PURPOSES: In Korea, rapid maintenance of distressed concrete pavement is required to prevent traffic jam of the highway. Asphalt concrete overlay has been used as a general maintenance method of construction for aged concrete pavement. AC overlay on existing concrete pavements experience various early distresses such as reflection crack, pothole and rutting, due to different physical characteristics between asphalt overlay and existing concrete pavement. Bonded concrete overlay(BCO) is a good alternative since it has advantages that can reduce various distresses during the service life since overlay material has similar properties with existing concrete pavements. Recently, BCO which uses the ultra rapid harding cement has been applied for maintenance of highway. BCO has advantage of structural performance since it does monolithic behave with existing pavement. Therefore, it is important to have a suitable bond strength criteria for securing performance of BCO. Bond strength criteria should be larger than normal tensile stress and horizontal shear stress occurred by traffic and environmental loading at bond interface. Normal tensile stress and horizontal shear stress need to estimated for the establishment of practical bond strength criteria. METHODS: This study aimed to estimate the bond stresses at the interface of BCO using the three dimensional finite element analysis. RESULTS: As a result of this study, major failure mode and maximum bond stress are evaluated through the analysis of normal tensile stress and horizontal shear stress for various traffic and environmental load conditions. CONCLUSIONS: It was known that normal tensile stresses are dominated by environmental loading, and, horizontal shear stresses are dominated by traffic loading. In addition, bond failure occurred by both of normal tensile stresses and horizontal shear stresses; however, normal tensile stresses are predominated over horizontal shear stresses.

Although several artificial disc designs have been developed for the treatment of discogenic low back pain, biomechanical changes with its implantation were rarely studied. To evaluate the effect of artificial disc implantation on the biomechanics of functional spinal unit, a nonlinear three-dimensional finite element model of L4-L5 was developed with 1-mm CT scan data. Biomechanical analysis was performed for two different types of artificial disc having constrained and unconstrained instant center of rotation(ICR), ProDisc and SB Charite III model. The implanted model predictions were compared with that of intact model. Angular motion of vertebral body, forces on the spinal ligaments and facet joint, and stress distribution of vertebral endplate for flexion-extension, lateral bending, and axial rotation with a compressive preload of 400N were compared. The implanted model showed increased flexion-extension range of motion compared to that of intact model. Under 6Nm moment, the range of motion were 140%, 170% and 200% of intact in SB Charite III model and 133%, 137%, and 138% in ProDisc model. The increased stress distribution on vertebral endplate for implanted cases could be able to explain the heterotopic ossification around vertebral body in clinical observation. As a result of this study, it is obvious that implanted segment with artificial disc suffers from increased motion and stress that can result in accelerated degenerated change of surrounding structure. Unconstrained ICR model showed increased in motion but less stress in the implanted segment than constrained model.

본 논문은 3 차원 유한요소해석 기법을 이용하여 토오크 시험을 위한 표준시험시편의 각도 및 동심 오열이 시편의 응력과 변형률 변화에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 해석 결과의 정량적 비교를 위해 각, 동심 및 복합 축 오열에 대한 평균 굽힘 변형률을 적용하였으며, 시편 형상에 따른 축 오열 영향을 확인하기 위해 환봉형 시편과 튜브형 시편에 대해 각각 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 해석결과로부터 얻어진 변형률과 응력의 변화로 축 오열의 종류와 방향을 예측하는 일반적인 기준을 제시하였으며, 초기 항복조건을 적용하여 축 오열이 토오크 시편의 초기 항복 모멘트에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

In order to predict a remaining life of a plant, it is necessary to select the components that are critical to the plant life. The remaining life of those components shall be evaluated by considering the aging effect of materials used as well as numerous factors. However, when evaluating reliability of nuclear structural components, some problems are quite formidable because of lack of information such as operating history, material property change and uncertainty in damage models. Accordingly, if structural integrity and safety are evaluated by the deterministic fracture mechanics approach, it is expected that the results obtained are too conservative to perform a rational evaluation of plant life. The probabilistic fracture mechanics approaches are regarded as appropriate methods to rationally evaluate the plant life since they can consider various uncertainties such as sizes and shapes of cracks and degradation of material strength due to the aging effects. The objective of this study is to evaluate the structural integrity for a reactor pressure vessel under the small break loss of coolant accident by applying the deterministic and probabilistic fracture mechanics. The deterministic fracture mechanics analysis was performed using the three dimensional finite element model. The probabilistic integrity analysis was based on the Monte Carlo simulation. The selected random variables are the neutron fluence on the vessel inside surface, the content of copper, nickel, and phosphorus in the reactor pressure vessel material, and initial RTNDT.

터널 굴진면에서 측정된 수평 변위를 이용하여 터널 굴진면 전방에서의 단층대 예측을 검토하기 위하여 총 28개 단층모델을 대상으로 3차원 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 그리고 터널 굴착에 의해 발생하는 수평변위를 x-MR (moving range) 관리도 기법을 이용하여 정량적으로 분석하여 굴진면 전방에 분포하는 단층의 존재를 예측하였다. 단층대는 단층점토 및 단층각력, 단층 손상대로 구분하여 모델링하였으며, 단층핵의 폭은 1 m (단층점토 0.5 m, 단층각력 0.5 m), 단층 손상대의 폭은 2 m로 설정하였다. 분석 결과, 굴진면으로부터 약 2~26 m 전방에서 단층의 예측이 가능하였고, 5개의 측정지점에서 대부분 경사 45°인 경우 예측이 가장 빠른 것으로 나타났다. 또한 굴진방향과 단층면 사이의 각도가 작을수록 예측 가능시점이 빠른 것으로 분석되었다.

Cast duplex stainless steels are susceptible to thermal aging during long-term service at temperatures ranging from $280^{\circ}C$ to $450^{\circ}C$. To analyze the effect of thermal aging on leak-before-break (LBB) behavior, three-dimensional finite element analysis models were built for circumferentially cracked pipes. Based on the elasticeplastic fracture mechanics theory, the detectable leakage crack length calculation and J-integral stability assessment diagram approach were carried out under different bending moments. The LBB curves and LBB assessment diagrams for unaged and thermally aged pipes were constructed. The results show that the detectable leakage crack length for thermally aged pipes increases with increasing bending moments, whereas the critical crack length decreases. The ligament instability line and critical crack length line for thermally aged pipes move downward and to the left, respectively, and unsafe LBB assessment results will be produced if thermal aging is not considered. If the applied bending moment is increased, the degree of safety decreases in the LBB assessment.

Deck plates and hatch coming of large container carrier and offshore structures are joined by ultra-thick plates whose thickness is more than 60mm. Traditionally FCAW has been used to join the thick plates in butt joint. However, FCAW has been replaced with EGW since the welding efficiency of EGW is higher than that of FCAW. Tandem EGW using two electrodes has been applied to vertical position welding by several shipyards. EGW requires one or two layers of bead whereas FCAW requires more than 20 layers of weld bead in thick welding. However, high welding residual stresses are generated by EGW since it uses higher heat input than FCAW. In the present study, a finite element model is suggested to predict the residual stresses induced by the tandem EGW. Butt specimen of EH40 TMCP shipbuilding steel plates vertical welding was modeled by a three-dimensional model. Residual stresses were measured by X-ray diffraction method and to verify the numerical result. The results show a good agreement with experimental result.

기존의 LB-DECK는 레티스바와 현장에서 배근되는 철근과의 간섭이 시공성 등을 저하시키는 문제점이 지적되고 있었다. HB-DECK는 레티스바의 형태를 단순화하고, 방향을 주철근 방향에서 배력근 방향으로 전환하였으며 강성을 증가시키기 위해 하면에 리브를 설치하였다. 본 연구에서는 HB-DECK가 프리캐스트 콘크리트 슬래브로써 성능을 발휘할 수 있는지를 검증하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 도로교설계기준(2015)에 의한 구조검증과 HB-DECK와 현장타설 콘크리트와의 합성거동 분석을 위해 정적재하시험을 수행하였다. 범용구조해석 프로그램인 MIDAS FEA를 이용하여 3차원 유한요소해석을 수행하였으며, 해석결과와 실험결과를 비교분석하였다. 그 결과, HB-DECK는 현장타설 콘크리트와 완전한 합성거동을 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 도로교설계기준(2015)에서 요구하는 구조성능을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다.
