In this study, a computationally efficient parallel axial-flexural plastic hinge model is proposed for nonlinear dynamic progressive collapse analysis of welded steel moment frames. To this end, post-yield flexural behavior and the interaction of bending moment and axial force of the double-span beams in the column's missing event was first investigated by using material and geometric nonlinear parametric finite element analysis. A piece-wise linear parallel point hinge model that captures the moment-axial tension interaction was then proposed and applied to nonlinear dynamic progressive collapse analysis of welded steel moment frames with the use of the OpenSees Program. The accuracy as well as the efficiency of the proposed model was verified based on the inelastic dynamic finite element analysis results. The importance of including the catenary action effects for proper progressive collapse resistant analysis and design was also emphasized.

본 논문은 차분진화 알고리즘을 이용한 다중 손상된 RC 슬라브 교량에 대한 시스템 인식(System Identification)기법을 소개한다. 제안된 기법을 이용하여 이동하중에 의한 교량의 동적응답을 기반으로 손상유무, 위치, 크기가 추정된다. ABAQUS를 이용한 손상된 3차원 슬라브 모델을 실험대상으로 하여, 모델로부터 동적응답을 찾아내었다. 차분진화 알고리즘(Differential Evolutioinary algorithm)을 기반으로 동적응답과 Bi-variate Gaussian 함수로 강성저하된 2차원 유한요소 MZC모델을 이용하여 손상된 위치와 크기, 이동하중의 크기와 속도가 추정되었다. 차분진화 알고리즘을 이용한 RC교량의 손상위치와 이동하중에 대한 추정은 3%이내의 오차를 보였고, 이로부터 제안된 방법의 효율성과 정확성이 검증되었다.

본 논문에서는 심혈관 조영영상으로부터 좌심실의 형태 및 운동을 가시화하기 위해 기하학적 정보와 물리적 정보를 통합한 동적 가우시안 블럽(dynamic gaussian blob)모델을 개발하였다. 동적 가우시안 블럽 모델은 superellipsoid에 3차원 가우시안 형태함수를 갖는 단일 유한요소를 통합한 것으로, 좌심실에 작용되는 가상적인 힘에 의해 형태를 적하하고, 심박동 전 주기에서의 운동을 추적한다. 또한 벽 운동 정도에 따라 다른 색을 지정하여 볼 수 있도록 함으로써 벽 운동에 이상이 있는 부위를 육안으로 쉽게 판별할 수 있도록 하였다. 이와 같은 좌심실의 동적.색체 가시화는 형태가 변황되는 심장질환이나 허혈이나 심근경색증처럼 심실벽 운동에 이상이 있는 질환의 진단을 도울 수 있다.

To improve the modeling accuracy for the finite element method, this paper proposes a method to make a combined use of finite elements and exact dynamic elements. Exact interpolation functions for a Timoshenko beam element are derived and compared with interpolation functions of the finite element method (FEM). The exact interpolation functions are tested with the Laplace variable varied. The exact interpolation functions are used to gain more accurate mode shape functions for the finite element method. This paper also presents a combined use of finite elements and exact dynamic elements in design problems. A Timoshenko frame with tapered sections is tested to demonstrate the design procedure with the proposed method.

New dynamic analysis procedures lot the vertically drilled sea water pile are suggested and demonstrated by the typical design Problem. Pile structure submerged in the sea water as well as forces by the ocean waves and tidal currents are modeled and formulated by finite element method. To obtain wave forces for the finite element equation, Airy's wave theory is tested and selected among others. Lateral lifting forces induced by the vortex shedding of current flow is simply based on the harmonic function with the Strouhal frequency and lifting coefficient. Natural frequencies and frequency responses for the pile are calculated by NASTRAN using the results of the formulation. Dynamic displacement and stress results obtained by these procedures are shown to be applicable to predict the dynamic behaviors of the ocean pile by the wave and lifting forces as a preliminary design analysis.

A family of variational principles governing the dynamics of laminated plate has been derived using a variationally consistent shear deformable discrete laminated plate theory with particular reference to finite element procedures. The theoretical basis for the derivation is Sandhu's generalized procedure for the variational formulation of linear coupled boundary value problem. As the bilinear mapping to write the operator matrix of the field equations in self-adjoint form, convolution product was employed. Boundary conditions, initial conditions and probable internal discontinuity were explicitly included in the governing functionals. Some interesting extensions and specializations of the general variational principle were presented, which can provide many different finite element formulations for the problem.

A dynamic simulation and test of frame with thin walled closed section beams considering warping conditions have been performed. When a beam is subjected under torsional moment, the cross section will deform an warping as well as twist. For some thin-walled sections warping will be large, and accompanying warping restraint will induce axial and shear stresses and reduce the twist of beam which stiffens the beam in torsion. This paper presents that an warping restraint factor in finite element model effects the behavior of beam deformation and dynamic mode shape. The computer modelling of frame is discussed in linear beam element model and linear thin shell element model, also presents a correlation between computer predicted and actual experimental results for static deflection, natural frequencies and mode shapes of frame.

This study carried out finite element vibration analysis of composite plate structures for construction using multi-scale approaches, which is based on the higher-order theory. The finite element (FE) models for composite structures using multi-scale approaches described in this paper is attractive not only because it shows excellent accuracy in analysis but also it shows the effect of the material combination. The FE model is used for studying free vibrations of laminated composite plates for various fiber-volume fractions. In particular, new results reported in this paper are focused on the significant effects of the fiber-volume fraction for various parameters, such as fiber angles, layup sequences, and length-thickness ratios. It may be concluded from this study that the combination effect of fiber and matrix, largely governing the dynamic characteristics of composite structures, should not be neglected and thus the optimal combination could be used to design such civil structures for better dynamic performance.

최근 보행자가 교량의 진동에 의한 불안감을 느끼는 경우가 발생되면서 설계 단계에서 진동에 대한 고려하고 있다. 그러나 설계자는 범용유한요소프로그램에 이동하중을 적용하여 동적응답해석을 하는 것에 어려움을 느끼고 있으며 그 결과 Meister감각곡선에 의한 진동사용성 평가도 정확히 수행되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 설계자들이 수행하는 교량의 진동사용성 평가방법의 간편한 적용을 위하여 이동하중모델 생성툴을 연구하였으며, 범용유한요소프로그램으로 모델링 된 교량의 매개변수를 변화해가며 진동사용성 평가를 수행하였고 연구 결과 중 매개변수의 하나인 보요소의 길이에 따른 진동사용성 평가결과만을 작성하였다. 평가결과 보요소의 길이에 따라 교량에 발생되는 진동과 가속도의 응답치가 다르게 나타났으며, 발생되는 주요주파수 범위도 다르게 해석되었다. 이러한 동적응답의 결과가 다르게 해석되면서 Meister 감각곡선에 의한 평가등급이 차이도 발생되었다. 따라서 정확한 진동사용성 평가를 위해서는 동적응답해석 시 다양한 매개변수에 의한 동적응답의 결과에 대한 연구는 물론 다양한 교량 형식과 그에 맞는 모델링에 대한 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Mechanical structures are composed of substructures connected by joints and boundary elements. While the finite element representation of plain substructures is well developed and reliable, joints have a lot of uncertainties in being accurately modelled and affect dynamic behavior of a total system. In order to improve the accuracy of a finite element model, a new method is proposed, in which reduced finite element model is combined with a system identification technique. After substructures except joints are modelled with finite element method and joint properties are represented by parameter states, non-linear state equation is derived in which parameter states are multiplied by physical states such as displacements and velocities. So the joint parameter identification is transformed into non-linear state estimation problem. The methods are tested and discussed numerically and the feasibility for physical application has been demonstrated through two example structures.
