The F3D(Free-Form Formwork 3D Printer) technology that manufactures EPS(Expanded Polystyrene) formworks for irregular-shaped concrete structures by 3D printers was developed to reduce the cost and time. Because of weak strength and low elastic modulus of the EPS, structural performance including lateral pressure by fresh concrete of the formwork that consisted of EPS should be investigated. In order to calculate lateral pressures acting on formwork, several variables including sizes, shapes of formwork, tangential force(fricition) between fresh concrete and formwork, and material properties of fresh concrete should be considered. However, current regulations have not considered the properties of concrete, only focused on vertical formwork. Galleo introduced 3-dimensional finite element analysis models to calculate lateral pressure on formwork. Thus, proposed finite element analysis model based on previous studies were verified for vertical formwork and irregular-shaped formwork. The test results were compared with those by FEM analysis. As a result, the test agrees well with the analysis.

Although most of the automobile bodies are made of steel, the application of aluminum alloy sheet with high strength is under consideration for the development of environmentally friendly lightweight body for fuel economy improvement and carbon dioxide emission reduction. In the case of some inner plates, application of magnesium alloy sheet is examined. TRB plate has been studied mainly for weight reduction and rigidity reinforcement of steel plate parts. Recently, research on aluminum TRB rolled plate for light and environment friendly automobile application has been started, It is expected that the development of eco - friendly TRB rolling material made of light alloy will increase as the importance of light weight body for future energy efficiency increases. Therefore, in this study, we tried to obtain the technology to improve the quality of the product by pre - verifying the cooling performance of the hot forming process through the heat flow analysis and evaluating the cooling performance through the temperature distribution analysis. As a result, it was found that the temperature distribution through the flow velocity problem and the flow of the cooling channel can influence the quality of the final product through different heat distribution and cooling time depending on the shape of the mold and the product.

고준위폐기물 처분용기를 처분장에서 처분 시 사고로 운송차량에서 추락낙하 하여 지면과 충돌하는 경우 처분용기에 가 해지는 충격력에 의해 처분용기에 응력이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 고준위폐기물 처분용기의 구조안전성 설계과정의 일환으 로 이와 같은 충격력에 의하여 여러 가지 처분용기 모델에 발생하는 응력에 대한 비교연구를 수행하였다. 연구의 주된 내용 은 이와 같은 비교연구를 통하여 구조적으로 건전한 처분용기의 설계에 관한 것이다. 처분장에서 운반차량으로 처분용기 운 반 중 사고로 추락낙하 하여 지면과의 충돌 시에 처분용기에 가해지는 충격력은 기구동역학해석 상용 컴퓨터코드인 RecurDyn으로 구하였다. 이렇게 구한 충격력에 의하여 여러 가지 처분용기 모델에 발생하는 응력 및 변형은 유한요소해석 상용 컴퓨터코드인 NISA를 이용하여 구하였다. 이 응력과 변형 값들의 비교 검토를 통하여 구조적으로 건전한 처분용기에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구결과 처분용기 내부 고준위폐기물 다발을 감싸는 외곽 벽의 두께가 두꺼워 질수록 또는 처분 용기의 직경이 커질수록 처분용기에 발생하는 응력이 커지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 처분용기에 가해지는 충격력도 처 분용기의 직경이 커짐에 따라 증가하였다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 단위 충격력 당 발생하는 변형의 크기는 직경이 증가함에 따 라 감소하였다. 따라서 결론적으로 직경이 증가할수록 처분용기는 구조적으로 건전함을 알 수 있었다.

At modern mechanical and automotive industry, the material with light weight proceeds in order to thr environmental issue and high performance. Machine part is fastened with numbers of bolts and nuts. Generally, the metal part at mechanical structure is fastened with bolt and nut through puncturing. But it is difficult to puncture at CFRP with the property of fiber structure like the general metal. In this study, the fracture behavior is investigated by the hole and crack at the plate of the unidirectional CFRP due to ply angle. The thickness of plate is 2 mm. Two laminates with the varied ply angles are layered and eight plies are made. The hole is placed at the center of plate and the cracks with the length of 2 mm are generated on both left and right sides from the hole. The finite element program of ANSYS is carried out in order to analyze the CFRP with fiber layer. As analysis, the maximum reaction force and equivalent stress are investigated due the angle of ply. The reaction force in case of the stacking angle of 90° is shown to be greatest among all specimens.

OBJECTIVES : The objective of this research is to determine the integrity of pavement structures for areas where voids exist. Furthermore, we conducted the study of voided-area analysis and remaining life prediction for pavement structures using finite element method. METHODS : To determine the remaining life of the existing voided areas under asphalt concrete pavements, field and falling weight deflectometer (FWD) tests were conducted. Comparison methods were used to have better accuracy in the finite element method (FEM) analysis compared to the measured surface displacements due to the loaded trucks. In addition, the modeled FEM used in this study was compared with well-known software programs. RESULTS : The results show that a good agreement on the analyzed and measured displacements can be obtained through comparisons of the surface displacement due to loaded trucks. Furthermore, the modeled FEM program was compared with the available pavement-structure software programs, resulting in the same values of tensile strains in terms of the thickness of asphalt concrete layers. CONCLUSIONS: The study, which is related to voided-area analysis and remaining life prediction using FEM for pavement structures, was successfully conducted based on the comparison between our methods and the sinkhole grade used in Japan.

PURPOSES : Nowadays, cavity phenomena occur increasingly in pavement layers of downtown areas. This leads to an increment in the number of potholes, sinkholes, and other failure on the road. A loss of earth and sand from the pavement plays a key role in the occurrence of cavities, and, hence, a structural-performance evaluation of the pavement is essential. METHODS: The structural performance was evaluated via finite-element analysis using KPRP and KICTPAVE. KPRP was developed in order to formulate a Korean pavement design guide, which is based on a mechanical-empirical pavement design guide (M-EPDG). RESULTS: Installation of the anti-freezing layer yielded a fatigue crack, permanent deformation, and international roughness index (IRI) of 13%, 0.7 cm, and 3.0 m/km, respectively, as determined from the performance analysis conducted via KPRP. These values satisfy the design standards (fatigue crack: 20%, permanent deformation: 1.3 cm, IRI: 3.5 m/km). The results of FEM, using KICTPAVE, are shown in Figures 8~12 and Tables 3~5. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the performance analysis (conducted via KPRP) satisfy the design standards, even if the thickness of the anti-freezing layer is not considered. The corresponding values (i.e., 13%, 0.7 cm, and 3.0 m/km) are obtained for all conditions under which this layer is applied. Furthermore, the stress and strain on the interlayer between the sub-grade and the anti-freezing layer decrease gradually with increasing thickness of the anti-freezing layer. In contrast, the strain on the interlayer between the sub-base and the anti-freezing layer increases gradually with this increase in thickness.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the structural stability of pavement due to water infiltration at the road with infiltration trench as using the FEM(finite element analysis). Five cases for FEM is divided considering the amount of rainfall and rain duration time. The results of FEM show that the more rainfall in a short period time is faster the change of moisture content. Also, it is the proportional relationship between and changing area of moisture content of more than 40% due to rainfall. Case 3 and 4 are necessary to check the installation of infiltration trench because of moisture content of more than 40%, recovery time of initial moisture content, and changing area of more than 40%. Case 1,2, and 5 have no a significant effect on road pavement structure due to lower moisture content and shorter duration time of higher moisture content.

In this study, porous titanium samples were manufactured by space holder methods using two kinds of urea and sodium chloride space holders. Three-dimensional pore structures were obtained by a computed-tomography (CT) tech- nique and utilized for finite element analysis in order to investigate the mechanical properties. The CT-based finite ele- ment analyses were in better agreement with the experimental results than unit cell model-based analyses. Both the experimental and CT-based results showed the same tendency that the elastic modulus decreased with increasing the porosities. The total porosity of the bulk body plays a key role in determining the elastic modulus of porous materials.

부재 교차 결합부 조건에 따른 초기강성은 고정 조건인 경우와 비교하여 반고정 조건인 경우 33% 작게 나타났으나 부재 교차 결합부 특성에 의하여 재하지점과 3m 떨어진 지점에서는 9% 크게 나타났다. 즉, 고정 조건인 경우 구조물 전체로 하중이 분산되어 재하지점과 떨어진 지점에서는 상대적으로 반고정 조건 구조물의 강성이 높게 나타났다. 기초 조건에 따른 초기 강성은 강관 삽입 기초의 경우에는 고정기초 조건과 비교하여 31% 크게 나타났으며, 휨강성은 20% 높게 나타났다. 인터페이스 요소(beam interface element, BIE) 및 지반요소(3-D solid element)를 사용하여 재하시험 결과를 기반으로 각종 계수를 산정하고 시험조건과 동일하게 수치모델링하여 유한요소해석을 수행한 결과 실험결과와 유사한 구조거동을 나타냈다. 그러나 극한하중 조건에서는 비선형 특성의 발현 등에 의하여 다소 상이한 결과 값을 보였다. 이상의 결과로부터 플라스틱 필름 온실의 설계 및 구조성능 평가에서 절점 및 지점 조건에 대한 임의 또는 과다한 이상화는 구조물의 성능 평가에 적지 않은 영향을 줄 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 한편 플라스틱 필름 온실은 세장한 부재로 구성된 유연한 철골 구조물이므로 구조성능 산정에 있어서 좌굴과 함께 대변형 및 지반의 비선형 특성 등을 충분히 고려해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The size of hydrogen molecule is not so small as to invade into the lattice of material, and therefore, hydrogen invades into the material as atom. Hydrogen movement is done by diffusion or dislocation movement in the near crack tip or plastic deformation. Hydrogen appeared to have many effects on the mechanical properties of the Cr-Mo steel alloys. The materials for this study are 1.25Cr-0.5Mo and 2.25Cr-1Mo steels used at high temperature and pressure. The hydrogen amount obtained by theoretical calculation was almost same with the result solved by finite element analysis. The distribution of hydrogen concentration and average concentration was calculated for a flat specimen. Also, finite element analysis was employed to simulate the redistribution of hydrogen due to stress gradient. The calculation of hydrogen concentration diffused into the material by finite element method will provide the basis for the prediction of delayed fracture of notched specimen. The distribution of hydrogen concentration invaded into the smooth and notched specimen was obtained by finite element analysis. The hydrogen amount is much in smooth specimen and tends to concentrate in the vicinity of surface. Hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of notched specimen after hydrogen charging is more remarkable than that of smooth specimen.

Manufacturing bulk nanostructured materials with least grain growth from initial powders is challenging because of the bottle neck of bottom-up methods using the conventional powder metallurgy of compaction and sintering. In this study, bottom-up type powder metallurgy processing and top-down type SPD (Severe Plastic Deformation) approaches were combined in order to achieve both real density and grain refinement of metallic powders. ECAP (Equal Channel Angular Pressing), one of the most promising processes in SPD, was used for the powder consolidation method. For understanding the ECAP process, investigating the powder density as well as internal stress, strain distribution is crucial. We investigated the consolidation and plastic deformation of the metallic powders during ECAP using the finite element simulations. Almost independent behavior of powder densification in the entry channel and shear deformation in the main deformation zone was found by the finite element method. Effects of processing parameters on densification and density distributions were investigated.
