To evaluate the proposed shear strength models developed in a companion paper, the shear strengths of test specimens strengthened with FRP were predicted by ACl specification, and elsewhere. The advantage and disadvantage of the models were investigated by the comparisons with the test results. The characteristics and limitations of the existing model were investigated with respect to FRP types, strengthening methods, shear span to depth ratio and effective strength of FRP. The results of this parametric study showed that the proposed shear strength model is more accurate than other models.

When carrying out design for soft ground improvement before reclamation of dredged soil, it is very important to appropriately evaluate design parameters such as compression index and undrained strength in order to estimate optimum construction cost. In this study, consolidation and strength parameters were estimated by the samples obtained from the similar reclaimed land. Water content and compression index of dredged soil reclaimed by hydraulic fill method were quite decreased in comparison with those of in-situ conditions at Incheon site. Relationships between compression index(Cc) and water content (wn), and between undrained strength (su) and water content (wn) for dredged soil were obtained by field vane test and oedometer test, respectively. Applicability of Schmertmann correction method (compression index) for low plasticity silty soil was discussed according to comparison with designed and measured settlements.

Under earthquake loads, the columns on the lower stories carry large axial forces and horizontal forces as the earthquake loads are acting horizontally and vertically on the building. To distribute the energy entered into the building under earthquakes according to the plastic deformation of the members, it is safer and more economic to persuade plastic hinge to occur in the beams rather than on the columns. However, it is unavoidable to have plastic hinge occurring on the columns when it is applied on both of the main axes of the building, which results in high shear force on the column end, and reinforced concrete column may result in sudden brittle failure due to bending moment and shear force. To increase restriction of the reinforced concrete column on the horizontal forces, this study uses repetitive loading experiments with different amount of shear reinforcement, and analyzes and compares the structural safety and behaviour of the reinforced test materials.

Natural river channels usually have a deep section and one or two floodplains, which is called a compound channel. As the general method in the compound channel overestimates the discharge capacity, the momentum transfer due to interaction between the main channel flow and flow over its floodplain must be considered. Scale model experiments are performed for the rectangular main channel with an asymmetrical floodplain. Firstly, velocities are measured at various section grids. Secondary, boundary shear stresses are calculated from velocity distributions. Lastly, in order to determine the apparent shear force, the shear stress distributions are integrated along the wetted perimeter for the full cross-section and equated to the total weight force in the flow direction. The hydraulic characteristics in a compound channel are closely examined with the scales of length, velocity, boundary shear stress, and apparent shear force which are described with the various relationships.

Nickel bumps for ACF(anisotropic conductive film) flip chip application were fabricated by electroless and electro plating and their mechanical properties and impact reliability were examined through the compressive test, bump shear test and drop test. Stress-displacement curves were obtained from the load-displacement data in the compressive test using nano-indenter. Electroplated nickel bumps showed much lower elastic stress limits (70MPa) and elastic moduli ($7.8{\times}10^{-4}MPa/nm$) than electroless plated nickel bumps ($600-800MPa,\;9.7{\times}10^{-3}MPa/nm$). In the bump shear test, the electroless plated nickel bumps were deformed little by the test blade and bounded off from the pad at a low shear load, whereas the electroplated nickel bumps allowed large amount of plastic deformation and higher shear load. Both electroless and electro plated nickel bumps bonded by ACF flip chip method showed high impact reliability in the drop impact test.

This paper investigates the mechanical characteristics of monofilament-reinforced bottom ash mixtures for recycling dredged soil. Reinforced bottom ash mixture is a lightweight soil added with monofilament in order to increase its shear strength. Test specimens were fabricated by various mixing conditions including monofilament content, its length and its diameter. Then several series of unconfined compression tests and direct shear tests were performed to investigate mechanical characteristics of reinforced lightweight soil. The experimental results indicated that stress-strain behaviors of reinforced lightweight soil were strongly influenced by mixing conditions of monofilament content, its length and diameter. The compressive strength of reinforced lightweight soil generally increased by adding monofilament. In this test, the maximum increase in compressive strength was obtained at 0.5% content and 4cm length of monofilament. These results were similar to those of direct shear tests. The unconfined compressive strength of reinforced lightweight soil with monofilament of 0.25mm in diameter was greater than that of reinforced lightweight soil with monofilament of 0.5mm in diameter.

The paper describes the quantitative determination of out-of-plane displacement from result of Shearogrpahy, which can measure the first-order partial derivative of out-of-plane displacement directly. However, the differential sensitivity of Shearography is related to the amount of shearing, which is manually adjustable in optical interferometer and affects the quantitative determination. The relationship between those is inspected by comparing ESPI with Shearography. From the result, the amount of shearing plays a modulation factor of out-of-plane displacement and small amount of shearing gives good agreement with out-of-plane displacement.

전단벽제 양단의 보강기둥은 비선형 휨거동에 주요 영향을 미치는 구조 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 전단 벽체에 일반적으로 사용되는 모델인 TVLEM에서, 수직 스프링 요소로 표현되는 보강기둥의 반복이력 모델을 제안하고 기존의 모델과 비교 검토하였다. 제안된 단순모델은 Vulcano의 모델 중 철근의 거동을 이중직선으로 가정하여 유도되었으며, 제안된 모델을 검증하기 위하여 Vulcano와 Kabeyasawa의 모델 사용시의 수치해석 값과 비교하였다. 비선형 해석은 자체 개발된 프로그램을 사용하였으며, Vallenas와 Bertero가 실험(1979)한 SP6의 모델에 대하여 수치해석을 수행하여 반복이력특성과 변위이력 및 발산에너지량을 비교하였다.

In recent years, shearogrpahy has significantly improved capabilities in the areas of unbond and separation detection in tires. Although shearography has many advantages for qualitative evaluation, the technique remains the problem of quantitative analysis of inside defects, because shearography needs several effective factors including the amount of shearing, shearing direction and induced load, which exist as barrier for the quantitative analysis of inside defects. Since the factors are highly dependent on inspectors skill and also affect the in-situ workability. The factors were optimized and the size of cracks inside of pipeline and tire has been quantitatively determined.
