The mechanical behavior of prestressed concrete haunched beams (PSHBs) was investigated in depth using a finite element modeling technique in this study. The efficiency of finite element modeling was investigated in the first stage by taking into account a previous study from the literature. The first stage's findings suggested that finite element modeling might be preferable for modeling PSHBs. In the second stage of the research, a comprehensive parametric study was carried out to determine the effect of each parameter on PSHB load capacity, including haunch angle, prestress level, compressive strength, tensile reinforcement ratio, and shear span to depth ratio. PSHBs and prestressed concrete rectangular beams (PSRBs) were also compared in terms of capacity. Stochastic analysis was used in the third stage to define the uncertainty in PSHB capacity by taking into account uncertainty in geometric and material parameters. Standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and the most appropriate probability density function (PDF) were proposed as a result of the analysis to define the randomness of capacity of PSHBs. In the study's final section, a new equation was proposed for using symbolic regression to predict the load capacity of PSHBs and PSRBs. The equation's statistical results show that it can be used to calculate the capacity of PSHBs and PSRBs.

고장력볼트를 이용한 강부재의 체결에서 모재 및 덮개판의 과대공으로 인한 단면결손이 체결부에서 내하력의 저하가 우려되어 정적 인장시험을 실시하였다. 인장시험을 통하여 구해진 체결부의 파단시 최대하중을 단면결손율 및 설계강도와 비교하여 체결부의 내하력 변화를 파악하였다. 이에 따르면 단면결손율이 클수록 강도저하율이 컸으며 특히, 모재의 단면결손이 덮개판의 단면결손보다 강도저하에 대한 영향이 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타났다. 모재 및 덮개판을 과대공으로 제작한 고장력볼트 체결부는 표준공의 경우보다 내하성능이 다소 저하되었지만 파단시의 최대인장강도는 설계파단강도보다 15%이상 크게 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 과대공으로 제작된 고장력볼트 체결부에서 내하력저하에 미치는 영향이 미미하므로 강부재의 체결시공에 있어 과대공의 허용은 경제성과 효율성의 고취에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

이중 강-콘크리트 합성말뚝의 설계를 위한 지지력 평가 방법이 정립되지 않아 기존 강관말뚝 설계 지지력식이 활용되고 있다. 그러나 이들 설계식 간 지지력 예측 결과가 상이할 뿐만 아니라 일반적으로 가장 보수적인 결과를 채택하게 된다. 이러한 말뚝 지지력 평가방법은 설계의 신뢰성 및 경제성을 낮추게 된다. 본 논문은 수직하중을 받는 이중 강관 내 콘크리트 채움된 신형식 합성단면(DSCT) 말뚝의 역학적 거동을 수치해석적으로 조사하고, 여러 DSCT 말뚝 조건변화에 따른 연직지지력을 분석하였다. DSCT 말뚝 및 인접지반에 대한 축대칭 유한요소모델을 생성하였고, 이를 활용해 근입깊이, 말뚝 선단 채움재 강성, 말뚝 선단 채움재 높이, 기반암층 종류 변화에 따른 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 해석결과를 말뚝 설계 실무에서 주로 사용하는 선단 지지력 평가식과 비교하여 합성말뚝에 대한 기존 강관말뚝 지지력 산정식의 활용 가능성을 검토하였다.

This paper presents the section model for analysis of RC circular tower structures based on nonlinear material laws. The governing equations for normal strains due to the bending moment and the normal force are derived in the case when openings are located symmetrically in respect to the bending direction. In this approach the additional reinforcement at openings is also taken into account. The mathematical model is expressed in the form of a set of nonlinear equations which are solved by means of the minimization of the sums of the second powers of the residuals. For minimization the BFGS quasi-Newton and/or Hooke-Jeeves local minimizers suitably modified are applied to take into account the box constraints on variables. The model is verified on the set of data encountered in engineering practice. The numerical examples illustrate the effects of the loading eccentricity and size of the opening on the strains and stresses in concrete and steel in the cross-sections under consideration. Calculated results indicate that the additional reinforcement at the openings increases the resistance capacity of the section by several percent.

The miniaturization of the Air Handling Unit (AHU) has become an actual need because of the restriction of the using space on the vessel. In modern AHU’s construction, in which the fan section is at the end part of the ship, it’s very difficult to select a suitable capacity of evaporators, because the fan motor emits heat. Thus, the AHU structure has been changed as the fan section has been set before the cooling coil to get temperature values similar to the designed amount. Also, the air guider is installed in order to maintain equal air distribution after it passed the fan section. So, it is possible for air to equally pass the cooling coil. It is investigated three different geometries to find the best performance. Also, It is compared with the numerical and experimental results. The study found the case 3 gives the best results. The results of this study show the possible application of the new design.

In the frontal collision the spot welded hat-shaped section side member is the fundamental structure for automobiles and has a great amount of absorbing capacity. For this reason LS-DYNA3D has been used for analyzing impact collapse characteristics on hat shaped section member with respect to the valuables; thickness, width ratio and spot weld potch on impact load(7.19m/sec, 1034J). By comparing the results from simulation and the experimental results, the utilization of simulation has been certified.

SI process is one of the most advanced thermochemical water splitting cycles enabling mass production of hydrogen without emitting carbon dioxide when coupled to nuclear heat energy. The highest temperature (close to $1000^{\circ}C$) required in SI process is well matched with the outlet temperature of a coolant circulating a high-temperature gas-cooled reactor at around $950^{\circ}C$. In Section 3, some heat exchangers are included to recover heats from process flows at high temperature. In this work, we designed a heat exchanger based on the $1Nm^3/hr$ $H_2$ production capacity using commercial tools for chemical process design.

I-section prestressed concrete(I-PC) beam crack due to low tensile strength, may decrease rigidity and structural performance by excessive deflection. In an effort to this problem, in this research, I-section prestressed dual concrete(I-PDC) beam has been proposed, consisting of normal strength concrete in compression zone, and high performance steel fiber reinforced concrete(HPSFRC) with a bottom flange depth in tensile zone. Crack formation and its propagation are controlled by the HPSFRC in I-PDC beam. The initial cracking and service limit loads are increased along with the load carrying capacity and flexural stiffness.

The widely used spot welded sections of automobiles(hat and double hat shaped section members) absorb most of the energy in a front-end collision. The sections were tested with respect to axial static(10mm/min) and quasi-static(1000mm/min) loads. Based on these test results, specimens with various thicknesses, width ratios and spot weld pitches on the flange were tested at high impact velocity(7.19m/sec and 7.94m/sec) which simulates an actual car crash. Characteristics of collapse have been reviewed and structures for optimal energy absorbing capacity is suggested.

The compressive behavior up to failure of short concrete members reinforced with fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) is investigated. Rectangular cross-sections are analysed by means of a simplified elastic model, able also to explain stress-concentration. The model allows one to evaluate the equivalent uniform confining pressure in ultimate conditions referred to the effective confined cross-section and to the effective stresses in FRP along the sides of section; consequently, it makes it possible to determine ultimate strain and the related bearing capacity of the confined member corresponding to FRP failure. The effect of local reinforcements constitute by single strips applied at corners before the continuous wrapping and the effect of round corners are also considered. Analytical results are compared to experimental values available in the literature.
