The main aim of this study was to evaluate the bending and torsional behaviors of representative regular type cap beams in elevated guideway structures. A1/2 scale model copping beam, excluding the column portion, was designed, constructed, and tested. The copping beam was subjected to horizontal monotonic and cyclic loads with a constant vertical load over the loading stage. The damage was very much dominated by torsion. Experiment results showed that the spiral confinement in the beam helped to restrain the opening of torsional cracks in the column zone. Hence, the torsional strength of the cap beam contributesgreatly to the confinement conditions of the column.

Torsional behaviors of beams are investigated for the web reinforcement and the concrete type. Eight beams with self-compacting concrete (SCC) and twelve beams with conventional concrete (CC) were manufactured and tested. All the models manufactured as the $250{\times}300{\times}1500mm$ were tested according to relevant standards. Two concrete types, CC and SCC were designed for 20 and 40 MPa compressive strength. From the point of web reinforcement, the web spacing was chosen as 80 and 100 mm. The rotation angles of the concrete beams subjected to pure torsional moment as well as the cracks occurring in the beams, the ultimate and critical torsional moments were observed. Moreover, the ultimate torsional moments obtained experimentally were compared with the values evaluated theoretically according to some relevant standards and theories. The closest estimations were observed for the skew-bending theory and the Australian Standard.

The present study investigates the lateral torsional buckling behaviour of pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) simply supported channel beams subjected to uniform bending about their major axis. A parametric study by varying the sectional geometry and span of channel beams is carried out by using ABAQUS software. The accuracy of the FE models was ensured by verifying them against the available results provided in the literature. The effect of geometric nonlinearity, geometric imperfections, and the dependency of finite element mesh on the lateral torsional buckling were carefully considered in the FE model. Lateral torsional buckling (LTB) strengths obtained from the numerical study were compared with the theoretical LTB strengths obtained based on the Eurocode 3 approach for steel sections. The comparison between the numerical strengths and the design procedure proposed in the literature based on Eurocode 3 approach revealed disagreements. Therefore, a simplified improved design procedure is proposed for the safe design strength prediction of pultruded GFRP channel beams. The proposed equation has been provided that might aid the structural engineers in economically designing the pultruded GFRP channel beams in the future.

Due to earthquakes, many structures suffered extensive damages that were attributed to the torsional effect caused by mass, stiffness or strength eccentricity. Due to this type of asymmetry torsional moments are generated that are imposed by means of additional shear forces developed at the vertical resisting structural elements of the buildings. Although the torsional effect on the response of reinforced concrete buildings was the subject of extensive research over the last decades, a quantitative index measuring the amplification of the shear forces developed at the vertical resisting elements due to lateral-torsional coupling valid for both elastic and elastoplastic response states is still missing. In this study a reliable index capable of assessing the torsional effect is proposed. The performance of the proposed index is evaluated and its correlation with structural response quantities like displacements, interstorey drift, base torque, shear forces and upper diaphragm's rotation is presented. Torsionally stiff, mass eccentric single-story and multistory structures, subjected to bidirectional excitation, are considered and nonlinear dynamic analyses are performed using natural records selected for three hazard levels. It was found that the proposed index provides reliable prediction of the magnitude of torsional effect for all test examples considered.

Effect of spherodization of cementite on static and dynamic deformation behaviors of SCM415 steels was investigated in this study. Dynamic torsional test was conducted using torsional Kolsky bar with the strain rate of $1.6{\times}10^3/s$. Three type of specimens were used with different spherodization degree of cementite. Dynamic test results were analyzed comparing with static tensile results and microstructural changes. The obtained results are as follows; 1) All the specimens of static and dynamic tests showed a ductile fracture mode of dimple. Specimens of the dynamic test showed adiabatic shear bands on the beneath of fracture surface. 2) In static tensile test, decreased tensile strength and increased uniform and non-uniform elongations appeared as spherodization degree of cementite increased. 3) In dynamic torsional test, decreased shear strength and increased uniform elongation appeared as spherodization degree of cementite increased. 4) Due to the largest uniform elongation, superior cold forgeability at high speed is expected on high spherodization degree of cementite.

수평곡선 구조용 부재는 중력하중 하에서도 휨모멘트와 비틀림 모멘트를 동시에 저항하여야 한다. 이때, 비틀림 모멘트에 의하여 부재 내부의 응력상태는 불균일해지고, 때에 따라 요소의 이른 항복을 야기하여 결과적으로 부재의 극한강도가 저하될 수 있다. 해석에 따르면 곡률 중심각이 45도인 부재는 직선부재에 비해 동일한 조건 하에서 극한 강도가 50% 이상 감소될 수 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 현재까지 곡선 거더의 강도 산정 방안에 관한 연구는 미진한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 휨, 순수비틀림, ? 등의 영향을 독립적으로 고려할 수 있는 구조 모델이 선정되었으며 이에 따라 극한강도에 영향을 미치는 인자가 도출 되었다. 곡선 부재의 거동은 횡-비틀림-수직 거동으로 재정의 되었으며, 휨-비틀림 상호작용 곡선을 이용하여 최종적으로 곡률, 비지지길이, 단면 형상등 거동에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 포함하는 극한강도 산정식을 제안하였다.

본 논문에는 국부좌굴이 발생하는 휨부재의 유한요소해석 및 실험에 근거한 단면의 휨강도에 대하여 기술하였다. 박판으로 구성된 휨부재는 단면조건 및 횡방향 경계조건에 따라서 국부좌굴, 횡-비틀림좌굴 및 두 좌굴의 혼합좌굴이 발생하게 된다. 플랜지나 복부의 폭-두 께비가 큰 경우 횡-비틀림좌굴 발생 이전에 국부좌굴이 발생하며, 국부좌굴은 휨부재의 횡-비틀림좌굴강도에 영향을 미치게 된다. 이런 현상은 박판 형강의 휨강도 산정 시 고려하여야 한다. 다양한 폭-두께비를 갖는 플랜지와 복부판으로 구성된 휨부재의 해석에 국부좌굴 및 횡좌굴 모드의 초기처짐 및 잔류응력을 포함하였다. 해석결과 및 실험에 근거하여 국부좌굴과 횡-비틀림좌굴을 고려하는 설계강도식을 제안하였다. 제안된 직접강도법은 실험에 근거한 강도식과 유효단면 대신 총단면의 단면계수를 사용한다. 제안된 강도식에 의한 휨강도를 AISC, EC3 및 도로교설계기준과 비교하여 보았다. 제안된 직접강도법은 국부좌굴과 횡-비틀림좌굴의 혼합 유무와 상관없이 휨부재의 휨강도를 적절하게 예측할 수 있는 것으로 판단되었다.

Induction hardening increases hardness near the surface where it's most needed, and leaves the surface in compression which improves fatigue life. Although case depth and chemical composition are same, the structure of induction hardened shaft affects the fatigue strength and life because of austenization during hardening. Therefore torsional fatigue tests of specimens from various structures, which are obtained by nomalizing, spheriodized annealing and tempering after quenching, were conducted on induction hardened automotive drive shafts with various case depths and loads applied in order to evalute the relation between structure and fatigue strength.

The effects of mean particle size and uniformity coefficient of dredged soils to the liquefaction resistance strength and dynamic characteristics are experimentally studied in this paper. Representative 4 mean particle sizes and 3 uniformity coefficients were selected and 12 representative particle size distribution curves which have different mean particle sizes and uniformity coefficients, were artificially manufactured using the real dredged river soil. Cyclic triaxial tests and torsional shear tests were carried out to analyze the effect of mean particle size and uniformity coefficient to the liquefaction resistance strength and dynamic characteristics of soils.

본 연구에서는 I-단면 플레이트거더교의 횡비틀림 좌굴강도 평가를 위한 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. 현재 국내 및 AASHTO 설계 기준에서 횡비틀림 좌굴강도는 양단의 변위가 구속된 단일 거더의 좌굴강도 식을 근거로 하고 있다. 그러나, I-단면 강교의 주거더는 한 개 이상으로 구성되고 중간가로보 또는 수직브레이싱으로 서로 연결되므로, 가로보의 휨강성과 주거더의 상호 효과를 고려한 횡좌굴강도의 평가가 필요하다. 또한, 중간가로보가 부착되는 수직보강재의 강성이 복부판의 뒤틀림과 연계하여 횡좌굴강도에 미치는 영향의 평가가 필요하다. 이에, 4-거더교에서 중간가로보 및 수직보강재의 소요 강성을 평가하기 위해 초기처짐 및 잔류응력을 고려한 3차원 쉘요소 모델을 이용하여 재료 및 기하 비선형해석을 수행하고 그 결과를 제시하였다.
