The purpose of this research is to develop improved model for joints of tunnel based on Disturbed State Concept (DSC) model. DSC model is verified with respect to comprehensive laboratory tests performed by Schneider and back prediction results. Based on results of this research, it can be stated that DSC model is capable of characterizing the strain softening and dilative behavior of rough granite joints under four different constant normal stresses.

암석 내에 포함된 불연속면으로 인하여 암석은 압축하중 하에서 복잡한 거동을 한다. 이러한 복잡한 거동은 변형률강화(strain hardening), 변형률연화(strain softening), 부피팽창(dilatancy)등의 비선형 거동을 포함하는데, 이들은 균열의 성장, 상호작용(interaction), 연합(coalescence) 등을 통하여 발생한다(Brace et al., 1972; Kranz, 1983). 이와 같은 암석의 비선형적 거동을 설명하기 위하여 여러 형태의 균열모형이 개발된 바 있다(Costin, 1985; Nemat-Nasser ＆ Horii, 1982; Wang & Kemeny, 1993; Jeon, 1998).

An analytical method capable of predicting various stress-strain responses in axially loaded concrete confined with FRP (fiber reinforced polymers) composites in a rational manner is presented. Its underlying idea is that the volumetric expansion due to progressive microcracking in mechanically loaded concrete is an important measure of the extent of damage in the material microstructure, and can be utilized to estimate the load-carrying capacity of concrete by considering the corresponding accumulated damage. Following from this, an elastic modulus expressed as a function of area strain and concrete porosity, the energy-balance equation relating the dilating concrete to the confining device interactively, the varying confining pressure, and an incremental calculation algorithm are included in the solution procedure. The proposed method enables the evaluation of lateral strains consecutively according to the related mechanical model and the energy-balance equation, rather than using an empirically derived equation for Poisson's ratio or dilation rate as in other analytical methods. Several existing analytical methods that can predict the overall response were also examined and discussed, particularly focusing on the way of considering the volumetric expansion. The results predicted by the proposed and Samaan's bilinear equation models correlated with observed results with a reasonable degree, however it can be judged that the latter is not capable of predicting the response of lateral strains correctly due to incorporating the initial Poisson's ratio and the final converged dilation rate only. Further, the proposed method seems to have greater benefits in other applications by the use of the fundamental principles of mechanics.

최근 친환경 에너지에 대한 관심이 증폭되면서 리튬이차전지에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 음극(anode) 물질의 경우 기존의 흑연(graphite)보다 이론적 용량이 약 10배 이상 높은 실리콘(Silicon)에 대한 관심이 매우 높다. 하지만 Si의 경우 리튬 충전거동 시 400% 이상의 부피팽창으로 몇 번의 충전/방전 싸이클(cycle)에 전극이 파괴되는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해 Si 나노선이 고려되고 있다. 우수한 전극특성을 갖는 Si 소재를 개발하기 위해서는 원자단위에서 Si 나노선의 리튬 충전 메커니즘을 살펴보는 것이 매우 중요하다. 하지만 기존의 시뮬레이션 기법으로는 Si 나노선의 볼륨팽창에 관한 메커니즘과 리튬 충전과정에서의 상변화(결정질에서 비정질) 과정을 설명하기는 기술적으로 매우 힘들다. 고전적인 분자동역학 방법의 경우 실제 나노스케일을 고려할 수 있지만, empirical potential로는 원자들간의 화학반응을 제대로 묘사할 수 없다. 한편 양자역학에 기반을 둔 제일원리방법의 경우 계산의 복잡성으로 현재의 컴퓨터 환경에서는 나노스케일에서 원자들의 동역학적인 거동을 연구하기 매우 힘들다. 우리는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 실제 나노스케일에서 원자간 화학반응을 예측할 수 있는 Si-Li 시스템의 Reactive force field를 개발하였고, 분자동역학 계산방법을 이용하여 Si 나노선의 Li 충전 메커니즘을 규명하였다.

Swelling properties and shear strength behavior of MgO-Sand mixtures with hydration procese of MgO are compared according to different MgO contents (W_MgO/W_Total=0, 30, 50, 70, 100%) in this study. The specimens are prepared by mixing with crushed MgO refractory bricks and silica sand. After hydration, the particle size and the specific gravity of MgO were decreases. Through microstructure observation and X-ray diffraction analysis, it is confirmed that MgO changes from the cubic structure of Periclase to the hexagonal cubic structure of Brucite after hydration. As the MgO content increases, both swelling rate and swelling pressure of the mixtures increase. W_MgO/W_Total=30% specimen shows relatively low swelling pressure and swelling rate because produced Mg(OH)₂ mainly fills the pores between sand particles. However, in the case of MgO more than 50%, swelling pressure and swelling rate increase significantly because Mg(OH)₂ fills the pores of sand particles at first and then either pushes out sand particles or Mg(OH)₂ particles after filling the pores. As a result of the direct shear test, before hydration, the mixtures show a dilative behavior on high MgO contents and a contractive behavior on low MgO contents. However, after hydration, the behavior of all mixtures changes to contractive behavior. The threshold fraction of fine (i.e., Mg(OH)₂) contents of the hydrated MgO-Sand mixtures reveals approximately 60% compared with normalized shear strength.

If the groundwater in rock joint is changed into ice, it induces the stress increment by volume increase. Also, if the ice is changed into groundwater again, the stress in joint decreases by volume decrease. The accumulated displacement and fatigues of joints are increased by the stress-hysterisis, induced from the continuous frost-thawing. Also the shear strength is decreased by them continuously. The stress-hysterisis is affected by the atmospheric temperature changes, whose behavior is visco-elasticity, usually. Therefore, Kelvin model could be used to analyze the frost-thawing behavior in winter. The measured data of total 5 points are examined, which are composed of 3 points of shallow joints and 2 points of deep joints. Because shallow weathered rocks have many joints, a lot of Kelvin model are connected and the behaviors are complicated. In case of deep joints, simple Kelvin model is applied and the behaviors are also simple.

Recently, aluminum pipes have been used instead of steel pipes for open and shut machines in vinyl housing because of its corrosion-resistance and light weight. In particular, the light weight is very useful for fitting and removal by human resources. On the other hand, an aluminum pipe is weak in winter because aluminum has a larger thermal expansion coefficient than steel. This study examined the freezing and bursting of aluminum pipes by numerical analysis. The mechanical-thermal deformation characteristics were analyzed under the condition of ice volumetric expansion in aluminum pipes reaching 50%. From numerical analysis, large stresses above the yield stress occurred in aluminum pipe after ice expanded in the net diameter immediately. In addition, the freezing and bursting of aluminum pipes was predicted around an ice volumetric expansion of 6 - 7% because the thickness of the aluminum pipe reached an aluminum elongation ratio of 17%. Therefore, it is recommended that aluminum pipes be sealed perfectly to prevent water flow in the pipe. These results suggest that it is very difficult to prevent freezing and bursting of aluminum pipes by water freezing in the pipe.

rf 플라즈마 화학증착을 이용하여 증착된 hydrogenated DLC막의 잔류응력 거동에 대해 조사하였다. 합성된 DLC막의 압축 잔류응력은 이온 에너지뿐만 아니라 이온/원자 유입량 비에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 조사되었다. 잔류응력의 최대치는 이온/원자 유입량비가 증가할수록 낮은 이온 에너지 구간에서 일어나며 그 값은 증가하였다. 이온 에너지에 따른 DLC막의 결합 구조의 변형을 Raman 스펙트럼을 이용하여 분석하였다. DLC막의 잔류응력은 sp3결합의 net working이 최대가 되는 점에서 최대치를 보이며, 이는 sp3 net working에 의한 부피팽창 요인에 기인하는 것으로 생각된다. DLC막 내의 유입되는 수소는 잔류응력의 직접적인 원인으로 작용하지 않는 것으로 분석되었다.

고온의 증기가 과냉각 상태의 물과 직접접촉에 의해 발생하는 응축현상(DCC Direct Contact Condensation)을 실험적으로 고찰하였다. 본 연구는 두단계로 나누어 수행하였다. 1단계 연구에서는 간단한 원형관 형태의 수평 노즐을 통하여 증기제트가 대기압 상태의 과냉각수로 분출될 때 증기제트 및 주위의 거동을 측정·분석하였다. 수조의 온도와 증기유량의 변화에 따른 증기제트의 축방향과 반경방향 온도분포와 수조 벽면에서의 동압을 측정하였으며, 고속 비디오 카메라를 사용하여 각각의 경우에 대하여 증기제트의 분출이미지를 촬영하였다. 벽면에서의 동압은 노즐의 분출구직경과 응축수의 온도에 비례하여 증가하였다. 2단계 연구에서는 몇가지 형태의 증기분사기 축소 모형에 대한 응축성능을 비교하였다. 이때에는 수조의 온도상승으로 인해 수조가 가압되는 정도를 알아보기 위해 수조를 밀봉한 상태로 실험을 수행하였다. 실험시 수조의 압력은 시간의 경과에 따라 계속적으로 증가하였으나, 이는 방출된 증기의 불완전한 응축에 의한 것은 아니고 증기의 분출과 응축으로 인한 응축수의 부피팽창과 수조 온도의 상승으로 인한 증기압의 상승 때문인 것으로 판단된다.
