Tension stiffening effects of reinforced concrete member with large diameter bar, mainly used at reactor building of nuclear power plant, are studied by uniaxial structural tests. Bond length and stress of steel bar, size of steel bar, and compressive strength of concrete are evaluated to tension stiffening by uniaxial tests. Problems and solution during the uniaxial test are suggested. The prevent splitting cracks, concrete cover-to-bar diameter ratio $c/d_{b}$ is kept 2.6~2.8. Because the bond length is increased as the size of steel bar, the specimen length of the D35 steel bar is required at least 2.0 m. The specimen length must be decided with bond length as well as concrete cover-to-bar diameter ratio to prevent splitting crack.

This study deals with the microstructure and tensile properties of 600 MPa-grade seismic reinforced steel bars fabricated by a pilot plant. The steel bar specimens are composed of a fully ferrite-pearlite structure because they were air-cooled after hot-rolling. The volume fraction and interlamellar spacing of the pearlite and the ferrite grain size decrease from the center region to the surface region because the surface region is more rapidly cooled than the center region. The A steel bar specimenwith a relatively high carbon content generally has a higher pearlite volume fraction and interlamellar spacing of pearlite and a finer ferrite grain size because increasing the carbon content promotes the formation of pearlite. As a result, the A steel bar specimen has a higher hardness than the B steel bar in all the regions. The hardness shows a tendency to decrease from the center region to the surface region due to the decreased pearlite volume fraction. On the other hand, the tensile-to-yield strength ratio and the tensile strength of the A steel bar specimen are higher than those of the B steel bar with a relatively low carbon content because a higher pearlite volume fraction enhances work hardening. In addition, the B steel bar specimen has higher uniform and total elongations because a lower pearlite volume fraction facilitates plastic deformation caused by dislocation slip.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) attached with 1 GHz center frequency antenna has been used to measure a dielectric constant of mortar, and to detect and locate a steel bar embedded inside laboratory size mortar specimens at various depth. Mortar specimens are made for the measurements with the dimensions of 100cm (width)$\times$100cm (length)$\times$14cm (depth). Each specimen has a 13mm diameter D13 steel bar at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12cm depth. In this paper, results of radar measurments are provided with a sample output, which successfully located the bar. It has been found that the reflected wave of the steel bar interacts with that of surface when the steel bar has the close distance to the surface.

Flash butt welding is applied in many industries. New technology was developed recently for joining billets which called "EBROS (Endless Bar Rolling System)". After reheating billets in furnace, two billets were joined using flash butt welding. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of alloying elements on mechanical properties of flash butt welded zone of hot rolled steel bar. The tensile properties on welded zone of Fe-Mn steel and Fe-Mn-V steel were dropped as compared with non-welded zone. Fe-Mn-Nb steel was opposed to the former. It was found that the white band at the welded zone had high ferrite volume fraction and large ferrite grain size. The vertical white band between flash butt welded billets was transformed into an arrowhead it of steel bar. According to this band, softening has been appeared. There was a interesting phenomenon with HAZ of Fe-Mn-Nb Steel, 40nm scale of particles were observed and hardness of HAZ was higher than non-welded zone.

콘크리트 표면에 4개의 전극배열을 이용한 비파괴 표면측정법을 통하여 철근의 피복을 벗겨내지 않고도 콘크리트 내 철근의 부식상태 및 철근의 배치상태를 추정할 수 있다. 표면측정법 모델링은 부식된 철근과 주위 콘크리트사이의 계면 임피던스가 콘크리트 표면에서 측정된 임피던스와 어떤 관련이 있는지를 보여준다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트에 매립된 철근 크기와 콘크리트 피복두께 등의 탐지를 위하여 철근부식 표면측정 모델링을 이용하였다. 모델링 결과 철근 크기가 D10에서 D35로 커짐에 따라 표면임피던스 변화가 나타났으며, 또한 콘크리트 피복두께가 0.02 m에서 0.1 m로 커짐에 따라 그 변화에 대한 영향이 표면측정 임피던스를 통해 나타났다. 그러므로 표면측정법 모델링을 통하여 콘크리트 내 철근부식반응을 시뮬레이션 할 수 있으며, 동시에 철근직경과 매입 깊이 등에 대한 정보도 얻을 수 있음 알 수 있다.

The effect of manganese sulfide (MnS) inclusions on the machinability of free-cutting steel is based on their morphology, size and distribution. Furthermore, the plasticity of MnS is high during the hot working caused different characterization of MnS. In this study, the deformation behavior of MnS in 1215MS steel after a thermomechanical process was investigated at 1323 K. The microstructures of MnS inclusions were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectrometry, and electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD). As the thickness reduction of the inclusions increased from 10 to 70%, their average aspect ratio increased from 1.20 to 2.39. In addition, the deformability of MnS inclusions was lower than that of the matrix. The possible slip systems of A, B, C, and D plane traces were (${\bar{1}}0{\bar{1}}$)[${\bar{1}}01$], ($10{\bar{1}}$)[101], (011)[$01{\bar{1}}$], and (110)[$1{\bar{1}}0$]. Furthermore, the EBSD measurements suggested that slip planes in MnS inclusions occur on {110} planes.

This paper deals with the electromagnetic loss characteristics of enclosures for a 24kV high voltage switchgear by using a finite element method (FEM). A study on the electromagnetic characteristics of enclosures for a high voltage switchgear should be conducted to minimize the size and the temperature rising of a switchgear. Generally, the enclosures made by stainless steel are used to minimize the eddy current loss caused by the transporting current in Bus bars due to its non-magnetic characteristics although the price of stainless steel is expensive compared with other metal for enclosures. Therefore, a switchgear made by stainless steel enclosures could be fabricated as a small size and are applied to a switchgear in urban substations. On the contrary, the switchgear enclosures made by steel could be fabricated with relatively cheap manufacturing price. However, the temperature easily rises due to the transporting current in Bus bars because steel is a ferromagnetic material. Therefore, the size of a switchgear made by steel enclosures is relatively massive and installed in rural substations. In this paper, the electromagnetic losses in the enclosures of a switchgear according to various enclosure thicknesses are calculated and compared with each other. Especially, we proposed a hybrid type enclosures for a switchgear made by stainless steel (top and bottom enclosure) and steel (left and right enclosure). It is concluded that the cost electromagnetic performance of applying the hybrid type enclosure is favorable to develop a high voltage switchgear.

Effects of ferrite grain size on static and dynamic deformation behaviors of SCM415 stels were investigated in this study. Dynamic torsional test was conducted using torsional Kolsky bar with the strain rate of $1.6{\times}10^3/s$. Specimens with three different grain size of ferrite, $4.6{\mu}m$, $11{\mu}m$, $35.5{\mu}m$ were used. Dimple fracture mode of the dynamic test specimens showed adiabatic shear bands on the beneath of fracture surface. Increased uniform elongation and decreased non-uniform elongation appeared as grain size of ferrite decreased in dynamic torsional test. However, shear strength was independent on grain size of ferrite.

Metaheuristic algorithm is used to solve the weight minimization problem of truss structures considering shape, and sizing design variables. The cross-sectional areas of the line element in trusses are the design variables for size optimization and the changeable joint coordinates are the shape optimization used in this study. The design of plane and spatial truss structures are optimized by metaheuristic technique named Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (TLBO). Finite element analyses of structures and optimization process are carried out by the computer program visually developed by the authors coded in MATLAB. The four benchmark problems (trusses 2D ten-bar, 3D thirty-seven-bar, 3D seventy-two-bar and 2D two-hundred-bar) taken from literature are optimized and the optimal solution compared the results given by previous studies.
