Rock contains discontinuities at all scales. These discontinuities make rock behave in a complex way. This paper discusses a new approach to underground design based on the theory of rock fracture mechanics. The mechanism of deformation and failure of coal was studied by observing the distributions of length, orientation and spacing of the pre-existing as well as stress-induced cracks. Different types of crack information. The crack information is dependent on the scale used. The cracks propagate along the intersections of the pre-existing cracks, and both extensile and shear crack growth occur depending on the direction of the load relative to the bedding planes. An analytical model that takes into account both shear and extensile crack growth was developed to predict the nonlinear stress-strain behavior of coal including strain-hardening and strain-softening.

Studies of a number of Cu-Zr amorphous alloys have demonstrated that those exhibiting greater plastic strain during homogeneous deformation at room temperature show lower global plasticity associated with inhomogeneous deformation in a typical compression test. Using a combination of experiments and molecular dynamics simulations, we clarify this seeming paradox between the homogeneous and inhomogeneous deformation by exploring the microstructural aspects in view of the structural disordering, disorder-induced softening, and shear localization and relate these findings to the global plasticity of bulk amorphous alloys. Additional analyses were conducted to derive a simple structural parameter that allows the prediction of the global plasticity of bulk amorphous alloys.

본 논문에서는 실트 함유율이 높은 모래에 대한 정규압밀 등방배수 및 비배수 삼축압축시험(NCIU 및 NCID) 결과를 나타내었다. 유효구속응력 $100\sim400kpa$하에서 실트 함유율이 63%인 낙동강 모래 시료를 사용하여 실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과, 모래질 실트는 초기에는 압축이 되지만 전체적인 응력-변형률 곡선에서 최종적으로 체적팽창반응을 보였다. 모래질 실트의 거동은 낮은 소성 특성으로 인하여 점토와 모래보다 비하여 그 특성을 묘사하기가 어려웠다. 특히, 시료는 파괴 후 전단과정에서 팽창현상을 보였다. 모래질 실트의 전단거동과 전단강도정수는 응력-변형률 거동과 Mohr-Coulomb 파괴규준에 의하여 결정되는데, 전단거동은 파괴 후 변형률 연화 경향과 같이 체적변화가 증가하는 것으로 관찰되었다. 본 논문에서 모래질 실트의 전단과정 동안에 발생되는 팽창거동은 모래 함유율 뿐만 아니라 저점착력을 가진 세립자의 함유율에 의해서도 달라졌다.

본 논문은 국내 정유사에서 생산되는 도로 포장용 아스팔트에 대하여 노화에 따른 거동 특성을 파악하였다. 이를 위해 국내의 5개 정유회사에 생산되는 두가지 등급의 아스팔트 제품(침입도 85-100, 침입도 60-70)을 포함한 총 9종에 대하여 노화 단계별(노화 이전, 단기노화, 장기노화)로 국내 스트레이트 아스팔트의 침입도$(25^{\circ}C)$, 점도$(50^{\circ}C\;135^{\circ}C)$, 연화점, 및 DSR 시험$(-20^{\circ}C\sim30^{\circ}C)$을 수행하여, 아스팔트의 물성 변화 특성을 고찰하였다. 연구 결과, 국내 스트레이트 아스팔트의 거동은 고온($60^{\circ}C$근방) 및 상온$(10-30^{\circ}C)$범위에서 정유사 제품에 따라 상당한 차이를 나타내었으며, 저온의 경우에는 정유사 제품이나 등급에 관계없이 거의 유사한 거동을 나타내었다. 따라서 어느 정유사의 아스팔트를 사용하는가에 따라, 저온에서의 온도 균열에 대한 저항성은 다소 비슷한 수준일 것으로 판단되지만, 소성변형 및 피로 균열에 대한 저항성이 상이하게 나타날 것으로 판단된다.

폐타이어 재활용을 위한 열분해 공법으로 발생하는 열분해 카본블랙의 재활용 방안이 필요하다. 아스팔트 바인더의 소성변형 특성을 개선하기 위하여 페타이어 열분해 공법의 부산물인 카본블랙을 이용하였다. 원아스팔트에 열분해 카본블랙 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% 및 20%를 혼합하였고, 연화점, 침입도시험, 회전점도계 및 동적전단유동기시험을 시행하였다. 열분해 카본블랙을 혼합한 아스팔트 바인더의 연화점은 증가하였고, 인화점은 기준값을 만족하였다. 135도에서의 회전점도값은 증가하였고, 소성변형에 대한 저항성이 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.

The paper describes the mechanical behavior of short concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) columns with circular section. The efficiency of the steel tube in confining the concrete core depending on concrete strength and the steel tube thickness was examined. Fifteen columns were tested to failure under concentric axial loading. Furthermore, a mechanical model based on the interaction between the concrete core and the steel tube was developed. The model employs a volumetric strain history for the concrete, characterized by the level of applied confining stress. The situation of passive confinement is accounted for by an incremental procedure, which continuously updates the confining stress. The post-yield behavior of the columns is greatly influenced by the confinement level and is related to the efficiency of the steel tube in confining the concrete core. It is possible to classify the post-yield behavior into three categories: strain softening, perfectly plastic and strain hardening behavior. The softening behavior, which is due to a shear plane failure in the concrete core, was found for some of the CFT columns with high-strength concrete. Nevertheless, with a CFT column, it is possible to use high-strength concrete to obtain higher load resistance and still achieve a good ductile behavior.

A finite element model for the non-linear dynamic analysis of a reinforced concrete (RC) containment shell of a nuclear power plant subjected to extreme loads such as impact and earthquake is presented in this work. The impact is modeled by using an uncoupled approach in which a load function is applied at the impact zone. The earthquake load is modeled by prescribing ground accelerations at the base of the structure. The nuclear containment is discretized spatially by using 20-node brick finite elements. The concrete in compression is modeled by using a modified $Dr{\ddot{u}}cker$-Prager elasto-plastic constitutive law where strain rate effects are considered. Cracking of concrete is modeled by using a smeared cracking approach where the tension-stiffening effect is included via a strain-softening rule. A model based on fracture mechanics, using the concept of constant fracture energy release, is used to relate the strain softening effect to the element size in order to guaranty mesh independency in the numerical prediction. The reinforcing bars are represented by incorporated membrane elements with a von Mises elasto-plastic law. Two benchmarks are used to verify the numerical implementation of the present model. Results are presented graphically in terms of displacement histories and cracking patterns. Finally, the influence of the shear transfer model used for cracked concrete as well as the effect due to a base slab incorporation in the numerical modeling are analyzed.

The paper presents quasi-static numerical simulations of the behaviour of short reinforced concrete beams without shear reinforcement under mixed shear-tension failure using the FEM and four various constitutive continuum models for concrete. First, an isotropic elasto-plastic model with a Drucker-Prager criterion defined in compression and with a Rankine criterion defined in tension was used. Next, an anisotropic smeared crack and isotropic damage model were applied. Finally, an elasto-plastic-damage model was used. To ensure mesh-independent FE results, to describe strain localization in concrete and to capture a deterministic size effect, all models were enhanced in a softening regime by a characteristic length of micro-structure by means of a non-local theory. Bond-slip between concrete and reinforcement was considered. The numerical results were directly compared with the corresponding laboratory tests performed by Walraven and Lehwalter (1994). The advantages and disadvantages of enhanced models to model the reinforced concrete behaviour were outlined.

Experiments have demonstrated that a moderate amount of Be added to $Zr_{57.5}Cu_{38.3}Al_{4.2}$ amorphous alloy enhances the plasticity of the alloy. In particular, $Zr_{54}Cu_{36}Al_{4}Be_{6}$ alloy exhibited 19% of strain to fracture along with a strength exceeding 2 GPa. Energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy conducted on the $Zr_{54}Cu_{36}Al_{4}Be_{6}$ alloy exhibited the presence of compositional modulation, indicating that nm-scale phase separation had occurred at local regions. In this study, the role played by the nm-scale phase separation on the plasticity was investigated in terms of structural disordering, structural softening and shear localization in order to better understand the structural origin of the enhanced plasticity shown by the developed alloy.
