현재 구조물의 피로설계에는 주로 공칭응력(Nominal Stress) 및 핫스팟 응력(Hot Spot Stress, HSS)이 사용되고 있다. 공칭응력을 바탕으로 구조물에 대한 피로설계를 할 경우에는 각 부재에 사용되는 각각의 용접부 형상에 대한 피로시험을 따로 수행하여 피로수명 곡선을 구해야 하는 번거로움이 있다. (중략)

In this work, effects of hyper-elastic rubber material properties on the indentation load-deflection curve and subindenter deformation are first examined via finite element (FE) analyses. An optimal data acquisition spot is selected, which features maximum strain energy density and negligible frictional effect. We then contrive two normalized functions, which map an indentation load vs. deflection curve into a strain energy density vs. first invariant curve. From the strain energy density vs. first invariant curve, we can extract the rubber material properties. This new spherical indentation approach produces the rubber material properties in a manner more effective than the common uniaxial tensile/compression tests. The indentation approach successfully measures the rubber material properties and the corresponding nominal stress-strain curve.

In order to develop stretchable substrates for wearable packaging applications, the variation behavior of elastic modulus was evaluated for transparent PDMS Sylgard 184 and black PDMS Sylgard 170 as a function of the base/curing agent mixing ratio. Both for Sylgard 184 and Sylgard 170, the true elastic modulus evaluated on a true stress-true strain curve was higher more than two times compared to the engineering elastic modulus obtained from an engineering stres-sengineering strain curve, and their difference became larger with increasing the stiffness of the PDMS. Sylgard 184 exhibited a maximum engineering elastic modulus of 1.74 MPa and a maximum true elastic modulus of 3.57 MPa at the base/curing agent mixing ratio of 10. A maximum engineering elastic modulus of 1.51 MPa and a maximum true elastic modulus of 3.64 MPa were obtained for Sylgard 170 at the base/curing agent mixing ratio of 2.

In this study, we enhance the numerical approach of Lee et al.$^{(1)}$ to spherical indentation technique for property evaluation of hyper-elastic rubber. We first determine the friction coefficient between rubber and indenter in a practical viewpoint. We perform finite element numerical simulations for deeper indentation depth. An optimal data acquisition spot is selected, which features sufficiently large strain energy density and negligible frictional effect. We then improve two normalized functions mapping an indentation load vs. deflection curve into a strain energy density vs. first invariant curve, the latter of which in turn gives the Yeoh-model constants. The enhanced spherical indentation approach produces the rubber material properties with an average error of less than 3%.

In this study, full-rounded tip curve of rack and its mating fillet curve of pinion in Involute-circular arc composite tooth profile are derived. Mechanical characteristics are calculated analytically, i.e., Specific sliding, Nominal bending stress at working root circle and the Contact factor of the arc of contact in circular arc part to the arc of double contact. These characteristics compared with standard involute tooth profile are improved in circular arc part of composite tooth profile. To obtain more efficient composite tooth profile, we studied these characteristics with regard to the changes of unwound angle and radius of circualr arc. And a design method of composite tooth profile is suggested. Composite tooth profile are compared with standard involute tooth profile.

This paper presents an analytical modeling technique fer representing a hysteretic behavior of a multi-leaf spring used for a large truck. It divides a nonlinear hysteretic curve of the multi-leaf spring into four parts; loading part, unloading part and two transition parts. It provides conditions fur branching to a part of the curve corresponding to a current multi-leaf spring status. This paper also presents a computational modeling technique of the multi-leaf spring. It models the multi-leaf spring with three links and a shackle. It assumes those components as rigid bodies. The links are connected by rotational joints, and have rotational springs at the joints. The spring constants of the rotational springs are computed with a force from the analytical model of the hysteretic curve of the multi-leaf spring. Static and dynamic tests are performed to verify the reliability of the presented techniques. The tests are performed with various amplitudes and excitation frequencies. The hysteretic curves from the tests are compared with those from the simulations. Since th e presented techniques reproduce the hysteretic characteristic of the multi -leaf spring faithfully, they contribute on improving the reliability of the computational model of a large truck.

재료의 피로문제에 대해서는 꽤 오래 전부터 많은 연구가 이루어져왔고, 피로의 현상파악에서부 터 피로이론의 구명, 나아가서는 실제문제로서의 피로설계, 피로수명예측 등에 기여한 업적은 아 주 크다 하겠다. 그러나 종래의 피로문제연구의 방향이, S-N 곡선에서 얻어지는 피로한계강도 (더 정확한 표현으론 피로파괴한계강동)에 바탕을 두고, 정력확적인 설계관례인 안전계수의 도입 을 빌려, 피로강도를 실용화할려는 선에서 이루어져 왔다고 보겠다. 재료의 피로한계강도란, 그 정의로 미루어, 다분히 정적으로는 극한강도 또는 피로강도의 개념에 견주어 질 수 있는 공칭응 력으로써 탄성학적으로 해석될 수도 없고, 다만 탄역성이론의 개념을 바탕으로 근사해석례만이 허용되고 있을 뿐이다. 재료에는 소위 평활재이건 절결재이건 간에 또 검출여부에 관계없이, 내외 부에 대소각종의 결함이나 역학적 불연속부가 잠재해있음은 이미 공지의 사실이며, 이들 결합, 불 연속부등이 외하중하에서 응분의 응력집중원이 되어 재료를 전반적인 파괴로 몰고 갈 수 있다 함 도, 또한 이러한 역학적거동이 피로파괴에 까지 확장해석될 수 있을 것이란 것도 이미 잘 알려져 있는 터이라 하겠다. 재료내외부의 제결합을 응력집중이 극대인 crack로 대체해서 외하중하에서 의 응력장거동을 해석한 선형탄성파괴역학(LEFM)은, 바로 이러한 실제재료의 강도설계에 보다 큰 정확성을 부여한 방법론적 학문이라 하겠고, 나아가서는 재료의 파괴기구를 파헤치는데 진일 보적인 역학적인 수법이라 하겠다. 취성파괴, 연성파괴에 바탕을 둔 파괴역학(LEFM)을 피로파괴 에 적용시키는 데는 상당한 문제점들을 수반할 것임은 충분히 인지되나, 제한된 경계조건하에서 의 적용 예는 종래의 어떤 방법에 의한 것 보다도 피로강도설계, 안전사용 피로수명예측 등에 획기적인 진전을 보여주고 있다. 파괴역학은 crack 재의 강도학이고, 더 구체적으로 음력학대계수 (stress intensity factor) K 또는 이와 연연되는 parameter 인 strain energy release rate(G), crack-tip plactic zone size r$_{p}$,.rho., crack-tip opening displacement .phi., strain intensity 등을 쓰는 재료강도학이기 때문에, 이 수법을 피로파괴에 적용시킴은, 종래의 공칭응력으로 피로 문제를 다루던 방법과는 판이하다 하겠다. 본고에선 파괴역학의 관점에서 피로구열의 안정성장을 논하고, 과거 10여년간의 피로 crack문제에 대한 연구방법, 실험방법 등을 소개하는 방향으로 고 를 진행시켜 나가겠다.

In this study, flexural strength and ductility requirements of composite hybrid steel I-girder with its HSB(high performance steel for bridge) applied to tension flanges are examined in positive bending. In AASHTO LRFD specification, flexural strength and ductility requirements of composite I-girder in positive bending are specified in terms of plastic moment and plastic neutral axis that are derived from plastic behavior of conventional steel. However, plastic zone cannot be defined clearly from the stress-strain behavior of HSB unlike the behavior of conventional steel. Therefore, through idealized stress-strain curves of HSB, the plastic moment of composite hybrid steel I-girder with its HSB applied to tension flanges is defined by assuming the plastic zone of HSB. By using the consequences of numerical analysis regarding arbitrary cross-sections that have various dimensions, ductility requirements and flexural strength of composite hybrid I-girder with its HSB applied to tension flange are proposed.

The objective of the present study is to provide statistical resistance statistics for steel-concrete composite plate girder sections under positive and negative moments. Statistical properties on yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, and fracture toughness of domestic structural steel products, gathered from an analysis of over 16,000 samples, were evaluated. Using the steel samples for the plate girder, the bias factor and the coefficient of variation of the ultimate flexural resistance for representative composite plate girder sections under positive and negative flexures were presented. In calculating the ultimate flexural resistance of the composite section, the moment curvature relationships were developed using the incremental load approach considering material nonlinearity for the steel girder. The predicted statistics can be used in the future for the efficient calibration of LRFD code.

A parametric study for varying the radii of curvature is performed with a curved tub girder bridge having three continuous spans. The bracing forces of top lateral bracings from the results of numerical equations are compared to those of 3-dimensional finite element analyses. New modifying factors applicable in computing the nominal member forces of top lateral bracings were suggested. The numerical equations were derived based on one girder system, and it is shown that the numerical equations exhibit some errors compared with 3D FEA results. The main reason for this phenomenon lies on the number of girders. The twin girder system has an external cross-beam between inner and outer girder. It also has larger lateral stiffness than the single girder system. Finally, the distributions by the torsion, bending, distortion, and lateral loading of the top lateral bracing forces were presented in this paper.
