Seismic records are composed of mainshock and a series of aftershocks which often result in the incremental damage to underground structures and bring great challenges to the rescue of post-disaster and the repair of post-earthquake. In this paper, the repetition method was used to construct the mainshock-aftershocks sequence which was used as the input ground motion for the analysis of dynamic time history. Based on the Daikai station, the two-dimensional finite element model of soil-station was established to explore the failure process of station under different seismic precautionary intensities, and the concept of incremental damage of station was introduced to quantitatively analyze the damage condition of structure under the action of mainshock and two aftershocks. An arc rubber bearing was proposed for the shock absorption. With the arc rubber bearing, the mode of the traditional column end connection was changed from "fixed connection" to "hinged joint", and the ductility of the structure was significantly improved. The results show that the damage condition of the subway station is closely related to the magnitude of the mainshock. When the magnitude of the mainshock is low, the incremental damage to the structure caused by the subsequent aftershocks is little. When the magnitude of the mainshock is high, the subsequent aftershocks will cause serious incremental damage to the structure, and may even lead to the collapse of the station. The arc rubber bearing can reduce the damage to the station. The results can offer a reference for the seismic design of subway stations under the action of mainshock-aftershocks.

Transmission tower structures are particularly susceptible to damage and even collapse under strong seismic ground motions. Conventional seismic analyses of transmission towers are usually performed by considering only ground motion uncertainty while ignoring structural uncertainty; consequently, the performance evaluation and failure prediction may be inaccurate. In this context, the present study numerically investigates the seismic responses and failure mechanism of transmission towers by considering multiple sources of uncertainty. To this end, an existing transmission tower is chosen, and the corresponding three-dimensional finite element model is created in ABAQUS software. Sensitivity analysis is carried out to identify the relative importance of the uncertain parameters in the seismic responses of transmission towers. The numerical results indicate that the impacts of the structural damping ratio, elastic modulus and yield strength on the seismic responses of the transmission tower are relatively large. Subsequently, a set of 20 uncertainty models are established based on random samples of various parameter combinations generated by the Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) method. An uncertainty analysis is performed for these uncertainty models to clarify the impacts of uncertain structural factors on the seismic responses and failure mechanism (ultimate bearing capacity and failure path). The numerical results show that structural uncertainty has a significant influence on the seismic responses and failure mechanism of transmission towers; different possible failure paths exist for the uncertainty models, whereas only one exists for the deterministic model, and the ultimate bearing capacity of transmission towers is more sensitive to the variation in material parameters than that in geometrical parameters. This research is expected to provide an in-depth understanding of the influence of structural uncertainty on the seismic demand assessment of transmission towers.

연구 목적: 임플란트 식립시에 발생할 수 있는 열변화는 임플란트의 실패를 초래할 수 있다. 식립토크에 따른 열변화 양상을 파악함으로 임플란트의 형태에 따른 차이점과 적절한 식립토크가 어떤 것인지 파악하고자 한다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 실험재료로는 두께 15 - 20 mm의 소 견갑골을 가로 35 mm, 세로 40 - 50 mm 크기가 되도록 골편으로 자르고 이중에 피질골의 두께가 2 - 3 mm 되는 표본을 선정한 후 표본의 반을 $36.5^{\circ}C$ 수조에 실온 $25^{\circ}C$에 노출 시켜 내부 온도는 평균 $36.5^{\circ}C$, 표면온도 $28^{\circ}C$가 되도록 설계하였다. $4.5{\times}10\;mm$의 외부육각을 가지는 Br${\aa}$nemark 형태의 임플란트와 $4.8{\times}10\;mm$의 Microthread 형태를 지니는 내부연결 형태의 임플란트를 과도한 식립토크로 식립하고 온도 측정은 계측점에서 0.2 mm 이내에 열전대를 위치시켜 기록하였다. 삼차원유한요소 분석은 골의 형태를 가로 4 cm, 세로 4 cm, 높이 2 cm의 직육면체로 가정하고, 직육면체 윗면에서 2 mm까지를 피질골, 그 아랫부분을 해면골이라고 가정하였다. 마찰열은 매식이 종료된 상황에서 골에 남는 cavity 모양을 기초로 경계조건을 부여하였다. CAD 프로그램인 SolidWorks 소프트웨어를 이용하였고, 이를 유한요소 구조해석용 프로그램인 Abaqus 6.9-1로 불러들여 해석하였다. 결과 및 결론: In vitro실험에서 Microthread type의 임플란트가 상대적으로 더 높은 최고점 온도를 보여주고 있으며 이는 임플란트의 형태에 따른 마찰열 발생이 주요 원인으로 보인다. 유한요소분석을 통해 살펴본 결과 Br${\aa}$nemark 형태의 임플란트의 경우 50 Ncm이상에서 Microthread를 가지는 형태의 경우에는 35 Ncm이상에서 Eriksson 등이 보고한 역치를 초과하는 온도가 발생하였다. 이를 통해 볼 때 Microthread type 이 식립토크에 따른 온도 증가가 더 민감함을 알 수 있다. 실험결과를 통해서 서로 다른 형태의 임플란트 식립시에 임플란트의 형태에 따라 적절한 삽입토크를 부여하는 것이 성공적인 임플란트 시술에 중요한 요소 중에 하나임을 알 수 있었다. 특히 Microthread를 갖는 임플란트 형태는 높은 초기고정성을 얻을 수 있다는 장점이 있는 반면 과도한 식립 토크로 인한 열 손상 가능성을 가질 수 있으므로 골량과 골질의 신중한 평가와 적절한 수술기법이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The research work is concerned with the analytical and experimental studies on the heat transfer phenomenon around the underground concrete digester used for biogas production Systems. A mathematical and computational method was developed to estimate heat losses from underground cylindrical concrete digester used for biogas production systems. To test its feasibility and to evaluate thermal parameters of materials related, the method was applied to six physical model digesters. The cylindrical concrete digester was taken as a physical model, to which the model,atical model of heat balance can be applied. The mathematical model was transformed by means of finite element method and used to analyze temperature distribution with respect to several boundary conditions and design parameters. The design parameters of experimental digesters were selected as; three different sizes 40cm by 80cm, 80cm by 160cm and l00cm by 200cm in diameter and height; two different levels of insulation materials-plain concrete and vermiculite mixing in concrete; and two different types of installation-underground and half-exposed. In order to carry out a particular aim of this study, the liquid within the digester was substituted by water, and its temperature was controlled in five levels-35。 C, 30。 C, 25。 C, 20。C and 15。C; and the ambient air temperature and ground temperature were checked out of the system under natural winter climate conditions. The following results were drawn from the study. 1.The analytical method, by which the estimated values of temperature distribution around a cylindrical digester were obtained, was able to be generally accepted from the comparison of the estimated values with the measured. However, the difference between the estimated and measured temperature had a trend to be considerably increased when the ambient temperature was relatively low. This was mainly related variations of input parameters including the thermal conductivity of soil, applied to the numerical analysis. Consequently, the improvement of these input data for the simulated operation of the numerical analysis is expected as an approach to obtain better refined estimation. 2.The difference between estimated and measured heat losses was shown to have the similar trend to that of temperature distribution discussed above. 3.It was found that a map of isothermal lines drawn from the estimated temperature distribution was very useful for a general observation of the direction and rate of heat transfer within the boundary. From this analysis, it was interpreted that most of heat losses is passed through the triangular section bounded within 45 degrees toward the wall at the bottom edge of the digesten Therefore, any effective insulation should be considered within this region. 4.It was verified by experiment that heat loss per unit volume of liquid was reduced as the size of the digester became larger For instance, at the liquid temperature of 35˚ C, the heat loss per unit volume from the 0. 1m$^3$ digester was 1, 050 Kcal/hr m$^3$, while at for 1. 57m$^3$ digester was 150 Kcal/hr m$^3$. 5.In the light of insulation, the vermiculite concrete was consistently shown to be superior to the plain concrete. At the liquid temperature ranging from 15。 C to 350 C, the reduction of heat loss was ranged from 5% to 25% for the half-exposed digester, while from 10% to 28% for the fully underground digester. 6.In the comparison of heat loss between the half-exposed and underground digesters, the heat loss from the former was fr6m 1,6 to 2, 6 times as much as that from the latter. This leads to the evidence that the underground digester takes advantage of heat conservation during winter.

최근 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 연속 교량은 다양한 공법에 의해 시공되어지고 있으며, 특히 세스먼트로 시공되는 ILM(Incremental Launching Method)과 MSS(Movable Scaffolding System) 공법을 사용하는 경우 교량 단면에서 시공이음이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 시공이음부에서 연속적인 트리스트레스 하중을 도입하기 위해서는 텐던을 겹침이음(overlapping)하거나 텐던 커플러를 사용하는 방법이 있다. 본 연구에서는 텐던 커플러를 사용한 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 교량 부재의 텐던 접속이음에 대한 응력 상태를 구명하고자 하였으며, 이를 위해 텐던의 커플링 효과를 고려한 실험과 유한요소 해석을 수행하였다. 유한요소 해석 결과와 실험에서 얻은 접속이음부의 응력 상태는 비교적 잘 일치하는 것으로 잘 나타났으며, 텐던 커플러를 사용한 접속이음부의 응력 상태는 텐던 커플러를 사용하지 않은 경우에 비해 종방향 및 횡방향 응력 상태가 상당히 다르게 나타나고 있다. 특히 구조적으로 문제가 되는 종방향 압축응력은 접속이음부 주위에서 텐던의 접속 비율이 증가함에 따라 크게 감소하는 것으로 나타나고 있다. 이러한 텐던 접속이음부 주위에서의 종방향 압축 응력의 감소는 활하중, 온도하중 및 건조수축으로 인해 프리스트레스트 교량에 인장응력이 작용할 때 균열이 발생할 수 있는 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구에서 얻은 텐던 접속이음부에서의 응력 상태는 향후 텐던 접속이음부의 구조 거동을 평가하고, 해석 및 설계에 유용한 기초 자료를 제시하고 있다.

The load carrying capacity of a bridge needs to be properly assessed to operate the bridge safely and maintain it efficiently. For the evaluation of load carrying capacity considering the current state of a bridge, static and quasi-static loading tests with weight-controlled heavy trucks have been conventionally utilized. In these tests, the deflection (or strain) of the structural members loaded by the controlled vehicles are measured and analyzed. Using the measured data, deflection (or strain) correction factor and impact correction factor are calculated. These correction factors are used in the enhancement of the load carrying capacity of a bridge, reflecting the real state of a bridge. However, full or partial control of the traffic during the tests and difficulties during the installment of displacement transducers or strain gauges may cause not only inconvenience to the traffic but also the increase of the logistics cost and time. To overcome these difficulties, an alternative method is proposed using an excited response part of full measured ambient acceleration data by ordinary traffic on a bridge without traffic control. Based on the modal properties extracted from the ambient vibration data, the initial finite element (FE) model of a bridge can be updated to represent the current real state of a bridge. Using the updated FE model, the deflection of a bridge akin to the real value can be easily obtained without measuring the real deflection. Impact factors are obtained from pseudo-deflection, which is obtained by double-integration of the acceleration data with removal of the linear components on the acceleration data. For validation, a series of tests were carried out on a steel plategirder bridge of an expressway in Korea in four different seasons, and the evaluated load carrying capacities of the bridge by the proposed method are compared with the result obtained by the conventional load test method.

이 논문에서는 외부강선으로 긴장된 PSC 거더의 비선형 해석방법에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 외부강선은 정착부와 편향부에서만 부재와 일체로 거동을 하고 정착부-편향부, 편향부-편향부 사이에서 독립적인 거동을 보이는 특성으로 인해 구조물의 처짐이 증가할 경우 부재와 외부강선의 편심량이 감소하여 모멘트가 변화하는 2차 효과(secondary effect)가 발생한다. 또한 편향부에서 외부강선의 인장력 차이로 인해 슬립(slip)이 발생할 경우 외부강선의 인장력이 재분배되어 복잡한 비선형 거동을 보이게 된다. 이 논문에서는 정착부-편향부, 편향부-편향부 사이의 외부강선을 여러 개의 곡선요소로 모사하고, 편향부에서의 마찰력과 driving force(미끄러지는 힘)의 평형관계를 이용하여 외부강선의 인장력을 재분배함으로써 편향부에서의 슬립효과를 고려하였다. 이 논문에서 제시한 외부강선의 유한요소모델과 해석방법을 저자들이 개발한 시공단계를 고려한 PSC 뼈대의 비선형 해석 프로그램에 통합하고, 외부강선으로 긴장된 PSC 보의 해석에 적용하여 외부강선에 대한 유한요소모델 및 해석방법의 정당성과 적용성을 확인하였다. 또한 편향부의 수와 편향부에서의 마찰계수에 따른 극한거동을 검토해본 결과, 편향부의 수가 증가할수록 PSC 보의 항복하중과 극한하중은 증가하였으며, 편향부에서의 마찰계수에 따른 극한거동은 외부강선과 편향부 사이의 마찰력으로 인해 부재에 전달되는 모멘트의 영향에 따라 마찰계수가 적정한 값일 경우에 극한내력이 최대치를 보이는 것을 확인하였다.

Protection of cultural heritage and carrying it to the future are at the top of the significant topics of research and implementation in engineering in the 21st century. There are several historical structures in the district of Ahlat located in the east of Turkey on the Lake Van Basin that has harbored many civilizations. Some of such works are the gravestones that are found in the Ahlat Seljuk Cemetery, which is the oldest and largest cemetery in the district. This study firstly provides information about the Ahlat Seljuk Cemetery and the gravestones found in it. Observation-based structural analyses were carried out on these gravestones that are found in this area that are known to have belonged to different civilizations based on their physical and constructional characteristics. These stones were built out of Ahlat stone as single pieces. Information is provided on the damages that have occurred on the gravestones in time and their causes. In general, losses of mass, abrasions, separations, collapses and calcifications due to natural conditions, as well as vegetative formations, were observed in the gravestones. To provide an example of other gravestones within the context of the study, the gravestone that is known to belong to the person named Nureddin Ebu Hasan was selected. As a result of the modeling that was carried out for this gravestone by using the finite elements method, modal analyses were carried out. With these analyses, for the gravestone, period, effective mass participation rates and stress values were calculated. The stress values that were obtained in this study were compared to the material safety stress values that were obtained in previous studies. Additionally, QR code application was created for the gravestone that was selected as an example in the study, and information on this gravestone was transferred to an electronic environment. The QR code application includes different language options, visuals of the gravestone and information on the gravestone. The QR application was also supported with a video of the cemetery where the gravestone is located. With this application, access to information about gravestones will be possible by using tablets and smartphones. With a QR code to be created for each gravestone, these gravestones will obtain identity cards.
