Shear wall is commonly used as a lateral force resisting system of concrete mid-rise and high-rise buildings, but it brings challenges in providing relatively large space throughout the building height. For this reason, the structure system where the upper structure with bearing, non-bearing and/or shear walls that sits on top of a transfer plate system supported by widely spaced columns at the lower stories is preferred in some regions, particularly in low to moderate seismic regions in Asia. A thick reinforced concrete (RC) plate has often been used as a transfer system, along with RC transfer girders; however, the RC plate becomes very thick for tall buildings. Applying the post-tensioning (PT) technique to RC plates can effectively reduce the thickness and reinforcement as an economical design method. Currently, a simplified model is used for numerical modeling of PT transfer plate, which does not consider the interaction of the plate and the upper structure. To observe the actual behavior of PT transfer plate under seismic loads, it is necessary to model whole parts of the structure and tendons to precisely include the interaction and the secondary effect of PT tendons in the results. This research evaluated the seismic behavior of shear wall-type residential buildings with PT transfer plates for the condition that PT tendons are included or excluded in the modeling. Three-dimensional finite element models were developed, which includes prestressing tendon elements, and response spectrum analyses were carried out to evaluate seismic forces. Two buildings with flat-shape and L-shape plans were considered, and design forces of shear walls and transfer columns for a system with and without PT tendons were compared. The results showed that, in some cases, excluding PT tendons from the model leads to an unrealistic estimation of the demands for shear walls sit on transfer plate and transfer columns due to excluding the secondary effect of PT tendons. Based on the results, generally, the secondary effect reduces shear force demand and axial-flexural demands of transfer columns but increases the shear force demand of shear walls. The results of this study suggested that, in addition to the effect of PT on the resistance of transfer plate, it is necessary to include PT tendons in the modeling to consider its effect on force demand.
The slope of an open cut tunnel is located above the exit of the Leijia tunnel on the Changgan high-speed railway. During the excavation of the open cut tunnel foundation pit, the slope slipped twice, a large landslide of 92500 m3 formed. The landslide body and unstable slope body not only caused the foundation pit of the open cut tunnel to be buried and the anchor piles to be damaged but also directly threatened the operational safety of the later high-speed railway. Therefore, to study the stability change in the slope of the open cut tunnel under heavy rain and excavation conditions, a 3D numerical calculation model of the slope is carried out by Midas GTS software, the deformation mechanism is analyzed, anti-sliding measures are proposed, and the effectiveness of the anti-sliding measures is analyzed according to the field monitoring results. The results show that when rainfall occurs, rainwater collects in the open cut tunnel area, resulting in a transient saturation zone on the slope on the right side of the open cut tunnel, which reduces the shear strength of the slope soil; the excavation at the slope toe reduces the anti-sliding capacity of the slope toe. Under the combined action of excavation and rainfall, when the soil above the top of the anchor pile is excavated, two potential sliding surfaces are bounded by the top of the excavation area, and the shear outlet is located at the top of the anchor pile. After the excavation of the open cut tunnel, the potential sliding surface is mainly concentrated at the lower part of the downhill area, and the shear outlet moves down to the bottom of the open cut tunnel. Based on the deformation characteristics and the failure mechanism of the landslides, comprehensive control measures, including interim emergency mitigation measures and long-term mitigation measures, are proposed. The field monitoring results further verify the accuracy of the anti-sliding mechanism analysis and the effectiveness of anti-sliding measures.
SPT-업홀 기법은 표준관입시험시 발생하는 지중의 타격 에너지를 가진원으로 이용하고 지표면에 설치된 감지기로 신호를 획득, 지반의 전단파 속도 주상도를 도출하는 기법이다. 기존의 SPT-업홀 기법은 수직 성분의 지표면 속도계만을 이용하였으므로 SPT(Standard Penetration Test) 가진의 특성상 발생하는 압축파 성분 등의 간섭 및 가진 방향과 감진 방향의 불일치 문제 등으로 인하여 전단파 성분의 도달시간 정보를 정확히 획득하는데 어려움이 있었다. 그리하여 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 개선하고자 SPT 가진에 의한 지표면에서의 입자 운동을 수치해석을 통하여 고찰하였으며 신뢰성 있는 도달시간 정보 획득을 위한 비교 연구를 수행하였다. 비교 연구 결과 SPT-업홀 기법에서 도달시간 정보 획득 방법은 수직 성분과 방사 방향의 수평 성분인 2방향 성분을 동시에 활용하여 전단파 성분의 도달을 명확히 하고 그 전단파 성분의 첫 극대점을 이용하는 방안이 가장 합리적인 것으로 판단되었다. 최종적으로 실제 현장에서 2방향 지표면 속도계를 이용하여 개선된 SPT-업홀 기법을 수행하였으며 2방향 감지기 사용의 타당성에 대해 검증하였다.

The research work is concerned with the analytical and experimental studies on the heat transfer phenomenon around the underground concrete digester used for biogas production Systems. A mathematical and computational method was developed to estimate heat losses from underground cylindrical concrete digester used for biogas production systems. To test its feasibility and to evaluate thermal parameters of materials related, the method was applied to six physical model digesters. The cylindrical concrete digester was taken as a physical model, to which the model,atical model of heat balance can be applied. The mathematical model was transformed by means of finite element method and used to analyze temperature distribution with respect to several boundary conditions and design parameters. The design parameters of experimental digesters were selected as; three different sizes 40cm by 80cm, 80cm by 160cm and l00cm by 200cm in diameter and height; two different levels of insulation materials-plain concrete and vermiculite mixing in concrete; and two different types of installation-underground and half-exposed. In order to carry out a particular aim of this study, the liquid within the digester was substituted by water, and its temperature was controlled in five levels-35。 C, 30。 C, 25。 C, 20。C and 15。C; and the ambient air temperature and ground temperature were checked out of the system under natural winter climate conditions. The following results were drawn from the study. 1.The analytical method, by which the estimated values of temperature distribution around a cylindrical digester were obtained, was able to be generally accepted from the comparison of the estimated values with the measured. However, the difference between the estimated and measured temperature had a trend to be considerably increased when the ambient temperature was relatively low. This was mainly related variations of input parameters including the thermal conductivity of soil, applied to the numerical analysis. Consequently, the improvement of these input data for the simulated operation of the numerical analysis is expected as an approach to obtain better refined estimation. 2.The difference between estimated and measured heat losses was shown to have the similar trend to that of temperature distribution discussed above. 3.It was found that a map of isothermal lines drawn from the estimated temperature distribution was very useful for a general observation of the direction and rate of heat transfer within the boundary. From this analysis, it was interpreted that most of heat losses is passed through the triangular section bounded within 45 degrees toward the wall at the bottom edge of the digesten Therefore, any effective insulation should be considered within this region. 4.It was verified by experiment that heat loss per unit volume of liquid was reduced as the size of the digester became larger For instance, at the liquid temperature of 35˚ C, the heat loss per unit volume from the 0. 1m
최근 구조물 기초가 풍화암상에 위치하는 경우가 증가하는 추세로 풍화암상 기초의 적정 설계 지지력을 평가하고자 국내 지반조사서상 제안된 풍화암 기초 허용 지지력을 조사하였다. 조사 결과 몇몇 현장에 제안된 풍화암 허용 지지력은 약 400~700kN/m2 수준으로 그 편차가 큰 편이며 보수적인 값으로 판단되었다. 지반의 기초 허용 지지력은 설계 초기 기초 형식 결정에 중요한 지표로, 그 결정에 따라 공사비 및 공기에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 적정한 풍화암 지반의 허용지지력을 평가하고자 풍화암 지반에 대하여 총 6회의 대형 평판재하시험을 실시하고 지지력 및 침하 특성을 분석하였다. 시험 결과 지지력은 모두 1,500kN/m2이상으로 평가되었으며 기존 지지력 공식과 비교하였을 때 공내재하시험에 의한 지지력 평가식이 본 시험결과와 유사함을 확인하였다. 또한 대형 평판재하시험의 하중-침하 거동 역산에 의한 지반의 탄성계수는 공내재하시험의 탄성계수(E) 값 적용이 적절하다고 평가되었다. 본 연구에서의 대형 평판재하시험 결과 및 국내 타 현장에서의 평판재하시험 사례 등을 종합하여 볼 때 풍화암 허용 지지력은 1,000kN/m2 이상으로 평가된다. 그러나 기초 침하량은 기초 크기 증가에 따라 비례하므로 구조물 허용 침하량 기준에 따라 허용 지지력은 제한되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수치해석적 방법으로 기초 크기 및 풍화암 두께에 따른 기초 예상 침하량을 평가하였으며, 풍화암 지반상 기초 허용지지력이 1,000kN/m2 이상일 수 있는 기초 크기 및 지반 조건을 표로 제안하였다. 이는 기초 설계 초기 기초 형식 결정에 유용하다고 사료된다.
The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70
