최근 에너지 산업에서 발생되는 대형사고의 원인은 소재의 복합적인 부식손상에 의한 것으로 구조물을 안정적으로 보호할 수 있는 고도의 방식설계기술 및 유지관리가 시급한 실정이다. 안정적인 에너지 자원공급과 환경오염을 방지하기 위해서는 사고원인에 대한 정밀검토를 실시하고 실제 환경을 고려한 적극적인 보호조치를 구축하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 해양구조물의 부식방지를 위한 방식시스템의 설계 최적화를 목표로, 해양환경 및 시스템 설계조건을 고려하여 방식성능을 평가하였다. 또한 이론 및 해석적 검토로 충족할 수 없는 비선형 물리현상을 만족시키기 위하여 실제 환경에서의 데이터를 활용한 시간 의존적 손상거동을 모델링함으로써 구조물의 유지보수 시기를 예측하고자 하였다.

In this paper, systematic analyses for the shoring systems installed to support applied loads during construction are performed on the basis of the numerical approach introduced in the previous study. Structural behaviors require changes in design variables such as types of shoring systems, shore stiffness and shore spacing. In this paper, the design variable are analyzed and discussed. The time dependent deformations of concrete and construction sequences of frame structures are also taken into account to minimize structural instability and to improve design of shoring system, because those effects may increase axial forces delivered to shores. From many parametric studies, it can be recommended that the most effective shoring system is 2SlR(two shores and one reshore)

Interfacial properties between rock mass and shotcrete play a significant role in the transmission of loads from the ground to shotcrete. These properties have a major effect on the behaviours of rock mass and shotcrete. They, however, have merely been considered in most of numerical analyses, and little care has been taken in identifying them. This paper aimed to identify interfacial properties including cohesion, tension, friction angle, shear stiffness, and normal stiffness, through direct shear tests as well as interface normal compression tests for shotcrete/rock cores obtained from a tunnel sidewall. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength and elastic modulus were also measured to compare them with the time-dependent variation of interfacial properties. Based on the experiments, interfacial properties between rock and shotcrete showed a significant time-dependent variation similar to those of its mechanical properties. In addition, the time-dependent behaviours of interfacial properties could be well regressed through exponential and logarithmic functions of time.

The structural behavior of concrete girder in bridges constructed by free cantilever method is time-dependent due to creep and shrinkage of concrete. The constraint effects of longitudinal movement of concrete girders can introduce unfavourable moment into piers. This study is aimed at proposing a method to reduce the moment of piers in bridge constructed by free cantilever method. The method are systematically composed of time-dependent structural analysis of bridges and loading of control force during construction of bridge. Numerical analyses are carried out depending on the parameters such as amount of control force and flexibility of pier. Time-dependent structural behavior shows that moment of pier increases according as pier height decreases. Also, moment of pier decreases when control method are applied. Numerical result of the study represents that time-dependent moment of piers can be controlled effectively by employing the proposed method.

Recently, building of long span bridge is increasing and cable stayed bridges have large portion in civil projects. As the spans of bridges become longer, steel cable-stayed bridges have been constructed mainly for slim structure. But in many case, pylons are constructed by concrete for the stability of structures and the economy. Concrete is greatly influenced by the long-term behavior like creep and drying shrinkage, so analysis of stress redistribution and structural change in construction is required. In this study, as a cable stayed bridge with concrete pylon, Incheon Bridge is analyzed by nonlinear FEM analysis program RCAHEST. Through this analysis, time dependent effect of concrete pylon to whole cable stayed bridge system is studied.

Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) have recently been highly used for repairing and strengthening civil structures due to their superior material properties. By using FRPs, external bond method is the most used method in the construction industry. Although many researches on reinforced concrete externally strengthened with FRPs have been conducted, time-dependant behaviors of the beams have not been investigated yet. This paper documents a series of beam experiments that were carried out to evaluate time-dependant behavior. Three RC beams were built and the parameters considered in this experiment were types of FRPs. Through these experiments, it was proved that the beam strengthened with CFRP was more effective than that with GFRP in terms of time-dependant behavior.

External bonding of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets has been widely accepted as a popular method for strengthening of deteriorated RC structures. The long-term behavior of CFRP-strengthened RC structure is often affected by that of the interface between CFRP sheets and concrete. This study aims at applying a viscoelastic model to describe the creep behaviour of the adhesive layer bonding CFRP sheet to concrete, the CFRP-concrete interface. Reviews of available models on concrete creep behavior have been first carried out and then new FE analysis model is proposed. The proposed FE analysis model based on the maxwell model has been verified by previous experimental results. It is shown that the creep effect of interfacial adhesive layer is very important on the long-term behavior of concrete structures strengthened with CFRP.

This paper deals with the development of simplified methods to predict the creep deformation of reinforced concrete beams. The layer approach based on a degenerate kernel of compliance function in form of Dirichlet series is mentioned and a simplified analytical method derived from the equilibrium equations and compatibility conditions is proposed to overcome the sophisticated calculation procedures in the classical creep analysis. Correlation studies between analytical and experimental results and design codes are conducted with the objective to establish the validity of the proposed methods. Besides, various parameter studies are conducted with the objective to identify the effects of cracking, steel ratio and sectional shape in the creep deformation and the obtained results are discussed.

Many studies on pervaporation (PV) for the separation of dilute alcohols as an alternative to conventional energy-intensive technique of distillation have been conducted earlier. The pervaporation transition behavior of ethanol-water mixtures through the PDMS/PSF membrane is important, in order to understand the mechanism of diffusion process. Therefore, in the present work, transient PV behavior for 50 wt% EtOH/H₂O mixture at 50℃ was investigated by using 1194 cm² PDMS/PSF hollow fiber membrane modules. The overall total flux and the separation factor of all the membrane modules increased initially and then gradually decreased with respect to PV time. The initial increase can be attributed to fact that membrane fibers were dry and it took time to dissolve into the membrane surface, but the subsequent decrease is due to the depletion of ethanol concentration in the feed. Therefore, it was confirmed that the ethanol permeation through a PDMS membrane is governed by the solution-diffusion mechanism.
