There is an indispensable need for force calibration for quantitative nanoscale force measurement using atomic force microscopy. Calibrating the normal force is relatively straightforward, whereas doing so for the lateral force is often complicated because of the difficulty in determining the optical lever sensitivity. In particular, the lateral force calibration of a colloidal probe in a liquid environment often has a larger uncertainty as a result of the effects of the epoxy, the location of the colloidal particle on the cantilever, and a decrease in the quality factor. In this work, the lateral force of a colloidal probe using a reference cantilever with a known spring constant was calibrated in a liquid environment. By obtaining the spring constant and the lateral sensitivity at the equator of a spherical colloidal particle, the damage to the bottom surface of the colloidal particle could be eliminated. Further, it was shown that the effect of the contact stiffness on the determination of the lateral spring constant of the cantilever could be minimized. It was concluded that this method can be effectively used for the lateral force calibration of a colloidal probe in a liquid environment.

This study was carried out to evaluate the mechano-sorptive deflection of shear creep of drift pin jointed solid wood. Specimens were the solid wood of Pinus densiflora. The joint was composed with steel plate and drift pin, 85mm in length and 10mm in diameter. The creep tests were conducted under the constant loads in an variable environment. Five different shearing loads were applied parallel to the grain of specimens. The shearing loads applied were 170, 340, 510, 680 and 850 kgf. The stress levels were 10, 20, and 30, 40 and 50% of the bearing strength obtained from the tension-type lateral strength test. The creep tests for specimens were carried out for 10300 hours. A few general conclusions could be drawn from this study: The mechano-sorptive deflection (${\delta}$ ms) is defined as ${\delta}\;ms={\delta}\;t-({\delta}\;c+{\delta}\;sh)-{\delta}\;o$, where ${\delta}$ t is the total deflection, ${\delta}$ c is the pure creep, ${\delta}$ sh is shrinkage-swelling behavior, and ${\delta}$ o is the initial deflection. Changes of relative humidity may cause more severe creep deflection than those of constant humidity, especially during the drying process. The mechano-sorptive behaviors of specimens, except the effects of shrinkage and swelling, gradually increased with increasing time. The deflection is increased in desorption process and recovered in adsorption process. The deflections of drift pin jointed solid wood under different loads showed almost same tendency in all specimens. Although the creep deflection tendencies of each series are very similar, the specimens subjected to a large shearing load exhibit large creep deflections in the desorption process than do those to the small shearing load specimens.

This study reported, the effect of random variation in system properties on bending response of single wall carbon nanotube reinforced composite (SWCNTRC) plates subjected to transverse uniform loading is examined. System parameters such as the SWCNT armchair, material properties, plate thickness and volume fraction of SWCNT are modelled as basic random variables. The basic formulation is based on higher order shear deformation theory to model the system behaviour of the SWCNTRC composite plate. A C0 finite element method in conjunction with the first order perturbation technique procedure developed earlier by the authors for the plate subjected to lateral loading is employed to obtain the mean and variance of the transverse deflection of the plate. The performance of the stochastic SWCNTRC composite model is demonstrated through a comparison of mean transverse central deflection with those results available in the literature and standard deviation of the deflection with an independent First Order perturbation Technique (FOPT), Second Order perturbation Technique (SOPT) and Monte Carlo simulation.

본 논문은 낙동강 유역의 사질토 지반에서 수평하중을 받는 강관 말둑의 수평거동을 모형실첨을 통해 관찰하였다. 븐 연구의 목적은 말뚝의 수평거동(하중-변위 잔계,지반내 말뚝의 모멘트 분포, 최대 모멘트-변위 관계 등)에 대한 말뚝의 강성, 말뚝의 근입길이, 지반의 상대밀도, 하중 재하속도, 말뚝두부의 구속조건, 그리고 지반내의 비균질토의 영향에 관하여 실험적인 연구를 수행하고 이러한 영향들을 정량화 할 수 있는 결과들을 얻고자 한다. 비선형적인 하중-변위 관계는 모형실험의 결과들로부터 2차 곡선방정식으로 회귀분석하여 구하였으며, 임의 수평 변위에 대한 수평하중, 항복하중, 극한하중 그리고 최대 휭모멘트와 항복쉽모멘트는 상대밀도를 포함하는 지수함수식의 형태로 회귀분석하여 구하였다. 수평 극한하중에 관한 Brom's의 이론 결과와 실험결과 비교에서, 짧은 말뚝과 긴 말뚝의 결과가 서로 반대로 나타난 것은 가정한 지반반력이 깊은 지점에서 낙동강 사질토의 지반반력보다 작아서 나타나는 것으로 판단된다. 균질충과 비균질토 지반의 수평거동 비교에서, 하부지반의 상 대밀도보다 상부지반의 상대 밀도가 하중-변위관계에 더 큰 영향을 끼치고 있으며, 하부와 상부 지반의 상대밀도 차가 클수록 그런현상은 뚜렷하게 나타났다.

연약지반에서 측방 유동에 의해 주변 지반에 큰 변형을 일으키며 이로 인하여 말뚝기초에 손상을 입히게 된다. 이러한 경우 설치된 말뚝을 수동말뚝이라 하며 편재하중이 작용하게 되고 이로 인해 측방토압을 받게 되며 측방변위가 발생하여 상부구조물에 영향을 미치게 된다. 그러나 국내의 경우 이러한 말뚝과 교대 변위간의 관계에 대한 예측 및 메커니즘에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 교대이동에 대한 해석을 위해 입체, 판 및 프레임 요소를 복합적으로 해석할 수 있는 연성 3차원 유한요소해석 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 연성해석 프로그램을 이용하여 연약지반상 형상비(두께-지름비, t/D비)를 변수로 한 교대강관파일의 변형특성을 명확히 하였다.

파사드리거는 아웃리거 구조시스템에 rms거하는 것으로 구조물의 외곽에 설치되는 파사드리거는 구조물의 내부에 수직으로 설치된 가새골조로부터 분리되어 구조물의 외곽에 설치된다. 따라서 이 시스템은 중앙의 코아에 부착되는 아웃리거와는 달리 사재로 인한 내부 동선의 장애가 발생하지 않는 장점이 있다. 리거의 현재에 인접한 슬래브가 파사드리거와 가새골조 사이의 전단력을 전달하며 가새골조와 파사드리거를 지지하는 기둥 사이의 상호작용을 일으킨다. 이 논문에서는 등분포하중과 삼각분포하중, 그리고 구조물 상단에 집중하중이 작용하고 구조물의 외곽에 여러개의 파사드리거가 설치된 가새골조에 대한 근사해석방법을 제시하였으며, 구조모델들을 이용하여 MIDAS프로그램에 의한 결과와 비교하였고 만족할만한 결과를 얻었다. 본 연구에서 제시된 매트릭스 해석방법은 구조물 상단의 수평변위나 가새골조 하단의 전도모멘트와 같은 구조물의 거동에 대한 파사드리거의 영향을 신속하게 평가할 수 있으며 구조물 상단의 변위를 최소화할 수 있는 파사드리거의 최적위치 결정을 위해 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

Liquefaction-induced lateral spreading has been the most extensive damage to pile foundations during earthquakes. However, a case of pile failure was reported despite the fact that a large margin of safety factor was employed in their design. This means that the current seismic design method of pile is not agreeable with the actual failure mechanism of pile. Newly proposed failure mechanism of pile is a pile failure based on buckling instability. In this study, failure behavior of pile embedded in liquefied soil deposits was analyzed considering lateral spreading and buckling instability performing 1g shaking table test. As a result, it can be concluded that the pile subjected to excessive axial loads ($near\;P_{cr}$) can fail by buckling instability during liquefaction. When lateral spreading took place in sloping grounds, lateral spreading increased lateral deflection of pile and reduced the buckling load, promoting more rapid collapse. In addition, buckling shape of pile was observed. In the ease of pile buckling, hinge formed at the middle of the pile, not at the bottom. And in sloping grounds, location of hinge got loiter compared with level ground because of the effects of lateral spreading.

Enhanced vertical load capacity of the ground reinforced with the stone columns drew great attention by the researchers as it deals with many of the geotechnical difficulties associated with the weak ground. Recently, it has been found that the stone columns are also prone to fail under the shear load when employed beneath the embankments or the foundations susceptible to lateral loads. In this study, the effect of various encasement conditions on the lateral deflection of stone columns is investigated. A method of dual layers of encasement has been introduced and its the effect on lateral load capacity of the stone columns has been compared with those of the single encased stone column and the un-encased stone columns. Large shear box tests were utilised to generate the shear deformation on the soil system under various normal pressure conditions. The stiffness of the soil-stone column combined system has been compared for various cases of encasement conditions with different diameters. When subjected to lateral deformation, the encased columns outperformed the un-encased stone columns installed in loose sand. Shear stress resistance is up to 1.7 times greater in dual-layered, encased columns than in unencased columns. Similarly, the secant modulus increases as the condition changes from an unencased stone column to single-layer encasement and then to dual-layer encasement, indicating an improvement in the overall soil-stone column system.

본 연구에서는 말뚝-지반의 상호작용을 고려한 Pile-Bent 구조물의 수평하중 해석기법을 제안하였다. 특히, 수평하중이 작용하는 Pile-Bent 구조물의 특성을 고려한 재료의 항복거동과 기하학적 비선형 거동인 $P-{\Delta}$ 효과를 해석기법에 도입하였다. 개발한 해석기법상의 현장타설 말뚝은 보-기둥 모델을 적용하였으며 지반은 비선형 하중전이 함수를 이용하였다. 본 연구결과, 강하부 일체형인 Pile-Bent 구조물의 경우 해석방법(재료의 탄성 또는 비탄성)에 따라 수평변위의 차가 크게 발생하였다. 재료의 항복거동만 고려할 경우 최대 휨 모멘트($M_{max}$)는 지표 아래의 약 3.5D(D는 말뚝직경) 깊이에서 발생되었으며, 재료의 항복거동과 $P-{\Delta}$ 효과를 모두 고려할 경우 $M_{max}$의 지점이 다소 상승하여 지표 아래 약 1.5D 깊이에서 발생하였다. 세장비에 따른 재료의 항복 및 $P-{\Delta}$ 효과는 단주일 경우에는 재료의 항복거동이, 장주일 경우에는 $P-{\Delta}$ 효과에 의한 기하학적 비선형 거동이 수평변위의 주요 영향인자임을 확인하였다.

This investigation deals with a size-dependent coupled thermoelasticity analysis based on Green-Naghdi (GN) theory in nano scale using a new modified nonlocal model of heat conduction, which is based on the GN theory and nonlocal Eringen theory of elasticity. In the analysis based on the proposed model, the nonlocality is taken into account in both heat conduction and elasticity. The governing equations including the equations of motion and the energy balance equation are derived using the proposed model in a nano beam resonator. An analytical solution is proposed for the problem using the Laplace transform technique and Talbot technique for inversion to time domain. It is assumed that the nano beam is subjected to sinusoidal thermal shock loading, which is applied on the one of beam ends. The transient behaviors of fields' quantities such as lateral deflection and temperature are studied in detail. Also, the effects of small scale parameter on the dynamic behaviors of lateral deflection and temperature are obtained and assessed for the problem. The proposed GN-based model, analytical solution and data are verified and also compared with reported data obtained from GN coupled thermoelasticity analysis without considering the nonlocality in heat conduction in a nano beam.
