In this study, direct shear tests were carried out on the 30 rock joint samples in order to investigate the influence of roughness and normal stress on the shear behaviour. Joint roughness profiles were measured by use of 3D laser profiler, and then the samples were equally classified into three individual groups according to the roughness index of rock joints. Peak shear strength, residual shear strength, shear stiffness, dilation angle of rock joints were investigated in condition of five different constant normal load. Peak shear strength was increased as roughness index was increased, and the influence of roughness on strength was found to be more considerable in case of lower normal stress condition. Residual shear strength and shear stiffness were increased as roughness index and normal stress were increased. Finally dilation angle was decreased as normal stress was increased, but it was increased as roughness index was increased in the same normal stress condition.

차량의 제동에 의한 기존의 연구는 차량의 bounce와 pitch에 의한 차량의 거동특성에 따른 고려만이 이루어져 왔으며 교량의 수직방향 offset에 의한 고려는 이루어지지 않았다. 여기서 교량의 offset이란 교량의 주형과 상판 그리고 교좌부의 중심간에 수직방향 높이의 차이를 말하며, 차량의 제동이 발생할 때 이러한 offset에 의한 추가적인 휨거동이 발생하므로 이러한 offset을 고려하여야 한다. 아울러 고속철도와 같은 중차량의 경우에는 교각의 상대적인 강성에 의한 효과도 고려되어야 할 것이다.

According to the revision of the Housing Act in 2013, it has been possible to carry out an apartment remodeling project involving two to three floor vertical extension. The remodeling project with vertical extension requires foundation reinforcement because structural safety due to additional load and enhanced seismic criteria must be met. In this case, structural analysis is performed to analyze the load distributed to existing PC pile and reinforced additional pile. The vertical stiffness ($K_v$) of the pile is required for structural analysis, but the research on the 20~30 year old PC pile stiffness is very limited. In this paper, the stiffness of the PC pile in accordance with the change of diameter and length was analyzed by examining the results of 38 field pile load tests performed during the construction of the apartments in the 1990's. As a result of the analysis, the pile stiffness decreases with the increase of the length-diameter ratio (L/D). In addition, the results of on-site pile load test are compared with the coefficient 'a' for estimating pile stiffness proposed in Korea Highway Bridge Design Standard (2008) and the Pile Foundation Design Guideline of Korea Railroad Corporation (2012). It shows that 'a' obtained through the estimation of the literature is very similar to the field test results in the range of 10

Based on the virtual stiffness model, the stiffness of a grasped object is characterized. Differing from the previous investigations, the effect of grasp force on the stiffness of a grasp is formulated in terms of additional stiffness, which is called additional stiffness in this paper, and it is addressed how this term affects the stability of a grasp. In addition, a method of controlling the stiffness of a grasp is proposed and validated by experiments using a two-fingered robot hand.

This paper presents numerical analysis results for the lateral-torsional buckling (LTB) strength of steel I-girder bridges. Current Korean and AASHTO design specifications for LTB consider the buckling strength of a single girder with both its ends constrained. The I-girder bridges are composed of more than one girder, and the girders are interconnected with intermediate cross-beams or cross-frames. Therefore, it should be required to evaluate the effects of cross-beam stiffness and the interactionof girders on LTB strength. It is also necessary to consider the effects of transverse web stiffeners on LTB strength. By considering these parameters, a series of four-girder systemswere numerically modeled using 3D shell elements to estimate the LTB strength while considering initial imperfections and residual stresses.

In order to evaluate the characteristics of solid-solid contact interfaces, reflection or transmission techniques involving normal-incidence longitudinal waves are generally used. However, these normal-incidence techniques are of limited use in field applications such as in the inspection of welded parts. The oblique-incidence ultrasonic technique may be an alternative for overcoming these problems. However, in this technique, the mode conversion at the contact interfaces should be taken into account along with the normal and tangential interface stiffness. In this study, we have suggested a theoretical model for obliqueincidence ultrasonic waves at the contact interfaces and analyzed their reflection and transmission characteristics. Experimental results showed that the measured reflection coefficient and second harmonic wave agreed well with the suggested theoretical model. Consequently, the oblique-incidence technique can be a promising method for evaluating the characteristics of the contact interfaces.

In this study, Tridimensional Hybrid Isolation System(THIS) was proposed as a vibration isolator for traffic loads, combining vertical and horizontal isolation systems. Its efficacy in improving serviceability for vertical vibration was analytically evaluated. Firstly, for the analysis, the major vibration modes of the existing apartment were identified through eigenvalue analysis for the system and pulse response analysis for the bedroom slab using commercial structural analysis software. Subsequently, a 16-story model with horizontal, vertical and rotational degrees of freedom for each slab was numerically organized to represent the achieved modes. The dynamic analysis for the measured acceleration from an adjacent ground to high-speed railway was performed by state-space equations with the stiffness and damping ratio of THIS as variables. The result indicated that as the vertical period ratio increased, the threshold period ratio where the slab response started to be suppressed varied. Specifically, when the period ratio is greater than or equal to 5, the acceleration levels of all slabs decreased to approximately 70% or less compared to the non-isolated condition. On the other hand, it was ascertained that the influence of damping ratios on the response control of THIS is inconsequential in the analysis. Finally, the improvement in vertical vibration performance of THIS was evaluated according to design guidelines for floor vibration of AIJ, SCI and AISC. It was confirmed that, after the application of THIS, the residential performance criteria were met, whereas the non-isolated structure failed to satisfy them.

지반특성에 따라 지진발생시 면진구조물과 비면진 구조물의 응답특성이 어떠한가를 평가하기위해, 1940 El Centro 지진을 입력지진으로 하고, 면진구조물로는 가압경수형 원자로격납건물을 이용하여 수평(NS) 및 수직지진입력에 대한 시간이력해석을 수행하였다. 0.5Hz 수평면진 구조물의 경우 수평방향 가속도응답은 지반특성에 무관하게 거의 변화가 없으며, 또 2Hz 이상에서 비면진구조물의 수평지진가속도응답보다 현저히 낮은 가속도응답을 갖는다. 면진베어링의 수직방향 21Hz 고유진동수는 풍화암의 경우 수직방향 가속도응답에 영향을 주지 않으나. 경암의 경우 원자로지지점에서의 수직방향 가속도응답을 전반적으로 증가시킨다. 비면진 구조물의 경우 지반의 강성이 약할수록 가속도응답이 비교적 큰 폴라크레인위치에서 수평 및 수직방향 가속도응답이 감소되는 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 수직방향의 가속도응답이 크게 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.
