One of the most common strategies for retrofitting as-built reinforced concrete (RC) columns is to enlarge the existing section through the application of a new concrete layer reinforced by both steel transverse and longitudinal reinforcements. The present study was dedicated to developing a comprehensive model to predict the seismic behavior of as-built RC jacketed columns. For this purpose, a new sectional model was developed to perform moment-curvature analysis coupled by the plastic hinge method. In this analysis-oriented model, new methodologies were suggested to address the impacts of axial, flexural and shear mechanisms, variable confining pressure, eccentric loading, longitudinal bar buckling, and varying axial load. To consider the effective interaction between core and jacket, the monolithic factor approach was adopted to extent the response of the monolithic columns to that of a respective RC jacket strengthened column. Next, parametric studies were implemented to examine the effectiveness of the main parameters of the RC jacket strategy in retrofitting as-built RC columns. Ultimately, the reliability of the developed analytical model was validated against a series of experimental results of as-built and retrofitted RC columns.

The elastic plastic fracture toughness of this material is evaluated by the an unloading compliance method according to the ASTM E813-97 and E1152-97 method on the smooth and side groove 1CT specimens. The effect of smooth and side groove is studied on the material tearing modulus and characterizes the crack tip field under the plane stress and strain. SG-365 steel is observed that J-R curve and Tmat value decrease as 0%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. The 40% side grooved specimen is very useful in estimation of the $J_IC$. Because it is much easier than the smooth specimen to the onset of the ductile tearing by the R curve method. Besides. it improves the accuracy of toughness values, decreases the scattering the them and tunneling and shear lip by the side groove. Applicability of tearing modulus($T_J$ proposed by paris et al as instability panameter for this material is investigated.

This paper treats the failure analysis of prestressing steel wires with different kinds of localised damage in the form of a surface defect (crack or notch) or as a mechanical action (transverse loads). From the microscopical point of view, the micromechanisms of fracture are shear dimples (associated with localised plasticity) in the case of the transverse loads and cleavage-like (related to a weakest-link fracture micromechanism) in the case of cracked wires. In the notched geometries the microscopic modes of fracture range from the ductile micro-void coalescence to the brittle cleavage, depending on the stress triaxiality in the vicinity of the notch tip. From the macroscopical point of view, fracture criteria are proposed as design criteria in damage tolerance analyses. The transverse load situation is solved by using an upper bound theorem of limit analysis in plasticity. The case of the cracked wire may be treated using fracture criteria in the framework of linear elastic fracture mechanics on the basis of a previous finite element computation of the stress intensity factor in the cracked cylinder. Notched geometries require the use of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics and numerical analysis of the stress-strain state at the failure situation. A fracture criterion is formulated on the basis of the critical value of the effective or equivalent stress in the Von Mises sense.

Many aspects of the behavior of sands are affected by the content of non-plastic fine particles and these various aspects should be included in a constitutive model for the soil behavior. The fines content affects maximum and minimum void ratios, compressibility, shear strength, and static liquefaction under undrained conditions. Twenty-eight undrained triaxial compression tests were performed on mixtures of sand and fine particles with fines contents of 0, 10, 20, 30, 50, 75, and 100% to study the effects of fines on void ratio, compressibility, and the occurrence of static liquefaction. The experiments were performed at low consolidation pressures at which liquefaction may occur in near-surface, natural deposits. The presence of fines creates a particle structure in the soil that is highly compressible, enhancing the potential for liquefaction, and the fines also alter the basic stress-strain and volume change behavior, which should be modeled to predict the occurrence of static liquefaction in the field. The void ratio at which liquefaction occurs for each sand/fines mixture was determined, and the variation of compressibility with void ratio was determined for each mixture. This allowed a relation to be determined between fines content, void ratio, compressibility, and the occurrence of static liquefaction. Such relations may vary from sand to sand, but the present results are believed to indicate the trend in such relations.

The nonlinear numerical analysis of the impact response of reinforced concrete/mortar beam incorporated with the updated Lagrangian method, namely the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) is carried out in this study. The analysis includes the simulation of the effects of high mass low velocity impact load falling on beam structures. Three material models to describe the localized failure of structural elements are: (1) linear pressure-sensitive yield criteria (Drucker-Prager type) in the pre-peak regime for the concrete/mortar meanwhile, the shear strain energy criterion (Von Mises) is applied for the steel reinforcement (2) nonlinear hardening law by means of modified linear Drucker-Prager envelope by employing the plane cap surface to simulate the irreversible plastic behavior of concrete/mortar (3) implementation of linear and nonlinear softening in tension and compression regions, respectively, to express the complex behavior of concrete material during short time loading condition. Validation upon existing experimental test results is conducted, from which the impact behavior of concrete beams are best described using the SPH model adopting an average velocity and erosion algorithm, where instability in terms of numerical fragmentation is reduced considerably.

In this study, the layered structures of immiscible Fe and Cu metals were employed to investigate the interface evolution through solid-state mixing. The pure Fe and Cu powders were cold-consolidated by high-pressure torsion (HPT) to fabricate a layered Cu-Fe-Cu structure. The microstructural evolutions and flow of immiscible Fe and Cu metals were investigated following different iterations of HPT processing. The results indicate that the HPT-processed sample following four iterations showed a sharp chemical boundary between the Fe and Cu layers. In addition, the Cu powders exhibited perfect consolidation through HPT processing. However, the Fe layer contained many microcracks. After 20 iterations of HPT, the shear strain generated by HPT produced interface instability, which caused the initial layered structure to disappear.

It is normal to observe the presence of numerous cracks in coal body. And it has significantly effective on the mechanical characteristics and realistic failure models of coal mass. Therefore, this paper is to investigate the influence of crack parameters on coal body by comprehensive using theoretical analysis, laboratory experiments and numerical simulation through prepared briquette specimens. Different from intact coal body possessing single peak in stress-strain curve, other specimens with crack angle can be illustrated to own double peaks. Moreover, the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of specimens decreases and follow by increasing with the increase of crack angle. It seems to like a parabolic shape with an upward opening. And it can be demonstrated that the minimum UCS is obtained in crack angle $45^{\circ}$. In terms of failure types, it is interesting to note that there is a changing trend from tensile failure to tensile-shear mixing failure with tension dominant follow by shear dominant with the increase of crack angle. However, the changing characteristics of UCS and failure forms can be explained by elastic-plastic and fracture mechanics. Lastly, the results of numerical simulations are good consistent with the experimental results. It provides experimental and theoretical foundations to reveal fracture mechanism of coal body with non-penetrating single crack further.

암석의 미세구조에 대한 많은 연구는 실제 암석 관찰 뿐만 아니라 다양한 실험 장비를 이용하여 미구조의 발달 과정과 그 메커니즘을 이해하기 위해 수행되어 왔다. 변성이나 변형 작용 중에 입자 성장이나 입도의 변화를 일으킬 수 있는 광물 군집 내 입자 경계 이동 작용은 주요한 재결정작용 메커니즘 중 하나이다. 특히, 변형 과정 중 나타날 수 있는 입자 경계 이동의 연속적 관찰은 암석 유사 실험을 이용하여 수행될 수 있었다. 이번 연구에서는 다양한 실험 방법 중 유사 물질을 이용한 입자 성장 및 변형 실험 방법에 대해 기존 방법을 개량할 수 있는 실험 장비의 개발과 이를 통한 효과적인 미구조 분석 방법을 제시하였다. 개발된 실험 장비는 유사 물질 실험이 가능한 변형 장치와 실체 현미경에 회전 조작이 가능한 편광판들을 장착하여 광학적 조작이 가능하도록 구성되었다. 이들 장치들은 마이크로 컨트롤러를 통해 온도 및 변형 속도 제어 및 실험 동안 관찰되는 미구조 변화를 연속적으로 촬영할 수 있도록 자동화하여 구성되었다. 또한 편광판 회전 조작을 통해 취득되고 합성된 디지털 이미지들은 보다 정확한 입자 경계를 구분하고 분석할 수 있게 해주었다. 실험 결과의 입도 및 형태와 같은 미구조 분석을 위해 선분 교점 측정 방법과 입자 경계 트레이싱 방식을 비교하여 적용하였다. 유사물질로써는 석영과 유사한 광학적 성질을 가지는 노캠퍼(Norcamphor, C7H10O)라는 물질을 사용하였다. 개발된 장비의 실효성을 검증하고자 노캠퍼를 이용한 정적 입자 성장 실험과 단순 전단 변형 실험 및 이에 대한 미구조 분석을 수행하였다. 정적 입자 성장 실험은 시간이 지남에 따라 입자 수의 감소와 입도가 증가하는 전형적인 입자 성장 작용의 특징과 온도에 따른 성장 곡선들의 명확한 차이를 보여주었다. 중온-저변형율 조건의 단순 전단 변형 실험 결과는 평균 입도의 큰 변화는 없었으나, 입자 형태에 대해 전단 변형이 증가함에 따라 전단력 방향에 수직한 방향에 대해 약 53°의 방향으로 신장률이 증가하는 변화를 보여주었다. 이러한 미구조의 발달과정은 주어진 실험 조건에서 변형에 의해 입자 내부의 소성 변형과 내부 회복 작용이 균형을 이루면서 진행된 것으로 해석된다. 개량화 및 자동화된 실험장치를 이용한 이들 입자 성장 작용 실험 및 변형 실험의 예는 유사물질 실험에서 목적하는 바와 같이 실험 과정 동안의 입자의 미구조 변화과정을 순차적으로 관찰할 수 있고, 전체 수행 과정동안 수동적 조작없이 효율적으로 실험을 진행할 수 있다는 장점을 보여주었다.
