In the current paper the results of a numerical simulation that were verified by a well instrumented experimental procedure for studying the arching effect over a trapdoor in sand is presented. To simulate this phenomenon with continuum mechanics, the experimental procedure is modeled in ABAQUS code using stress dependent hardening in elastic state and plastic strain dependent frictional hardening-softening with Mohr Coulomb failure criterion applying user sub-routine. The apparatus comprises rectangular trapdoors with different width that can yield downward while stresses and deformations are recorded simultaneously. As the trapdoor starts to yield, the whole soil mass deforms elastically. However, after an immediate specified displacement, depending on the width of the trapdoor, the soil mass behaves plastically. This behavior of sand occurs due to the flow phenomenon and continues until the stress on trapdoor is minimized. Then the failure process develops in sand and the measured stress on the trapdoor shows an ascending trend. This indicates gradual separation of the yielding mass from the whole soil body. Finally, the flow process leads to establish a stable vault of sand called arching mechanism or progressive collapse of the soil body.

탄-소성론에 근거한 콘크리트나 토질과 같은 재료의 파괴 포락선은 주응력을 축으로 하는 공간 좌표계상에서 인장의 등압(hydrostatic stress)축을 향해 기울어진 형태를 가지며 소성흐름이 상관소성흐름 법칙(associated flow rule)에 따라 결정될 경우 콘크리트의 거동 예측시에 과도한 체적 팽창률을 나타내게 된다. 본 논문에서는 콘크리트의 다축응력 하에서의 거동을 예측하기 위하여 비균일 경화(nonuniform hardening)를 적용한 5계수 파괴 포락선과 등압축 방향 성분의 소성 흐름을 수정하는 비상관 소성흐름 법칙(non-associated flow rule)을 사용하여 비선형 유한요소해석 프로그램을 개발하였으며 신뢰성 있는 연구자의 다축응력 실험결과와 유한요소해석 프로그램의 해석결과를 비교하였다.

The refinement of microstructure and phase transformation near the interface of pure copper/carbon steel dissimilar metals joints with various friction welding parameters have been studied in this paper. The microstructure of copper and carbon steel joints were changed to be a finer grain compared to those of the base metals due to the frictional heat and plastic deformation. The microstructure of copper side experienced wide range of deformed region from the weld interface and divided into very fine equaxied grains and elongated grains. Especially, the microstructures near the interface on carbon steel were transformed from ferrite and pearlite dual structure to fine ferrite, grain boundary pearlite and martensite due to the welding thermal cycle and rapid cooling rate after welding. These microstructures were varied with each friction welding parameters. The recrystallization on copper side is reason for softening in copper side and martensite transformation could explain the remarkable hardening region in carbon steel side.
