This study examined the stability of cross- and box-type artificial reefs used to construct seaweed beds. Theoretical and experimental studies have clarified the Froude similitude. However, basic data needed to develop a more stable design for artificial reefs must be collected from long-term studies and analyses of sliding caused by waves. Hydraulic experiments are important for solving problems in the design and construction of artificial reefs. This study examined some design parameters for artificial reefs under wave and currents. The results showed the stability of cross- and box-type artificial reefs for constructing seaweed beds using a dimensionless parameter (the surf similarity parameter), water particle velocity, and so on. The hydraulics experiment indicated that the stability of artificial reefs differed according to their method of installation. This implies that artificial reefs should be installed after considering various environmental factors, such as wave breaking, reflection, and sediments.

A hydraulic scale model test with movable bed was performed to obtain design data for groins to protect the coast in front of the Sang-ri seadike in Sukmodo, located in the Han-river estuary area. The vertical scale of the model is 1/100 and the horizontal scale 1/250 according to Froude similitude. The result of test for original coast and groins showed that the coast in front of the Sang-ri seadike was eroded by tidal current. Three alternatives for the planning of new groins were tested. It is concluded that the alternative B-3 test scheme was the best plan to protect the coast among others.

A design of a subscale solid propellant rocket motor was conducted to do the similitude experiments for the large scale rocket motor. One of the main factor to subscale was the mach number of the solid propellant flume through a nozzle exit The analysis of the flume flow was done to obtain the mach number for the large and subscale rocket motor. The flume shapes on the non dimensional axises by the nozzle exit diameter was matched each other. The propellant grain of a subscale solid rocket motor was designed by the profile of pressure vs time obtained by the mach number of the flume shape. Some analyses of the theoretical solution were compared with the results of the ground static test.

The objective of this experiment is to observe the elastic and inelastic behaviors of high-rise reinforced concrete frame with infilled masonry. To do this a building frame designed according to Korean seismic code and detailed in the Korean conventional manner was selected. An 1:12 scale plane masonry-infilled frame model was manufactured according to similitude law. Push-over test were performed under the roof displacement control. To simulate the earthquake effect, the lateral force distribution was maintained to be an inversed triangular by using whiffle tree. From the tests, story displacements, lateral story forces, local plastic rotations and the relations between inter-story drift versus story shear are obtained. Based on the test results, conclusions on the characteristics of the elastic and inelastic behaviors of a high-rise reinforced concrete frame with infilled masonry are drawn.

Computer-based methods have often been used in the structural analysis. But, regardless of the progress in the technique of structural analysis, there are inevitable limitations in consideration of the material and eometric nonlinearity and prediction of failure loads. Model analysis of concrete structure can supplement this kind of limitations to reasonably predict behavior of the structure. Similitude requirement in the reinforced concrete structure is often hard to be secured because of peculiar uncertainty of concrete. In this study, small scale model of subway box structure was constructed using strength model and results of model of subway box structure was constructed using strength model and results of model test and computer-based analysis were compared.

The objective of this study is to provide the information on the techniques of manufacturing and experiment in small scale modeling of precast concrete(P.C.)large panel structures. The adopted scale was 1/5th 4types of experiments were performed : material tests for model concrete and model reinforcement, compressive test of horizontal joint, shear test of vertical joint and cyclic static test of 2-story subassemblage structure. Based on the experimental results, the following conclusions are drawn: (1)Model concrete may have in general larger compressive strength than expected. (2) Model reinforcement can show less ductility if the annealing processes were performed without using vaccuum tube. (3) Failure modes of horizontal and vertical joints were almost same for both prototype and model. But the strength of model appears to be higher than required by similitude law. (4)Hysteretic behavior of 1/5 scale subassemblage model can be made quite similar to prototype's if the ductility of model reinforcement and compressive strength of model concrete could be representative of those of prototype.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the stability of the arched and fan types of artificial reefs, which provide habitats for shellfish and seaweed. According to the Froude similitude, parameters affecting the stability of the artificial reefs were analytically, experimentally studied. First, the design parameters of the artificial reefs in wave and current fields were presented. Then, using dimensionless parameters, such as the surf similarity parameter and water particle speed, the stability of the arched and fan types of artificial reefs was investigated. From the hydraulic experiments, it is shown that the stability heavily depends on the way the artificial reefs are installed. Therefore, the installation of the artificial reefs on the surf zone should be carefully executed.

As many of armored vehicles are seriously exposed to threat of IEDs(Improvised Explosive Devices) in the Afghanistan war and the Iraq war. V-shaped military vehicles are deeply studied in order to protect crews and mounted soldiers against land mines. Generally the experiment on full-scaled V-shaped structure needs excessively high cost, which becomes a huge barrier to study. In this paper, we explore the possibility to make a half-scaled model of the V-shaped structure by using the geometric similarity scaling. We demonstrate the geometric similarity scaling between the original model and the half-scaled model is established on the momentum and deflections of structure via computer simulations and experiments. At this stage, we conduct only numerical analysis of predicting vibration of V-shaped structure because measuring vibration of structure is difficult in the mass-explosion experiment, which is remained as future work.

The study is to develop a foundation design for a railway vehicle simulator using a scaled model. Although a scaled simulator is limited to manipulate the dynamics of a full-size railway vehicle, it has been known to have an advantage, since a scaled model could provide the fundamental dynamic behavior within a limited space of a laboratory facility and with a low operation cost while an experiment is conducted. This study is to propose a design strategy for a simulator so that a small scaled roller rig could be fabricated in a laboratory based on the design philosophy. The data obtained from the scale model is also experimentally investigated in conjunction with appropriate non-dimensional analysis so that the output results should be interpreted to the railway vehicle.

In this paper stability about lateral soil movement of bridge abutment constructed on the soft ground, reinforced with the sand compaction pile (SCP) and the preconsolidaton methods, was evaluated by using the centrifuge testing facility which stress conditions in field could be reconstructed in the laboratory. The layouts of model such as ground condition, sand compaction piles and abutment was determined on the basis of similitude law with the reduced scale of 1/200. Construction sequences of installing SCP, preparing reclaimed ground, preconsolidating ground and building the piled bridge abutment were reconstructed during centrifuge modelling and measurements of movement were followed in each sequence. From analyzing the results of measuring movements of the model abutment and the ground, measured lateral movement of model abutment was found to be within the allowable value so that stability of abutment against lateral sliding was secured.
