본 논문은 터널을 굴착중인 시공현장에서, 변위계측치를 이용하여 터널의 안정성을 신속하고 정량적으로 평가하기 위한 기법 개발에 관한 것이다. 국내외 터널시공현장에는 시공관리 기준치를 제시하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 관리기준치들은 그 근거가 불명확하며 시공현장마다 일관적인 기준이 설정되어 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 시공관리기준의 합리성을 확보하기 위하여 한계변형률 개념을 새롭게 도입하였다. 그리고 한계변형률 개념에 대한 공학적 의미에 대한 상세 검토를 수행하였다. 이를 위해서 먼저, 기존 연구자들에 의해 적용된 한계변형률 개념의 터널안정성 평가방법에 대한 공학적 타당성을 이론해석적인 방법으로 검토하였다. 이어서 상용프로그램을 이용하여 터널굴착시 발생한 굴착면의 변위정보를 획득하고, 이를 기존의 평가방법과 동일한 방법으로, 한계변형률 개념에 의한 터널안정성 평가를 수행하였다. 또한, 상용프로그램에 의해 획득한 굴착면 변위를 입력치로 하여 터널주변지반의 변형률을 수치역해석 기법으로 산정한 후, 이를 이용하여 한계변형률 개념에 의한 터널안정성 평가를 추가로 수행하였다. 결과적으로 한계변형률 개념을 활용함으로써 굴착중인 터널에 대하여 터널안정성을 신속하고 정량적으로 평가하는 것이 가능한 것으로 확인되었다.

The objective of this study is to develop a local failure criterion for a wall thinning defect of piping components. For this purpose, a series of tensile tests was performed using several types of simulated specimens with different stress states, including smooth round bar, notched round bar (five different notch radii), and grooved plate (three different groove radii). In addition, finite element (FE) simulations were performed on the simulated specimen tests and the results were compared with the test results. From the comparisons, the equivalent stress and strain corresponding to maximum load and final failure of notched specimens were proposed as failure criteria under tensile load. The criteria were verified by employing them to the estimation of failure of grooved plate specimens that simulate the wall thinning defect. It showed that the proposed criteria accurately estimate the maximum load and final failure of grooved plate specimen tests.

The hub hole in a wheel of vehicles usually formed with hole expansion process. Formability of material, especially the hole expansion ratio, is important to produce a fine hub hole. The hub hole expansion process is different from general forming process or bore expansion process in the viewpoint of forming a thick plate. In the hole expansion process of the plate with a hole, as the hole being expanded, the crack is occurred to outward direction at the boundary of a hole. Therefore, it is need to apply the fracture criterion in the hub hole expansion process. In this paper, the hub hole expansion process is simulated with commercial elasto-plastic finite element code, LS-DYNA3D considering some ductile fracture criteria. Fracture mode and hole expansion ratio is compared with respect to the fracture criteria. Analysis results demonstrate that only the effective plastic strain is not adequate to predict the fracture mode in the hub hole. And the analysis results also indicate that the ductile fracture criteria properly predict the fracture mode but hole expansion ratio is different with the result of each other because of their different characteristics.

In this study, V-notch part has been considered as one of safety components in rectangular cup used for mobile device. This kind of safety component in rectangular cup with the V-notch part, which controls adequately the increased internal pressure in the rectangular cup, plays an important role to prevent the explosion from the excessive internal pressure. The protecting mechanism on the mobile device against the explosion is that a series of fracture on the V-notch part at the critical internal pressure level occurs. Therefore, it is very crucial to estimate accurately the working pressure range of the safety device. Relationship between the working internal pressure and fracture phenomenon at V-Notch part was investigated through numerical analysis using ductile fracture criteria. Integral value, I, of the used ductile fracture criteria was calculated from effective stress and strain, and then the bursting pressure of the V-notch part was extracted. Comparisons between the estimated and experimental results show that this systematic approach to predict bursting pressure using the ductile fracture criteria gives fairly good agreements.

This paper treats the failure analysis of prestressing steel wires with different kinds of localised damage in the form of a surface defect (crack or notch) or as a mechanical action (transverse loads). From the microscopical point of view, the micromechanisms of fracture are shear dimples (associated with localised plasticity) in the case of the transverse loads and cleavage-like (related to a weakest-link fracture micromechanism) in the case of cracked wires. In the notched geometries the microscopic modes of fracture range from the ductile micro-void coalescence to the brittle cleavage, depending on the stress triaxiality in the vicinity of the notch tip. From the macroscopical point of view, fracture criteria are proposed as design criteria in damage tolerance analyses. The transverse load situation is solved by using an upper bound theorem of limit analysis in plasticity. The case of the cracked wire may be treated using fracture criteria in the framework of linear elastic fracture mechanics on the basis of a previous finite element computation of the stress intensity factor in the cracked cylinder. Notched geometries require the use of elastic-plastic fracture mechanics and numerical analysis of the stress-strain state at the failure situation. A fracture criterion is formulated on the basis of the critical value of the effective or equivalent stress in the Von Mises sense.

Unlike the existing truss models for shear and torsion analysis, in this study, the torsional capacities of reinforced concrete (RC) members were estimated by introducing multi-potential capacity criteria that considered the aggregate interlock, concrete crushing, and spalling of concrete cover. The smeared truss model based on the fixed-angle theory was utilized to obtain the torsional behavior of reinforced concrete member, and the multi-potential capacity criteria were then applied to draw the capacity of the member. In addition, to avoid any iterative calculation in the existing torsional behavior model, a simple strength model was suggested that considers key variables, such as the effective thickness of torsional member, principal stress angle, and strain effect that reduces the resistance of concrete due to large longitudinal tensile strain. The proposed multi-potential capacity concept and the simple strength model were verified by comparing with test results collected from the literature. The study found that the multi-potential capacity could estimate in a rational manner not only the torsional strength but also the failure mode of RC members subjected to torsional moment, by reflecting the reinforcing index in both transverse and longitudinal directions, as well as the sectional and material properties of RC members.

Ten strains of the entomopathogenic fungi Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana were evaluated to find the most effective strain for optimization studies. The first criterion tested for strain selection was the mortality (> 50%) of Spodoptera litura larvae after inoculation of the fungus for 4 days. Results on several bioassays revealed that B. bassiana BNBCRC showed the most virulence on mortality S. litura larvae (80% mortality). B. bassiana BNBCRC also showed the highest germination rate (72.22%). However, its conidia yield ($7.2{\times}10^8$ conidia/mL) was lower than those of B. bassiana B 14841 ($8.3{\times}10^8$ conidia/mL) and M. anisopliae M6 ($8.2{\times}10^8$ conidia/mL). The highest accumulative radial growth was obtained from the strain B14841 (37.10 mm/day) while the strain BNBCRC showed moderate radial growth (24.40 mm/day). M. anisopliae M6 possessed the highest protease activity (145.00 mU/mL) while M. anisopliae M8 possessed the highest chitinase activity (20.00 mU/mL) during 96~144 hr cultivation. Amongst these criteria, selection based on virulence and germination rate lead to the selection of B. bassiana BNBCRC. B. bassiana B14841 would be selected if based on growth rate while M. anisopliae M6 and M8 possessed the highest enzyme activities.

This paper presents an experimental study on the influence of principal stress direction and magnitude of intermediate principal stress on the undrained stress-strain-strength behaviors of Bangkok Clay. The results of torsional shear hollow cylinder and advanced triaxial tests with various principal stress directions and magnitudes of intermediate principal stress on undisturbed Bangkok Clay specimens are presented. The analysis of testing results include: (i) stress-strain and pore pressure behaviors, (ii) stiffness characteristics, and (iii) strength characteristics. The results assert clear evidences of anisotropic characteristics of Bangkok Clay at pre-failure and failure conditions. The magnitude of intermediate principal stress for plane-strain condition is also investigated. Both failure surface and plastic potential in deviatoric plane of Bangkok Clay are demonstrated to be isotropic and of circular shape which implies an associated flow rule. It is also observed that the shape of failure surface in deviatoric plane changes its size, while retaining its circular shape, with the change in direction of major principal stress. Concerning the behavior of Bangkok Clay found from this study, the discussions on the effects of employed constitutive modeling approach on the resulting numerical analysis are made.

An innovative analysis method is proposed in this paper for the determination of ultimate resistance of prestressed concrete beams. The proposed method can be applied to simply supported or continuous beams in a unified manner whether structure and external loads are symmetric or not. Through the iterative nonlinear strain compatibility solutions, this method can also be applied to the non-prismatic section/un-symmetrical composite structures under moving load. The conventional studies have used the failure criteria when the strain of concrete reaches 0.003. However compared with bonded case, the value of strain in the reinforcement is much smaller than bonded case, thus, unbonded prestressed cases show compressive failure mode. It is shown that the proposed method gives acceptable results within 5% error compared with the prior experimental results. It can be shown that the proposed method can reach the solution much faster than typical three-dimensional finite element analysis for the same problem. This method is applicable to the existing unbonded prestressed members where deterioration has occurred leading to the reduced ultimate resistance or safety. In all, the proposed procedure can be applied to the design and analysis of newly constructed structures, as well as the risk assessment of rehabilitated structures.

An overhead catenary system is the one of the main subjects for increasing speed in electric railway. When a vehicle increases the speed over 350km/h, vibrations and wave propagation reflections occur severely. Therefore, the system suitable for the speed are needed. A wave propagation speed of contact wire is the main criteria to determine the tension for the system. Therefore, a train speed is restricted below 70% of wave propagation speed of it in European railway code. In this study, we measured a strain and uplift of contact wire while HEMU-430X tain is operated for the speed-up trial test in Kyungbu high-speed railway. The measured strain and uplift are analyzed with wave propagation speed according to the speed-up. The more a train speed reaches to a propagation speed, the more measured strain is high. Through the study, an experimental approach is performed about the code which a train speed is restricted below 70% of wave propagation speed of it.
