The dynamic instability for snapping phenomena has been studied by many researchers. There is few paper which deal with the dynamic buckling under the load with periodic characteristics, and the behavior under periodic excitation is expected the different behavior against step excitation. In this study, the dynamic direct snapping of shallow elliptic paraboloidal shells is investigated under not only step excitation but also sinusoidal and seismic excitations, applied in the up-and-down direction. The dynamic nonlinear responses are obtained by the numerical integration of the geometrically nonlinear equations of motion, and examined by the Fourier spectral analysis in order to get the frequency-dependent characteristics of the dynamic instability for various load levels. The results show that the dynamic instability phenomenon carried out from stable to unstable region reveals considerably different mechanism depending on the characteristics of excitations.

An engineering method is suggested to calculate the applied load versus crack extension in the elastic-plastic fracture. The condition for an increment of crack extension is set by a critical increment of crack-up opening displacement(CTOD). The ratio of the CTOD increment to the incremental crack extention is a critical crack-tip opening angle(CTOA), assumed to be constant for a material of a given thickness. The Dugdale model of crack-tip deformation in an infinite plate is applied to the method, and a complete solution for crack extension and crack instability is obtained. For finite-size specimens of arbitrary geometry in general yielding, an approximate generalization of the Dugdale model is suggested so that the approximation approaches the small-scale yielding solution in a low applied load and the finite-element solution in a large applied load. Maximum load is calculated so that an applied load attains either a limit load on an unbroken ligament or a peak load during crack extension. The proposed method was applied to three-point bend specimens of a carbon steel SM45C in various sizes. Reasonable agreements are found between calculated maximum loads and experimental failure loads. Therefore, the method can be a viable alternative to the J-R curve approach in the elastic-plastic fracture analysis.

The behaviors of acoustic emission emitted in the tests of the fracture toughness and fracture stability are observed by using the specimens of aluminum 2024-T351 and 7039-T6 alloys. The empirical eqution of J-R curve is derived. It is demonstrated from the comparison of the fracture toughness obtained from J-R curve with that from ASTM standard E813-81 that the latter is larger than the former. The discontinuous point in the log-log graph of J-integral vs. total acoustic emission count is observed in between the two offset lines referred from ASTM standard E813-81, but it's physical meaning is uncretain. An empirical material tearing modulus is derived in terms of the total acoustic emission count and proved to be valid in fracture instability test.

원유 비축기지 저장공동과 같이 상하로 긴 형상의 대규모 공동에서 횡방향의 지압이 과도하게 작용하면 천정부의 응력집중과 측벽의 암반 변위가 과도하게 발생하여 저장공동의 불안정 요인이 된다. 특히 지압의 절대 크기가 암반 강도의 일정 비율 이상이 되면 응력 집중에 의한 암반의 취성 파괴를 유발하고, 이러한 현상은 터널 굴착 시 발생하는 파괴음(popping)과, 굴착면에 평행한 형태로 암편이 탈락하는 취성파괴(spalling) 현상을 동반한다. 이 글에서는 대규모 지하저장공동 굴착시 실제 발생한 과지압으로 인한 문제 사례에 대해 소개한다. 저장공동 굴착시 관찰된 암편 및 숏크리트 탈락과 균열 발생 현상을 관찰하고 암반 계측결과 분석을 통해 과지압의 현상을 진단하였다. 과지압 구간의 현재 상태 및 원안 설계안에 대해 연속체 및 불연속체 안정성 해석을 실시하여 문제의 심각성을 평가하였다. 이를 통해 굴착 형상 변경 및 특수 보강 방안을 제안하였으며 제안된 안의 보강효과에 대한 수치해석 평가 결과를 재검토 하였다. 이들 결과를 종합하여 과지압구간 보강안을 도출하였으며 상시 안정성 감시 대책으로 현장 암반의 미소파괴음 계측 방안을 제시하였다.

최근 지구 환경변화에 따른 기후변화의 영향으로 이상홍수 발생의 위험성이 증가하고, 상습적으로 홍수피해가 반복되고 있다. 홍수피해의 원인 중 하나인 하천제방의 붕괴는 월류, 침식, 제체불안정, 구조물에 의한 파괴 등으로 구분되고 이 중 월류 및 침식은 제방 파괴의 주된 원인으로 최근 통계자료에 보고되고 있다. 제방붕괴의 주된 원인 중 하나인 침식파괴로부터 제방을 보호하기 위해 제내지 사면에 호안공을 설치하며, 하천설계기준 해설(2009)에서는 제방 또는 하안을 유수에 의한 파괴와 침식으로부터 직접 보호하기 위해 제방 앞비탈에 설치하는 구조물로 정의하고 있다. 특히 사행하천의 만곡부에서는 제방파괴의 위험성이 높을 뿐만 아니라 국부적으로 집중되는 유속분포는 제방의 안정성을 위협한다. 또한 원심력, 2차류(secondary flow) 등에 의한 수위상승 등에 의해 제방이 파괴되고 월류되어 홍수피해가 발생할 가능성이 큰 취약지점이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 수치모형을 이용하여 만곡부 흐름 특성을 분석하고 수리실험을 통해 측정된 유속 및 수위분포 결과와 비교하여 분석하였다. 또한 수리실험에서 도출된 호안 붕괴 시의 흐름을 구현하여 호안 붕괴 시 국부유속 및 전단응력을 계산하고 만곡부 호안의 안정성을 위한 설계인자를 분석하였다. 연구결과로 제시된 만곡부 안정성을 위한 설계인자는 국외 호안공 설계식과 비교하여 국부유속 및 전단응력의 설계인자의 적합성을 검토하고 국내 만곡부 호안의 안정성 설계기법개발에 도움이 될 수 있는 설계인자를 제시하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 척추침생검 시뮬레이터에서 사용의 햅틱 디바이스인 PHANToM(sup)TM을 이용하여 사실적인 힘을 구현하는 방법을 보여준다. PHANToM(sup)TM은 툴의 끝부분에서 좌표축 방향으로만 힘을 낼 수 있는 단점이 있으며, 시스템의 구동장치의한계로 인하여 딱딱한 물체에 닿을 때 불안정한 특성을 보인다. 또한 좁은 영역 안에서 복잡한 조직들로 인한 급격한 강도 변화도 시스템의 불안정을 초래한다. 모사되는 힘은 두가지 성분으로 나뉜다. 하나는 바늘이 삽입될 때 바늘의 길이 방향으로 느껴지는 힘으로 생체 조직의 모델을 통해 값이 구해진다. 다른 하나는 바늘이 피부를 뚫고 지나간 이후에 바늘이 초기 삽입 방양을 유지 시켜주는 회전방향 힘으로 피봇을 이용하여 구현하였다. 불안정성 문제와 바늘이 튀어나오는 문제는 램핑 필터와 시간변수를 이용하여 제거하였다. 침생검 과정은 생체조직의 탄성 변형뿐 아니라 파괴가 일어나는 변형이므로 사실적인 힘을 구현하기 위해서 실험 데이터를 이용하여 삽입 깊이에 따라 탄성 계수와 마찰 상수가 변하는 모델을 제안하였다.

This experimental research evaluated the length of crack extension with the measured compliances as the mutual comparison factors instead of the method proposed in ASTM E561-80. And this research measured the R-curves with the application to the concept of the strain energy release rate that was formulated from the inelastic energy absorbed during the crack growth. With the interpretation of R-curves, this research obtained the starting point of the unstable crack growth, and compared the values of critical fracture toughness with each other, and then examined the effects of variations of the maximum size of coarse aggregate and the thickness of specimen on the values of the critical fracture toughness.

Laboratory experiments were undertaken in mixing chamber to study the water-in-oil emulsion formation tendency, stability and formation rate of 16 crude oils. Arabian, Iran, Dubai, Isthmus and Daekyung crudes showed high emulsion formation tendency and had water contents of 80-90%. Emulsions of crude oils of middle East were very stable, while Isthmus and Daekyung sudes formed unstable emulsion. Emulsion formation tendency rate, and stability showed significant correlations with asphaltene content of crude oil. To evaluate the possibility of preventing mousse formation, inhibition ability of several dispersants and demulsifier was tested. They inhibited mousse formation at 0.1-0.2% concentrations (v/v). Emulsion inhibition by chemical treatment delayed the time of formation, but did not decrease water content. Demulsifying ability of dispersants and demulsifier was tested because biscous emulsion causes formidable problems in skimming, pumping and recovery operation. British demulsifier Alcohol 0 showed excellent emulsion breaking efficiency at 0.1% of emulsion Vol..

In this paper the failure mechanisms and Charpy impact tests of carbon fiber polypropylene composites have been studied in the temperature range -5$0^{\circ}C$ to 6$0^{\circ}C$ and 3 different supported length of specimen (span length). There are significant effects of temperature and span length on impact fracture toughness, which shows a peak at ambient temperature and decrease as temperature is reduced. Fracture toughness shows a maximum at span length s=20mm. Failure mechanisms are characterized based on SEM examination, which is correlated the measured fracture toughness. Mafor mechansms of this composites can be classified as fiber matrix debonding, delamination, fiber pull-out and matrix deformation.

In highly stressed conditions, the excavation damage zone induced by stress redistribution and disturbance must be evaluated after tunnel excavation. Therefore, the investigation of stress-induced deformation and fracture in rock is indispensable. In this study, fracture and damage mechanisms of rock induced by the accumulation of microcracks were investigated by the moving point regression technique as well as acoustic emission measured during uniaxial compression tests. Especially, the modified procedures to determine damage thresholds more systematically were newly proposed, and successfully applied to rock. From experiments, crack initiation and track damage stress levels were estimated to be $33{\~}36\%$ and $84{\~}89\%$ of uniaxial compressive strength respectively, for both of Hwangdeung granite and Yeosan marble. However, the normalized crack closure stress level for Yeosan marble was much higher than for Hwangdeung granite. In addition, the largest proportion of total axial strain in Hwangdeung granite was attributable to elastic deformation and initial microcracking. However, the greatest part of axial deformation in Yeosan marble arose from initial crack closure and unstable cracking. Finally, it was seen that unstable cracking after the crack damage stress level played a key part in the lateral deformation in rocks under uniaxial compression.
