An efficient optimum design process has been developed and applied to systematically design a lock-up clutch system for a torque converter used in an automatic transmission. A simulated annealing algorithm was applied to determine the parameters of the compressive helical damper springs in the clutch. The determination of the number, location, a number of turns, and deflection of damper springs plays an important role in reducing vibration and noise in the lock-up system. Next, FE-based shape optimization was coded to find the shape of the clutch disk that would satisfy the strength, noise and vibration requirements. Using the optimum code, parametric studies were performed to see how spring diameters and frequencies of clutch systems changed as the damper spring traveling angles and the torques were varied. Based on the optimum results, five different designs for clutches with different springs were fabricated and vibration analyses and tests were conducted to validate the accuracy of the proposed method. Results from the two methods show a good correlation.

The construction of segmental precast concrete bridge is an increase due to its superior performance and economic advantages. This type of bridge is appropriate for spans within 30 to 150 m (100 to 500 ft), known as mega-projects and the design optimization would lead to considerable economic benefits. A box-girder cross section superstructure of balanced cantilever construction method is assessed here. The depth of cross section, (variable along the span linearly), bottom flange thickness, and the count of strands are considered as design variables. The optimum design is characterized by geometry, serviceability, ductility, and ultimate limit states specified by AASHTO. Genetic algorithm (GA) is applied in two fronts: as to the saving in construction cost 8% and as to concrete volume 6%. The sensitivity analysis is run by considering different parameters like span/depth ratio, relation between superstructure cost, span length and concrete compressive strength.

In this paper, the flexural capacity equation of FRP-bar reinforced concrete beams was verified by comparing the experimental results and flexural capacity obtained according to the ACI procedure. And, also the economic feasibility of FRP-bar reinforced concrete beams was analyzed by comparing nominal moment capacity of beams. The results of analysis were as follows, 1) GFRP concrete beams have lower flexural performance than reinforced concrete beams, whereas CFRP concrete beams have similar flexural performance to reinforced concrete beams under the same reinforcement ratio 2) Although the design moment increased as the compressive strength of concrete increased, the flexural performance of GFRP reinforced concrete beams was found to be lower than the reinforced concrete beams for all reinforcement ratios.

Since concrete is contaminated or radioactive during operation of nuclear power plants, it is the most important radioactive waste generated during the dismantling of a nuclear power plant. The amount of waste is different depending on the pollution state of each facility and the applied technology is different, so there is a big difference. We aim to reduce the amount of waste and increase the value of recyclability through technology to remove radionuclides attached to the surface. For this purpose, laser scabbling, which exfoliates the surface of concrete by irradiating a laser, and a facility system for controlling dust and dust are used in parallel. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of laser scabbling by manufacturing simulated concrete for nuclear facilities, and to review the optimal mixing design conditions for nuclear facility structures.

In the years, the concern about high-strength concrete which is new material has been heightened as a result of active research and development. Recently, as the building structure has been being bigger, higher, longer and more specialized, the demand of material with high-strength concrete for building has been increasing. The demand of high -strength concrete is expected to increase with expansion of usage about the complex concrete structures such as bridge structure as well as nuclear plants, underground structures, hydraulic structures and arctic area sturctures. In this research, silica-fume was used as an admixture in order to get a high-strength concrete. Water/binder ration was limited no more than 18 percent and the amount of unit cement was increased. In this study, a number of trial in concrete mix was carried out to get optimal mix design, and the target slump with $10{\pm}2cm$ was set for in-situ construction. High-strength concrete with cylinder strength of 1,200kgf/$cm^2$ in the 28-days was produced and tested. The static test was carried out to measure the ultimate load, the initial load of flexural and diagonal cracking, crack patterns, fracture modes. The load versus strain and load versus deflection relations were obtained form the static test. The test results were compared with the shear strengths predicted by the equations of ACI code 318-89 and orther researchers. Based on the test results, shear strength equation of reinforced concrete beam using high strength concrete was proposed. Form an evaluation of the results of this experimental investigation, it was concluded that shear strength after diagonal tention cracking diminished with the increase in compressive strength for beams.

강섬유로 보강되어 SF-RPC (Steel-Fiber reinforced Reactive Powder Concrete)로 불리는 초고성능 콘크리트의 설계는 이에 대한 연구결과를 기반으로 한 가이드라인을 통해 수행되고 있으나, 명확한 설계기준은 확립되지 않은 상태이다. 특히 SF-RPC 일반적으로 고온($90^{\circ}C$)의 증기양생을 필요로 하므로 프리캐스트 부재 형태로 사용되고 있어 부재간 접합 방법이 중요한 설계 요소로 간주됨에도 불구하고 명확한 설계기준이 존재하지 않음에 따라 현재 안전성 및 경제성 측면에서 많은 의문이 있는 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 SF-RPC의 명확한 정착 설계를 위한 기반으로 SF-RPC와 철근 사이의 부착강도를 실험적으로 파악하고, 기존에 사용하였던 평가 방법의 적용성을 검토하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 콘크리트의 압축강도, 피복두께, 섬유의 혼입량을 변수로 가진 직접 뽑힘 실험을 계획 및 수행하였다. 실험 결과 SF-RPC의 부착강도는 압축강도의 증가량에 따라 증가하고 있으나 그 증가율은 크게 나타나지 않음을 확인할 수 있으며, 피복두께의 증가에 따라 부착강도가 증가하며 $5.2d_b$ 이상의 피복을 가질 경우 매우 짧은 매입깊이인 $3d_b$의 매입깊이에서도 철근을 항복시킬 수 있는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 섬유의 보강에 의해 부착강도가 두배 이상 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 안전하고 경제적인 설계를 위해서는 SF-RPC의 부착강도를 추정할 수 있어야 하나, 현재까지는 이에 대한 추정식이 제시되고 있지 않으며, SF-RPC의 거동이 압축응력하에서는 큰 탄성 거동을 하며, 인장응력하에서는 소성거동을 함에 기인하여 Tepfers의 응력 해석 방법을 적용한 결과 실험 결과와 유사한 추정치를 기대할 수 있는 것을 확인하였다.

All-ceramic restorations have had a more limited life expectancy than metal ceramic restorations because of their low strength. Their relatively lower strength and resistance to fracture have restricted the use of all-ceramic crowns to anterior applications where occlusal loads are lower. But there has been increasing interest in all-ceramic restorations because patients are primarily concerned with improved esthetics. Many efforts have been made to in prove the mechanical properties of dental ceramics. This study was designed to elucidate the influence of the luting agent on the strength of the Empress 2 crown (staining technique) cemented on human teeth. Seventy extracted human permanent molar teeth were chosen. Teeth were prepared for Empress 2 crowns with milling machine on a surveyor. A dental bur was placed in the mandrel that was positioned so that the long axis of the bur was perpendicular to the surveyor base. Dimensions of the Empress 2 crown preparation were $6^{\circ}$ taper on each side, $1.5{\pm}0.1mm$ shoulder margin, and 4mm crown height. The luting cements used in this study were as follow: 1. Uncemented 2. Zinc phosphate cements (Confi-Dental) 3. Conventional glass ionomer cement : Fuji 1 (GC) 4. Resin-modified glass ionomer cements : Fuji plus (GC) 5. Adhesive cements : Panavia F (Kuralay), Variolink II (Vivadent), Choice (Bisco). Fracture test using Instron. The crowns were loaded in compressive force to evaluate the effect of these cements on the breaking strength of these all-ceramic crowns. A steel ball with a diameter of 4mm was placed on the occlusal surface and load was applied to the steel ball by a cylindrical bolt with a crosshead speed of 0.5mm per minute until fracture occurred. The fractured surface was examined using Scanning Electron Microscopic Image (SEM) to discover the correlation between fracture strength and bonding capacity. Within the limitation of this in vitro study design, the results were as follows : 1. fomentations significantly increased the fracture resistance of Empress ceramic crowns compared to control. Uncemented (206.9 N): ZPC (812.9 N): Fuji 1 (879.5 N): Fuji Plus (937.7 N): Choice (1105.4 N): Variolink II (1221.1 N): Panavia F (1445.2 N). 2. Resin luting agent, treated by a silane bond enhancing agents, yielded a significant increase in fracture resistance. In some of the Panavia F group, a fracture extended into dentin. 3. According to SEM images of fractured Empress crowns, the stronger the bond at both interfaces(crown and die), the more fracture strength was acquired.

최근 폐기물 재활용에 대한 관심이 지대해 지기 시작하면서 많은 연구가 진행 중에 있다. 그 중 석탄회의 재활용 연구로는 시멘트 대체제로 및 고온소성법을 이용한 인공골재 개발등의 연구가 진행되었으나, 경제성에 있어서 부적합하였다. 본 연구에서는 비소성 고형화 기술을 사용하여 석탄회를 재활용한 건설재료의 토목, 건축 구조분야에 실용화하기 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 한다. 재령에 따른 압축강도의 회귀분석을 하였고, 압축강도와 할선탄성계수를 구하였다. 그리고 Lineweaver와 Burk 방법을 적용하여 건조수축의 회귀분석을 실시하여 제안식을 도출하였다. 연구결과, 석탄회 경화체의 압축강도는 구조용 부재로 사용가능 한 수준이었으며 건조수축은 중용열 시멘트 모르터와 유사하였다. 또한, Bottom ash의 첨가가 석탄회 경화체 내부에서 골재의 역할을 수행하는 것으로 나타났다. 건조수축 양상을 중량감소율 측정결과와 종합하면 Bottom ash 치환율과 공시체 내부의 수분감소가 건조수축의 지배적인 요인임을 파악할 수 있었다. 또한 압축강도로부터 탄성계수를 추정하는 제안식은 본 연구에서의 압축강도 범위에서는 매우 높은 신뢰도를 보였다. 또한 Lineweaver와 Burk 방법으로 도출한 건조수축 추정 제안식도 매우 높은 신뢰도를 보였다.
