The paper presents a comparison between a semi-implicit time integration linear finite element implementation and fully-implicit nonlinear Newton-Raphson finite element implementation of a triphasic small strain mixture formulation of an elastic partially saturated porous medium. The pore air phase pressure pa is assumed atmospheric, i.e., $p_a$ = 0, although the formulation and implementation are general to handle increase in pore air pressure as a result of loading, if needed. The solid skeleton phase is assumed linear isotropic elastic and partially saturated 'consolidation' in the presence of surface infiltration and traction is simulated. The verification of the implementation against an analytical solution for partially saturated pore water flow (no deformation) and comparison between the two implementations is presented and the important of the porosity-dependent nature of the partially saturated permeability is assessed on comparison with a commercial code for the partially saturated flow with deformation. As a result, the response of partially saturated permeability subjected to the porosity influences on the saturation of a soil, and the different behaviors of the partially saturated soil between staggered and monolithic coupled programs is worth of attention because the negative pore water pressure in the partially saturated soil depends on the difference.

Stress waves monitored on the surface of structures under various loading conditions can provide useful information on the structural health status. In this paper, stress waves are measured by several sensors when a steel beam is impacted by a ball drop. The sensors used include the piezo-electric film Sensor, the electrical strain gage, and the ultrasonic transducer, and special attention is given to the pieza film sensor. The wavelet transform is used for the time-frequency analysis of dispersive waves propagating in the beam. The velocities of the wave produced in the team due to the lateral impact is found to be frequency-dependent and identified as the flexural wave velocity based on the comparisons with the Timoshenko beam theory. A linear impact site identification method is developed using the flexural wave, and the impact sites of the beam can be accurately estimated by the piezo film sensors. It is found that the piezo film sensor is appropriate for sensing stress waves due to impact and for locating impact sites in the beam.

The corrosion of reinforcement leads to a gradual decay of structural strength and durability. Several models for crack occurrence prediction and crack width propagation are investigated in this paper. Analytical and experimental models were used to predict the bond strength in the period of corrosion propagation. The manner of flexural strength loss is calculated by application of these models for different scenarios. As a new approach, the variation of the concrete beam neutral axis height has been evaluated, which shows a reduction in the neutral axis height for the scenarios without loss of bond. Alternatively, an increase of the neutral axis height was observed for the scenarios including bond and concrete section loss. The statistical properties of the parameters influencing the strength have been deliberated associated with obtaining the time-dependent bending strength during corrosion propagation, using Monte Carlo (MC) random sampling method. Results showed that the ultimate strain in concrete decreases significantly as a consequence of the bond strength reduction during the corrosion process, when the section reaches to its final limit. Therefore, such sections are likely to show brittle behavior.

Ultraviolet C (UV-C, 200-280 nm) light has germicidal properties that inactivate a wide range of pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms. UV-C has been extensively studied as an alternative to thermal decontamination of fruit juices. Recent studies suggest that the efficacy of UV-C irradiation in reducing microorganisms in fruit juices is greatly dependent on the characteristics of the target microorganisms, juice matrices, and parameters of the UV-C treatment procedure, such as equipment and processing. Based on evidence from recent studies, this review describes how the characteristics of target microorganisms (e.g., type of microorganism/strain, acid adaptation, physiological states, single/composite inoculum, spore, etc.) and fruit juice matrices (e.g., UV absorbance, UV transmittance, turbidity, soluble solid content, pH, color, etc.) affect the efficacy of UV-C. We also discuss the influences on UV-C treatment efficacy of parameters, including UV-C light source, reactor conditions (e.g., continuous/batch, size, thickness, volume, diameter, outer case, configuration/arrangement), pumping/flow system conditions (e.g., sample flow rate and pattern, sample residence time, number of cycles), homogenization conditions (e.g., continuous flow/recirculation, stirring, mixing), and cleaning capability of the reactor. The collective facts indicate the immense potential of UV-C irradiation in the fruit juice industry. Existing drawbacks need to be addressed in future studies before the technique is applicable at the industrial scale.

A deformation behavior of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) is highly dependent on material and processing parameters, such as deformation temperature, deformation direction, and strain rate. This study aims to predict the multivariable and nonlinear tensile behavior of CP-Ti using machine learning based on three algorithms: artificial neural network (ANN), light gradient boosting machine (LGBM), and long short-term memory (LSTM). The predictivity for tensile behaviors at the cryogenic temperature was lower than those in the room temperature due to the larger data scattering in the train dataset used in the machine learning. Although LGBM showed the lowest value of root mean squared error, it was not the best strategy owing to the overfitting and step-function morphology different from the actual data. LSTM performed the best as it effectively learned the continuous characteristics of a flow curve as well as it spent the reduced time for machine learning, even without sufficient database and hyperparameter tuning.

본 연구에서는 기 개발된 비탄성 시간종속요소(이도형과 전정문, 2006)와 단순화된 CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) 재료모델을 개발하여 CFRP로 보수된 철근콘크리트 교량 교각에 대한 보수효과가 교량의 응답거동에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 정적시간이력해석의 경우, CFRP로 보수된 교각에 대한 해석결과는 실험결과와 비교적 좋은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 또한, 동적시간이력해석의 경우, 전단을 고려한 경우와 고려하지 않은 경우를 비교하여 보수효과에 대한 전단의 영향을 검토하였다. 비교해석결과, 보수의 효과는 부재에 대한 특성증진효과와 함께 구조물 전체의 응답거동에 영향을 끼칠 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었고, 전단을 포함한 경우와 전단을 포함하지 않은 경우 강도와 강성, 변위응답에서의 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 개발된 해석모델 및 기법은 손상된 부재 및 구조물의 보수 후에 요구되어지는 강도, 강성 및 연성능력에 관한 평가를 가능하게 해줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

대부분 동적 성능 평가는 반복 가력 실험을 수행함으로써 구조물의 동적 응답을 평가할 수 있다. 일반적으로 강재는 재하속도 의존성 재료로 알려져 있으며 기둥 부재의 횡방향인 수평방향 가력 시 기둥 부재의 축력인 수직하중이 작용하면 부재의 응답에 영향을 미친다. 하지만, 강재 기둥 구조물의 실험 시 수평 및 수직하중을 동시에 제어하는 것이 어려워 관련 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 기둥 부재를 ATS Compensator와 FLB 시스템을 이용하여 수평 및 수직하중을 고속으로 제어하였다. 실험은 H-형 구조용 압연강재인 SS275을 이용하여 수직 하중을 제어하면서 여러 속도로 단조 및 반복 가력 실험을 수행하고 부재의 항복 하중을 비교하였다. 또한, 유한요소해석 시 재하속도에 따라 새로운 항복 응력을 제안하고 수치해석을 통해 비교하였다.

콘크리트 구조물의 크리프해석은 주로 크리프식의 중첩원리에 기초한 방법에 의해 수행되고 있다. 그러나 크리프식의 중첩을 응력이 증가하거나 일정할 경우에는 비교적 정확한 예측이 가능하지만, 응력이 감소하는 경우에는 상당한 오차를 나타낸다. 이것은 지속하중과 응력감소 과정에서 크리프와 관련된 콘크리트의 성질이 변화되므로 크리프 회복을 크리프 식의 중첩으로 정확하게 모사할수 없기 때문이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 감소와 증가를 반복하는 응력 이력을 지니는 콘크리트 구조물의 좀더 정확하고 합리적인 장기거동 해석을 위하여 응력의 감소를 단순히 크리프식의 중첩에 의해 해석한 기존의 방법과는 달리 크리프식과 크리프 회복식으로 표현하여, 소위 2함수 방법(two-function method)를 콘크리트구조물의 해석에 적용하는 방법을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 2함수방법을 콘크리트 구조물의 장기거동 해석을 적용하기 위해, 시간단계 동안 다양한 응력 변화에 대하여 크리프 변형도 증분량을 계산하는 방법을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 해석방법에 의해서 해석된 결과를 기존의 크리프식의 중첩에 의한 결과 및 기존의 실험결과들과 비교 분석한 결과, 기존의 중첩법은 실험결과와 많은 차이를 보이고 있으나 본 연구의 해석방법은 실험결과와 잘 맞고 있음을 보여주고 있다. 따라서, 크리프회복식을 이용하는 본 연구의 해석방법은 기존의 크리프식의 중첩방법이나 기존의 설계기준에 비해 변화하는 응력이력 하에서의 콘크리트 구조물의 크리프거동을 더 정확하게 서술할 수 있는 방법으로서 앞으로 설계기준 작성과 실제 구조물 해석에 효율적인 응용이 기대되고 있다.

A psychrotrophic bacterial strain, Pseudomonas fluorescens BM07, synthesized unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) from fructose in response to lowering of growth temperature, and incorporated them into both polyhydroxyalkanoic acid (PHA) and membrane lipid. The blocking of PHA synthesis by adding 5 mM 2-bromooctanoic acid to the growth medium, containing 70 mM fructose, was found to be a useful means to profile the composition of membrane lipid by gas chromatography. As the growth temperature changed from 35 to $50^{\circ}C$, the total content of two UFA, 3-hydroxy-cis-5­dodecenoic acid ($C_{12:1}$) and 3-hydroxy-cis-7-tetradecenoic acid ($C_{14:1}$), in PHA increased from 31 to 44 $mol\%$. The growth at lower temperatures also led to an increase in the level of two major UFA, palmitoleic acid (C16:1 cis9) and cis-vaccenic acid (C18:1 cis11), in membrane lipid. A fraction of these membrane-lipid UFA was converted to their corresponding cyclopropane fatty acids (CFA). The CFA conversion was a function of culture time, exhibiting biphasic increase before and after entering the stationary phase. However, pH changes in growth media had no effect on the CFA conversion, which is contrary to the case of E. coli reported. The cells grown at $30^{\circ}C$ responded to a cold shock (lowering the medium temperature down to $10^{\circ}C$) by increasing the level of C16:1 cis9 and C 18: I cis II up to that of $10^{\circ}C$-grown control cells and concomitantly decreasing the relative level of cis-9,10­methylenehexadecanoic acid (the CFA converted from C16:1 cis9) from 14 to 8 $mol\%$, whereas the 10-grown cells exhibited little change in the lipid composition when exposed to a warmer environment of $30^{\circ}C$ for 12 h. Based on this one- way response, we suggest that this psychrotrophic strain responds more efficiently and sensitively to a cold shock than to a hot shock. It is also suggested that BM07 strain is a good producer of two unsaturated 3-hydroxyacids, $C_{12:1}\;and\;C_{141:1}$.

We study seismically induced, anti-plane strain wave motion in a non-homogeneous geological region containing tunnels. Two different scenarios are considered: (a) The first models two tunnels in a finite geological region embedded within a laterally inhomogeneous, layered geological profile containing a seismic source. For this case, labelled as the first boundary-value problem (BVP 1), an efficient hybrid technique comprising the finite difference method (FDM) and the boundary element method (BEM) is developed and applied. Since the later method is based on the frequency-dependent fundamental solution of elastodynamics, the hybrid technique is defined in the frequency domain. Then, an inverse fast Fourier transformation (FFT) is used to recover time histories; (b) The second models a finite region with two tunnels, is embedded in a homogeneous half-plane, and is subjected to incident, time-harmonic SH-waves. This case, labelled as the second boundary-value problem (BVP 2), considers complex soil properties such as anisotropy, continuous inhomogeneity and poroelasticity. The computational approach is now the BEM alone, since solution of the surrounding half plane by the FDM is unnecessary. In sum, the hybrid FDM-BEM technique is able to quantify dependence of the signals that develop at the free surface to the following key parameters: seismic source properties and heterogeneous structure of the wave path (the FDM component) and near-surface geological deposits containing discontinuities in the form of tunnels (the BEM component). Finally, the hybrid technique is used for evaluating the seismic wave field that develops within a key geological cross-section of the Metro construction project in Thessaloniki, Greece, which includes the important Roman-era historical monument of Rotunda dating from the 3rd century A.D.
