This paper presented an experimental study of the bond-slip behavior of reactive powder concrete (RPC)-filled square steel tube. A total of 18 short composite specimens were designed forstatic push-out test, and information on their failure patterns, load-slip behavior and bond strength was presented. The effects of width-to-thickness ratio, height-to-width ratio and the compressive strength of RPC on the bond behavior were discussed. The experimental results show that:(1) the push-out specimens remain intact and no visible local buckling appears on the steel tube, and the interfacial scratches are even more pronounced at the internal steel tube of loading end; (2) the bond load-slip curves with different width-to-thickness ratios can be divided into two types, and the main difference is whether the curves have a drop in load with increasing slip; (3) the bond strength decreases with the increase of the width-to-thickness ratio and height-width ratio, while the influence of RPC strength is not consistent; (4) the slippage has no definite correlation with bond strength and the influence of designed parameters on slippage is not evident. On the basis of the above analysis, the expressions of interface friction stress and mechanical interaction stress are determined by neglecting chemical adhesive force, and the calculation model of bond strength for RPC filled in square steel tube specimens is proposed. The theoretical results agree well with the experimental data.

This paper addresses the behavior and strength of structural walls with a concrete compressive strength exceeding 69 MPa. This information also enhances the current database for improvement of design recommendations. The objectives of this investigation are to study the effect of axial-load ratio on seismic behavior of high-strength concrete flexural walls. An analysis has been carried out in order to assess the contribution of deformation components, i.e., flexural, diagonal shear, and sliding shear on total displacement. The results from the analysis are then utilized to evaluate the prevailing inelastic deformation mode in each of wall. Moment-curvature characteristics, ductility and damage index are quantified and discussed in relation with axial stress levels. Experimental results show that axial-load ratio have a significant effect on the flexural strength, failure mode, deformation characteristics and ductility of high-strength concrete structural walls.

쇄석다짐말뚝(GCP)은 수십 년 동안 사용되어 왔지만, 팽창, 전단파괴와 기타 현상과 같은 파괴가 여전히 발생하여 보다 정교한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 선행연구 분석과 수치해석을 통해 치환율과 지반강도에 따른 응력 및 침하거동을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 유한요소해석 프로그램 ABAQUS를 사용하여 GCP로 개량된 복합지반을 모델링하여 지반강도와 치환율에 따라 복합지반의 응력과 침하를 분석하였다. GCP로 개량된 복합지반에 대하여 유한요소법을 이용한 수치해석을 실시하였으며, 치환율과 지반강도에 따른 복합지반의 응력관련계수와 침하저감계수의 관계를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 지반강도와 치환율이 증가할수록 깊이 별 평균 응력관련계수와 응력분담비는 증가하는 경향이 나타났다. 상부에서의 응력관련계수는 동일하게 증가하는 경향이 나타났지만, 응력분담비는 감소하였다. 따라서 상부층에서의 값은 다른 깊이에서의 값들과 다른 경향이 나타나므로 상부층에서의 측정된 값으로 복합지반 설계 시 과오를 범할 수 있으니 주의가 필요하다. 또한 기존 침하저 감계수식과 수치해석을 통한 침하저감계수와 비교 분석하였는데, 기존 식과 수치해석을 통하여 구한 값은 유사하게 나타났다.

This study deals with interface charactristics of tube and tubesheet of the nuclear steam generator by the explosive expansion in order to take advantage of optimum expansion ratio, pull-out strength and leakage tightness and improvement of the resisitance on the stress corrosion cracking for low residual stress. The paper also show the relationship between roll, hydraulic and explosive expansion. The results obtain are as follows (1) Because of the explosive bonding is to use the high speed pressure and energy by the explosive, workability is good, bonding region is homogenous (2) Expansion ratio is 2.7%, Pull-out strength 850kg, Leakage strength $500kg/cm^2$. Clearance gap is 10~30mm in case of explosive expansion and interface structure of the tube and tubesheet is optimum condition. (3) As the transition region of the explosive expansion is inactive, the resistance of the stress corrosion cracking is increases 30~40% compare to the roll and hydraulic expansion.

This paper aims to synthesize the research on fatigue fracture mechanisms of high strength aluminum alloys which are widely used in motorcars or airplanes to prevent accidents. To measure the data of crack opening ratio, the same materials and method are used for evaluating the fatigue crack propagation rate as an effective stress intensity factor. But, many researchers have brought different results. An exact crack opening ratio was, therefore, proposed for getting a more accurate fatigue crack propagation rate. The main conclusions obtained are as follows. (1) As a result of the fatigue test, the value of the crack opening ratio is the same regardless of the stress ratio. (2) The value of crack opening ratio is different according to the measuring point. After measuring the crack propagation rate by using an effective stress intensity factor, the crack opening ratio value measured at the crack mouth by a clip gage, or measured rear of the specimen by a strain gage is more accurate than that by any other measuring test.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the compressive behavior and characteristics of amorphous metallic fiber-reinforced concrete (AMFRC). Compressive tests were carried out for two primary parameters: fiber volume fractions ($V_f$) of 0, 0.3, 0.6 and 0.8 %; and design compressive strengths of 27, 35, and 50 MPa at the age of 28 days. Test results indicated that the addition of amorphous metallic fibers in concrete mixture enhances the toughness, strain corresponding to peak stress, and Poisson's ratio at high stress level, while the compressive strength at the 28-th day is less affected and the modulus of elasticity is reduced. Based on the experimental results, prediction equations were proposed for the modulus of elasticity and strain at peak stress as functions of fiber volume fraction and concrete compressive strength. In addition, an analytical model representing the entire stress-strain relationship of AMFRC in compression was proposed and validated with test results for each concrete mix. The comparison showed that the proposed modeling approach can properly simulate the entire stress-strain relationship of AMFRC as well as the primary mechanical properties in compression including the modulus of elasticity and strain at peak stress.

This paper reports the numerical investigation conducted to study the influence of Local-Distortional (L-D) interaction mode buckling on post buckling strength erosion in fixed ended lipped channel cold formed steel columns. This investigation comprises of 81 column sections with various geometries and yield stresses that are carefully chosen to cover wide range of strength related parametric ratios like (i) distortional to local critical buckling stress ratio ($0.91{\leq}F_{CRD}/F_{CRL}{\leq}4.05$) (ii) non dimensional local slenderness ratio ($0.88{\leq}{\lambda}_L{\leq}3.54$) (iii) non-dimensional distortional slenderness ratio ($0.68{\leq}{\lambda}_D{\leq}3.23$) and (iv) yield to non-critical buckling stress ratio (0.45 to 10.4). The numerical investigation is carried out by conducting linear and non-linear shell finite element analysis (SFEA) using ABAQUS software. The non-linear SFEA includes both geometry and material non-linearity. The numerical results obtained are deeply analysed to understand the post buckling mechanics, failure modes and ultimate strength that are influenced by L-D interaction with respect to strength related parametric ratios. The ultimate strength data obtained from numerical analysis are compared with (i) the experimental tests data concerning L-D interaction mode buckling reported by other researchers (ii) column strength predicted by Direct Strength Method (DSM) column strength curves for local and distortional buckling specified in AISI S-100 (iii) strength predicted by available DSM based approaches that includes L-D interaction mode failure. The role of flange width to web depth ratio on post buckling strength erosion is reported. Then the paper concludes with merits and limitations of codified DSM and available DSM based approaches on accurate failure strength prediction.

Recently there has been a remarkable increase in the number of high speed and large ships and the high power involved for propulsion of above ships has brought high pitch ratio and highly skewed propeller. The recent tendency toward highly skewed propeller has increased the load on propeller blades, and the fatigue strength of propeller blades has become the critical point in design of propellers for ships. In this paper the effect of stress ratio and skew angle on the fatigue strength of highly skewed propeller, the statistical inference on the total revolutions of highly skewed propeller for 20 years under normal sea going state. and so on have been discussed. On the basis of above discussions, the highly skewed propeller blade thicknesses by the rules of classification society and the standards of manufacturer in country were compared and reviewed.

Soils are natural granular materials whose mechanical properties differ according to the size and composition of the particles, so soils exhibit an obvious scale effect. Traditional soil mechanics is based on continuum mechanics, which can not reflect the impact of particle size on soil mechanics. On that basis, a matrix-reinforcing-particle cell model is established in which the reinforcing particles are larger-diameter sand particles and the matrix comprises smaller-diameter bentonite particles. Since these two types of particles deform differently under shear stress, a new shear-strength theory under direct shear that considers the stress concentration and bypass phenomena of the matrix is established. In order to verify the rationality of this theory, a series of direct shear tests with different reinforcing particle diameter and volume fraction ratio are carried out. Theoretical analysis and experimental results showed that the interaction among particles of differing size and composition is the basic reason for the size effect of soils. Furthermore, the stress concentration and bypass phenomena of the matrix enhance the shear strength of a soil, and the volume ratio of reinforcing particles has an obvious impact on the shear strength. In addition, the newly proposed shear-strength theory agrees well with experimental values.

An assessment of liquefaction potential is made in principle by comparing earthquake induced shear stress to the liquefaction strength of the soil. In this research a modified method based on Seed and Idriss theory is developed for evaluating liquefaction strength of Jumunjon sand(Korean standard sand). Also the factors affecting liquefaction strenght such as cyclic shear stress amplitude and relative density are investigated and verified by using cyclic triaxial test. From the result the new relationships between cyclic shear stress ratio and number of load cycles are proposed for evaluating liquefaction strength under moderated magnitude(M=6.5) of earthquake.
