In case of nonlinear analysis for reinforced concrete structure, the characteristics of the failure, which are depend on loading conditions, such as tension splitting, compression crushing and shear distortion should be considered. On the analytical evaluation for the failure behavior of these, the finite element techniques is the most widely used. After the maximum load, however, an analytical results by finite element technique are depending on the size of the element. In this study, integral nonlocal model which is one of those study for overcoming the element sensitivity and dependancy, used for the failure analysis of box culvert specimen. Comparing on the experimental and analytical results, validity and reliability of integral nonlocal model are investigate.

In this paper, the penetration behavior of carbon/epoxy composite laminates subjected to high velocity projectile impact was studied by numerical simulation. The composite laminates made of carbon/epoxy with $[45/0/-45/90]_{ns}$ stacking sequence and the spherical steel impactor were three-dimensionally modeled. The ply numbers of 16 and 24 and the impact velocities in the range of 140-250 m/s were considered. The analysis was performed using an explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. The residual velocity and the amount of damage were predicted and compared to the experimental results.

Petrov-Galerkin finite element model for analyzing dynamic wave equation is applied to gradually and rapidly varied unsteady flow. The model in verified by applying to hydraulic jump, nonlinear disturbance propagation in frictionless horizontal channel and dam-break analysis. It shows stable and accurate results compared with analytical solutions for various cases. The model in applied to a surge propagation in a frictionless horizontal channel. Three-dimensional water surface profiles show that the computed result converges to the analytical one with sharp discontinuity. The model is also applied to the Taehaw River to analyze unsteady floodwave propagation. The computed results have good agreements with those of DWOPER model in terms of discharge and stage hydrographs.

Injection molding is the most commonly used process that uses plastic material. Today, the uses of plastic material are continuously increasing, and the range of application is also being extended by the development of novel materials. An inline skate consists of 4 components: the boot, frame, wheel and brake. Among these components, the frame is the most critical. The injection formability for a variety of injection materials for inline skate frames was studied. We also studied the injection formability of the product for various sizes of the runner and gate. In this study, injection molding analysis was performed using MOLDFLOW, and structural analysis was performed using ANSYS.

A hygroscopic rotor comprises many microchannels with high adsorption characteristics. In this study, the iterative adsorption/desorption processes that were affected by the humid air flow in a channel were numerically simulated. In consideration of the accuracy and computational costs, in the desiccant layer, only surface diffusion was considered in this simulation. The results were compared with the previous numerical results and found to show good agreement. By conjugating the heat and mass transfer between the desiccant and the flow layers, temporal and spatial changes in the vapor mass fraction, adsorbed liquid water mass fraction, and temperature in the channel were presented.

The primary purpose of using bracings is to improve the lateral rigidity of main structural system, i.e., columns and beams, by reinforciing them with much smaller members. In conventional design methods brackings are considered as tension-only members, since difficulties arise in the analysis when the P-.DELTA. effects and post-buckling behaviour of the bracing members are taken into account. This is particulary true fox X-bracings. Recently, however, both analytical and experimental studies have been conducted to investigate the more precise and real behaviour of bracing members, especially for the nonlinear and plastic behaviour under cyclic loads. In this study, an analytical model is proposed to investigate the nonlinear behavior of steel bracing members subjected to cyclic loads. Results of the analysis were compared with previous experimental results, and good agreements were obtained between these results.

In the previous study(1), the finite element method was used for the vertical vibration analysis of suspension bridge considering the effects of the shear deformation and the rotary inertia under moving load. This study firstly performs the eigenvalue analysis for the free vertical vibration of suspension bridge using FEM analysis. Next the equations of motion considering interaction between suspension bridge and vehicles/train are derived using mode superposition method. And dynamic analysis was performed using the Newmark $\beta$ Method. Finally through the numerical examples, the dynamic responses of bridges by this study are investigated.

In this study, an improved energy-based nonlinear static analysis method are proposed to be used for more accurate evaluation of progressive collapse potential of steel moment frames by reflecting the contribution of a double-span floor slab. To this end, the behavior of the double-span floor slab was first investigated by performing material and geometric nonlinear finite element analysis. A simplified energy-absorbed analytical model by idealizing the deformed shape of the double-span floor slab was developed. It is shown that the proposed model can easily be utilized for modeling the axial tensile force and strain energy response of the double-span floor slab under the column-removal scenario.

The objective of this study was to investigate, using a numerical method, the fuel injection targeting for improving the combustion performance in a HSDI diesel engine. In this work, the ECFM-3Z model was applied as the combustion model, and the injection mass, inclined spray angle, and injection timing were varied for the study on the targeting of fuel spray. The results of this work were compared in terms of cylinder pressure, rate of heat release, and exhaust emissions characteristics. It was found that the cylinder pressure increased when the injection timing was advanced, and the rate of heat release increased when more fuel was injected into the piston bowl. In addition, $NO_x$ emission increased owing to the increase in the rate of heat release. On the other hand, CO and soot emissions decreased because of the improvement in combustion performance.

석탄가스화 복합발전 시스템은 고효율 및 우수한 환경보전성으로 인하여 차세대 화력발전 시스템으로 각광받고 있다. 본 연구는 석탄가스화기내의 비반응 유동장에 대한 연구로서, 순수유동장 및 미분탄입자를 포함한 이상유동장에 대한 전산해석을 수행하였다. 가스화기내의 유동장을 기술하는 Navier-Stokes방정식을 유한차분법에 의하여 해석하고 그 결과를 나타내었다. 특히 선회유동의 영향에 의한 미분탄입자의 거동 및 재순환영역의 특성에 대하여 선회강도의 함수로 고찰하였다. 해석결과에 의하면 가스화기내에서는 며책의 재순환영역이 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. 비반응유동장의 해석결과이지만, 선회유동은 화염안정화에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있을 것으로 추측되는 결과를 보였다.
