본 연구에서는 입도분급에 의한 미분시멘트(FC)를 사용한 콘크리트의 강도 발현해석에 있어 FC 치환률 증가에 따른 분말도 변동이 콘크리트의 강도발현에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 기존 등가재령방법에 분말도의 영향을 고려할 수 있는 겉보기 활성화 에너지 모델을 이용하는 방법으로 FC 치환 콘크리트의 강도발현해석을 실시하고자 한다. 연구결과에 따르면 FC 치환률 변화에 따른 시멘트의 분말도 증가를 수화반응속도에 반영한 겉보기 활성화 에너지(Ea)식을 이용하여 강도발현 해석을 수행한 결과 예상과 다르게 FC 치환률이 증가함에 따라 상당부분 정확도가 저하하는 것으로 나타났고, 기존의 응결시간에 의한 방법보다도 역시 정확도가 저하함을 알 수 있었다. 금후의 과제로서 분말도의 영향을 보다 합리적으로 고려할 수 있는 Ea 산정모델의 개발을 통해 FC 치환률에 따른 콘크리트의 정확한 강도발현 해석을 수행할 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This study investigates the strength durability of an automotive front bumper subjected to vibrations during driving. Through structural analyses,the maximum equivalent stresses of models 1 and 2 were found to be 187.09 and 278.4 MPa, respectively. The maximum deformations of models 1 and 2 were 1.3772 and 2.675 mm, respectively. As model 1 shows less deformation than model 2, itis stronger than model 2. Models 1and 2 show natural frequencies within 230 Hz as the range of the maximum harmonic response frequency. Models 1 and 2 have maximum amplitude displacements of 0.105 and 0.154 mm at critical frequencies of 159 and 110 Hz, respectively. As model 1 has a higher critical frequency than model 2, it has more strength durability than model 2. This study result can be effectively utilized for the design of a front bumper by investigating prevention against damage and its strength durability.

The curing temperature is known to influence the rate of mechanical properties development of early age concrete. In realistic sites the temperature of concrete is not isothermal $20^{\circ}C$, so the paper measured adiabatic temperature increases of four different concretes to understand heat emission during hydration at early age. The temperature-matching curing schedule in accordance with adiabatic temperature increase is adopted to simulate the situation in real massive concrete. The specimens under temperature-matching curing are subjected to realistic temperature for first few days as well as adiabatic condition. The mechanical properties including compressive strength, splitting strength and modulus of elasticity of concretes cured under both temperature-matching curing and isothermal $20^{\circ}C$ curing are investigated. The results denote that comparing temperature-matching curing with isothermal $20^{\circ}C$ curing, the early age concretes mechanical properties are obviously improved, but the later mechanical properties of concretes with pure Portland and containing silica fume are decreased a little and still increased for concretes containing fly ash and slag. On this basement using an equivalent age approach evaluates mechanical properties of early age concrete in real structures, the model parameters are defined by the compressive strength test, and can predict the compressive strength, splitting strength and elasticity modulus through measuring or calculating by finite element method the concreted temperature at early age, and the method is valid, which is applied in a concrete wall for evaluation of crack risking.

It has been well hewn that ductile fracture of steels is accelerated by triaxial stresses. The characteristics of ductile crack initiation in steels are evaluated quantitatively using a two-parameters criterion based on equivalent plastic strain and stress triaxiality. The present study focuses on the effects of strength mismatch, which can elevate plastic constraint due to heterogeneous plastic straining, on the critical condition for ductile fracture initiation usinga two-parameter criterion. Fracture initiation testing has been conducted under static loading using notched round bar specimens which had different notch locations. This study provides the fundamental clarification of the effect of strength mismatching and effect of notch location on the critical condition to ductile crack initiation from notch root using fuite element method and ultrasonic-mechatronics system. The critical condition of ductile crack initiation from notch root of strength mismatched tensile specimens under static loading appeared to be almost the same as those of homogeneous tensile specimens with circumferential sharp notch specimen. Also, the effect of notch location in mismatched specimens was estimated using finite element(FE) analyses.

This study performed a precise dynamic finite element time history elastic-plastic seismic analysis considering the welds, which have been not considered in design stage, on the nuclear components subjected to severe seismic loadings such as beyond-design basis earthquakes for sustainable nuclear power plants. First, the dynamic finite element elastic-plastic seismic analysis was performed for a general design practice that does not take into account the welds of the pressurizer surge line system, one of safety class I components in nuclear power plants, and then the reference values for the accumulated equivalent plastic strain, equivalent plastic strain, and von Mises effective stress were set. Second, the dynamic finite element elastic-plastic seismic analyses were performed for the case of considering only the mechanical strength over-mismatch of the welds as well as for the case of considering both the strength over-mismatch and welding residual strain. Third, the effects of the strength over-mismatch and welding residual strain were analyzed by comparing the finite element analysis results with the reference values. As a result of the comparison, it was found that not considering the strength over-mismatch may lead to conservative assessment results, whereas not considering the welding residual strain may be non-conservative.

This study was conducted to investigate the strength of soil cement for varied curing temperatures (0,10,20,30,40,50,60$^{\circ}C$) and cement content (3,6,9,12%) in four cement-stabilized soils (KY: sand, MH: sand, SS: sandy loam, JJ:loam). The experimental results obtained from unconfined compressive strength tests were as follows: 1. According to increase of curing temperature as 30,40,50, and 60$^{\circ}C$, the unconfiened compressive strength of soil cement increased, the rate of increase in the early curing period was large, and around 120 hours was suifficient curing time to complete hardening. 2. The strength at 10$^{\circ}C$ decreased to the rate of 30 to 40 percent than that of 20$^{\circ}C$ while the strength at 0$^{\circ}C$ was very small, strength of soil cement increased in cold weather unless that the temperature was below 0$^{\circ}C$ 3. The average maximum temperature, about 30$^{\circ}C$ during July and August in Korea may be recommended for a optimum construction period to increase the strength of soil cement. 4. Accelerated curing time that strength was equivalent to 28-Day norma1 curing decreased in accordance with the increase of curing temperature, and also accelerated curing decreased the effect of cement content. Accelerated curing that strength was equivalent to 28-day normal curing for soil cement of cement content 9% and temperature 60$^{\circ}C$ was 45 hours; KY, 50 hours: MH, 40 hours; SS, 34 hours; JJ. 5. According to the increase of the percent passing of No. 200 sieve, accelerated curing times became shorter to become the required stength. 6. Relation between accelerated curing times and normal curing days was showeda linear of which slope decreased in accordance with the increase of curing temperature, it may be expressed as follows: (1). 30$^{\circ}C$ t=3.6d+6(r=0.97) (2). 40$^{\circ}C$ t=3.2d-5.1(r=0.95) (3). 50$^{\circ}C$ t=2.1d-4.0(r=0.93) (4). 60$^{\circ}C$ t=1.4d+4.0(r=0.90) in which t=accelerate curing time. d=normal curing day. 7. Accelerated curing time that the strength was equivalent to 35kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ which was the strength of cement brick was 96 hours at temperature 30$^{\circ}C$ to SS 9%, and 120 hours at temperature 50$^{\circ}C$ to JJ 9%, Consequently, a economic soil cement brick may be made in future.

To make railway carbody light in weight has advantages at some aspects of both manufacturing and maintenance. Recently, railway carbodys of steel structure have been lightened their weight by using aluminum extrusion plate. for the additional lightening of railway carbody, an optimal design which maintains proper strength and minimizes weight must be achieved. Optimization which is used with finite element analysis for aluminum extrusion plate has the disadvantage of consuming much time. In this paper, the method of equivalent material property which is available to FEA code is established using the method of equivalent stiffness. This method for plate is expanded into the method for railway carbody structure with plates and shells. An objective function is established for maximum stiffness of unit aluminum extrusion plate using established method of equivalent material property. We performed an multi-objective optimization using the penalty function method. As a result, recommendable shapes and sizes of unit extrusion plate for under-frame of high speed train is presented.

To estimate the structural seismic demand, some methods are based on an equivalent linear system such as the Capacity Spectrum Method, the N2 method and the Equivalent Linearization method. Another category, widely investigated, is based on displacement correction such as the Displacement Coefficient Method and the Coefficient Method. Its basic concept consists in converting the elastic linear displacement of an equivalent Single Degree of Freedom system (SDOF) into a corresponding inelastic displacement. It relies on adequate modifying or reduction coefficient such as the inelastic deformation ratio which is usually developed for systems with known ductility factors ($C_{\mu}$) and ($C_R$) for known yield-strength reduction factor. The present paper proposes a rational approach which estimates this inelastic deformation ratio for SDOF bilinear systems by rigorous nonlinear analysis. It proposes a new inelastic deformation ratio which unifies and combines both $C_{\mu}$ and $C_R$ effects. It is defined by the ratio between the inelastic and elastic maximum lateral displacement demands. Three options are investigated in order to express the inelastic response spectra in terms of: ductility demand, yield strength reduction factor, and inelastic deformation ratio which depends on the period, the post-to-preyield stiffness ratio, the yield strength and the peak ground acceleration. This new inelastic deformation ratio ($C_{\eta}$) is describes the response spectra and is related to the capacity curve (pushover curve): normalized yield strength coefficient (${\eta}$), post-to-preyield stiffness ratio (${\alpha}$), natural period (T), peak ductility factor (${\mu}$), and the yield strength reduction factor ($R_y$). For illustrative purposes, instantaneous ductility demand and yield strength reduction factor for a SDOF system subject to various recorded motions (El-Centro 1940 (N/S), Boumerdes: Algeria 2003). The method accuracy is investigated and compared to classical formulations, for various hysteretic models and values of the normalized yield strength coefficient (${\eta}$), post-to-preyield stiffness ratio (${\alpha}$), and natural period (T). Though the ductility demand and yield strength reduction factor differ greatly for some given T and ${\eta}$ ranges, they remain take close when ${\eta}>1$, whereas they are equal to 1 for periods $T{\geq}1s$.

The equivalent source method(ESM) is used for the calculation of the internal pressure field for an enclosure which can have arbitrary boundary conditions and nay include internal objects which scatter the sound field. The advantage of using ESM is that it requires relatively low computing cost and is easy to model the internal diffracting objects. Typical ESM modeling uses two groups of equivalent source positions. One group includes the first order images of the source inside the enclosure. The Positions of the other group are usually on a spherical surface some distance outside the enclosure. The normal velocity on the surfaces of the enclosure walls is evaluated at a larger number of positions than there are equivalent sources. The sum of the squared difference between this velocity and the expected is minimized by adjusting the strength of the equivalent sources. This study is on the optimal far field sources positions when using the equivalent source method. In general, the far field sources are evenly distributed on a surface of a virtual sphere which is centered at the enclosure with a sufficiently large radius. In this study. optimal far field source locations are searched using simulated annealing method for various radii of spheres where far field sources are located. Simulation results showed that optimally located sources with adequate distance away from the enclosure center gave better result than sources with even distribution even with a smaller number of far field sources.
