One of the most important quality problems in flat plate leveled from hot rolled coils in cut-to-Iength lines is bowing and cambering when they are cut in small width parts. It is verified analytically and experimentally that residual stress remained in plate is th ε source of the problem. In order to produce low residual stress flat plate from hot rolled coils, the proper conditions of leveling are studied and two things are implemented. One is proper plastic deformation area ratio to reduce residual stress within customer requirement by applying suitable plastic deformation and maintain leveling load within structural strength limit of leveler. The other is maintaining uniform plastic deformation along the width of the plate during leveling. Customer requirement for residual stress is met by applying above 70% of plastic deformation area ratio and uniform deformation along width of coil by adjusting back up rolls according to deformation analysis of work roll and back up roll assembly and leveling tests.

Flow Accelerated Corrosion (FAC) occurring during in-service conditions results in localized wall-thinning in the feeder pipes of CANDU. The wall-thinning of the feeder pipes is the main degradation mechanisms affecting the integrity of piping systems. In this paper, we assess the integrity of wall-thinned feeder pipes by limit load analysis. The limit loads for wall-thinning feeder pipes subjected to in-plane bending and internal pressure were determined on the basis of finte element limit analyses. The limit loads are determined from the results of limit analyses of elasticperfectly-plastic materials using the large geometry change. Closed-form approximations of limit load solutions for wall-thinning feeder pipes subjected to in-plane bending and pressure are proposed.

Recently, appearance is recognized as competitiveness as well as self expressing means, so understanding of general people have been rapidly changed. Also, since modem people have interest in an operation as well as various cosmetic treatment fields, a plastic surgery clinic is expanding its region to laser treatment and skin care for modem people. However, the plastic surgery clinic is not located in a building for only hospitals, but located in general neighborhood living facilities or an office building, so medical treatment is performed at the place. It is often found that a building plan can not conform to conditions that the hospital requires. This study is to understand a plane deciding factor of the plastic surgery clinic by analyzing it in a limit of building space and functional aspects of the plastic surgery clinic. A study method is first to investigate space composition according to the function, area allocation according to the function and a space privacy region after classifying study objects into large, middle, small scales so as to understand a functional role of the plastic surgery clinic, and secondly to analyze on the base of length of long and short edges of space and a moving line system after classifying common space types of the plastic surgery clinic through plane analysis of the study objects. As a result of the study, functional space difference according to the scale was shown, and the common space types were affected by length of the long and short edges, and it can influence space composition.

A finite element procedure which can trace plastic collapse behavior of plane frame structures under small and large deformation is presented. The member is assumed to be prismatic and straight, and has the rectangular or I cross section. For the elasto-plastic analysis, the concept of plastic hinge is introduced and the incremental displacement method is applied. The limit state condition of the plastic hinge is considered under the combined condition of a bending moment and an axial force. Numerical examples are presented in order to demonstrate the validity and efficiency of the proposed procedure.

Soil disturbance induced by installation of mandrel driven vertical drains decreases the in situ horizontal hydraulic conductivity of the soil in the vicinity of the drains, decelerating the consolidation rate. According to available literature, several different profiles for the hydraulic conductivity variation with the radial distance from the vertical drain, influencing the excess pore water pressure dissipation rate, have been identified. In addition, it is well known that the visco-plastic properties of the soil also influence the excess pore water pressure dissipation rate and consequently the settlement rate. In this study, a numerical solution adopting an elastic visco-plastic model with nonlinear creep function incorporated in the consolidation equations has been developed to investigate the effects of disturbed zone properties on the time dependent behaviour of soft soil deposits improved with vertical drains and preloading. The employed elastic visco-plastic model is based on the framework of the modified Cam-Clay model capturing soil creep during excess pore water pressure dissipation. Besides, nonlinear variations of creep coefficient with stress and time and permeability variations during the consolidation process are considered. The predicted results have been compared with V$\ddot{a}$sby test fill measurements. According to the results, different variations of the hydraulic conductivity profile in the disturbed zone result in varying excess pore water pressure dissipation rate and consequently varying the effective vertical stresses in the soil profile. Thus, the creep coefficient and the creep strain limit are notably influenced resulting in significant changes in the predicted settlement rate.

When workability at the a certain bulk deformation process is defined as the maximum plastic deformation capability that the workpiece can sustain without causing any cracks or fracture, the workability is dependent on the microstructure, initial workpiece shape, stress state developed during the deformation process, strain rata and presence of the interfacial friction between workpiece and tool. For a review purpose, the workability definition and test methods are summarized depending on the applied stress state at bulk deformation process in Table 1 at the text. In this study, the cold workabilities of as-cast A16061 bulk material have been measured and comparatively analyzed at the primary tensile stress state by using tensile specimens, the primary compressive stress state by using cylindrical specimens, and the forming limit diagram by ductile fracture.

Exposed-type steel column bases are used widely in low-rise building construction. Numerous researchers have examined methods to identify their stiffness and strength, but those studies have heretofore been restricted to in-plane behaviors. This paper presents an experimental investigation of inelastic behaviors of square hollow section (SHS) steel column bases under biaxial bending. Two types of failure modes are considered : anchor bolt yielding and base plate yielding. Different pinching effects and interaction surfaces for biaxial bending are observed for these two modes during bi-directional quasi-static cyclic loading tests. Differences are elucidated using limit analyses based on a simple analytical model.

Until now, there are different kinds of design and evaluation method criteria for ship hulls and ship strength based on allowable stress design using past experiences. But for many sinking accidents of large ships in operation, it has also a doubt about allowable stress design. It is recognized that structural plastic collapse caused by large external force is a main cause of that accidents. Therefore, there is the need for new design criteria based on ultimate limit state with a consideration about progressive collapse behavior as a safety assessment of ship hulls. Also many aluminum alloy ships is built for the purposes of lightweight of ship hulls, with that, a developing of criteria based on ultimate limit state should be made. In this study, the ultimate strength characteristics of aluminum ship hull are investigated by the ALPS/USAS program using already developed design formula for aluminum plate and stiffened panel.

Optimization of mesh discretization has been proposed to improve the accuracy of limit analysis solution of collapse load by using the Rigid Body Spring Model(R. B. S. M) under the plane strain condition. Moreover, the fracture behaviour of materials was investigated by employing the fracture mechanism of a spring connecting the triangular rigid body element. It has been clarified that the collapse load and the geometry of slip boundary for optimized mesh discretization were close to those of the slip line solution. Further, the wedge-shaped fracture of a cylinder under a lateral load and the central fracture of a strip in the drawing process were well simulated.

The purpose of this study is to develop the main program and pre/post processor for the geometric and plastic non-linear analysis of steel jacket structures subjected to wave and earthquake loadings. In this paper, steel jackets are modelled using geometric non-linear space frames and wave loadings re evaluated based on Morrison equation using the linear Airy theory and the fifth Stokes theory. Random wave is generated using JONSWAP spectrum. For earthquake analysis, dynamic analysis is performed using artificial earthquake time history. Also the plastic hinge method is presented for limit analysis of steel jacket. In the companion paper, the pre/post processor is developed and the numerical examples are presented for linear and non-linear dynamic analysis of steel jackets.
