A new solution procedure for approximate reanalysis, using the staged hybrid methods with substructuring, is proposed in this study. Displacements are calculated with two step mixed procedures. First step is to introduce the conservative approximation, which is a hybrid form of the linear and reciprocal approximation, as local approximation. In the next step, it is combined with the global approximation by reduced basis approach. Stresses are evaluated from the displacements by matrix transformation. The quality of reanalyzed quantities can be greatly improved through these staged hybrid approximations, specially for large changes in the design. Overall procedures are based on substructuring scheme. Several numerical examples illustrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed methods.

This paper presents an efficient reanalysis algorithm, named PRAS (Partial Reanalysis algorithm using Adaptable Substructuring), for the partially changed structures. The algorithm recalculates directly any displacement or member force under consideration in real time without a full reanalysis in spite of local changes in member stiffness or connectivity_ The key procedures consists of 1) partitioning the whole structure into the changed part and the unchanged part, 2) condensing the internal degrees of freedom and forming the unchanged part substructure, 3) assembling and solving the new stiffness matrix from the unchanged part substructure and the changed members.

This paper presents the effects of fire-resistant materials on the temperature and vertical deflection of a composite beam exposed to fire through nonlinear thermo-mechanical analysis. The fire was modeled using the standard fire curve proposed in American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) E119. Fire-resistant materials were modeled by reducing the heat transfer coefficient from the air layer to the beam. The temperature and vertical deflection of the uncoated composite beam were measured using a laboratory fire test, and the results of the structural fire analysis were verified through comparison with experimental results. By introducing the fire-resistance effect, the reduction in the temperature and deflection of the beam for the ASTM E119 standard fire can be reasonably estimated. Based on a case study of the heat transfer coefficient, the fire-resistant effect on the thermo-mechanical response of a composite beam in the event of a fire is presented.

Efficient approximate reanalysis techniques based on substructuring are presented. In most optimal design problems, the analysis precedure must be repeated many times. In particular, one of the main obstacles in the structural optimization systems is high computational cost and time required for the repeated analysis of large-scale structural systems. The purpose of this paper is to show how to evaluate efficiently the sturctural behavior of new designs using information from the previous ones, instead of the multiple repeated analysis of basic equations for successive modification in the optimal design. The proposed reanalysis method is a combined Taylor series expansion and reduced basis method based on substructuring. Several numerical examples illustrate the effectiveness of the method.

Design-oriented approximate structural reanalysis models are compared and assessed, particularly with focus on the case of large changes of design variables. The effectiveness and reliability are demonstrated by means of numerical examples. The results of the study suggest the following conclusions relative to the potential of the procedures. (A) local approximation is only appropriate for the case of small changes in design : (B) global approximation is exact for the case of large changes in a small number of design variables, but inefficient : (C) local-global approximation is most effective and reliable for the case of large changes with a large number of design variables. These methods can improve the total efficiency when they are appropriately used to the design information for the redesign process of large scale structures.

강상판교는 부재수가 많고 구조적 거동이 복잡하여 재래적인 단일수준 (CSL) 알고리즘을 이용하여 최적화하는 것이 매우 어렵기 때문에 본 연구에서는 강상판교를 효율적으로 최적화하기 위해 다단계 최적설계 (MLDS) 알고리즘이 제안되었다. 강상판교를 주형과 강상판으로 나누기 위해 등위법이 사용되었고, 시스템 최적화를 위하여 설계 변수를 줄이는 분해법이 사용되었다. 효율적인 최적설계를 위해 다단계 최적설계 알고리즘은 제약조건 소거기법(Constraint Deletion)과 응력 재해석 같은 근사화 기법을 도입하였다. 변위해석을 위한 제약조건 소거기법은 교량의 최적화에 효율적인 것으로 검증되었고, 제안된 응력 재해석 기법 또한 설계민감도 해석을 필요로 하지 않으므로 매우 효율적이다. MLDS 알고리즘의 적용성과 강건성은 다양한 수치예제를 사용하여 기존의 단일수준 알고리즘과 비교하였다.

In this study, an optimum design algorithm using efficient reanalysis is proposed for seismic design of Reinforced Concrete (RC) piers. The proposed algorithm for optimization of RC piers is based on efficient reanalysis technique. Considering structural behavior of RC piers, the other approximation technique such as artificial constraint deletion is introduced to increase the efficiency of optimization. The efficiency and robustness of the proposed algorithm including the proposed reanalysis technique is demonstrated by comparing it with a conventional optimization algorithm. A few of design examples are optimized to show the applicability of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents the equivalent nodal load for the element stiffness which represents the influence of the stiffness change such as the addition of elements, the deletion of elements, and/or the partial change of element stiffness. The reanalysis of structure using the equivalent load improves the efficiency very much because the inverse of the structural stiffness matrix, which needs a large amount of computation to calculate, is reused in the reanalysis. In this paper, the concept of the equivalent load for the element stiffness is described and some numerical examples are provided to verify it.

현재 증강현실 인터페이스 상의 정보시각화는 공간과 사용자 그리고, 구조를 적절히 반영하여 제공되고 있지 못한 실정이다. 증강현실이 만들어낸 현실과 가상의 병치된 공간 안에서, 인터페이스는 우리가 생활하는 물리적 공간 그 자체가 된다. 따라서 증강현실을 위한 UI를 구조화 할 때, 기존 인터페이스가 가진 특성을 AR공간안에서 재해석 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 증강현실 상 지능적 정보 시각화에 있어 고려해야 할 요소를 정보디자인의 설계 과정을 토대로 추출하여 AR공간에 특화된 UI구축의 방법론으로 제안하고자 한다.
