Mechanical anchorage devices are generally tested in the laboratory and may be analyzed using the finite element method. These devices are composed of many components interacting through diverse contact interfaces. Generally, a Coulomb friction law is sufficient to take into account friction between smooth surfaces. However, in the case of mechanical anchorages, a gripping system, named herein the wedge-tendon system, is used to anchor the prestressing tendon. The wedge inner surface is made of a series of triangular notches designed to grip the tendon. In this particular case, the Coulomb law is not adapted to simulate the contact interface. The present paper deals with a new constitutive contact/gripping law to simulate the gripping effect. A parameter identification procedure, based on experimental results as well as on a finite element/neural network approach, is presented. It is demonstrated that all parameters have been selected in a satisfactory way and that the proposed constitutive law is well adapted to simulate the wedge gripping effect taking place in a mechanical anchorage device.

In this paper, the electrical characteristics of the non-contact transformer is presented using conventional coupled inductor theory. In high power applications, the non-contact transformer is so bulky and heavy that it poses some maintenance problems. Therefore it should be divided into some light transformer modules. This paper shows the analytic method of how to measure the parameters of the multiple connected non-contact transformer The analytical results are verified through measurement.

Because of high torque and easiness of speed control, Direct Current(DC) motors have been used for a long time. But, its applications are limited in circumstance and performance, since they contained brush and commutator. The commutation characteristic gives effect to life and performance of the DC motor. Naturally, the commutation characteristic analysis is strongly required. In this paper, With the result of finite element analysis, The inductance is calculated each rotor position and applied to the voltage equations coupled with commutation equation. Also, contact resistances of brush/commutator assembly are considered using contact area and brush width converted with commutator segments. The time derivative term in the differential equation is solved in time difference method. This algorithm was applied to 2-pole shunt DC motor. We considered commutation characteristic by changing contact resistance between brush and commutator segment.

일반적으로 저압 회로 보호용 장치로는 ICCB(Insulated case circuit breakers), PCB(Power circuit breakers) 그리고 MCCB(Molded case circuit breakers)를 들 수 있다. 이들 중 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 배선용 차단기(MCCB)는 휴즈 또는 개폐기의 단점인 안전성, 제어성, 협조성 등을 보완한 것이다. 차단기의 성능은 사고전류 발생 시 트립 동작이 순간적이고, 절연능력이 뛰어나야 하므로 매우 중요하다. 따라서 차단기의 개폐 성능은 매우 중요하므로 개폐 기구부의 접촉자 구조 및 접점 그리고 링크구조 등에 대한 기구학적 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 저압차단기의 기구적 동역학 모델링과 해석을 수행하여 가동자의 개리속도가 빠를수록 차단특성에 유리하다는 결론을 얻었으며, 실제 실험을 통하여 이를 검증하였다.

This study modeled the compressive strength and elastic modulus of hardened cement that had been treated with an expansive additive to reduce shrinkage, in order to determine the mechanical properties of the material. In hardened cement paste with an expansive additive, hydrates are generated as a result of the hydration between the cement and expansive additive. These hydrates then fill up the pores in the hardened cement. Consequently, a dense, compact structure is formed through the contact between the particles of the expansive additive and the cement, which leads to the manifestation of the strength and elastic modulus. Hence, in this study, the compressive strength and elastic modulus were modeled based on the concept of the mutual contact area of the particles, taking into consideration the extent of the cohesion between particles and the structure formation by the particles. The compressive strength of the material was modeled by considering the relationship between the porosity and the distributional probability of the weakest points, i.e., points that could lead to fracture, in the continuum. The approach used for modeling the elastic modulus considered the pore structure between the particles, which are responsible for transmitting the tensile force, along with the state of compaction of the hydration products, as described by the coefficient of the effective radius. The results of an experimental verification of the model showed that the values predicted by the model correlated closely with the experimental values.

Fertilizer impaction mechanism was simulated using a commercial program RecurDyn$^{(R)}$ a dynamic program that could handle contact problems. Even if there had been numerous papers on modeling of fertilizer applicator, the performance predictions were not satisfactory due to simplification in modeling. The most significant simplification was assumption of fertilizer particles as a solid particle. The assumption would eliminate rotation of fertilizer particles during the impaction mechanism. However, impaction of rotating body would be different from that of a solid particle. This paper introduced how the impaction was modeled using RecurDyn$^{(R)}$. In order to simulate, restitution coefficient and contact time was measured. A stiffness coefficient and a damping coefficient of a fertilizer was theoretically estimated using the measured data. Validity of the simulation result was not proved yet, but judged to be promising.ged to be promising.ing.

Ratcheting is a cyclic accumulation of strain under a cyclic loading. It is a kind of mechanisms which generate cracks in rail steels. Though some experimental and numerical study has been performed, modeling of ratcheting is still a challenging problem. In this study, an elastic-plastic constitutive equation considering non-linear kinematic hardening and isotropic hardening was applied. Under the tangential stress of the contact stresses, a cyclic stress-strain relation was obtained by using the model. Strain under repeated cycles was accumulated.

In this study, a modeling process of a 3-axis planar alignment stage is suggested. Vibration tests using a laser vibro-meter is performed to find the modeling parameters of the stage. By analyzing the result of the test, the stiffness of prismatic joints and revolute joints, as well as the contact conditions of the thrust bearings, can be calculated. The modeling of the stage was validated by comparing six normal mode shapes, which are acquired from experiments and simulations.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating effects of parental neglect on the relationship between family environment, such as economic status and harmony of family and contact with harmful environments. The data came from the 2009 Korean Survey on the Rights of Youth (N = 6,601). The data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling by means of SPSS 17.0 and AMOS 7.0. Bootstrap method used to test significant mediating effects. We found that family environment influences an adolescent's contact with harmful environments through parental neglect, showing that family environment has both indirect and direct effects. The results suggested that a family with low socio-economic status and more stress than harmony engenders a negative effect on the behavior of parents providing care and affection. This neglect influences the adolescent's contact with harmful environments such as harmful media and facilities. It must be acknowledged that parental care and suitable affection play a minimal role in adolescent's contact with harmful environments.
