In this study, the plastic zone and internal earth pressure of the tunnel were calculated using the following three methods: metal plasticity to analyze the deformation of metal during plastic processing, Terzaghi's earth pressure theory from the geotechnical perspective and modified Terzaghi's earth pressure theory, and slip line theory using Mohr-Coulomb yield conditions. All three methods are two-dimensional mathematical analysis models for analyzing the plane strain conditions of isotropic materials. Using the theory of metallurgical plastics, the plastic zone and the internal earth pressure of the ground were obtained by assuming that the internal pressure acts on the tunnel, so different results were derived that did not match the actual tunnel site, where only gravity was applied. An analysis of the plasticity zone and earth pressure via the slip-line method showed that a failure line is formed in a log-spiral, which was found to be similar to the real failure line by comparing the results of previous studies. The earth pressure was calculated using a theoretical method. Terzaghi's earth pressure was calculated to be larger than the earth pressure considering the dilatancy effect.

An active application of concrete track is being expected far the future constructions of Korean railroad. In comparison with the existing ballasted tract, a concrete track is very susceptible for the settlement, since its rehabilitation requires much time and cost. When a concrete track is constructed on fine-grained subgrade soil, excessive cumulative plastic settlements due to repetitive train road may occur. In this case, the settlement of the concrete track may be effectively reduced by installing a small number of small-diameter piles beneath the track. This paper presents the effect of pile installation on the reduction of cumulative plastic settlement of concrete track. A method combining experiential equation and numerical method is proposed. Using an existing experiential equation and the estimated earth pressure distribution, the cumulative plastic strain was calculated. From the results, it is verified that the effects of the pile installation is significant to effectively reduce the cumulative plastic settlement of concrete track. The reduction effects of the cumulative plastic settlement according to the pile number and pile arrangement are presented.

최근 자동차 산업이 발달함에 따라 철강업계와 자동차 회사에서는 전에 많이 사용하던 내연 무도금강판 대신 부식에 저항력이 강한 도금강판을 사용한 이후로 냉연강판의 가공 시에 야기되지 않았던 많은 문제점들이 나타났다 자동차용 강판의 경우 판재의 체적에 비하여 금형과 판재의 접촉면적이 큰 프레스 공정에서는 판재의 표면에 작용하는 마찰력의 크기가 판재의 스탬핑 성형성에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이는 마찰특성이 비록 재료고유의 성형한계에서는 영향을 미치지 못하나 스탬핑 공정에 있어서 금형과의 접촉면에서 마찰력의 크기가 패널의 변형률분포를 변화시켜 스탬핑 성형성에 큰 영향을 주는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구는 자동차용 도금강판의 표면 거칠기에 따른 판재의 표면 마찰 특성 변화를 알아보았다. 소재의 기계적 특성 측정은 UTM을 사용하였고, 도금층은 XRD, SEM을 이용하여 상분석 하였으며, 표면 거칠기는 AFM(Atomic Force Microscope), SJ-400(Mitutoyo)을 사용하여 표면 거칠기를 측정하였다. 또 드로잉 하중을 비드부에서의 굽힘-굽힘 풀림 소성변형에 의한 변형력 성분과 마찰력 성분으로 분리하여 강판의 쿠롬 마찰계수를 DBS(Draw bead simulation)로 측정하였다.

In a performance-based design, the structural safety is estimated from pre-defined damage states and corresponding damage indices. Both damage states and damage indices are well defined for above-ground structures, but very limited studies have been performed on underground structures. In this study, we define the damage states and damage indices of a cut-and-cover box tunnel which is one of typical structures used in metro systems, under a seismic excitation from a series of inelastic frame analyses. Three damage states are defined in terms of the number of plastic hinges that develop within the structure. The damage index is defined as the ratio of the elastic moment to the yield moment. Through use of the proposed index, the inelastic behavior and failure mechanism of box tunnels can be simulated and predicted through elastic analysis. In addition, the damage indices are linked to free-field shear strains. Because the free-field shear strain can be easily calculated from a 1D site response analysis, the proposed method can be readily used in practice. Further studies are needed to determine the range of shear strains and associated uncertainties for various types of tunnels and site profiles. However, the inter-linked platform of damage state - damage index - shear wave velocity - shear strain provides a novel approach for estimating the inelastic response of tunnels, and can be widely used in practice for seismic designs.

In order to evaluate spring-back behavior in automotive sheet forming processes, a panel shape idealized as a double S-rail has been investigated. After spring-back has been predicted for double S-rails using the finite element analysis, results has been compared with experimental measurements for three automotive sheets. To account for hardening behavior such as the Bauschinger and transient effects in addition to anisotropic behavior, the combined isotropic-kinematic hardening law based on the Chaboche type model and a recently developed non-quadratic anisotropic yield function have been utilized, respectively.

For geotechnical design in practice, soils are, in general, assumed to behave as a linear elastic or perfect plastic material. More realistic geotechnical design, however, should take into account various factors that affect soil behavior in the field, such as non-linearity of stress-strain response, stress history, and water content. In this study, a series of laboratory tests including triaxial and resonant column tests were peformed with sands of various silt contents, relative densities, stress states, OCR and water contents. This aims at investigating effects of various factors that affect strength and stiffness of sands. From the results in this study, it is found that the effect of OCR is significant for the intermediate stress-strain range from the initial to failure, while it may be ignored for the initial stiffness and peak strength. For the effect of water content, it is observed that the initial elastic modulus decreases with increasing water content at lower confining stress and relative density At higher confining stresses, the effect of water content Is found to become small.

The plastic strain ratio is one of the factors that affect the deep drawability of metal sheets. The plastic strain ratio of fully annealed Cu sheet is low because its texture has {001}<100>. In order to improve the deep drawability of Cu sheet, it is necessary to increase the plastic strain ratio of Cu sheet. This study investigate the increase of plastic strain ratio of a Cu sheet after the first asymmetry rolling and annealing, and the second asymmetry rolling and annealing in air and Ar gas conditions. The average plastic strain ratio (R_m) was 0.951 and |ΔR| value was 1.27 in the initial Cu sheet. After the second 30.1% asymmetric rolling and annealing of Cu sheet at 1000℃ in air condition, the average plastic strain ratio (R_m) was 1.03 times higher. However, |ΔR| was 0.12 times lower than that of the initial specimen. After the second 18.8% asymmetric rolling and annealing of Cu sheet at 630℃ in Ar gas condition, the average plastic strain ratio (R_m) was 1.68 times higher and |ΔR| was 0.82 times lower than that of the initial specimen. These results are attributed to the change of the texture of Cu sheet due to the different annealing conditions.

The physical and mechanical properties and formability of sheet metals depend on preferred crystallographic orientations (texture). In this research work, the texture development and formability (plastic strain ratios) of AA1050 Al alloy sheets after 3 and 10 passes of asymmetric rolling and subsequent heat treatment were investigated. The plastic strain ratios of 10 passes asymmetrically rolled and subsequent heat treated samples are 1.3 times higher than those of the initial AA1050 Al alloy sheets. The ${\Delta}r$ of 10 passes of asymmetrically rolled and subsequent heat treated samples is 1/30 times lower than those of the initial AA1050 Al alloy sheets. The plastic strain ratios of 10 passes of asymmetrically rolled and subsequent heat treated Al sheets are higher than those of 3 passes ones. These results could be attributed to the formation of $\gamma$-fiber, ND//<111>, and the other texture components by means of asymmetric rolling in Al sheets.

A study on the microstructure, the texture and the formability of the samples after ECAPed and subsequent heat-treated AA 1050 aluminum alloy sheet have been carried out. The specimens after the ECAP showed a very fine grain size, a decrease of <100> // ND. The <110>// ND textures appears in the specimens after the ECAP and subsequent heat-treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. One of the most important properties in sheet metals is formability. The r-value or plastic strain ratio has was as a parameter that expressed the formability of sheet metals. The change of the plastic Strain ratios after the ECAP and subsequent heat-treatment conditions were investigated and it was found that they were two times higher than those of the initial Al sheets. This could be attributed to the formation above texture components through the ECAP and subsequent heat-treatment of AA 1050 Aluminum alloy sheet.

The plastic strain ratio is one of the factors of the deep drawability of metal sheets. The plastic strain ratio of Al sheet is low value. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the plastic strain ratio in order to improve the deep drawability of the Al sheet. This study investigated the increase in the plastic strain ratio and the texture change of AA1050 Al sheet after the hot asymmetric rolling. The average plastic strain ratio of initial AA1050 Al sheets was 0.41. After 84% hot asymmetric rolling at $400^{\circ}C$, the average plastic strain ratio was 0.77. The average plastic strain ratio of 84% hot asymmetrically rolled AA1050 Al sheet at $400^{\circ}C$ is 1.9 times higher than that of initial AA1050 Al sheet. The ${\mid}{\Delta}R{\mid}$ of 84% hot asymmetrically rolled AA1050 Al sheet at $400^{\circ}C$ is 1/2 times lower than that of initial AA1050 Al sheet. This result is due to the development of the intensity of the ${\gamma}-fiber$ texture and the decrease of the intensity of {001}<100> texture after the hot asymmetric rolling of AA1050 Al sheet.
