It is usual that underground structures are constructed within a multi-layered medium. In this paper, an efficient numerical modelling of multi-layered structural systems is studied using coupled analysis of finite elements and boundary elements. The finite elements are applied to the area in which the material nonlinearity dominates, and the boundary elements are applied to the far field where the nonlinearity is relatively weak. In the boundary element modelling of the multi-layered medium, fundamental solutions are not readily available. Thus, methods which can utilize existing Kelvin solutions are sought for the interior multi-layered domain problem. The interior domain problem which has piecewise homogeneous layers is analyzed using boundary elements with Kelvin solution, by discretizing each homogeneous subdomain and enforcing compatibility and equilibrium conditions between interfaces. Developed methodology is verified by comparing its results with those from the finite element analysis and it is concluded that coupled analysis using boundary elements and finite elements can be reasonable and efficient.

Fluid/structure interaction (FSI) analysis is necessary to predict the response of a system in which aerodynamic pressure causes deformation of the structure, and vice versa. In dealing with a nonlinear behavior of the structure, however, a simple iterative algorithm of aerodynamic analysis with structural analysis yields no accurate results since aerodynamic pressure need to be changed in accordance with the deformation of structures. In this study, we explore an efficient and accurate method for integrating FSI analysis into structural nonlinear systems. During the course of nonlinear structural analysis, loading conditions are periodically updated by aerodynamic analysis. The accuracy and efficiency of the method is demonstrated with a high-aspect-ratio flexible wing of Global Hawk.

A direct design method of three-dimensional frames using practical advanced analysis is presented. In this method. separate member capacity checks encompassed by the code specifications are not required. because the stability of separate members and the structure as a whole can be rigorously treated in determining the maximum strength of the structures. Advanced analysis accounts for geometric and material nonlinearities. The geometric nonlinearlity is considered by the use of stability function. The material nonlinearity is accounted for using CRC tangent modulus and parabolic function. The load-displacements predicted by the proposed analysis compare well with those given by other approaches. A design example has been presented for a 22-story frame. The analysis results show that the proposed method is suitable for adoption in practice.

Since composite materials have anisotropic properties that depend on their stacking angle and sequence, the analysis of joints with isotropic adherends is limited in describing the behavior of the adhesive Joint with composite adherends. In this study, the nonlinear solution for adhesive joints with composite adherends was derived by incorporating the nonlinear behavior of the adhesive into the analysis. The behavior of the laminated composite tube was first analyzed, and the stress distributions of the composite tubular adhesive joint were calculated by including the nonlinear properties of the adhesive. The effect of the stacking sequence of composite adherends and bonding length on torque capacities of joints was examined, and results of the nonlinear analysis were also compared with those of the linear analysis.

본 연구에서는 핵연료봉의 여러가지 모양형태에 대한 충격실험과 해석을 통해 비선형해석 code의 해석모델에 대한 검증을 수행하였다. 이 두 결과의 비교를 통해 개발된 모델은 다중 span을 갖는 보나 봉의 비선형충격해석에 충분히 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이러한 모델을 통한 비선형충격해석시 주의해야 할 점은 자유진동해석시의 고유진동수를 찾기 위한 경계조건을 정확히 하는 것이 중요하며, 또한 충격해석시의 정확한 충격등가스프링비를 결정하는 것이 중요하다.

Linear GPA(Gas Path Analysis) and non-linear GPA programs for performance diagnostics of a turboprop engine were developed, and a study for selection of optimal measurement variables was performed. Simultaneous faults in the compressor, the compressor turbine and the power turbine, which occur damage of the engine, were assumed. The non-linear GPA analysis was carried out with an iterative method, where the performance degradation rate of independent parameters was divided into same intervals. It was compared with the result by the Newton-Raphson method for observing the effect of an iterative method. According to the analysis result, it was found that performance of non-linear GPA can be influenced on the type of the iterative method. For showing effects of the number of measurement variables both the linear and non-linear GPAs were analyzed with 10, 8 and 6 measurement sets, respectively. RMS error between them were compared each other. It was realized that the more measurement parameters are used, and the more accurate result may be obtained. However much better result can be obtained with measurement parameters selected properly Moreover, RMS error by using non-linear GPA was less than that by using linear GPA.

비선형 구조물에 대하여 미끄러짐 또는 기울어짐 해석을 수행할 때에는 수평 두 방향 입력을 동시에 고려하는 해석을 수행할 것을 추천한다. 그 이유는 단일 방향 입력만을 고려한 비선형 해석의 결과가 입력지진의 기준선 조정 여부에 아주 민감하고 자칫 과도하게 보수적이거나 또는 오히려 비보수적인 결과를 초래할 수 있기 때문이다. 특히, 오래 전에 작성되어 일차적 해석만 가능한 전산 프로그램을 사용하여 해석하는 경우 주의가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 입력지진의 기준선조정에 의한 영향을 수평 단일방향 입력만을 고려하는 해석과 수평 두 방향 입력을 동시에 고려하는 해석에 대하여 살펴본다. 이를 위하여 자립형 계에 대한 예저 헤석을 수행한 결과, 단일방향 비선형 해석시 나타날 수 있는 이러한 불확실성을 피하기 위하여 두 방향 입력을 동시에 고려하는 해석이 필요하고 입력 지진의 기준선 조정과 연계된 표준화된 지침이 필요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

It has been recognized that the damage control must become a more explicit design consideration. In an effort to develop design methods based on performance it is clear that the evaluation of the nonlinear response is required. The methods available to the design engineer today are nonlinear time history analyses, monotonic static nonlinear analyses, or equivalent static analyses with simulated nonlinear influences. Some building codes propose the capacity spectrum method based on the nonlinear static analysis(pushover analysis) to determine the earthquake-induced demand given by the structure pushover curve. These procedures are conceptually simple but iterative and time consuming with some errors. This paper presents a nonlinear direct spectrum method(NDSM) to evaluate seismic performance of structures, without iterative computations, given by the structural initial elastic period and yield strength from the pushover analysis, especially for MDF(multi degree of freedom) systems. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the accuracy and confidence of this method from a point of view of various earthquakes and unloading stiffness degradation parameters. The conclusions of this study are as follows; 1) NDSM is considered as practical method because the peak deformations of nonlinear system of MDF by NDSM are almost equal to the results of nonlinear time history analysis(NTHA) for various ground motions. 2) When the results of NDSM are compared with those of NTHA. mean of errors is the smallest in case of post-yielding stiffness factor 0.1, static force by MAD(modal adaptive distribution) and unloading stiffness degradation factor 0.2~0.3.

Nonlinear aeroelastic characteristics of a two dimensional typical section model with bilinear plunge spring are investigated. Doublet-point method(DPM) is used for the calculation of supersonic unsteady aerodynamic forces which are approximated by using the minimum-state approximation. For nonlinear flutter analysis structural nonlinearity is represented by an asymmetric bilinear spring and is linearized by using the describing function method. The linear and nonlinear flutter analyses indicate that the flutter characteristics are significantly dependent on the frequency ratio. From the nonlinear flutter analysis, various types of limit cycle oscillations are observed in a wide range of air speeds below or above the linear flutter boundary. The nonlinear flutter characteristics and the nonlinear aeroelastic responses are investigated.
