Experimental and numerical studies of a newly developed Reduced Beam Section (RBS) connection, called Tubular Web RBS connection (TW-RBS) have been recently conducted. This paper presents experimental and numerical results of extending the plastic hinge length on the beam flange to increase energy dissipation of a proposed version of the TW-RBS connection with two pipes, (TW-RBS(II)), made by replacing a part of flat web with two steel tubular web at the desirable location of the beam plastic hinge. Two deep-beam specimens with two pipes are prepared and tested under cyclic loads. Obtained results reveal that the TW-RBS(II) like its type I, increases story drift capacity up to 6% in deep beam much more than that stipulated by the current seismic codes. Based on test results, the proposed TW-RBS(II) helps to dissipate imposed energy up to 30% more than that of the TW-RBS(I) specimens at the same story drift and also reduces demands at the beam-to-column connection up to 30% by increasing plastic hinge length on the beam flange. The TW-RBS(II) specimens are finally simulated using finite element method showing good agreement with experimental results.

Reliable and accurate method of computationally aided design processes of advanced thin walled structures in automotive industries are much essential for the efficient usage of smart materials, that possess higher energy absorption in dynamic compression loading. In this paper, most versatile components i.e., thin walled crash tubes with different geometrical profiles are introduced in view of mitigating the impact of varying cross section in crash behavior and energy absorption characteristics. Apart from the geometrical parameters such as length, diameter and thickness, the non-dimensionalized parameters of average forces which control the plastic bending moment for varying thickness has explored in view of quantifying its impact on the crashworthiness of the structure. The explicit finite element code ABAQUS is utilized to conduct the numerical studies to examine the effect of parametric modifications in crash behavior and energy absorption. Also the simulation results are experimentally validated. It is evident that the circular cross-sectional tubes are preferable as high collision impact shock absorbers due to their ability in withstanding axial and oblique impact loads effectively. Furthermore, the specific energy absorption (SEA), crash force efficiency (CFE), plastic bending moment, peak force responses and its impact for optimally tailoring a design to cater the crashworthiness requirements are investigated. The primary outcome of the study is to provide sufficient information on circular tubes for the use of energy absorbers where impact oblique loading is expected.

Low cycle fatigue tests are performed on high strength low alloy steels that be developed for submarine material. The relation between absorbed plastic strain energy and numbers of cycle to failure is examined in order to predict the low cycle fatigue life of structural steels by using plastic strain energy method. The cyclic properties are determined by a least square fit techniques. The life predicted by the plastic strain energy method is found to coincide with experiment data and results obtained from the Coffin-Manson method. Also the cyclic behavior of structural steels is characterized by cyclic softening with increasing number of cycle at room temperature. Especially, low cycle fatigue characteristics and microstructural changes of structural steels are investigated according to changing tempering temperatures. In the case of PFS steels, the $\varepsilon$-Cu is formed in 550C of tempering temperature and enhances the low cycle fatigue properties.

IAEA의TRS-398물 흡수선량 표준 프로토콜에서 고 에너지 전자선의 물 흡수선량 결정에 있어서 10MeV이하의 에너지 에서만 사용하길 권고하고 있다. Plastic Water$^{TM}$ Virtual Water$^{TM}$ 고체 팬톰을 이용하여 전자선에 대한 hpl값을 측정하였다. 측정결과 Plastic Water$^{TM}$의 경우 6 MeV에서 20 MeV가지의 전자선에 대해 평균 0.9964의 값을 나타냈고, Virtual Water$^{TM}$의 경우 1.0156의 값을 나타냈다.

방사선량 측정을 위하여 섬광체와 광섬유를 이용한 원격 측정용 센서를 개발하였다. 유리 광섬유와 상용화된 플라스틱섬광체로 원거리 측정 가능성을 시험하였고, 에폭시 수지로 자체 개발한 섬광검출소재로 방사선 측정센서로써의 성능을 평가하였다. 에폭시 수지와 유기섬광물질의 배합별 물질 특성을 측정하여 최적의 조건을 도출하였다. 광섬유와 섬광체를 연결할 때, 불완전한 접속으로 인한 광 손실을 줄이기 위하여 섬광검출소재 제조 과정 중 소재내로 광섬유를 삽입하여 일체형으로 센서를 제조하였다. 일체형 센서는 유리광섬유의 단점을 보완하여 플라스틱 광섬유를 적용하였으며, 방사선 반응 체적별 검출효율을 평가하기 위하여 검출소재 밑단으로부터 일정 거리의 광섬유를 배치하여 측정하였다. 개발한 방사선 검출용 센서는 오염도 원거리 측정뿐만 아니라 측정센서로써의 적용도 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

Digital light processing three-dimensional (3D) printing technique is a powerful tool to rapidly manufacture plastic scintillators of almost any shape or geometric features. In our previous study, the main properties of light output and transmission were analyzed. However, a more detailed study of the other properties is required to develop 3D printed plastic scintillators with expectable and reproducible properties. The 3D printed plastic scintillator displayed an average decay time constants of 15.6 ns, intrinsic energy resolution of 13.2%, and intrinsic detection efficiency of 6.81% for 477 keV Compton electrons from the ¹³⁷Cs γ-ray source. The 3D printed plastic scintillator showed a similar decay time and intrinsic detection efficiency as that of a commercial plastic scintillator BC408. Furthermore, the presented estimates for the properties showed good agreement with the analyzed data.

In this study, in order to evaluate the shape and the size of the plastic zone at the notch tip before stable crack growth, a newly developed technique for plastic strain measurement, that is, the recrystallization-etching technique was applied to observe the intense strain zone at the notch tip of weld HAZ. 1) The recrystallized specimens showed that the amount of the intense strain zone, more than 20% plastic zone, was quantitatively observed as the plane strain state during the growth of the plastic zone. 2) The behavior of plastic deformation at midsection are different for parent and weld HAZ. In addition, the micro crack initiation occurs at midsection, parent and weld HAZ when the crack opening displacement(COD) value is .delta.$_{t}$=0.4mm. 3) The plastic zone for parent proceeds in the forward direction at notch tip and for weld HAZ in the right and left direction at the notch tip. 4) The relation between plastic strain energy(Wp) and COD(.delta.$_{t}$) depended on yield stress, gradient and plastic strain size.ize.

A simulation model of plastic greenhouse was developed to evaluate the insulation effect of thermal curtain. Change in thermal environment with and without thermal curtain was verified through experiments, which agreed with the predicted values satisfactorily. About 18 to 20% of energy was saved in the plastic greenhouse by employing the P.E. film thermal curtain. Employing P.E. film thermal curtain also raised the temperature of the covering film and inner air by $1^{\circ}C$ and $1.5{\sim}1.8^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Poly(urethane acrylate) siloxane oligomers with Interpenetrating polymer netwoked nanoparticles were prepared to synthesize hard coating solution by reaction with diisocyanates. The diisocyanate combined siloxane hard coating solution showed more flexibility than the siloxane solution. In addition, diisocyanate resulted in improvement of curl property and surface hardness in the siloxane solution. Of the used diisocyanates, isophorone diisocyanate and acryloyloxy ethyl diisocyanate were good for UV hard coating solution. This effect will decrease brittleness in the siloxane solution using for plastic display plate.
