In this study, the peak stress of a fuillet in elastic structure was optimized to have minimum value by using quadratic isoparametric element. The method of auomatic gridding was also developed along with shape algorithm and design element technique was adopted in selecting design variables. The computer program developed was combined with the Hooke-Jeeves direct algorithm of optimization techniques in order to minimize the peak stress of the fillet. The imployment of design element technique significantly cut down computer time by the reduction in design variables, and the opitmum fillet shape with uniform minimum stress was obtained by varying design variables along x and y directions in improving the shape compared to other results. By using automatic gridding, in which Bezier surfaces and Coons surfaces of cubic interpolation were employed, the irregular boundary was removed resulting in smoother anbd more accurate fillet shape possessing uniform minimum stress.

Many studies on the finite element modeling for bolted joints have proceeded, but the structures with bolted joints are complicated in shape and it is difficult to find out the characteristics according to joint condition. Usually, experimental methods have been used for bolted joint analysis. A reliable and practical finite element modeling technique for structure with bolted joints is very important for engineers in industry. In this study, three kinds of model are presented; a detailed model, a practical model and a simple model. The detailed model is modeled by using 3-D solid element and gap element, and the practical model is modeled by using shell element (a portion of bolt head) and beam element (a portion of bolt body), the simple model is modeled by simplifying practical model without using gap elements. Among these models, the simple model has the least degree of freedom and show the effect of memory reduction of 59%, when compared with the detailed model.

To increase the enthalpy exchange efficiency of ERV elements, the moisture exchange character must be improved. The moisture exchange efficiency depends on material characteristics. The material used for ERV is Hwang-to paper based on Han-ji which is Korean traditional paper. The paper has excellent performance in moisture exchange and heat transfer compared with polymer and other papers. To have an anti bacteria performance and to improve moisture exchange performance of Han-ji, Hwang-to is added to the Han-ji. The enthalpy exchange efficiency of the Hwang-to paper shows 5% greater than that of the conventional paper. In case of Escherichia Coli, the reduction rate of bacteria is 96.6% and in case of Pseudomonas, the reduction rate of bacteria is 97.5%. The ERV element made of Hwang-to paper has a great possibility as an ERV element.

This study presents a finite element simulation of elastic waves for detecting anti-symmetric damages in an adhesively-bonded single lap joint. Plane strain elements were used for modeling adherents (aluminum) and adhesives (epoxy). Three types of damage were introduced: thickness reduction, elasticity deterioration, and voids in the adhesive layers, and two excitation and reception arrangements (ER1 and ER2) were used to investigate the detectability of the damage. The simulation showed that symmetrically located damage, such as a thickness reduction, can be detected by one excitation and one reception arrangement (ER1) and anti-symmetric damages, such as elasticity deterioration and voids, can be detected by modified two-point elastic wave excitation (ER2). Compared with the ER1 arrangement, the ER2 arrangement does not require a baseline signal for damage detection; hence, an efficient method of anti-symmetric damage detection in an adhesively-bonded single lap joint is proposed.

The paper describes the development of a two-dimensional (2D) co-rotational nonlinear beam finite element that includes advanced path-following capabilities for detecting bifurcation instability in elasto-plasticity of steel elements subjected to fire without introducing imperfections. The advantage is twofold: i) no need to assume the magnitude of the imperfections and consequent reduction of the model complexity; ii) the presence of possible critical points is checked at each converged time step based on the actual load and stiffness distribution in the structure that is affected by the temperature field in the elements. In this way, the buckling modes at elevated temperature, that may be different from the ones at ambient temperature, can be properly taken into account. Moreover, an improved displacement predictor for estimating the displacement field allowed significant reduction of the computational cost. A co-rotational framework was exploited for describing the beam kinematic. In order to highlight the potential practical implications of the developed finite element, a parametric analysis was performed to investigate how the beam element compares both with the EN1993-1-2 buckling curve and with experimental tests on axially compressed steel members. Validation against experimental data and numerical outcomes obtained with commercial software is thoroughly described.

This paper is on the research of the special character of the dynamic response according to a design of the clamped reinforced concrete slab. In this study, the 20-node solid element has been used to analyze the dynamic characteristics of RC slabs with clamped edges. The elasto-visco plastic model for material non-linearity and the smeared crack model have been adopted in the finite element formulation. The design factor, which affect the dynamic response of the reinforced concrete slab, are the steel layer thickness, steel layer depth, steel layout method, steel layout angle and the slab thickness and span ratio. The main purpose of this study was to find out the dynamic response of the reinforced concrete slab according to above variables. The reduction of deflection/thickness ratio appeared less than 2% when the slab thickness between 20 and 21cm. It is desirable that the slab thickness must be above 20-21cm. The reduction ratio of deflection is appeared greatly when the value of the span/thickness ratio is between 25 and 30. In conclusion, the steel layer depth and thickness had a little effect on deflection of the dynamic response, but had no effect on the steel layout angle.

Recent trends to reduce the size of mobile electronics products have driven miniaturization of various components, including screw parts for assembling components. Considering that the size reduction of screws may degenerate their joining capabilities, the size reduction should not be limited to the thread region but should be extended to its head region. The screw head is usually manufactured by forging in which a profiled punch presses a billet so that plastic deformation occurs to form the desired shape. In this study, finite element (FE) analysis was performed to simulate the forging process of a subminiature screw; a screw head of 1.7 mm diameter is formed out of a 0.82 mm diameter billet. The FE analysis result indicates that this severe forging condition leads to a generation of folding defects. FE analyses were further performed to find appropriate punch design parameters that minimize the amount of folding defects.

According to the variation of hydrostatic pressure on the central axis of deformable material, the V-shaped central bursting defect may be created in extrusion or drawing processes. The process factors which affect the generation of defects are semi-angle of die, reduction ratio of cross-sectional area, friction factor, material properties and so on. The combination of these factors can determine the possibility of defect creation and the shape of various round holes which have been created inside already. By the rigid plastic finite element method, this paper describes the observations of change in shape of round holes with process conditions such as semi-angle of die, reduction ratio of cross-sectional area and friction factor at the non-steady state of axisymmetrical extrusion process when the round hole is already existed inside the original billet. Also, the effects of process factors are investigated to prevent the possible defects.

In order to improve the environmental vibration, it is necessary to method for not only reduce the vibration source, but also control the vibration path. In this study, we used borebole for estimate the vibration reduction. And also, we analyzed displacement and vibration velocity caused by the position of borehole as well as the condition of borehole in ground structure. Visual FEA(Finite Element Analysis) program was used in this numerical analysis. The results are as follows : The displacement magnitude and X, Y direction displacement were represented to different results due to the condition and position of borehole, and were represented to the lowest values when the position of borehole is the most close condition from the vibration source. And also, the vibration velocity was decreased as using borebole in ground structure. The isolation efficiency of the vibration was calculated to maximum 18.40% when borehole was established to the most close position from the vibration source and the receive point.
