This work aims at studing the stress-strain-strength behavior of an CSG(cemented sand and gravel) materials. An analysis of the mechanical behavior of the CSG is performed from the interpretation of results by unconfined compression test, large triaxial compression test in which the influence of both the degree of cementation and age. For CSG, It was concluded that the characterristics of compression are direct measurment of the degree of cementation and age. In addition, hyperbolic model is adopted to express the relation between elastic moduli and cementation, age, confined stress in small strain. The results of the test show that clear correlation with each other

Undrained triaxial tests were peformed for a weathered soil, which includes local measurement using LVDT The behavior from small In large strain conditions could be evaluated consistently through a triaxial test, The stress-strain relationship of undisturbed samples were compared with the disturbed and the shear moduli in the small strain level had the almost same values. Especially the shear moduli were mostly affected by the initial condition of water contents. An anisotropic hardening model based on the total stress concept could predict the stress-strain relationship accurately, which makes it possible to analyze the geotechnical problem reasonably for the weathered soil.

An elasto-plastic constitutive model was proposed, in which the behavior at small-to-large strain level can be modeled. The proposed model is based on the anisotropic hardening description with the generalization of isotropic hardening rule and the total stress concept. From a mathematical approach it was proved that the model includes the previous successful models. The model was verified by a series of resonant column tests, torsional shear tests and triaxial tests, and the proposed model predicted small-to-large strain behavior more consistently and accurately than the hyperbolic model and the Ramberg-Osgood model for a weathered granitic soil. In addition, the nonlinearity under small strain condition was predicted appropriately for the torsional shear test results.

We present the numerical characteristics of a new true stress-strain curve acquisition method over a large range of strains by the tensile test and a finite element method through comparing the results obtained by various finite element mesh systems. The method is introduced in detail. The effects of the finite element mesh systems on the results are investigated to show its numerical characteristics of the new method. It is shown that the method is quite robust, implying that it can be used as a special function of the tensile test machines.

Laboratory investigation reveals that rockfills exhibit significant stress-path-dependent behavior during shearing, therefore realistic prediction of deformation of rockfill structures requires suitable constitutive models to properly reproduce such behavior. This paper evaluates the capability of a strain hardening model proposed by the authors, by comparing simulation results with large-scale triaxial stress-path test results. Despite of its simplicity, the model can simulate essential aspects of the shear behavior of rockfills, including the non-linear stress-strain relationship, the stress-dependence of the stiffness, the non-linear strength behavior, and the shearing contraction and dilatancy. More importantly, the model is shown to predict the markedly different stress-strain and volumetric behavior along various loading paths with fair accuracy. All parameters required for the model can be derived entirely from the results of conventional large triaxial tests with constant confining pressures.

The objective of this paper is to predict and evaluate the sealing performance of the thermoplastic rubber component in the proto-design stage. The large strain and large deformation properties of rubber are modeled by strain energy function and the related material constants are calculated from the test data. The viscoelastic property of the rubber is also considered using the coefficients in a Prony series representation of a viscoelastic modulus ken the compression stress relaxation test. The results show that the current design of cap mount system has 2-different stiffness caused by the cap-mount contact and the viscoelastic property of rubber plays an important role in time dependent deformation.

The rubber materials are widely used in automobile industry due to their capability of a large amount of elastic deformation under a force. Current trend of design process requires prediction of functional properties of parts at early stage. The behavior of rubber material can be modeled using strain energy density function. In this study, five different strain energy density functions - Neo-Hookean model, Reduced Polynomial $2^{nd}$ model, Ogden $3^{rd}$ model, Arruda Boyce model and Van der Waals model - were used to estimate the behavior of carbon black added natural rubber under uniaxial load. Two kinds of tests - uniaxial tension test and biaxial tension test - were performed and used to correlate the coefficients of the strain energy density function. Numerical simulations were carried out using finite element analysis and compared with experimental results. Simulation revealed that Ogden $3^{rd}$ model predicted the behavior of carbon added natural rubber under uniaxial load regardless of experimental data selection for coefficient correlation. However, Reduced Polynomial $2^{nd}$, Ogden $3^{rd}$, and Van der Waals with uniaxial tension test and biaxial tension test data selected for coefficient correlation showed close estimation of behavior of biaxial tension test. Reduced Polynomial $2^{nd}$ model predicted the behavior of biaxial tension test most closely.

To understand the large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) behavior of complex fluids, we have investigated the flow behavior of a network model in the LAOS environment. We applied the LAOS flow to the model proposed by Vaccaro and Marrucci (2000), which was originally developed to describe the system of associating telechelic polymers. The model was found to predict at least three different types of LAOS behavior; strain thinning (G' and G" decreasing), strong strain overshoot (G' and G" increasing followed by decreasing), and weak strain overshoot (G' decreasing, G" increasing followed by decreasing). The overshoot behavior in the strain sweep test, which il often observed in some complex fluid systems with little explanation, could be explained in terms of the model parameters, or in terms of the overall balance between the creation and loss rates of the network junctions, which are continually created and destroyed due to thermal and flow energy. This model does not predict strain hardening behavior because of the finitely extensible nonlinear elastic (FENE) type nonlinear effect of loss rate. However, the model predicts the LAOS behavior of most of the complex fluids observed in the experiments.he experiments.

This study performed to establish tile characteristics of constant rate of strain consolidation(CRSC) tests. The values obtained by the CRCS tests were compared with oedometer tests. From the comparision of the results of oedometer and CRSC tests for soft soil from Haenam, Korea, it was concluded that. 1. When rate of strain is 0.9mm/hr, compression curve of CRSC test was not coincided with those of tile oedometer test, then preconsolidation stress was larger than those of other rates of strain. 2. Permeabilities from CRSC tests and direct measurements were about same each other, but permeabilities from Oedometer tests were large than those from others.

In this study, an optical-fiber sensor was used to measure loads that could act in an environment similar to the loading conditions that exist in an actual pipe. The structure and the installation method of the optical-fiber strain sensor were applied considering the actual large pipe and the buried pipe environment. Load tests were performed using a displacement sensor and sandbags to determine the deflection of the pipe according to the external load, and the linear measurement results were verified. Considering the conditions that could exist in the actual pipe, the test method was presented, and the strain of the buried pipe generated at this time was measured.
