  • CWR(Continuous Welded Rail) and bridge interaction produce rail force, bridge displacement and rail/bridge relative displacement. Each of these has limitation by many codes. In this paper, analysis of interaction has been carried out by using foreign codes(UIC 774-3 R code of Europe etc.) because there is no code about interaction between rail and bridge in Korea. Recently, railway bridges with CWR has been constructed for structural and economical reasons. When designer plans railway bridges, design a bridge model first and then investigate railway forces and displacement by interaction analysis. If these results go out bounds from limitation, designer plans railway bridges again and again. In this paper, using the parametric study on CWR and railway bridge interaction, railway bridge parameters such as length of bridge span, area of bridge, moment of inertia, stiffness of pier, etc. are presented. It helps preliminary design of railway bridges.

  • Fluid/structure interaction (FSI) analysis is necessary to predict the response of a system in which aerodynamic pressure causes deformation of the structure, and vice versa. In dealing with a nonlinear behavior of the structure, however, a simple iterative algorithm of aerodynamic analysis with structural analysis yields no accurate results since aerodynamic pressure need to be changed in accordance with the deformation of structures. In this study, we explore an efficient and accurate method for integrating FSI analysis into structural nonlinear systems. During the course of nonlinear structural analysis, loading conditions are periodically updated by aerodynamic analysis. The accuracy and efficiency of the method is demonstrated with a high-aspect-ratio flexible wing of Global Hawk.

  • RC shear walls are considered one of the main lateral resisting members in buildings. In recent years, FRP has been widely utilized in order to strengthen and retrofit concrete structures. A number of experimental studies used CFRP sheets as an external bracing system for retrofitting of RC shear walls. It has been found that the common mode of failure is the debonding of the CFRP-concrete adhesive material. In this study, behavior of RC shear wall was investigated with three different micro models. The analysis included 2D model using plane stress element, 3D model using shell element and 3D model using solid element. To allow for the debonding mode of failure, the adhesive layer was modeled using cohesive surface-to-surface interaction model at 3D analysis model and node-to-node interaction method using Cartesian elastic-plastic connector element at 2D analysis model. The FE model results are validated comparing the experimental results in the literature. It is shown that the proposed FE model can predict the modes of failure due to debonding of CFRP and behavior of CFRP strengthened RC shear wall reasonably well. Additionally, using 2D plane stress model, many parameters on the behavior of the cohesive surfaces are investigated such as fracture energy, interfacial shear stress, partial bonding, proposed CFRP anchor location and using different bracing of CFRP strips. Using two anchors near end of each diagonal CFRP strips delay the end debonding and increase the ductility for RC shear walls.

  • This study has examined the structural relationship among factors related to the effects of flipped learning using the structural equation modeling. Two hundred thirty-six middle school and high school students were participated in this study. This study's results are as follows. First, looking through how much the flipped learning variables affect achievement, motivation affects achievement the most, and then interaction, participation come next. Second, looking through how much the flipped learning variables affect personality, interaction affect personality the most, and then teaching attitudes come next. Third, as a result of verifying the research model, the hypothetical model indicating relationship among motivation, participation, teaching attitudes, interaction and achievement, personality is valid.

  • In this study, one-way fluid structure interaction analysis(FSI) on wind turbine blade was performed. Both a quantitative fluid analysis on 3-bladed wind turbine and a structural analysis using the surface pressure data resulting from fluid analysis were carried out. Streamlines and angle of attack was easily acquired from analysis results, we showed the inlet velocity that the stall begins to occur. In the structural analysis, structural displacement and maximum stress of the two comparative models was calculated. The location that has maximum stress was found. The pressure difference between back and front part of the blade increases as the inlet velocity increase. The torque and maximum with regard to inlet velocity was also presented.

  • The ILM(incremental launching method) bridge, which is one of PS(prestressed) concrete bridge construction methods is widely adopted in Korea owing to its effectiveness for the quality control in construction. The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural behavior of ILM bridge proceeding with tapered sectional launching nose. This study presents basic technical materials to achieve the optimum design for superstructure and launching nose of ILM bridge. First this study introduces an equation to analyze the interaction between launching nose and superstructure. In this process, relative length, weight, and flexural stiffness between launching nose and superstructure are considered as investigating parameters. Second, the effects of superstructure resulting from these parameters is estimated analyzed by using the induced equations.

  • The structural behavior of superstructure by ILM is strongly dependent on the process of launching nose according to the construction process. The ratios of length, weight, and flexural stiffness of launching nose to those of superstructure are taken as the analysis parameters in this study. The interaction behaviors are analyzed according to the variation of parameters. Design formulas to pursue the optimum values for length, weight, and stiffness of launching nose are suggested through the parametric study. As a result, the minimum stiffness ratio is analyzed as I₂/I=0.045 and I₁/I=0.02 for the optimum track of the sectional force while the elastics modulus ratio is 6.8359. Additionally, the design results of real projects are analyzed by the developed formulas to verify that they are designed well in structurally optimal point of view.
