Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs) are commonly used in the construction of steel structures because of their ease of implementation, rigidity, low lateral displacement, and cost-effectiveness. However, the principal disadvantage of this kind of braced frame is the inability to provide deformation capacity (ductility) and buckling of bracing elements before yielding. This paper aims to present a novel Composite Buckling Restrained Fuse (CBRF) to be utilized as a bracing segment in concentrically braced frames that allows higher ductility and removes premature buckling. The proposed CBRF with relatively small dimensions is an enhancement on the Reduced Length Buckling Restrained Braces (RL-BRBs), consists of steel core and additional tensile elements embedded in a concrete encasement. Employing tensile elements in this composite fuse with a new configuration enhances the energy dissipation efficiency and removes the tensile strength limitations that exist in bracing elements that contain RL-BRBs. Here, the optimal length of the CBRF is computed by considering the anticipated strain demand and the low-cyclic fatigue life of the core under standard loading protocol. An experimental program is conducted to explore the seismic behavior of the suggested CBRF compare with an RL-BRB specimen under gradually increased cyclic loading. Moreover, Hysteretic responses of the specimens are evaluated to calculate the design parameters such as energy dissipation potential, strength adjustment factors, and equivalent viscous damping. The findings show that the suggested fuse possess a ductile behavior with high energy absorption and sufficient resistance and a reasonably stable hysteresis response under compression and tension.

The objective of this study is to propose the FE model for mechanical clinched joint using cohesive zone model to analyze its failure behavior under impact loading. Cohesive zone model (CZM) is two-parameter failure criteria approach, which could describe the failure behavior of joint using critical stress and fracture toughness. In this study, the relationship between failure behavior of mechanical clinched joint and fracture parameters is investigated by FE analysis with CZM. Using this relationship, the critical stress and fracture toughness for tensile and shear mode are determined by H-type tensile test and lap shear test, which were made of 5052 aluminum alloy. The fracture parameters were applied to the tophat impact test to evaluate the crashworthiness. Compared penetration depth and energy absorption at the point where 50% of total displacement in result of FE analysis and experiment test for impact test, those has shown similar crashworthiness.

As an alternative method to solve air pollution problem and difficulty of pulp bleaching of kraft pulping process, NaOH-Urea pulping was applied. The properties of NaOH-Urea pulp were compared to those of NaOH and kraft pulps. Addition of urea in low alkali charges retarded delignification rate compared to NaOH pulping. But, in high alkali application, delignification was significantly enhanced not from the addition of urea but from the high alkalinity. It was disclosed that urea did not participate on delignification reaction by the experiment using lignin model compound. Compared to paper strengths at the same level of sheet density, NaOH-Urea pulp gave as almost same breaking length and tensile index as those of kraft pulp. Especially tensile energy absorption and burst index were higher than those of kraft pulp.

본 논문에서는 습식스프레이 공법에 의하여 타설되는 고인성 섬유보강 모르타르(ECC)을 구조물의 보수에 적용함으로써 구조물의 내구성을 증진시키는 효과에 대하여 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 굳지않은 상태에서는 스프레이 공정에 적합한 유동특성을 갖고 있으면서, 굳은 후에는 인장변형경화거동을 나타내는 ECC를 스프레이 공법으로 타설하여 시험체를 제작하여 실험하였다. 실험 결과, 스프레이된 ECC의 역학적 특성(인장 및 휨거동)이 일반적인 타설법에 의하여 제작된 ECC와 거의 일치하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이 때에 ECC의 균열폭은 평균 30${\mu}m$로 제어되었다. 구콘크리트/ECC 합성보의 에너지 흡수능력은 구콘크리트/상용 스프레이 모르타르(PM) 합성보에 비하여 매우 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 경계면의 부착성능도 양호한 것으로 평가되었다. ECC 고유의 균열제어능력과 더불어 보수된 부재(구콘크리트/ECC 합성보)의 탁월한 휨변형능력, 에너지 흡수능력 등은 구조물의 내구성을 증진하는데 큰 이점으로 작용하게 될 것이다.

This paper presents a study on the crashworthiness of the scaled-down stiffened panels used on a Korean icebreaker. In order to validate the crashworthiness of the panels, this paper provides various mechanical properties such as the results of a CVN test, quasi-static tensile test, and high-speed tensile test at arctic temperatures. Two types of steels (EH32 and FH32) were chosen for the material tests. CVN tests revealed that the two steels were equivalent up to −60℃ in terms of their impact energy absorption capacity. However, the toughness of FH32 was significantly superior to that of EH32. EH32 showed slightly higher flow stresses at all temperature levels compared to FH32. The improvement ratios of the yield strengths, tensile strengths, plastic hardening exponents, etc. for FH32, which were obtained from quasi-static tensile tests, showed an apparent ascending tendency with a decrease in temperature. Dynamic tensile test results were obtained for the two temperatures levels of 20℃ and −60℃ with two plastic strain rate levels of 1 s⁻¹ and 100 s⁻¹. A closed form empirical formula proposed by Choung et al. (2011;2013) was shown to be effective at predicting the flow stress increase due to a strain rate increase.

취성을 가진 섬유강화플라스틱은 충격을 받을 때 충격에너지를 흡수하면서 섬유와 기지재 간 계면에서 탈착 및 박리가 일어난다. 이는 복합재료의 에너지 충격흡수정도의 지표로 삼을 수 있다. 복합재료의 취성을 해결하기 위해 pine과 복합재료의 접착에 대한 연구가 되어 지고 있다. 이번 연구에서는 열처리 된 pine이 탄소섬유강화복합재료와 에폭시 접착제를 이용하여 접착되었다. 최적의 열처리 조건을 확인하기 위해, pine을 160도 및 200도 조건하에 열처리를 하였다. Pine 및 pine/탄소섬유복합재료의 기계적 및 계면물성을 파악하기 위해 인장, 인장중첩전단 및 아이조드 실험을 하였다. 또한, 열처리에 따른 나뭇결간의 결합력을 확인하기 위해 나뭇결 수직방향으로 인장시편 제조 후 파단될 때 탄성파를 음향방출시스템을 이용하여 분석하였다. 160도 조건으로 열처리 했을 때 나무강화 효과로 기계, 계면 및 나뭇결간의 결합력이 좋은 것을 확인하였다. 그러나 과한 열을 주게 되면 열에 약한 헤미셀룰로오스가 분해되면서 잡아주는 인자가 줄어들어 물성이 감소하였다.

최근 차량 경량화를 통한 에너지 절감을 위해서 무거운 철강재료를 경금속이나 복합재료로 대체하는 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 이중, 폴리머 기반의 복합재료는 사출성형을 통해서 복잡한 형상의 제작이 가능하고, 유리섬유나 탄소섬유를 함께 사용하여 철강재료 수준으로 기계적 물성을 높일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 하지만 엔진의 고온과 우기에서의 높은 습도 환경은 폴리머의 기계적 물성을 낮추기 때문에 재료선택 과정에서 반드시 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 사출성형을 통해 만들어진 유리섬유강화플라스틱을 엔진룸 내부 온도와 유사한 $85^{\circ}C$ 환경과 우기시의 최대 수분흡수 환경하에서의 기계적 물성변화를 인장시험을 통해 알아보았다. 그 결과, 고온환경에서 최대인장강도가 약 23% 감소를 보였고, 수분에 의해서는 약 30% 감소하였으며, 고온과 수분 모두에 대해서는 약 70% 감소를 확인하였으며 이는 재료 선정시 반드시 고려해야 할 영향으로 판단되었다.

일반적으로 유기섬유는 섬유 자체의 인장강도 및 탄성계수는 작지만, 내화성 및 내부식성이 우수하고, 콘크리트의 균열 제어 및 내충격 성능 향상에 효과적인 섬유이다. 따라서, 유기섬유는 콘크리트용 보강 섬유로서의 적용성이 매우 높은 재료이다. 본 연구에서는 폴리아미드(PA)섬유와 고강력의 폴리에스터(PET)섬유를 혼입한 하이브리드 유기섬유를 개발하였으며, 하이브리드 유기섬유를 혼입한 섬유보강 콘크리트의 휨성능 시험을 통해 하이브리드 유기섬유 보강 콘크리트의 에너지 흡수능력을 평가하고자 한다.

The Turkish Earthquake Code was revised in 1998 and 2007. Before these Codes, especially 1998, reinforced concrete (RC) beams with low flexural and shear strength were widely used in the building. In this study, the RC specimens have been produced by taking into consideration the RC beams with insufficient shear and tensile reinforcement having been manufactured with the use of concrete with low strength. The performance of the RC specimens strengthened with different wrapping methods by using of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composites have been examined in terms of flexural strength, ductility and energy absorption capacity. In the strengthening of the RC elements, the use of GFRP composites instead of CFRP composites has also been examined. For this purpose, the experimental results of the RC specimens strengthened by wrapping with CFRP and GFRP are presented and discussed. It has been concluded that although the flexural and shear strengths of the RC beams strengthened with GFRP composites are lower than those of beams reinforced with CFRP, their ductility and energy absorption capacities are very high. Moreover, the RC beams strengthened with CFRP fracture are more brittle when compared to GFRP.

The main objective of the current research is estimating the flexural behavior of ferrocement Ribbed Plates reinforced with composite material. Experimental investigation was carried out on fifteen plates; their dimensions were kept constant at 1200 mm in length, 600 mm width and 100 mm thick but with different volume fraction of steel reinforcement and number of ribs. Test specimens were tested until failure under three line loadings with simply supported conditions over a span of 1100 mm. Cracking patterns, tensile and compressive strains, deformation characteristics, ductility ratio, and energy absorption properties were observed and measured at all stages of loadings. Experimental results were compared to analytical models using ANSYS 10 program. Parametric study is presented to look at the variables that can mainly affect the mechanical behaviors of the model such as the change of plate length. The results showed that the ultimate strength, ductility ratio and energy absorption properties of the proposed ribbed plates are affected by the volume fraction and the type of reinforcement, and also proved the effectiveness of expanded metal mesh and woven steel mesh in reinforcing the ribbed ferrocement plates. In addition, the developed ribbed ferrocement plates have high strength, ductility ratio and energy absorption properties and are lighter in weight compared to the conventional RC ribbed plates, which could be useful for developed and developing countries alike. The Finite Element (FE) simulations gave good results comparing with the experimental results.
