This paper presents a detailed parametric study, conducted using finite element tools to cover a range of several geometric and material parameters, on the behaviour of thin-walled partially encased composite (PEC) columns. The PEC columns studied herein are composed of thin-walled built-up H-shaped steel sections with concrete infill cast between the flanges. Transverse links are provided between the opposing flanges to improve resistance to local buckling. The parametric study is confined to eccentrically-loaded columns subjected to major axis bending only. The parameters that were varied include the overall column slenderness ratio (L/d), load eccentricity ratio (e/d), link spacing-to-depth ratio (s/d), flange plate slenderness ratio (b/t) and concrete compressive strength ($f_{cu}$). The overall column slenderness ratio was chosen to be the primary variable with values of 5, 10 and 15. Other parameters were varied within each case of L/d ratio. The effects of the selected parameters on the behaviour of PEC columns were studied with respect to the failure mode, peak axial load, axial load versus average axial strain response, axial load versus lateral displacement response, moment versus lateral displacement behaviour and the axial load-moment interaction diagram. The results of the parametric study are presented in the paper and the influences of each of the parameters investigated are discussed.

Recently a pressurized grouting soil nail is demanded due to problems beyond of economical and engineering purpose. In this study, a newly modified soil nailing technology named as the PGSN (Pressurized Grouting Soil Nailing) system is respected to reduced displacements of nails and increase of global slope stability. And effects of various factors related to the design of the PGSN system, such as the length of the soil nail, injected pressure and W/C ratio of cement grout in the pressurized grouting soil nail are examined throughout a series of the displacement-controlled field pull-out tests. Displacement-controlled field pull-out tests are performed in the present study and the volume of grouting are also evaluated based on the measurements. In addition, both short-term and long-term characteristics of pull-out deformations of the newly proposed PGSN system are analyzed and compared with those of the general soil nailing system by carrying out the stress-controlled field pull-out tests. From the pull-out characteristics of pressurized grouting soil nails, it is found that the effect of the length of the soil nail, injected pressure and W/C ratio of cement grout are important parameters.

Energy dissipation devices can be considered as an alternative for the seismic performance enhancement of existing structures based on the strengthened seismic design code. In this study, seismic response mitigation effects of friction dampers are investigated through the shaking table test of a full scale 3 story building structure. Frist, the bilinear force-displacement relationship of a structure-brace-friction damper system and the effect of brace-friction damper on the increase of frequency and damping ratio are identified. Second, frequency, displacement, and torque dependent characteristics of the friction damper are investigated by using harmonic load excitation tests. Finally, the shaking table tests are performed for a full scale 3 story steel frame. System identification results using random signal excitation indicated that brace-friction damper increased structural damping ratio and frequency, and El Centro earthquake test showed that brace-friction damper reduced the peak displacement and acceleration significantly. In particular, it was observed that the damping effect due to friction damper becomed obvious when the structure was excited by more intensive load causing frequent slippage of the friction dampers.

National standard system for calibrating current transformer(CT) up to primary current of 20,000A have been established. The system consists of 20,000 A AC high current source, CT comparator, standard CT, CT under test and CT burden. An AC high current is applied tn the primary windings of both the standard CT and the CT under test, and then the CT comparator measures the ratio error and the phase displacement by comparing the secondary currents of the two transformers. As a validity check for 20,000 A CT calibration system, the comparison with the two national standard institutes(NMIs) has been performed using same CTs. The comparison results of the CTs are consistent with those measured at two NMIs within 0.004 % for ratio error and 0.1 min for phase displacement in the primary current ranges of Ip = 10 - 20,000 A with a secondary current of Is = 5 A.

직사각형 폭발 챔버에서 전파하는 화염과 직사각형 장애물의 상관관계를 조사하기 위한 실험적 연구가 수행되었다. 챔버내에 10%, 20%및 30%의 blockage ratio를 가지는 3가지 직사각형 장애물들이 사용되었다. 전파하는 화염과 장애물의 상관관계를 조사하기 위해 고속카메라가 사용되었다. 고속카메라로 얻어진 화염 이미지로부터 장애물 주위의 국부 화염속도 및 그 화염속도의 확률밀도함수가 계산되었다. 실험결과, 전파하는 화염이 직사각형 장애물의 모서리와 상호작용할 때 국부 화염속도는 증가하였다. 그 증가속도는 장애물의 Blockage Ratio가 증가할 때 더욱 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 평균화염속도는 Blockage Ratio에 큰 의존성을 가지지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구에서 사용된 작은 L(Lenlgth)/D(Diameter)비를 가지는 폭발 챔버내에서 전파하는 화염전면과 직사각형 장애물과의 상관관계는 L/D비가 큰 문헌에서 보고된 결과와 비교하면, Blockage Ratio에 따른 의존성은 작은 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 여러 가지 제원 변화에 따른 폐단면 리브 보강판의 국부 처짐과 국부 모멘트의 특성을 살펴보고자 하였다. 여러가지 사다리꼴 리브를 갖는 보강판에 정사각형 분포하중을 재하하고 분석한 결과, 재하 패널 폭이 국부 거동에 미치는 영향이 가장 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 옆 패널 폭이 미치는 영향은 매우 작은 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 기준 보강판의 국부 거동은 강판과 리브가 이루는 각도로 표현되고, 다른 보강판의 국부 거동은 기준값에 재하 패널 폭, 판 두께, 리브 두께, 리브 높이, 옆 패널 폭의 비율 함수를 곱하여 구할 수 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 결과 또한 상당한 정확도를 나타내었다. 비율 함수를 다른 재하 크기에 적용한 결과, 재하 패널 폭을 제외한 다른 비율 함수의 타당성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 재하 패널 폭의 함수를 보정한 결과, 오차율이 크게 개선되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 비율 함수식을 이용하면, 제원과 상관없이 폐단면 리브를 갖는 보강판의 국부 처짐과 국부 모멘트에 대하여 간편하게 타당한 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper proposes the application of active multiple tuned mass dampers (AMTMD) for translational and torsional response control of a simplified two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) structure, able to represent the dynamic characteristics of general asymmetric structures, under the ground acceleration. This 2DOF structure is a generalized 2DOF system of an asymmetric structure with predominant translational and torsional responses under earthquake excitations using the mode reduced-order method. Depending on the ratio of the torsional to the translational eigenfrequency, i.e. the torsional to translational frequency ratio (TTFR), of asymmetric structures, the following three cases can be distinguished: (1) torsionally flexible structures (TTFR < 1.0), (2) torsionally intermediate stiff structures (TTFR = 1.0), and (3) torsionally stiff structures (TTFR > 1.0). The even distribution of the AMTMD within the whole width and half width of the asymmetric structure, thus leading to three cases of installing the AMTMD (referred to as the AMTMD of case 1, AMTMD of case 2, AMTMD of case 3, respectively), is taken into account. In the present study, the criterion for searching the optimum parameters of the AMTMD is defined as the minimization of the minimum values of the maximum translational and torsional displacement dynamic magnification factors (DMF) of an asymmetric structure with the AMTMD. The criterion used for assessing the effectiveness of the AMTMD is selected as the ratio of the minimization of the minimum values of the maximum translational and torsional displacement DMF of the asymmetric structure with the AMTMD to the maximum translational and torsional displacement DMF of the asymmetric structure without the AMTMD. By resorting to these two criteria, a careful examination of the effects of the normalized eccentricity ratio (NER) on the effectiveness and robustness of the AMTMD are carried out in the mitigation of both the translational and torsional responses of the asymmetric structure. Likewise, the effectiveness of a single ATMD with the optimum positions is presented and compared with that of the AMTMD.

Energy-saving block and invisible multiribbed frame composite wall (EBIMFCW) is an important shear wall, which is composed of energy-saving blocks, steel bars and concrete. This paper conducted seismic performance tests on six 1/2-scale EBIMFCW specimens, analyzed their failure process under horizontal reciprocating load, and studied the effect of axial compression ratio on the wall's hysteresis curve and skeleton curve, ductility, energy dissipation capacity, stiffness degradation, bearing capacity degradation. A formula for calculating the peak bearing capacity of such walls was proposed. Results showed that the EBIMFCW had experienced a long time deformation from cracking to failure and exhibited signs of failure. The three seismic fortification lines of the energy-saving block, internal multiribbed frame, and outer multiribbed frame sequentially played important roles. With the increase in axial compression ratio, the peak bearing capacity and ductility of the wall increased, whereas the initial stiffness decreased. The change in axial compression ratio had a small effect on the energy dissipation capacity of the wall. In the early stage of loading, the influence of axial compression ratio on wall stiffness and strength degradation was unremarkable. In the later stage of loading, the stiffness and strength degradation of walls with high axial compression ratio were low. The displacement ductility coefficients of the wall under vertical pressure were more than 3.0 indicating that this wall type has good deformation ability. The limit values of elastic displacement angle under weak earthquake and elastic-plastic displacement angle under strong earthquake of the EBIMFCW were1/800 and 1/80, respectively.

The author assessed the sagittal relationships between glenoid fossa of the temporal bone and mandibular condyle from lateral transcranial views of 74 TMJ with disc displacement and 16 TMJ with normal disc-condyle complex by the magnetic resonance image findings. All the subjects were female and also in their 3rd decades. The disc displacement group was subdivided into anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADWR) group and anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADWOR) group. The anterior, superior, and posterior joint spaces as well as anterior/posterior (A/P) ratio of the space at the closed jaw position and vertical and horizontal components of the condyle position relative to the articular eminence at the open jaw position were measured from all the subjects and the data were compared among groups. The result were as follows : 1. The mean posterior joint space of ADWR group was smaller than ADWOR group, but there were no significant differences in anterior and superior joint spaces between two groups. 2. There showed a tendency of higher A/P ratio in ADWR group which meant the condyle of ADWR was likely to take posteriorly displaced position. 3. There were higher proportion of neutral condylar position in glenoid fossa in normal group, but higher proportion of posterior condylar position in ADWR group. 4. There were no significant differences in the degree of condyle-fossa concentricity among groups.
