Ballasted track is under the circumstance of repetition of deterioration and recovery. Track deterioration is presented as track irregularity or settlement, and dynamic force subjected to track is one of major cause of the deterioration. The dynamic force is determined from the dynamic interaction between track and vehicle. Rail-pad stiffness is one of the factor affects track dynamic property. In this study, the relationship between rail-pad stiffness and track settlement was investigated. Dynamic forces according to various rail-pad stiffness was obtained from the dynamic vehicle-track interaction analysis using DARTS-NL. Track settlement was calculated by substitution the dynamic forces into various formulas for track settlement. From the result of analysis, it was known that the track settlement is increased about 6% when the rail-pad stiffness rise about twice. And this result leads that there is only a little relationship between rail-pad stiffness and track settlement.

본 연구에서는 수직증축 구조물의 기존말뚝의 축강성(K_ve)을 이론적인 접근과 현장 계측 결과를 바탕으로 추정하였다. 이론적인 접근에는 Randolph와 Wroth(1978)가 제안한 축강성 공식을 적용하여, 지중에 설치된 강성 및 연성말뚝의 세장비(L/D)에 따른 축강성의 범위를 도출하였다. 여기에, 1995 - 1997년 사이에 설치된 38본 말뚝의 계측된 시공 당시 축강성을 이론적으로 도출한 축강성 범위에 중첩해서 고려하였다. 이를 통하여, 노후화와 열화에 의하여 감소한 기존말뚝의 축강성의 최대값을 세장비에 따라 제안하였고, 도출된 값을 통계적인 기법을 통하여 상위 95% 값을 제안하여 신설 보강말뚝 설계 시 필요한 최소 축강성(K_vr)을 산정하는 데에 활용할 수 있도록 하였다.

This paper develops practical models and methods for the assessment of safety and rating of damaged and/or deteriorated bridges by incorporating a system identification technique for the explicit inclusion of the degree of deterioration or damage and of the actual bridge response. And, based on the proposed model, reliability-based rating methods are proposed as LRFR(Load and Resistance Factor Rating) and system reliability-index rating criteria. The proposed limit state model explicitly accounts for the degree of deterioration or damage in terms of the damage and response factors. The damage factor in the paper is proposed as the ratio of the current stiffness to the intact stiffness. Based on the observation and the results of applications to existing bridges, it may be concluded that the proposed rating models, which explicitly account for the uncertainties and the effects of degree of deterioration or damage based on the system identification technique, provide more realistic and consistent safety-assessment and capacity-rating.

본 연구는 현장조사 및 실내시험을 바탕으로 궤도형식별 열화에 영향을 미치는 핵심매개변수를 도출하였다. 기존 궤도 열화모델은 자갈궤도에 국한된 모델로서 콘크리트궤도의 열화평가는 연구된 것이 없는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 운행선 궤도형식별 다양한 궤도구조의 특성이 반영된 열화요인을 도출하고자 궤도구성품의 성능수준 및 상태평가를 위한 실내시험을 수행하였다. 또한 궤도유지관리 이력데이터에 대한 분석을 통해 궤도열화 및 유지관리에 영향을 미치는 매개변수를 도출하였다. 현장조사, 궤도유지관리 이력데이터 분석 및 현장시료를 이용한 궤도구성품의 성능시험을 통해 궤도성능기반의 궤도열화 매개변수는 궤도침하 및 궤도지지강성에 직접적인 영향을 미칠 수 있는 도상자갈과 방진패드인 것으로 분석되었다.

This paper presents investigations on the hysteretic behavior of concrete-filled circular tubular (CFCT) T-joints subjected to axial cyclic loading at brace end. In the experimental study, four specimens are fabricated and tested. The chord members of the tested specimens are filled with concrete along their full length and the braces are hollow section. Failure modes and load-displacement hysteretic curves of all the specimens obtained from experimental tests are given and discussed. Some indicators, in terms of stiffness deterioration, strength deterioration, ductility and energy dissipation, are analyzed to assess the seismic performance of CFCT joints. Test results indicate that the failures are primarily caused by crack cutting through the chord wall, convex deformation on the chord surface near brace/chord intersection and crushing of the core concrete. Hysteretic curves of all the specimens are plump, and no obvious pinching phenomenon is found. The energy dissipation result shows that the inelastic deformation is the main energy dissipation mechanism. It is also found from experimental results that the CFCT joints show clear and steady stiffness deterioration with the increase of displacement after yielding. However, all the specimens do not perform significant strength deterioration before failure. The effect of joint geometric parameters ${\beta}$ and ${\gamma}$ of the four specimens on hysteretic performance is also discussed.

Purpose: To determine whether liver stiffness (LS) measured by magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) can predict the outcome of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Materials and Methods: A total of 107 patients with Child-Pugh class A liver function who were treated with RFA for single HCC and who had undergone a gradient-echo MRE within 6 months before RFA were included. We evaluated the relationship between the LS values and the ablation volume, local tumor progression (LTP), and intrahepatic distant recurrence (IDR). We also constructed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves to examine the role of LS in predicting liver function deterioration, which was defined as an increase of Child-Pugh score by one point or more at 1 year after RFA. Results: There was no significant correlation between LS and ablation volume, and neither time to LTP nor IDR was associated with LS. Among the 66 patients who did not have recurrence 1 year after RFA, 5 patients (7.6%) developed liver function deterioration. A high LS value was significantly associated with development of liver function deterioration after RFA and the area under the ROC curve was 0.764 (95% CI 0.598-0.929, P = 0.003). Conclusion: LS measured by MRE could not predict ablation volume and tumor recurrence. However, high LS values were significantly associated with development of liver function deterioration.

본 연구에서는 수직증축 공동주택 하부 신설 보강말뚝의 축강성(K_vr)을 기존말뚝의 열화를 고려한 이론적인 접근과 수치해석을 통하여 산정하였다. 3차원 유한요소 수치해석을 수행하는 과정에서, 이론적인 접근과 38본의 시험 말뚝계측 결과를 통하여 제안된 열화를 고려한 기존말뚝 축강성(K_ve)의 상한 값을 적용하였다. 이를 통해, 수직증축 리모델링으로 인하여 증가된 하중을 안정적으로 지지하기 위한 신설 보강말뚝의 최소 축강성을 산정하였다. 신설 보강말뚝의 축강성 제안은 선단지지 말뚝과 마찰말뚝에 대해 수행하였고, 다양한 세장비(L/D)에 따라 제안하였다. 해석기법은 기존말뚝의 설계 당시의 양호한 상태를 고려한 말뚝지지 전면기초 거동 해석과 열화가 고려된 기존말뚝의 축강성을 적용한 말뚝지지 전면기초 거동 해석을 수행하였다. 두 해석기법에 대한 검증을 수행한 결과 말뚝지지 전면기초 거동해석이 가능한 것으로 확인되었고, 이를 통하여 기존말뚝의 열화가 발생하였을 때 선단지지 신설 보강말뚝 축강성이 44 - 67% 증가되어야 수직증축 구조물의 안정성이 확보됨을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study is to propose an analytical model for the simulation of the hysteretic behavior of RC (reinforced concrete) beam-column subassemblages under various loading histories. The discrete line element with inelastic rotational springs is adopted to model the different locations of the plastic hinging zone. The hysteresis model can be adopted for a dynamic two-dimensional inelastic analysis of RC frame structures. From the analysis of test results it is found that the stiffness deterioration caused by inelastic loading can be simulated with a function of basic pinching coefficients, ductility ratio and yield strength ratio of members. A new strength degradation coefficient is proposed to simulate the inelastic behavior of members as a function of the transverse steel spacing and section aspect ratio. The energy dissipation capacities calculated using the proposed model show a good agreement with test results within errors of 27%.

Elastomeric bearing is used as one of the most useful way for isolation structures, because the horizontal stiffness is much lower than the vertical stiffness. The quality of Elastomeric bearing depends on the vulcanization procedure to manufacture, which produces the elasticity of the rubber from the compound of rubber and sulphur. The durability of Elastomeric bearing is affected by the deterioration due to ozone and ultra-violet attack. but the durability during the design life of bridges can be assured by the sufficient size of the bearing in spite of the deterioration in surface. In the design criteria of Elastomeric bearing, the stability of the bearings is evaluated by shear strain due to compression, lateral displacement, and rotation. The question how soft rubber can sustain heavy structure is now able to be solved by Ultimate capacity test of Laminated elastomeric Bearings, which results 1,200kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ of the max. compressive stress and this shows what a sufficient safety factor Elastomeric bearing has!
