Variation of horizontal to vertical stress ratio of transversely isotropic rock caused by erosion was studied by numerical analysis. Influence of transversely isotropic was less than 5% for isotropic case. Difference between stresses obtained by numerical analysis and theoretical solution was small when initial stress ratio was small and the difference increased as erosion depth increased. Stress ratios diverged from initial ones as depth increased. An equation to determine stress ratio considering erosion according to the analyses was suggested.

This study is concerned with an application of the Boundary Element Method to 2-dimensional elastoplastic stress analysis on the material nonlinearities. The boundary integral formulation adopted an initial stress equation in the inelastic term. In order to determine the initial stress increment, the increment of initial elastic strain energy due to elastic increment in stressstrain curve was used as the convergence criterion during iterative process. For the validity of this procedure, the results of B.E.M. with constant elements and NISA with linear elements where compared on the thin plate with 2 edge v-notches under static tension and the thick cylinder under internal pressure. And this paper compared the results of using unmedical integral with the results of using semi-analytical integral on the plastic domain integral.

For a massive project related to building national industrial complexes on a soft ground applied to PVD after dredging and hydraulic fill, laboratory tests were carried out using undisturbed sample taken from various depth. Piezocone penetration and dissipation tests were carried out to assess horizontal coefficient of consolidation and initial stress in field. The ground consists of upper dredged fill and lower original clay layer having both similar marine clays. It should be, however, considered as multi-layered soft ground having different initial void ratio, initial water content, initial effective stress, and permeability and compressibility with directions. To assess initial stress of those soft layers in which have different stress history related to consolidation, CPTu test results, especially excess pore water pressure, were analyzed. It allows to find out distribution of excess pore water pressure and initial stress inner original clay layer.

The purpose of this paper is to provide and verify an analytical method, based on the spline finite strip method, which can be used to investigate the buckling mode and stress of thin-walled steel sections. Geometric imperfection and initial stress of plates and plate assemblies, which are resulted from various preloadings and may cause prebuckling deformations before buckling, are included in the analysis. Material nonlinearity and residual stress are also considered. It can be applied to sections with simple or non-simple boundary conditions and arbitrary loading. The method has been applied to investigate the buckling behavior of plates and plate assemblies which are subjected to compression with initial imperfections and residual stresses.

구조의 용접접합부에는 재료의 항복응력 크기의 용접잔류응력이 발생되고, 이 잔류응력 상태에서는 응력비(최소응력/최대응력)의 영향이 거의 없다는 것이 일정 진폭 하중조건의 피로실험결과로부터 알려져 있다. 이와 관련하여, 용접구조의 설계 단계에서는 초기 용접잔류응력이 그래도 잔류한 소형실험편의 일정진폭하중 상태의 피로실험 결과로부터 도출된 피로설계선도(S-N 선도)를 이용, 변동하중에 의한 응력 진폭의 밀도분포만으로 일생동안의 누적피해도를 구해 피로강도를 평가하는 것이 일 반적이다. 지금까지는 선박용접구조의 경우도 이러한 개념으로 피로강도 평가를 수행 하였으나, 일반적인 육상 또는 해상 용접구조물과는 달리, 화물의 적재 등의 정하중 이력에 의한 응력변동폭은 피로를 유발하는 파랑 응력변동폭보다 상당히 크다. 그리 고, 정하중에 의해 용접접합부에 인장응력을 발생시키는 하중이력을 받을 경우, 초기 용접잔류 응력은 상당히 저하될 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 인장응력을 유발하는 정하중 이력에 의해 저하된 용접잔류응력분포와 이러한 잔류응력분포를 가진 선측 종늑골 용접접합부의 피로강도를 검토한다.

A total of 18 stress measurements were performed in the rock and rock-like blocks in the laboratory to estimate the influence of anisotropy in rock. Full scale overcoring equipment, which consists of a coring machine and a biaxial loading system by flat jacks, was developed to simulate the in-situ rock stress condition in the laboratory By comparing the isotropic analysis with the anisotropic analysis in measuring the stress, conclusions have been drawn as to the influence of anisotropy. The maximum difference between the isotropic and the anisotropic analysis was 34% and it was shown that the stress measurement considering the anisotropy was needed. To confirm the validity of the observed data, a diagnostic analysis of stress relief curve by overcoring was conducted using the three dimensional finite difference program, FLAC 3D.

Laminated composite plates have shown their superiority over metals in applications requiring high specific strength, high specific modulus, and so on. Therefore, they have used in various industry. However, they have poor resistance to impact compared to typical metal materials. To resolve this problem by many researchers for a variety of studies have been attempted. This study investigates characteristic of impact behavior of laminated composite plates due to initial stress. Using finite element program which involved the indentation law, we investigate characteristic of impact behavior of laminated composite plates due to initial stress.

A series of analytical formula to compute settlements accounting for possible variations of initial effective stresses were derived. The comparison of computed values from conventional and newly-derived equations shows that computed settlements via the conventional equation unrealistically vary with the chosen number of layers in a clay stratum and also are 45~100% less than the value obtained from the newly-derived equation with exact mathematical integration.

Membrane structures, a kind of lightweight soft structural system, are used for spatial structures. The material property of the membrane has strong axial stiffness, but little bending stiffness. Therefore membrane structures are unstable structures initially. These soft structures need to be introduced initial stresses first because of its initial unstable state, and it happens large deformation phenomenon. To find the structural shape after large deformation caused by initial stiffness introduced, we need the shape analysis considering geometric nonlinearity in structural design procedure In this study, we analyze the soft spatial structures by the NASS which is the program for nonlinear analysis. The analytic model is a roof membrane structures of Barrel Vault-Type. We have done the shape analysis and the stress-deformation analysis considering the orthotropic material, and then study the safety.

본 연구는 무근 폴리에스터 폴리머 콘크리트보의 휨피로 거동을 구명키 위한 것으로서 초기균열깊이와 높이의 비 (a/h)를 0, 0.2, 0.4로 하고 응력수준을 45%, 55%, 65%로 하여 피로 시험을 실시한 것이다. 그 결과 초기균열깊이가 커질수록 피로수명이 짧아졌으며, 피로수명비에 따른 휨인장변형도는 균열깊이가 클수록 작아졌다. 또한 휨탄성계수는 피로수명비 0.2에서 0.6정도까지는 선형적인 변화를 보였으나, 초기와 말기에는 비선형적인 변화를 보여주었다. 그리고 응력수준과 균열깊이가 커질수록 취성적인 성질이 더 크게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.
