해상으로 운송되는 위험유해물질 (HNS, Hazardous and Noxious Substance)은 6,000여종 이상으로 많은 종류를 포함하고 있으므로, 유출시 대응전략 수립을 위한 HNS 거동 및 위험반경 예측을 결정론적으로 제시하기 어렵다. HNS 거동예측에서는 예측의 신속성과 효율성을 고려하여 차이가 미미한 모든 종류의 HNS 특성을 모두 고려하는 대신에 거동에 크게 영향을 미칠 수 있는 특성들에 초점을 맞쳐 대표적인 거동예측 모델을 개발하여 적용할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 HNS를 기체상, 액체상, 고체상 등 크게 3분류로 구분하고, 각각의 분류별 거동특성 모델링을 연구하였다. 물질 특성별 거동특성은 증기압, 용해도, 밀도 등을 고려하였으며, 각각의 변수에 따른 증발, 혼홥, 침강 등의 거동을 모델링하였다. 물질의 거동특성 모델링은 대기 해양 확산모델의 계산에서 대기중 확산, 수중 확산, 해저면 침적 등을 결정하는 과정으로 활용된다.

The mechanical properties of sintered low alloy steels were analysed using Finite Element Methods (FEM), in which the powder is modelled as an elastic–plastic continuum material. A quantitative analysis of microstructure was correlated with tensile and fatigue behavior to understand the influence of pore size, shape, and distribution on mechanical behavior. Tensile strength, Young’s modulus, strain-to-failure, and fatigue strength all increased with a decrease in porosity. The decrease in Young’s modulus with increasing porosity was predicted by analytical modeling. Two-dimensional microstructure-based finite element modeling showed that the enhanced tensile and fatigue behavior of the denser steels could be attributed to smaller, more homogeneous, and more spherical porosity which resulted in more homogeneous deformation and decreased strain localization in the material. The relationship between relative density of P/M steels and mechanical behavior is also obtained from FEA and compared with the experimenta data. Good agreement between the experimental and FEA results is observed, which demonstrates that FEA can capture the major features of the P/M steels behaviour during loading. The implications of pore size, morphology, and distribution on the mechanical behavior and fracture of P/M steels are discussed. It is therefore demonstrated that FEA can predict the possible mechanism of failure during loading.

This study presents the structural modelling method for the seismic behavior characteristics evaluation of flat stone bridge. To this end, we select the representative flat stone bridge according to the construction and configuration types. Also, this study provides the discrete element method for the reasonable seismic modelling of discontinuum structures.
