One-dimensional rod theory is very effective as a simplified analytical approach to large scale or complicated structures such as high-rise buildings, in preliminary design stages. It replaces an original structure by a one-dimensional rod which has an equivalent stiffness in terms of global properties. The mechanical behavior of structures composed of distinct constituents of different stiffness such as coupled walls with opening is significantly governed by the local variation of stiffness. Furthermore, in structures with setback the distribution of the longitudinal stress behaves remarkable nonlinear behavior in the transverse-wise. So, the author proposed the two-dimensional rod theory as an extended version of the rod theory which accounts for the two-dimensional local variation of structural stiffness; viz, variation in the transverse direction as well as longitudinal stiffness distribution. This paper proposes how to deal with the two-dimensional rod theory for structures with setback. Validity of the proposed theory is confirmed by comparison with numerical results of computational tools in the cases of static, free vibration and forced vibration problems for various structures. The transverse-wise nonlinear distribution of the longitudinal stress due to the existence of setback is clarified to originate from the long distance from setback.

There are numerous structural details (Longitudinal beam, web plate, U-ribs and I-ribs) in the top and bottom plates of steel box girders, which have significant influences on the longitudinal stress (normal stress) distribution. Clarifying the influence of these structural details on the normal stress distribution is important. In this paper, the ultra-wide steel box girder with large cantilevers of the Jinhai Bridge in China, which is the widest cable-stayed bridge in the world, has been analyzed. A 1:4.5 scale laboratory model of the steel box girder has been manufactured, and the influence of structural details on the normal stress distribution in the top and bottom plates for four different load cases has been analyzed in detail. Furthermore, a three-dimensional finite element model has been established to further investigate the influence regularity of structural details on the normal stress. The experimental and finite element analysis (FEA) results have shown that different structural details of the top and bottom plates have varying effects on the normal stress distribution. Notably, the U-ribs and I-ribs of the top and bottom plates introduce periodicity to the normal stress distribution. The period of the influence of U-ribs on the normal stress distribution is the sum of the single U-rib width and the U-rib spacing, and that of the influence of I-ribs on the normal stress distribution is equal to the spacing of the I-ribs. Furthermore, the same structural details but located at different positions, will have a different effect on the normal stress distribution.

터널이 시공되는 환경은 다양하여 지형이 평탄하지 않거나 지표가 경사가 진 경우가 많으며, 이런 경우에는 지반내 응력의 분포가 일정하지 않다. 그러므로 이와 같은 환경에서는 얕은 터널 굴착에 따라 종방향 하중전이 특성이 달라서 그 영향이 불명확하다. 또한, 시공방법이나 지반조건 및 굴진면의 변위형태 등이 종방향 하중전이 발생경향에 영향 줄 것이므로, 이를 종합적으로 고려한 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지반의 경사를 $0^{\circ}$, $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$로 모사하고, 굴진면의 변위형태(상부 큰 변위, 등변위, 하부 큰 변위)에 따른 굴진면의 토압과 터널 천단상부의 종방향 하중전이 특성을 실험적으로 규명하였다. 연구결과 굴진면에서 변위가 발생하면 굴진면 토압이 감소하고 터널의 천단 하중이 증가하며, 굴진면의 토압변화량에 따라 터널 천단상부의 하중전이의 크기와 발생경향이 변화되었다. 따라서 굴진면의 토압변화가 터널 종방향 하중전이에 직접적인 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다. 지표경사가 작으면 하중전이 영역이 넓어지며 지표경사가 커질수록 종방향으로 전이되는 경향이 감소하고 굴진면 부근에서 집중되었다. 또한, 굴진면의 변위형태에 따라 종방향으로 전이되는 하중의 분포경향도 달라지므로 종방향 지반의 응력조건과 굴진면의 변위형태는 터널 종방향 하중전이의 형태와 크기에 영향을 주는 것으로 분석되었다.

본 연구의 목적은 하천에서 흐름방향 유속의 횡분포식에 기반하여 1차원 종분산계수를 이론적으로 유도하고 이들의 타당성을 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해 본 논문의 전편 "I. 흐름방향 유속의 횡포식"에서는 Shiono-Knight Model (일명 SKM)을 도입하여 삼각형 단면수로에서 횡분포식을 해석적으로 유도하였다. 본 논문의 후편 "II. 종분산계수"에서는 전편에서 유도된 유속의 횡분포식을 Fischer (1968)의 삼중 적분식에 대입하여 1차원 종분산계수 이론식을 새롭게 개발하였다. 본래 SKM은 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 근간으로 개발되어 주로 직선수로이면서 사다리꼴 단면이나 복단면 수로에 적용되어 왔지만, 본 연구에서는 사행으로인한 최심선의 변동을 고려할 수 있는 삼각형을 단면형상으로 가정하였다. 유도된 해석해를 검증하기 위해 자연하천에서 실측된 유속자료와 비교 분석하였다. 또한 유도된 횡분포식을 이용하여 단면평균유속을 산정하고, 이를 Manning의 유속식의 결과와 비교 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 이론식은 비록 유속의 횡분포를 경우에 따라서 섬세하게 재현하지는 못하더라도 조도계수를 포함한 몇 가지 기본적인 수리 및 지형자료만 측량한다면 유속의 관측없이 비교적 정확한 유속분포를 산출해 낼 수 있는 장점이 있었다.

This study is focused on fish fauna and distributional features along with physical gradients and stream orders in the Tamjin River basin, Korea. Fish sampling and investigation were conducted for 2 years from 2009 to 2010. Total number of fish species collected were 47 species of 16 family. The group of cyprinidae was mostly abundant. Both fish abundance and biotic index were declined with increasing altitude and longitudinal distance from the river mouth. Two species of Zacco temminckii and Pungtungia herzi were prevalent in most of sampling sites and showed no altitudinal and longitudinal differences. Most other species, however, were spatially restricted to specific regional altitudes. Several species including Zacco platypus, Squalidus gracilis majimae and P. herzi were broadly distributed from river mouth to 50 km. Eight species including Z. temminckii and Rhynchocypris oxycephalus only appeared in over 10 km from the river mouth. Both Odontobutis platycephala and Pseudobagrus koreanus were classified as "upstream dewelling species" observed only in over 30 km from the river mouth. High proportion of tolerant and omnivorous species were more dominated in the downstream zone of the dam, whereas intolerant and insectivorous species were abundant in the upstream zone of the dam. The variable of stream order showed positive relationship between number of fish species and total individuals collected. Sensitive species including insectivore had a declining tendency with increasing stream order, while tolerant specie including omnivore species had relatively increased with stream order. Overall, our study suggested that fish distribution considerably depends on altitudinal gradient and longitudinal distance from the river mouth as well as physical habitat.

This paper considers the problem of estimation of the Hurst parameter H ${\in}$ (1/2, 1) from longitudinal data with the error term of a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H that gives the amount of the long memory of its increment. We provide a new estimator of Hurst parameter H using a two scale sampling method based on $A{\ddot{i}}t$-Sahalia and Jacod (2009). Asymptotic behaviors (consistent and central limit theorem) of the proposed estimator will be investigated. For the proof of a central limit theorem, we use recent results on necessary and sufficient conditions for multi-dimensional vectors of multiple stochastic integrals to converges in distribution to multivariate normal distribution studied by Nourdin et al. (2010), Nualart and Ortiz-Latorre (2008), and Peccati and Tudor (2005).

Transverse stress and longitudinal crack which are induced by temperature difference in box-girder sections and slab of which box-girder is composed have an important effect on endurance and economical efficiency of bridges. The study on longitudinal behavior of bridges which are subject to thermal load is reflected on the design of bridges. But, the study on transverse behavior of bridges has been performed just recently in foreign countries of finding the cause of longitudinal crack and in Korea, has not been tried in spite of large temperature variance due to geographical condition. This study examines temperature distribution feature in box-girder sections and bridge behavior due to thermal load, with measuring temperature distribution and stress of PSC box-girder bridge which is being constructed actually, and investigates appropriateness of design thermal load of highway bridge design code.

Longitudinal fracture behavior of non-linear elastic beam configurations is studied in terms of the strain energy release rate. It is assumed that the beams exhibit continuous material inhomogeneity along the width as well as along the height of the crosssection. The Ramberg-Osgood stress-strain relation is used for describing the non-linear mechanical behavior of the inhomogeneous material. A solution to strain energy release rate is derived that holds for inhomogeneous beams of arbitrary cross-section under combination of axial force and bending moments. Besides, the solution may be applied at any law of continuous distribution of the modulus of elasticity in the beam cross-section. The longitudinal crack may be located arbitrary along the beam height. The solution is used to investigate a longitudinal crack in a beam configuration of rectangular cross-section under four-point bending. The crack is located symmetrically with respect to the beam mid-span. It is assumed that the modulus of elasticity varies continuously according a cosine law in the beam cross-section. The longitudinal fracture behavior of the inhomogeneous beam is studied also by applying the J-integral approach for verification of the non-linear solution to the strain energy release rate derived in the present paper. Effects of material inhomogeneity, crack location along the beam height and non-linear mechanical behavior of the material on the longitudinal fracture behavior are evaluated. Thus, the solution derived in the present paper can be used in engineering design of inhomogeneous non-linear elastic structural members to assess the influence of various material and geometrical parameters on longitudinal fracture.

The effective longitudinal shear modulus(LSM) of continuous composites is studied theoretically and numerically using 3-phase unit cell model. Circular, hexagonal and rectangular shapes of reinforced fiber are considered to predict the shear modulus as a function of elastic modulus of each phase and volume fraction of interphase and reinforced fiber. It is found that rectangular fiber shape in low fiber volume fraction($v_f$<30%) and circular fiber shape in high volume fraction($v_f$>40%) shows the higher longitudinal shear modulus. Also the obtained values of LSM for rectangular array and by numerical analysis are higher than those of hexagonal array and by theoretical analysis respectively. The reinforcing effects of interphase are more significant in cases of higher fiber volume fraction and circular fiber shape. Not only the spatial distribution and shape of reinforcing fiber but also the volume of interphase have a pronounced effects on the overall LSM. It is also found that the tangent moduous of 2-and 3-phase polymer matrix composites is insensitive to the shape and distribution of reinforcing fibers.

Longitudinal shear modulus of continuous fiber reinforced 2-phase composites is predicted by theoretical and numerical analysis methods. In this paper, circular, hexagonal and rectangular shapes of reinforced fiber are considered using unit cell concept. And fiber array is regular rectangular and hexagonal fiber arrangement. Longitudinal shear modulus is a function of fiber distribution pattern and fiber volume change. It is found that the rectangular array has a higher longitudinal shear modulus than the hexagonal one. Also, the rectangular fiber shape in lower fiber volume fraction and the circular fiber shape in higher fiber volume fraction show the higher longitudinal shear modulus. And it has been found that the theoretical and numerical predictions of the longitudinal shear modulus give a good agreement with the experimental data at lower fiber volume fraction. Both the distance and stress transfer between the fibers are discussed as the major determing factors.
