Abstract:
The mechanical behavior of fractures in geological media is important to geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering. Considerable investigations have been conducted on, firstly, the characterization of the fracture topography and secondly, on the assessment of the influence of fracture topography on the mechanical behavior, particularly the dilatancy of the discontinuity. The studies of the mechanical behavior of fracture surfaces have invariably been concerned with the examination of the mechanics of the contact surfaces, to the virtual exclusion of the progress of failure zones into regio

Abstract:
The thesis describes the development of a new continuum damage mechanics (hereafter, CDM) model for the deformation and failure of brittle matrix composites reinforced with continuous fibres. The CDM model is valid over sizes scales large compared to the spacing of the fibres and the dimensions of the damage. The composite is allowed to sustain damage in the form of matrix micro-cracking, shear delamination, tensile delamination and fibre failure. The constitutive equations are developed by decomposing the composite compliance into terms attributable to the fibre and matrix, and modelling the

Dynamic tensile characterization of geo-materials is critical to the modeling and design of protective structures that are often made of concrete.

The validity of the data from the spall technique is highly debated because the necessary boundary conditions for the experiment are not satisfied. By using a technique called pulse shaping, a new “controlled” spall technique was developed to satisfy all boundary conditions so that the analyzed d

博士<br>國立臺灣科技大學<br>營建工程系<br>103<br>The early development of Taiwan transportation infrastructure was mostly located on the side of mountain region forming a circumferential turnpike and railway network. The rapid densification of this network continues. At present, National highway design considers environmental and economical impacts. To reduce damage to sensitive ecosystems brought on by construction, bridges and tunnels are considered to be the environmentally sustainable options. Previously, a lot of emphasis has been given to safety and economy of excavation of rock mass without particula

碩士<br>國防大學理工學院<br>軍事工程碩士班<br>102<br>Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar was initially applied to metallic materials. Recently, this testing method was introduced to the rock and brittle materials, such as ceramics and concrete due to its simple structure and convenience for operation. Lots of studies focused on the relationship between strength and strain rate of materials, but less studies investigated the deformation of the materials. The material strain obtained from traditional SHPB test was calculated by relative shifts between planes of elastic rod and material, and brittle materials were easil

The brittle materials were each kind of different intensity concrete, cement mortar, figuline brick and brick of common structural. The experiment was compared with different characteristics of brittle materials that were dry and wet two conditions, beside the concrete. Concrete and brick were principal materials of the building nowadays. The purposes of study were analyzed and compared the characteristics that the experimental m

Abstract:
Pt-aluminide (PtAl) coatings form an integral part of thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems that are applied on Ni-based superalloy components operating in the hot sections of gas turbine engines. These coatings serve as a bond coat between the superalloy substrate and the ceramic yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ) coating in the TBC system and provide oxidation resistance to the superalloy component during service at high temperatures. The PtAl coatings are formed by the diffusion aluminizing process and form an integral part of the superalloy substrate. The microstructure of the PtAl coatings

This study was focusing on the investigation of macroscopical residual mechanical behavior and microscopical fracture evolution utilizing acousto-optical nondestructive technique. The acoustical nondestructive technique is also divided by active and inactive means which is like supersonic and acoustic emission method, respectively
