The strain rate effects on fracture toughness and fracture resistance characteristics of A533B-1 nuclear pressure vessel steels were examined in the quasi-dynamic test conditions through the microscopic investigation of the intense strain region around crack tip and the microroughness of fracture surface. J-value calculated from the recrystallization etch technique was the same as calculated from the modified-J when the crack extension is less than 1.5mm in a 1/2T-CT specimen. Local fracture strain was calculated from the fracture surface micro-roughness. The local strains were calculated to be the values of 1.8 and 2.0 and were much higher than the macroscopically measured values. It was nearly independent on strain rate and was regarded as a material constant in ductile dimpled rupture. The fracture toughness increased with increase in strain rate while the tearing modulus showed little variation.

Localization of concrete is a phenomenon such that the deformation of concrete is localized in finite region with softening behavior and it governs ultimate load of concrete. In this Paper, concrete under strain localization was modeled with localization region and non-localization region and lc~calization behavior was formulated based on averaging concept of heterogeneous material. By using the formulation, the localization phenomena of concrete under uniaxial loadings were well predicted. The analytical results show that size of localization region of concrete under uniaxial compression is three times of maximum aggregate size and the size effect of concrete is well predicted. The use of tension-softening curve obtained from direct tension test is suitable for well prediction of localization of concrete under uniaxial tension.

Incremental forming is a cold working process in which a small part of the material is being deformed and the area of local deformation is moving over the entire material. In this paper, we study description schemes to perform finite element analysis for the incremental forming. The selected description schemes to examine are the Lagrangian description and the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) description. The sliding boundary scheme coupled with ALE is also examined to overcome the distortion problems of elements on the contact surface. Results show that the ALE description with the sliding boundary scheme is most favorable in overcoming the distortion of elements. This description leads to make the simulation continued to the final stage of the incremental forming. On the other hand, the Lagrangian description as well as the original ALE description makes the elements much distorted and the analysis is stopped long before arriving at the final shape of deformation.

Hwagae area, which is situated in the southeastern part of the Jirisan province, Yeongnam massif, Korea, is mainly composed of Precambrian Jirisan metamorphic rock complex (JMRC). Lithofacies distribution of the Precambrian constituent rocks mainly shows NS-trending tight fold and EW-trending open fold. This paper researched deformational phased structural characteristics of JMRC based on the geometric and kinematic features and the forming sequence of multi-deformed rock structures, and suggests that the geological structure of this area was formed through at least three phases of ductile deformation. (1) Most of structural elements related to the $D_1$ deformation were recognized as $S_{0-1-2}$ composite foliation which was transposed by the $D_2$ deformation. (2) The $D_2$ deformation occurred under the EW-directed tectonic compression, and formed the NS-trending $F_2$ fold and $D_2$ ductile shear zone which is (sub)parallel to the axial plane of $F_2$ fold. (3) The $D_3$ deformation occurred under the NS-directed tectonic compression, and partially reoriented the pre-$D_3$ structural elements into ENE or WNW direction. It indicates that the distribution of Precambrian lithofacies showing NS and EW-trending folds in the Hwagae area is closely associated with the $D_2$ and $D_3$ deformations, respectively.

The Miwon-Boeun area in the central and northern part of Okcheon metamorphic zone, Korea, is composed of Okcheon Supergroup and Mesozoic Cheongju and Boeun granitoids which intruded it. The Okcheon Supergroup consists mainly of quartzite (Midongsan Formation), meta-calcareous rocks (Daehyangsan Formation, Hwajeonri Formation), meta-psammitic rocks (Unkyori Formation), meta-politic rocks (Munjuri Formation), meta-conglomeratic rocks (Hwanggangni Formation) in the study area, showing a zonal distribution of NE trend. Its' general trend is locally changed into NS to EW trend in and around high-angle fault of NS or NW trend. This study focused on deformation history of the Okcheon Supergroup, suggesting that the geological structure was formed at least by four phases of deformation. (1) The first phase of deformation occurred under ductile shear deformation of top-to-the southeast movement, forming sheath fold or A-type fold, asymmetric isoclinal fold, NW-SE trending stretching lineation. (2) The second phase of deformation took place under compression of NW-SE direction, forming subhorizontal, tight upright fold of M trend in the earlier phase, and formed semi-brittle thrust fault (Guryongsan Thrust Fault) of top-to-the southeast movement and associated snake-head fold in the later phase. (3) The third phase of deformation formed subhorizontal, open recumbent fold through gravitational or extensional collapses which might be generated from crustal thickening and gravitational instability. (4) The fourth phase of deformation formed moderately plunging, steeply inclined kink fold related to high-angle faulting, being closely connected with the local change of NE-trending regional foliation into NS to EW direction of strike in the vicinity of the high-angle fault.

This paper deals with the characterics of the stability of uncontinuous plate structures with cracks. The relation between the J-intergal of the cracks existing in the stress-concentrated regions and local strain are investigated experimentally and theoretically. The BEM(boundary element method)analysis and test results lead to the follow conclusions: 1. A non-dimensional J was computed in a plate stress and strain condition for several kind of loads and crack types. The J design curves are defined as follows: J sub(E)/$\sigma$ sub(y) super(2) a=3.345(e/e sub(y) ) super(2) at e/e sub(y)$\leq$1 J sub(E)/$\sigma$ sub(y) super(2) a=3.345(e/e sub(y) ) at e/e sub(y)$\geq$1 2. Use of this curve provides a good estimation for the uncontinuous plate structures with cracks existing in the stress and strain concentrated region. 3. The stability of the characteristics is mainly depenent upon not the length of cracks but the type of the cracks.

Soils naturally contain grains of different minerals which may be dissolved under chemical or physical processes. The dissolution leads changes in microstructure of particulate media, such as an increase in local void or permeability, which affects the strength and deformation of soils. This study focuses on the small strain stiffness characteristics of vanishing mixtures, which consist of sand and salt particles at different volume fractions. Experiments are carried out in a conventional oedometer cell (Ko-loading) integrated with bender elements for the measurement of shear waves. Dissolutions of particles are implemented by saturating the mixtures at various confining stresses. Axial deformation and shear waves are recorded after each loading stage and during dissolution process. Experimental results show that after dissolution, the vertical strain and the void ratio increase, while the shear wave velocity and small strain shear modulus decrease. The decrease of the velocity results from the void ratio increase and particle contact decrease. The process monitoring during dissolution of the particles shows that the vertical strain dramatically increases at the beginning of the saturation process and converges after vanishing process finishes, and that the shear wave velocity decreases at the beginning and increases due to the particle reorientation. Specimens prepared by sand and salt particles are proved to be able to provide a valuable insight in macro structural behaviors of the vanishings mixtures.

An optimization of satellite honeycomb platforms under sever space environment is performed. There are many optimization constraints for space environment to be considered. A modified method of feasible direction and a genetic algorithm are used to optimize the satellite platform structures. The design constraints are concerned with bearing stresses at joints and natural frequencies. The results from the optimization methods are compared. The numerical results show that natural frequency constraints are dominant to reach the optimum design. This study verifies the design of satellite honeycomb platforms and suggests an optimal platform design.

플립칩과 같은 정밀한 전자부품을 일반적인 표면실장방법에 의해 고속으로 장착 시킬 경우에는 칩의 표면이 PCB 실장면에 닿는 순간 접촉력(Contact Force)이 크게 발생한다. 과도한 접촉력에 의해 솔더 볼의 표면에 크랙이 가거나 솔더 볼이 변형되어 좁은 피치 내에서 인접해 있는 솔더 볼이 서로 붙는다든지, 또한 리드가 손상된다든지 하는 등과 같은 현상이 발생하여 표면 실장 불량의 원인이 될 가능성이 높아진다. 또한, 유연한 재질로 구성된 PCB 실장면에 과도한 힘을 가할 시에는 실장면의 국부적인 탄성변형이 발생하여 칩의 장착위치가 변경되어 정확한 위치에의 장착이 어렵게 된다. 따라서 CSP 나 플립 칩과 같은 고정도 칩을 고속으로 정확한 위치에 실장하기 위해서는 칩을 장착할 때 플립칩과 실장면의 자세를 평형상태로 제어할 필요가 있으며, 특히 발생하는 충격을 감소시키기 위한 충격 제어와 충돌 후 일정한 접촉력 유지를 할 수 있는 힘 제어가 필수적임을 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 상기와 같은 자세제어 및 힘제어를 요구하는 플립 칩 장착을 위한 엑츄에이터와 거리/힘 센서 시스템을 개발하였다. 제안된 시스템의 효율성을 입증하기 위해 다양한 환경에서 성능시험을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 제안된 시스템의 만족할 만한 실험결과를 보여주었다.

최근 들어 국내외에서는 하천환경 및 생태서식처 기능을 갖는 자연형 하천으로의 복원에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이러한 하천복원의 범주에서 하천 내 설치되는 수공구조물에 대한 중요성이 많이 언급 되고 있는데 그 중 대표적인 것으로 수제를 들 수 있다. 하천 내 설치하는 수제(groyne)는 제방보호 및 유로변경의 목적으로 하천내에 시공되는 구조물 중의 하나로서 하천복원과정에 있어 필수불가결한 구조물 중의 하나로 인식되고 있다. 근래에 들어 경제성 및 환경성을 갖는 수제에 대한 연구로 변형수제에 대한 연구들이 진행 되고 있는데 변형수제의 대표적인 형상으로는 L형, T형 수제 및 굴절, 열쇠형 수제 등이 있다. 각각의 수제들은 그 형상에 따라 수제주변에서 국부적인 흐름구조가 다르게 발생하게 된다. 이러한 수제들은 수제 고유의 형태에 대한 흐름특성 연구들이 주로 이루어지고 있는 반면에 수제의 투영길이에 대한비교는 수행되지 않았다. 즉 동일한 수제길이를 갖더라도 설치각이나 형태에 따라 투영면적에 대한 유수단면적의 변화가 발생하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 그림과 같이 상향 또는 하향굴절수제를 대상으로 팔길이(AL)의 변화를 주었으며, 팔길이 변화로 인해 발생되는 투영길이(L')와 동일한 길이를 갖는 연직수제를 제작하여 흐름특성을 관측하고 비교하여 보았다. 수제는 군집 형태로 건설되는 것이 일반적이나 여러 가지 형태의 조합으로 건설되기도 하는데 이러한 투영길이에 대한 비교는 수제설계 시 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
