본 연구에서는 기존에 수행된 균일단면을 가지는 I형 보의 좌굴 강도에 대한 해석적?이론적 연구를 토대로 일축대칭을 이루는 변단면 I형보의 좌굴강도를 산정하고자 범용구조해석프로그램 ABAQUS (2007)를 이용하여 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 유한요소해석에는 4절점 쉘요소인 S4R이 사용되었고, 플랜지 길이방향 비, 너비방향 비, 두께의 비로 일축대칭 스텝보를 사용하였으며, 균일모멘트를 작용시켰다. 개발된 좌굴강도 제안식은 해석결과와 비교하여 -11%~2%의 오차범위를 나타내었다. 본 연구결과는 다양한 형식의 일축대칭 I형보가 사용되는 빌딩 및 교량 구조물의 경제적이고 합리적인 설계에 활용 될 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구의 주 목적은 돔형 구조물의 해석에 있어서 보-데크 연결 모델을 정식화하는데 있다. 목조 돔 구조물의 데크지붕 효과는 Wu(1991), Telang(1992) 등에 의해 제안되었으며, 데크지붕 효과를 설명하기 위해 트러스 브레이싱법을 도입하였다. 그러나 이 TB법은 좁은 간격으로 박혀있는 못 들의 효과를 적절히 설명해 내지 못했다. 다른 한편으로는 Tsang(1991), Kavi(1992) 등이 Dolan(1989)의 이론을 응용한 보-데크 연결법(BDC)을 도입하여 해석하였다. 이 BDC모델은 보 요소의 이 보 요소에 강체링크로 연결되어 있는 스프링 요소가 보요소의 각 절점을 공유하게 되므로, 아무리 많은 스프링을 가정하더라도 자유도수는 증가하지 않는다는 것이다. 그러므로 돔 구조와 같은 대형 구조물을 해석할 때 컴퓨터 용량과 계산시간을 절약할 수 있다.

A totally, new approach of Lagrangian formulation named 'Pseudo Lagrangian Formulation(PLF)' for large deformation analysis of continue and structures by the finite of element method has been presented, and the efficiency and accuracy of nonlinear analysis beam element formulated by PLF has been discussed by solving several numerical examples. In PLF, the deformation of a body is maeasured by assigning a nonphysical 'Pseudo' configuration as reference. The Lagrangian deformation and the finite element mapping of the traditonal Lagrangian approaches are then carried out directly at the same time, The result of numerical tests shows superior performance of PLF to the traditional Lagrangian methods, Applications of PLF to small and finite deformation problems indicate that PLF not only serves as an alternative but has certain implementational advantages over total or updated Lagrangian formulations.

For spatial free vibration of non-symmetric thin-walled curved beams with shear deformation, an improved formulation is proposed in the present study. The elastic strain and the kinetic energies are first derived by considering constant curvature and shear deformation effects due to shear forces and restrained warping torsion. Next equilibrium equations and force-deformation relations are obtained using a stationary condition of total potential energy. And the finite element procedures are developed by using isoparametric curved beam element with arbitray thin-walled sections. Particularly not only shear deformation and thickness-curvature effects on vibration behaviors of curved beams but also mode transition and crossover phenomena with change in curvatures of beams are parametrically investigated. In order to illustrate the accuracy and the reliability of this study, various numerical solutions for spatial free vibration are compared with results by available references and ABAQUS's shell element.

Recently, extensive research on crack analysis using extended finite element method(XFEM) which has main advantages in element re-meshing and visualization of cracks has been conducted. However, its application was restricted to the members of a single material. In this study, the applicability and feasibility of the XFEM to the multiple crack analysis of reinforced concrete beams were demonstrated. ABAQUS which has implemented XFEM was used for the crack analysis and its results were compared with test results. Enriched degree-of-freedom locking phenomenon was discovered and its causes and the ways to prevent it were suggested. The locking occurs when cracks in the adjacent elements simultaneously develop. A modelling technique for multiple cracking similar to test results was also proposed. The analysis with XFEM showed similar results to the tests in terms of crack patterns, spacing of cracks, and load-deflection relationship.

In this paper, beam finite elements with higher-order derivatives' continuity are formulated and evaluated for various boundary conditions. All the beam elements are based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. These higher-order beam elements are often required to analyze structures by using newly developed higher-order beam theories and/or non-classical beam theories based on nonlocal elasticity. It is however rare to assess the performance of such elements in terms of boundary and loading conditions. To this end, two higher-order beam elements are formulated, in which $C^2$ and $C^3$ continuities of the deflection are enforced, respectively. Three different boundary conditions are then applied to solve beam structures, such as cantilever, simply-support and clamped-hinge conditions. In addition to conventional Euler-Bernoulli beam boundary conditions, the effect of higher-order boundary conditions is investigated. Depending on the boundary conditions, the oscillatory behavior of deflections is observed. Especially the geometric boundary conditions are problematic, which trigger unstable solutions when higher-order deflections are prescribed. It is expected that the results obtained herein serve as a guideline for higher-order derivatives' continuous finite elements.

The Formulation of a new Hermite straight beam element to eliminate the shear locking is presented. All the kinematic variables in Timoshenko beam are reinterpreted by the consideration of equilibrium equations together. It shows that when the modified transverse displacement field is used the Timoshenko beam looks apparently the same as the Euler beam. The element is formulated for the modified transverse displacement field to have the same interpolation scheme as that in the Hermite element. Transformation Matrix which relates a modified nodal vector with nonmodified one is also introduced to deal with general boundary conditions. Several examples are demonstrated and discussed for the purpose of verification of the concepts employed. The solutions obtained reveal that the element describes of the beam quite correctly, showing no locking and that it is also applicable to the analysis of both thin and thick beams.

Even todays, accurate and efficient algorithms for the large deformation analysis of elastoplastic frame structures lack due to the complexities of kinematics, material nonlinearities and numerical methods to cater for. The author suggests appropriate beam element based upon the incremental formulation from the 3D rod theory where Cauchy stress and engineering strain are variables to incorporate plasticity equations so that objectivity may be satisfied. A rectum mapping methods which can integrate and satisfy yield criteria efficiently is suggested and a continuation method which has global convergency and quadratic speed is developed as well. leading-unloading example problems are tested and the ideas are proved to be valuable.

A mixed type finite element method is applied to the nonuniform shear warping beam theory which is very useful for the structural analysis of thin-walled sectional beams considering the shear deformation. As known generally, it is shown that the mixed type finite element method, compared with the displacement type one, can give more balanced accuracy of results in calculating the stresses and displacements of the structure. In this paper, one typical example, the flexural-torsional problem of a discontinuously variable sectional beam under coupled end torsional moments, is selected and analyzed to validate the usefulness of the developed beam element.

This study introduces an algorithm for determination of hypocentral parameters using phase analysis and two-point ray tracing to enhance accuracy and stability of computations. When the magnitude of earthquake is relatively small(usually $m_{b}$<3.2), the PmP phase which looks like the first arrival phase may be observed without observing the Pn phase. In this case, the hypocentral parameters calculated by the existing method using the first arrival of P and S phases and by the method developed in this study using PmP and SmS phases show large differences. The computational results of determination of hypocentral parameters for actual earthquake events show that this method gives much smaller rms errors than the existing methods do.o.
