본 논문에서는 확률적 불확실성을 포함한 손상 장에서 강성저감 효과를 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 실제 교량 구조물에 분포된 손상 장은 매우 불확실하며 손상의 위치와 형상 또한 정확히 알 수 없는 경우가 많다. 그러나 대부분의 손상 추정 문제는 균열이나 손상의 위치와 형상을 기지의 주어진 정보로 가정하고 손상을 추정한다. 제안 기법에서는 이러한 손상의 위치와 형태가 본질적으로 불확실하다는 가정 하에 이 불확실성을 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수를 도입하여 기술한다. 교량에 국부적으로 발생된 손상은 교량의 요소강성의 저감 분포로 변환되어 손상이 발생한 전체 시스템의 강성을 표현하고 이를 통해 손상이 발생한 시스템의 전체 응답을 해석할 수 있게 된다. 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수는 손상 분포의 개략적 중심을 표현하는 평균 변수와 강성 저감의 비국소적 분포 특성을 묘사하는 표준편차 변수, 손상 중심의 손상 정도를 표현하는 강성저감 변수로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 손상 장에서 손상의 위치나 형태에 대한 확률적 불확실성을 기술하는 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수를 포함한 유한요소모델을 정식화하여 제시한다. 또한 단일 또는 복합 균열로 인해 교량 구조물에 국부적인 손상이 야기된 경우에 대한 수치 예제를 통하여 균열 등에 대한 정보가 불확실하더라도 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수를 통해 강성 저감 효과가 분석될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

강성체로된 견인물체가 탄성무한경면으로 지지된 점탄성층 위를 미끄러져 갈 때 접촉구간에서의 압력분포와 마찰 특성을 고찰하였다. 즉, 접촉구간에서의 강성체의 모양과 압력분포에 관한 적분 방정식을 구하고, 점탄성층의 두께가 접촉구간에 비하여 충분히 두꺼울 때 압력분포와 마찰계 수의 근사해를 구하였다. 압력분포의 모양은 점탄성층의 물성을 표시하는 지수값, 즉 .alpha.<1/2, .alpha.=1/2, .alpha.>1/2에 따라서 크게 다르다. 한편, 수치해석에 의하면 마찰 계수에 대한 근 사해는 강성체의 미끄럼 속도, 점탄성 층의 두께, 탄성체의 영율 (E$_{o}$ )과 점탄성층의 시효 성탄성계수 (E$_{v}$ )의 차, 즉 E$_{o}$ /E$_{v}$ 에 따라 변화함을 알 수 있다. 즉, 탄성체가 점탄성층에 비하여 딱딱하면 할수록, 또 강성체 속도가 느리면 느릴수록 마찰계수는 작아진다. 그리고 불성의 지수(.alpha.)가 커지면 커질수록 근사해의 수렵 속도는 느려지게 되고 지 수(.alpha.)가 1에 가까워지면 점탄성층의 탄성효과는 점성효과에 비하여 거의 무시할 수 있으며 근사해는 의미가 없어지게 된다.

The void distribution in concrete materials strongly affects its material properties. Therefore, the identification of spatial distribution of void is important to understand and estimate material behavior. To examine and quantify the void distribution inside lightweight aggregates, CT(computed tomography) image is used. 3D lightweight aggregate images are generated by stacking of cross-sectional images from CT. Spatial distribution of void of aggregate along the direction is visualized on the sphere using probability distribution function. Stiffness of lightweight aggregate for the directions is also examined. It is confirmed that direction-based probability distribution and stiffness from CT images are effective in characterizing void distributions of aggregates.

In order to evaluate the limit earthquake resistance of multi-story steel frames influenced by the strength and stiffness ratios of members, a series inelastic response analysis were carried out. From the analysis results, the damage distribution rules of multi-story steel frames were proposed. Conclusions are summarized as follows; 1)As the stiffness ratios of beam and column becomes small, the damage concentrates on the lower end of columns of the first story. 2) Considering the strength and stiffness ratios of the beam and column with weak beam type mechanism, the equations predicting the damage distribution of multi-story steel flames were proposed. 3) Through the equation which was supposed in this study, it is speculated that the damage distribution of the rigid or semirigid beam collapse type multi-story steel structure building can be predicted.

Model tests on propped retaining walls were performed for the investigation of wall displacement, distribution of earth pressure, surface settlement and underground movement at various excavation stage in sand. The result of model tests on the trough of surface settlement showed considerable difference depending on the characteristic of wall stiffness, wall friction and soil condition. The location of maximum underground movement were found to be at range of 0.15H to 0. 1H(H: Final excavation depth). Effect of arching by the redistribution of earth pressure were closely related to the stiffness of wall as well as the soil condition. The wall displacement and earth pressure distribution were simulated by elasto - plastic beam analysis program and finite element method with GDHM model respectively. The result of elasto-plastic analysis showed some discrepancy on the wall displacement and earth pressure, but result of underground movement by FEM with various wall stiffness were in good agreement with the model tests.

The active earth pressure against a rigid retaining wall has been generally calculated using either Rankine's or Coulomb's formulation. Both assume that the distribution of active earth pressure exerted against the wall is triangular. However, many experimental results show that the distribution of the active earth pressure on a rigid rough wall is nonlinear. These results do not agree with the assumption used in both Rankine's and Coulomb's theories. The nonlinearity of the active earth pressure distribution results from arching effects in the backfill. Several researchers have attempted to estimate the active earth pressure on a rigid retaining wall, considering arching effect in the backfill. Their equations, however, have some limitations. In this paper, a new formulation for calculating the active earth pressure on a rough rigid retaining wall undergoing horizontal translation is proposed. It takes into account the arching effects that occur in the backfill.

Single-layer latticed domes with rigid-joint have an advantage in the construction cost and the aesthetic. But, in single-layer latticed domes, the joints are hard to discriminate between pin-joint and rigid-joint, and consisted of semi-rigid joint in practical. And the erection of large roof structures requires special techniques. As one of these special techniques is the Step-Up erection method. This paper verified buckling characteristics of single-Layer lamella domes according to the Joint flexibility under construction by Step-up method. The results are follows: As erection steps increase, the buckling strength decreases. It is occurred the joint buckling by snap through on the top of dome when the joint flexibility close the rigid. And large tensile stress distribution appeared in circumferential member of bottom boundary when the step of construction is low. As the step of construction increase, large compressive stress distribution showed in the top of dome.

The records of field instrumentation, which have been performed on the pneumatic caisson used for substructure of the Youngjong Grand Bridge, were analyzed to investigate the ground contact pressure under rigid foundation of large pneumatic caisson embedded in various ground layers. During sinking the pneumatic caisson, the resisting force was mobilized against sinking the caisson at the contact area between bottom of the caisson and the ground. The resisting force could be measured by the reaction force gauges instrumented under the edge of bottom of the pneumatic caisson. And the ground contact pressure could be estimated by use of the measuring records of the resisting force. The ground contact pressure under rigid foundation of large pneumatic caisson shows concave distribution on bedrock, while convex distribution was shown in marine deposit soil layer as well as weathered rock layer. And, the ground contact pressure in various ground layers was distributed axis-symmetrically. The distribution shape of the ground contact pressure determined by the maximum pressure acting on foundation of the large pneumatic caisson showed good coincidence with the distribution shape proposed for rigid foundation by Kgler(1936) and Fang(1991).

휨강성이 작은 바닥시스템인 플랫 플레이트 구조는 응력조건 뿐만 아니라 사용성조건에 의하여 구조적 성능이 결정될 수 있으며, 특히 과도한 시공 하중의 작용은 시공 중 안전성에 대한 단기적인 손상 뿐만 아니라 사용성에 관련된 장기적인 손상을 발생시킬 수 있다. 이러한 플랫 플레이트의 시공하중은 동바리지지 층 수, 시공주기, 슬래브 콘크리트의 재료적인 강성 뿐만 아니라, 동바리의 강성과 슬래브에 발생하는 균열에 의한 영향에 의하여 결정된다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 설계조건에 대한 해석연구를 통하여, 동바리-슬래브의 강성비 변화 및 콘크리트 균열에 의한 단면강성저하가 슬래브들 간의 하중 분포에 미치는 영향을 분석하고, 이러한 동바리 강성 및 슬래브 균열의 영향을 고려한 시공하중 산정법을 제안한다.

It is known that the distribution of the active earth pressure against a rigid wall is not triangular, but nonlinear, due to arching effects in the backfill. In the farmer paper, a new formulation was proposed for the nonlinear distribution of active earth pressure on a translating rigid retaining wall considering arching effects. In this paper, parametric study is performed to investigate the effect of ${\phi}, {\delta}$ and wall height on the magnitude and distribution of active earth pressure calculated from the proposed equations. In order to check the accuracy of the proposed formulation, the predictions from the equation are compared with both existing full-scale test results and values from existing equations. The comparisons between calculated and measured values show that the proposed equations satisfactorily predict both the earth pressure distribution and the lateral active earth force on the translating wall. Simplified design charts are also proposed for the modified active earth pressure coefficient and fur the height of application of the lateral active force in order to facilitate the use of the proposed equation.
