Three-dimensional graphic objects created by MATLAB are exported to the AUTOCAD program through the MATLAB handle functions. The imported SAT format files are used to produce the finite element mesh for MSC.PATRAN. Based on the Monte-Carlo random sample principle, the material heterogeneity of cement composites with randomly distributed fibers is described by the WEIBULL distribution function. In this paper, a concept called "soft region" including micro-defects, micro-voids, etc. is put forward for the simulation of crack propagation in fiber-reinforced cement composites. The performance of the numerical model is demonstrated by several examples involving crack initiation and growth in the composites under three-dimensional stress conditions: tensile loading; compressive loading and crack growth along a bimaterial interface.

An analysis method for the reliability of ceramic structures subjected to thermal shocks is presented, Flaws with the size of given probability distribution function are assumed to be distributed at random with a certain density per unit volume in the structures. Criterions for crack instability are derived for brittle solids under general thermal stresses. A probabilistic failure model is presented to study the probability of crack instability for blittle solids containing cracks with uncertain crack size. The reliabilities of brittle structures are evaluated based on the weakest-link hypothesis, which states that a structure fails when the cracks in any differential volume become unstable. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the application of the proposed method.

본 연구에서는 마찰교반용접된 AA7075-T651 판재의 피로균열전파저항의 공간적 불규칙성에 미치는 초기균열위치의 영향에 대하여 고찰되었다. 본 연구의 목적은 3가지 다른 초기균열위치에 따른 피로균열전파저항의 통계적 성질을 특성화하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 피로균열전파저항 계수를 하나의 확률과정으로 취급하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 모든 초기균열위치의 시험편에 대한 피로균열전파저항 계수는 2-파라메터 Weibull 분포에 잘 따름을 알 수 있었다. 피로균열전파저항 계수의 확률분포의 형상 파라메터는 BM-ICL 시험편이 7.50으로 가장 크게 나타났으며, WM-ICL 시험편이 2.61로 가장 낮았다. 또한 피로균열전파저항 계수의 자기상관함수는 초기균열위치 시험편에 관계없이 모두 지수함수로 평가될 수 있음을 알았다.

콘크리트 포장의 줄눈은 초기 콘크리트 슬래브에 건조수축과 온도변화에 의한 무작위 균열이 발생하지 않도록 해주어 도로포장의 공용성 향상에 기여한다. 하지만 콘크리트가 충분히 양생되기 전에 수행된 줄눈 절단 작업은 줄눈 주변의 콘크리트에는 미세균열 등의 손상을 발생시키고 이로 인하여 반복적인 교통 및 환경하중에 의한 줄눈부의 파손이 장기적으로 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 인위적인 줄눈 절단작업 때문에 발생할 수 있는 줄눈부 파손을 감소시키기 위하여 선행연구를 통해 개발된 100mm, 150mm, 220mm 높이의 줄눈균열 유도장치와 다양한 깊이를 갖는 균열유도 홈을 시험시공 구간에 설치하고 줄눈균열의 발생과 거동을 약 5개월에 걸쳐 조사하였다. 그 결과, 줄눈균열 유도장치의 높이가 높을수록 균열유도 효과가 높은 반면 줄눈균열의 거동은 큰 것으로 나타났다. 향후 추가적인 조사와 줄눈균열 유도장치의 개선을 통하여 균열유도 효율을 높이고 줄눈의 성능을 향상시켜야 할 것으로 판단되었다.

MIFARE Classic is the most popular contactless smart card, which is primarily used in the management of access control and public transport payment systems. It has several security features such as the proprietary stream cipher Crypto 1, a challenge-response mutual authentication protocol, and a random number generator. Unfortunately, multiple studies have reported structural flaws in its security features. Furthermore, various attack methods that target genuine MIFARE Classic cards or readers have been proposed to crack the card. From a practical perspective, these attacks can be partitioned according to the attacker's ability. However, this measure is insufficient to determine the optimal attack flow due to the refined random number generator. Most card-only attack methods assume a predicted or fixed random number, whereas several commercial cards use unpredictable and unfixable random numbers. In this paper, we propose optimal MIFARE Classic attack procedures with regards to the type of random number generator, as well as an adversary's ability. In addition, we show actual attack results from our portable experimental setup, which is comprised of a commercially developed attack device, a smartphone, and our own application retrieving secret data and sector key.

Artificial intelligence with a sufficient amount of realistic big data in certain applications has been demonstrated to play an important role in designing new materials or in manufacturing high-quality products. To reduce cracks in ceramic products using machine learning, it is desirable to utilize big data in recently developed data-driven optimization schemes. However, there is insufficient big data for ceramic processes. Therefore, we developed a numerical algorithm to make "virtual" manufacturing data sets using indirect methods such as computer simulations and image processing. In this study, a numerical algorithm based on the random walk was demonstrated to generate images of cracks by adjusting the conditions of the random walk process such as the number of steps, changes in direction, and the number of cracks.

Numerical value of correlation between effective parameters in the strength of a structure is as important as its stochastic properties in determining the safety of the structure. In this article investigation is made about the variation of coefficient of correlation between effective parameters in corrosion initiation time of reinforcement and the time of concrete cover cracking in reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Presence of many parameters and also error in measurement of these parameters results in uncertainty in determination of corrosion initiation and the time to crack initiation. In this paper, assuming diffusion process as chloride ingress mechanism in RC structures and considering random properties of effective parameters in this model, correlation between input parameters and predicted time to corrosion is calculated using the Monte Carlo (MC) random sampling. Results show the linear correlation between corrosion initiation time and effective input parameters increases with increasing uncertainty in the input parameters. Diffusion coefficient, concrete cover, surface chloride concentration and threshold chloride concentration have the highest correlation coefficient respectively. Also the uncertainty in the concrete cover has the greatest impact on the coefficient of correlation of corrosion initiation time and the time of crack initiation due to the corrosion phenomenon.

온도와 습도 변화에 의해 수축될 경우 콘크리트 포장 슬래브에는 인장응력이 생기고 이로 인해 무작위 균열이 발생한다. 일정한 간격으로 줄눈을 설치하고 균열을 유도함으로써 슬래브에 발생하는 인장응력을 줄이고 무작위 균열을 최소화할 수 있다.줄눈간격이 너무 넓으면 무작위 균열, 줄눈부 파손, 하중전달률 저하가 일어나고, 반대로 줄눈간격이 너무 좁으면 공사비 증가와 승차감 저하가 유발된다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 포장의 역학적-경험적 줄눈간격 설계방법을 개발하였다. 이를 위하여 우수한 공용성을 보이는 콘크리트 포장 구간 중 구조적 및 환경적으로 가장 취약한 구간을 찾고 그 구간에 대한 유한요소해석으로 설계기준강도를 결정하였다. 기존 연구결과를 참고하여 하중전달률이 급격히 낮아질 때의 줄눈폭을 허용줄눈폭으로 결정하였다. 유한요소해석으로 계산된 설계대상구간의 최대인장응력이 설계기준강도를 초과하지 않는 최대줄눈간격을 찾아냈다. 그리고 이 줄눈간격으로 예측된 최대줄눈폭을 허용줄눈폭과 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 방법을 설계 중인 함양-울산 고속도로의 두 공구에 적용해 보았다. 기존보다 넓은 8.0m의 줄눈간격으로 시험시공된 구간과 동일한 줄눈간격이 본 연구의 설계방법으로 계산되었다. 공용 6년 후 측정된 시험시공 구간의 매우 낮은 균열률로 본 연구에서 개발된 설계방법이 검증되었다.

In this paper, the fracture toughness and mechanisms of failure in a random SiC-whisker/$Al_{2}O_3$ ceramic composite were investigated using in situ observations during mode I(opening) loading. $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite was obtained by hot press sintering of $Al_{2}O_3$ powder and SiC whisker as the matrix and reinforcement, respectively. The whisker and powder were mixed using a turbo mill. The composite was produced at SiC whisker volume fraction of $0.3\%$. Compared with monolithic $Al_{2}O_3$, fracture toughness enhancement was observed in $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite. This improved fracture toughness was attributed to SiC whisker bridging and crack deflection. $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite exhibited typically brittle fracture behavior, but a fracture process zone was observed in this composite. This means that the load versus load-line displacement curve of $SiC_{w}/Al_{2}O_3$ composite from a fracture test may involve a small non-linear region near the peak load.

Due to the uncertainties related to the flaw assessment parameters, such as flaw size, fracture toughness, loading spectrum and so on, the probability concept is preferred over deterministic one in flaw assessment. In this study, efforts have been made to develop the reliability based flaw assessment procedure which combines the flaw assessment procedure of BS7910 and first-and second-order reliability methods (FORM/SORM). Both crack length and depth of semi-elliptical surface crack at weld toe were handled as random variable whose probability distribution was defined as Gaussian with certain means and standard deviations. Then the limit state functions from static rupture and fatigue perspective were estimated using FORM and SORM in joint probability space of crack depth and length. The validity of predicted limit state functions were checked by comparing it with those obtained by Monte Carlo simulation. It was confirmed that the developed methodology worked perfectly in predicting the limit state functions without time-consuming Monte Carlo simulation.
