The importance of the research on moment-resistant properties of unstiffened tubular joints and the research background are introduced. The performed experimental research on the bending rigidity and capacity of the joints is reported. The emphasis is put on the discussion of the flexural behavior of the joints including sets of geometrical parameters of the joints and several loading combinations. Procedures and results of loading tests on four full size joints in planar KK and X configuration are described in details at first. Mechanical models are proposed to analyze the joint specimens. Three-dimensional nonlinear FE models are established and verified with the experimental results. By comparing the experimental data with the results of the analysis, it is reported reasonable to carry out the structural analysis under the assumption that the joint is fully rigidly connected, and their bending capacities can assure the strength of the members connected under certain limitation. Furthermore, a parametric formula for inplane bengding rigidity of T and Y type tubular joints is proposed on the basis of FE calculation and regression analysis. Compared with test results, it is shown that the parametric formula developed in this paper has good applicability.

The behavior of a jointed rock mass depends mainly on the geometrical and mechanical properties of joints. The failure mode of a rock mass and kinematics of rock blocks are governed by the orientation, spacing, and persistence of joints. The mechanical properties such as dilation angle, shear strength, maximum closure, strength of asperities and friction coeffiient play important roles on the stability and deformation of the rock mass. The normal and shear behaviour of a joint are coupled due to dilation, and the joint deformation depends also on the boundary conditions such as stiffness conditons. In this paper, the joint constitutive law including the dilatant behaviour of a joint is numerically modelled using the edge-to-edge contact logic in distinct element method. Also, presented is the method to quantify the input parameters used in the joint law. The results from uniaxial compression and direct shear tests using the numeical model of the single joint were compared to the analytic results from them. The boundary effect on the behaviour of a joint is verified by comparing the results of direct shear test under constant stress boundary condition with those under constant stiffness boundary condition. The numerical model developed is applied to a complex jointed rock mass to examine its performance and to evaluate the effect of joint dilation on tunnel stability.

개별요소법은 암석블록의 회전, 활동, 이탈 등과 같은 절리암반의 불연속 거동을 모델링할 수 있는 큰 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 불연속면의 분포특성에 해석결과가 매우 민감한데 비하여 현장조사에 의한 절리자료는 매우 부족하다. 또한 개별요소법에서 절리는 블록간의 접촉으로 고려되기 때문에 적절한 절리법칙의 적용은 절리암반의 안정성 평가에 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 절리의 기하학적 특성과 역학적 특성을 고려한 개별요소해석을 수행하기 위하여 통계적 모델링 기법을 개발하였고 팽창성 암석절리법칙을 전산모델링 하였다. 통계적 모델링 기법은 부족한 현장 절리자료로부터 절리도를 재현함으로써 개별요소해석에 필요한 암석블록의 집합체를 제공한다. 또한 절리의 팽창성을 개별요소법의 변-변접촉에 도입함으로써 개별요소해석에서 절리면의 역학적 특성외에도 절리의 경계조건을 괴려할 수 있게 되었다. 통계적 개별요소모델을 위한 전처리 과정은 절리자료의 통계처리, 절리도 발생과 블록경계 발생으로 구성되며, 이 방법을 이용하여 절리의 기하학적 변수의 편차가 절리암반의 거동에 미치는 효과를 분석하였다. 통계적 모델링 기법은 해석자의 주관이 상당히 배제된 객관적인 해석을 수행할 수 있기 때문에 일관된 개별요소해석기법의 한 수단이 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서 적용한 팽창성 절리법칙은 절리의 전단거동과 수직거동간의 연성이 가능하며 실내시험에 의하여 필요한 입력변수를 정량적으로 결정하는 것이 용이하다. 단일절리에 대한 다양한 시험을 통하여 절리의 경계조건에 의해 영향을 받는 팽창성 절리의 거동특성을 분석하였다. 또한, 절리암반내 터널의 개별요소해석을 통하여 절리의 팽창특성이 터널의 안정성에 이바지함을 보였다.보품질로 측정하여 이들 요인이 EIP사용자의 직무성과에 미치는 영향에 관해 연구하였다. 본 논문은 EIP를 도입한 기업을 대상으로 EIP성과에 대한 연구를 진행하여 EIP를 도입하거나 구현중인 기업에게 적합한 경영관리적 방향을 제시할 수 있을 것이다.및 경험은 향후 상용설비를 위한 기본자료로 활용할 것이다.X>, 그리고 입원기간은 $21.6\pm14.3일(13\~56)$이었다. 수술 후 평균 CK-MB는 $11.3\pm14.1ng/mL$였다. 수술 후 조기 혈관 개존율은 $100\% (24/24)$였다. 모든 환자에서 완전 추적이 가능하였으며 평균 추적기간은 $20.4\pm15.2개월(5\~43)$이었다. 이 기간 중 사망환자나 흉통이 재발한 환자는 없었다. 걸론: 80세 이상 고령의 환자에서 OPCAB은 수술 후 합병증을 줄이고 좋은 결과를 보여 주었다. 그러므로 고령의 환자에서도 관상동맥우회술의 적응증이 되면 적극적으로 수술을 시행할 필요가 있으며, 수술방법은 OPCAB이 좋을 것으로 생각한다서 실용적 개발의 가능성을 보였다.에 따라 현저한 차이가 있었으며 Dimethoate처리$(30^{\circ}C,\; 0.2\%$액에서 24시간)에 의하여 볍씨의 호흡량이 감소되었다. 9) 산소호흡량과 평균발아소요일수와는 $\gamma=-0.945$로 부의 유의한 상관을 보였는데 산소호흡량이 많은 품종은 평균발아소요일수가 짧은 경향을 보였다. 10) 볍씨의 산소호흡량과 Dimethoate 처리에 의한 볍씨의 발아저해도와는 $\gamma=-0,771$의

This paper presents some proposed methods for discontinuum analysis with rock discontinuities data acquisited in tunnel design stage. The limit equilibrium method for rock block sliding and falling proposed in this paper can consider the tunnel excavation and support stage, and, to the extent, the standard deviations and means of joint set orientation. Simple Distinct Elemet modelling methods are recommended in estimating the stability of tunnels in jointed rock masses. Because, the simple models are likely to show more consistent and clear than very complex model with finite joint length and joint deviation parameters.

Since stainless steel sheets have good mechanical properties, weldability, appearance and corrosion resistance, they are commonly used as one of the structural materials of the railroad cars or the commercial vehicles which are manufactured by the spat welding. Among the many kinds of spot welded lap joints, it can be found that multi-lap joints are employed in their body structure. But, fatigue strength of these joints is lower than that of base metal due to high stress concentration at the nugget edge of spot weld and is considerably influenced by welding conditions as well as the mechanical and geometrical factors. Thus, it is necessary to establish a reasonable and systematic design criterion for the long life design of the spot-welded body structures. In this paper, the stress distribution and deformation around the spot-welded multi-lap joints subjected to tensile shear load was numerically analyzed. Also, the $\Delta$P-Nf curve was obtained by fatigue tests. Using these results, $\Delta$P-Nf curves were rearranged in to the ${\Delta}{\sigma}$-Nf relation with the maximum stress at nugget edge of spot weld.

We analyzed the experimental and theoretical behavior of a particular type of steel joint designed to connect beam to beam and able to transfer both shear forces and bending moments. This joint is characterized by the use of steel plates and bolts enclosed in the width of the beams. The experimental investigation was carried out characterizing the constituent materials and testing in flexure beams constituted by two portions of beams connected in the middle with the joint proposed. Connections having different characteristics in terms of thickness of plates, number and type of bolts were utilized. Flexure tests allow one to determine the loaddeflection curves of the beam tested and the moment-rotation diagrams of the connections, highlighting the strength and the strain capacity of the joints. The proposed analytical model allows one to determine the moment-rotation relationship of the connections, pointing out the influence of the principal geometrical and mechanic characteristics of single constituents on the full properties of the joint.

Objective: This study is aimed at developing Articulated Human Models(AHM) using superquadrics to improve the geometric accuracy of the body shape. Background: The previous work presents the AHM with geometrical simplification such as ellipsoids to improve analysis efficiency. However, because of the simplicity, their physical properties such as a center of mass and moment of inertia are computed with errors compared to their actual values. Method: This paper introduces a three steps method to present the AHM with superquadrics. First, a 3D whole body scan data are divided into 17 body segments according to body joints. Second, superquadric fitting is employed to minimize the Euclidean distance between body segments and superquadrics. Finally, Fee-Form Deformation is used to improve accuracy over superquadric fitting. Results: Our computational experiment shows that the superquadric models give better accuracy of dynamic analysis than that of ellipsoid ones. Conclusion: We generate the AHM composed of 17 superquadrics and 16 joints using superquadric fitting. Application: The AHM using superquadrics can be used as the base model for dynamics and ergonomics applications with better accuracy because it presents the human motion effectively.

Since stainless steel plates have good mechanical properties, weldability, appearance and resistance of corrosion, these are traditionally used for vehicles such as the bus and the train. And they are mainly fabricated by spot welding. But fatigue strength of their spot welded joint is considerably influenced by welding conditions as well as geometrical factors. Thus a reasonable and systematic criterion for long life design of spot welded body structure must be established. In this report, strain energy density was analyzed by using 3-dimensional finite element model about the IB-type spot welded lap joint under tension-shear load. Fatigue tests were conducted on them having various thickness, joint angle, lapped length and width. From their results, it was found that fatigue strength of the IB-type spot welded lap joints could be effectively and systematically rearranged by strain energy density at the edge of nugget.

Rock masses usually contain such features as bedding planes, faults, fissures, fractures, joints and other mechanical defects which, although formed from a wide range of geological processes, posses the common characteristics of low shear strength, negligible tensile strength and high fluid conductivity compared with the surrounding rock material. In the engineering context here, the discontinuities can be the single most important factor governing the deformability, strength and permeability of the rock mass. Moreover, a particularly large and persistent discontinuity could critically affect the stability of any surface or underground excavation. For these reasons, it is necessary to develop a thorough understanding of the geometrical, mechanical and hydrological properties of discontinuities and the way in which these will affect rock mechanics and hence rock engineering.

There are only few cases where cause and location of failure of a rock structure are limited to a single discontinuity. Usually several discontinuities of limited size interact and eventually form a combined shear plane where failure takes place. So, besides the discontinuities, the regions between adjacent discontinuities, which consist of strong rock and are called material or rock bridges, are of utmost importance for the shear strength of the compound failure plane. Shear behaviour of persistent and non-persistent joint are different from each other. Shear strength of rock mass containing non-persistent joints is highly affected by mechanical behavior and geometrical configuration of non-persistent joints located in a rock mass. Therefore investigation is essential to study the fundamental failures occurring in a rock bridge, for assessing anticipated and actual performances of the structures built on or in rock masses. The purpose of this review paper is to present techniques, progresses and the likely future development directions in experimental testing of non-persistent joint failure behaviour. Experimental results showed that the presence of rock bridges in not fully persistent natural discontinuity sets is a significant factor affecting the stability of rock structures. Compared with intact rocks, jointed rock masses are usually weaker, more deformable and highly anisotropic, depending upon the mechanical properties of each joint and the explicit joint positions. The joint spacing, joint persistency, number of rock joint, angle of rock joint, length of rock bridge, angle of rock bridge, normal load, scale effect and material mixture have important effect on the failure mechanism of a rock bridge.
