The design shear strength equations of RC shear walls have been developed based on their performance under in-plane (IP) loads, thereby failing to account for the potential performance degradation of shear strength when subjected to simultaneous out-of-plane (OOP) loading. Most of the previous experimental studies on RC walls have been conducted in one direction under quasi-static conditions, and due to the difficulty in experimental planning, there is a lack of research on cyclic loading and results under multi-axial loading conditions. During an earthquake, shear walls may yield earlier than their design strength or fail unexpectedly when subjected to multi-directional forces, deviating from their intended failure mode. In this paper, nonlinear analysis in finite element models was performed based on the results of cyclic loading experiments on reinforced concrete shear walls of auxiliary buildings. To investigate the reduction trend in IP shear capacity concerning the OOP load ratio, parametric analysis was conducted using the shear wall FEM. The analysis results showed that as the magnitude of the OOP load increased, the IP strength decreased, with a more significant effect observed as the size of the opening increased. Thus, the necessity to incorporate this strength reduction as a factor for the OOP load effect in the wall design strength equation should be discussed by performing various parametric studies.

The load carrying capacity of a bridge needs to be properly assessed to operate the bridge safely and maintain it efficiently. For the evaluation of load carrying capacity considering the current state of a bridge, static and quasi-static loading tests with weight-controlled heavy trucks have been conventionally utilized. In these tests, the deflection (or strain) of the structural members loaded by the controlled vehicles are measured and analyzed. Using the measured data, deflection (or strain) correction factor and impact correction factor are calculated. These correction factors are used in the enhancement of the load carrying capacity of a bridge, reflecting the real state of a bridge. However, full or partial control of the traffic during the tests and difficulties during the installment of displacement transducers or strain gauges may cause not only inconvenience to the traffic but also the increase of the logistics cost and time. To overcome these difficulties, an alternative method is proposed using an excited response part of full measured ambient acceleration data by ordinary traffic on a bridge without traffic control. Based on the modal properties extracted from the ambient vibration data, the initial finite element (FE) model of a bridge can be updated to represent the current real state of a bridge. Using the updated FE model, the deflection of a bridge akin to the real value can be easily obtained without measuring the real deflection. Impact factors are obtained from pseudo-deflection, which is obtained by double-integration of the acceleration data with removal of the linear components on the acceleration data. For validation, a series of tests were carried out on a steel plategirder bridge of an expressway in Korea in four different seasons, and the evaluated load carrying capacities of the bridge by the proposed method are compared with the result obtained by the conventional load test method.

최근, 콘크리트 충전 강교각은 신속한 시공과 뛰어난 연성능력으로 인해 도심지에서 철근 콘크리트 교각의 대안이 되고 있다. 이러한 콘크리트 충전 강교각은 내진 설계에서도 훌륭한 성능을 발휘할 수 있으나 내진 설계의 가이드가 없어 내진 설계시 그 성능을 모두 반영하지 못하고 있는 상황이다. 이에 실제 적용을 위해 콘크리트 충전 강교각 실험으로부터 얻어진 실험치로부터 내진 설계에 지침이 될 수 있는 가이드를 제시하고자 한다. 콘크리트 충전 강교각과 일반 강교각의 연성 능력을 평가하기 위해 준 정적 반복 재하 실험을 수행하고, 지진 거동을 검증하기 위해 고베 지진을 입력 데이타로 한 유사 동적 실험을 수행한다. 콘크리트 충전 강교각은 일반 강교각에 비해 만족할 만한 연성도와 강도를 보이고, 동적 거동은 상대적으로 큰 이력감쇠를 증명한다. 실험으로 얻어진 데이터를 근거로 하여 콘크리트 충전 강교각의 내진 성능을 정량화 하고, 탄성응답 스펙트럼에 의한 지진응답 수정계수법과 유효 점성 감쇠를 이용한 성능 곡선 및 요구 스펙트럼에 의한 성능기초 설계법의 비교를 통하여, 콘크리트 충전 강교각과 일반 강교각의 내진 성능을 평가한다. 이러한 내진 성능 평가를 기초로 하여, 일반 강교각과 더불어 내진 설계에 적용할 수 있는 콘크리트 충전 강교각의 지진응답 수정계수를 제시한다.

The strain rate of reinforced concrete (RC) structures stimulated by earthquake action has been generally recognized as in the range from $10^{-4}/s$ to $10^{-1}/s$. Because both concrete and steel reinforcement are rate-sensitive materials, the RC beam-column joints are bound to behave differently under different strain rates. This paper describes an investigation of seismic behavior of RC beam-column joints which are subjected to large cyclic displacements on the beam ends with three loading velocities, i.e., 0.4 mm/s, 4 mm/s and 40 mm/s respectively. The levels of strain rate on the joint core region are correspondingly estimated to be $10^{-5}/s$, $10^{-4}/s$, and $10^{-2}/s$. It is aimed to better understand the effect of strain rates on seismic behavior of beam-column joints, such as the carrying capacity and failure modes as well as the energy dissipation. From the experiments, it is observed that with the increase of loading velocity or strain rate, damage in the joint core region decreases but damage in the plastic hinge regions of adjacent beams increases. The energy absorbed in the hysteresis loops under higher loading velocity is larger than that under quasi-static loading. It is also found that the yielding load of the joint is almost independent of the loading velocity, and there is a marginal increase of the ultimate carrying capacity when the loading velocity is increased for the ranges studied in this work. However, under higher loading velocity the residual carrying capacity after peak load drops more rapidly. Additionally, the axial compression ratio has little effect on the shear carrying capacity of the beam-column joints, but with the increase of loading velocity, the crack width of concrete in the joint zone becomes narrower. The shear carrying capacity of the joint at higher loading velocity is higher than that calculated with the quasi-static method proposed by the design code. When the dynamic strengths of materials, i.e., concrete and reinforcement, are directly substituted into the design model of current code, it tends to be insufficiently safe.

In order to determine the mechanical behavior of the curved laminates in practical applications, three right-angled composite brackets with different lay-ups were investigated both experimentally and numerically. In the experimental, quasi-static tests on both unidirectional and multidirectional curved composite brackets were conducted to study the progressive failure and failure modes of the curved laminates. In the numerical modeling, three-dimensional finite element analysis was used to simulate the mechanical behavior of the laminates. Here, a strength-based failure criterion, namely the Ye criterion, was used to predict the delamination failure in the composite curved laminates. The mechanical responses of the laminate subjected to off-axis tensile loading were analyzed, which include the progressive failure, the failure locations, the load-displacement relationships, the load-strain relationships, and the stress distribution around the curved region of the angled bracket. Subsequently, the effects of stacking sequence and thickness on the load carrying capacity and the stiffness of the laminates were discussed in detail. Through the experimental observation and analysis, it was found that the failure mode of all the specimens is delamination, which is initiated abruptly and develops unstably on the symmetric plane, close to the inner surface, and about $29^{\circ}$ along the circumferential direction. It was also found that the stacking sequence and the thickness have significant influences on both the load carrying capacity and the stiffness of the laminates. However, the thickness effect is less than that on the curved aluminum plate.

비산물체의 충돌 및 폭발, 테러 등의 극한하중에 의한 구조물의 붕괴는 재산상의 손실뿐만 아니라 다수의 인명피해를 유발한다. 일반적으로 콘크리트는 타 건설재료에 비해 충격 및 폭발 하중에 우수한 저항성능을 지니고 있다고 알려져 있으나, 준-정적(quasi-static)하중과는 달리 높은 변형률 속도를 갖는 극한하중을 고려하지 않고 설계된 기존의 콘크리트 구조물은 예상치 못한 극한하중에 노출될 경우 상당히 위험할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 콘크리트 보의 충격저항성능을 향상시키기 위해 길이 30 mm의 번들형 양단 hooked type의 강섬유를 전체 부피의 0%에서 1.5%까지 혼입하여 정하중 및 충격하중 휨 실험을 수행하고, 그 성능을 평가하였다. 실험 결과 강섬유의 혼입률을 증가시킬 경우 정하중뿐만 아니라 충격하중에서도 휨강도와 연성 등 휨 저항성능이 크게 향상되는 경향을 보였다. 강섬유를 인장부에 집중적으로 혼입한 층 구조 콘크리트 보의 경우에는 동일한 양의 섬유를 보 전체에 타설한 시편에 비해 휨 저항성능이 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 강섬유 보강 콘크리트의 재료적 비선형성을 고려하여 단자유도계(sing degree of freedom, SDOF) 시스템의 해석 알고리즘을 구성하고 실험 결과와 비교하였으며, 비교적 정확하게 최대 처짐을 예측하는 것으로 나타났다.

Since Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is normally carried at 1.1 bar pressure and at -163℃, special Cargo Containment System (CCS) are used. As LNG carrier is becoming larger, typical LNG insulation systems adopt a method to increase the thickness of insulation panel to reduce sloshing load and Boil-off Rate (BOR). However, this will decrease LNG cargo volume and increase insulation material costs. In this paper, silica aerogel, glass bubble were synthesized in polyurethane foam to increase volumetric efficiency by improving mechanical and thermal performance of insulation. In order to increase dispersibility of particles, ultrasonic dispersion was used. Dynamic impact test, quasi-static compression test at room temperature (20℃) and cryogenic temperature (-163℃) was evaluated. To evaluate the thermal performance, the thermal conductivity at room temperature (20℃) was measured. As a result, specimens without ultrasonic dispersion have a little effect on strength under the compressive load, although they show high mechanical performance under the impact load. In contrast, specimens with ultrasonic dispersion have significantly increased impact strength and compressive strength. Recently, as the density of Polyurethane foam (PUF) has been increasing, these results can be a method for improving the mechanical and thermal performance of insulation panel.
