Because significant difference between normal concrete and fiber reinforced ultra-high strength concrete under tension and compression, bond behavior also have significant difference. Based on the finite element analysis of bond test specimens, crack initiation and propagation process were investigated. Analysis results have been validated with test results and crack initiation stress was investigated.

This study proposes a FE model updating strategy based on data fusion of acceleration and angular velocity. The use of acceleration and angular velocity gives richer information than the sole use of acceleration, allowing the enhanced performance particularly in determining the boundary conditions. A numerical simulation is presented to demonstrate the proposed FE model updating approach using the data fusion.

The finite element (FE) model updating is a commonly used approach in civil engineering, enabling damage detection, design verification, and load capacity identification. In the FE model updating, acceleration responses are generally employed to determine modal properties of a structure, which are subsequently used to update the initial FE model. While the acceleration-based model updating has been successful in finding better approximations of the physical systems including material and sectional properties, the boundary conditions have been considered yet to be difficult to accurately estimate as the acceleration responses only correspond to translational degree-of-freedoms (DOF). Recent advancement in the sensor technology has enabled low-cost, high-precision gyroscopes that can be adopted in the FE model updating to provide angular information of a structure. This study proposes a FE model updating strategy based on data fusion of acceleration and angular velocity. The usage of both acceleration and angular velocity gives richer information than the sole use of acceleration, allowing the enhanced performance particularly in determining the boundary conditions. A numerical simulation on a simply supported beam is presented to demonstrate the proposed FE model updating approach.

Sewage Pipe Renewal (SPR) method rehabilitate pipeline by forming a PVC profile inside the pipe by using a winding machine without excavating the soil above the pipe which lowers the cost of the rehabilitation. This study will investigate the effects of varying the pipe’s diameter to its wall thickness ratio. The dimensions for the diameter and minimum wall thickness of the non-reinforced concrete pipe will be based from ASTM C14. The finite element analysis software, ABAQUS, will be used to model and perform the analysis for the composite pipes. To account for the soil-pipe interaction, soil springs will be used as the bedding support to hold the pipe in place. Additionally, three soil types will be used to compare the behavior of the pipe with different diameter to thickness ratios. The results from the finite element analysis will be shown in tables and plotted into graphs and a concluding remarks will be provided.

This study focuses on the effects of load height on the inelastic lateral buckling of doubly stepped I-beams. The effects of having compact and non-compact flanges are also covered by this study. Two sections are analyzed: one having compact flanges and web while the other section has a compact web and non-compact flanges. The loadings are limited to those having an inflection point of zero. Also, the three main locations for the loads analyzed would be at the top of the flange, at the shear and at the bottom flange. The nonlinear analysis is done using the finite element program, ABAQUS. Also, to take into consideration the effect of inelastic buckling, residual stresses and geometric imperfections are applied to the models made. The results of the analysis would then determine if the location of the loads has significant effects on the buckling strength of the stepped beams. Also, the results are compared to the results of previous studies involving the effects of load-height on prismatic beams. The final results are tabulated and conclusions and new design methods are provided.

This study analyzes the buckling safety in the area of circumferentially edge-stiffened door openings without any additional longitudinal stiffeners of offshore tubular steel towers. The tubular steel tower is subjected to six (6) different load situations which are deemed to be normal and abnormal operating cases for the ultimate limit state. Analytical method using parametric equations based on Eurocode 3 - Design of Steel Structures and numerical method of finite element are used to analyze the critical meridional buckling stress. ABAQUS, a finite element program, is used for the numerical method analysis. Buckling safety analysis in the localized area near the opening is studied, and points of interest are defined for comparison between the two aforementioned analyses. Findings are tabulated and shown in illustrative charts, and conclusions are made.

철도차량에 의한 진동은 지반을 통해 주변 지역에 영향을 주고 피로균열등 구조적 손상을 주고 있다. 본 논문은 새롭게 개발된 탄성 스페리컬 받침을 기존 강재스페리컬 받침과의 비교를 통한 진동저감성능에 대해 평가하였다. 탄성스페리컬 받침은 반구형 곡률과 크기를 변경함으로써 현장 여건에 맞는 강성을 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 탄성 스페리컬 받침은 반구형 고무 및 보강판의 적층 받침으로써 성능특성을 확인하기 위해 설계와 해석결과를 비교하고 특성시험을 실시하였다. 또한 진동저감성능 확인을 위해 열차의 실대차 축소모형 시험을실시하였다. 해석적 검증비교를 통한 특성시험에서는 설계하중 500kN 시험체의 압축 및 회전 시험결과 압축보다 회전에 의한 강성 증가가적은 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 압축 및 회전 시험 후 시험체에 외관변형 및 영구적인 손상, 찢어짐 등은 발견되지 않았다. 축소 스케일 진동측정 시험에서는 실대차 모형을 1/50축소하여 교량의 진동을 측정하였다. 그 결과 강재 스페리컬 받침에 비해 탄성 스페리컬 받침의 진동저감능력이 탁월한 것으로 판단되며, 거리별 진동감쇠 성능도 높은 것으로 확인되어 탄성스페리컬 받침의 철도교 적용 시 진동저감효과가우수할 것으로 판단된다. 향 후 실제 철도교량에서의 현장실험을 통해 성능을 검증할 계획이다.
