This study investigated particle expansion in basic oxygen furnace slag (BOF) and desulfurization slag (DSS) after heat curing by using the volume method. Concrete hydration was accelerated by heat curing. The compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and resistivity of the concrete were analyzed. Maximum expansion occurred in the BOF and DSS samples containing 0.30-0.60 mm and 0.60-1.18 mm particles, respectively. Deterioration was more severe in the BOF samples. In the slag aggregates for the complete replacement of fine aggregate, severe fractures occurred in both the BOF and DSS samples. Scanning electron microscopy revealed excess CH after curing, which caused peripheral hydration products to become extruded, resulting in fracture.

The expansion of two different kinds of hydrodynamic size of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA Mw: 1.56- 2.04 ${\times}$ 106 g/mol) has been measured by dynamic light scattering and viscometry above the Flory $\theta$ temperature of the variou s solvents such as n-butyl chloride, 3-heptanone, and 4-heptanone. The expansion of PMMA chains was analyzed in terms of universal temperature parameters and also compared with previous results of polystyrene (PS) system. First it was found that simple $\tau/{\tau}c$ parameter no longer had its universality for the expansion behavior of hydrodynamic size in the chemically different linear polymer chains. However after modifying ${\tau}/{\tau}c$ parameter into $(Mw/Ro2)3}2(\tau/\tauc)$, we observed a much better universality for both PMMA and PS systems. Here Mw, Ro, $\tau[=(T-{\theta}$)/${\theta}$]$, and ${\tau}c[=({\theta}-Tc)/Tc]$ are defined as the weight average molecular weight, the unperturbed end-to-end distance, the reduced temperature and the reduced critical temperature, respectively.

The continuous welded rail(CWR) track without the rail expansion joint has many advantages over the conventional track in a variety of fields including the speed-up and the ride comport. However, due to the excessive axial force in the CWR and the track-bridge interactive behavior, inevitably, the rail expansion joint must be installed at the vulnerable zone such as the bridge end zone, etc. In this rail expansion joint zone, the frequency of the maintenance work to repair the track irregularity is on the rise. This is because that the creep of the sleeper is occurred in the moveable zone of the rail expansion joint. In this study, among the several options for reducing the track irregularity on the rail expansion joint zone, the application and efficiency of the tied sleeper is investigated. Field test construction has been conducted, then the progress of the track irregularity and the frequency of the maintenance work are analyzed before and after the filed test construction.

홀 확장법은 홀 주위에 압축 잔류응력층을 생성시킴으로서 균열 발생을 지연시키는 방법으로 항공산업 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 홀 확장 잔류응력의 분포는 홀 확장률, 맨드럴 삽입방향, 재료 물성치 등 여러 가지 홀 확장 피라미터에 따라 달라진다. 홀 확장 잔류응력층의 정확한 파악은 항공산업의 실제 설계에 있어서 매우 중요함에도 불구하고 이에 대한 연구는 상대적으로 부족하였다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소해석을 통하여 두 개의 인전한 홀에 홀 확장법을 적용하는 경우 대한 잔류응력 분포를 구하였다. 연구 결과 두개 홀에 동시에 홀 확장을 하는 경우가 순차적으로 홀 확장으로 하는 경우보다 더 유리한 잔류응력 분포를 얻을 수 있었다.

Stouts are frequently used throughout the human body, but the most critical areas are in coronary arteries. They open pathways in vessels and supply blood directly to the heart muscle. To simulate behavior of expansion for the coronary stent by balloon, the commercial finite element code LS-DYNA and ANSYS were used in the analysis. The explicit method is used to analyze the expansion of the stent and the implicit method is performed to simulate the springback that developed in a stent after the balloon pressure has been removed. Finally the experimental results for the expansion of the PS153 stents were compared with the FEM results. The springback was measured with the stents subjected to no external pressure to which stents are subjected in vivo. The simulated results were in good agreement with experimental results. Standard mechanical characteristics such as stress, plastic strains, and springback can be derived from the numerical results. These data can be used to determine maximum expansion diameter without fracture and expansion pressure considering elastic recoil.

본 연구는 교량 신축이음에 대해서 윤하중 재하실험을 통해 윤하중 재하 특성을 분석하고 이를 토대로 신축이음에서의 윤하중 재하기준을 마련하는 기초데이터를 확보하고자 실시하였다. 이를 위해 국내에서 많이 사용되고 있는 레일신축이음과 핑거신축이음에 대하여 시험체를 제작하고 실제 타이어 바퀴를 사용한 정적 윤하중 재하실험을 실시하였다. 윤하중에 접촉된 레일과 핑거에서 윤하중 분배율을 파악하였는데, 레일신축이음에서 중앙 레일이 지지하는 분담율은 윤하중 크기가 증가함에 따라 감소하는 것으로 나타났고 핑거신축이음에서는 접촉 면적 증가에 따라 거의 증가하지 않고 일정하게 됨을 알 수 있었다. 윤하중 재하 특성이 기존 설계기준과 많은 차이를 나타내고 있으므로 신축이음 설계를 위한 윤하중 접지압력 분포에 대한 합리적인 기준 마련이 필요하다고 판단되었다.

The effects of elastic modulus coefficient and linear expansion coefficient of overhead distribution power line(ACSR $58 mm^2$) on sag behavior in distribution line have been investigated to clarify the difference between specification and experimental level. The elastic modulus coefficients of Al wire and steel wire were $5,182.6 kgf/mm^2,\;18,348.8 kgf/mm^2$, respectively Therefore, the computational composition elastic modulus coefficient of the power line was $7,063.5 kgf/mm^2$, while that of experimentally measured was $7681.1 kgf/mm^2$. As a result, we found that elastic modulus coefficient which was experimentally measured was higher than that of computational by 8.7 %. However, when planner designs the sag of disoibution line, the elastic modulus coefficient of power line $8,400 kgf/mm^2$ should be generally adopted. These two different using values lead to the sag difference of 0.62 m. The other results will be discussed.

In the current flow visualization studies, the role of non-Newtonian characteristics (such as shearra to dependent viscosity and viscoelasticity ) on flow behavior across the sudden ex- pansion step in a circular pipe as a model for blood flow experiments is investigated over a wide range of Reynolds numbers. The expansion ratios tested are 2.000 and 2.667 and the range of the Reynolds number covered in the current flow visualization tests are 10~35, 000 based on the inlet. diameter. The reattachment longuEs for the viscoelastic fluids in the lami- nar flow regime are found to be much shorter than those for the Newtonian fluid. In addition it decreases significantly with increasing concentration of viscoelastic fluids at the same Reynolds number. However, in the turbulent flow regime, the reattachment length for the viscoelastic fluids Is two or three times longer than those for water, and gradually increases with increasing concentration of viscoelastic solutions, resulting In 25 and 28 step-height dis- tances for 500 and 1, 000 lpm ployacrylamide solutions, respectively. This may be due to the fact that the elasticity in pobacrylamide solutions suppresses the eddy motion and controls separation and reattachment behavior in the sudden expansion pips flow.

The vibration of fuel rods in axial flow is a universally recognized issue within both engineering and academic communities due to its significant importance in ensuring structural safety. This paper aims to thoroughly investigate the stability and nonlinear vibration of a fuel rod subjected to axial flow in a newly designed high temperature gas cooled reactor. Considering the possible presence of thermal expansion and large deformation in practical scenarios, the thermal effect and geometric nonlinearity are modeled using the von Karman equation. By applying Hamilton's principle, we derive the comprehensive governing equation for this fluid-structure interaction system, which incorporates the quadratic nonlinear stiffness. To establish a connection between the fluid and structure aspects, we utilize the Galerkin method to solve the perturbation potential function, while employing mode expansion techniques associated with the structural analysis. Following convergence and validation analyses, we examine the stability of the structure under various conditions in detail, and also investigate the bifurcation behavior concerning the buckling amplitude and flow velocity. The findings from this research enhance the understanding of the underlying physics governing fuel rod behavior in axial flow under severe yet practical conditions, while providing valuable guidance for reactor design.

One solution to prevent deterioration due to expansion joint and to extend lifetime of short span bridges, is jointless integral abutment bridge. To understand behavior of pile foundation of skewed plate girder bridge with integral abutment, finite element analysis was performed for the model of different skew angle from 90。 to 50。. Comparison of stresses at pile and abutment was made for each case. It is found that effect of temperature change is major factor to influence the behavior of skewed integral abutment bridge.
