An experimental technique was developed to determine the strain-rate in a tensile specimen. Then one can calculate the transient isothermal elongational viscosity. Both shear and elongational viscosities were measured to study the effect of shear and elongational fields on the flow properties. The comparison between these viscosities shows that the onset of rapid viscosity growth as crystallization solidification proceeds occurs at about the same value of time at very small deformation rates (0.0028 and 0.0047 $s^{-1}$). The comparison of these measured viscosities as functions of shear and elongational Hencky strains also reveals that the onset of rapid viscosity growths starts at critical Hencky strain values. The behaviour of steady shear viscosity as function of temperature sweep was also explored at three different low shear rates. Finally, the influence of changing oscillatory frequencies and strain rates was also investigated.

사질토에서의 한계상태정수 결정시 근본적인 물리적 과정들과 고유적 인 한계성들을 파악하기 위하여 일련의 표준삼축시험을 실시하였다. 시험결과에 의하면, 주어진 흙에 대하여 한계상태마찰각은 배수조건에 상관없이 일정한 반면에, e-log p＇공간상에서의 한계상태선은 주로 표준삼축시험에서 충분치 못하게 도달하는 변형률과 비배수시험에서의 변형률 국지화효과 때문에 배수조건에 따라 다른 결과를 보였다. 실내시험을 통하여 한계상태정수를 산정하는 최선의 방법은 균일하고 느슨하게 성형된 시료를 배수조건하에서 전단하는 것으로 나타났다. 더불어 배수시험에서 다일러턴 시효과나 변형률 국지화효과를 피할 수 있는 시험을 계획하기 위한 참고상태정수를 제시하였다.

The stability and resistance of the plates under in-plane loading is crucial in the design of structures. For the assessment of structural stability, it is necessarily required to have accurate finite element technologies. Therefore, the enhanced 9-node plate (Q9-ANS) element is introduced for the linear buckling analysis of plate where the critical buckling load has to be determined. The Q9-ANS is developed with the Reissner-Mindlin (RM) assumptions which consider transverse shear deformation of the plate. Assumed shear strain is used to alleviate the shear locking phenomenon. Numerical examples are carried out to verify the performance of the Q9-ANS element in calculation of critical buckling load of the plates.

흙이 변형하는 동안 전단지역 내에서 변형국지화가 자주 관찰된다. 사실상, 그 현상은 예외적이라기보다는 전형적으로 보인다. 개념적으로, 행해진 일의 증가가 음인 경우 변형국지화가 쉽게 발생한다. 이러한 현상을 검증하기 위해서, 본 연구에서는 배수상태의 조밀한 흙, 비배수상태의 느슨한 흙, 비배수전단하의 조밀한 흙에서의 공동화, 비균질한 흙, 판상형의 입자로 된 흙에서의 입자배열, 입자 깨짐을 가지는 흙, 그리고 낮은 함수비나 약한 시멘트결합이 된 흙 등 다양한 흙과 다양한 조건에 대하여 조사를 수행하였다. 이러한 경우들의 각각을 독립적으로 시험할 수 있도록 시료를 제작하였고 실험절차를 구상하였다. 실험결과에 의하면, 최고점후 변형연화거동을 가지는 흙은 변형국지화, 전단대형성, 그리고 점진적 파괴가 되기 쉽다. 응력상태, 흙밀도, 흙입자의 고유적인 역학적$.$지형학적인 특성, 저함수비, 그리고 비균질성이 변형국지화를 일으키는데 공헌을 하였다. 국지화가 가능한 모든 경우들을 고려해 볼 때, 실내시험으로부터 한계상태정수를 결정하는 최선의 방법은 배수전단하의 느슨하고 균일한 포화시료를 사용하는 것으로 나타났다.

Seismic performance of ordinary reinforced concrete shear wall systems commonly used in high-rise residential buildings is evaluated. Three types of shear walls exceeding 60m in height are designed by performance-based seismic design. Then, incremental dynamic analysis is performed collapse probability is assessed in accordance with the procedure of FEMA P695. As a result, story drift, plastic rotation, and compressive strain are observed to be major failure modes, but shear failure occur little. Collapse probability and collapse margin ratio of performance groups do not meet requirement of FEMA P695. It is observed that critical wall elements fail due to excessive compressive strain. Therefore, the compressive strain of concrete at the boundary area of the shear wall needs to be evaluated with more conservative acceptance criteria.

Detailed analysis of internal forces of exterior beam-column joints of RC frames under seismic action is reported in this paper. A formula is derived for calculating the average joint shear from the column shears, and a formula is proposed to estimate torque in eccentric joints induced by seismic action. Average joint shear stress and strain are defined consistently for exterior joints, which can be used to establish joint shear constitutive relationship. Numerical results of shear, bending moment and torque in joints induced by seismic action are presented for a pair of concentric and eccentric exterior connections extracted from a seismically designed RC frame, and two sections located at the levels of beam bottom and top reinforcement, respectively, are identified as the critical joint sections for evaluating seismic joint behavior. A simplified analysis of the effects of joint shear and torque on the flexural strengths of the critical joint sections is made for the two connections extracted from the frame, and the results indicate that joint shear and torque induced by a strong earthquake may lead to "joint-hinging" mechanism of seismically designed RC frames.

This paper presents detailed analysis of the internal forces of interior beam-column joints of reinforced concrete (RC) frames under seismic action, identifies critical joint sections, proposes consistent definitions of average joint shear stress and average joint shear strain, derives formulas for calculating average joint shear and joint torque, and reports simplified analysis of the effects of joint shear and torque on the flexural strengths of critical joint sections. Numerical results of internal joint forces and flexural strengths of critical joint sections are presented for a pair of concentric and eccentric interior connections extracted from a seismically designed RC frame. The results indicate that effects of joint shear and torque may reduce the column-to-beam flexural strength ratios to below unity and lead to "joint-yielding mechanism" for seismically designed interior connections. The information presented in this paper aims to provide some new insight into the seismic behavior of interior beam-column joints and form a preliminary basis for analyzing the complicated interaction of internal joint forces.

This paper investigates the mechanisms of tunnel spalling and massive tunnel failures using fracture mechanics principles. The study starts with examining the fracture propagation due to tensile and shear failure mechanisms. It was found that, fundamentally, in rock masses with high compressive stresses, tensile fracture propagation is often a stable process which leads to a gradual failure. Shear fracture propagation tends to be an unstable process. Several real case observations of spalling failures and massive shear failures in boreholes, tunnels and underground roadways are shown in the paper. A number of numerical models were used to investigate the fracture mechanisms and extents in the roof/wall of a deep tunnel and in an underground coal mine roadway. The modelling was done using a unique fracture mechanics code FRACOD which simulates explicitly the fracture initiation and propagation process. The study has demonstrated that both tensile and shear fracturing may occur in the vicinity of an underground opening. Shallow spalling in the tunnel wall is believed to be caused by tensile fracturing from extensional strain although no tensile stress exists there. Massive large scale failure however is most likely to be caused by shear fracturing under high compressive stresses. The observation that tunnel spalling often starts when the hoop stress reaches $0.4^*UCS$ has been explained in this paper by using the extension strain criterion. At this uniaxial compressive stress level, the lateral extensional strain is equivalent to the critical strain under uniaxial tension. Scale effect on UCS commonly believed by many is unlikely the dominant factor in this phenomenon.

The influence of equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) route on dynamic deformation behavior of ultra-fine grained Al-4.4%Mg alloys was investigated in this study. The 8-pass ECAPed specimens consisted of ultra-fine grains of $0.5{\mu}m$ in size, and contained the considerable amount of second phase particles, which were fragmented and distributed homogeneously in the matrix. The result of dynamic torsional tests indicated that the maximum shear stress and fracture shear strain were lowest in the specimen deformed by ECAP via route A among the 8-pass ECAPed specimens. The formation of adiabatic shear bands was addressed by concepts of critical shear strain, deformation energy required for void initiation, and microstructural homogeneity related to ECAP routes.

This paper presents a model for evaluating the contribution by arch action and frame action to shear resistance in shear-critical reinforced concrete beams without stirrup. The rotating angle softened truss model is employed to calculate the shear deformation of the web and the relative axial displacement of the compression and tension chord by the shear flow are also calculated. From this shear compatibility condition in a beam, the shear contribution by the arch action is numerically decoupled. The transverse strain obtained from the proposed model is selected for shear failure criterion. Using the failure criterion, shear strength of RC slender beams without stirrup is predicted.
