This study carried out a geometrical nonlinear dynamic analysis of laminated composite shell structures. Based on the first-order shear deformation shell theory and nonlinear formulation of Sanders, the Newmark method and Newton-Raphson iteration are used for dynamic solution considering nonlinear effects. The effects of radius, fiber angles, and layup sequences on the nonlinear dynamic response for various parameters are studied using a nonlinear dynamic finite element program developed for this study. The several numerical results were in good agreement with those reported by other investigators for square composite plates, and the new results reported in this paper show the significant interactions between the radius, fiber angles and layup sequence in the laminate. Key observation points are discussed and a brief design guideline of laminated composite shells is given.

본 연구에서는 박벽 구조물의 기하학적 비선형 해석을 수행하기 위하여 개선된 하중 및 변위 증분의 조합법이 제시되었다. 제안된 알고리즘은 기존의 하중 및 변 변위 증분의 조합법 이 고정된 증분량을 갖는 점을 개선하여, 수렴정도에 따라 증분량을 변화시킴으로써, 여러개의 임계점을 갖는 비선형 거동을 보다 효율적으로 추적하도록 하였다. 또한 하중 및 변위 증분법을 전환점을 첫 단계의 기울기에 비례한 값으로 대체함으로써 사용자의 편리를 도모하였다. 트러스, 공간 뼈대, 아치, 쉘 구조물 등의 기하학적 비선형 해석 예제를 통하여, 본 연구에서 제시한 개선된 하중 및 변위 증분의 조합법의 적용성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, 3-D frame design using refined plastic-hinge analysis accounting for local buckling is developed. This analysis accounts for material and geometric nonlinearities of the structural system and its component members. Moreover, the problem associated with conventional refined plastic-hinge analyses, which do not consider the degradation of the flexural strength caused by local buckling, is overcome. Efficient ways of assessing steel frame behavior including gradual yielding associated with residual stresses and flexure, second-order effect, and geometric imperfections are presented. In this study, a model consisting of the width-thickness ratio is used to account for local buckling. The proposed analysis is verified by the comparison of the LRFD results. A case study shows that local buckling is a very crucial element to be considered in second-order plastic-hinge analysis. The proposed analysis is shown to be an efficient, reliable tool ready to be implemented into design practice.

In this paper, mechanical behavior of unidirectional composites with flexible matrix was predicted by geometrical non-linear finite element analysis. Two typical idealized unit cells of square and hexagonal fiber arrays were modeled and these were subjected to different loadings. The stress-strain behavior of composites was predicted from which the effective properties were calculated. The hyperelasticity of polyurethane matrix was considered using Mooney-Rivlin model. In result, the stress-strain behavior of flexible composites shows non-linearity, especially it is remarkable under transverse normal and shear loading conditions. In this cases, there are great difference between square and hexagonal fiber array models.

The advanced analysis and optimal design of semi-rigid frame were presented. Advanced analysis can predict the combined nonlinear effects of connection, geometry, and material on the behavior and strength of semi-rigid frames. The Kishi-Chen power model was used to describe the nonlinear behavior of semi-rigid connections. Geometric nonlinearity was determined using stability functions. On the other hand, material nonlinearity was determined using the Column Research Council (CRC) tangent modulus and parabolic function. The direct search method proposed by Choi and Kim was used as optimization technique. The member with the largest unit value evaluated using the LRFD interaction equation was replaced one by one with an adjacent larger member selected from the database. The objective function was assumed as the weight of steel frame, with the constraint functions accounting for load-carrying capacities, deflections. inter-story drifts, and ductility requirement. Member sizes determined by the proposed method were compared with those derived using the conventional LRFD method.

Membrane structures, a kind of lightweight soft structural system, are used for spatial structures. The material property of the membrane has strong axial stiffness, but little bending stiffness. Therefore membrane structures are unstable structures initially. These soft structures need to be introduced initial stresses first because of its initial unstable state, and it happens large deformation phenomenon. To find the structural shape after large deformation caused by initial stiffness introduced, we need the shape analysis considering geometric nonlinearity in structural design procedure In this study, we analyze the soft spatial structures by the NASS which is the program for nonlinear analysis. The analytic model is a roof membrane structures of Barrel Vault-Type. We have done the shape analysis and the stress-deformation analysis considering the orthotropic material, and then study the safety.

This paper studied HART II in descending flight using rotorcraft analysis code based on geometrically exact beam (GEB) model. The present GEB model expressed by a mixed variational formulation could capture the geometrically nonlinear behavior of the blade without arbitrary assumptions. In previous results, correlation of airloads with structural moments for HART II was not as good as blade deflections. However, in present results, predictions of airloads and structural loads are fairly correlated with measured data.

해양 산업에서 심해로의 이동은 해양 구조물의 계류 장치의 중요성을 부각시켰고 그에 따른 기본적인 연구로서의 케이블 동력학에 대한 흥미를 일깨웠다. 거친 해상에서 케이블에 형성될 수 있는 큰 동장력과 기하학적 비선형성의 고려는 케이블의 비선형적 거동 해석에 주요 인자가 될 것이다. 또한 매우 큰 동장력 증폭에 의한 음의 큰 동장력은 케이블의 양의 정장력을 초과할 수 있고, 따라서 전체장력은 영 또는 음이 될 수 있다. 비선형 유체 항력을 포함한 모든 비선형성을 갖는 케이블의 이론적 해석 모델을 개발하고, 수치 결과와 기존의 실험 결과를 비교한다.

An efficient numerical procedure for material and geometric nonlinear analysis of reinforced concrete shells under monotonically increasing loads through their elastic, inelastic and ultimate load ranges is developed by using the finite element method. The 8-node Serendipity isoparametric element developed by the degeneration approach including the transverse shear deformation is used. A layered approach is used to represent the steel reinforcement and to discretize the concrete behavior through the thickness. The total Lagrangian formulation based upon the simplified Von Karman strain expressions is used to take into account the geometric nonlinearity of the structure. The material nonlinearities are taken into account by comprising the tension, compression, and shear models of cracked concrete and a model for reinforcement in the concrete; and also a so-called smeared crack model is incorporated. The steel reinforcement is assumed to be in a uniaxial stress state and is modelled as a smeared layer of equivalent thickness. This method will be verified a useful tool to account for geometric and material nonlinearities in detailed analysis of reinforced concrete concrete shells of general form through numerical examples of the sequential paper( ).
