionally reinforced laminate, a quasi-isotropic laminate and woven fabric. Each CFRP was processed into two geometries - a thin plate for determination of diffusivity and a rod with a square cross-section for the discussion of two-dimensional diffusion behavior. By solving Fick's law expanded to 3 dimensions, the diffusivities in the three orthogonal directions were obtained and analyzed in terms of the anisotropy of CFRP moisture diffusion. Coefficients of moisture expansion (CMEs) were also obtained from specimen deformation caused by moisture absorption. During moisture absorption, the specimen surfaces showed larger deformation near the edges due to the distribution of moisture contents. This deformation was reasonably predicted by the finite element analysis using experimentally determined diffusivities and CMEs. For unidirectional CFRP, the effect of the fiber alignment on CME was analyzed by micromechanical finite element analysis (FEA) and discussed.

Longitudinal deformation profile(LDP) has been obtained mostly by numerical analysis. In this study, LDP was plotted by measured data from horizontal inclinometer and crown settlement. Deformation of foe ahead was determined by comparing to the maximum deformation point and deformation of after excavation was determined by regression of the measured crown settlement data. The result shows that crown deformation began as f3r as 3D ahead of the face. Crown settlement at the face was 40% of ultimate deformation, which was 10% higher than numerical results, and the deformation converged after excavation of 4D.
