To evaluate the vertical loads on railway bridges, conventional load tests are typically conducted. However, these tests often entail significant costs and procedural challenges. Railway conditions involve nearly identical load profiles due to standardized rail systems, which may appear straightforward in terms of load conditions. Nevertheless, this study aims to validate load tests conducted under operational train conditions by comparing the results with those obtained from conventional load tests. Additionally, static and dynamic structural behaviors are extracted from the measurement data for evaluation. To ensure the reliability of load testing, this research demonstrates feasibility through comparisons of existing measurement data with sensor attachment locations, train speeds, responses between different rail lines, tendency analysis, selection of impact coefficients, and analysis of natural frequencies. This study applies to the Dongho Railway Bridge and verifies the applicability of the proposed method. Ten operational trains and 44 sensors were deployed on the bridge to measure deformations and deflections during load test intervals, which were then compared with theoretical values. The analysis results indicate good symmetry and overlap of loads, as well as a favorable comparison between static and dynamic load test results. The maximum measured impact coefficient (0.092) was found to be lower than the theoretical impact coefficient (0.327), and the impact influence from live loads was deemed acceptable. The measured natural frequencies approximated the theoretical values, with an average of 2.393Hz compared to the calculated value of 2.415Hz. Based on these results, this paper demonstrates that for evaluating vertical loads, it is possible to measure deformations and deflections of truss railway bridges through load tests under operational train conditions without traffic control, enabling the calculation of response factors for stress adjustments.

Aging effect of sands showed insignificant result in comparison with that of clay, so that it has not been studied so far. But, as penetration resistance increase has been observed with the lapse of time after deposition and disturbance, aging effect of sands has been actively investigated by field tests, and recently many researchers are performing not oかy field tests but also laboratory tests on sands, so aging effects of sands have been also examined by laboratory tests. In this study, to observe the aging effect of undrained static shear behavior for Nak-Dong River sand, undrained static triaxial tests were performed with changing relative density$(D_r)$, consolidation stress ratio$(K_c)$, and consolidation time. These tests showed that modulus within elastic section increased as consolidation time increased, and in addition, phase transformation point strength$(S_{PT})$ and critical stress ratio point strength $(S_{CSR})$ also increased. But pore water pressure ratio$(u/{p_c}')$ decreased as consolidation time increased, so with this various result, aging effect of static shear for sands can be observed as well.

Dynamic shear modulus of the compacted clayey soil was determined by the resonant column test to study the parametric effects of confining pressure, shear strain amplitude, molding water content, compaction energy, void ratio and the degree of saturation. The effect of each of these parameters on the dynamic shear modulus found to be significant and can be explained in terms of the changes in soil by compaction. Dynamic shear modulus of the compacted soil is increased significantly by compaction and compaction at the dry side of the optimum moisture content is much more effective. It is also found that the dynamic shear modulus showes a good correlation to the static shear strength of the compacted soil. Therefore the dynamic shear modulus of the compacted soil for a certain confining pressure may be obtained ea8i1y from the unconfined compression strength.

The moduli of concrete has been determined by various testing methods. The impact resonance (IR) method has been shown to be truly a simple nondestructive testing method which produces consistent results. It is possible to determine not only the modulus but also damping ratio from the IR test. However, the values of elastic modulus and damping ratio of concrete from the test is known to be affected by various test conditions including, specimen support condition, impact steel ball size and sampling rate. In this study, the optimum IR test conditions are suggested and validated experimentally. The test results showed that the recommended test conditions yielded a variation of resonant frequency within ${\pm}0.3%$ and damping ratio ${\pm}10.0%$. In addition, the modulus from the IR test was comparable to that from a static test when the effect of strain amplitude was properly taken into account.

This study evaluates the dynamic tensile behavior of HPFRCC according to compressive strength levels of 100, 140 and 180 MPa. Firstly, the compressive stress-strain relationship of 100, 140 and 180 MPa class HPFRCC was analyzed. As a result, the compressive strengths were 112, 150 and 202 MPa, respectively, and the elastic modulus increased with increasing compressive strength. The static tensile strengths of HPFRCC of 100, 140 and 180 MPa were 10.7, 11.5 and 16.5 MPa, and tensile strength also increased with increasing compressive strength. On the other hand, static tensile strength and energy absorption capacity at 100 and 140 MPa class HPFRCC showed no significant difference according to the compressive strength level. It was influenced by the specification of specimen and the arrangement of steel fiber. As a result of evaluating the dynamic impact tensile strength of HPFRCC, tensile strength and dynamic impact factor of all HPFRCCs tended to increase with increasing strain rate from 10-1/s to 150/s. In the same strain rate range, the DIF of the tensile strength was measured higher as the compressive strength of HPFRCC was lower. It is considered that HPFRCC of 100 MPa is the best in terms of efficiency. Therefore, it is advantageous to use HPFRCC with high compressive strength when a high level of tensile performance is required, and it is preferable to use HPFRCC close to the target compressive strength for more efficient approach at a high strain rate such as explosion.

충격에 민감한 용기나 기계들은 운반이나 보관중에 받을 수 있는 진동충격 을 완화시키기 위해 충격 마운트를 이용하게 되며, 충격마운트는 용기나 기 계들이 허용하는 최대가속도와 이들이 취급되는 환경에 의해 적절히 선정되 어야 한다. 그러므로 내충격 설계는 최대 허용 가속도나 취급환경에 대한 사 양과 이 사양에 의한 충격 마운트의 선정, 그리고 선정된 내충격 시스템의 충격시험에 의한 오일 탬퍼의 결합용이 사용되기도 하지만 구조가 복잡하고 가격이 비싸서 대용량이 경우에만 국한되어 사용되고 있으며, 가장 경제적인 것은 방진고무를 사용한 것이다. 내충격 시스템은 일반적으로 큰 변형량을 요구하고 있으며, 방진고무의 경우 큰 변형에서는 hardening 스프링의 비선 형성을 가지고, 형상계수와 고무배합율에 따라 정적 스프링상수와 동적 스프 링상수가 큰 차이를 보이는 등, 설계상의 여러 제한이 있다. 그러나 방진고 무는 형상변화가 자유로우며 제작이 용이하기 때문에 이러한 장점을 이용하 면 저렴하고 다양한 용도의 충격마운트 제작에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 원통형 콘테이너의 내충격 설계를 위해 충격사양에 의한 충 격마운트의 설계, 설계된 내충격 시스템의 충격시험에 의한 검증을 순차적으 로 실시하여, 방진고무를 이용한 충격마운트 설계기술을 제시함으로써, 이후 방진고무제품의 설계를 위한 자료 및 과정의 제정에 도움을 주고자 한다.

A methodology is described for predicting the fatigue life of the resistance spot weldment including strain rate effect. Because it is difficult to perform a physical failure test with high strain rate, an analytical method is necessary to get the mechanical properties of various strain rate, To this end, quasi-static tensile-shear tests at several strain rate were performed on spot weldments of SPC. These test provided the empirical data with the strain rate. With these results, we formulated the function of fatigue life prediction using the lethargy coefficient which is the global material property from tensile test. And, we predicted the fatigue life of spot weldment at dynamic strain rate. To confirm this method for fatigue life prediction, analytical results were compared with the experimental fatigue data.

In this study, the direct tensile properties of amorphous metallic fiber-reinforced cement based composites according to the strain was evaluated. A thin plate-shape amorphous metallic fiber with 15mm and 30mm in length was used. And fiber-reinforced cement based composites were prepared with contents of 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%. The direct tensile test was conducted under the conditions of $10^{-6}/s(static)$ and $10^1/s(dynamic)$ strain rate. As a results, amorphous metallic fiber with a length of 15mm was observed in pull-out behavior from the cement matrix because of the short fiber length and large portion of mixed fiber. On the other hand, amorphous metallic fiber with a length of 30mm were not pulled out from matrix because the bonding force between the fiber and matrix was large due to rough surface and large specific surface area. However, fracture occurred because thin plate shape fibers were vulnerable to shear force. Tensile strength, strain capacity and toughness were improved due to the increase in the fiber length. The dynamic increase factor of L15 was larger that of L30 because the bonding performance of the fiber-matrix interface is significantly affected by the strain rate.
