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.

Transdermal and topical drug delivery with minimal tissue damage has been an area of vigorous research for years. Our research team has initiated the development of an effective method for delivering drug particles across the skin (transdermal) for systemic circulation, and to localized (topical) areas. The device consists of a laser ablation based micro-particle acceleration system that can be integrated with endoscopic surgical techniques. We have successfully delivered 3μm size cobalt particles into gelatin models that represent soft tissue with remarkable penetration depth.

A design-oriented method for analysis of the structural damage due to ship collisions is developed by using the idealized structural unit method(ISUM). The method takes into account yielding, crushing, rupture, the coupling effects between local and global failure of the structure, the influence of strain-rate sensitivity and the gap/contact conditions. The method is verified by a comparison of experimetal and numerical results obtained from test models of double-skin plated structures in collision/grounding situations with the present solutions. As an illustrative example, the method has been used for analyses of a side collision of a double-hull tanker. Several factors affecting ship collision response. namely the collision speed and the scantlings/arrangements of strength members, are discussed.

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.

The objective of this study is to identify the quantitative relationships among the important physical factors associated with failure of steel members under strong seismic excitations through very low-cycle fatigue tests. Very low-cycle fatigue is meant to be structural fatigue causing cracks and rupture in about 5~30 cycle ranges. The angle specimen was subjected to repeated axial Ioad after undergoing inelastic buckling. The test results reveal that the energy absorption capacities vary heavily with the history of loading and the failure mode. The maximum values of residual local strain at the initiation of a visible crack due to the very low-cycle fatigue were of the order of 25~40%, regardless of loading patterns, deflection modes, and width-to-thickness ratios.

In this study, a finite element formulation based first-order shear deformation theory is developed for non-linear behaviors of laminated composite plates containing matrix cracking. The multi-directional stiffness degradation is developed for adopting the stiffness variation induced from matrix cracking, which is proposed by Duan and Yao. The matrix cracking can be expressed in terms of the variation of material properties, such as Young's modulus, shear modulus and Possion ratio of plates, and sequently it is possible to predict the variation of the local stiffness. Using the assumed natural strain method, the present shell element generates neither membrane nor shear locking behavior. Numerical examples demonstrate that the present element behaves quite satisfactorily either for the linear or geometrical nonlinear analysis of laminated composite plates. The results of laminated composite plates with matrix cracking may be the benchmark test for the non-linear analysis of damaged laminated composite plates.

The application of health monitoring, including a fault detection technique, is needed to secure the structural safety of large structures. A 2-step crack identification method for detecting the crack location and size of the beam structure is presented. First, a crack occurrence region was estimated using the modified Laplacian operator for the strain mode shape obtained from the distributed local strain data. The crack location and size were then identified based on the natural frequencies obtained from the acceleration data and the neural network technique for the pre-estimated crack occurrence region. The natural frequencies of a cracked beam were calculated based on an equivalent bending stiffness induced by the energy method, and used to generate the training patterns of the neural network. An experimental study was carried out on an aluminum cantilever beam to verify the present method for crack identification. Cracks were produced on the beam, and free vibration tests were performed. A crack occurrence region was estimated using the modified Laplacian operator for the strain mode shape, and the crack location and size were assessed using the natural frequencies and neural network technique. The identified crack occurrence region agrees well with the exact one, and the accuracy of the estimation results for the crack location and size could be enhanced considerably for 3 damage cases. The presented method could be applied effectively to the structural health monitoring of large structures.

The stiffness properties of heterogeneous concrete materials and their degradation were investigated at different-levels of observations with aids of the opportunities and limitations of multi-resolution wavelet analysis. The successive Haw transformations lead to a recursive separation of the stiffness properties and the response into coarse-and fine-scale features. In the limit, this recursive process results in a homogenization parameter which is an average measure of stiffness and strain energy capacity at the coarse scale. The basic concept of multi-resolution analysis is illustrated with one and two-dimensional model problems of a two-phase particulate composite representative of the morphology of concrete materials. The computational studies include the meso-structural features of concrete in the form of a hi-material system of aggregate particles which are immersed in a hardened cement paste taking due to account of the mismatch of the two elastic constituents.
