A three-dimensional elastoplastic constitutive model, also known as a UH model (Yao et al. 2009), was developed to describe the stress-strain relationship for normally consolidated and over-consolidated soils. In this paper, an acoustic tensor and discriminator of bifurcation for the UH model are derived for the strain localization of saturated clays under undrained and fully and partially drained conditions. Analytical analysis is performed to illustrate the points of bifurcation for the UH model with different three-dimensional stress paths. Numerical analyses of cubic specimens for the bifurcation of saturated clays under undrained and fully and partially drained conditions are conducted using ABAQUS with the UH model. Analytical and numerical analyses show the similar bifurcation behaviour of overconsolidated clays in three-dimensional stress states and various drainage conditions. The results of analytical and numerical analyses show that (1) the occurrence of bifurcation is dependent on the stress path and drainage condition; and (2) bifurcation can appear in either a strain-hardening or strain-softening regime.

본 연구에서는 선박의 충돌이나 좌초와 같은 사고의 예방에 기여할 수 있는 가상교통관제시스템의 개념을 소개한다. 지금의 VTS는 사고의 억지효과가 있음에도 불구하고, 그 한계점을 가지고 있다. 그래서 현 시스템을 광역 VTS개념으로 확대 시행하더라도 그 효과에 많은 의문이 발생할 수 있다. 가상교통관제시스템은 인공위성에 의한 해상환경의 리모트센싱과 여기서 얻어진 데이터에 기반을 둔 환경부하 모델(INOUE model)로 구성된다. 인공위성 리모트센싱은 선박, 기상, 해양 정보를 포함하는 대부분의 해상 교통 환경 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있다. 이들 정보를 이용해서 각 선박에 대한 환경 부하를 시뮬레이션 함으로써, 미래의 (예, 5분후) 교통환경을 예측하고, 교통제어를 할 수 있는 시스템을 제시한다. 마지막으로, 인공위성 데이터를 사용해서 선박정보를 추출하는 방법을 보여준다.

An energy based crack growth model is developed in this study to simulate the propagation of top-down cracking in asphalt pavements. A viscoelastic fracture mechanics approach, generalized J integral, is employed to model the crack growth of asphalt concrete. Laboratory fatigue crack propagation tests for three different asphalt mixtures are performed at various load levels, frequencies and temperatures. Disk-shaped specimens with a proper loading fixture and crack growth monitoring system are selected for the tests. It is observed from the tests that the crack propagation model based on the generalized J integral is independent of load levels and frequencies, while the traditional Paris' law model based on stress intensity factor is dependent of loading frequencies. However, both models are unable to take care of the temperature dependence of the mixtures. The fatigue crack propagation model proposed in this study has a good agreement between experimental and predicted crack growth lives, which implies that the energy based J integral could be a better parameter to describe fatigue crack propagation of viscoelastic materials such as asphalt mixtures.

A numerical model that can simulate the nonlinear behavior of ultra high strength fiber-reinforced concrete (UHSFRC) structures subject to monotonic loadings is introduced. Since engineering material properties of UHSFRC are remarkably different from those of normal strength concrete and engineered cementitious composite, classification of the mechanical characteristics related to the biaxial behavior of UHSFRC, from the designation of the basic material properties such as the uniaxial stress-strain relationship of UHSFRC to consideration of the bond stress-slip between the reinforcement and surrounding concrete with fiber, is conducted in this paper in order to make possible accurate simulation of the cracking behavior in UHSFRC structures. Based on the concept of the equivalent uniaxial strain, constitutive relationships of UHSFRC are presented in the axes of orthotropy which coincide with the principal axes of the total strain and rotate according to the loading history. This paper introduces a criterion to simulate the tension-stiffening effect on the basis of the force equilibriums, compatibility conditions, and bond stress-slip relationship in an idealized axial member and its efficiency is validated by comparison with available experimental data. Finally, the applicability of the proposed numerical model is established through correlation studies between analytical and experimental results for idealized UHSFRC beams.

본 연구는 프리스트레스 접속슬래브(PTAS: Post-Tensioned Approach Slab)가 환경하중을 받아 컬링할 때의 거동을 수치해석을 통해 적절히 분석하기 위하여 수행되었다. PTAS의 한쪽 단부가 교대에 힌지로 연결되는 부분을 해석 모형에 적합하게 포함시킬 수 있는 방법을 마련하였으며, 접속슬래브의 헌치 부분을 삭제한 단순 형상의 접속슬래브 모델의 사용성도 분석하였다. 개발한 모델을 이용하여 교대 뒤채움부 침하에 의한 접속슬래브의 컬링 응력 특성을 분석하였다. 연구 결과, PTAS의 단순화 힌지를 포함한 단순 형상 모델은 실제 형상 모델의 최대인장응력을 산출하기에 적합한 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 컬업시에는 하부지반 침하가 없는 PTAS에서 최대인장응력이 도출되었으며, 컬다운 시에는 하부지반 침하가 진행된 PTAS에서 최대인장응력이 발생하므로 이러한 컬링 응력을 고려하여 설계를 수행하는 것이 적절할 것으로 분석되었다.

The operating tasks of overhead crane have caused undue stress to the operators from physical, mental, and environmental workload. Existing workload assessment models for musculoskeletal disorders such as OWAS, RULA, and QEC have limited applicability to the crane operating tasks because they focus mainly on physical factors and do not consider the relative importance of each factor. The present study was to develop a workload assessment model customized to overhead crane operation, following a systematic process: (1) analyzing task characteristics, (2) selecting workload factors, (3) developing assessment methods, (4) establishing action levels, and (5) computerizing the assessment model. Based on literature review, worksite survey, and focus group interview, 4 physical factors (awkward posture, static posture, repetitive motion, and excessive force), 6 mental factors (visual demand, auditory demand, task complexity and difficulty, time urgency, work schedule related stress, and safety related stress), and 4 environmental factors (noise, vibration, dust, and temperature) were selected and their rating scales and relative weights were determined. Then, based on the workload assessment results of 8 overhead cranes operated at different workplaces, the action levels of each factor category were established. Finally, the crane operation assessment model was computerized for effective analysis and report preparation. The present approach is applicable to develop a customized workload assessment model for an operating task under consideration.

A tendon model that can effectively be used in finite element analyses of prestressed concrete (PSC) structures with bonded tendons is proposed on the basis of the bond characteristics between a tendon and its surrounding concrete. Since tensile forces between adjacent cracks are transmitted from a tendon to concrete by bond forces, the constitutive law of a bonded tendon stiffened by grouting is different from that of a bare tendon. Accordingly, the apparent yield stress of an embedded tendon is determined from the bond-slip relationship. The definition of the multi-linear average stress-strain relationship is then obtained through a linear interpolation of the stress difference at the post-yielding stage. Unlike in the case of a bonded tendon, on the other hand, a stress increase beyond the effective prestress in an unbonded tendon is not section-dependent but member-dependent. The tendon stress unequivocally represents a uniform distribution along the length when the friction loss is excluded. Thus, using a strain reduction factor, the modified stress-strain curve of an unbonded tendon is derived by successive iterations. The validity of the proposed two tendon models is verified through correlation studies between analytical and experimental results for PSC beams and slabs.

In this paper, stress contour plots depending on length, load, and diameter of the implant are presented. Depending on the condition and amount of cortical bone, process of implanting can be difficult and stress becomes important. Therefore deciding the right length and diameter of implant is critical. When analyzing stress in the implant, Von-mises yield criterion is often used; however, due to hardship of acquiring the actual material property of surrounding bones, simplified model of a implant was adapted in finite element analysis program of EDISON. The result acquired from EDISON program was then compared with results of different research papers.

투과성이 낮은 셰일층에서의 다단계 수압파쇄 시, 파쇄단계 간의 서로 근접한 균열로 인해 지층 간 응력간섭이 발생하는 '응력그림자효과'가 나타날 수 있다. 이로 인해 균열의 전파 방향성이 변화하거나 비정형적인 형태의 균열이 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 응력그림자효과의 영향에 따른 수압파쇄 균열형태와 생산성을 분석하고자 상용 수압파쇄 시뮬레이터 full-3D모델인 'GOHFER'를 사용하였다. 균질한 저류층 모델에서 응력그림자효과 고려 유무에 따른 분석을 수행하였다. 또한 지력학적 물성이 다른 두 셰일층에서 수압파쇄 모델링을 수행하여 영률과 포아송비에 따른 응력그림자효과를 분석하였다. 선행 파쇄단계의 균열로 인한 응력변화는 최대/최소 주응력을 역전시켜 T-방향보다는 생산성이 미비한 L-방향 균열이 주로 형성되었다. 또한 Marcellus 셰일의 경우 연성 특성을 갖는 Eagle Ford 셰일에 비해 높은 취성으로 인해 균열의 폭이 더 두껍게 형성되어 균열 체적이 더욱 크게 산출되었다. Marcellus 셰일지층의 영률이 Eagle Ford 셰일에 비해 크게 낮기 때문에 stage 2에서 응력그림자효과의 영향을 적게 받는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이처럼 응력그림자효과는 균열 간의 간격 뿐만 아니라 지력학적 물성에 따라서도 크게 달라진다. 그러므로 좀 더 정확한 균열 형태와 현실성 있는 생산성 예측하기 위해 응력그림자효과는 고려되어야 한다.

This study provides a simplified method for the evaluation of shear lag stress in rectangular box T-joints. The occurrence of shear lag phenomenon in the box T-joint generates stress concentration localized at both web-flange junctions of the beam, which leads to cracking or failure in the weld region of the joint. To prevent such critical circumstance, peak stress at the weld region is required to be checked during a preliminary design stage. In this paper, the shear lag stresses in the T-joints were evaluated using least-work solution in which the longitudinal displacements of the beam flange and web were presumed. The evaluation process considered particularly the effect of column flange flexibility, which was represented by an axial spring model, on the shear lag stress distribution. A simplified method for stress evaluation was provided to avoid solving complex mathematical problems using a stress modification factor β_s from a parametric study. The results showed that the proposed method was valid for predicting the shear lag stress in the box T-joints manually, as well compared with finite element results. The results are further summarized, discussed, and clarified that more flexible column flange caused higher stress concentration.
