시멘트계 기질을 사용하는 복합재료는 재료 양생 과정에서 발생하는 건조수축 균열에 취약하다. 본 연구에서는 파이버 보강 콘크리트의 건조수축에 의한 파괴 거동을 시뮬레이션 하고, 파이버의 조건이 균열 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석한다. 수치 해석 모델은 무작위 격자 형태의 기하학적 구조를 공유하는 관로 요소와 rigid-body-spring 요소로 구성되는데, 각 요소가 담당하는 비역학적-역학적 거동의 커플링에 의해 건조수축이 표현된다. 파이버 보강을 모델링하기 위해 rigid-bodyspring network 내부의 semi-discrete 파이버 요소를 적용하였다. KS F 2424 자유 건조수축 실험을 해석하고 시간에 따른 건조수축 변형률 변화를 비교함으로써 재료의 건조수축 관련 계수들을 산정한다. 다음으로 여러 파이버 혼입률에 대해 KS F 2595 구속 건조수축 실험을 시뮬레이션 하고 균열 발생 일자를 선행 실험 결과와 비교하여 해석 모델의 타당성을 검증한다. 또한, 파이버의 길이와 표면 형태를 변화시켜 건조수축 균열 해석을 수행하고 최대 균열 폭을 측정하여 시뮬레이션에서 나타나는 균열 제어 효과를 판단한다.

암반은 서로 다른 입자 및 미소크랙과 같은 미소구조의 개별요소로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 미소구조에 대한 연구는 대심도 지하공간개발과 관련된 지질공학 및 토목공학분야등에 있어서의 관심이 증대되고 있다. 따라서, 단순한 연속체역학에 의한 접근보다는 구성입자들에 대한 역학적성질 및 개별구조요소등이 고려되어야 할 것이다. 그러나, 단순한 유크리드 공간에서 아들 구조를 표현하기는 매우 어렵다. 그래서 Mandelbrot에 의해 자연에 있어서 규칙성이 거의 없는 물체를 정량적으로 표현하기위한 Fractal이론이 개발되었다. 본 연구에는, 크랙의 진전과 응력의 관계를 평가하기위해 미소구조의 기하학적 성질이 Fractal차원에 의해 계산되었다. 암반의 역학적 성질을 평가함에 있어 그 구조의 복잡성을 Fractal이론에 의해 단순화 및 수치화시켜 균질화이론에 적용시키므로서 그 평가를 보다 용이하고 효과적으로 할 수 있다.

Composite nature of the masonry structures in general causes complex and non-linear behaviour, especially in intense vibration conditions. The presence of different types and forms of structural elements and different materials is a major problem for the analysis of these type of structures. For this reason, the analysis of the behaviour of masonry structures requires a combination of experimental tests and non-linear mathematical modelling. The famous UNESCO Heritage Old Bridge in Mostar was selected as an example for the analysis of the global behaviour of reinforced stone arch masonry bridges. As part of the experimental research, a model of the Old Bridge was constructed in a scale of 1:9 and tested on a shaking table platform for different levels of seismic excitation. Non-linear mathematical modelling was performed using a combined finite-discrete element method (FDEM), including the effect of connection elements. The paper presents the horizontal displacement of the top of the arch and the failure mechanism of the Old Bridge model for the experimental and the numerical phase, as well as the comparison of the results. This research provided a clearer insight into the global behaviour of stone arch masonry structures reinforced with steel clamps and steel dowels, which is significant for the structures classified as world cultural heritage.

This study presents a new computational model to analyze the grain deformation in a polycrystalline aggregate in a discrete manner and based directly in the underlying physical micro-mechanisms. As a result, specific characteristics have to be considered for the numerical analysis. The grains and grain boundary elements are introduced to model individual grains and grain boundary facets, respectively, to consider the size effects in the micro forming. The constitutive description of the grain elements accounts for the rigid-plastic and the grain boundary elements for elastic relationships. The capability of the proposed approach is demonstrated through application of grain element and grain boundary element in the micro forming.

A simple technique to decouple the modal equations of motion of a linear nonclassically damped system is to neglect the off-diagonal elements of the modal damping matrix. This is called the decoupling approximation. It has generally been conceived that smallness of off-diagonal elements relative to the diagonal ones would validate its use. In this study, the relationship between elements of the modal damping matrix and the error arising from the decoupling approximation is explored. It is shown that the enhanced diagonal dominance of the modal damping matrix need not diminish the error. In fact, the error may even increase. Moreover, the error is found to be strongly dependent on the exitation. Therefore, within the practical range of engineering applications, diagonal dominance of the modal damping matrix would not be sufficient to supress the effect of modal coupling.

The purpose of this paper is to find expressions of the Fricke spaces of some basic surfaces which are a three-holed sphere ${\sum}$(0, 3), a one-holed torus ${\sum}$(1, 1), and a four-holed sphere ${\sum}$(0, 4). For this goal, we define the involutions corresponding to oriented axes of loxodromic elements and an inner product <,> which gives the information about locations of axes of loxodromic elements. The signs of traces of holonomy elements, which are calculated by lifting a representation from PSL(2, $\mathbb{C}$) to SL(2, $\mathbb{C}$), play a very important role in determining the discreteness of holonomy groups.

This study presents a new computational model to analyze the grain deformation in a polycrystalline aggregate in a discrete manner and based directly in the underlying physical micro-mechanisms. When scaling down a metal forming process, the dimensions of the workpiece decrease but the microstructure of the workpiece remains the similar. Since the dimensions of the workpiece are very small, the microstructure especially the grain size will play an important role in micro forming, which is called size effects. As a result, specific characteristics have to be considered for the numerical analysis. The grains and grain boundary elements are introduced to model individual grains and grain boundary facets, respectively, to consider the size effects in the micro forming. The constitutive description of the grain elements accounts for the rigid-plastic and the grain boundary elements for visco-elastic relationships. The capability of the proposed approach is demonstrated through application of grain element and grain boundary element in the micro forming.

The decomposition of a structuring element for a morphological operation reduces the amount of the computation required for executing the operation. In this paper, we present a new technique for the decomposition of convex structuring elements for morphological operations. We formulated the linear constraints for the decomposition of a convex polygon in discrete space, then the constraints are applied to the decomposition of a convex structuring element. Also, a cost function is introduced to represent the optimal criteria for decomposition. We use linear integer programming technique to find the combination of basis structuring elements which minimizes the amount of the computation required for executing the morphological operation. Formulating different cost functions for different implementation methods and computer architectures, we can determine the optimal decompositions which guarantee the minimal amounts of computation on different computing environment.

Piezoelectric composite laminates are a powerful material system that offers vast options to improve structural behavior. Successful design of piezoelectric adaptive structures and testing of control laws call for highly accurate, reliable and numerically efficient numerical tools. This paper puts focus onto linear and geometrically nonlinear static and dynamic analysis of smart structures made of such a material system. For this purpose, highly efficient linear 3-node and 4-node finite shell elements are proposed. Both elements employ the Mindlin-Reissner kinematics. The shear locking effect is treated by the discrete shear gap (DSG) technique with the 3-node element and by the assumed natural strain (ANS) approach with the 4-node element. Geometrically nonlinear effects are considered using the co-rotational approach. Static and dynamic examples involving actuator and sensor function of piezoelectric layers are considered.

Discrete steel fibres can increase significantly the bending and the shear resistance of concrete structural elements when Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) is designed in such a way that fibre reinforcing mechanisms are optimized. To assess the fibre reinforcement effectiveness in shallow structural elements failing in bending and in shear, experimental and numerical research were performed. Uniaxial compression and bending tests were executed to derive the constitutive laws of the developed SFRC. Using a cross-section layered model and the material constitutive laws, the deformational behaviour of structural elements failing in bending was predicted from the moment-curvature relationship of the representative cross sections. To evaluate the influence of the percentage of fibres on the shear resistance of shallow structures, three point bending tests with shallow beams were performed. The applicability of the formulation proposed by RILEM TC 162-TDF for the prediction of the shear resistance of SFRC elements was evaluated. Inverse analysis was adopted to determine indirectly the values of the fracture mode I parameters of the developed SFRC. With these values, and using a softening diagram for modelling the crack shear softening behaviour, the response of the SFRC beams failing in shear was predicted.
