This paper presents a novel hybrid time-frequency-domain method for nonlinear soil-structure interaction(SSI) analysis. It employs, in a practical manner, a computer code for equivalent linear SSI analysis and a general-purpose nonlinear finite element program. The proposed method first (calculates dynamic responses on a truncated finite element boundary utilizing an equivalent linear SSI program in the frequency domain. Then, a general purpose nonlinear finite element program is employed to analyze the nonlinear SSI problem in the time domain, in which boundary conditions at the truncated boundary are imposed with the responses calculated in the previous frequency domain SSI analysis, In order to validate the proposed method, seismic response analyses are carried out for a 2-D underground subway station in a multi-layered half-space, For the analyses, a equivalent linear SSI code KIESSI-2D is coupled to ANSYS program. The numerical results indicate that the proposed methodology can be a viable solution for nonlinear SSI problems.

Though a nonlinear time history analysis may be provided to estimate more exactly the seismic performance of building structure, approximation methods are still needed in the aspect of practicality and simplicity, In converting a multi-story structure to an equivalent SDOF system, the mode vectors of the multi-story structure are assumed as the mode shape in elastic state regardless of elastic or elastic-plastic state. However, the characteristics of displacement mode are also changed after the yielding made in the structural elements, because the structure becomes inelastic in each incremental load step. In this research, a method of converting MDOF system to ESDOF system is presented by using nonlinear displacement mode considering the mode change of structures after the yielding. Also, the accuracy and efficiency of the method of the nonlinear displacement mode method of the estimate of seismic response of Mixed Building Structures were examined by comparing the displacements of the roof level of the multi-story building structures estimated from this converted displacement response of ESDOF with the displacement of the roof level through the nonlinear dynamic analysis of the multi-story building structures subjected to an actual earthquake excitation.

일반적으로 가변구조제어는 외란과 변수 변화에 대해 강인한 특성을 가지지만 제어기 설계자는 이러한 값들에 대한 상한 값과 하한 값을 알아야한다. 그러나 때로는 이러한 상한 값과 하한 값을 얻는다는 것은 쉽지가 않다. 이에 반해 퍼지제어기는 외란과 변수 변화에 대한 제어기 설계에 있어서 효과적인 방법을 제공한다. 따라서 퍼지제어기와 가변구조제어기가 가지는 장점들을 결합하는 연구가 진행되어져 왔다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 선형 슬라이딩 면을 가지는 퍼지제어기를 이용하는 방법 대신 비선형 슬라이딩 면을 가지는 퍼지제어기를 이용한 적응 퍼지 가변구조제어기를 이용하였다. 따라서 시스템의 결과는 선형 슬라이딩 면을 가지는 제어기 설계에서 나타나는 동적 특성과 정적 특성의 대립을 해결할 수 있다. 또한, 가변구조제어의 동적 특성을 결정하는 제어입력을 도입하여 적응 퍼지 가변구조제어기의 안정도를 판명하였다. 제안된 제어 알고리듬의 유용성을 입증하기 위해 비선형성이 큰 가변 길이를 갖는 진자 시스템을 이용하였다.

Neural networks, having highly nonlinear dynamics by virtue of the distributed nonlinearities and the learing ability, have the potential for the adaptive prediction of nonstationary signals. This paper describes the nonlinear prediction of these signals in two ways; using a nonlinear module and the cascade combination of nonlinear and linear modules. Fully-connected recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and a conventional tapped-delay-line (TDL) filter are used as the nonlinear and linear modules respectively. The dynamic behavior of the proposed predictors is demonstrated for chaotic time series adn speech signals. For the relative comparison of prediction performance, the proposed predictors are compared with a conventional ARMA linear prediction model. Experimental results show that the neural networks based adaptive predictor ourperforms the traditional linear scheme significantly. We also find that the cascade combination predictor is well suitable for the prediction of the time series which contain large variations of signal amplitude.

본 연구에서는 비선형 FEM 해석을 이용하여 PSC(Prestressed concrete)와 강으로 구성된 혼합구조 보의 휨 실험을 검증하였다. 혼합구조 보의 거동에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 연결부는 Perfobond rib로 구성된 경우와 스터드로 구성된 경우를 고려하였다. 이종 재료가 접하는 경계면의 상호 작용에 대해 완전합성과 부분합성인 경우를 고려하여 혼합구조 보의 비선형 해석을 수행한 후 해석 결과와 실험 결과를 비교하였다. 하중-처짐관계, 파괴 형상 등의 해석 결과를 실험 결과와 비교한 결과, 부분합성을 고려한 모형이 실험 결과와 유사한 거동을 보였으며 또한 Perfobond rib를 갖는 실험체가 스터드를 갖는 실험체보다 해석 결과와 비교 시 안전측의 결과를 나타냈다.

Site soil condition affects significantly on the seismic response of a structure and is a critical factor for the performance based seismic design of a structure. In this paper, the effects of nonlinear soil properties on the elastic response spectra of a structure including the nonlinearity of a soil due to the earthquake excitation is investigated using one step finite element approach for the entire soil structure system and approximate linear iterative procedure to simulate the nonlinear soil behavior with the Ramberg-Osgood soil model. Studies were carried out for a linear SDOF system of a variable period with and without a pile group for the 1940 CI Centro earthquake recorded on ground rather than rock. The study results showed clearly that the effect of the nonlinear behavior of soft soil is very important on the elastic seismic response of a structure suggesting the necessity of the performance based seismic design.

As the construction of nuclear power plants are increased, nuclear wastes disposal has been faced as a serious problem. If nuclear wastes are to be buried in the underground stratum, thermo-mechanical behavior of stratum must be analyzed, because high temperature distribution has a significant effect on tunnel and surrounding stratum. In this study, in order to analyze the structural behavior of the underground which is subject to concentrated heat sources, a coupling method of nonlinear finite elements and linear boundary elements is proposed. The nonlinear finite elements (NFE) are applied in the vicinity of nuclear depository where thermo-mechanical stress is concentrated. The boundary elements are also used in infinite domain where linear behavior is expected. Using the similar method as for the problem in mechanical field, the coupled nonlinear finite element-boundary element (NFEBE) is developed. It is found that NFEBE method is more efficient than NFE which considers nonlinearity in the whole domain for the nuclear wastes depository that is expected to exhibit local nonlinearity behavior. The effect of coefficients of the rock mass such as Poisson's ratio, elastic modulus, thermal diffusivity and thermal expansion coefficient is investigated through the developed method. As a result, it is revealed that the displacements around tunnel are largely dependent on the thermal expansion coefficients.

The objective of this paper is to propose an analysis technique to predict the behavior of PC wall structures subjected to cyclic load. While PC wall panel is idealized by finite elements, the joints at which PC walls are connected each other are idealized by nonlinear spring elements. Axial and shear spring elements are developed for simulating shear, compression and tension behaviors of joints. The strength and stiffness of each spring elements we presented from the previous research results and incorporated into the computer program of DRAIN-2DX. The proposed analysis technique is evaluated by analyzing specimens previously tested and comparing with those. On the strength, stiffness, energy dissipation and lateral drift, analytical results show good agreements with test results. This means the proposed technique is effective to predict the response of the PC wall structures.
