본 논문에서는 탄소섬유 복합재료의 균열의 위치 및 성장을 감지하기 위하여 브리지 회로 개념이 적용된 전기 전위법을 제안하였다. 중앙 관통 균열을 가진 복합재료 박판 시험편에 두 쌍의 전극을 생성하였으며, 브리지 회로 개념을 적용하여 한 쌍의 전극에 외부 전압을 인가하고 다른 한 쌍의 전극으로부터 출력 전압 변화를 관찰하였다. 실험과 유한요소해석을 통하여 전극의 크기와 간격, 균열의 위치와 크기 및 성장 방향의 영향을 고찰하였다. 검출 가능한 균열의 크기는 전극의 크기 보다는 전극의 간격에 의한 영향이 더 컸으며, 전극의 크기와 간격이 작을수록 균열의 검출 능력이 우수하였다. 또한, 균열 크기가 증가할 수록, 입력 전극과 가까울수록 출력 전압의 변화가 큼을 관찰할 수 있었다.

This study analyzed pore water pressure, seepage and leakage quantity, height of seepage and critical hydraulic gradient in order to suggest the seepage characteristics of agricultural reservoir embankment considering filter interval. The seepage characteristics of a deteriorated reservoir embankments were conducted according to the horizontal filter intervals range using three- dimensional finite element analysis. The wider the horizontal filter interval, the higher the pore water pressure increased, and the pore water pressure ratio in the center of the core has a greater effect than the base part. The seepage and leakage quantity appeared largely in the two-dimensional analysis conditions (case 1), where the filter was constructed totally in the longitudinal direction of the embankment, the wider the horizontal filter interval was gradually reduced. The reasonable filter intervals to yield efficient seepage characteristics were within 30 m for the pore water pressure of the core and the height of the seepage line. The stability of the filter installation was able to evaluate the stability of the piping by the critical hydraulic gradient method. The deteriorated reservoir with no filters or decreased functionality can significantly reduce the possibility of piping by simply installing a filter on the downstream slope. In the future, the deteriorated reservoir embankment should be checked for the reservoir remodeling because the core and filter functions have been lost or decreased significantly. In the case of a new installation, the seepage characteristic behavior due to the core and filter changes should be applied to the field after obtaining a reasonable horizontal filter interval that satisfies the safety factor by a three-dimensional analysis.

탄성파 자료의 역산은 파동방정식에 기초하고 있으므로 파동방정식의 해를 정확하게 구하는 것이 가장 중요하다. 특히, 전파형역산은 파동장 전체를 이용하기 때문에 정문제에 해당하는 모델링이 정확하게 이루어져야 신뢰할 수 있는 결과를 얻게 된다. 파동방정식의 수치해를 구하는 대표적인 기법인 유한차분법과 유한요소법은 해의 수렴성을 보장할 수 있어야 하는데, 해의 수렴성은 이론적으로 일반화된 증명이 되어 있으나 실제 문제에 적용할 경우 일관성과 안정성을 분석해야 한다. 모델링 결과의 일관성은 송신원 함수의 구현이 매우 중요한 부분인데, 유한차분법은 디랙 델타 함수(Dirac delta function)를 나타낼 때 격자 간격으로 표준화된 싱크 함수(sinc function)를 사용해야 하는 반면 유한요소법은 격자 간격에 관계없이 기저함수 값을 사용하면 된다. 주파수 영역 파동방정식을 사용할 경우 송신 파형 함수의 스펙트럼을 정확하게 표현하기 위해 샘플링 이론으로 정의되는 시간 간격보다 더 조밀한 샘플링 간격을 사용하고 나이퀴스트(Nyquist) 주파수보다 더 높은 주파수를 최대 주파수로 사용해야 한다. 또한, 복소 각주파수를 사용하는 경우 감쇠 파동방정식을 만족하기 위해서는 송신 파형 함수를 먼저 감쇠한 후 사용해야 한다. 이러한 요건들이 모두 만족되었을 때 신뢰할 수 있는 역산 알고리즘 개발이 가능하다.

When welding a car frame with one spot welding there are same limitations because many parts of it cannot be simplified by one spot welding alone. It is presented two spot welding model for the description of the spot welding which is usually used in a car frame structure. This study primarily covers fatigue behavior taking spot welded SPCC(Steel plate carbon C) with different ungget intervals as a tension shear specimen. It was prepared that intervals between two nuggets are varied as 9mm, 14mm, and 20mm respectively. The tensile tests and fatigue tests were executed to know the mechanical properties under static and fatigue load condition. In addition, the relationship between fatigue life and nugget intervals was illustrated by finite element method.

The analysis of simply supported single-cell skew-curved reinforced concrete (RC) box-girder bridges is carried out using a finite element based CsiBridge software. The behaviour of skew-curved box-girder bridges can not be anticipated simply by superimposing the individual effects of skewness and curvature, so it becomes important to examine the behaviour of such bridges considering the combined effects of skewness and curvature. A comprehensive parametric study is performed wherein the combined influence of the skew and curve angles is considered to determine the maximum bending moment, maximum shear force, maximum torsional moment and maximum vertical deflection of the bridge girders. The skew angle is varied from 0° to 60° at an interval of 10°, and the curve angle is varied from 0° to 60° at an interval of 12°. The scantly available literature on such bridges focuses mainly on the analysis of skew-curved bridges under dead and point loads. But, the effects of actual loadings may be different, thus, it is considered in the present study. It is found that the performance of these bridges having more curvature can be improved by introducing the skewness. Finally, several equations are deduced in the non-dimensional form for estimating the forces and deflection in the girders of simply supported skew-curved RC box-girder bridges, based upon the results of the straight one. The developed equations may be helpful to the designers in proportioning, analysing, and designing such bridges, as the correlation coefficient is about 0.99.

In this study, an analysis was conducted to analyze the structural stability of the piezoelectric power generation module and to determine the optimal burying hole interval for concrete, the installation site of the power generation module. A piezoelectric element refers to a functional ceramic having a piezoelectric direct effect that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy and a piezoelectric reverse effect. In the analysis of the piezoelectric power generation module, the load condition was applied with about 16 tons and a total of 10 wheels in consideration of the container trailer. The purpose was to evaluate the stability of major components of the piezoelectric power generation module through finite element analysis. In order to determine the optimal burying location of the concrete ground for burying the piezoelectric power generation module, the stability of the ground structure according to the distance of the holes was determined. As a result of the analysis, the maximum stress of the piezoelectric power generation module was generated in the support spring, showing a stress of about 276.7 MPa. It was found that the spacing of holes for embedding the piezoelectric power generation module should be set to a minimum of 100 mm or more.

Reheating furnace is an essential facility of a rod mill plant where a billet is heated to the required rolling temperature so that it can be milled to produce wire. Although it is very important to obtain information on billet temperatures, it is not feasible during furnace operation. Consequently, a billet temperature profile should be estimated. Moreover, this estimation should be done within an appropriate time interval for an on-line application. In this paper, a billet heat transfer model based on 2D FEM(Finite Element Method) with spatially distributed emission factors is proposed for an on-line billet temperature estimation and also a measurement is carried out for two extremely different furnace operation patterns. Finally, the difference between the model outputs and the measurements is minimized by using a new optimization algorithm named uDEAS(Univariate Dynamic Encoding Algorithm for Searches) with multi-step tuning strategy. The obtained emission factors are applied to a simulation for the data which are not used in the model tuning for validation.

In this study, an improvement design method for reducing the vibration of fenders equipped in a tractor is proposed through the establishment of a finite element model and the topology optimization. As the original shapes of the parts cannot be altered, an improved design model was derived in which a stiffener was attached to the border of parts. Thus, the first resonance frequency was increased by approximately 16 Hz, which was confirmed to be the frequency interval for avoiding the idle and operating frequency of the engine. Finally the improved design model was applied to confirm the effect of vibration reduction. Therefore, it can be concluded that the improved design model of the tractor fender is effective at reducing vibrations of the tractor fender.

In this paper we derive relations which describe the geometry and kinematics of contact between the travelling wheel and stepped comb joint. From which we can obtain the impulse, impulsive force and its time interval due to travelling wheel impact which can not be taken from Carter's model or Newland and Cassidy's. The calculated transient responses of the comb joint structure to travelling wheel impact reveals that the proposed wheel contact model and Carter's give very similar results but Newland Cassidy's model make a quite different results from the others.

Urban railway systems are located under populated areas and are mostly constructed for underground structures which demand high standards of structural safety. However, the damage progression of underground structures is hard to evaluate and damaged underground structures may not effectively stand against successive earthquakes. This study attempts to examine initial damage-stage and to access structural damage condition of the ground structures using Earthquake Damage Monitoring (EDM) system. For actual underground structure, vulnerable damaged member of Ulchiro-3ga station is chosen by finite element analysis using applied artificial earthquake load, and then damage pattern and history of damaged members is obtained from measured acceleration data introduced unsupervised learning recognition. The result showed damage index obtained by damage scenario establishment using acceleration response of selected vulnerable members is useful. Initial damage state is detected for selected vulnerable member according to established damage scenario. Stiffness degrading ratio is increasing whereas the value of reliability interval is decreasing.
