Cracks occur in mass concrete structures during construction if temperature of the concrete due to heat of hydration is suddenly changed. The temperature is also changed after placement of mass concrete by construction environments on structures. However, methods which can analyze the temperature history of mass concrete considering the construction environments have not been developed yet. In this research, an algorithm and finite element analysis program is developed for the analysis of temperature rise history of mass concrete considering quantitatively heat transfer coefficient and construction environmental conditions such as climate conditions, curing conditions, forms and form removal, and additive curing. By comparing analysis results of the program with experimental data, other research data, and analysis results by a finite element program ADINAT, validity and accuracy of the program is verified.

The results of previous tests by many researchers have been compiled to evaluate the flexural strength of steel-fiber reinforced concrete beams. Existing prediction equations for flexural strength of such beams were examined, and a new equation based on mechanical and empirical observations, was proposed. In other words, the constitutive models for steel fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC) were proposed, which incorporate compressive and tensile strength. A steel model might also exhibit stain-hardening characteristics. Predictions based on the model are compared with the experimental data. For the collection of tests, a variation of the Henager equations, modified to apply to fiber-reinforced concrete beams, provided reliable estimates of flexural strength. The proposed equations accounted for the influence of fiber-volume fraction, fiber aspect ratio, concrete compressive strength and flexural steel reinforcement ratio. The proposed equations gave a good estimation for 129 flexural specimens evaluated.

An accurate knowledge of the flash point is important in developing appropriate preventive and control measures in industrial fire protection. The lower flash points for the n-propanol+formic acid system were measured by Pensky-Martens closed cup apparatus. This binary mixture exhibited MFPB (minimum flash point behavior), which leads to the minimum on the flash point vs composition curve. The Raoult's law and optimization method using Wilson equation were used to predict the lower flash points and were compared with experimental data. The calculated values based on the optimization method were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law.

Recently, studies on semi-rigid beam-to-column connections have been done to develop a T-stub element with separators between column face and T-stub flange. In this paper, inelastic analyses for the improved T-stub element are performed, and their results are compared with existing experimental results. The inelastic analyses using gap elements between column face and the separator, and initial stresses at the high-tension bolts result in good agreement with experimental results. Simplified design methods estimating the initial stiffness and the strength of the semi-rigid connection for compression force are proposed.

일반적으로 석출물의 석출은 핵생성(Nucleation)-성장(Growth)-조대화(Coarsening)의 단계를 거친다. 핵생성에 의해 생성된 개개의 핵들은 아직 열역학적으로 평형 상태가 아니다. 석출물의 부피 분율은 아직 상태도에서 예측할 수 있는 값까지 도달하지 못했다. 과포화된 기지에서 생성된 핵은 계속적으로 기지로부터 용질 원자를 공급받아 성장하게 된다. 석출물의 성장은 그 부피 분율이 상태도에서 예상되는 값에 도달할 때까지 계속된다. 시간에 따른 석출 분율 계산과 분산된 석출물들이 matrix내에서 어느 정도 용해도를 갖는다면, 보다 작은 크기의 입자들은 용해되어 보다 큰 입자로 석출(성장)하려는 경향이 있다. 이러한 현상의 구동력은 전체 시스템의 계면 에너지 감소에 의해 주어지며, 결국 하나의 큰 입자만이 존재하게 될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 석출분율을 계산하기 위해 상용프로그램인 Pandat을 통해 Mg-Al 2원계합금의 상태도 및 석출분율 계산을 위한 열역학 데이터를 계산하였다. 계산된 열역학 데이터는 C언어로 함수화 하여 입력하고 Excell을 통해 석출분율을 계산하였다. 계산된 석출분율과 실험값의 비교를 통해 fitting parameters를 대입하여 계산값 및 실험값의 오차율을 줄였다. 본 연구에서 계산된 석출분율은 미래의 석출상 크기 및 분포 등을 개발하는 기초데이터로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

최근 천연가스 개발의 중요성이 대두되면서 심해저 퇴적층에 존재하고 있는 천연가스 하이드레이트 개발에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 심해저 퇴적층에 부존하는 가스 하이드레이트 조건과 유사하게 하기위해 3 wt% 농도의 염수를 다공성 실리카 젤 기공에 넣어 사용하였다. 기공의 직경에 따른 영향을 알아보기 위해 기공 직경이 각각 6.0, 15.0, 30.0 nm인 실리카 젤을 사용하여, 천연가스 주성분인 에탄, 프로판, 메탄+프로판 하이드레이트의 3상 (H-Lw-V) 평형을 측정하였다. 그 결과 기공의 크기가 작아질수록 각각의 벌크 상태의 에탄, 프로판, 메탄+프로판 하이드레이트에 비해 하이드레이트의 평형조건이 온도는 낮아지고 압력이 높아지는 저해효과가 커짐을 알 수 있었다. 실험값으로 부터 기공 내의 물과 하이드레이트상 사이의 계면장력 값을 Gibbs-Thomson식에 의해 구할 수 있으며, 열역학 계산을 통하여 실험값과 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과는 심해저 천연가스 개발, 이산화탄소 심해저장 등의 가스 하이드레이트 응용 연구에 유용한 기초 자료가 될 것이다.

A panel method based on the raised panel approach is developed for the nonlinear ship wave problem of practical hull forms. For the validation of the present numerical scheme. the developed method is first applied to Series 60 hull for which the extensive experimental data are available. As practical applications. the developed method is applied to KRISO 3600 TEU container ship and KRISO 300K VLCC. With the primary emphasis on the nonlinear effects of the global wave pattern generated by the two commercial ships. the calculated wave patterns are compared and verified with the experiments of KRISO. It is found that the calculated results of the present method are quite satisfactory compared with the linear methods like Dawson's approach and Neumann-Kelvin solution.

The Np-237 fission cross-sections up to 20 MeV incident neutron energy are calculated by means of the computer code STAPRE- a statistical model code with consideration of preequilibrium decay. The higher chance fissions up to third compound nucleus are taken into account, and the main input parameters in the treatment of fission under consideration of a double-humped fission barrier are carefully adjusted, so that the current trend of experimental data can be fitted within an apparent deviation of about 10% throughout the entire energy range. Results are presented in the form of point-wise cross-section values, and also in the form of graph to demonstrate the shape agreement.

In the construction of nuclear power plants, only 420 MPa reinforcing bars are allowed and, therefore, so many large-diameter bars are placed, which results in steel congestion. Consequently, re-bar works are difficult and the quality of RC structures may be deteriorated. To solve the steel congestion, 550 MPa bars are necessary. Among many items for verifying structural performance of reinforced concrete with 550 MPa bars, the 43 mm hooked bars are examined in this study. All specimens failed by side-face blowout and the side cover explosively spalled at maximum loads. The bar force was initially transferred to the concrete primarily by bond along a straight portion. At the one third of maximum load, the bond reached a peak capacity and began to decline, while the hook bearing component rose rapidly. At failure, most load was resisted by the hook bearing. For confined specimens with hoops, the average value of test-to-prediction ratios by KCI code is 1.45. The modification factor of confining reinforcement which was not allowed for larger than 35 mm bars can be applied to 43 mm hooked bars. For specimens with 70 MPa concrete, the average value of test-to-prediction ratios by KCI code is 1.0 which is less than the values of the other specimens. The effects of concrete compressive strength should be reduced. An equation to predict anchorage capacity of hooked bars was developed from regression analysis including the effects of compressive strength of concrete, embedment length, side cover thickness, and transverse reinforcement index.

In this research, experimental seakeeping results of Warped hull form 2 on the regular waves were compared with numerical results of strip method and CFD. In case of ship's speed, there are 3 cases (3.4m/s, 4.6m/s, 5.75m/s) for numerical simulation, and they are belong to semi-planing and planing condition. Consequently, in case of strip method, it is shown that the resonance phenomena occurred from around ${\lambda}/L_{OA}=2$ to 4 and RAO value were significantly higher than that of other. this is different from experimental results. In case of CFD, overall trends were similar with experimental values except there are somewhat excessive RAO values around ${\lambda}/L_{OA}=0.5$ to 2.5. these phenomena is confirmed that it became larger as the ship's speed increased, and it was considered that the error occurred because the number of mesh in vertical direction of wave height at ${\lambda}/L_{OA}=0.5$ to 2.5 were relatively less than those of wave height at ${\lambda}/L_{OA}=2.5$ to 5.2.
