In design of steel column member using TMCP steels, hysteretic behavior characteristics of steel column must be clarified. To predict hysteretic behavior of steel column using TMCP steels, a cyclic plasticity model is necessary which can consider the mechanical characteristics and stress-strain relationship of TMCP steels. In this paper, a cyclic plasticity model of SM490-TMC was formulated based on monotonic and cyclic loading tests. The formulated cyclic plasticity model was applied to 3-dimensional finite element analysis. Hysteretic behavior characteristics of steel circular column and H-section column using SM490-TMC was presented by carrying out numerical analysis. Also, influence of SM490-TMC on hysteretic behavior of steel column was presented by comparing analysis results both SM490 and SM490-TMC steel column.

The in-situ consolidation behavior of drainage system-installed deposits has three dimensional characteristics. Therefore, for an approximate 2-D plane strain consolidation analysis, it is necessary to convert the 3-D spatial flow of actual cases into the laminar flow simulated by the 2-D plane strain model. . In this paper, in order to properly model the effect of three dimensional characteristics, an equivalent and efficient model has been applied in a finite element technique for the analysis of the drainage system-installed soil deposits. The equivalent two dimensional model involves equivalent permeabilities and drainage widths. To validate the equivalent two dimensional model, three dimensional analyses were per formed by using the ABAQUS program and the results of 3-D analyses were compared with those of the 2-D analyses. By using the proposed equivalent model, one may be able to appropriately predict the consolidation behavior of drainage system-installed soft deposits.

This study is performed to understand complex behavior and to investigate the rational analysis methods for seismic design of the curved bridges. To analyze the curved bridges for the seismic loadings, it is used that the finite element analysis program has the 7-dof curved beam and straight beam element. The free vibration characteristics of the curved bridges are compared with the straight bridges that have span length same as the average arc length of inside and outside girder of those. For the same case, the dynamic behavior is compared under seismic loadings. It is found that regular bridges classified by AASHTO are analyzed as if those were straight. To investigate the dynamic behavior of general curved bridges under seismic loading, the seismic loading directions and the subtended angle of curved bridges are varied.

The distinct element method has been effectively applied to the analysis of stability and behavior of jointed rock masses. In this paper the modelling characteristics of different types of distinct element model were investigated. Arch tunnel examples were chosen to compare the calculation results of two computer codes, NURBM and CBLOCK, where the former is based on implicit algorithm, and the other on explicit one. CBLOCK calculations show that joint properties are very important parameters in the stability analysis and that the joint stiffness ratio associated with joint configuration could be used as an indicator, whereas NURBM differ from that. Some other disagreements were also identified.

A numerical model is represented to calculate the wave fields such as the reflected waves, the transmitted waves and the depth-averaged velocities over submerged breakwaters for the normally incident wave trains of nonlinear mono-chromatic wave and solitary wave. The finite amplitude shallow water equations with the effects of bottom friction are solved numerically in time domain using an explicit dissipative Lax-Wendroff finite difference method. The numerical model is verified by comparisons with the other numerical results and the measured data. It is found that the submerged breakwater may be more useful for protecting the energies of monochromatic waves rather than solitary waves. Finally, the armor stability on submerged breakwater is indirectly analyzed using the hydrodynamic characteristics of flow fields.

본 연구에서는 동적 점탄-점소성 구성식에 기초한 다층지반의 1차원 액상화 해석을 수행하였다. 일본 고베 포트아일랜드에서 발생한 1995 Hyogoken Nanbu 지진에 대하여 지반 모델링을 하였으며, 사질토 지반에는 탄소성 모델을, 점성토 지반에는 점탄-점소성 모델 및 탄-점소성 모델을 각각 적용하였다. 본 연구 결과, 모델 지반의 경우 지표 10 m 아래를 전후하여 액상화가 발생하였으며 액상화가 발생한 지반을 통과하는 지진파는 감쇠특성을 나타내고 이 때 전단변형률을 크게 증가시켰다. 또한, 대변형률 영역에서의 점성토의 동적거동 해석에서는 점소성 거동특성이 지배적이므로 점소성 모델의 적용이 중요함을 알 수 있었다. 한편 동적 점탄-점소성 구성모델은 대변형률 영역에서 점성토의 소성변형을 유발하는 대형 지진 발생시 점성토의 증폭 및 감쇠특성 분석에 적용 가능한 모델임을 확인하였다.

The pipe elbows subjected to in-plane bending moments are analyzed with the finite element method. The results from the finite element analysis are compared with ASME code equations that are theoretical closed form solutions. The geometric nonlinear effects due to the ovalization are explained with the magnitude and the types of the stresses and the flexibilities of the elbows with the emphasis on the bend angles and elbow factors.

강재 교각을 갖는 고가교량은 상부구조가 매우 큰 질량을 갖는 거대구조가 되고 규모가 큰 지진운동 하에서 대단히 큰 관성력을 받게 된다. 따라서 탄소성 동적응답 해석에 의해서 강재 교각의 지진거동을 파악하는 것이 필요하다 . 본 연구에서는, 탄소성 동적응답해석을 위한 합리적인 수치해석방법을 제시하고 이를 바탕으로 강재 교각에 대한 내진성 평가를 수행한다. 1995년 고베 지진 시 손상을 받은 강재 교각과 그 이후 재구축된 교각을 모델로 해서 국부좌굴 이전 소성화의 영향만을 고려한 강재 교각의 지진 거동을 파악한다. 입력지진파는 고베 지진시 관측된 Takatori 지진파이고 이를 가속도 진폭 조정하여 사용한다.

In this research, a numerical algorithm is developed for the response analysis of burined pipelines considering longitudinal permanent ground deformation(PGD) due to liquefaction induced lateral spreading. Buried pipelines and surrounding soil are modeled as continuous pipelines using the beam elements and a series of elasto-plastic springs represented for equivalent soil stiffness, respectively. Idealized various PGD patterns based on the observation of PGD are used as a loading configuration and the length of the lateral spread zone is considered as loading parameter. Numerical results are verified with other research results and efficient applicability of developed procedure is shown. Analyses are performed by varying different parameters such as PGD pattern, pipe diameter and pipe thickness. Through these procedures, relative influences of various parameters on the response of buried pipeline subject to longitudinal PGD are investigated.
