본 논문의 목적은 불연속면의 공학적 특성, 사면형상과 하중조건 등을 고려한 암반사면 전도 파괴에 대한 안정해석방법을 개발하고 적용하는테 있다. 암반사면의 전도파괴에 대한 안정은 경사각 $\alpha_s$ 와 H/t비에 주된 영향을 받는다. 설계적용을 위하여 매개변수에 따른 My띠와 $\alpha$서 함수로 표현되는 암반사면 전도파괴에 대한 안정도표를 작성하였다. 안정도표에서 $\alpha_s$와 Hy띠가 작아질수록 안정성이 증가하는 경향을 보인다. 안정도표에서 안정영역은 간극수압변화에 따라 가장 크게 감소한다. 파괴영역의 변화는 지진력과 단계각에 가장 민감하다.

The $40\%$ of wall thickness criterion which has been used as a plugging rule is applicable only to a single cracked steam generator tubes. In the previous studies performed by authors, several failure prediction models were introduced to estimate the plastic collapse pressures of steam generator tubes containing collinear or parallel two adjacent axial through-wall cracks. The objective of this study is to examine the failure prediction models and propose optimum ones for non-aligned two axial through-wall cracks in steam generator tubes. In order to determine the optimum ones, a series of plastic collapse tests and finite element analyses were carried out for steam generator tubes with two machined non-aligned axial through-wall cracks. Thereby, either the plastic zone contact model or COD based model was selected as the optimum one according to axial distance between two clacks. Finally, the optimum failure prediction model was used to demonstrate the conservatism of flaw characterization rules for various multiple flaws according to ASME code.

The 40% of wall criterion, which is generally used for the plugging of steam generator tubes, may be applied only to a single crack. In the previous study, a total of 9 failure models were introduced to estimate the local failure of the ligament between cracks and the optimum coalescence model of multiple collinear cracks was determined among these models. It is, however, known that parallel axial cracks are more frequently detected during an in-service inspection than collinear axial cracks. The objective of this study is to determine the plastic collapse model which can be applied to the steam generator tube containing two parallel axial through-wall cracks. Nine previously proposed local failure models were selected as the candidates. Subsequently interaction effects between two adjacent cracks were evaluated to screen them. Plastic collapse tests for the plate with two parallel through-wall cracks and finite element analyses were performed for the determination of the optimum plastic collapse model. By comparing the test results with the prediction results obtained from the candidate models, a plastic zone contact model was selected as an optimum model.

Cooling by the flow of water through an embedded cooling pipe has become a common and effective artificial thermal control measure for massive concrete structures. However, an extreme thermal gradient induces significant thermal stress, resulting in thermal cracking. Using a mesoscopic finite-element (FE) mesh, three-phase composites of concrete namely aggregate, mortar matrix and interfacial transition zone (ITZ) are modeled. An equivalent probabilistic model is presented for failure study of concrete by assuming that the material properties conform to the Weibull distribution law. Meanwhile, the correlation coefficient introduced by the statistical method is incorporated into the Weibull distribution formula. Subsequently, a series of numerical analyses are used for investigating the influence of the correlation coefficient on tensile strength and the failure process of concrete based on the equivalent probabilistic model. Finally, as an engineering application, damage and failure behavior of concrete cracks induced by a water-cooling pipe are analyzed in-depth by the presented model. Results show that the random distribution of concrete mechanical parameters and the temperature gradient near water-cooling pipe have a significant influence on the pattern and failure progress of temperature-induced micro-cracking in concrete.

The fire event occurred in fire proof zone often causes serious electrical problems such as shorts, ground faults, or open circuits in nuclear power plants. These would be directed to the loss of safe shutdown capabilities performed by safety related systems and equipments The fire event can treat the basic design principle that safety systems should keep their functions with redundancy and independency. In case of a cable fire, operators can not perform their mission properly and can misjudge the situation because of spurious operation, wrong indication or instrument. These would deteriorate the plant capabilities of safety shutdown and make disastrous conditions. In this paper, the cables of the representative nuclear power plant in korea is selected and the cable functional failure temperature by exposed fire using Cable Response to Live Fire(CAROLFIRE) is studied. It is expected that the results are very useful to know the cable failure temperature by exposed fire. We confirmed the safety and integrity of the cable by exposed fire and those results will use the based data of cable exposed fire characteristics.

In case heavy rainfall is a key factor of slope failure, the failure zone is usually developed within the depth of 3~5m from the ground surface regardless of the location of the watertable. If rainfall is taken into consideration, it is general that the slope stability analysis is carried out under the assumption that the cut slope is saturated to the slope surface or the watertable elevates to a certain height so that ${\gamma}_{sat}$, the unit weight of saturated soil, is used. However, the analysis method mentioned above can't exactly simulate the variation of pore water pressure in the slope and yields different failure shape. The applicability of slope stability analysis method considering the distribution of pore water pressure within the slope with heavy rainfalls, was checked out after the stability analysis of a lage-scale cut slope in a highway construction site, where surface failure occurred with heavy rainfalls. An appropriate slope stabilization method is proposed on the base of the outcome of the analysis.

Connections play a significant role in strength of structures against earthquake-induced loads. According to the post-seismic reports, connection failure is a cause of overall failure in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Connection failure results in a sudden increase in inter-story drift, followed by early and progressive failure across the entire structure. This article investigated the cyclic performance and behavioral improvement of shape-memory alloy-based connections (SMA-based connections). The novelty of the present work is focused on the effect of shape memory alloy bars is damage reduction, strain recoverability, and cracking distribution of the stated material in RC moment frames under seismic loads using 3D nonlinear static analyses. The present numerical study was verified using two experimental connections. Then, the performance of connections was studied using 14 models with different reinforcement details on a scale of 3:4. The response parameters under study included moment-rotation, secant stiffness, energy dissipation, strain of bar, and moment-curvature of the connection. The connections were simulated using LS-DYNA environment. The models with longitudinal SMA-based bars, as the main bars, could eliminate residual plastic rotations and thus reduce the demand for post-earthquake structural repairs. The flag-shaped stress-strain curve of SMA-based materials resulted in a very slight residual drift in such connections.

The present paper deals with the seismic response analysis and the evaluation of most likely failure modes for a water storage structure. For the stress analysis, a 3-D mathematical model has been adopted to represent the structure appropriately. The structure has been analyzed for both static and seismic loads. Seismic analysis has been carried out considering the hydrodynamic effects of the contained water. Based on the stress analyses results, the most likely failure modes viz. tensile cracking and compressive crushing of concrete for the various structural elements; caused by the seismic event have been investigated. Further an attempt has also been made to quantify the initial leakage rate and average emptying time for the structure during seismic event after evaluating the various crack parameters viz. crack-width and crack-spacing at the locations of interest. The results are presented with reference to peak ground acceleration (PGA) of the seismic event. It has been observed that, an increase in PGA would result in significant increase in stresses and crack width in the various structural members. Significant increase in initial leakage rate and decrease in average emptying time for the structure has also been observed with the increase in PGA.

본 연구는 금속의 소성 가공 시 변형을 해석하기 위한 금속소성학의 개념, 지반공학 관점인 Terzaghi's 토압론과 이를 수정한 수정 Terzaghi's 토압론, Mohr-Coulomb 항복조건을 이용한 미끄러짐선장이론의 세가지 방법을 이용하여 각 방법에 따른 터널의 소성영역 및 내부 토압을 산정하였다. 세가지 방법 모두 등방성 재료의 평면변형율조건 해석의 이차원 수학적 해석 모델이다. 금속소성학의 이론을 사용할 경우, 터널에 내부압력이 작용하는 것으로 가정하여 지반의 소성영역 및 지반 내부토압을 구한 결과이므로, 중력만 작용하는 실제 터널 현장과는 맞지 않는 다른 결과가 도출되었다. 미끄러짐선장 이론을 통해 소성영역 형성범위 및 토압을 분석한 결과, 대수나선형태로 파괴면이 형성되는 것으로 나타났고 이는 선행연구와 비교를 통해 실제와 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 터널 굴착 등으로 인해 발생하는 지반의 체적 변화를 고려한 토압 산정식을 수학적으로 검토하고 이를 Terzaghi's 토압과 비교하였다. 지반의 체적 팽창으로 인해 발생하는 다일러턴시 효과로 인한 강도 증진을 고려하였으며, Terzaghi's 토압의 문제점을 분석하고 토피고와 내부마찰각을 변수로 이론적 방법을 통한 토압을 각각 비교·검토하였다. Terzaghi's 토압론과 이를 수정한 수정 Terzaghi's 토압론의 경우, 소성영역 범위를 임의로 가정하였으므로, 두 이론 모두 터널의 소성영역을 해석할 수 없다. 이론적 방법을 통한 토압 산정 결과, Terzaghi's 토압의 경우 팽창성을 고려한 토압에 비해 토압이 과도하게 크게 산정되었으며 이는 지반의 체적변화로 인한 다일러턴시 효과를 무시하고, 이완영역을 과도하게 가정하였기 때문이다.

L 석회석 광산에서 폐석 덤핑 투하 지점이 놓인 위치에 따라 폐석층 또는 암반층에 따라 구분하고 총11개의 폐석 적치장중 7개소를 대상으로 사면안정해석을 수행하였다. 폐석층에 대해서는 Bishop 법을 이용한 원호파괴 해석과 유한요소법을 적용하였으며, 암반층은 평사투영법에 의해 잠재적인 파괴 가능성을 분석하고 한계평형법 해석에 의해 안전율을 산정하였다. 또한 암반사면의 전체적인 거동을 파악하기 위해 유한요소법을 적용하였다. 이 때 유한요소법으로 사면의 안정성을 안전율로 표시하기 위하여 강도감소법을 이용하였다. 안정 해석결과 폐석층 사면은 D 지역에서, 그리고 암반층의 경우 F와 G 지역에서 사면의 안정성 확보가 곤란한 것으로 평가되었으며, 아울러 폐석 적치장의 해석결과를 토대로 안정성을 확보하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 즉, D 지역의 사면은 파괴 활동면을 벗어난 지역에서 덤핑 후 도져에 의해 Push하는 방안이 필요하며, F와 G지역은 단층대 발달이 없는 지역으로 덤핑-투하 지점을 이동하여 적치하는 방안을 추천하였다.
