본 논문은 벤드(bend)부의 노후 문제를 경감시키기 위한 대안으로 폼패드를 없앤 이중보온관의 형상 설계를 제안하였다. 전 관경에 대해 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 이를 토대로 전단제어링 형상을 결정하였다. 제안된 전단제어링 사양 강화이형관에 대한 현장 시공 시험은 진행하였으며, 온도와 응력 데이터를 취득 및 분석하였다. 강화이형관의 제작과 현장 시범시공을 통하여 강화이형관이 폼패드를 시공하지 않으면서도 강관의 열응력이 허용치 기준내에 있음을 확인하였다. 특히 보온재의 전단강도가 강화되어 폼패드를 적용한 기존 벤드보다 낮은 최대 전단응력이 발생함을 확인함으로써, 강화이형관 적용에 따른 구조 안전성 향상 효과를 확인하였다.

The creep characteristics of rock is of great significance for the study of long-term stability of engineering, so it is necessary to carry out indoor creep test and creep model of rock. First of all, in different water-bearing state and different positive pressure conditions, the granite is graded loaded to conduct indoor shear creep test. Through the test, the shear creep characteristics of granite are obtained. According to the test results, the stress-strain isochronous curve is obtained, and then the long-term strength of granite under different conditions is determined. Then, the fractional-order calculus software element is introduced, and it is connected in series with the spring element and the nonlinear viscoplastic body considering the creep acceleration start time to form a nonlinear viscoplastic creep model with fewer elements and fewer parameters. Finally, based on the shear creep test data of granite, using the nonlinear curve fitting of Origin software and Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm, the parameter fitting and comparative analysis of the nonlinear creep model are carried out. The results show that the test data and the model curve have a high degree of fitting, which further explains the rationality and applicability of the established nonlinear visco-elastoplastic creep model. The research in this paper can provide certain reference significance and reference value for the study of nonlinear creep model of rock in the future.

The transition metal salt doped solid polymer electrolyte [TSPE] were prepared with HPMC as a host polymer. The virgin and doped films were prepared by solution-casting method and investigated using wide angle X-ray scattering method. Micro structural parameters like lattice strain (g%), stacking/twin faults, the average number of unit cells counted in a direction perpendicular to the Bragg's plane (hkl) spacing of (hkl) planes dhkl, crystallite size Ds, distortion width, standard deviation were determined by whole pattern powder fitting (WPPF) method, which is an extension of single order method. It is found that the crystallite size decreases with the increase in the content of $FeCl_3$. This decrease is due to increase in localized breaking of polymer network which also accounts for the amorphous nature of the material. The filler inorganic salt $FeCl_3$ acts as plasticizer. FTIR study also confirms and justifies the interaction between the polymer and in-organic salt in the matrix. Physical properties like mechanical stability and Ac conductivity in these films are in conformity with the X-ray results.

Hybrid-fiber reinforced concrete (HFRC) may provide much higher tensile and flexural strengths, tensile ductility, and flexural toughness than normal concrete (NC). HFRC slab has outstanding advantages for use as a composite bridge potential deck slab owing to higher tensile strength, ductility and crack resistance. However, there is little information on shear connector associated with HFRC slabs. To investigate the mechanical behavior of the stud shear connectors embedded in HFRC slab, 14 push-out tests (five batches) in HFRC and NC were conducted. It was found that the stud shear connector embedded in HFRC had a better ductility, higher stiffness and a slightly larger shear bearing capacity than those in NC. The experimentally obtained ultimate resistances of the stud shear connectors were also compared against the equations provided by GB50017 2003, ACI 318-112011, AISC 2011, AASHTO LRFD 2010, PCI 2004, and EN 1994-1-1 (2004), and an empirical equation to predict the ultimate shear connector resistance considering the effect of the HFRC slabs was proposed and validated by the experimental data. Curve fitting was performed to find fitting parameters for all tested specimens and idealized load-slip models were obtained for the specimens with HFRC slabs.

An ejector is a fluid transfer device to be used for mixing of fluids, maintaining vacuum, and overcoming a poor suction condition. To date, most ejectors have been made from the casting process. which is time-consuming and high-cost process. Therefore, a new production method of ejectors is desired if any. In this experimental study, we proposed a new type ejector manufactured from the commercial fitting materials and the welding process, which is equipped with an orifice type nozzle. The proposed ejector has a good integrity compared with the conventional ejector because the fittings have manufactured by forging and they have more strength than the casting materials. Furthermore we adopted a multi-opening orifice type nozzle for improving a suction capacity and compared with a single-opening orifice type nozzle. From the experimental results. we confirmed that the multi-opening nozzle had a food suction capacity than the single-opening nozzle and the proposed new type ejector showed higher vacuum than the conventional type ejector in non-load condition. These improved characteristics suggests that a new type ejector by using the commercial fittings opens the feasibility to be adopted in various industry fields and that the increased suction capacity can be achieved by altering the nozzle design of a conventional ejector.

Elastic-plastic shear buckling behaviors of the web-post in a Castellated Steel Beam (CSB) with hexagonal web openings under vertical shear force were investigated further using Finite Element Model (FEM) based on a sub-model, which took the upper part of the web-post under horizontal shear force to represent the whole web-post under vertical shear force. A simplified design method for the web-post elastic-plastic shear buckling strength was proposed based on simulation results of the sub-model. Proper boundary conditions were applied to the sub-model to assure that its behaviors were identical to those of the whole web-post. The equation to calculate the thin plate elastic shear buckling strength was adopted as the basic form to build the design equation for elastic-plastic buckling strength of the sub-model. Parameters that might affect the elastic-plastic shear buckling strength of the whole web-post were studied. After obtaining the vertical shear buckling strength of a sub-model through FEM, the shear buckling coefficient k can be obtained through the back analysis. A practical calculation method for k was proposed through curving fitting the parameter study results. The elastic-plastic shear buckling strength of the web-post calculated using the proposed shear buckling coefficient k agreed well with that obtained from the FEM and test results. And it was more precise than those obtained from EC3 based on the strut model.

이 연구에서는 단순 트러스 모델을 이용한 철근콘크리트 바닥판의 펀칭전단강도 평가방안을 제안하였다. 철근콘크리트 바닥판의 펀칭전단 해석의 본질적인 어려움을 극복하기 위해 집중하중이 작용하는 바닥판을 펀칭전단 파괴 형태에 기초하여 펀칭콘과 나머지 부분의 소구조체로 구분하였다. 펀칭콘의 강도는 이상화한 트러스의 경사압축부재의 강성도로써 유도되었다. 수평변위를 제어하고 있는 롤러지점의 수평방향 스프링 부재의 강성도는 펀칭콘 내에 포함된 철근에 의하여 결정되었다. 3차원 구조물의 2차원화에 따른 오차와 해석과정에 포함되지 않은 나머지 소구조체의 강성도 등에 기인하는 불확실성들을 포함하기 위하여 경사압축재의 초기각은 실험결과들에 대해 주인장 철근비를 변수로 수행된 회귀분석을 통하여 구하였다. 단순 트러스 모델로부터 구한 펀칭전단강도는 실험결과와의 비교에서 신뢰성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 단순 트러스 모델의 스냅스로우(snap-through)좌굴해석으로부터 구한 펀칭전단강도는 철근콘크리트 바닥판의 펀칭전단강도의 검토에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study introduces the supervised committee fuzzy model as a hybrid fuzzy model to predict compressive strength (CS) of geopolymers prepared from alumina-silica products. For this purpose, more than 50 experimental data that evaluated the effect of $Al_2O_3/SiO_2$, $Na_2O/Al_2O_3$, $Na_2O/H_2O$ and Na/[Na+K] on (CS) of geopolymers were collected from the literature. Then, three different Fuzzy Logic (FL) models (Sugeno fuzzy logic (SFL), Mamdani fuzzy logic (MFL), and Larsen fuzzy logic (LFL)) were adopted to overcome the inherent uncertainty of geochemical parameters and to predict CS. After validating the model, it was found that the SFL model is superior to MFL and LFL models, but each of the FL models has advantages to predict CS. Therefore, to achieve the optimal performance, the supervised committee fuzzy logic (SCFL) model was developed as a hybrid method to combine the benefits of individual FL models. The SCFL employs an artificial neural network (ANN) model to re-predict the CS of three FL model predictions. The results also show significant fitting improvement in comparison with individual FL models.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the cyclic behavior of the D-shaped dampers (DSD). Similarly, at first, the numerical model was calibrated using the experimental sample. Then, parametric studies were conducted in order to investigate the effect of the radius and thickness of the damper on energy dissipation, effective and elastic stiffness, ultimate strength, and equivalent viscous damping ratio (EVDR). An analytical equation for the elastic stiffness of the DSD was also proposed, which showed good agreement with experimental results. Additionally, approximate equations were introduced to calculate the elastic and effective stiffness, ultimate strength, and energy dissipation. These equations were presented according to the curve fitting technique and based on numerical results. The results indicated that reducing the radius and increasing the thickness led to increased energy dissipation, effective stiffness, and ultimate strength of the damper. On the other hand, increasing the radius and thickness resulted in an increase in EVDR. Moreover, the ratio of effective stiffness to elastic stiffness also played a crucial role in increasing the EVDR. The thickness and radius of the damper were evaluated as the most effective dimensions for reducing energy dissipation and EVDR.

In the present work, we investigated the effects of the carbon potential on the formation of carbide at the carburized surface and anti-pitting fatigue strength in the supercarburized steels. Two low carbon steels with different Cr concentrations were adopted and the repeated supercarburizing treatment carried out with the different carbon potential conditions. The microstructure and carbides at the supercarburized surface were observed by using optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. The microhardness test was performed and the hardness distribution and the effective case depth at the supercarburized surface were discussed. The roller pitting fatigue test was carried out and the fatigue strength was evaluated with different the carbon potential conditions. The microstructure of the fatigue specimen surface was observed by means of scanning electron microscope and scanning transmission electron microscope. Depending on the chemical composition of the steels and the carbon potential condition, the resistance of temper softening and pitting failure was influenced due to the carbide distribution and the formation of coarse network carbide. Thus, it was confirmed that the control of the carbide formation is a key factor to improve the anti-pitting fatigue strength in the supercarburized steels.
