This paper focuses on the study of seismic behavior of steel reinforced concrete special-shaped column-beam joints. Six specimens, which are designed according to the principle of strong-member and weak-joint core, are tested under low cyclic reversed load. Key parameters include the steel form in column section and the ratio of column limb height to thickness. The failure mode, load-displacement curves, ductility, stiffness degradations, energy dissipation capacity and shear deformation of joint core of the test subassemblies are analyzed. The results indicate that SRC special-shaped column-beam joints have good seismic behavior. All specimens failed due to the shear failure of the joint core, and the failure degree between the two sides of joint core is similar for the exterior joint but different for the corner joint. Compared to the joints with channel steel truss, the joints with solid web steel skeleton illustrate better ductility and energy dissipation capacity, but the loading capacity and stiffness are roughly close. With the increasing of the ratio of column limb height to thickness, the joints illustrate higher loading capacity and stiffness, better energy dissipation capacity, but worse ductility.

A novel microstrip low-pass filter is presented to achieve an ultra-wide stopband with 11 harmonic suppression and very sharp skirt characteristics. The filter is composed of a modified U-shaped resonator (which creates two fully adjustable transmission zeroes), a T-shaped resonator (which determines a cut-off frequency), and four radial stubs (which provide a wider stopband). The operating mechanism of the filter is investigated based on a proposed equivalent-circuit model, and the role of each section of the proposed filter in creating null points is theoretically discussed in detail. The presented filter with 3 dB cut-off frequency ($f_c=2.35GHz$) has been fabricated and measured. Results show that a relative stopband bandwidth of 164% (referred to as a 22 dB suppression) is obtained while achieving a high figure-of-merit of 15,221.

일축대칭의 단면특성을 갖는 T형 부재는 단면의 특성상 축방향 압축력으로 인하여 전체좌굴이 발생할 경우 휨-비틀림 좌굴이 지배모드가 된다. 인발성형 T형 부재의 휨-비틀림 좌굴거동을 실험적 연구를 통하여 알아보았다. E-glass/vinylester와 E-glass/polyester로 만들어진 2종류의 인발성형 부재가 사용되었으며, 보강층의 배치, 보강층의 두께, 구성물질의 부피비, 역학적 성질 등을 실험적으로 규명하였다. 좌굴실험에서 휨 및 비틀림에 대한 단순지지 조건을 만족시키기 위해서 knife edge를 사용하였으며, 3개의 potentiometer를 사용하여 실험체의 횡변위와 비틀림각을 측정하였다. 모든 실험체에 휨-비틀림 좌굴이 발행하였으며, 대부분의 실험체가 후좌굴 강도를 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The objective of this study is to experimentally scrutinize the axial performance of built-up concrete filled steel tube (CFT) columns composed of steel plates. In this case, the main parameters cross section types, compressive strength of filled concrete, and the effect of welding lines. Welded built-up steel box columns are fabricated by connecting two pieces of cold-formed U-shaped or four pieces of L-shaped thin steel plates with continuous penetration groove welding line located at mid-depth of stub column section. Furthermore, traditional square steel box sections with no welding lines are investigated for the comparison of axial behavior between the generic and build-up cross sections. Accordingly, 20 stub columns with thickness and height of 2 and 300 mm have been manufactured. As a result, welding lines in built-up specimens act as stiffeners because have higher strength and thickness in comparison to the plates. Subsequently, by increasing the welding lines, the load bearing capacity of stub columns has been increased in comparison to the traditional series. Furthermore, for specimens with the same confinement steel tubes and concrete core, increment of B/t ratio has reduced the ductility and axial strength.

Structural performance of the walls subjected to lateral load reversals depends on various parameters such as loading history, sectional shape, reinforcement, lateral confinement, aspect ratio, axial compression, etc. Thus, the performance of the shearwall for wall-type apartment should be evaluated properly considering above parameters. This study investigates the effect of sectional shape on the structural performance of the wall. Sectional shape of the specimen is rectangular, barbell and T. Based on this experimental results, all specimens behaved as ductile fashion and failed by concrete crushing of the compression zone. Deformation index of those specimens evaluated better than 3 of ductility ratio, and 1.5% of deformability specified by seismic provision. Moreover, the performance of the rectangular shaped specimen, whose compression zone was confined with U-bar and cross tie, was as good as the barbell shaped specimen. Therefore, if we considered construction practice such as workmanship and detailing, shearwall with rectangular section may be more economical lateral load resisting system.

본 연구는 반복 수평하중을 받는 철근 콘크리트 T형 벽체의 횡철근의 구속범위를 제안하기 위한 것이다. 횡철근의 구속범위는 압축과 인장변형율 분포에 의해 좌우되는 중립축을 기준으로 압축변형율과 콘크리트 극한 변형율의 분포에 따라 결정된다. 압축변형율은 바닥층 평면적에 대한 벽 단면비, 형상비, 단면형상, 압축력, 그리고 철근비 등에 따라 다르게 나타난다. T형 벽체의 중립축은 플랜지의 영향으로 정가력과 부가력이 다르게 나타나며, T형 벽체의 중립축이 직사각형 벽체와 다르기 때문에 압축콘크리트를 구속하여 주는 횡철근의 구속범위가 다르게 나타날 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 좌우 대칭으로 배근되는 직사각형 벽체는 반복적인 수평하중에 대해 좌우 대칭인 구조적 특성을 나타내지만, T형 벽체의 경우는 좌우 비대칭적인 구조적 특성을 보인다. 즉, 복부 단부가 압축을 받는 정가력인 경우, 중립축 깊이(c)가 직사각형 벽체보다 크게 나타나며, 복부 단부가 인장을 받는 부가력인 경우, 중립축 깊이(c)가 직사각형 벽체보다 작게 나타난다. 그러므로, T형 벽체를 직사각형 벽체로 가정하여 좌우대칭으로 횡철근을 구속할 경우, 압축을 받는 복부 단부에서 요구되는 횡철근의 구속범위가 증가할 것으로 판단된다 따라서, 본연구에서는 T형 벽체의 구조적 특성을 파악하고, 실험값과 기존분석 및 단면해석을 비교함으로써 T형 벽체의 중립축 깊이를 제시하였다.

기존 보강에 대한 연구는 대부분 장방형 보에 대해 휨 보강에 대한 연성 및 내력 증대에 대하여 주로 연구가 되었다. 그리고 일반적으로 철근콘크리트 보-슬래브 구조에서는 시공의 특성상 보와 슬래브의 콘크리트가 동시에 부어넣기되기 때문에 경화 후 일체가 되어 인접한 슬래브는 보의 플랜지를 이루어 보의 강성을 높이고 압축응력을 지지하는 면적을 넓혀 주는 T형보단면을 갖지만 T형보의 휨 거동에 대해 유용한 자료는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 철근콘크리트 T형보를 제작하여 보강재 종류와 위치별로 전단 보강을 실시하여 보강효과 및 구조적 특성을 파악하였으며 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 각종 실험결과를 종합한바, 탄소섬유막대 보강은 콘크리트 내부에 매입되어 일체 거동함으로써 파괴시 거동 및 내력 및 강성 향상 면에서 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 강판 보강은 강성 및 전단내력은 증대 되었으나 보강강도는 큰데 반해 콘크리트와 부착성 저하에 의해 낮은 보강효과를 보였다. 섬유시트 보강은 보강효과는 우수하나 파괴 시 부착성의 한계로 의해 계면박리가 나타나 이에 대한 대책이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The plane strain analysis for simulating the stretch/draw forming operation with an arbitrarily-shaped tool profile is introduced. An implicit, incremental, updated Lagrangian formulation with a rigid-viscoplastic constitutive equation is employed. Contact and friction are considered through the mesh-normal, which compatibly describes arbitrary tool surfaces and FEM meshes without depending on the explicit spatial derivatives of tool surfaces. The linear line elements are used for depicting the formed sheet, based on membrane approximation. The FEM formulation is tested in the sections of automotive inner panel and two-side draw-in. Not only the excellent agreement between measured and computed strains is obtained in the stretched section, but also the numerical stability of formulation is verified in the draw-in section.

Application of reduced web beam section (RWBS) as a sacrificial fuse element has become a popular research field in recent years. Weakening of beam web in these connections may cause local web buckling around the opening area which can affect cyclic behavior of connection including: maximum load carrying capacity, strength degradation rate, dissipated energy, rotation capacity, etc. In this research, effect of local web buckling on the cyclic behavior of RWBS connections is investigated using finite element modeling (FEM). For this purpose, a T-shaped moment connection which has been tested under cyclic loading by another author is used as the reference model. Fracture initiation in models is simulated using Cyclic Void Growth Model (CVGM) which is based on micro-void growth and coalescence. Included in the results are: effect of opening corner radii, opening dimensions, beam web thickness and opening reinforcement. Based on the results, local web buckling around the opening area plays a significant role on the cyclic behavior of connection and hence any parameter affecting the local web buckling will affect entire connection behavior.

When precast concrete infill panels are connected to steel frames at discrete locations, interaction at the structural interface is neither complete nor absent. The contribution of precast concrete infill panels to the lateral stiffness and strength of steel frames can be significant depending on the quality, quantity and location of the discrete interface connections. This paper presents preliminary experimental and finite element results of an investigation into the composite behaviour of a square steel frame with a precast concrete infill panel subject to lateral loading. The panel is connected at the corners to the ends of the top and bottom beams. The Frame-to-Panel-Connection, FPC4 between steel beam and concrete panel consists of two parts. A T-section with five achor bars welded to the top of the flange is cast in at the panel corner at a forty five degree angle. The triangularly shaped web of the T-section is reinforced against local buckling with a stiffener plate. The second part consists of a triangular gusset plate which is welded to the beam flange. Two bolts acting in shear connect the gusset plate to the web of the T-section. This way the connection can act in tension or compression. Experimental pull-out tests on individual connections allowed their load deflection characteristics to be established. A full scale experiment was performed on a one-storey one-bay 3 by 3 m infilled frame structure which was horizontally loaded at the top. With the characteristics of the frame-to-panel connections obtained from the experiments on individual connections, finite element analyses were performed on the infilled frame structures taking geometric and material non-linear behaviour of the structural components into account. The finite element model yields reasonably accurate results. This allows the model to be used for further parametric studies.
