This paper explores the non-linear behavior of tapered beam subjected to a floating concentration load. For applying the Bernoulli-Euler beam theory to this beam, the bending moment at any point of elastical is obtained from the final equilibrium stage. By using the bending moment equation and the Bernoulli-Euler beam theory, the differential equations governing the elastica of simple beam are derived , and solved numberically . Three kinds of tapered beam types are considered . The numerical results of the non-linear behavior obtained in this study are agreed quite well to the results obtained from the laboratory-scale experiments.

To determine the residual stress, concentrated forces instead of distributed stresses, are assumed to be released around the hole drilled through. Concentrated forces are consisted with pairs of concentrated farces which have opposite directions and small distances. Residual stress determination on assumption of concentrated forces is compared numerically with normal method based on Kirsch's solution and proved to be available when released strains are measured at a little distance.

The purpose of the present study is to explore the effects of local reinforced type and to suggest reliable failure mechanism and the design criteria on the anchorage zones of the precast prestressed concrete bridges. To accomplish these objectives, a comprehensive experimental and analytical study has been conducted. From this study, the cracking and ultimate load capacities for spirally reinforced anchorage zone are found to be larger than those for orthogonal reinforced anchorage zone. This indicate the effectiveness of spiral reinforcement in controlling the cracking. And realistic failure mechanism and design criteria of prestressed anchorage zones based on the present study are suggested.

도시가스용 배관으로 사용하고 있는 폴리에틸렌 배관은 유연하여 시공이 용이할 뿐만 아니라 부식 및 전식이 일어나지 않아 유지관리가 편리하고 교체 없이 50년 이상 사용이 가능하여 금속 소재에 비하여 경제적이기 때문에 그 사용량이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 차량의 증가 등으로 인하여 매설된 배관에 많은 응력이 집중되고 있다. 따라서 토하중 뿐만 아니라 증가한 차량 등에 의한 하중이 복합적으로 작용할 경우에 매설된 배관이 어느 정도의 응력을 받고 있는지를 검토하고자 하였다. 직경이 $50{\sim}400mm$인 배관을 대상으로 매설깊이를 $0.6{\sim}1.2m$로 변화시키고 사용압력을 $0.4{\sim}4bar$로 변화시켜 그 결과를 검토하였다. 결과는 수식해와 유한요소 해석 방법을 이용하여 계산하였으며 두 결과를 비교하여 유한요소 해석 방법의 신뢰성을 높였다. 두 해석방법 모두 내압에 의한 영향, 토양하중에 의한 영향 그리고 차량 하중에 의한 영향을 각각 계산하였다. 그리고 각 하중이 복합적으로 작용할 경우에 대한 응력을 계산하여 매설 깊이에 따라 배관에 발생하는 응력을 계산하였다. 또한 가스배관 설계에 사용하는 허용응력을 4가지로 구분하여 발생한 응력과 비교하여 그 안전성을 검토하였다. 수식해와 유한요소 해석 결과를 비교하여 각각의 결과를 검증한 결과 수식해가 유한요소 결과보다 약간 높은 응력값을 나타내었으며 내압, 토하중, 차량하중 등이 복합적으로 작용할 경우에 매설깊이가 1m일 때 가장 낮은 원주방향응력이 발생하였다.

This study investigates elastic lateral-torsional buckling(LTB) of monosymmetric doubly stepped I-beams subjected to pure bending based on finite element analysis(FEA). The results from the FEA are used for new design stepped equation, Cst. The equations are compared with the results from the FEA. The comparison indicates that the new equation provides a good relation with the FEA results. The maximum difference between two results is of 11%. The new equation could be easily used to calculate the elastic lateral-torsional buckling moment resistance of monosymmetric stepped I-beams and to expand the new equation for developing LTB equations of monosymmetric stepped beams subjected to general loading conditions such as a concentrated load, distributed load, or a seres of concentrated load.

During concrete placement, the formwork structure supports the weight of concrete mass. The complexity of the operation can cause concentrated workloads, which in turn brings about a collapse of the temporary structure. As a countermeasure, the operation needs to be constantly monitored to maintain safety and prevent accidents. This paper presents a USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network)-based safety monitoring system for formwork construction. The system takes advantage of ubiquitous technology in monitoring the behavior of the formwork structure such as deflection, load weight, and tilting. The collected data are sent to the host computer wirelessly for real time monitoring. The data can be then compared with the allowed limits on guidelines. The comparison can indicate whether the concrete placement operation is executed in a safe condition.

Stress distributions dependent on fiber arrangements are studied using the two-dimensional representative volume element (RVE) model for uni-directionally continuous fiber-reinforced composites subjected to transverse tensile loading. It is easily expected that the stresses around the fibers are concentrated mainly due to the stiffness mismatch between the fiber and matrix materials. In this presentation, it is shown that the stresses are not always increased although the distance between two fibers is shortened. The 2D RVE models, originally having a regular hexagonal fiber array, is utilized to study the effect of the fiber locations on the stress distributions. As the central fiber is relocated, the stress distributions around the fiber are obtained through finite element analysis. It is found that the stresses around the fiber are strongly dependent on the fiber distance as well as the angle between the loading direction and the line connecting two fibers.

In this study, the influence of the presence of discontinuity planes on the load transfer mechanism and the pattern of loosening zone was studied based on the laboratory test. The trap-door and the reaction plates are installed as the bottom plane of the model box. The vertical discontinuity plane is installed in the dry sand. Various overburden heights and locations of discontinuity planes are applied as major factors in this study. The results show that at higher overburden heights over about 1.5 times the excavation width, the ratio of the transferred stress to the insitu stress converges to a certain value even if the overburden height increases further. The results also show that the discontinuity plane gives relatively larger influence on the load transfer mechanism, that produces the unsymmetrical load concentration, when the discontinuity plane locates within the tunnel width. When the discontinuity plane locates outside the tunnel width, the unsymmetrical load concentration is reduced considerably.

Concrete placement work is executed using temporary structures such as formwork, support, etc. The temporary structures could collapse when they are not properly supported, and need to be monitored for structural safety. This paper introduces a USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network)-based monitoring system that are being tested at the Pusan National University for increasing structural safety. The system takes advantage of ubiquitous technologies together with a variety of sensors, which allows for wireless transmission of construction monitoring data. The temporary structures are constantly monitored to find out whether the structures are being supported in a stable condition. A field test is being conducted to acquire data, and use them for evaluating the safety condition of the construction operation.

The wave load and its influence on the response of offshore structure have been well investigated through the statistical approach based on the linear theory. The linear approach has a limitation to apply the extreme condition such as extreme wave, which corresponds to extreme value of wave spectrum. The main topic of present study is to develop an efficient numerical method to predict wave load induced by extreme wave. As a numerical method, finite element method based on variational principle is adopted. The frequency-focusing method is applied to generate the extreme wave in the numerical wave tank. The wave load on the bottom mounted vertical cylinder is investigated. The hydroelastic response of the vertical cylinder is also investigated so as to compare the wave loads with the rigid body case in the extreme wave condition.
