수치해석기법을 이용한 말뚝의 거동특성 예측방법은 정재하시험비가 고가이기 때문에 공사 전 말뚝의 거동을 예측할 수 있다는 장점으로 설계단계에서 널리 이용되고 있지만 그 신뢰성에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 실제 현장에서 말뚝의 거동과 수치해석으로 예측한 말뚝의 거동을 비교함으로써 수치해석 기법의 신뢰성을 검증하였다. 지반과 말뚝의 상호작용에 의한 말뚝의 거동을 정확하게 파악하기 위하여 정재하시험이 수행되는 지반에서 시추조사, 현장원위치시험 등을 통해 지반특성을 확인하였고, 실규모 정재하시험을 수행하여 말뚝의 거동특성을 분석하였다. 정재하시험이 수행된 방식과 동일하게 수치해석을 모사하여 재하시험과 동일한 하중단계에서 말뚝의 거동을 수치해석으로 모사하여 현장시험 결과와 비교함으로써 수치해석 기법의 신뢰성을 검증하였다.

This thesis is results of numerical analyses about test results of discharge capacity apparatus using penetration method. Applicability of numerical approach with FEM technique, using Cam-clay model, was confirmed by analyzing the results of standard consolidation test before analyzing test results of discharge capacity apparatus using penetration method. Thus, input parameters for the model was convinced to be appropriate. For numerical analyses about test results of discharge capacity apparatus using penetration method, identical initial and loading conditions during tests were applied to simulate test results correctly. Effects of ground disturbance resulted from installment of vertical drains on the behaviors of consolidation were also simulated. Applicability of numerical approach was investigated by comparing test results with numerical ones. As results of them, both of consolidation settlement were found to be in good agreements so that its applicability was confirmed. As results of numerical estimation, degree of consolidation with the condition of considering smear zone was found to be delayed, compared with results without smear zone. On the other hands, parametric numerical analyses of changing parameters related to smear zone such as permeability and size of smear zone and permeability of vertical drain were also carried out.

The numerical simulations on the influence of mesoscopic structures on the macroscopic strength and fracture characteristics are carried out based on that the concrete is assumed to be a three-phase composite composed of matrix (mortar), aggregate and bond between them by using a numerical code named MFPA. The finite element program is employed as the basic stress analysis tool when the elastic damage mechanics is used to describe the constitutive law of meso-level element and the maximum tensile strain criterion and Mohr-Coulomb criterion are utilized as damage threshold. It can be found from the numerical results that the bond between matrix and aggregate has a significant effect on the macroscopic mechanical performance of concrete.

In order to integrate two consolidation theories of Terzaghi's consolidation theory and Mesri's secondary compression theory and to identify a model suitable for analyzing stress-strain behavior over time, numerical analysis on consolidation tests were conducted using a modified cam-clay model and a soft soil creep model and the following conclusions were obtained. The results of numerical analysis applying the theory that a linear proportional relationship is established between the void ratio at logarithmic scale and the permeability coefficient at logarithmic scale is better agreement with the result of oedometer test than the results of applying constant hydraulic conductivity. The modified cam-clay model is a model that does not include secondary compression, but the slope of the normal consolidation line corresponding to the compression index of the standard consolidation test includes secondary compression, so the actual settlement curve over time is lower than the predicted value through numerical analysis. It always gets smaller. Other previous studies that applied Terzaghi's consolidation theory to consolidation test analysis showed the same results and were cross-confirmed. The soft soil creep model, which includes secondary compression in the theory, showed good agreement in all sections including secondary compression in the consolidation test results. It was judged appropriate to use a soft soil creep model when performing numerical analysis of soft clay ground.

In this paper, the HPMM(Horizontal Planar Motion Mechanism) test is simulated in a numerical towing tank by using a commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) code, FLUENT. The results of calculation are compared with those of static drift test or rotating arm test calculated by CFD to verify the results simulated by CFD. Through comparing pure sway test of HPMM test with static drift test and pure yaw test of HPMM with rotating arm test, it is found that HPMM test can be simulated in the numerical towing tank.

In this study, a large-scale laboratory model test, 2-D and 3-D numerical analyses were conducted to verify the reinforcement effect by utilizing geotextile bag on the railway roadbed. Static loading which simulated train load was applied on the geotextile bag-reinforced railway roadbed and also unreinforced railway roadbed, Computer program named Pentagon which is a part of FEM programs was used in the numerical analysis. Based on the results of laboratory test, 2-D and 3-D numerical analyses, the effect of load distribution and settlement reduction was found to be depending on the geotextile characteristics, tensile strength of geotextite, and interface friction angle between geotextile bags. In general, the result of 2-D and 3-D numerical analyses shows lower value than that of laboratory test. Also, the result of 3-D numerical analyses shows lower value than that of 2-D numerical analyses because of its stress transfer effect.

This paper discusses the hydrodynamic characteristics of a catamaran at low speed. In this study, the Delft 372 catamaran model was selected as the target hull to analyze the hydrodynamic characteristics by using the RANS (Reynold-Averaged Navier-Stokes) numerical method. First, the turbulence study and mesh independent study were conducted to select the appropriate method for numerical calculation. The numerical method for the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) calculation was verified by comparing the hydrodynamic force with that obtained experimentally at high speed condition and it rendered a good agreement. Second, the virtual captive model test for a catamaran at low speed was conducted using the verified method. The drift test with drift angle 0-180 degrees was performed and the resulting hydrodynamic forces were compared with the trends of other ship types. Also, the pure rotating test and yaw rotating test proposed by Takashina, (1986) were conducted. The Fourier coefficients obtained from the measured hydrodynamic force were compared with those of other ship types. Conversely, pure sway test and pure yaw test also were simulated to obtain added mass coefficients. By analyzing these results, the hydrodynamic coefficients of the catamaran at low speed were estimated. Finally, the maneuvering simulation in low speed conditions was performed by using the estimated hydrodynamic coefficients.

This paper considers the tensile strength of concrete samples in direct, CTT, modified tension, splitting and ring tests using both of the experimental tests and numerical simulation (particle flow code 2D). It determined that which one of indirect tensile strength is close to direct tensile strength. Initially calibration of PFC was undertaken with respect to the data obtained from Brazilian laboratory tests to ensure the conformity of the simulated numerical models response. Furthermore, validation of the simulated models in four introduced tests was also cross checked with the results from experimental tests. By using numerical testing, the failure process was visually observed and failure patterns were watched to be reasonable in accordance with experimental results. Discrete element simulations demonstrated that the macro fractures in models are caused by microscopic tensile breakages on large numbers of bonded discs. Tensile strength of concrete in direct test was less than other tests results. Tensile strength resulted from modified tension test was close to direct test results. So modified tension test can be a proper test for determination of tensile strength of concrete in absence of direct test. Other advantages shown by modified tension tests are: (1) sample preparation is easy and (2) the use of a simple conventional compression press controlled by displacement compared with complicate device in other tests.

This paper presents field study and numerical modeling results for a single-cell low-fill concrete box culvert under a flexible pavement subjected to traffic loading. The culvert in the field test was instrumented with displacement transducers to capture the deformations resulting from different combinations of static and traffic loads. A low-boy truck with a known axle configuration and loads was used to apply seven static load combinations and traffic loads at different speeds. Deflections under the culvert roof were measured during loading. Soil and pavement samples were obtained by drilling operation on the test site. The properties of the soil and pavement layers were determined in the laboratory. A 3-D numerical model of the culvert was developed using a finite difference program FLAC3D. Linear elastic models were used for the pavement layers and soil. The numerical results with the material properties determined in the laboratory were compared with the field test results. The observed deflections in the field test were generally smaller under moving loads than static loads. The maximum deflections measured during the static and traffic loads were 0.6 mm and 0.41 mm respectively. The deflections computed by the numerical method were in good agreement with those observed in the field test. The deflection profiles obtained from the field test and the numerical simulation suggest that the traffic load acted more like a concentrated load distributed over a limited area on the culvert. Elastic models for culverts, pavement layers, and surrounding soil are appropriate for numerical modeling of box culverts under loading for load rating purposes.

항공기용 연료탱크는 평상시에는 연료저장 등의 단순한 기능을 한다. 그러나, 항공기 추락과 같은 긴급 상황에서는 연료탱크 구조건전성은 승무원의 생존과 직결되므로, 관련 성능의 보유 여부를 충돌충격시험을 통해 입증하도록 규정되어 있다. 충돌충격시험은 높은 충격하중으로 실패 위험이 높기 때문에 설계 초기 실물시험에서의 시행착오 가능성을 최소화하기 위한 노력이 진행되어 왔다. 실제 시험 전에 수행하는 수치해석도 그러한 노력의 일환이다. 하지만, 수치해석 결과가 설계에 반영되기 위해서는 수치해석의 신뢰성 확보가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 회전익항공기 연료탱크의 충돌충격시험 수치해석의 신뢰성 확보를 위해 수치해석 결과와 시험 데이타 간의 비교를 수행하였다. 수치해석은 충돌전용 소프트웨어인 LS-DYNA을 사용하였고, 해석방법은 유체-구조연성해석 방법 중 ALE(arbitary lagrangian eulerian) 방법을 적용하였다. 시험데이터 확보를 위해 연료탱크 금속 피팅부에 변형률게이지를 설치하고 데이터 획득장비와 연동시켰다. 수치해석 결과로써 연료탱크 피팅부의 변형률과 응력을 계산하였다. 그리고, 실물 연료탱크로 수행한 충돌충격시험을 통하여 확보한 상부피팅의 변형률 측정값과 수치해석으로 계산된 변형률과의 오차를 평가함으로써 수치해석의 신뢰성을 제고하였다.
