본 논문은 다수의 볼과 접촉하는 두개의 실린더 사이에서 발생하는 접촉응력과 마찰력을 유한요소법으로 해석하였다. LPG 충전기는 구름마찰 운동을 위해 다수의 볼이 평행한 두개의 실린더와 경사진 두개의 실린더 레이스에서 구름마찰 운동을 한다. FEM 해석결과에 의하면, SiC 볼과 SUS 304 볼은 주어진 수직하중, 즉 압축력에 대하여 높은 접촉응력과 마찰력 손실을 보여주고 있다. 반면에 PEEK 볼을 두개의 실린더에 대하여 구름마찰 운동을 유지하면, 대단히 낮은 접촉응력과 마찰력 손실을 나타내는 것으로 보아 폴리머 소재의 사용은 저마찰 접촉특성을 잘 구현하고 있다할 수 있다. 여기에 두개의 실린더가 평행하게 구름마찰 접촉운동을 하느냐, 또는 경사진 상태에서 구름마찰 운동을 하느냐에 따라 접촉거동 특성이 크게 달라지므로 특히 두개 실린더 사이의 상대적 경사도는 극도로 억제되어야 우수한 설계가 된다.

Nondestructive testing methods are required to assess the condition of civil structures and formulate their maintenance programs. Axial force identification is required for several structural members of truss bridges, pipe racks, and space roof trusses. An accurate evaluation of in situ axial forces supports the safety assessment of the entire truss. A considerable redistribution of internal forces may indicate structural damage. In this paper, a novel compressive force identification method for prismatic members implemented using static deflections is applied to steel beams. The procedure uses the Euler-Bernoulli beam model and estimates the compressive load by using the measured displacement along the beam's length. Knowledge of flexural rigidity of the member under investigation is required. In this study, the deflected shape of a compressed steel beam is subjected to an additional vertical load that was short-term measured in several laboratory tests by using fiber Bragg grating-differential settlement measurement (FBG-DSM) sensors at specific cross sections along the beam's length. The accuracy of midspan deflections offered by the FBG-DSM sensors provided excellent force estimations. Compressive load detection accuracy can be improved if substantial second-order effects are induced in the tests. In conclusion, the proposed method can be successfully applied to steel beams with low slenderness under real conditions.

축하중을 받는 철근콘크리트 부재의 전단강도를 예측하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 전단력과 축하중 및 휨모멘트를 받는 철근 콘크리트 부재의 전단거동을 예측할 수 있는 변환각 트러스 모델(TATM)을 제안하였다. TATM에서, 축력의 영향을 고려하기 위하여 축압축력이 증가할수록 고정각은 감소하며 균열 방향의 콘크리트 전단저항은 증가한다. TATM의 예측결과가 축력을 받는 철근콘크리트 부재에 대하여 정확성과 신뢰성을 가지는지 검증하기 위하여, 축력을 받는 총 67개의 전단실험 결과를 수집하였으며, TATM 및 기존의 트러스 모델(MCFT, RA-STM FA-STM)과 비교하였다. 수집한 실험결과와 해석결과를 비교한 결과, TATM에 의한 해석결과는 실험결과를 평균 0.95, 변동계수 $12.0\%$로 기존의 트러스 모델보다 더 정확히 예측하였으며, 철근능력비, 축력, 전단경간비 및 압축철근비의 영향을 받지 않았다.

Recently the steel parts used for automiles and trains are required to be used under higher stress than ever before in need of the weight down. However, threr are a lot of problems with developing such of fatigue strength and fatigue life are mainly focused on by adopting residual stress. And got the following characteristics from crack growth test carried out stress ratio. Fatigue life shows more improvement in the Un-peening material. And Compressive residual stress of surface on the Shot-peening processed operate resistance force of fatigue. So we cam obtain fallowings. (1) The fatigue crack growth rate on stage II is conspicuous with the size of compressive residual stress and is dependent of Paris equation. (2) Although the maximum compressive residual stress is deeply and widely formed from surface, fatigue life does not improve than when maximum compressive residual stress is formed in surface. (3) The threshold stress intensity factor range is increased with increasing compressive residual stress.

Tubular joints have been widely used in offshore platforms and space structures due to their merits such as easy fabrication, aesthetic appearance and better static strength. For existing tubular joints, a grouted sleeve reinforced method was proposed in this paper. Experimental tests on five tubular T-joints reinforced with the grouted sleeve and two conventional tubular T-joints were conducted to investigate their mechanical behaviour. A constant axial compressive force was applied to the chord end to simulate the compressive state of the chord member during the tests. Then an axial compressive force was applied to the top end of the brace member until the collapse of the joint specimens occurred. The parameters investigated herein were the grout thickness, the sleeve length coefficient and the sleeve construction method. The failure mode, ultimate load, initial stiffness and deformability of these joint specimens were discussed. It was found that: (1) The grouted sleeve could change the failure mode of tubular T-joints. (2) The grouted sleeve was observed to provide strength enhancement up to 154.3%~172.7% for the corresponding un-reinforced joint. (3) The initial stiffness and deformability were also greatly improved by the grouted sleeve. (4) The sleeve length coefficient was a key parameter for the improved effect of the grouted sleeve reinforced method.

In the case of the railway bridges, uplift forces were occurred at the edge of the segments when vehicular loads were applied. These forces made the compressive and tensile forces occur in the fastening system. Therefore, the structural analysis was performed to investigate the safety of fastening system which was modeled as one directional spring element. In this case, the stiffness of the spring element was obtained from experimental study which was conducted by compressive load. For that reason, to perform rational and exact structural analysis, the translational stiffness of the fastening system obtained from the experimental study applied the tensile load and the rotational stiffness should be considered because it was occurred the tensile force as well as the compressive force in fastening system. In this study, an elastic and inelastic experimental study was performed for six specimens. The translational stiffness along the vertical axis of rail and the rotational stiffness along the strong axis of rail were investigated. Also structural behavior of the fastening system was analyzed.

This study is to use results of the experiment on the influence to the strength by mixing powders of wasted tires into regular remicon within a range of little effectiveness in durability, applicability, economic aspect, and workability, to put it to practical use and to apply as basic data from a view of recycling wasted tires as construction materials. And the concrete, which was mixed with 10mm particles with ratio of $0.5\%\;and\;1.0\%$ respectively at 270 of mixing strength, was reduced by $27\%$ in compressive strength compared to normal concrete, whereas concrete mixed with other than 10mm particles showed lower decrease ratio compared to the former by reducing only $1.0\%\~1.5\%$. it is found that as strength increases, the less in quantity of aggregate and the more increase in quantity of cement. When considered to the above result, it is estimated that concrete mixed with wasted tire particles could be better used in conditions of compressive force rather than tensile force, and could also be used for structures with flexural strengths as well. In conclusion, higher strengths could be made using waste tire mix.

An experimental investigation is carried out on the failure mechanism of foam concrete with cold formed steel double C-Channels embedment. The foam concrete is made of cement and fly ash with a compressive strength between 9 and 24 MPa with different densities. Forty-eight tests have been carried out in four groups of specimens with various embedment depths of the steel in the concrete. Four modes of failure are observed, which include the independent failure of the C-Channels with and without a concrete block inside the channel as well as the combined failure of the two channels, and the failure of the extrusion block. A theoretical model has been developed to understand the failure process. The peak compressive force applied onto the C-Channels that causes failure is calculated. It is concluded that the failure involves independent slippage between two C-Channels, and the steel and the foam concrete blocks inside the C-Channels. A method to calculate the peak force is also developed based on the test results. The calculations also show that the shear strength of the foam concrete is about 8% of the compressive strength with ${\alpha}$ coefficient of 0.4 between the steel and concrete.

Brittle fracture of structures excited by earthquakes can be prevented by adding a tuned mass damper (TMD). This TMD must be optimum and suitable to the physical conditions of the structure. Compressive strength of concrete is an important factor for brittle fracture. The application of a TMD to structures with low compressive strength of concrete may not be possible if the weight of the TMD is too much. A heavy TMD is dangerous for these structures because of insufficient axial force capacity of structure. For the preventing brittle fracture, the damping ratio of the TMD must be sufficient to reduce maximum shear forces below the values proposed in design regulations. Using the formulas for frequency and damping ratio related to a preselected mass, this objective can be only achieved by increasing the mass of the TMD. By using a metaheuristic method, the optimum parameters can be searched in a specific limit. In this study, Harmony Search (HS) is employed to find optimum TMD parameters for preventing brittle fracture by reducing shear force in additional to other time and frequency responses. The proposed method is feasible for the retrofit of weak structures with insufficient compressive strength of concrete.

The main goal of this study is to investigate the hysteretic behavior of polyurethane rubber springs in compression with and without precompression. The precompression is introduced to provide rigid force in the behavior, and thereby a precompressed rubber spring can be used for a restoring element. For the goal, this study prepares nine rubber springs for three suites which are all cylindrical in shape with a hole at the center. The rubber springs in each suite have different dimensions of diameter and length but have similar shape factors; thus, they are designed to have a similar compressive stiffness. Three rubber springs from the nine are tested with increasing compressive strain up to 30% strain to investigate the behavior of the rubber springs without precompression as well as the effect of the loading strain. The nine springs are compressed up to 30% strain with increasing precompressive strain from 0 to 20% at increments of 5%. The study analyzes the effective stiffness and damping ratio of the rubber springs with and without precompression, and the rigid force of the precompressed rubber springs is discussed. Finally, this study suggests a regression method to determine the minimum required precompression to eliminate residual strain after unloading.
