A study of adiabatic shear band formation and propagation of 4340 steel was done using the stepped speciment which was subjected to high velocity impact. The high velocity impact was performed on compression Hopkinson bar impact machine. After the controlled impact, the specimen was prepared for visual inspection. Numerical simulation was also performed with same geometrical dimension using explicit time integration finite element code. Experimental results were then compared with the numerical prediction. It was found that the numerical prediction is quite accurate, average thickness of adiabatic shear band is about $10{\mu}m$, the macro crack around shoulder is due to folding, and the deformation control ring is effective to freeze the propagation of adiabatic shear band.

The factor of safety (FOS) is commonly used as an index to quantitatively state the degree of safety of various rock structures. Therefore it is important to understand the definition and characteristics of the adopted FOS because the calculated FOS may be different according to the definition of FOS even if it is estimated under the same stress condition. In this study, four local factors of safety based on maximum shear stress, maximum shear strength, stress invariants, and maximum principal stress were defined using the Mohr-Coulomb and Hoek-Brown failure criteria. Then, the variation characteristics of each FOS along five stress paths were investigated. It is shown that the local FOS based on the shear strength, which is widely used in the stability analysis of rock structures, results in a higher FOS value than those based on the maximum principal stress and the stress invariants. This result implies that the local FOS based on the maximum shear stress or the stress invariants is more necessary than the local FOS based on the shear strength when the conservative rock mechanics design is required. In addition, it is shown that the maximum principal stresses at failure may reveal a large difference depending on the stress path.

In a previous proteomic study, heat shock protein beta 1 (HSPB1) was detected as differentially expressed protein in longissimus thoracis between low (grade 3) and high (grade 1++) meat quality groups by 2DE gel electrophoresis. The present study investigated an association of HSPB1 expression at the level of gene and protein with Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBS) measured in 20 Hanwoo steers. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) between expression values and WBS showed that WBS was affected by HSPB1 expression (p<0.05). The expression (at both gene and protein level) of the HSPB1 was 2 times higher in the low WBS group than that in the high WBS group (p<0.01). This result suggests that the HSPB1 gene may be a candidate gene associated with tenderness in longissimus thoracis of Korean cattle.

자연하천은 일반적으로 만곡수로나 사행수로 형태를 보이고 있으며, 직선수로에서와 달리 원심력에 기인한 이차류 영향을 받게 된다. 이차류에 의해서 수면에서는 만곡부 바깥쪽으로, 하상에서는 만곡부 안쪽으로의 흐름특성을 보이게 된다. 만곡부 안쪽으로 가해지는 하상 전단응력에 기인하여 하상에서의 입자가 만곡부 안쪽으로 이송되며, 결과적으로 만곡부 안쪽에는 점사주가, 바깥쪽에는 소(pool)가 생성된다. 또한 지형경사의 생성으로 입자에 가해지는 중력효과도 변화된다. 따라서 이와 같은 자연하천의 흐름과 하상변동을 수치모의 하기 위해서는 만곡부 이차류 특성을 고려한 모형이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 수심 적분된 흐름방정식과 하상토 보존방정식 (Exner equation)을 이용한 하상변동을 위한 비연계 수치모형을 위해서 하상토 보존방정식의 유한요소 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 하상토 보존방정식은 흐름 특성에 따른 평형 유사량의 공간변화율을 이용하여 일정 기간 동안의 하상 변화량을 계산한다. 이 때 이차류에 의한 하상 전단응력의 편각 및 지형경사 변화에 따른 실제 입자의 이송방향을 보정하여 평형 유사량이 계산된다. 이러한 보정식을 적용시키기 위해서는 유속성분의 공간변화량 및 지형경사의 공간성분이 필요하다. 유한요소법은 연속성 변수를 이산화시켜 근사해를 구하는 수치기법의 일종이기 때문에, 요소망이 불규칙적으로 구성되었을 경우 임의의 절점에서 연속성을 지닌 변수의 공간변화율을 계산하는데 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 평형 유사량 계산 시에 절점이 아닌 요소 내부에서 평형 유사량을 계산하는, 하상토 보존방정식의 새로운 유한요소 알고리즘을 개발하고, 새로운 알고리즘을 적용시킨 수치모형의 검증을 행하였다. 경계조건 알고리즘의 검증으로 위해서 Soni 등 (1980)이 행한 상류 유입 유사량에 따른 하상변동을 수치 모의하고 실험치와 비교하였으며, Sutmuller와 Glerum (1980)이 수행한 만곡수로에서의 하상변동을 모의하고 실험과 비교하였다. 새로운 알고리즘을 적용시킨 하상토 보존방정식의 유한요소 수치모형의 결과는 매우 안정적이며, 실험과 매우 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 수치모델은 현재 균일한 입자의 하상토만을 고려하므로, 입자분급이나 하상 장갑화 현상 등은 무시한다.

This paper presents the failure mode and strengthening design of reinforced concrete slab strengthened with Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer(CFRP) grid. Parameters involved in this experimental study are FRP grid reinforcement quantity, repair mortar thickness, the presence of anchor, and strengthening in compression. In this study, there are different failure types with increasing the CFRP grid strengthening reinforcement. On the low strengthening level, CFRP grid in repair mortar cover ruptures. On the moderate strengthening level, there is a debonding shear failure in the interface of carbon FRP grid because of the excessive shear deformation. On the high strengthening level, diagonal shear failure occurs. With the increasing of FRP grid reinforcement, the strengthening effect increased, but the ductility decreased. By limiting the strengthening level, it can be achieved to prevent shear failure which result in sudden loss in the resisting load capacity. CFRP rupture failure is desirable, because CFRP ruptured concrete slab keeps the same load capacity and ductility haying before strengthening even after failure. Finally, design guideline and procedure are given for strengthening of concrete slab with CFRP grid.

하천 내 식생은 수리학, 지형학 및 생태학적으로 매우 중요하다. 식생은 하천 수생물들의 서식처를 제공할 뿐만 아니라 필터와 같은 역할을 함으로써 부유사에 의한 하천오염물의 퇴적을 유발하여 하천의 수질을 개선시킨다. 더욱이, 하천 내 흐름 및 난류구조를 변경시킴으로써 식생주변의 유사 퇴적량 및 분포에 크게 영향을 미치고, 결국 하천의 지형을 변화시킨다. 개수로의 식생에 대한 영향은 주로 실험 및 수치모델을 이용하여 연구되었고 전단면이 식재된 조건에서 식생의 항력계수, 식생역내의 부유사 및 확산에 관한 연구가 진행되어왔다. 이러한 연구를 통해 식생역 내의 전단력이 감소하여 부유사퇴적이 증가하고 식생역과 비식생역 사이의 운동량 교환에 의해 부유사 퇴적이 증가함을 보였다. 그러나 개수로에서 존재하는 유한한 크기의 식생에 의한 흐름 및 유사분포에 관한 연구는 아직 미흡하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 침수하지 않은 원형 식생 주변에서 발생하는 흐름특성을 수치모의 하였다. 침수하지 않은 원형식생 하류에서 발생하는 흐름을 계산하기 위해 2차원 수치모형을 적용하였다. 식생에 의한 저항을 고려하기 위해 운동량 방정식에 식생항을 추가하였고 $k-{\varepsilon}$ 난류모형을 적용하였다. 수치모의 조건은 Zong and Nepf (2012)의 수리실험을 참고하여 수로의 길이는 12 m, 폭은 1.2 m로 설정하였다. 0.13 m 수심을 갖는 개수로에 0.22 m 지름을 갖는 원형식생을 상류경계로부터 1.0 m 떨어진 곳에 설정하였다. 식생의 밀도($6{\sim}77m^{-1}$)를 변화시키면서 원형식생 하류의 흐름거동을 분석하였다. 식생밀도가 높은 경우에는 원형식생 양 측면에서 유발된 전단층들의 상호작용에 의해 하류에서 와류가 발생하였다. 와류가 발생하는 위치에서 난류강도가 가장 크게 나타났다. 그러나 식생밀도가 일정 값보다 낮아지면 와류가 발생하지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

The effects of directional fracture tensor components and first invariant of fracture tensor on deformation moduli and shear moduli of fractured rock masses is analyzed based on regression analysis performed between 3-D fracture tensor parameters and deformability of DFN blocks. Using one or two deterministic joint sets, a total of 224 3-D discrete fracture network (DFN) cube blocks were generated with various configurations of deterministic density and probabilistic size distribution. The fracture tensor parameters were calculated for each generated DFN systems. Also, deformability moduli with respect to three perpendicular direction of the DFN cube blocks were estimated based on distinct element method. The larger the first invariant of fracture tensor, the smaller the values for the deformability moduli of the DFN blocks. These deformability properties present an asymptotic pattern above the certain threshold. It is found that power-law function describes the relationship between the directional deformability moduli and the corresponding fracture tensor components estimated in same direction.

It is well known all much information for evaluation on possibility of liquefaction and lateral flow for sand over the world. Recently, it is started to be known that liquefaction happens on non-plastic silt, too. But cyclic and post-cyclic characteristics for non-plastic silt is a few familiar to the world. Specially, it is not aware of the estimating method for lateral flow on non-plastic silt. The main purpose in this paper is to propose the evaluation for liquefaction and lateral flow on non-plastic silt. The method used in this research is that possibility for liquefaction on non-plastic silt was evaluated with cyclic direct simple shear test, and then residental strength was estimated with static shear test. Through the test results liquefaction on non-plastic silt is well not happened but strength decreases rapidly with increasing shear stress. With the proposed method it can be evaluated possibility of liquefaction and propose lateral flow.

In the present, the formation of shear band under a simple shear deformation is investigated using a rate-independent elastic-plastic constitutive relations. Moreover, the strain gradient terms are incorporated to obtain a non-local plastic constitutive relation, which in turn represented using combined two-back stress hardening model. Then, the continuum damage model is also included to the proposed model. The post-localization behavior are studied by introducing a small imperfection in a work piece. The strain gradient affects the shear localization significantly such that the intensity of shear band decreases as the strain gradient coefficient increases when the J2 flow theory is employed.

Some methods were proposed to predict lateral flow due to embankments for road constructions on soft grounds, in which vertical drains were placed. In order to investigate the prediction methods of lateral flow, 200 field monitoring data for embankments in thirteen road construction sites at western and southern coastal areas of the Korean Peninsula were analyzed. For analyzing the relationship between the safety factor of embankment slope and the horizontal displacement in soft grounds where horizontal drain mats were placed, it was reliable to apply the maximum horizontal displacement in soft ground instead of the horizontal displacement at ground surface. The maximum horizontal displacement was developed less than 50mm in fields where the safety factor of slope was more than 1.4, while the one was developed more than 100mm in fields where the safety factor of slope was less than 1.2. In safe fields where the maximum horizontal displacement were developed within 50mm, lateral flow would not happen since shear deformation was not appeared. On the other hand, shear failure would happen in the fields where the maximum horizontal displacement were developed more than 100mm. In such fields, embankments might be continued after some appropriate countermeasures should be prepared. Safe embankments can be performed on soft grounds, in which the stability number is less than 3.0 and the safety factor for bearing is more than 1.7. However, if the stability number is more than 4.3 and the safety factor for bearing is less than 1.2, shear deformation would begin and even shear failure would happen.
