Accurate design models for predicting the shear resistance of headed studs in solid concrete slabs are essential for obtaining economical and safe steel-concrete composite structures. In this study, symbolic regression with genetic programming (GPSR) was applied to experimental data to formulate new descriptive equations for predicting the shear resistance of studs in solid slabs using both normal and lightweight concrete. The obtained GPSR-based nominal resistance equations demonstrated good agreement with the test results. The equations indicate that the stud shear resistance is insensitive to the secant modulus of elasticity of concrete, which has been included in many international standards following the pioneering work of Ollgaard et al. In contrast, it increases when the stud height-to-diameter ratio increases, which is not reflected by the design models in the current international standards. The nominal resistance equations were subsequently refined for use in design from reliability analyses to ensure that the target reliability index required by the Eurocodes was achieved. Resistance factors for the developed equations were also determined following US design practice. The stud shear resistance predicted by the proposed models was compared with the predictions from 13 existing models. The accuracy of the developed models exceeds the accuracy of the existing equations. The proposed models produce predictions that can be used with confidence in design, while providing significantly higher stud resistances for certain combinations of variables than those computed with the existing equations given by many standards.

도심지내 굴착공사는 기존 지하구조물의 근접시공의 시계가 증가하는 추세이다. 근접시공에 따른 터널의 안정성은 가이드라인이 제시되어 있으나, 굴착공사에서 유발되는 발파신동이 터널구조물에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 미미한 실정이다. 본 연구는 국내외의 터널 안전영역 기준과 발파진동의 허용기준을 검토하고 진동가이드라인을 추정하기 위하여 수치해석적인 방법을 사용하여 수행하였다. 해석에 사용된 발파하중은 이론식인 International Society of Explosive Engineers(2000) 제안식을 이용하여 폭굉압력(detonation pressure)을 산정하였고 해석 모델은 서울지하철을 대상으로 하였다. 실제발파현장에 인접한 지하철 구간의 진동계측치를 수치해석결과와 비교하여 수치해석의 적정성을 검토하였다. 동적수치해석 결과 라이닝의 절점에 작용하는 진동속도의 영향원으로부터 허용값을 만족하는 영역을 제시하였다.

Large scale earthquake was occurred in different parts of the world like Japan (in 1995), Republic of Pakistan (2005), in China (2008) etc and enormous structures were damaged. As a result of collapse of school buildings structures numerous students are died and it had a big impact on the international community. Therefore, the interest of preparing the seismic resistant school building structures in our country is increases as school building are used as emergency shelter for local residents. But the current standard of seismic design ratio of 3.7% is applied for school building in Korea which is only significant earthquake damage is expected. In order to overcome the current situation, seismic performance evaluation is carried out for the existing school building and an accurate and appropriate seismic retrofit is required based on performance evaluation to upgrade the existing school buildings. In this paper, nonlinear analysis on existing school buildings for ATC-40(Applied Technology Council, ATC) and FEMA-356(Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA) are carried out using the capacity spectrum method to evaluate seismic performance and to determine the need for retrofitting. In addition, after reinforcement to enhance the seismic performance is applied the seismic performance evaluation is carried out to verify the effectiveness of seismic retrofit.

In this paper the voltage controlled GIC is classified into two structures, one has the dependent port conductance and the other has the independent port conductance. Nine kinds of configuration for the WDF with two voltage controlled GICs have been found and the design method for WD-LPF has been shown as an example. Their hardware complexity and amplitude characteristics are nearly same as the existing ones, but amplitude error according to coefficient quantization is reduced to about 5% of the error in existing structures. As the result of the numerical analysis of the RPSD to check up the product quantization effect at the WDF output, four kinds of proposed structures have about 10dB less RPSD than existed ones for 6 bits .leq.B .leq.20 bits.

In this paper, we propose an efficient index mechanism for real-time main memory database systems. Existing main memory index structures based on the tree can effectively support range searches. However, it doesn't guarantee the real-time characteristic because difference between the access time of a node and an average access time can be high. The index structures based on the hash have always a regular random access time on the simple searches and that speed is very fast. However they do not support range searches. To solve such problems, we propose a new index mechanism called Hyper Tree-Hash (Hyper-TH) that combines ECBH (Extendible Chained Bucket Hashing) and T＊-tree. ECBH can be dynamically extended and has a very fast access time. T＊-tree effectively supports the range searches. We show through our experiments that the proposed mechanism outperforms existing other index structures.

In this paper we present the results of an analytical investigation on the existing concrete structures which are reinforced with carbon fiber grid. The carbon fiber grid and polymer mortar are utilized in the reinforcement of concrete column, beam, and tunnel lining. The physical and mechanical properties of the carbon fiber grid and polymer mortar were obtained experimentally and then used in the analytical investigation. In the analysis concrete structures are modeled with 3-D solid finite elements and the carbon fiber grid is modeled with space frame elements. Through the investigation reinforcing effect of carbon fiber grid on the existing concrete structures is confirmed.

This study intends to examine the characteristics of compressive behavior and conducts comparative analysis between normal compressive strength under existing equations (LRFD, ACI 318, EC 4) and experimental the maximum compressive strength from the compression experiment for the unstiffened steel plate-concrete structures. The six specimens were made to evaluate the constraining factor (${\xi}$) and width ratio (${\beta}$) effects subjected to the compressive monotonic loading. Based on this experiments, the following conclusions could be made: first, compressive behaviors of the specimens from the finite element analysis closely agreed with the ones from the actual experiments; second, the higher the width ratio (${\beta}$) was, the lower the ductility index (DI) was; and third, the test results showed the maximum compressive strength with a margin by 7% compared to the existing codes.

This paper presents a careful theoretical investigation into interfacial stresses in reinforced concrete foundation beam repairing with composite plate. The essential issue in the analysis of reinforced structures with composite materials is to understand the individual behaviour of each material and its interaction with the remaining ones. The present model is based on equilibrium and deformations compatibility requirements in and all parts of the repaired RC foundation beam, i.e., the reinforced concrete foundation beam, the composite plate and the adhesive layer. The theoretical predictions are compared with other existing solutions, By comparisons between the existing solutions and the present new solution enable a clear appreciation of the effects of various parameters such as the geometric characteristics and mechanical properties of the components of the repaired beam, as well as the geotechnical stresses of the soil are considered. This research is helpful for the understanding on mechanical behaviour of the interface and design of the composite-concrete hybrid structures.

Safety-related structures of power plants have to be protected against the effects of possible hazards and natural phenomena. Earthquakes are considered a major dynamic design loading as a requirement of plant design, but the effects of blast-induced vibratons are not. Due to the difficulties of obtaining construction site for new plants, following ones are inevitably being built in the site adjacent to existing power plants. Therefore considerable thought has been recently given to the dynamic loading generated by blasting works near the plants. In this paper, discussed is applicability of existing vibration standards and industrial codes to the blasting works near safety related structures. Also evaluated are the parameters for the safe vibration limits such as measure of vibration level, frequency consideration, structure response, propagation equation, etc.
