For evaluating equations of bursting force in different codes, comparative study of the formulas was conducted. Because the equations does not consider variables such as shape of anchorages, angle of tendons, and eccentricity, a relation between the bursting forces and the variables has to be analyzed. In this paper, therefore, a comparative analysis of bursting forces computed by equations in the codes and finite element analysis was performed. As a result, it could be figured out that bursting force equations in the local zone were determined by coefficient k.

A low temperature process technology of copper thin films has been developed by a chemical vapor deposition technology for multi-level metallzations in ULSI fabrication. The copper films were deposited on TiN/Si substrates in helium atmosphere with the substrate temperature between $130^{\circ}C$ and $250^{\circ}C$. In order to get more reliable metallizations, effects on the post-annealing treatment to the electrical properties of the copper films have been investigated. The Cu films were annealed at the $5 \times10^{-6}$ Torr vacuum condition and the electrical resistivity and the nano-structures were measured for the Cu films. The electrical resistivity of Cu films shown to be reduced by the post-annealing. The electrical resistivity of 2.0 $\mu \Omega \cdot \textrm{cm}$ was obtained for the sample deposited at the substrate temperature of $180^{\circ}C$ after vacuum annealed at $300^{\circ}C$. The resistivity variations of the films was not exactly matched with the size of the nano-structures of the copper grains, but more depended on the contamination of the copper films.

Copper thin films are prepared by a chemical vapor deposition technology for multi-level metallzations in ULSI fabrication. The copper films were deposited on TiN/Si substrates in helium atmosphere with the substrate temperature between $120^{\circ}C$ and $300^{\circ}C$. In order to get more reliable metallizations, effects on the post-annealing treatment to the electrical properties of the copper films have been investigated. The Cu films were annealed at the $5\times$10^{-6}$ Torr vacuum condition, and the electrical resistivity and the nano-structures were measured for the Cu films. The electrical resistivity of Cu films shown to be reduced by the post-annealing. The electrical resistivity of 2.2 $\mu$$\Omega$.cm was obtained for the sample deposited at the substrate temperature of $180^{\circ}C$ after vacuum annealed at $300^{\circ}C$. The resistivity variations of the films was not exactly matched with the size of the nato-structures of the copper grains, but more depended on the deposition temperature of the copper films.

In this study, load transfer tests based on KCI-PS101 were conducted to verify the performance of spiral anchorage zone reinforcement for banded post-tensioning (PT) monostrands. With results, the compressive strength of spiral reinforcement was increased by about 20% than that of specimens with two horizontal steel bars and 8% than that of U-shaped bars. Advanced spiral reinforcement for corner increases compressive strength and can resist the spalling forces or fall-out effect at the corner by shear. The ratio of maximum load to amount of steel of the spiral reinforcement is about twice than that of U-shaped reinforcement. With increase of compressive strength capacity and improvement of constructability, the spiral reinforcement is considered to have advantages of promoting the performance of PT anchorage zone compared to conventional methods.

This paper presents the results of an investigation into the post-buckling behaviour and ultimate strength of imperfect corroded steel plates used in ship and other marine-related structures. A series of elastic-plastic large deflection finite element analyses is performed on randomly corroded steel plates. The effects of general corrosion on both sides of the plates are introduced into the finite element models using a random thickness surface model. The effects on plate compressive strength as a result of parametric variation of the corroded surface geometry are evaluated. A proposal on the effective thickness is concluded in order to estimate the ultimate strength and explore the post-buckling behaviour of randomly corroded steel plates under uniaxial compression.

Recently, concrete expansion anchors which are a type of post-installed mechanical anchors are widely used in reinforcement concrete structures. In order to be used in the reinforced concrete structures designed in accordance with ACI 318-19 or ACI 349-13, the structural performance tests of the concrete expansion anchors should be conducted in accordance with ACI 355.2. The effectiveness factor(k) of concrete expansion anchors should be determined through the reference tests and used for the design of anchorage to concrete according to ACI 318-19 or ACI 349-13. In this study, we will look into the method for determining the effectiveness factor(k) of concrete expansion anchors and anchorage design process of concrete expansion anchors by using the effectiveness factor(k) in accordance with ACI 349-19.

There are normally two types of the energy absorbers used in the crashworthiness of trains. The first is a structure type, which mainly used in not only the primary structures of the train but also the crash energy absorbers at the accident. The second is a module type, which just absorbs the crash energy independent of the primary structures and attached to the structures of the train. The expansion and inversion tube are widely used as the module type crash energy absorbers, especially in the train. The tubes should not be buckled under the load acting on the end of the tube in longitudinal direction during absorbing the crash energy. The buckling stability of the tubes is affected by the boundary conditions, thickness and length of tube. In this study, the effects of the length and thickness of the tubes on the buckling load are studied by using the ABAQUS, a commercial finite element analysis program, and then presents the guideline to design the tube. The analysis processes to compute the buckling load consist of a linear buckling analysis and a nonlinear post-buckling analysis. The buckling modes are evaluated by the linear buckling analysis, as using these modes, the buckling loads are computed by the nonlinear post-buckling analysis.

This study developed career education program applying cooperative learning structures (Kagan, 1993, 1995, 1997), and tested its effect on elementary school children's career development. Sixth grade students of 2 classes were divided into experimental and control group, and 14 sessions of the program were applied to the experimental group for 8 weeks. Career development test(Lee, 2005) were performed before and after the program. Students in both groups were retested 3 months after the post-test to test continuing effects of the program. Score tendencies and their differences between experimental group and control group of children in 3 career development areas - self-awareness, educational and occupational exploration, and career planing - were tested and the results are as follows: development of 3 areas of self-awareness, educational and occupational exploration, and career planing were consistently increasing along the experimental sequence in experimental group, while the development of 3 areas showed no changes or declining tendencies in control group. Self-awareness and educational and occupational exploration did not show the statistically significant differences between the groups. Meanwhile, the career plaining showed statistically significant difference between the groups in post-test, meaning that the career education program with cooperative structure has positive effects on the career planing in 6th grade students.

Circular cylindrical tubes are widely used in structures such as vehicles and aircraft structures, where light weight and high compressive/bending/torsional load carrying capacity are required. When axially compressed, relatively thick circular cylindrical tubes deform in a so-called ring mode. Each ring develops and completely collapses one by one until the entire length of the tube collapses. During the collapse process the tube absorbs a large amount of energy. Like honey-comb structures, circular cylindrical tubes are light weighted, are capable of high axial compressive load, and absorb a large amount of energy before being completely collapsed. In this report, the subject of axial plastic buckling of circular cylindrical tubes was reviewed first. Then, the axial collapse process of the tubes in a so-called ring mode was studied both experimentally and numerically. In the experiment, steel tubes were axially compressed slowly until they were completely collapsed. Fixed boundary condition was provided. Numerical study involves axisymmetric, elastic-plastic, large deflection, self-contact mechanisms. The measured and calculated results were presented and compared with each other. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the load carrying capacity and the energy absorbing capacity of the tube.

The self-centering capacity and energy dissipation performance have been recognized critically for increasing the seismic performance of structures. This paper presents an innovative steel moment frame with self-centering steel reinforced concrete (SRC) wall panel incorporating replaceable energy dissipation devices (SF-SCWD). The self-centering mechanism and energy dissipation mechanism of the structure were validated by cyclic tests. The earthquake resilience of wall panel has the ability to limit structural damage and residual drift, while the energy dissipation devices located at wall toes are used to dissipate energy and reduce the seismic response. The oriented post-tensioned strands provide additional overturning force resistance and help to reduce residual drift. The main parameters were studied by numerical analysis to understand the complex structural behavior of this new system, such as initial stress of post-tensioning strands, yield strength of damper plates and height-width ratio of the wall panel. The static push-over analysis was conducted to investigate the failure process of the SF-SCWD. Moreover, nonlinear time history analysis of the 6-story frame was carried out, which confirmed the availability of the proposed structures in permanent drift mitigation.
