PCL, MDI, BD 및 DMPA를 이용, 폴리우레탄(PU)을 ionomer 및 nonionomergudxo 로 제조하였으며 이때 연질성분의 함량(SSC) 및 길이가 PU의 기계적, 동적기계적 특성은 물론 형상기억특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. Ionomer는 nonionomer에 비하여 경도, 탄 성율 및 강도가 모두 우수하였으며 그 효과는 실온에서 경질성분의 함량(HSC)이 높은 PU 일수록 보다 뚜렷하였는데 이는 HSC가 증가할수록 ion 중심의 농도가 증가하며 ion 중심간 의 Coulob 력이 고온보다 실온에서 보다 큰데 기인하는 것으로 해석하였다. 반복인장하중실 험에서 ionomer는 nonionomer에 비해 회복변형이 크고 잔류변형이 작았는데 이는 ionomer 의 고무탄성율이 보다 큰 데 기인한 것으로 해석하였다. 나아가 재료의 형상기억거동은 기 본적으로 탄성율의 온도의존성에 크게 의존함을 알수있었다.

This study introduces an elastic parabolic cable element for initial shaping analysis of cable-stayed bridges. First, an elastic catenary cable theory is shortly summarized by deriving the compatibility condition and the tangent stiffness matrices of the elastic catenary cable element. Next, the force-deformation relations and the tangent stiffness matrices of the elastic parabolic cable elements are derived from the assumption that sag configuration under self-weights is small. In addition the equivalent cable tension is defined in the chord-wise direction. Finally, to confirm the accuracy of this element, initial shaping analysis of cable-stayed bridges under dead loads is executed using TCUD in which stay cables are modeled by an elastic parabolic cable and an elastic catenary cable element, respectively. Resultantly it turns that unstrained lengths of stay cables, the equivalent cable tensions, and maximum tensions by the parabolic cable element are nearly the same as those by the catenary cable elements.

Shape memory stents are used for treating vascular conditions like myocardial infarction, angina, and arteriosclerosis through their shape memory behavior. These stents are inserted into blood vessels to expand them, and their performance in terms of flexibility, elastic recovery, and deformation is influenced by their design. In this study, parameters affecting stent structural design were analyzed using Taguchi method, aiming to design structures that consider flexibility, elastic recovery, and deformation. Reflecting the actual conditions faced by stents, ISO standards were incorporated, and finite element analysis was conducted, considering shape memory composite material properties obtained from tensile tests, specifically hyperealstic properties. Ultimately, statistical significance of stent structural design was evaluated through ANOVA (Analysis of Variance), and an improved optimal design model compared to the existing one was proposed.

Calculation of elastic wave fields has important applications in a variety of engineering fields including NDE (Non-destructive evaluation). Scattering problems have been investigated by numerous authors with different solution schemes. For simple geometries of the scatterers (e.g., cylinders or spheres), the analysis of steady-state elastic wave scattering has been carried out using analytical techniques. For arbitrary geometries and multiple inclusions, numerical methods have been developed. Special finite element methods, e.g., the infinite element method and a hybrid method called the Global-Local finite element method have also been developed for this purpose. Recently, the boundary integral equation method has been used successfully to solve scattering problems. In this paper, a volume integral equation method (VIEM) is proposed as a new numerical solution scheme for the solution of general elasto-dynamic problems in unbounded solids containing multiple inclusions and voids or cracks. A boundary integral equation method (BIEM) is also presented for elastic wave scattering problems. The relative advantage of the volume and boundary integral equation methods for solving scattering problems is discussed.

전자기 접합후의 접합체의 접합력은 압재와 모재사이의 잔류 탄성 변형도에 의해 발생하게 된다. 즉 두 부재사이의 접합강도는 접합후의 잔류 탄성 변형량 및 사용재료의 기계적 강도에 의해 결정될 수 있다. 두 재료의 접합에서 전자기 접합법을 적용하여 얻을 수 있는 이점은, 압재 둘레를 따라 거의 균일한 압력을 작용시킬 수 있으므로 접합체의 외관이 균일하다는 점과 여타의 집합법과 비교하여 공정이 단순하고 비교적 높은 접합 강도를 얻을 수 있다는 점이다. 특히, 높은 접합 강도를 얻기 위해서는 접합체 형상설계, 그리고 이에 따른 자속 집중기 형상의 적합한 설계와 더불어 제공정 인자의 영향 분석을 통한 최적 공정의 선택이 필수적이다.(중략)

This paper deals with free vibrations of the Timoshenko beam supported by two elastomeric bearings at two far ends. The ordinary differential equation governing free vibrations of such beam is derived, in which both effects of rotatory inertia and shear deformation are included as the Timoshenko beam theory. Also, boundary conditions of the free end are derived based on the Timoshenko beam theory. The ordinary differential equation is solved by the numerical methods for calculating natural frequencies and mode shapes. Both effects of the rotatory inertia and shear deformation on natural frequencies are extensively discussed. Also, relationships between natural frequencies and slenderness ratio, foundation modulus and bearing length are presented. Typical mode shapes of bending moment and shear force as well as deflection are given in figures which show the positions of maximum amplitudes and nodal points.

Poroelastic analyses of fiber-reinforced composites were performed using image-based computational models. The section image of a porous matrix was analyzed in order to investigate the porosity, number of pores, and distribution of pores. The resolution, location, and size of the section image were considered to quantify the effective elastic modulus, poroelastic parameter, and strain energy density using the image-based computational models. The poroelastic parameter was calculated from the effective elastic modulus and pore pressure-induced strain. In addition, the results of the poroelastic analyses were verified through representative volume elements by simplifying various pore configurations and arrangements.

Fretting wear behavior under elastic deformable contacts was experimentally examined by using a simulated dual cooled fuel rod and its supporting structure. As this fuel rod has larger outer diameter than the typical solid rod to accommodate sufficient internal flow, new supporting structure geometries should be designed and their reliabilities (i.e. vibration characteristics, fretting wear resistance, etc.) are also examined with both analytical and experimental methods. In this study, the supporting structure characteristics and fretting wear behaviors are analyzed and examined by using one of the supporting structure candidates which has an embossing shape. The supporting structure characteristics were examined by using a specially designed test rig and their results were compared with that of analytical method. Based on the test results, the relationship between the supporting structure characteristics and their fretting wear behaviors was discussed in detail.

The object of this study is form finding, stress-strain analysis and cutting pattern analysis of membrane structures under the following assumptions : (1) material is linearly elastic (2) stress state is plane stress. The cable and membrane structures undergo large deformation because of its highly flexibility, therefore, we must take account of its geometric nonlinearity. The analysis procedure is consisted of three steps considering geometric nonlinearity unlike any other structures. First step is the form finding analysis to determine the initial equilibrium shape. Second step is the stress-strain analysis to investigate the behaviors of structures under various external loads. Once a stationary shape has been fount a cutting pattern based on the form finding analysis may be generated for manufacturing procedure. In this paper, form finding, stress-strain analysis and cutting pattern analysis is carried out for applying to Seoguipo worldcup soccer stadium roof structures and optimal cutting pattern analysis technique is proposed.

In this paper, a simple but effective analysis procedure to estimate seismic capacities of multi-span continuous bridge structures is proposed on the basis of modal pushover analysis considering all the dynamic modes of structure. Unlike previous studies, the proposed method eliminates the coupling effects induced from the direct application of modal decomposition by introducing an identical stiffness ratio and an approximate elastic deformed shape. Moreover, in addition to these two introductions, the use of an appropriate distributed load {P} makes it possible to predict the dynamic responses for all kinds of bridge structures through a simpler analysis procedure. Finally, in order to establish the validity and applicability of the proposed method, correlation studies between rigorous nonlinear time history analysis and the proposed method are conducted for multi-span continuous bridges.
