교량의 교각 설계시에는 설계기준에 의거하여 차량의 충돌에 대비한 적절한 방호시설 등이 고려되고 있으나, 지하차도의 기둥 설계시에는 차량의 충돌과 관련된 규정이 없다. 또한 지하차도의 기둥은 상대적으로 폭이나 두께가 작아서 차량의 충돌에 의하여 큰 손상이 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 지하차도 기둥에 대한 충돌해석을 통하여 차량의 충돌에 의한 구조물의 손상을 평가하였다. 충돌해석에서는 지하차도 기둥의 물성과 형태 그리고 차량의 속도와 종류 등이 매개변수로 고려되었다. 수치해석 결과 지하차도 기둥이 심하게 손상되는 경우가 있었으며 따라서 지하차도의 기둥 설계시에는 차량 충돌에 대한 적절한 고려가 필요하다.

Generally, the Load of upper structures is transferred to concrete foundations through columns supporting them. So, the anchor connection system is usually adopted in order to connect the columns and the concrete foundations. To apply this system, the column-foundation connections need to be designed with enough stiffness. This study was experimentally conducted to effectively improve the structural detail of circular CFT column-foundation connections, to which axial and lateral load simultaneously apply. For this study, the test specimen with a general anchor and an anchor frame, and the specimens with the high-tension bolt and inner reinforcement were fabricated. In addition, double base plates were adopted to have the enough stiffness of connections. The behavioral characteristics and the failure mode were investigated and compared, and the improvement of structural detail of circular CFT column-foundation connections was suggested.

In this paper we present the result of investigations pertaining to the buckling strength of Zelkova Serrata (Elm-like) tree column with entasis at the Muryangsujeon in Buseoksa-Temple, Korea. Wooden columns with entasis had been used in the construction of ancient architectural buildings in Korea. It was not known why did they design columns with entasis of the buildings. It is just presumed that the reason may be the compensation of optical illusion, aesthetics, and/or structural safety. The question is not answered even today and it may not be possible to answer clearly and easily. In the paper, the buckling analyses are conducted on both of the wooden column with entasis and the prismatic wooden column by the successive approximations technique and the finite element methods, respectively. The results of analyses are compared and discussed.

최근, 모듈러 구조 시스템은 공기를 단축시킬 수 있는 장점으로 인해 건설 현장에 적용되고 있다. 모듈러 구조시스템은 단위 모듈로 구성되며, 모듈과 모듈의 볼트접합을 위해 보-기둥 접합부에 개구부를 가공하게 된다. 일반적으로 모듈러 구조시스템은 기존 철골모멘트골조와 유사한 하중전달체계를 가지는 것으로 가정하여 설계된다. 이와 같은 설계 가정의 타당성을 확보하기 위해, 단위 모듈의 보-기둥 접합부에 대한 회전 성능이 파악되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 개구부의 구조적 영향이 고려된 접합부의 회전성능을 파악하기 위해 유한요소해석을 수행하였다. 해석결과 단위모듈은 충분한 변형능력을 가지고 안정적인 이력거동을 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 단위모듈의 접합부는 부분강접 접합부로 분류되었다. 또한 본 연구에서는 단위모듈의 비선형 골조 해석을 위한 간단한 스프링 모델을 개발하였으며, 단위 모듈의 비선형 이력 거동을 구현하기 위해 Ramberg-Osgood 이력 모델을 제시하였다.

In this study, circular sectional concrete-filled tube(CFT) column-to-foundation connections were numerically investigated in order to improve their structural details. A inner reinforced specimen with high-tension bolts and inner deformed bars was adopted from a previous experimental study to make the numerical model. The validity of the numerical method was verified through comparing the experimental results with the analysis’s ones. In order to optimize design variables about the inner reinforced model, a number of numerical analyses were conducted for various variables. Finally, this study suggested the optimum variables about the reinforced circular sectional CFT column-to-foundation connections.

Since the collapse of historical masonry structures in Europe in the late 1990’s, the interests in understanding the long-term effect of masonry under sustained compressive stresses have increased. That requires combining the significance of time-dependent effects of creep with the effect of damage due to overstress to realize the evolution of cracks and then failure in masonry. Meanwhile, composite analysis of masonry columns was proven effective for realizing ultimate strength capacity of masonry column. In this study, a simplified mechanical model with step-by-step in time analysis was proposed to incorporate the interaction of damage and creep to estimate the maximum stress occurred in masonry. It was examined that the interaction of creep and damage in masonry can accelerate the failure of masonry.

The sea cage in marine aquaculture might be varied such as on the stability and shape in the open sea by environmental factors. To evaluate the stability of net cage structures in the open sea, the physical and numerical modeling techniques were applied and compared with field observations. This study was carried out to analyse the stability and the volume loss which would have an effect on the fish swimming behavior in the octagonal pillar type fish cage under the open sea. As a results, the volume loss ratio of the fish cage as measured using a depth sensor was indicated a value of the 30.3% under the current velocity (1.1m/s). The fish cage should be consisted of a concrete block with a weight over 10 tons, a mooring rope diameter over 28mm PP, and a shackle of 25mm under the current speed of 1m/sec for reasonable stability.

This paper experimentally investigates the seismic performance of RC columns retrofitted by Super Reinforcement with Flexibility (SRF). A total of three specimens with a scale factor of 1/2 were constructed and tested in order to assess the structural behavior of the retrofitted RC columns. One specimen was a non-seismically designed column without any retrofitting method while others were retrofitted with either one or two layers of SRF by using urethane adhesive. The static cyclic testing with a constant axial load was conducted to assess the seismic performance of the retrofitted RC columns. It is concluded that the SRF retrofitting method increases the strength and ductility of the RC columns and can also impact on the failure mode of the columns.

This study describes the development of innovative connections between steel beams and concrete-filled tube columns that utilize a combination of low-carbon steel and super-elastic shape memory alloy components. The intent is to combine the recentering behavior provided by the shape memory alloys to reduce building damage and residual drift after a major earthquake with the excellent energy dissipation of the low-carbon steel. The analysis and design of structures requires that simple yet accurate models for the connection behavior be developed. The development of a simplified 2D spring connection model for cyclic loads from advanced 3D FE monotonic studies is described. The implementation of those models into non-linear frame analyses indicates hat the recentering systems will provide substantial benefits for smaller earthquakes and superior performance to all-welded moment frames for large earthquakes.

The flat plate slab system have many good features, which are design flexibilities, saving of story-height and economy of construction etc. But the study of flat plate slab system for H-steel column have been rare both at home and abroad. Recently high-rise residential and commercial buildings have been constructed in urban areas in Korea. The suggested dowel connection system is more likely to adoptable because it remarkably contribute to save inter story height and also to have many advantages compared with conventional steel works such as H-Steel frame + Deck plate slab system. This study aims at developing design method and program for connection between H-Steel column and flat plate slab system, which contribute to save significantly inter-story height.

Generally, in the previous researches, it is found that a water droplet is respectively in Wenzel and Cassie-Baxter states on hydrophilic/hydrophobic rough surfaces. And Wenzel and Cassie-Baxter equations are used to estimate the apparent contact angle on the surfaces. However, difference between measured apparent contact angle and estimated apparent contact angle with the equations is recently reported and new model to estimate apparent contact angle on rough surfaces is proposed. In this study, wetting state and apparent contact angle on the surfaces with micro-pillars should be investigated to find solution of this argument. Using the high resolution microscope, the wetting state of the D.I.water droplet on the surface with micro-pillars was visualized and apparent contact angle of the D.I.water droplet was measured. On the basis of experimental data, the equations to estimate apparent contact angle were verificated and the general wetting characteristics on the surfaces with micro-pillars are finally classified.
