Numerous studies of the dynamic behavior of powders have been performed by Discrete Element Method (DEM). The behavior of powders can be analyzed using the DEM assuming that the powder is composed of spherical particles. Moreover, the assumption of spherical particle reduces the computing time significantly. However, the biggest problem with this assumption is the real shape of the particles. Some types of particles, such as calcium carbonate and colloidal copper, are needle shaped. Thus, analysis based on spherical particles can produce errors because of the incorrect assumption. In this research, we developed a new model to simulate needle-shaped particles using the DEM. In the model, a series of particles are connected and regarded as a rod. There is no relative motion among the particles. Thus, the behavior of the rod is rigid motion. To validate the developed model, we carried out the drop-and-bounce test with different initial angles. The results showed negligible error of less than 2%.

Simplified analytical solutions are developed for the dynamic analyses of an axially loaded pile foundation embedded in a transverse-isotropic, fluid-filled, poro-visco-elastic soil with rigid substratum. The pile is modeled as a viscoelastic Rayleigh-Love rod, while the surrounding soil is regarded as a transversely isotropic, liquid-saturated, viscoelastic, porous medium of which the mechanical behavior is represented by the Boer's poroelastic media model and the fractional derivative model. Upon the separation of variables, the frequency-domain responses for the impedance function of the pile top, and the vertical displacement and the axial force along the pile shaft are gained. Then by virtue of the convolution theorem and the inverse Fourier transform, the time-domain velocity response of the pile head is derived. The presented solutions are validated, compared to the existing solution, the finite element model (FEM) results, and the field test data. Parametric analyses are made to show the effect of the soil anisotropy and the excitation frequency on the pile-soil dynamic responses.

접착용 테이프 박리거동에 미치는 외부효과를 알아보고, 이를 설명하는 준강체 실린더 체인(semi-rigid body cylinder chain) 모델을 제안하였다. 먼저 평면으로부터 테이프를 떼어낼 때, 테이프의 거동을 정성적으로 파악하고, 이를 토대로 준강체 실린더 체인 모형을 도식화하였다. 그 다음 테이프를 떼어내는 힘에 미치는 여러 요소들(온도, 표면거칠기, 떼어내는 속도, 각도 의존성, 테이프 폭 등)의 효과와 이들의 민감도를 분석하여 동일한 실험 기준조건을 설정하고, 이 조건에서 평면으로부터 테이프를 떼어내는 힘(벡터)의 각도 의존성을 $10^{\circ}$ 간격으로 측정하였다. 실험결과는 본 연구에서 확립한 모형이론과 실험오차범위 내에서 잘 일치하였고, 다른 요소들의 효과는 현상론적 입장에서 정성적으로 잘 설명되었다. 이러한 이유로, 본 결과는 PSA 테이프의 접착력을 시험 평가하는 모델로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

철골조의 비탄성 거동을 해석하는데 있어 많은 고차해석법이 소개되고 있다. 이 해석법들은 부재의 불완전성과 잔류응력과 같은 재료적인 비선형성 그리고 기하학적 비선형성에 의한 2차 효과를 직접 해석과정에 반영하여 골조의 거동을 좀더 정확히 예측할 수 있다. 이 가운데 비교적 간편하면서도 정확성이 높은 수정소성힌지 해석법을 도입하고 반강접합부의 모델링을 위해 이미 개발하여 제안한 로그 모델을 적용 해석프로그램(RPH-2DF)을 작성하였다. 이 프로그램의 검증을 위해 두께 중복형 접합부를 갖는 골조실험 결과와 해석 결과를 비교하였다. 또한 강접 골조의 거동과 반강 접합부를 갖는 골조의 거동 차이를 규명하기 위해 MIDAS-GEN v4.2.2로 설계된 10층 가새 골조를 대상으로 RPH-2DF를 이용한 해석결과와 비교하였다.

Centrifuge model tests were used to simulate pile-raft composite foundation and pile-geogrid composite foundation with different pile spacing for researching the time effect of negative skin friction of rigid piles in high-speed railways. The research results show that the negative skin friction has a significant impact on the bearing capacity of composite foundation. Pile-raft composite foundation has higher bearing capacity compared to pile-geogrid composite foundation to reduce the effect of negative skin friction on piles. Both the foundation settlement and negative skin friction have significant time effect. The distribution of skin friction can be simplified as a triangle along the pile. The neutral point position moves deeper in the postconstruction stage at larger pile spacing. For pile-geogrid composite foundation, the setting of pile-cap affects the position of neutral point in the post-construction stage. Reinforced cushion with geotextile may promote the better performance of cushion for transmitting the loads to piles and surrounding soils. Arching effect in the cushion of the composite foundation is a progressive process. The compression of the rigid piles contributes less than 20% to 25% of the total settlement while the penetration of the piles and the compression of the bearing stratum below the pile tips contribute more than 70% of the total settlement. Some effective measures to reduce the settlement of soils need to be taken into consideration to improve the bearing capacity of pile foundation.

On mesoscopic level, concrete can be treated as a three-phase composite material consisting of mortar, aggregates and interfacial transition zone (ITZ) between mortar and aggregate. A lot of research has confirmed that ITZ plays a crucial role in the mechanical fracture process of concrete. The aim of the present study is to propose a numerical method on mesoscale to analyze the failure mechanism of reinforced concrete (RC) structures under mechanical loading, and then it will help precisely predict the damage or the cracking initiation and propagation of concrete. Concrete is meshed by means of the Rigid Body Spring Model (RBSM) concept, while the reinforcing steel bars are modeled as beam-type elements. Two kinds of RC members, i.e. subjected to uniaxial tension and beams under bending, the fracture process of concrete and the distribution of cracks, as well as the load-deflection relationships are investigated and compared with the available test results. It is found that the numerical results are in good agreement with the experimental observations, indicating that the model can successfully simulate the failure process of the RC members.

The Multi-Purpose Overload Robot (CMOR) is a key subsystem of China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR) remote handling system. Due to the long cantilever and large loads of the CMOR, it has a large rigid-flexible coupling deformation that results in a poor position accuracy of the end-effector. In this study, based on the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm, the spatial grid, and the linearized variable load principle, a variable parameter compensation model was designed to identify the parameters of the CMOR's kinematics models under different loads and at different poses so as to improve the trajectory tracking accuracy. Finally, through Adams-MATLAB/Simulink, the trajectory tracking accuracy of the CMOR's rigid-flexible coupling model was analyzed, and the end position error exceeded 0.1 m. After the variable parameter compensation model, the average position error of the end-effector became less than 0.02 m, which provides a reference for CMOR error compensation.

1g 진동대 실험을 수행할 때, 양 벽면이 고정되어 있는 강성토조를 시용하기도 한다. 1g 진동대 실험에 강성토조를 사용하는 경우 양 쪽 벽면에서 파동이 반사가 되고 모형지반의 동적 전단 변형이 구속되어 위상차 및 가속도 증폭이 제대로 발생하지 않는 문제가 생긴다. 반면 토조를 얇은 층(Laminate)으로 구성하고 각 층 사이의 수평거동을 허용해 주는 특수형태의 토조(층 분할 토조, Laminar Shear Box)를 사용하면 이와 같은 문제를 상당부분 해결할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 1g 진동대 실험을 통하여 경계 조건이 서로 다른 두 종류의 토조(강성토조; Rigid Box or Rigid container, 층 분할 토조; Laminar Shear Box or Laminar container)에 동적 특성이 동일한 연약한 모형 점토 지반을 조성하여 그 거동의 차이들을 정량적으로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 강성토조는 벽면의 강성으로 인해 지반내의 위상차가 적게 발생하였으며, 가속도 증폭 양상은 자유장 거동과 많이 다른 결과를 보였다. 이와 달리 층 분할 토조는 지반의 전단변위를 구속하지 않고 실제지반에서 발생하는 지반 내 위상차 및 가속도 증폭 현상을 상대적으로 잘 재현하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로, 층 분할 토조(Laminar shear box)는 강성토조(Rigid Box)와 비교할 때 자유장 지반의 동적거동을 더 정확히 재현해 주는 것을 실험결과를 통해 분석할 수 있었다.

The use of composite materials to strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) structures against blast terror has great interests from engineering experts in structural retrofitting. The composite materials used in this study are rigid polyurethane foam (RPF) and aluminum foam (ALF). The aim of this study is to use the RPF and the ALF to strengthen the RC panels under blast load. The RC panel is considered to study the RPF and the ALF as structural retrofitting. Field blast test is conducted. The finite element analysis (FEA) is also used to model the RC panel under shock wave. The RC panel performance is studied based on detonating different TNT explosive charges. There is a good agreement between the results obtained by both the field blast test and the proposed numerical model. The composite materials improve the RC panel performance under the blast wave propagation.

This study presents the structural analysis of car a seat frame by the finite element method. The load-deformation characteristics of seat frame are simulated according to the test requirements by FMVSS. Three dimensional modeling technique is applied to the components of the seat frame. The shell, solid , gap and rigid elements are employed to model the car seat frame assembly. Numerical results show that the recliner and kunckle plate are identified as the possible weak part of frame, and the results are well consistent with the experimental static load test. The current analysis model can provide useful informations to design a new car seat and can reduce the overall design cost and time.
