This study suggests modular composite profile beams, where the prefab concept is applied to existing composite profile beams. The prefab concept produces a beam of desired size having two types of profile: side module and bottom module. Module section will improve construction efforts because it offers several benefits : reduction of deflections due to creep and shrinkage, which might be found in existing composite profile beams; increase in span/depth ratio; and free prefabrication of any required beams. Based on the established analysis theory of composite profile beams, an analysis theory of modular composite profile beams was suggested, and analysis values were compared with experimental ones. The behavior of individual modules with increase of load was measured with a strain gauge, and the shear connection ratio between modules was analyzed by using the measured values. As a result of experiment, it was found that theoretical flexural strength on condition of full connection was 57%-80% by connection of modules for each specimen, and it is expected that flexural strength will approximate the theoretical levels through further module improvement.

The purpose of the paper is to protect the damage of plastic IC package with searching the cause of the fracture due to the delamination and crack when the encapsulant of plastic IC package is on viscoelastic behavior with the effect of creep on high temperature, The model for analysis is the plastic SOJ package with dimpled diepad in the IR soldering process of surface mounting technology. The risk of delamination with calculating the distribution of viscoelastic thermal stress in the package without the crack in the surface mounting process is checked. The package model with the perfect delamination between chip and diepad is chosen to estimate the resistance against fracture in thermal loading with calculating C (t)-integrals according to the change of the design. The optimum design to depress the delamination and crack is presented.

It is well known that Fe3Al intermetallic compound shows an anomalous peak of the yield strength at about 50$0^{\circ}C$ and then decrease at higher temperatures The dislocation structure was examined by transmission electron microscopy and high temperatures. The dislocation structure was examined by transmission electron microscopy and high temperature mechanical properties were examined by tensile and load relaxation tests. The flow stress curves obtained from load relaxation tests were then analyzed in terms of internal variable deformation theory. it was found that the flow curves consisted of three micro-deformation mechanisms -i. e inelastic deformation mode plastic deformation mode and dislocation creep deformation mode depending on both dislocation structure and deformation temperature. The flow curves could be well described by the constitutive equations of these three micro-deformation mechanisms based on the internal variable deformation theory.

An analytical method to predict the flexural behavior of composite girder is presented in which the early-age properties of concrete are specified including maturing of elastic modulus, creep and shrinkage. The time dependent constitutive relation accounting for the early-age concrete properties is derived in an incremental format by expanding the total form of stress-strain relation by the first order Taylor series with respect to the reference time. The sectional analysis calculates the axial and curvature strains based on the force and moment equilibriums. The deflection curve of the box girder approximated by the quadratic polynomial function is calculated by applying to the proper boundary conditions in the consecutive segments. Numerical applications are made for the 3-span double composite steel box girders which is a composite bridge girder filled with concrete at the bottom of the steel box in the negative moment region. The one dimensional finite element analysis results are compared with those of the three dimensional finite element analysis and the analytical method based on the sectional analysis. Close agreement is observed among the three methods.

The overhead transmission wires operating both at warm temperature and tighten state for a long period of time in a power transmission plant are degraded by air pollution, wind, creep and slip between steel wire and aluminium conductor. The objective of this study is to investigate a high carbon steel wire. We tested for basic mechanical properties and 3 types fatigue behavior, tension-tension, 4 points bending and 3 points bending fatigues. In this study, a conventional fatigue strengths between 4 points bending and tension-tension fatigue were determined by Gerber, Sorderberg and Goodman's theory and we investigated S-N diagram for bending and tensile loading.

This paper presents an analytical prediction of the prestress losses of prestressed concrete bridges. In this study a numerical procedure and computer program is developed to analyze the behavior of prestressed concrete bridges considering the time-dependent properties of material. It accounts for the aging, creep and shrinkage of concrete and the stress relaxation of prestressed steel. The structural model uses two dimensional plane frame elements with three nodal degree of freedom and is analyzed based on the finite element method. Member cross section can consist of concrete, reinforcement and prestressing steel. Two different set of equations for the prediction of time-dependent material properties of concrete are presented, which are ACI, CEB-FIP. The proposed numerical method for the prestress losses of prestressed concrete bridges is verified by comparison with reliable experimental results.

`Frost heave' is volumetric extension behavior of soil due to freezing. It could have a bad effect to foundations of infrastructures like building, road, railroad and bridge. Therefore, it is considered as a primary design parameter with 'adfreeze bond' and 'creep deformation' for foundation design in cold region. In some countries, studies for analyzing frost heave in many ways have being performed, however, only a few studies for evaluating frost susceptibility of soils by measuring frost heave rate of frozen soils in Korea. For analyzing frost heave as a foundation design parameter, both frost heaving rate and heaving pressure are should be addressed in study. Hence, in this study, development of experimental apparatus to evaluate frost heave and pressure is suggested.

Several oxide (ZrO2, Al2TiO5, reactive Al2O3) and nonoxide (SiC, Si3N4, "ALON" (5AlN.9Al2O3)) additives were used as a microfiller for alumina based LCC (Low-Cement-Castable). High temperature prooperties (HMOR, softening under load) and the phase changes of developed LCC on various sintering temperatures were examined. In addition, thermal shock test and corrosion test were accomplished. Based on these data the effects of each microfiller on the properties of LCC were established comparing to those of the commercial LCC with amorphous silica as a microfiller. The castables, containing reactive alumina, ZrO2 and "ALON" (5AlN.9Al2O3) as a first portion, exhibited considerably higher HMOR-values over 100$0^{\circ}C$, better creep behavior, and thermal shock resistance than those of castables with amorphous silica. The LCC with 5% Al2TiO5 showed no corrosion against molten aluminum.nst molten aluminum.

Due to the enormous amount of fills required, broken rock-fine grain soil mixtures have been increasingly used in the construction of high-fill foundations for airports, railways and highways in the mountain areas of western China. However, the compressibility behavior of those broken rock-fine grain soil mixtures remains unknown, which impose great uncertainties for the performance of those high-fill foundations. In this research, the mixture of broken limestone and a fine grain soil, Douposi soil, is studied. Large oedometer tests have been performed on specimens with different soil content. This research reveals the significant influence of fine grains on the compressibility of the mixture, including immediate settlement, creep, as well as wetting deformation.

본 논문에서는 점탄성 매트릭스와 탄성 강화입자로 구성된 복합재료의 크리프 거동예측을 미세역학 기반의 시뮬레이션을 통하여 수행하였다. 에폭시 고분자로 이루어진 복합재료의 경우 재료 특성상 탄성적 거동뿐 아니라 점성적 거동도 함께 발생하게 된다. 이렇듯 점탄성 거동을 보이는 재료의 경우 탄성만을 고려한 해석방법으로는 한계가 있으며 점성적인 특성 또한 고려되어야 한다. 점탄성 복합재료의 해석을 위해서 손상을 고려한 미세역학 기반의 해석 (Ju and Chen, 1994) 과 Mesquita and Coda (2002)의 근사식을 사용하였다. 이를 통해 구한 재료 물성은 복합재료의 크리프 거동예측을 위한 Kelvin-Voight (KV) 모델과 Standard Linear Solid (SLS) 모델에 적용되었다. 최종적으로 본 연구에서 제안한 손상을 고려한 점탄성 모델의 예측과 시험결과를 비교 수행하여 결과의 타당성을 검증하였다.
