We present a real-time GPU(Graphic Processing Unit) marching tetrahedra technique that extracts isosurfaces in the indexed mesh format from BCC(Body Centered Cubic) volume datasets. Compared to classical marching tetrahedra, our method shows better performance with little memory overhead. Our technique is composed of five stages. In the first stage, which needs to be done only once, we build min/max blocks that is to be used for empty space skipping to boost the performance. Next, we extract active blocks that contain the current isovalue. In the next two stages, we extract the edges and cells that contain the isosurface and then the final triangular mesh is generated in the last stage. When applied 512³ or higher resolution volume dataset, our technique shows up to 5 times speed improvement compared to the classical marching tetrahedra algorithm.

본 논문에서는 열-전기-기계 하중 하의 지능형 복합재료 보 모델을 전산점근해석기법에 기초하여 개발하였다. 열-전기-기계 하중 하의 구조물은 지난 십년간 많은 연구가 있어왔으나, 주로 고전적 보 모델에 기반을 두어 진행되어져 왔다. 멀티피직스 환경하의 구조물은 여러 가지 하중의 조합과 이에 따른 연성효과의 고려가 필수적이다. 따라서 공학적인 가정이 없는 점근해석기법은 보다 정확한 등가 보 모델을 개발하는데 있어 기반요소가 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 멀티피직스 구성방정식으로부터 출발하여 점근기법을 적용 체계적으로 등가 보 모델을 유도하고 그 해석 결과를 고찰하고자 한다.

The Equivalent vehicle load factors of Beams and Girders on parking garage structure are proposed in this study. Without taking the sophisticated numerical analysis for the concentrated wheel loads, the design member forces of beam and girder can be easily calculated only with those for the distributed load by using the constructed relationships between the equivalent vehicle load factor and the length of member. Besides, the standard vehicle with total weight of 2.4ton is designed based on the review of many foreign design codes for parking garage and the investigation of small to medium vehicles made in Korea. Finally the efficiency and the reliability of the proposed equivalent vehicle load factors are demonstrated through the application of the typical beam and girder.

A new equivalent curved beam theory is developed for the analysis of the corner part of ship structures, in which effects of distributed loads and asymmetricity with two or three connected parts are considered. Equivalent loads are obtained from equilibrium conditions between the distributed loads and the member forces and moments at the ends of curved beam. And an equivalent curved beam for the asymmetric structure is obtained by superposing the equivalent symmetric parts which have equivalent stiffness. From the sample calculation, it is found that the results of the new equivalent curved beam theory are well agreed with those of finite element method using membrane elements with little computing time and sufficient accuracy.

To perform performance-based seismic design of buildings, it is necessary clear goal for usage and stability after an earthquake. To clear this goal, it requires a review of the constituent material of the building and, in particular, a member used as an indicator of the residual strain is useful. There are more usage of prestressed concrete because of prestressing steel witch has characteristics of the origin-oriented. In this study, the goal is estimating of residual strain on the prestressed concrete beam member. The expression for angle of deformed prestressed concrete beam member was obtained from using of curvature on the critical section and the equivalent plastic hinge length based on 'equivalent plastic hinge length method'. Considering the balance of strength and deformation conditions, suitable analysis values were derived from 'split Element Method'. Through various parametric studies, various factors affecting the residual strain were decided. Based on the results of this study, it is expected many researches will be proceed in the future.

The flexural-stiffness formula of the wale for the innovative prestressed support (IPS) system was precisely derived, and the equivalent beam stiffness was introduced for application in the actual design of the IPS wale. The cable tension forces of the IPS wale were calculated in both cases, and the axial-deformation effects were included and ignored, respectively. The central displacements of the 1-post, 2-post, 3-post, and 4-post IPS wales were calculated based on the principle of virtual work. The effects of the IPS wale length and cable inclination angle were also investigated using the derived central displacements. The simplified equivalent flexural stiffness of the IPS wale is presented herein for design purposes, and the validity of the proposed design formula was verified through its comparison with the FE and analysis solutions.

Most components in the real world show nonlinear response. The nonlinearity may arise because of contact between the parts, nonlinear material, or large deformation of the components. Structural optimization considering nonlinearities is fairly expensive because sensitivity information is difficult to calculate. To overcome this difficulty, the equivalent load method was proposed for nonlinear response optimization. This method was originally developed for size and shape optimization. In this study, the equivalent load method is modified to perform topology optimization considering all kinds of nonlinearities. Equivalent load is defined as the load for linear analysis that generates the same response field as that for nonlinear analysis. A simple example demonstrates that results of the topology optimization using equivalent load are very similar to the numerical results. Nonlinear response topology optimization is performed with a practical example and the results are compared with those of conventional linear response topology optimization.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 강도에 미치는 양생온도의 영향이 양생시점에 따라 어떻게 변하는지에 대한 실험과 기존의 모델식을 이용하여 분석을 수행하였으며, 양생시점의 영향을 고려한 수정된 등가재령식을 제시함으로써 새로운 강도예측식을 개발하기 위한 기초연구이다. 이를 위해 2종류의 물.시멘트비에 대하여 각각 11종류의 양생이력을 고려한 실험을 수행하였다. 실험변수로는 3종류의 양생온도 (5 $^{\circ}C$, 20 $^{\circ}C$, 4$0^{\circ}C$)와 4종류의 양생시점(0~1일. 1~2, 2~3, 6~7일)을 선정하였다. 또 기존의 Saul 및 Arrhenius 모델식을 이용하여 실험결과를 분석하여 양생시점의 영향을 도입한 각각 수정된 등가재령식을 제시하였다. 실험결과에서 초기재령에서 고온 양생한 경우에는 초기에는 높은 강도를 나타내지만 재령이 증가할수록 오히려 낮은 강도를 나타내었다. 또 초기에 저온으로 양생한 콘크리트는 그 반대의 경향을 보였다. 기존의 등가재령식에서는 같은 등가재령에서도 압축강도는 양생시점에 따라 달라짐을 알 수 있었다. 기존의 모델식은 특히 초기재령에서의 강도예측결과가 실험결과와 잘 맞지 않았으나 이 논문에서 제시된 수정된 등가재령식은 실험결과와 잘 일치하는 결과를 보여 주었다.
