Geotextile tubes are basically a huge sack filled with sand or dredged soil. Geotextile tubes are made of permeable woven or non-woven synthetic fibers (i.e., polyester or PET and polypropylene or PP). The geotextile tubes' performances in strength, dewatering, retaining solid particles and stacked stability have been studied extensively in the past. However, only little research has been done in the observation of the deformation behavior of geotextile tubes. In this paper, a large-scale apparatus for geotextile tube experiment is introduced. The apparatus is equipped with a slurry mixing station, pumping and delivery station, an observation station and a data station. For this study the large-scale apparatus was utilized in the studies regarding the stresses on the geotextile and the deformation behavior of the geotextile tube. Model tests were conducted using a custom-made woven geotextile tubes. Load cells placed at the inner belly of the geotextile tube to monitor the total soil pressure. Strain gauges were also placed on the outer skin of the tube to measure the geotextile strain. The pressure and strain sensors are attached to a data logger that sends the collected data to a desktop computer. The experiment results showed that the maximum geotextile strain occurs at the sides of the tube and the soil pressure distribution varies at each geotextile tube section.

Recently, an indirect displacement estimation method using data fusion of acceleration and strain (i.e., acceleration-strain-based method) has been developed. Though the method showed good performance on beam-like structures, it has inherent limitation in applying to more general types of bridges that may have complex shapes, because it uses assumed analytical (sinusoidal) mode shapes to map the measured strain into displacement. This paper proposes an improved displacement estimation method that can be applied to more general types of bridges by building the mapping using the finite element model of the structure rather than using the assumed sinusoidal mode shapes. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated by numerical simulations on a deck arch bridge model and a three-span truss bridge model whose mode shapes are difficult to express as analytical functions. The displacements are estimated by acceleration-based method, strain-based method, acceleration-strain-based method, and the improved method. Then the results are compared with the exact displacement. An experimental validation is also carried out on a prestressed concrete girder bridge. The proposed method is found to provide the best estimate for dynamic displacements in the comparison, showing good agreement with the measurements as well.

This research was performed to study the actual behavior of 1-2W type pipe greenhouse under the influence of typhoon by measuring the various strains in structural materials. These results can eventually be utilized in the design criteria as well as in the modification of conventional equation for calculating more realistic wind loads. The first data under the influence of Typhoon Olga arrived in Jinju on Aug. 1999 were obtained by strain gage with 10 sensor points. According to the data obtained, the typical variation of strain depending on wind pattern could be observed. The strains in structural frame were fluctuated very sensitively depending on the direction and magnitude of wind velocity. But some of the data were lost or missed by system's failure. A kind of inherent vibration pattern of greenhouse pipe frame was observed from the plotted data, but this phenomenon is not so clear as to be separated from the overall fluctuation so far. This experimental research is expected to be continued as a long term project to measure and analyze the strain pattern of structural frame depending on the various locations and section characteristics by way of adopting more efficient instrument with sufficient number of measuring points and accuracy.

A methodology is described for predicting the fatigue life of the resistance spot weldment including strain rate effect. Because it is difficult to perform a physical failure test with high strain rate, an analytical method is necessary to get the mechanical properties of various strain rate, To this end, quasi-static tensile-shear tests at several strain rate were performed on spot weldments of SPC. These test provided the empirical data with the strain rate. With these results, we formulated the function of fatigue life prediction using the lethargy coefficient which is the global material property from tensile test. And, we predicted the fatigue life of spot weldment at dynamic strain rate. To confirm this method for fatigue life prediction, analytical results were compared with the experimental fatigue data.

Natural frequencies and mode shapes are two important modal data which specify the system. If the real system and FE model don't have the same local physical parameters, there will be a difference between modal data from real system and FE model. Because there is little difference in displacement mode shapes measured by an accelerometer, displacement modal update based on mode shapes including measurement errors may not be successful. In this research, strain mode shapes are used as modal data because the strain mode shapes measured by strain gauges are more sensitive than the displacement mode shapes with respect to the change of the parameters concerned in FE stiffness matrix...

In this work, some inaccuracies and limitation of prior indentation theory, which is based on the deformation theory of plasticity and experimental observations, are first investigated. Then effects of major material properties on the configuration of indentation load-deflection curve are examined via incremental plasticity theory based finite element analyses. It is confirmed that subindenter deformation and stress-strain distribution from the deformation theory of plasticity are quite dissimilar to those from incremental theory of plasticity. We finally suggest the optimal data acquisition location, where the strain gradient is the least and the effect of friction is negligible. This data acquisition point increases the strain range by a factor of five.

이 논문에서는 재료의 단축하중 하에서의 응력-변형률 곡선을 예측하기 위하여 순환 신경망의 일종인 LSTM(Long Short-Term Memory) 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 석고와 규사를 혼합해 만든 재료에 일축압축시험을 수행하여 얻은 응력-변형률 데이터를 이용하였으며, 낮은 응력 구간의 초반 데이터를 활용해서 파괴 전까지의 거동을 예측하였다. 앞부분의 데이터를 활용하여 단계적으로 뒤쪽 구간의 값을 예측하는 LSTM 순환 신경망의 구조상 큰 응력에 대응하는 변형률을 예측할 경우에는 앞쪽 구간의 오차가 누적되어 실측값과 차이가 늘어났으나 전반적으로 높은 정확도로 응력-변형률 곡선을 예측하였다. 예측에 사용한 초기 데이터의 길이가 늘어나는 경우 정확도는 조금 증가했다. 그러나 접선을 이용한 단순 예측과의 성능 차이는 초기 데이터의 길이가 작은 경우에 두드러졌으며, 적은양의 데이터로도 응력-변형률 곡선 전체 구간의 예측을 가능하게 한다는 점으로부터 신경망 모델의 필요성을 확인하였다.

In this study, strain measurement and its applicability to estimated deflection curve using fiber bragg grating sensors was conducted. For this purpose, reinforced concrete beams were made and sensors were attached both on the surface of the beams and inside steel. Two types of sensors were used to detect strain on the beams and steel : fiber bragg grating sensors, electric resistance strain sensors. So fatigue test is done with measuring strain of specimen. In addition, this experiments estimates the optimum deflection curve that converts strain curve data measured by FBG sensors into deflection.
