국내 연속철근 콘크리트포장(이하:CRCP)은 1987년에 개통된 중부 고속도로에 대규모로 사용되었고 당시 국외사례를 참고해서 설계 했으며 단부에 앵커러그를 설치하여 수평 변위를 억제하였다. 2014년 고속도로 CRCP 설계지침은 일부 조건에 국한하여 단부에 팽창 줄눈을 설치할 수 있도록 했고 수평변위를 허용하는 경우 국내 환경 조건에서 발현하는 특성에 대한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 중부 고속도로 CRCP는 린콘크리트 위에 분리층 없이 시공했고 최근 시공된 CRCP도 중부 고속도로 사례를 참고해 분리층을 생략한 시공을 하고 있다. 이러한 환경조건은 분리층을 적용하는 국외 CRCP와는 다른 수평변위 거동을 나타내기 때문에 이에 대한 정량화를 통한 설계개선이 필요하다. 본 연구는 국내 CRCP 시험시공 구간에 계측기를 설치하여 축적한 데이터를 분석하여 거동 특성을 조사하였다. 계측은 국외 사례를 참고해서 단부와 단부에서 이격된 지점에 변위계를 설치해 온도에 따른 수평변위를 측정하는 방법을 사용하였다. 변위계는 측정지점 CRCP를 천공해 고정하고 길어깨에 관입해 설치한 강봉과 연결하여 절대변위를 측정할 수 있도록 하였다. 5년 간 축적된 계측 데이터를 사용하여 발생추세를 조사하였고 이를 국내외의 선행연구 결과와 비교하였다. 계측결과 국내 CRCP 수평변위의 발생량은 국외 계측결과와 비교해 낮은 수준을 나타냈고 단부에 가까울수록 온도와 비례하는 관계를 나타냈으나 단부에서 멀어지는 경우 반비례를 나타내는 경우도 계측되었다. 이는 단부와 멀어질수록 변위가 감소해 측정부 주변에 발생한 균열 수평변위에 영향을 받기 쉬운 상태가 되기 때문으로 추정된다.

본 연구는 철도교 노후화에 따른 열차운행 중 신속 교체 및 재난·재해에 대한 급속 시공을 통하여 공기단축 및 시공성 확보로 국민의 사회적·경제적 피해를 최소화하고자 한다. 철도교 개량 등에서 필 수적인 8철도하로교 시공고도화 및 성능향상9을 위하여 신속 교체와 성능향상이 가능한 강합성 철도하 로교 설계·제작·시공 기술을 개발하고자 한다. 또한, 개발하고자 하는 강합성 하로교의 경우 철도교뿐 만 아니라 도로교에서 적용하고자 하며, 철도교는 상부구조가 단경간 형식으로 이루어지고 있어 철도 교 사용성 검토에 큰 문제가 없으나 도로교의 경우 바닥판 연속화를 고려 중에 있어, 이에 대한 온도 및 부모멘트 등 여러 문제점을 검토하였다. 상로교의 경우 다수의 거더에 의해 바닥판이 지지되므로 PS의 중요성이 부각될 수 없지만, 하로교의 바닥판은 양단 거더에 의한 고정지지이므로 RC구조 적용 이 어려워, 강합성 또는 PSC 공법을 일반적으로 적용한다. 기존 강합성 구조는 비용, 공기 측면에서 지양하고 PSC 구조의 가로보 및 바닥판과 강재 거더를 합성한 하로교를 개발하고자 한다.

Herein, the existing structural design criteria for highway bridge columns with hollow bars were analyzed. Expanding upon previous research focused on the performance analysis of the columns under compressive loads, load– displacement curves were evaluated and crack analysis was performed under cyclic transverse loads. A three-dimensional nonlinear finite-element structural analysis compared the structural performance of existing steel bars, same-reinforced hollow bars, and reduced hollow bars in detail. Results indicated that with regard to elastic or initial crack behavior, the existing steel bars can be replaced by the other bars. Future research should delve into inelastic behavior and strategies to ensure seismic performance.

The propagation speed of a circumstellar pattern revealed in the plane of the sky is often assumed to represent the expansion speed of the wind matter ejected from a post-main-sequence star at the center. We point out that the often-adopted isotropic wind assumption and the binary hypothesis as the underlying origin for the circumstellar pattern in the shape of multilayered shells are, however, mutually incompatible. We revisit the hydrodynamic models for spiral-shell patterns induced by the orbital motion of a hypothesized binary, of which one star is losing mass at a high rate. The distributions of transverse wind velocities as a function of position angle in the plane of the sky are explored along viewing directions. The variation of the transverse wind velocity is as large as half the average wind velocity over the entire three dimensional domain in the simulated models investigated in this work. The directional dependence of the wind velocity is indicative of the overall morphology of the circumstellar material, implying that kinematic information is an important ingredient in modeling the snapshot monitoring (often in the optical and near-infrared) or the spectral imaging observations for molecular line emissions.

As laser welding has low thermal distortion and fast welding speed, the needs in the field is increasing in varous industries. Prediction of distortion and design with that prediction are very important for using welding process in the field. However many types of heat source models for laser welding are suggested, field engineers feels difffucult for using a proper model for a specific case. Thus I, author, suggested a representative model which can cover most of existing models with multi-layered heat source model. This method is very powerful, but there are much time consumption with analysis and comparision among more than 1,000 candidates. To solve these shortcomings, this study focused on to find the simplified model. In order to construct the simplified model, the length of the orthogonal direction to the welding direction was reduced from 300mm to 35mm, which makes time reduction of 75% with sustaining the quality of the original model. That can cover the disadvantage of multi-layered heat source model for laser welding, enhance the prediction of welding distortion after laser welding

In seismic design, hollow section concrete columns offer advantages by reducing the weight and seismic mass compared to concrete section RC bridge columns. However, the flexure-shear behavior and spirals strain of hollow section concrete columns are not well-understood. Octagonal RC bridge columns of a small-scale model were tested under cyclic lateral load with constant axial load. The volumetric ratio of the transverse spiral hoop of all specimens is 0.00206. The test results showed that the structural performance of the hollow specimen, such as the initial crack pattern, initial stiffness, and diagonal crack pattern, was comparable to that of the solid specimen. However, the lateral strength and ultimate displacement of the hollow specimen noticeably decreased after the drift ratio of 3%. The columns showed flexure-shear failure at the final stage. Analytical and experimental investigations are presented in this study to understand a correlation confinement steel ratio with neutral axis and a correlation between the strain of spirals and the shear resistance capacity of steel in hollow and solid section concrete columns. Furthermore, shear strength components (Vc, Vs., Vp) and concrete stress were investigated.

PURPOSES : In this paper, the measurement criteria was determined by assessing the factors influencing the measurement of bending resonance frequency which is not specified in KS F 2437. METHODS : The durability evaluation analysis of concrete beam specimens was performed immediately after freezing and thawing processes. It is primarily aiming at improving the repeatability and reproducibility of measurement results by providing measurement criteria for various measurement factors that can occur during the collection of resonance frequency data. An independent concrete durability test (KS F 2456) was executed with the proposed measurement protocol for evaluation. RESULTS : A measurement protocol was proposed to determine the transverse resonance frequency of concrete beam specimens. CONCLUSIONS : It was concluded that the proposed measurement protocol may be used for the concrete durability test; where the resonance frequency could be stably collected.

This paper aims to experimentally and numerically explore fracture mechanism characteristics of ultra-thin chopped carbon fiber tape-reinforced thermoplastics (UT-CTT) hat-shaped hollow beam under transverse static and impact loadings. Three distinct failure modes were observed in the impact bending tests, whereas only one similar progressive collapse mode was observed in the transverse bending tests. The numerical model was to incorporate some hypothetical inter-layers in UT-CTT and assign them with the failure model as cohesive zone model, which can perform non-linear characteristics with failure criterion for representing delamination failure. The dynamic material parameters for the impact model were theoretically predicted with consideration of strain-rate dependency. It shows that the proposed modeling approach for interacting damage modes can serve as a benchmark for modeling damage coupling in composite materials.

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.

To study the seismic resistance of the shear capacity of the RC beam-column joints of two-story and four-story RC buildings, sample buildings are designed with ordinary moment resisting frame. For the shear capacity of joints, the equations of FEMA 356 and NZ seismic assessment are selected and compared. For comparison, one group of buildings is designed only for gravity loads and the other group is designed for seismic and gravity loads. For 16 cases of the designed buildings, seismic performance point is evaluated through push-over analysis and the capacity of joint shear strength is checked. Not only for the gravity designed buildings but also for seismic designed buildings, the demand of joint shear is exceeding the capacity at exterior joints. However, for interior joint, the demand of joint shear exceeds the capacity only for one case. At exterior joints, the axial load stress ratio is lower than 0.21 for gravity designed buildings and 0.13 for seismic designed buildings.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study was to suggest a quantitative trend of the daily and seasonal cyclic movement of transverse crackwidth based on measurements in CRCP(Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement) within the first year of construction. METHODS : Crack gauges were installed in eight normal cracks, two induced cracks, and two construction joints of newly constructed CRCP. Crack width movements were continuously collected for about a year to investigate the cyclic behavior after construction. The daily and seasonal crack width movements were quantitatively analyzed and compared. RESULTS: Crack width movement in hot weather was relatively less than in cold weather. As a result of frequency analysis of the daily cyclic behavior, it was revealed by measurement that the minimum crack width from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. was caused by expansion of the concrete; and that the maximum width from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. was caused by contraction. Average crack width movements were calculated for every month and showed seasonal cyclic behavior. Maximum crack width was measured from December to January. Average crack width was investigated from March to April. Daily crack width movement in relation to concrete temperature was calculated from -0.00017 to -0.03844 mm/℃ and showed gradual decrease in absolute value with time caused by change in the crack spacing. It was found that the relationships between the monthly average crack width and concrete temperature are from -0.004 to -0.012 mm/℃. CONCLUSIONS : Crack-width movement shows a daily and seasonal cyclic behavior. Crack-width measurement in any time or season will have variance caused by daily and seasonal cyclic movement. Variances and trends were obtained in this study based on measurements for various cracks. The long-term behavior of cracks should be surveyed and compared with these measurements to investigate trends of convergence with time, caused by convergence of crack spacing.

The subject are 37 years old with chronic low back pain participated in this study and has no experience surgery within the last six months due to back pain. 10 set was applied 10 times on the T3-T5 applied the transverse movement with grade Ⅳ to each segment by skilled physical therapist. Transverse movement was applied convex toward the concave side. Pressure pain threshold was reduced from 4/10 to 2/10. Trunk flexion range that is the distance between the middle finger and floor was increase from 7.3cm to 2cm. Cobb’s angle was decreased from degree 18 to 16. This result demonstrated that the Maitland’s transverse movement was benefit to reduce the pain and Cobb’s angle, and to increase the trunk flexion movement.

선체의 횡관성모멘트는 선박의 횡운동 특성을 다루는 경우 제외될 수 없는 요소로서 그 크기의 적정성은 선체 동특성 해석의 결과와 신뢰성에 큰 영향을 미친다. 그러나 선박은 질량분포와 형상이 복잡하므로 이를 직접적인 계산을 통해 값을 구하기에는 과정이 매우 복잡하고 대상 선박의 구체적인 관련 자료를 얻기도 어렵다는 점에서 실용적으로는 선체 질량의 등가적 관성반경을 선체폭의 일정비율로 계산하는 간접적인 방법이 통용되고 있다. 한편, 어느 선체의 자유 횡운동이 나타내는 횡요 주기와 감쇠형태는 관성모멘트에 의해 영향을 받기 마련이고 따라서 이러한 응답의 결과적인 모양으로부터 역으로 해당 선박의 관성모멘트를 구하는 일반식의 도출이 가능할 것으로 유추될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 관찰에 의한 선체의 횡요 주기는 경사각의 진폭 감쇠비에 의해서도 달라지는 관계를 해석하여 횡요 주기와 경사각 진폭 감쇠비 모두를 함수 인자로 포함하는 일반식에 의해 횡관성모멘트 크기가 구해질 수 있음을 나타내었다. 또한 이러한 일반식에 횡요 관찰 선박의 주요 제원을 적용하였을 때 나타나는 특성 그래프들을 분석한 결과 횡요주기 뿐 아니라 진폭감쇠비가 함께 검토될 때 얻어지는 관성모멘트 값이 보다 정확해진다는 것을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 유공형 강판의 횡방향 보강간격에 따른 넓은 보의 전단성능을 실험적으로 평가하기 위하여 횡방향 전단보강 간격과 넓은 보의 유효깊이를 변수로 고려하였다. 시험체는 총 8개로 유공형 강판으로 전단보강한 시험체가 5개, 무보강 시험체가 3개이다. 균열 및 파괴유형, 변형률과 하중-변위 곡선을 분석하였다. 유공형 전단보강재의 전단강도 기여분을 분석하고, 횡방향 전단보강의 최대간격을 제안하였다. 횡방향 전단보강 개수가 2개인 시험체에 비해 3개인 시험체에서 전단강도가 크게 나타났으며 유효깊이가 증가할수록 전단강도가 크게 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the activity of the transverse abdominal muscle resulting from changed posture by measuring the thickness of the transverse abdominal muscle in a supine posture, a slouched sitting posture, and an erect sitting posture. The subjects of the study were 28 patients with cerebral palsy. All their transverse abdominal muscles at the end of inhalation were measured at supine, slouched sitting (S sitting) and erect sitting (E sitting) postures by using ultrasonography, and then their dynamic sitting balance was measured at S sitting and E sitting postures by using BioRescue. For the statistical analysis, the Kruskal-Wallis test and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used to compare the differences among each the postures. The results were as follows. The thickness of the transverse abdominal muscle when comparing the supine posture and the S sitting posture showed no statistically significant difference. But the E sitting posture showed a statistically significant difference as compared with the others. In addition, the dynamic sitting balance in comparing the S sitting and E sitting postures showed a significant difference. In conclusion, the E sitting posture has a more positive effect on postural control and balance than generally taking the S sitting posture, for the sitting posture of a patient with cerebral palsy. It is suggested that patients with cerebral palsy mainly experiencing a sedentary life or being in a wheelchair should be seated in the E sitting posture during their daily life, and it may be necessary to continue to monitor and manage the proper E sitting posture.
