In order to respond to environmental pollution, developed countries, including Korea, have begun to conduct research to utilize hydrogen energy. For mass transfer of hydrogen energy, storage as liquid hydrogen is advantageous, and in this case, the volume can be reduced to 1/800. As such, the transportation technology of liquefied hydrogen for ships is expected to be needed in the near future, but there is no commercialized method yet. This study is a study on the technology to test the performance of the components constituting the membrane type storage container in a cryogenic environment as a preparation for the above. It is a study to find a way to respond by analyzing in advance the problems that may occur during the shear test of adhesives. Through this study, the limitations of ISO4587 were analyzed, and in order to cope with this, the specimen was supplemented so that fracture occurred in the adhesive, not the adhesive gripper, by using stainless steel, a low-temperature steel, to reinforce the thickness. Based on this, shear evaluation was performed under conditions lowered to minus 243℃, and it was confirmed that the breaking strength was higher at cryogenic temperatures.

Conversion to modern hydrogen energy is required, and research on liquefied hydrogen cargo containment systems is needed for large-capacity transport and storage. In this study, changes in the mechanical properties of the adhesive required for storage and transport in liquid hydrogen were confirmed. The lap shear test was performed by realizing cryogenic conditions in a small chamber using liquid nitrogen and liquid helium. There was an increase of 11.0% in the -180℃ condition compared to room temperature, and an increase of 1.8% in the -230℃ condition compared to the -180℃ condition was confirmed. In the case of shear strain, it is known that it decreases as the temperature goes down. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the value at room temperature and the value at -180℃ reduced the shear strain by 5.0%, and -230˚ compared to the -180℃ condition. An increase of 1.5% was confirmed in the C condition. In the case of the specimen tested at -230℃, the deformation in the gripper part was larger than in other tests, and it is judged that the maximum shear strength and shear strain were affected. In addition, in this study, there is a limitation in the experiment at -230°C rather than 253°C, which is the boiling point of hydrogen

The effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) coating in the presence of polyethyleneimine (PEI) of different molecular weights (MW) on the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of carbon fiber/acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) and carbon fiber/epoxy composites was investigated. The IFSS between the carbon fiber and the polymer was evaluated by means of single fiber microbonding test. The results indicated that uses of the carbon fibers uncoated and coated with pristine, low MW PEI-treated, and high MW PEI-treated MWCNT significantly influenced the IFSS of both thermoplastic and thermosetting carbon fiber composites as well as the carbon fiber surface topography. The incorporation of low MW (about 1300) PEI into the carboxylated MWCNT was more effective not only to uniformly coat the carbon fiber with the MWCNT but also to improve the interfacial bonding strength between the carbon fiber and the polymer than that of high MW (about 25,000) PEI. In addition, carbon fiber/epoxy composite exhibited the IFSS much higher than carbon fiber/ABS composite due to the chemical interactions between the epoxy resin and amine groups existing in the PEI-treated MWCNT.

Concrete masonry prisms are strengthened with steel fiber-reinforced mortar (SFRM) overlay and tested for compressive and diagonal tension strength. Masonry prisms are produced in poor condition considering standard workmanship for masonry buildings in Korea. Amorphous steel fibers are adopted for SFRM, and appropriate mixing ratios of SFRM are derived considering constructability and strength. Masonry prisms are strengthened with different fiber volume ratios, while numerous strengthened faces and additional reinforcing meshes are produced for compression and diagonal tension tests. Compression and diagonal tension strength are increased by up to 122% and 856%, respectively, and the enhancement effect for diagonal tension strength was superior compared to compression strength. Finally, the test results and strength prediction equations based on existing literature and regression analysis are compared.

This paper discusses the influence of transverse reinforcement spacing and support width of concrete wide beam on shear performance. In order to evaluate the shear performance, a total of thirteen specimens were constructed and tested. The transverse reinforcement spacing, the number of legs and support width were considered as variables. From the test results, the shear strength equation of concrete wide beam is proposed for prediction of shear strength of concrete wide beam to consider the transverse reinforcement spacing and support width. It is shown that the proposed equation is able to predict shear strength reasonably well for concrete wide beam.

In this paper, the experimental study and finite elements analysis were conducted on homogeneous and dissimilar metals single lap-shear bonded joints to investigate the factor that affect the joint failure load. It was found that factors which have the significant effects on the failure load of the joint was stiffness of the adherends. And from experimental results, it can be confirmed that the failure load increases linearly with overlap length increases. And the failure load of dissimilar metal joints is approximately 1KN(10 ～17%) larger than homogeneous metal joints. In order to confirm this phenomenon, the stress distribution and strain distribution of the specimens were analyzed through the finite element analysis. The difference between homogeneous metals joints and dissimilar metals joints is that stress and strain in adhesive are concentrated at the end of the overlap zone close to aluminium which has lower rigidity than aluminium in case of dissimilar metals joints. From high rigidity of steel, the stress concentration in bonds are decreased and it cause increase of the failure strength at dissimilar metal joints.

최근 국내에서는 고층 벽식 아파트 건설 시, 하부 주차공간과 공용공간 확보를 위하여 RC 전이슬래브 시스템을 사용하는 경우가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 두께가 얇은 RC 무량판 슬래브를 위해 개발된 설계방법 및 구조성능평가 방법을 두께가 매우 두꺼운 전이슬래브 구조설계에 그대로 사용하고 있다는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 합리적인 전이슬래브의 구조설계를 위해서는 RC 전이슬래브 시스템의 2면 전단거동 양상에 대한 명확한 분석이 필요하다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 전이슬래브의 두께, 콘크리트 강도, 전단경간비, 철근비 등 다양한 설계변수에 따라 비선형 FEM을 이용하여 전이슬래브의 2면 전단거동을 분석 하였다. 또한 비선형 FEM 해석결과와 기존의 2면 전단강도 평가식으로 예측한 전단강도를 비교분석하여 기존 평가식의 전이슬래브 2면 전단강도 평가 유효성을 검토하였다.

Tensile load tests were conducted on High-Shear Ring Anchors (HRAs) after shear load had been applied to the HRAs, which had been developed to reduce the number of the anchors. Test variables include the embedment length of the rod and the width of the specimens and a total of 12 specimens were tested. Test results show that the HRAs pulled out due to bond failure or steel failure occurred in case that the HRAs were installed to the members with 300mm or greater width and the embedment length of 160mm (the actual embedment of rod is 140mm) or deeper. Except 4 HRAs showing steel failure of rod, the minimum and average of test-to-prediction by ACI 318-14 ratios are 1.18 and 1.79, respectively. The tensile strength of HRAs, after shear load was applied to the HRAs, can be safely evaluated by the minimum among the concrete breakout strength and bond strength with the actual embedment length of the rod.

The bond property is mightily important in asphalt construction site as overlay, post-cutting overlay and new establishment of asphalt pavement. If the bonding between the lower and upper pavements isn't approriately applied, the slipping phenomenon can happen due to the tensile stress and shear stress. It can resultantly take the forms of the rutting, failure and other damages. Moreover, the greater damage phenomenon from the intense reflection cracking can be generated when the appropriate methods regarding the cracks or failures on the lower pavement aren't conducted and the bonding with its pavements isn't properly applied. In this regard, the researched content on the existing research is shown below. The types of asphalt emulsion applied to the pavement construction site are classified as Tack-Coat and Prime-Coat in South Korea. The application purpose of Tack-Coat is to bond the pavements comprised of the rigid material. And the application objective of Prime-Coat is to attach the layers consisting the disturbed materials. The best performance related to the optimum application rates depends on the type or property of the emulsified asphalt materials. To solve these phenomenons, the various researches have been globally done. The test methods to obtain the optimum application rates of the asphalt emulsion vary in different organizations or countries. The objective of this research is to develop the tester for Tack-Coat bonding property in accordance with the standards and circumstances of the pavement construction in South Korea. In the nation, the application rate of Tack-Coat is presented as 0.3 l/m2 ~ 0.6 l/m2 in the construction specification and pavement design guideline published in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT), but there aren't the specific suggestions. And, it depends on the superintendents or the ordering bodies in the construction sites. In that regard, the objectives of this paper are listed below. First, Suggestion of the test methods regarding the Interlayer Shear Strength in accordance with the domestic construction conditions and standards. Second, Development of the tester for conducting various tests using a tester. Last, Development of the predictive model for the optimum application rates of the emulsified asphalt.

This study investigates the flexural shear strength of ultra high performance concrete I-girder. The effect of aspect ratio on the flexural - shear strength of UHPC was analyzed using finite element analysis. The UHPC I-type girder was modeled using 3D shell elements and analyzed using geometric and material nonlinear analysis. The boundary condition is simple support condition and a displacement load is applied to the center of the upper flange. The results shows that shear strength decreased as the aspect ratio increased and the bending-shear failure of UHPC I-girder does not occur even at larger moment than ordinary concrete due to the cross-linking action of steel fiber.

Prestress is a reinforcement method to control crack due to moment on concrete girders with low tensile strength. In the existing literature, it is mentioned that prestress for ordinary concrete affects not only crack control but also shear strength enhancement. As the construction material improves, UHPC(Ultra-HIgh Performance Concrete) with excellent strength and ductility has been developed by combining ultra-high strength concrete and steel fiber. However, study on the effect of prestress on the shear strength of UHPC with different material properties from ordinary concrete is lacking. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of prestress on the shear behavior of UHPC I-girder is studied by finite element analysis. As a result of the analysis, it has been confirmed that the prestress increases crack strength and shear strength of UHPC.

Coupling beams serve as primary source of energy dissipation in coupled shear wall systems during large earthquakes. However, the overestimation of the shear strength of diagonally reinforced coupling beams may be adverse effect on the seismic performance of coupled shear wall systems. In order to force coupling beams to properly work during earthquakes, coupling beams should be designed with accurate shear strength equations. The objective of this study is to propose the accurate shear strength equation for slender diagonally reinforced coupling beams. For this purpose, experimental tests were conducted using three diagonally reinforced coupling specimens with different amount of transverse reinforcement under reversed cyclic loads to evaluate the hysteretic behavior of the specimens. The test results show that transverse reinforcement of slender diagonally reinforced coupling beam affects the maximum strength and drift ratio.

In this work, we studied the effects of electrochemical oxidation treatments of carbon fibers (CFs) on interfacial adhesion between CF and epoxy resin with various current densities. The surface morphologies and properties of the CFs before and after electrochemical-oxidation-treatment were characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and single-fiber contact angle. The mechanical interfacial shear strength of the CFs/epoxy matrix composites was investigated by using a micro-bond method. From the results, electrochemical oxidation treatment introduced oxygen functional groups and increased roughness on the fiber surface. The mechanical interfacial adhesion strength also showed higher values than that of an untreated CF-reinforced composite.
