A new stress path test method, which is more suitable f3r evaluating settlements of clay deposits, was introduced. This new method is basically based on back pressure equalization concept and makes it possible to estimate deformations corresponding to all points on a specific stress path by only one test. As a result, deformation characteristics of a clay deposit can be predicted by a few tests and the more practical application of stress path method can be realized. In addition, anisotropic deformation behaviors following arbitrary stress paths also can be experimentally measured by this test method. Experimental applicability of the proposed method was confirmed by performing various stress path tests on remolded kaolinite samples and the actual process to evaluate overall deformation characteristics and settlements was also presented.

The behavior of pure silt was investigated by using an automated triaxial testing device. The stress-strain behavior of silt due to the volume deformation tendency was compared with the behavior of clay prior to failure and behavior at failure under monotonic undrained compression and extension conditions. A pure silica flour was chosen to form samples. The isotropically normally-consolidated samples with 450 kPa of effective mean confining pressure and overconsolidated samples through unloading were tested. Based on the experimental results, it was qualitatively identified that the undrained strength of normally-consolidated silt increases due to its dilatant nature which is not seen in clay. Also the overconsolidated silt shows a significantly different behavior under the monotonic loadings due to the volume deformation tendency.

It is very important that predict the inelastic seismic behavior exactly for seismic performance evaluation of a building in the performance based seismic design. But, it is difficulty that predict the building behavior of actual and exact in simplified load-deformation relation of structural material and members. In this study, system ductility and story ductility capacity of building structure used to the Backbone hinge Model are estimated and compared considering the characteristics of load-deformation relation of structural material and members. Analyses results, bilinear hinge model has lower system ductility and story ductility demands than those of backbone hinge model.

This study deals with the stress-strain-strain rate behaviour of overconsolidated clay. Consolidated-drained stress path tests were performed on the stress-time dependent condition. Stress history consists of rotation angle of stress path, overconsolidation ratio, and magnitude of length of recent stress path. Time history includes loading rate of recent and current stress path. Test results show that all influence factors have an increasing strain rate with time, and the strain rate varies with the change of the rotation angle of stress path. With the increase of overconsolidation ratio and loading rate of current stress path, the strain rate also increases. For the stress history, correlation between stress-strain and strain rate is indicated but the time history is not.

나노인덴테이션은 시편에 압자를 침투시켜 재료의 기계적 특성을 파악할 수 있는 경도시험법이다. 압입범위를 나노미터범위로 조절할 수 있어 기존에 접근할 수 없었던 극 미소부분에로 응용이 넓어지고 있다. 경도시험시 재료의 탄성 및 소성 작용에 의해 재료는 변형되고, 표면변화 관찰을 통해 표면아래 부분에서 이루어지고 있는 거동을 예측할 수 있다. 이러한 관점에서 나노인덴테이션 시험시에도 발생하는 파일업과 싱크인 현상에서 재료가 나노미터 범위에서 어떠한 양상으로 변형을 하는지를 고찰하는 것은 의미가 있을 것이다. 본 연구에서 파일업과 싱크인의 양상을 파악하고 그 양을 정량화하기 위하여 가공경화양에 따른 표면변화와 압입하중 변화에 따른 표면변화를 관찰하였다. 어닐링한 봉상 알루미늄을 압축변형을 0%, 5%, 20%, 40%, 50% 로 변형시켜 가공경화를 일으켰고, 표면은 전해연마하여 나노압입시험이 가능하도록 하였다. 각각의 시편을 나노인덴테이션 압입하중을 변화시켜 재료에서 하중 변화에 따라 나타나는 표면변화를 관찰하였고, 위의 각 조건에서 파일업양을 정량화 하였다. 연구결과에 대해 ANSYS 유한요소분석 프로그램을 사용하여 재료의 변형양상을 시뮬레이션 하였고, 실제 실험데이터와 비교 분석하였다.

This paper shows an deformation behavior of steel cast slabs, which is used to prevent internal cracks of a slab in an unbending zone, in case of hot charge rolling(HCR) and hot direct rolling(HDR). The value of moving strand shell bulging between two supporting rollers under ferrostatic pressure has been computed in terms of creep and elastic-plasticity and for high strand surface temperature and high casting speed V=1.4-2.2m/min. The strain and strain rate distributions in solidified shell undergoes a series of bulging are calculated with boundary condition a very closed to continuous steel cast slabs productions.

The normal stress of cement paste measured under squeeze flow is divided into an elastic solid region at strains between 0.0003 and 0.003 and a strain-hardening region at strains of 0.003 and 0.8. A modeling equation at the strain-hardening region was proposed. First, from the viewpoint of fluid behavior, the power-law non-Newtonian fluid model, with a power-law consistency (m) of 700 and a power index (n) of 0.2, was applied. The results showed good agreement with the experimental results except for an elastic solid region. Second, from the viewpoint of ductile yielding solid behavior, the force balance model was applied, and the friction coefficient between the sensor part measuring the load and the surface of the cement paste was derived as a polynomial of the normal strain by applying the half-interval search method to the experimental data. The results showed good agreement with the experimental results only in the middle normal strain region at strains between 0.003 and 0.3. The rheological behavior of the cement paste under squeeze flow was more consistent with the experimental results from the viewpoint of power-law non-Newtonian fluid behavior than from the viewpoint of ductile yielding solid behavior in the strain-hardening region.

The behaviors of the reinforced concrete membrane elements are expected by Navier's three principles of the mechanics of materials. The adopted cyclic stress-strain curves of concrete consist of seven different unloading and loading stages in the compressive zone and six other stages in the tensile zone. The curves took into account the softening of concrete that was influenced by the tensile strain in the perpendicular direction of cracks. The stress-strain relationships for steel bar embedded in concrete subjected to reversed cyclic forces considered the tension stiffening effect and Baushinger effect. The predicted results of the analysis based on Navier's principles were in good agreement with the observed shear stress-strain relationships as well as transverse and longitudinal strains.

ECC is a special kind of high performance cementititous composite which exhibits typically more than 2% tensile strain capacity by bridging microcracks at a crack section. Therefore, micromechanics should be adopted to obtain multiple cracking and strain hardening behavior. This paper propose a linear elastic analysis method to simulate the multiple cracking and strain hardening behavior of ECC. In an analysis, the stress-crack opening relation modified considering the orientation of fibers and the number of effective fibers is adopted. Furthermore, to account for uncertainty of materials and interface between materials, the randomness is assigned to the tensile strength(${\sigma}_{fci}$), elastic modulus($E_{ci}$), peak bridging stress(${\sigma}_{Bi}$) and crack opening at peak bridging stress(${\delta}_{Bi}$), initial stress at a crack section due to chemical bonding, (${\sigma}_{0i}$), and crack spacing(${\alpha}_cX_d$). Test results shows the number of cracking and stiffness of cracked section are important parameters and strain hardening behavior and maximum strain capacity can be simulated using the proposed method.

The predictions of the material behavior for the structural stability of thrust chamber mixing head at very-low temperatures are very important since the head is highly pressurized by the liquid oxygen with very-low temperatures and experiences impact load by the thrust of combustion chamber. The constitutive equation to express tensile deformation behavior of the material at very-low temperature to predict deformation behavior of the mixing head is formulated by composition of thermal component and athermal component based on dislocation energy barrier model suggested by Kocks. Also, increase of thermal stress components by the increase of obstacles at low temperatures is formulated to the equation similar with Ramberg-Osgood equation. The suggested model predicted well the material's behavior at the wide temperature ranges from very-low temperature to ambient temperature.
