The actual behavior of the railroad track structure is suspected to be a complex interaction between the vertical, lateral, longitudinal, and torsional behaviors. A FE program are developed in the present study to be used for extensive nonlinear analysis of the track structures subjected to thermal load. Using the rigorous study on the deformed shape of the rail and tie, and stress resultants, characteristics of the three dimensional behavior are investigated. It is found that the flexural rigidity of the tie and the rotational stiffness of pad-fastener can be affect the behavior of the track structure and the postbuckling behavior in each rail, except lateral behavior, is not same.

Open-Steel-Plate-Girder railway bridges, in general, have plain concrete gravity pier without piles at foundations. Such piers are vulnerable to be overturned against braking forces and ground shakings during an earthquake. Thus, this study suggests a strengthening method using earth anchors to improve the resistance of plain concrete gravity piers to the overturn of themselves. Also, a filed test was performed for the as-built and the strengthened pier and the test results were compared to assess the strengthening effect. The earth anchors increased the ultimated capacity for the pier's overturn. Finally, a FE analysis was conducted using nonlinear elements for soil to understand the distribution of the soil stresses for the as-built and the strengthened pier.

Tubular joints having a large diameter are reinforced using internal ring stiffener in order to increase the load carrying capacity. In this study, the static strengths of Internally ring-stiffened tubular T-joints subjected to compressive brace loading are assessed. Nonlinear finite element analyses are used to compute the behavior of unstiffened and ring-stiffened T-joints. From the numerical results, Internal ring stiffener is found to efficient in improving the ultimate capacity, and reinforcement effect are calculated. The influence of geometric parameters for members and ring is evaluated. Based on the FE results, regression analysis is performed considering practical sizes of ring stiffener, finally strength estimation formulae for ring-stiffened T-joints are proposed.

The crushable front part of the conventional TGV is composed of 3 energy absorption zones; retractable coupler, protective headstock and honeycomb structure. This frontal part must absorb about 80% of the energy that should be done in a cra shworthy design. The conventional TGV can absorb 2MJ impact energy by the frontal end, but 5MJ is the design target for energy absorption in the next generation TGV. To accomplish this design goal, a new concept of design is necessary for energy absorbing components. In this paper, the design concept of the tube expansion energy absorber will be proposed and analyzed. The crash analysis of the energy absorber are performed by comparing the value of the theoretical equation wi th the simulation calculated from the commercial nonlinear FE-Code ‘PAM-CRASH’ S/W.

The finite element method (FEM) is suitable for the analysis of a complicated region that includes nonlinear materials, whereas the boundary element method (BEM) is naturally effective for analyzing a very large region with linear characteristics. Therefore, considering the advantages in both methods, a novel algorithm for the alternate application of the FEM and BEM to magnetic field problems with the open boundary is presented. This approach avoids the disadvantages of the typical numerical methods with the open boundary problem such as a great number of unknown values for the FEM and non-symmetric matrix for the Hybrid FE-BE method. The solution of the overall problems is obtained by iterative calculations accompanied with the new acceleration method.

The results of a numerical investigation pertaining to the hysteretic behaviour of concrete filled steel tubular (CFT) column to I-beam connections are discussed in detail. Following the verification of the numerical results against the available experimental tests, the nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis was implemented to evaluate the effects of different parameters including the column axial load, beam lateral support, shape and arrangement of stiffeners, stiffness of T-stiffeners, and the number of shear stiffeners. Pursuing this objective, an external CFT column to beam connection, tested previously, was selected as the case-study. The lateral forces on the structure were simulated, albeit approximately, using an incremental cyclic loading reversal applied at the beam tip. The results were compared in terms of hysteretic load-displacement curves, stress distributions in connection, strength, rotation, and energy dissipation capacity. It was shown that external T-stiffeners combined with internal shear stiffeners play an important role in the hysteretic performance of CFT columns to I-beam connections.

In order to increase the load carrying capacity of tubular structures, the joints of tubular members are usually reinforced with various reinforcement system. A stiffening method with internal ring stiffeners is effectively used for the steel tubular joint with a large diameter. In this study, the behavior of internally ring-stiffened tubular T-joints subjected to axial loading is assessed. For the parametric study, nonlinear finite element analyses are used to compute the static strength on non-stiffened and ring-stiffened T-joints. Based on the numerical results, an internal ring stiffener is found to be efficient in improving the static strength. The influence of geometric parameters has been determined, and the reinforcement effect are evaluated. Based on the FE results, regression analises are performed considering the practical size of ring stiffener. Finally strength estimation formulas for ring-stiffened tubular T-joints are proposed.

Two unknown values among three electrochemical values, i.e. electrode area, diffusion coefficient, and concentration, are simultaneously obtained by nonlinear regression analysis of a single chronoamperometric faradaic current curve at a microdisk electrode. The approach is an analytical application of the semi-empirical equation presented by Shoup and Szabo for the chronoamperometric response at a disk electrode. To demonstrate the usefulness and accuracy of this approach, the chronoamperometric current at a platinum disk electrode of 50 ${\mu}m$ radius in solutions of $Ru(NH_3)_6^{3+},\;ferrocene,\;Fe(CN)_6^{3-},\;and\;C_{60}$, were analyzed.

2016년 7월부터 강제 적용 예정인 목표기반 선박건조 기준(GBS)의 설계단계의 기능요건 중 잔류강도 평가 부분은 현재의 유조선설계, 건조 규칙인 공통구조규칙에는 아직 포함되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 기능요건에 포함된 잔류강도 부분은 충돌이나 좌초와 같은 해상사고시 발생가능한 선체손상을 고려하여 강도측면의 제한조건을 규정함으로써 사고시에도 일정부분 선박의 안전을 확보하려는 것이다. GBS에서 주로 다루고 있는 위험도에 근거하여 잔류강도를 평가하기 위해서는 다양한 손상에 대한 광범위한 평가 작업이 필요하다. 이때, 매번 비선형 유한요소해석을 수행하기보다 선체구조를 보강판 요소의 집합으로 보는 간이화된 강도 해석법의 하나인 Smith법이 유용할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 좌초사고로 인해 선저가 손상된 경우를 대상으로 Smith법을 적용하여 최종강도 평가를 수행하였으며, 3개의 화물창 구역을 모델링하여 수행한 비선형 구조해석 결과와의 비교를 통해 Smith법을 적용한 결과의 정도를 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 부식에 의하여 발생하는 표면 단면손상을 고려하여 인위적인 표면 단면손상이 도입된 원형인장 부재의 인장성능 변화를 평가하였다. 인장성능 평가를 위하여 부식수준에 따른 인위적인 단면손상을 손상 폭과 높이를 변화시켜 원형강관 시험체 표면에 도입하였으며, 단면손상 수준에 따른 인장성능 변화를 평가하였다. 인장강도 실험 결과, 원형단면 강관부재의 인장강도는 강관부재의 길이 방향 손상이 아닌 부재 둘레 방향 손상의 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 부재의 파괴는 손상이 발생한 부재의 최소 단면에서 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 표면에 불규칙한 손상이 도입된 강관 시험체의 단면조건을 명확하게 평가할 수 없으므로, 단면손상으로 인한 인장강도 변화를 정량적으로 비교하기 위하여 동일 단면 감소효과가 고려된 강관 부재에 대한 비선형 구조해석을 실시하였다. 비선형 구조해석 결과, 실제 부재 표면에 국부적 단면손상이 발생한 부재의 인장강도는 동일 단면 감소효과를 고려한 부재의 인장강도에 비하여 상대적으로 급격하게 저하하는 것으로 평가되었다. 국부부식과 같이 표면에 불규칙한 단면손상이 발생한 부재의 잔존인장성능은 인장시험과 등가손상 단면과 구조해석 결과로부터 평가된 상관계수를 이용하여 평가 및 예측될 수 있을 것이다.
