This study deals with the stress-strain-strain rate behaviour of overconsolidated clay. Consolidated-drained stress path tests were performed on the stress-time dependent condition. Stress history consists of rotation angle of stress path, overconsolidation ratio, and magnitude of length of recent stress path. Time history includes loading rate of recent and current stress path. Test results show that all influence factors have an increasing strain rate with time, and the strain rate varies with the change of the rotation angle of stress path. With the increase of overconsolidation ratio and loading rate of current stress path, the strain rate also increases. For the stress history, correlation between stress-strain and strain rate is indicated but the time history is not.

A new constitutive model is proposed for normally consolidated clays. A main skeleton of the proposed model is based on the concepts of the incremental stress-strain theory by Roscoe and Poorooshasb. The equation of the undrained stress path is formulated by introducing the new pore pressure parameter(C), which is the slope of the linear line in the plot of the normalized pore pressure against the stress ratio. Once the stress increment along the constant stress ratio path (followed by untrained stress path) is know, the volumetric strains are calculated from the linear characteristics between void ratio and logarithm of the mean normal stress for any stress ratio. Then the incremental shear strains are successfully predicted by applying the flow rule derived in the modified theory by Roscoe and Burland.

This paper describes an experimental study planned to examine the effects of important design variables which were used in the proposed equation by authors. Fourteen beams and slabs were designed with the variables, such as effective prestress, concrete strength, amount of tendons, amount of bonded reinforcements, loading type, and span/depth ratio. Then, deflections and tendon stresses were measured and compared according to the parametric variations of the selected variables. It was found that the tendon stress increment decreases as the level of effective prestress or the amount of unbonded tendons and bonded reinforcements increases. Also, the contributions of concrete strength, and loading type were observed to affect on the tendon stresses. However, the stress increments of unbonded tendon were minimal alt high values of span/depth in contrast with the ACI code.

Both shear and torsional moments apply shear stresses on cross-section of a member, which need to be considered in the design. But in the current Korean Building Code, the design equations for shear and torsional moments are expressed in terms of the sectional strength with different units, causing figures to be drawn separately in two axes. If the design equations are expressed in terms of stresses, then the stresses of shear and torsional moments can be added, allowing figures to be drawn in one axis for easy recognition of the design procedure and the final design results. Moreover, the current code's design equations for shear and torsional moments are considered separately with the intention of summing the area of stirrups with respect to unit length for shear moment ($A_{\upsilon}/s$) and torsional moment ($2A_t/s$). Since the size or type of vertical stirrups are predetermined in the design process, the design equations are expressed in terms of the spacing of stirrups rather than the $A_{\upsilon}/s$ and $2A_t/s$ terms, clarifying various design steps and a design process.

Among several types of element tests to predict soil behalf.iota in a laboratory, the torsion shear apparatus, in which the directions of principal stresses could be rotated during shearing, wra explained. In this study, this torsion shear apparatus was improved so as to be used in tests on clay specimens . And some undrained torsion shear tests u.ere performed on remolded specimens of Ko-consolidated clay to investigate the influence of reorientation of the principal stress directions on the stress-strain behavior The soil behavior by the torsion shear apparatus without torque was compared It.ith that by the conventional triaxial compression tests . The stress path, provided by both vertical loads and torque during torsion shear tests, has much effect on the stress-strain behavior, the pore pressure and the effective principal stress ratio . The rotation angle of the principal stress and the b-value were gradually increased with increasing shear strain, but converged to the values at failure.

본 논문에서는 표면효과와 비선형 탄성효과를 고려한 FCC 나노박막의 순차적 멀티스케일 해석 모델을 제시한다. 표면에서의 구성방정식은 표면응력과 표면탄성계수를 이용하여 선형으로 표시되며, 표면효과를 나타내기 위한 표면물성들은 EAM 포텐셜을 이용한 원자적 계산 방법으로 계산된다. 두께가 얇은 나노박막은 표면응력으로 인하여 면내 방향으로 수축 또는 인장의 변형이 발생하게 된다. 나노박막의 평형상태에서의 변형율은 두께가 얇은 박막의 경우 재료가 선형 탄성 영역을 벗어나는 값을 가지는 경우가 많으므로 나노박막의 해석시 벌크 영역의 비선형 탄성 효과를 고려해야 한다. 이러한 비선형 탄성 효과를 고려하기 위해 본 연구에서는 FCC 구조를 가지는 금속의 비선형 탄성 모델을 제시하고, EAM 포텐셜로 계산된 응력과 탄성 계수를 이용하여 매칭 기법을 통하여 비선형 탄성 모델의 계수들을 결정한다. 또한 Cauchy-Born Rule 모델과 분자동역학 전산모사를 통하여 본 연구에서 제안된 비선형 탄성 모델에 대한 검증을 수행한다.

본 논문은 부착식 PSC 텐던에 도입된 긴장응력이 종진동 메카니즘에 미치는 영향을 소개한다. 텐던의 종방향 변형과 비틀림 변형은 상호 연동하여 거동하고, 텐던에 도입된 긴장응력은 축강성과 비틀림 강성에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 텐던의 탄성파 속도는 도입된 긴장응력의 크기에 따라서 변한다. 실험적 검증을 위하여 도입 긴장응력이 다른 6개의 부착식 PSC 시험체에 대한 종진동 실험이 수행되었다. 실험결과로부터 도입 응력과 탄성파 속도와의 역학적 관계를 확인하였으며, 기존 문헌의 실험결과와 비교하였다.

기존의 Terzaghi 압밀이론은 상대적으로 연약토층이 두껍지 않고, 초기함수비가 낮으며 적은 유효응력의 증가가 예상되는 곳에 그 적용이 제한되어 있었다. 그 이유는 Therzaghi 압미이론 자체가 미소변형률과 선형적인 압축성 및 투수성등을 기본적인 가정사항으로 내포하고 있기 때문이다. 이러한 가정사항을 극복하고자 Gibson et al. 은 일차원 비선형 유한 변형률 압밀이론에 관한 엄밀해를 제시하였다. 이 이론은 기존의 많은 가정사항들을 극복하여 실제 현상에 더욱 부합하는 예측을 할 수 있는 장점이 있는 반면, 비선형적인 응력-변형 관계, 변형-투수계수 관계의 도입과 좌표변환 및 현장의 시고이력을 그대로 적용하는데 많은 어려움이 있는 것이 사실이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 비선형 유한형태를 압밀이론을 이용한 압밀현상 예측을 위하여, 비선형적인 응력-변형 관계, 변형-투수계수 관계에 관한 함수식을 구성하고 이를 포함하는 컴퓨터 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발 프로그램은 많은 폼과 모듈로 구성되어 있는데, 이러한 각각의 폼과 모듈은 GUI 기능의 극대화를 통해 복잡한 이론에 익숙하지 않은 실무자들이 쉽게 본 이론을 이용할 수 있도록 설계 되었다. 또한 개발프로그램은 다양한 하중단계 및 비선형적인 응력-변형 관계, 변형-투수계수 관계에 관한 회귀분석, 각 유효응력 단계별 상이한 비선형 계수 g와 λ를 적용할 수 있으며, 계산을 위한 전처리과정은 물론 계산된 결과를 위한 다양한 후처리과정이 모두 사용자 위주의 GUI 기능을 충분히 갖도록 설계되었다. 개발 프로그램의 검증을 위하여 실제 현장의 계측자료 및 기존 연구문헌상의 결과와 본 개발 프로그램의 예측결과를 비교.분석하였으며, 다양한 간극비 상태의 비선형 계수가 해석결과에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다.

This paper will present a simple approach (or predicting layer deformation of unbound pavement materials with stress-dependent material properties. The approach is based on an uncoupled formulation in which the resilient and deformation response of unbound materials are considered separately. As a result, an uncoupled approach incorporating a resilient stiffness and Poisson's ratio model is able to simulate field measured deformation in pavement foundations. In addition, a sensitivity analysis is conducted to identify the significant factors in the stress-dependent modulus and Poison's ratio model. The predicted trends of deformation from this analysis are presented and discussed.

The purpose of this paper is to provide and verify an analytical method, based on the spline finite strip method, which can be used to investigate the buckling mode and stress of thin-walled steel sections. Geometric imperfection and initial stress of plates and plate assemblies, which are resulted from various preloadings and may cause prebuckling deformations before buckling, are included in the analysis. Material nonlinearity and residual stress are also considered. It can be applied to sections with simple or non-simple boundary conditions and arbitrary loading. The method has been applied to investigate the buckling behavior of plates and plate assemblies which are subjected to compression with initial imperfections and residual stresses.
