A constitutive model unifying plasticity and crack damage mode)s was developed to address the cyclic behavior of reinforced concrete planar members. The stress of concrete in tension-compression was conceptually defined by the sum of the compressive stress developed by the strut-action of concrete and the tensile stresses developed by tensile cracking. The plasticity model with multiple failure criteria was used to describe the isotropic damage of compressive crushing affected by the anisotropic damage of tensile cracking. The concepts of the multiple fixed crack damage model and the plastic flow model of tensile cracking were used to describe the tensile stress-strain relationship of multi-directional cracks. This unified model can describe the behavioral characteristics of reinforced concrete in cyclic tension-compression conditions, i.e. multiple tensile crack orientations, progressively rotating crack damage, and compressive crushing of concrete. The proposed constitutive model was implemented to finite element analysis, and it was verified by comparison with existing experimental results from reinforced concrete shear panels and walls under cyclic load conditions.

In this paper deformation of micro-mechanical parameters such as tow interval, tow thickness and change in tow amplitude are investigated by using dry fabrics (Five-harness satin weave) under shear deformation. To evaluate the observation results according to the generated in-plane forces in the material, bias extension, biaxial test results are compared with. It was found that a picture frame test with a misaligned fibre orientation angle shows large differences in deformation between tensile and compressive tow directions.

본 연구에서는 반복하중을 받는 구리 나노와이어에서 나타나는 초탄성 거동을 분자동역학 전산모사를 통해 해석하였다. 나노스케일에서는 표면적 대 부피비가 매우 크기 때문에 표면효과가 지배적으로 나타난다. 이로 인해 벌크상태에서는 보이지 않던 새로운 성질들이 나노크기에서 나타나는데, 이러한 효과로 인해 나노와이어의 경우에는 초탄성 거동을 보인다. 초탄성 거동은 나노와이어의 결정학적 방향의 재배열에 의한 것으로써, 하중을 받는 동안 나노와이어의 결정 구조는 변하지 않으며, 쌍정의 발생 및 쌍정계면의 전파에 의해 결정학적 방향이 재배열된다. 재배열에 의해 부분적으로 변형되었던 나노와이어는 하중을 제거하거나 하중의 방향이 바뀜에 따라 원래의 상태를 회복하는 거동을 보이게 된다. 본 연구에서는 분자 동역학 전산 모사를 통해 <100>/{100} 구리 나노와이어가 반복적인 압축-인장 거동 하에서 초탄성을 보이게 됨을 확인하였으며, 반복 하중 싸이클을 증가시키는 전산모사를 통해 나노와이어의 초탄성이 영구적으로 유지됨을 확인하였다.

The objective of this paper is to evaluate the flexural tensile strength of unreinforced concrete masonry wall to ensure the structural safety in out-of-plane behaviors under the wind or earthquake loads. Flexural tensile strength of unreinforced concrete masonry wall has been obtained from the full scale tests of total 327 specimens and the statistical analysis are performed for each of the cases. The flexural tensile strength derived from experiments is classified as 13 groups according to masorny units, mortar ingredients, and the direction of tensile stresses and the mean tensile strength and the variable coefficient are obtained for each case. The uniform and concentrated transverse loads have been applied over the face of the wall specimens. The ultimate mean flexural tensile strengths are distributed from 1,564 kPa to 363 kPa according to masonry units, mortar ingredients, and other factors. The allowable flexural tension stress criteria will be established based on the mean flexural tensile strengths in the future.

This study is to clarify the comparative relationship and a mechanical anisotropy of rock on the subject of granite distributed in the Namwon area Uniaxial compressive and Brazilian strengths with respect to the horizontal and vertical axes of granite are shown the linear relation. In the case of the result of the p-wave velocity measurement. it is represented that the velocity of vortical direction is faster about 10 to 15% than other two horizontal directions. The difference between velocities is caused by a developmental pattern of microcracks distributed in rock. Moreover, this result is very consistent with the result investigated through thin sections. The proportion of uniaxial compression strength to Index of point load strength ($Is_{(50)}$) is 18~20 times in case of granite. Uniaxial compressive strength is relatively good relationship with point load strength, Schmidt hammer rebound value, and tensile strength point load strength of them is the best comparative relationship. It is indicated that point load test is the most useful tool to estimate uniaxial compressive strength, comparing with other experimental methods.

Austenitic stainless steels have excellent corrosion resistance, durability and fire resistance. Especially, since STS304L among austenitic types is a low-carbon variation of STS304 and has excellent intergranular corrosion resistance, it can often be used under the welded condition without heat treatment after field welding. This paper investigated ultimate behaviors such as ultimate strength and weld metal fracture mechanism of STS304L fillet-welded connections with TIG(tungsten inert gas) welding through test results. Main variables of specimens are weld length and welding direction against loading. Fracture of specimens are classified into three modes(tensile fracture, shear fracture and block shear fracture). Ultimate strengths were compared according to the welding direction and weld length and TFW series with transverse fillet weld had the highest strength compared with other types(LFW series with longitudinal fillet weld and FW series with all round weld). It is known that current design specifications such as KBC 2016 and AISC2010 underestimated the strength of TFW and LFW specimens and provided unconservative estimates for FW specimens. Finally, strength equations were proposed considering material properties of STS 304L material.

본 논문에서는 응력함수와 Kantorovich method를 이용하여 기저판(substrate)에 인장과 굽힘이 작용할 때 복합재 패치의 3차원 응력을 해석하였다. 면내 방향과 면외 방향의 두 응력함수에 가상 공액일의 법칙(Complementary virtual work principle)을 적용하였으며 복합재 패치의 자유 경계조건과 바닥의 기저판으로부터 전달되는 전단 수직 응력 조건을 부여하였다. 이를 통해서 패치 구조물의 지배방정식을 연립 미분 방정식 형태의 고유치 문제로 변환하여 응력함수를 구하였다. 위 방법의 타당성과 효용성을 검증하기 위한 수치 예제로 cross-ply, angle-ply, quasi-isotropic의 패치 적층 배열을 고려하였으며, 층간 응력함수 값이 자유 경계에서 최고치를 나타내고 패치 중심부로 갈수록 급격히 감소하는 모습을 확인하였다. 제안된 기법은 기저판에 인장하중이 작용하는 경우뿐만 아니라 굽힘 하중이 작용하는 경우에도 정확한 예측이 가능하여, 패치 구조물의 층간 응력을 포함한 3차원 응력을 해석하는데 있어서 효율적인 해석 도구로서 사용할 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

In the present study, the deformation capacity of slender shear walls with thin web subject to inelastic deformation after flexural yielding was studied. Web-crushing and rebar-fracture were considered as the governing failure mechanisms of walls. To address the effect of the longitudinal elongation on web-crushing and rebar-fracture, the longitudinal elongation was predicted by using truss model analysis. The failure criteria by web-crushing and rebar-fracture were defined as a function of the longitudinal elongation. The proposed method was applied to 17 shear wall specimens with boundary columns, and the prediction results were compared with the test results. The results showed that proposed method predicted the maximum deformations and failure modes of the wall specimens with reasonable precision.

Steel plates used for common structures are manufactured by rolling processes in general. The rolling direction traces generated during the processes have significant influences on mechanical properties and fatigue behavior of the plates. The objective of present study is to investigate those directional characteristics for the enhancement of steel structure safety. SS400 steel plates of 3 mm thickness are tested in this study, When the angles between the tensile loading direction and the rolling direction of the plates are increased, their yield strengths are increased and elongations are rather decreased. It is also shown that fatigue crack growth rates in the plates can be increased according to the changes of those mechanical characteristics. For the safety of the structures, therefore, it is critical to decrease the angles between the rolling direction and the tensile loading direction.

In this papers, an analytical model which can simulate the post-cracking behavior and tension stiffening effect in a reinforced concrete(RC) tension member is proposed. Unlike the classical approaches using the bond stress-slip relationship or the assumed bond stress distribution, the tension stiffening effect at post-cracking stage is quantified on the basis of polynomial strain distribution functions of steel and concrete, and its contribution is implemented into the reinforcing steel. The introduced model can be effectively used in constructing the stress-strain curve of concrete at post-cracking stage, and the loads carried by concrete and reinforcing steel along the member axis can be directly evaluated on the basis of the introduced model. In advance, the prediction of cracking loads and elongations of reinforced steel using the introduced model shows good agreement with results from the previous analytical studies and experimental data.
