An efficient preprocessor is developed for the finite element structural analysis of a ship's hull module. A hull module structure is divided into three groups for easy data handling : longitudinal members, transverse members, and transverse bulkheads. Based on the classification rules and design practices at shipyards, the preprocessor can create finite element nodes, elements, boundary conditions, and loadings automatically. By connecting the preprocessor with the ANSYS program, we can obtain the results of ship structureal analysis more efficiently. Applied to a typical double-hull oil tanker, the present preprocessor shows various advantages over conventional general-purpose preprocessors.

RC structure is the composite material system combined concrete and steel showing different plastic behavior. Especially, concrete shows very complex plastic behavior. Therefore, for plastic analysis of RC structures, we have to model carefully each plastic behavior of concrete and steel member. But, because of divergency as well as difficulties and dimensions of modelling, it takes a lot of time and labor or sometimes it is impossible to perform plastic analysis of RC structures. In this study, for simplified plastic analysis of RC structures, we propose material transformation method by homogeneous and isotropic material which have the same plastic property as RC. We generate homogeneous and isotropic material showing the same moment-curvature curves (bi-linear stress-strain relation) as RC members, using bi-linear moment-curvature relation by yielding moment, yielding curvature and ultimate moment, ultimate curvature of RC member. Finally, we prove compatibility in the study by comparing plastic analysis results for various analysis models using transformed material models and RC model.

Reliability analysis(RA) and Reliability-based design optimization(RBDO) require statistical modeling of input random variables, which is parametrically or nonparametrically determined based on experimental data. For the parametric method, goodness-of-fit (GOF) test and model selection method are widely used, and a sequential statistical modeling method combining the merits of the two methods has been recently proposed. Kernel density estimation(KDE) is often used as a nonparametric method, and it well describes a distribution function when the number of data is small or a density function has multimodal distribution. Although accurate statistical models are needed to obtain accurate RA and RBDO results, accurate statistical modeling is difficult when the number of data is small. In this study, the accuracy of two statistical modeling methods, SSM and KDE, were compared according to the number of data. Through numerical examples, the RA results using the input models modeled by two methods were compared, and appropriate modeling method was proposed according to the number of data.

The interest in evaluation of structural intensity arises for practical reasons, because net energy flow distribution offers information of energy transmission path, positions of sources, and sinks of vibration energy. In this paper, structural intensity analysis of local ship structures using finite element method(FEM) is carried out. The purpose of this analysis is to evaluate the relative accuracy according to mesh fineness. The structural intensity of unstiffened and stiffened plates varying their mesh fineness is analyzed and the results are compared with those obtained by the assumed mode method. As results, the proper mesh size in qualitative/quantitative structural intensity analysis of plate structures is proposed. In addition, the propagation phenomenon of vibration energy is investigated for the thickness-varying flat plate, L-type plate, and box-girder structures.

An aeroelastic stability can be degraded due to an aeroelastic modeling error and a structural uncertainty. Therefore it is necessary to predict the aeroelastic stability boundary considering an aeroelastic modeling error and a structural uncertainty. Robust aeroelastic analysis was proposed to predict the aeroelastic stability boundary considering these error and uncertainty. In the present study, the robust aeroelastic modeling and analysis were performed by using the ${\mu}$ analysis technique and the aeroelastic model of the control fin with modal approach and MSA. The computer program for the robust aeroelastic analysis was developed and verified by comparing its results with those of conventional aeroelastic analysis methods.

강철도 플레이트거더교의 경우 일반적으로 레일의 폭보다 거더 사이의 폭이 넓기 때문에 거더에 편심이 작용하게 된다. 이러한 편심 영향으로 거더 내측 상부플랜지에 휨변형이 일어나게 되어, 상부플랜지와 수직보강재 용접이음부에 반복하중에 의한 피로균열이 발생되고 있는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 공용중인 강철도 플레이트거더교를 대상교량으로 하여 공용하중에 대한 구조해석을 실시하였다. 대상교량에 대한 현장계측을 기초로 구조모델링을 검증하였고, 검증된 구조모델링을 사용하여 열차하중 하에서의 상부플랜지와 수직보강재 용접연결부에서의 피로균열 보강방안에 대한 구조해석을 실시하였다. 또한 상부플랜지와 수직보강재 용접이음부 상세해석을 통하여 피로균열 발생위치를 확인하고 연결이음부의 적절한 보강방안을 제시하고자 한다.

In order to grasp and evaluate the characteristics and the safety of traditional wooden building, we select one of the representative traditional wooden building, Buseoksa Muryangsujeon in this study. After the two and three-dimensional structural analysis of this building are performed, the results are compared and analyzed. Following main conclusion are obtained: 1) By comparison between the results of two and three-dimensional structural analysis, they show that the exterior members of this building tend to transfer more load in the three-dimensional analysis. 2) The result of three-dimensional structural analysis shows that the every member stress of Buseoksa Muryangsujeon except Chobang and Jangyon is below allowable stress. 3) For exact modelling of joints of members in traditional wooden building such as Gongpo, it is necessary to accumulate and analyze the technical data through structural test and systematic analysis study.

The purpose of the study presented in this paper is to develope the general model for capture of the linear and nonlinear response of a flexible diaphragm building in which there are significant contributions from the out-of-plane walls. Two single-story single-diaphragm half scale reinforced masonry buildings were tested by researchers at the United States Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL). The first had a metal deck diaphragm. The second specimen had a diaphragm with a single layer of diagonal lumber sheathing, A multiple degree of freedom (MDOF) approach is adopted in this paper. The required stiffnesses and strengths of the components within this model are determined.
