Polycarbonate (PC) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) were welded by a combination of a diode laser and a CNC machining center. Laser beam delivered through the transparent PC and was absorbed in an opaque ABS. Polymers were melted and joined by absorbed and conducted heat. Experiments were carried out by varying working distance from 44mm to 50mm for the focus spot diameter control, laser input power from 10W to 25W, and scanning speed from 100 to 400mm/min. The weld bead and cross-section were analyzed for weld quality, and tensile results were presented through the joint force measurement. With focus distance at 48mm, laser power with 20W, and welding speed at 300mm/min, experimental results showed the best welding quality which bead size was measured to be 3.75mm. The shear strength at the given condition was $22.8N/mm^2$. Considering tensile strength of ABS is $43N/mm^2$, shear strength was sufficient to hold two materials. A single process was possible in a CNC machining system, surface processing, hole machining and welding. As a result, the process cycle time was reduced to 25%. Compared to a typical process, specimens were fabricated in a single process, with high precision.

Steel frames with ductile connections have good seismic performance under strong earthquake, they are now popular for high seismic design. In order to simplify the process of numerical analysis of the steel frames with ductile connections, simplified connection models are introduced, two types of springs are placed in the simplified connection model, which can simulate deformation of the panel zone and members. 6-story-3-bay steel frames with ductile connections are simplified and carried out modal analysis, fundamental periods of the frames predicted by finite-element analysis for simplified steel frame models were compared to the results for actual frame models. 2-story steel frame with reduced beam section connections is simplified and carried out pseudo-static analysis, hysteretic curves and skeleton curves of the frame obtained by finite-element analysis for simplified steel frame model are compared to test results. The comparison show that the difference between them is small, it is reliable and effective to predict mechanical properties of the steel frame with ductile connection by finite-element analysis of simplified steel frame model.

The superelastic viscous damper (SVD) is a hybrid passive control device comprising a viscoelastic damper and shape memory alloy (SMA) cables connected in series. The SVD is an innovative damper through which a large amount of seismic energy can dissipate. The current study assessed the seismic collapse induced by steel moment-resisting frames (SMRFs) equipped with SVDs and compared them with the performance of special MRFs and buckling restrained brace frames (BRBFs). For this purpose, nonlinear dynamic and incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) were conducted in OpenSees software. Both 5- and 9-story special MRFs, BRBFs, and MRFs equipped with the SVDs were examined. The results indicated that the annual exceedance rate for maximum residual drifts of 0.2% and 0.5% for the BRBFs and MRFs with SVDs, respectively, were considerably less than for SMRFs with reduced-beam section (RBS) connections and that the seismic performances of these structures were enhanced with the use of the BRB and SVD. The probability of collapse due to residual drift in the SVD, BRB, and RBS frames in the 9-story structure was 1.45, 1.75, and 1.05 times greater than for the 5-story frame.

H형강 철골 모멘트 골조에서는 기둥의 강축 방향 용접 모멘트접합부를 활용하는 것이 구조적으로 가장 이상적이다. 하지만, 모멘트 골조가 직교하는 경우, 기둥의 약축 방향으로도 용접 모멘트접합부를 사용해야 한다. 국내에서는 특히 강축 및 약축 방향 모두를 용접 모멘트접합부를 자주 사용하는 관행이 있다. 대표적인 연성내진상세인 RBS(reduced beam section, 보단면감소)접합부의 경우 국내외적으로 강축접합 위주로 실험연구가 진행되어 약축 RBS 용접모멘트접합부에 대한 실험자료가 매우 희소하다. 본 연구에서는 RBS를 도입한 약축 용접 모멘트접합부의 내진성능을 실험적으로 고찰하였다. Gilton-Uang (2002)의 선행연구를 참고하여 보 플랜지는 연속판과 맞댐용접하고 웨브는 전단이음판과 C-형 필릿용접부로 설계하여 실험을 수행하였다. 보에 사용된 강재가 내진용 강재가 아닌 일반 SS400 강재임에도 불구하고 3% 이상의 소성회전각을 발휘하였다. 제한된 결과이긴 하지만, 전단이음판과 보 웨브 사이의 C-형 필릿용접부 설계에서 보 웨브에 작용하는 휨모멘트와 전단력의 편심의 영향을 구체적으로 고찰할 필요가 있는 것으로 판단된다. 본 실험결과를 토대로 전단이음판 부근의 보 웨브 파단을 방지할 수 있는 C-형 필릿용접 형상 및 설계방안을 제안하였다. 보 플랜지와 연속판의 완전용입 용접부는 맞댄이음(butt joint) 형식이 되어 국부좌굴에 취약하고 이로 인해 피로파괴가 발생하는 경향이 있으므로 용접작업에 지장이 없는 범위에서 용접접근공(스켈럽)의 크기를 최소화할 필요가 있다. RBS형상, 스틱아웃, 트림, 연속판 두께 증가 등과 같이 이미 검증된 약축 모멘트 용접접합부의 내진상세들은 따르는 것이 바람직하다.

최근 기상이변에 따라 폭설로 인한 비닐하우스의 붕괴가 빈번해져서 농가의 피해가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 이에 대한 대책연구는 미약하여 매년 농가의 피해는 되풀이 되고 있다. 그리하여 본 연구에서는 고강도 변단면 부재를 이용한 모듈을 적용하여 근본적인 구조체의 붕괴를 방지하고, 인장타이재를 이용한 추가적인 보강을 통하여 비닐하우스의 붕괴를 방지하고자 한다. 비닐하우스 프레임의 경우 처짐설계보다는 강도설계에 의해 단면이 지배되므로 모멘트가 최대가 되는 부분에 고강도의 변단면 부재를 적용한다. 현재 설치된 비닐하우스의 형태는 아치의 형태를 하고 있으나, 구조적으로는 곡선부(보)와 직선부(기둥)가 불연속의 형상을 하고 있어 연직하중에 대해 아치거동보다는 프레임거동을 하는 취약한 구조시스템이다. 직선부재(기둥) 상단에 폭설 시에만 임시적으로 인장타이재를 추가함으로써 모멘트로 저항하던 프레임 구조체를 축력에 저항하는 타이아치형 구조체로의 단기적인 변화를 유도하여 구조체의 내력을 증가시키고자 한다. 고강도 변단면 부재를 이용하면 조합강도비가 10~30% 정도 감소하였으며, 인장타이재를 이용하여 추가보강하면 조합강도비가 절반 이하로 감소하였다.

In this paper, experimental investigations on high strength steel (HSS) stud connected steel-concrete composite (SCC) girders to understand the effect of shear connector density on their flexural behaviour is presented. SCC girder specimens were designed for three different shear capacities (100%, 85%, and 70%), by varying the number of stud connectors in the shear span. Three SCC girder specimens were tested under monotonic/quasi-static loading, while three similar girder specimens were subjected to non-reversal cyclic loading under simply supported end conditions. Details of casting the specimens, experimental set-up, and method of testing, instrumentation for the measurement of deflection, interface-slip and strain are discussed. It is found that SCC girder specimen designed for full shear capacity exhibits interface slip for loads beyond 25% of the ultimate load capacity. Specimens with lesser degree of shear connection show lower values of load at initiation of slip. Very good ductility is exhibited by all the HSS stud connected SCC girder specimens. It is observed that the ultimate moment of resistance as well as ductility gets reduced for HSS stud connected SCC girder with reduction in stud shear connector density. Efficiency factor indicating the effectiveness of high strength stud connectors in resisting interface forces is estimated to be 0.8 from the analysis. Failure mode is primarily flexure with fracturing of stud connectors and characterised by flexural cracking and crushing of concrete at top in the pure bending region. Local buckling in the top flange of steel beam was also observed at the loads near to failure, which is influenced by spacing of studs and top flange thickness of rolled steel section. One of the recommendations is that the ultimate load capacity can be limited to 1.5 times the plastic moment capacity of the section such that the post peak load reduction is kept within limits. Load-deflection behaviour for monotonic tests compared well with the envelope of load-deflection curves for cyclic tests. It is concluded from the experimental investigations that use of HSS studs will reduce their numbers for given loading, which is advantageous in case of long spans. Buckling of top flange of rolled section is observed at failure stage. Provision of lips in the top flange is suggested to avoid this buckling. This is possible in case of longer spans, where normally built-up sections are used.

전산화단층촬영기법은 투영 영상을 재구성하여 단면 영상을 획득하는 기법으로 다양한 분야에 적용되고 있다. 재구성된 영상의 공간분해능은 장치, 대상, 재구성 과정에 의존한다. 본 논문은 평행빔 구조에서 투영 영상의 개수 및 검출기의 픽셀 크기가 재구성된 영상의 공간분해능에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 재구성 프로그램은 Visual C++로 작성하였으며 단면 영상은 $512{\times}512$ 크기로 하였다. 공간분해능의 특성을 평가하기 위해 수학적 막대 팬텀을 구성하였고, Min-Max 방법을 도입하였다. 재구성에 사용되는 투영의 개수가 작은 경우 허상이 나타났으며 Min-Max도 낮았다. 투영의 개수를 지속적으로 증가시키면 재구성된 영상의 공간분해능을 나타내는 Min-Max는 상향 포화되었다. 검출기의 픽셀 크기를 재구성되는 단면 영상의 픽셀 크기의 50%로 줄이면 영상은 거의 완벽하게 복원되고, 검출기픽셀 크기가 증가할수록 Min-Max는 감소하였다. 본 연구는 CT장치 설계 시 요구되는 공간분해능을 달성하기 위해 필요한 검출기 및 회전 스테이지의 정밀도를 결정하는데 도움이 될 것이다.

In-plane and out-of-plane free vibration analysis of Timoshenko curved beams is addressed based on the isogeometric method, and an effective scheme to avoid numerical locking in both of the two patterns is proposed in this paper. The isogeometric computational model takes into account the effects of shear deformation, rotary inertia and axis extensibility of curved beams, and is applicable for uniform circular beams, and more complicated variable curvature and cross-section beams as illustrated by numerical examples. Meanwhile, it is shown that, the $C^{p-1}$-continuous NURBS elements remarkably have higher accuracy than the finite elements with the same number of degrees of freedom. Nevertheless, for in-plane or out-of-plane vibration analysis of Timoshenko curved beams, the NURBS-based isogeometric method also exhibits locking effect to some extent. To eliminate numerical locking, the selective reduced one-point integration and $\bar{B}$ projection element based on stiffness ratio is devised to achieve locking free analysis for in-plane and out-of-plane models, respectively. The suggested integral schemes for moderately slender models obtain accurate results in both dominated and non-dominated regions of locking effect. Moreover, this strategy is effective for beam structures with different slenderness. Finally, the influence factors of structural parameters of curved beams on their natural frequency are scrutinized.
