This paper presents a review on progressive collapse mechanism of steel framed buildings exposed to fire. The influence of load ratios, strength of structural members (beam, column, slab, connection), fire scenarios, bracing systems, fire protections on the collapse mode and collapse time of structures is comprehensively reviewed. It is found that the key influencing factors include load ratio, fire scenario, bracing layout and fire protection. The application of strong beams, high load ratios, multi-compartment fires will lead to global downward collapse which is undesirable. The catenary action in beams and tensile membrane action in slabs contribute to the enhancement of structural collapse resistance, leading to a ductile collapse mechanism. It is recommended to increase the reinforcement ratio in the sagging and hogging region of slabs to not only enhance the tensile membrane action in the slab, but to prevent the failure of beam-to-column connections. It is also found that a frame may collapse in the cooling phase of compartment fires or under travelling fires. This is because that the steel members may experience maximum temperatures and maximum displacements under these two fire scenarios. An edge bay fire is more prone to induce the collapse of structures than a central bay fire. The progressive collapse of buildings can be effectively prevented by using bracing systems and fire protections. A combination of horizontal and vertical bracing systems as well as increasing the strength and stiffness of bracing members is recommended to enhance the collapse resistance. A protected frame dose not collapse immediately after the local failure but experiences a relatively long withstanding period of at least 60 mins. It is suggested to use three-dimensional models for accurate predictions of whether, when and how a structure collapses under various fire scenarios.

인공동결공법은 일시적으로 지반의 강성을 높이고 투수계수를 낮추는 지반개량공법으로 지반에 적용가능하다. 하지만, 지하수 흐름과 지반의 불균질성은 동결구근 형성을 불확실하게 하여 공법에 대한 신뢰성을 저해한다. 동결지반 대한 열-수리 유한요소 해석 프로그램을 이용하여, 인공동결공법에서 지하수 흐름속도와 지반의 층상 비균질이 얼음벽 형성을 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 지하수의 흐름은 원형의 동결구근을 원형에서 타원형을 변형시키며 얼음벽의 완성 소요시간을 증가시킨다. 기존의 이론식은 인접 동결구근의 열적 상호작용을 무시하여, 얼음벽의 완결시간과 한계유속을 과대 평가하였다. 수치해석 결과를 바탕으로 수정식을 제시하였으며 무차원 얼음벽 완결시간에 대한 제안식을 검증하였다. 층상의 비균질 지반에서 투수계수가 큰 지층의 두께와 상대적인 투수계수비는 얼음벽 완결시간과 한계 유속에 중요한 인자인 것으로 나타났다.

After earthquakes FRP sheets are often used for the rehabilitation of damaged Reinforced Concrete (RC) beamcolumn connections. Connections with minor to moderate damage are often dealt with by applying FRP sheets after a superficial repair of the cracks using resin paste or high strength mortar but without infusion of thin resin solution under pressure into the cracking system. This technique is usually adopted in these cases due to the fast and easy-to-apply procedure. The experimental investigation reported herein aims at evaluating the effectiveness of repairing the damaged beam-column connections using FRP sheets after a meticulous but superficial repair of their cracking system using resin paste. The investigation comprises experimental results of 10 full scale beam-column joint specimens; five original joints and the corresponding retrofitted ones. The repair technique has been applied to RC joints with different joint reinforcement arrangements with minor to severe damage brought about by cyclic loading for the purposes of this work. Aiming at quantitative concluding remarks about the effectiveness of the repair technique, data concerning response loads, loading stiffness and energy absorption values have been acquired and commented upon. Furthermore, comparisons of damage index values and values of equivalent viscous damping, as obtained during the test of the original specimens, with the corresponding ones observed in the loading of the repaired ones have also been evaluated and commented. Based on these comparisons, it is deduced that the technique under investigation can be considered to be a rather satisfactory repair technique for joints with minor to moderate damage taking into account the rapid, convenient and easy-to-apply character of its application.

The setting of values on door hinge mounting compensation for door assembly tolerance is a constant quality issue in vehicle production. Generally, heuristic methods are used in satisfying appropriate door gap and level difference, flushness to improve quality. However, these methods are influenced by the engineer's skills and working environment and result an increasement of development costs. In order to solve these problems, the system which suggests hinge mounting compensation value using CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) analysis is proposed in this study. A structural analysis model was constructed to predict the door gap and level difference, flushness through CAE based on CAD (Computer Aided Design) data. The deformations of 6-degrees of freedom which can occur in real vehicle doors was considered using a stiffness model which utilize an analysis model. The analysis model was verified using 3D scanning of real vehicle door hinge deformation. Then, system model which applying the structural analysis model suggested the final adjustment amount of the hinge mounting to obtain the target door gap and the level difference by inputting the measured value. The proposed system was validated using the simulation and showed a reliability in vehicle hinge mounting compensation process. This study suggests the possibility of using the CAE analysis for setting values of hinge mounting compensation in actual vehicle production.

U-flanged truss beam is composed of u-shaped upper steel flange, lower steel plate of 8mm or more thickness, and connecting lattice bars. Upper flange and lower plate are connected by the diagonal lattice bars welded on the upper and lower sides. In this study the structural experiments on the U-flanged truss beams with various shapes of upper flange were performed, and the flexural and shear capacities of U-flanged truss beam in the construction stage were evaluated. The principal test parameters were the shape of upper flange and the alignment space of diagonal lattice bars. In all the test specimens, the peak loads were determined by the buckling of lattice bar regardless of the upper flange shape. The test results have shown that the buckling of lattice bar is very important design factor and there is no need to reinforce the basic u-shaped upper flange. However, the early lattice buckling occurred in the truss beam with upper steel bars because of the insufficient strength and stiffness of upper chord, and the reinforcement in the upper chord is necessary. The formulae of Eurocode 3 (2005) have presented more exact evaluations of lattice buckling load than those of KBC 2016.

겨울철 발생하는 아스팔트 혼합물의 저온균열의 정량적 분석 및 평가를 위해서는 해당 아스팔트 혼합물의 저온응력이 반드시 계산되어야 하며, 이는 현재 대한민국, 미국 북부 및 캐나다 지역에서 포장 유지관리, 설계에 있어서 매우 중요한 사항 중 하나이다. 일반적으로 아스팔트 혼합물의 저온응력은 크리프 시험과 시간중첩이론을 바탕으로 계산되며 전통적으로 두 수학적 단계를 통해 계산된다. 우선 수학적, 수치적 변환과정(홉킨스-해밍 알고리즘)을 통해 크리프-강성응력에서 이완응력이 계산된다. 다음으로 이완응력 지배곡선을 구현한 후 회선적분의 수치해석적 접근을 통해 아스팔트 혼합물의 저온응력이 최종적으로 계산된다. 상기의 과정은 복잡하며, 시간이 오래 걸리는 단점이 있다. 이번 논문에서는 보다 간편한 라플라스 변환을 통해 해당 아스팔트 혼합물의 저온응력을 계산하였으며, 이의 결과를 전통적 계산 기법과 비교, 분석하였다. 결론적으로 새로이 제안된 라플라스 변환 기법은 보다 아스팔트 혼합물의 저온응력을 효과적, 효율적으로 계산할 수 있음이 발견되었다.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the core muscle strength enhancement of the elderly on 8 weeks training using the core exercise equipment for the elderly on the ability to control the whole-body center of mass in posture stabilization. Method: 16 females (10 exercise group, 6 control group) participated in this study. Exercise group took part in the core strength training program for 8 weeks with total of 16 repetitions (2 repetitions per week) using a training device. External perturbation during standing as pulling force applied at the pelvic level in the anterior direction was provided to the subject. In a UCM model, the controller selects within the space of elemental variables a subspace (a manifold, UCM) corresponding to a value of a performance variable that needs to be stabilized. In the present study, we were interested in how movements of the individual segment center of mass (elemental variables) affect the whole-body center of mass (the performance variable) during balance control. Results: At the variance of task-irrelevant space, there was significant $test^*$ group interactions ($F_{1,16}=7.482$, p<.05). However, there were no significant main effect of the test ($F_{1,16}=.899$, p>.05) and group ($F_{1,16}=1.039$, p>.05). At the variance of task-relevant space, there was significant $test^*$ group interactions ($F_{1,16}=7.382$, p<.05). However, there were no significant main effect of the test ($F_{1,16}=.754$, p>.05) and group ($F_{1,16}=1.106$, p>.05). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the 8 weeks training through the core training equipment for the elderly showed a significant decrease in the $Vcm_{TIR}$ and $Vcm_{TR}$. This result indicates that the core strength training affects the trunk stiffness control strategy to maintain balance in the standing position by minimizing total variability of individual segment CMs.

콘크리트는 시멘트와 골재를 포함한 복합재료로써 건조 수축이라는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 이에 대하여 많은 연구가 콘크리트를 균질재료로 가정하여 수행되어 왔다. 그러나, 수축은 콘크리트를 구성하는 특정 구성 성분에만 작용하는 현상이기 때문에 기존의 평균화된 유효물성(effective properties)의 개념으로 규명하기에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 콘크리트의 특징적인 거동 중의 하나이며 지금까지 많은 연구들이 수행되어 왔지만, 아직 불확실성이 많은 콘크리트의 수축 현상을 비균질성을 고려한 전산해석(heterogeneous simulation)을 통해 분석하는 방법을 제안하였다. 골재와 모르타르를 별도로 모델링하는 메소모델을 이용하여 모르타르에만 수축 변형을 가하는 방법으로 콘크리트의 수축 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과에 따르면 콘크리트의 수축에 의한 균열 발생은 골재의 강성과 부재의 구속도에 의해 크게 영향을 받는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 수축에 의한 콘크리트의 균열발생은 단순한 하나의 값으로 나타내지 못하는 현상이며, 골재의 강성과 부재의 구속도는 그에 큰 영향을 주는 요소들이었다.

The objective of this study is to analyze the mechanical properties of plywood used as a thermal insulating material for LNG CCS (Liquefied Natural Gas, Cargo Containment System). It is created by bonding an odd number of parallel and perpendicular direction for preventing contraction and expansion of wood. Also plywood is widely used as LNG CCS insulating material because of its durability, light weight and high stiffness. Since LNG CCS is loaded with liquid cargo, the impact load by sloshing during operation and the wide temperature range (room temperature, low temperature, cryogenic temperature) exposed during loading, unloading should be considered. The thickness of the plywood which is used for the membrane type MARKIII was selected as the thickness of the test specimen. In this present study, plywood is analyzed by the fracture behavior and mechanical properties of plywood by temperature and grain direction. In addition, it is necessary to analyze the fracture shape and predict the fracture strain by using regression model because the critical load may cause cracks inside the tank, which may affect the leakage of cryogenic liquid.
