This study evaluated the effect of vibration, level of lateral yielding strength, site conditions, ductility factor, strain-hardening ratio, and post-capping ratio of the strength limited bilinear SDF systems on the inelastic displacement ratio. The nonlinear response history analysis was conducted using 240 ground motions which were collected at the sites classified as site classes B, C, and D according to the NEHRP. To account for the P-$\Delta$ effects, this study considered negative stiffness ratios ranging from -0.1 to -0.5 of elastic stiffness. Four different damping ratios are used: 2, 5, 10, and 20%. From this study, an equation of inelastic displacement ratio was proposed using nonlinear regression analysis.

창원시 북면과 대산면 강변 여과 취수 지역에서의 탄성파 조사를 통한 충적 대수층의 특성 규명은, 탄성파 조사가 충적 대수층의 수리지질학적 정보를 획득하는데 매우 유용한 방법임을 보여주었다. 특히 굴절법 탐사는 충적층 지하수위 추정에 뚜렷한 효과가 있음을 보여주었으며, 고해상도 반사법 탐사의 경우도 퇴적 구조를 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 조사된 지역의 지하수위는 하천수위에 비해 약 2m 이상 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 조사된 시기의 지하수가 하천 방향으로 거동하고 있음을 시사한다. 하천 방향의 지하수위 최대 경사는 약 2/100 였으며, 실제 전반적인 조사 지역내의 충적층 지하수위 수두 경사는 이보다 작은 값일 것으로 사료된다. 또한 점토 및 실트질 지층이 조사 지역에 협재하고 있으나 이들의 수평적인 연속성은 한계가 있어 대표적인 대수층인 자갈 혼재층이 부분적으로만 피압 상태에 있을 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 햄머 진원을 이용한 고해상도 반사법 탐사의 경우, 약 40m 전후 심도의 충적층 하부 기반암의 상부를 뚜렷하게 보여주기에는 한계가 있다고 판단되며, P파의 속도와 주파수 문제로 인한 수직 해상력의 한계는 S파 등을 활용한 조사를 통해 보완할 필요가 있다고 사료된다

The inelastic design of the three-span continuous composite plate girder with consideration of moment redistribution over the interior pier is performed using the LRFD method. The design of the girder section, based on the inelastic method, is compared with that by the conventional elastic design. The length of the center span for the three-span continuous bridge ranges from 40m to 70m and the relative ratio of the span length is assumed to be 4:5:4. Although the AASHTO- LRFD specifications are applied in the design of the composite girder, the recently proposed new design live load is used. After determining the maximum positive and negative sections by the elastic design for various limit states, the amount of moment redistributed to the maximum positive moment section is calculated. With the increased design moment due to moment redistribution from the interior pier, the maximum positive section designed by the elastic method is checked for the strength limit state and the service limit state. The maximum negative moment section is redesigned by reducing the size of the steel girder relative to the section designed by the elastic method and the new section is checked for the service limit state. Based on the design results for the five bridges considered in this study, it is estimated that about 23% of steel can be saved in the interior pier section if it is designed by the inelastic method compared with that designed by the elastic method.

본 연구에서는 Advanced Rheometric Expansion System(ARES)를 사용하여 대진폭 진동 전단 변형하에서 발생하는 폴리이소부틸렌(PIB) 농후 용액의 비선형 점탄성 거동을 저 장탄성율과 동적점도의 변형량 의존성 및 응력파형의 fast Fourier transform(FFT) 해석을 통해 고찰하였다. 스트레인 진촉을 단계적으로 증가시키면서 측정한 동적 점탄성으로 부터 저장탄성율 및 동적점도의 선형응답한계를 결정하고 이들에 미치는 각주파수의 영향을 조사 하였다. 그리고 응력파형의 Fourier 전개로부터 유도되는 비선형 점탄성함수를 사용하여 비 선형 거동을 설명하였다. 끝으로 비선형 점탄성 거동의 정도를 나타내는 비선형 거동 지수 를 정의하고 이들에 미치는 각주파수의 영향에 대해 검토하였다. 이상의 연구를 통해 얻어 진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다.(1) 선형 응답한계는 고분자 용액의 특성시간의 역수보다 높은 각주파수 범위에서는 일정한 값을 유지하지만 특성시간의 역수보다 낮은 각주파수 영 역에서는 각주파수가 감소할수록 증가한다. (2)선형응답한계 이상의 대변형하에서는 3차비선 형 점탄성 함수 이상의 고차항의 영향이 크게 작용하며 이로인해 비선형 거동이 발생된다. (3) 스트레인 진폭을 단계적으로 증가시키면서 측정한 저장탄성율 및 동적점도의 변형량 의 존성은 응력파형의 Fourier transform으로부터 유도된 1차 비선형 점탄성 함수의 변형량 의 존성을 나타낸다 (4) 저장탄성율 및 동적점도의 변형량 의존성으로부터 유도된 비선형 거동 지수는 탄성적 서질과 점성적 성질에 대한 비선형 특성을 평가하기 위한 유요한 방법으로 인정된다. (5) 비선형 점탄성 거동의 정도를 나탄는 비선형 거동지수는 특정한 각주파수에서 최대치를 가지며 또한 탄성적 거동이 점성적 거동에 비해 더욱 큰 각주파수 의존성을 나타낸다.

Hyperbolic metamaterials in which waves can only propagate through the radial direction have achieved much attention these days due to their capability of sub-wavelength resolution. In this work, the realization and optimization of hyperbolic elastic metamaterials are mainly studied. To obtain a new hyperbolic elastic metamaterial, a specially-engineered mass-spring system is introduced. Based on the mass-spring system, the hyperbolic elastic metamaterials are proposed and realized. In addition, the sub-wavelength resolution of the proposed hyperbolic elastic metamaterial is verified by ultrasonic elastic wave experiments. For the experiments, specially-designed magnetostrictive patch transducers are developed to realize two sub-wavelength elastic wave sources. Furthermore, the proposed hyperbolic elastic metamaterial is optimized to maximize its operating frequency ranges by the topology optimization method.

Resonant column test huts been widely used as a primary laboratory testing technique in investigating dynamic soil properties expressed in therms of shear and Young's moduli and material damping. In thin Paper, dynamic Properties of typical Korean subgrade boils are investigated at shearing strains between 10-4% and 10-1% using Stokoe-type resonant column teat. The elastic threshold strains(yte) above which shear modulus and damping ratio are affected by strain amplitude, are defined at strain amplitude of about 10-3%. Below yte", small-strain shear modulus (Gmn) increases with confining pressure (Qc) as proportional to (Qe)0.61, and small-strain damping ratio(Dmin) ranges between 1% and 5.7%. Above yte, normalized shear modulus reduction curve(G/Gma. versus log strain) can be quite well expressed with Ramberg Osgood stress -strain equation and match well the curve suggested for sand by Seed and Idriss.riss.

A conventional elastic material replacement and performance evaluation are very complicated and time-consuming, and it is difficult to know when to replace the elastic material in advance. By comparing with the product limit and the functional limit, the necessity of elastic material replacement and the improvement of track support stiffness according to replacement can be immediately demonstrated based on experimental data. Using an evaluation system of track support stiffness, the performance evaluation data for elastic materials obtained through field tests using software for track support stiffness is integrated and managed on the administrator's computer. Therefore, the replacement plan is established and maintenance history is managed by identifying the replacement time and location of elastic materials. It is possible to evaluate the performance and condition of the elastic material at the various points during the working time of the track inspection and the track performance (track support stiffness) and durability of the elastic material (aging level, spring stiffness variation rate, etc.) at the operation condition. The elastic material could be replaced timely, and the deterioration of the elastic material can be continuously monitored.

The aseismic capacity of a traditional three-bay-straw-roof wooden house for rock site condition is quantitatively estimated. One 1/4 scale model was tested for the Nahanni Earthquake with peak ground accelerations from 0.1g to 0.6g. The natural frequency of the wooden house in elastic range is 1.66 Hz and 2.15 Hz in longitudinal and transversal direction, respectively. Damping ratio of the house in elastic range is 7%. The horizontal acceleration response of the house is significantly reduced compared with the input motion due to the nonlinear inelastic characteristics of the Sagae-machum joint of the frame. The traditional wooden house has high aseismic capacity in the rock site condition where high frequency contents of motion are predominant.

지진하중에 대한 구조물의 동적 거동과 성능을 예측 평가하기 위하여 실험적 방법들이 흔히 사용되고 있으나, 실험장비의 제약과 구조물의 규모 등으로 대부분 축소모형실험에 의존하고 있다. 그러나 일반적인 상사법칙(similitude law)은 탄성범위에서 유도된 것으로 지진거동과 같은 비탄성 거동을 예측하는 경우에는 한계가 있다. 또한 탄성범위 내에서도 크기효과(size offset)가 발생하므로 축소모형의 실험결과를 원형 구조물에 직접 적용하는 것은 많은주의가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 원형 구조물(prototype)과 축소모형(scaled model)을 모두 실험 대상으로 하여 실제 축소모형만을 실험하여 원형 구조물의 거동을 예측하는 경우의 문제점을 확인하고 그 해결방법을 모색하고자 한다. 실제로 축소모형실험에서는 원형 구조물의 경계조건을 정확히 재현하기 어려우며, 실험모형의 제작과정과 실험과정에서의 모든오차가강성의 변화로 반영되어 나타난다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기하학적 상사율과 변화된 강성비(stiffness ratio)를 함께 고려하여 고유진동수의 오차를 보정하고 비탄성 거동중에도 직접적인 실험결과의 비교가 가능한 상사법칙을 제안하였다. 더불어 제안된 상사법칙을 적용한 유사동적실험 (pseudodynamic test)을 수행하여 실험오차보정(experimental error compensation)효과를 검증하였다.

Both resonant column (RC) and torsional shear(TS) tests were performed at small to intermediate strain levels to investigate deformational characteristics of cohesive soils. The effects of variables such as strain amplitude, loading frequency, and number of loading cycles were studied. Plasticity index was found to be an important variables in evaluating these effects. Soils tested include undisturbed silts and clays and compacted subgrade soils. At small strains below the elastic threshold, shear modulus is independent of number of loading cycles and strain amplitude. Small strain material damping exists wi th ranges be tween 1.1% and 1.7% for 75 tests. The elastic threshold strain increases as confining pressure and plasticity index increases. Above the cyclic threshold strain, the modulus of cohesive soil decreases with increasing number of cycles while damping ratio is almost independent of number of load cycles. Moduli and damping ratios of cohesive soils obtanined by RC test are higher than those from 75 test because of the frequency effect. Shear modulus of cohesive soil increases linearly as a function of the logarithm of loading frequency.
