In this study, field measurements were performed to analyze the effects of train types (AREX, AREX Express, KTX, KTX-Sancheon) and train speeds on the dynamic behavior of the direct fixation track structure on Yeongjong grand bridge by bridge type (truss bridge, suspension bridge). Based on field measurement results, the track impact factor and train running stability (coefficient of derailment, Rate of wheel load reduction, lateral displacement of rail head) are compared with domestic and foreign standards and regulations to influence the dynamic behavior of direct fixation track. As a result, the differences in the dynamic behavior of the direct fixation tracks by the type of bridges of Yeongjong bridge are not significant, but it was analyzed that these were more directly affected by the magnitude of the train load. Therefore, it is necessary to establish the reinforcement plan of the direct fixation track structure on Yeongjong grand bridge in consideration of the increase of the track impact factor and dynamic track force.

This study performed 4-point flexural tests of reinforced concrete to which was attached a distributed optical fiber sheet and carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets in order to assess the effect of the CFRP sheets and the applicability of a BOTDR sensor simultaneously. To evaluate the reinforcing effect, various degrees of CFRP sheet attachment were manufactured, and to evaluate the sensing ability, strains obtained from a BOTDR sensor were compared with strains measured from electric resistance strain gauges that were attached to the concrete surface. From the results, the reinforcing effects were evidently different according to the attachment type of the CFRP sheets, and it was confirmed that the main influencing factor on the reinforcing effect was the type of attachment rather than the attachment area. The reinforced concrete structural behavior was visualized with strains measured from the BOTDR sensor as load increased, and it was identified that load was concentrated in the CFRP reinforced area. Strains from the BOTDR sensor were similar to those from the electric resistance strain gauge; thereby a BOTDR sensor can be effective in the analysis of structural behaviorsof massive infrastructure. Finally, the strain from a BOTDR sensor was high where CFRP sheet fall-off occurs, and it would therefore be efficient to track local damage locations of CFRP sheets by utilizing a BOTDR sensor.

화강토와 관련된 지반문제의 거동예측을 위한 수치해석의 적용이 양적인 면에서는 많이 확대되어왔지만 해석결과에 지대한 영향을 미치는 구성방정식 등 수치해석 모델링을 개선하고자 하는 노력은 부족하였다. 화강토 거동의 특징은 내재적 결합력으로 인한 구조화의 거동을 나타내는 것이며, 항복면이 평균유효응력 축에 대칭이고 Non-associated 소성거동을 보인다는 점이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 화강토 거동을 표현하기 위하여 일반화된 한계상태모델을 도입하고, 이를 화강토의 경화거동 모델링이 가능하도록 확장하였다. 제안된 모델을 이용한 삼축시험의 유한요소 시뮬레이션 결과는 측정결과와 좋은 일치를 보였다. 화강토 지반내 터널에 대한 유한요소해석을 수행한 결과, 비선형 탄성모델과 조합된 확장된 한계상태모델이 현장계측결과와 잘 일치하는 결과를 주었다.

진동하는 구조물의 음향 방사 예측에는 키르히호프-헬름홀쯔 적분 방정식에 근본을 둔 경계 요소 해석이 널리 사용된다. 이 경계 요소 해석은 익히 알고 있듯이 구조물의 동적 거동이 정량적으로 표현될 수 있는 경우는 매우 높은 정확도의 예측 결과를 제공한다. 그러나 실제 현상에서 접할 수 있는 복잡한 구조물의 음향 방사 예측에는 많은 변수들로 인해 예측의 정확도가 감소됨은 확실하다. 다른 방법으로는 실험을 통한 임의의 음장 예측 방법인 근음장 음향 홀로그래피(nearfield acoustical holography) 방법을 들 수 있다. 이 방법은 실제로 발생되는 음향 방사로부터 마이크로폰을 이용하여 홀로그램면의 음압 또는 속도를 측정하고 키르히호프-헬름홀쯔 적분 방정식에 적용하여 임의의 홀로그램면에 투사(mapping)시켜 음장을 예측하는 방법이다. 근음장 음향 홀로그래피는 탁월한 정확성을 갖고 있으나, 측정의 복잡성과 홀로그램면을 형성하기 위한 많은 이산점(절점)의 필요성 등의 단점을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 또 다른 음장 예측 방법인 실험의 장점과 유한 요소 해석의 장정을 복합시킨 모드 확장 방법(modal expansion method)을 사용하여 단순 구조물인 평판의 진동에 의한 음장을 예측해 보았다. 모드 확장 방법은 구조물의 동적 거동은 모드의 선형 조합으로 표현될 수 있다는 것에 그 원리를 둔다. 본 논문은 단순 평판을 대상으로 유한 요소 해석으로 구한 모드 정보와 실험에 의해 얻은 입의 가진 주파수에 대한 진동 표면의 속도 분포를 조합하여 속도 경계 조건을 구성, 경계 요소 해석으로 음장 예측을 수행하였으며 모드 확장 방법을 사용함에 있어 고려해야할 몇 가지 사항에 대해 다루었다.

Purpose: A study was conducted to ensure the structural safety of a raised girder bridge with improved cross-sectional efficiency compared to the conventional PSC girder. For this purpose, the cross-sectional specifications such as girder length, height, and width were determined, the arrangement of the tendons was designed, and the practical performance of the raised girder under static and dynamic loads was verified. Method: The static performance experiment examined the serviceability limit state by measuring behavioral responses such as deflection and cracking to primary and secondary static loads. In addition, the dynamic load loading experiment measured the acceleration and displacement behavior response over time to calculate the natural frequency and damping ratio to examine the usability limit state. Result: As a result of the static performance test, the deflection value based on the maximum applied load showed stable behavior, and the crack width measured at the maximum applied load level was very small, satisfying the serviceability limit state. In addition, a natural frequency exceeding the natural frequency calculated during the design of the dynamic loading experiment was found, and a damping ratio that satisfies the current regulations was found to be secured.

The use of composite materials for structural fasteners is increasingly common, making it crucial to assess the deformation of these fasteners under fatigue behavior. In this study, clamp-type fasteners were manufactured using carbon fiber reinforced composites, and their structural stability and sectional damage rates were evaluated using electrical resistance measurement during fatigue behavior. While clamp-type composite fasteners exhibited minimal deformation in flat sections, significant deformation occurred in the bent sections due to fatigue. It was observed that insufficient angular stability led to concentrated damage in the bent sections. The dynamic fatigue behavior showed that the length change rate of the composite fasteners was within 0.6%, but the angular change rate reached up to 6%, indicating that the bent sections are the most critical areas. By utilizing the self-sensing capability of the composite fasteners, sectional damage behavior was assessed through electrical resistance measurement. Significant damage was noted in the bent sections due to fatigue, and 3D-CT results revealed substantial deformation and interfacial damage when the initial bend angle of the fasteners was less than 90 degrees. These findings highlight the importance of reinforcing the stiffness of the bent sections and establishing systematic angular standards in the development of composite fasteners.

When applying a system identification technique, which incorporates an experimental model to a corresponding finite element model of a structure, one of the major problems is the large difference in the numbers of degrees of freedom (dof) between the two models. While there are large number of dofs in a finite element model, the number of measurement points is practically limited. So it is very difficult to incorporate them. Especially rotational dofs are hard to measure. In this study a method is presented for estimating structural dynamic responses at unmeasurable locations in frequency domain. The proposed method is tested numerically and the feasibility for practical application has been demonstrated through an example structure under moving loads, where translational and rotational dofs of beam at a center point are estimated from the partial measurements of responses at accessible points.

Field experiments as well as numerical analyses with finite element analysis codes are two valuable and complemental ways to understand the structural response under explosive blast load. However, there seems to be only limited information available about finite element analysis and experimental validation on the response of structural components under internal explosions. For complementary use of the two ways, the numerical analyses should be validated with field experiments by comparing their results. In this paper, a small-scaled reinforced concrete building with a room is employed for experimental investigations. An amount of TNT is detonated at the center of the room. Pressure at three different sites in the room, displacement of centers of two walls, and damage patterns of four walls are measured and compared to results from numerical analyses. The experimental results are much similar to the numerical analyses results. The finite element analysis code ANSYS AUTODYN is employed to numerically analyze both pressure distribution inside the room and response of walls subjected to blast pressure. The feasibility and validity of the numerical analysis on the reponses of structural components under internal explosions are discussed in terms of structural damage assessment, and evaluated as the same damage in the analysis and the experiments.
