In this study, an unbraced five-story steel-framed structure was designed in accordance with KBC2005 to understand the features of structural behavior for the arrangement of semi-rigid connections. A pushover analysis of the structural models was performed, wherein all the connections were idealized as fully rigid and semi-rigid. Additionally, horizontal and vertical arrangements of the semi-rigid connection were adopted for the models. A fiber model was utilized for the moment-curvature relationship of the steel beam and the column, and a three-parameter power model was adopted for the moment-rotation angle of the semi-rigid connection. The top displacement, base-shear force, required ductility for the connection, sequence of the plastic hinge, and design factors such as the overstrength factor, ductility factor, and response modification coefficient were investigated using the pushover analysis of a 2D structure subjected to the equivalent static lateral force of KBC2005. The partial arrangement of the semi-rigid connection was found to have secured higher strength and lateral stiffness than that of the A-Semi frame, and greater ductility than the A-Rigid frame. The TSD connection was found suitable for use for economy and safety in the sample structure.

Auxiliary support systems such as the reinforced protective umbrella method have been applied before tunnel excavation to increase ground stiffness and to prevent the large deformation. However, determination procedure of geotechnical parameters along the construction sequence contains various errors. This study suggests a method to characterize the time-dependent behavior of pre-reinforced zones around the tunnel using elastic waves. Experimental results show that shear strength as well as elastic wave velocities increase with the curing time. Shear strength and strength parameters can be uniquely correlated to elastic wave velocities. Obtained results from the laboratory tests are applied to numerical simulation of tunnel considering its construction sequences. Based on numerical analysis, initial installation part of pre-reinforcement and portal of tunnel are critical for tunnel stability. Result of the time-dependent condition is similar to the results of for $1{\sim}2$ days of the constant time conditions. Finally, suggested simple analysis method combining experimental and numerical procedure which considering time-dependent behavior of pre-reinforced zone on tunnel would provide reliable and reasonable design and analysis for tunnel.

PS/PPO 블렌등의 동적 탄성율 E*($\omega$)와 동적 스트레인-광학계수 O*($\omega$)을 유리전이 영역에서 동시에 측정하여, PS/PPO 3종류조성블렌드의 E*($\omega$)와 O*($\omega$)완화거동을 조성 단 일 중합체와 비교고찰하였다. PS/PPO 블렌드의 $\alpha$-분산 점탄성 거동은 조성에 관계없이 거 의 유사하여 조성 고분자가 상호 협동적으로 완화하는 것을 알수 있었다. 그러나 광학적 완 화 스펙트럼 O*($\omega$)는 정성적으로 명확히 다른 거동을 보였다. 단일 PS와 PPO의 O*($\omega$)는 전 영역에 걸쳐 상반된 부로를 나타냈으며 두 고분자의 블렌드는 조성고분자의 반대부호를 상호보상으로 인하여 복굴절이 감소하였다. 3종류블렌드는 PPO의 조성이 증가함에 따라 상 호보상에 의해 O*($\omega$)의부호가 순차적으로 변하여 반전하였으며, 저 복굴절 PS/PPO 블렌드 의 PS조성이 65-80wt% 범위내에 있음을 추정할수 있었다. 상이한 부호를 갖는 복굴절 특 성으로 인하여 블렌드 내에서 각 성분 고분자의 완화 기여를 다순 가성법칙에 의해 정량적 으로 계산하는 것이 가능하였다. 또한 PS/PPO 블렌드의 상용성을 광학적 부분 기여 파라메 터를 사용하여 고찰하였다.

To strengthen the technological competitiveness of the construction market in Korea, researches have been performed to replace the prescriptive design codes (PD) to the performance-based ones (PBD). As one of the basic requirements for PBDs, development of the optimized concrete material models for domestic applications have been tried by comparing and verifying the pre-existing models with the observations and quality evaluations of ready mixed concretes that are used in the domestic market. This paper shows the summary of the present state of the research progress in the areas of compressive strength and elastic modulus.

Current limit state design method for encased composite columns contains irrational and uncertain design equations in defining section and material properties of composite members. Through investigating previous research used in formulating the design equation, this paper explores the irrationality and uncertainty such as 1) transformation of yield stress and elastic modulus for composite section, 2) an equation influencing buckling strength in terms of area rather than moment of inertia, and 3) selection of larger radius of gyration between steel and concrete sections. Improving the design equations this paper proposes two design methods which can be directly used in practical design.

It is a tedious and excessive time consuming process to model the local area of crack tip part of structures in calculation of stress intensity factors by FEM. So, in this paper, the hybrid method of FEM and BEM approach was formulated to overcome this type of problems. The multi-domained BEM was adopted to simplify the modelling process of complex geometry and singularity characteristics of crack tip part and the ordinary FEM modelling was used in the rest part. The example calculations shows very good results compared with analytic solutions and other numerical method.

Reinforced concrete structures are an integrated structure in which reinforcing bars are placed on the tensile side of the beam to compensate for concrete that is strong in compression but weak in tension, so that the concrete receives compressive force and the reinforcing bars receive tensile force. It is durable, fire-resistant, economical, and adapts to the shape and dimensions of the structure. It has been widely used for a long time because it can be made freely without restrictions. However, reinforced concrete structures have the disadvantage that cracks occur easily, so they are repaired using a cross-sectional construction method. During this process, problems such as the repair part falling off occurred, so in order to solve the problem, stress changes due to changes in the size of the repair part were examined. As a result, based on the elastic modulus ratio of 1.0, the stress tended to increase as the size of the repair part decreased when it was less than 1.0, and the opposite tendency was seen when it was more than 1.0. This is believed to be due to an increase in the area of the part with a large elastic modulus.

Material properties of the lock plate, which covers the gas-turbine blade, are studied using ultrasonic guided waves. The lock plate is a crucial part of a gas-turbine power plant. The wave velocity and attenuation coefficient are measured to investigate the changes in the material properties under three heat-treatment conditions. Compared to the destructive mechanical tests, the material characterization of Inconel X-750 can be performed more efficiently and nondestructively by using ultrasonic guided waves; this characterization helps identify the changes occurring in its elastic moduli and Poisson's ratio under different heat-treatment conditions. The wave velocity and hardness of Inconel X-750 are proportional to each other. This nondestructive technique for the measurement of material properties can be widely used in various industries to avoid catastrophic failure. It is also expected that the guided-wave technique can be applied as a new cost- and time-saving inspection tool for longer and wider inspection ranges.

In order to evaluate the deformation and stiffness of frame structure for fishery, composed of unit platforms which made of two concentric high density polyethylene buoys fixed by clamps and belts and rubber hinge components, under wave, the structural analysis for the square type of the structure was carried out by using finite element methods. The accurate physical properties of rubber hinge components determined by material tests were an important parameter to evaluate more reliable structural stability for the structure. The idealization to beam element with equivalent stiffness and rubber element with linearity for rubber hinges was necessary for the modeling of rubber component which has hyper-elastic characteristics. In addition, it was shown that the structural response of the structure under wave was larger in the hogging condition than that of in the still water or in the sagging condition.
