In the current research, an algorithm of performance-based seismic retrofit design of reinforced concrete columns using FRP jacket has been proposed. For exact prediction of the nonlinear flexural analysis or FRP composite RC members, multiaxial constitutive laws of concrete and composite materials have been presented. For seismic retrofit design, an algorithm of direct displacement-based design method (DDM) proposed by Chopra and Goel (2001) has been newly applied to determine the design thickness of FRP jacket in seismic retrofit of reinforced concrete columns. To compare with the displacement coefficient method (DCM), the DDM gives an accurate prediction of the target displacement in highly nonlinear region, since the DCM uses the elastic stiffness before reaching the yield load as the effective stiffness but the DDM uses the secant stiffness.

This study is the research appling the representative Displacement-Based Design which is the basic concept of Direct Displacement Based Design proposed by Chopra and Goel to original Reinforced Concrete structure and determining the thickness of retrofit Steel Jacket about the Maximum design ground acceleration, and developing the more improved Algorithm as well as program by the Retrofit Design method and Nonlinear analysis by the Performance design method before and after reinforcement appling the determined retrofit thickness. To predict the target displacement of retrofitted columns, a nonlinear analysis model of reinforced concrete columns has been developed to be based on the nonlinear fiber cross-sectional and segmental analysis model, and the seismic displacement level of retrofitted columns is estimated by two procedures, the direct displacement-based design method and the displacement coefficient method. In examples of seismic retrofit design, the current seismic improved design method gives good results in improvements of displacement levels and displacement ductilities of retrofitted columns.

Current torsional provisions focus n restricting torsional effect of asymmetric wall structures by proportioning strength of wall based on the traditional assumption that stiffness and strength are independent. Recent studies have pointed out that stiffness of structural wall is dependent on the strength. This implies that actual stiffness of walls can be determined only after torsional design is finished and current torsional provisions may result in significant errors. To overcome this shortcoming, this paper proposes deformation based torsional design for asymmetric wall structures. Contrary to the current torsional provisions, deformation-based torsional design uses displacement and rotation angle as design parameters and calculates base shear for inelastic torsional response directly. Main purpose of deformation based torsional design is not to restrict torsional response but to ensure intended torsional mechanism according to the capacity design concept. Because displacement and rotation angle can be used as performance criteria indicating performance level of asymmetric structures, this method can be applied to the performance based seismic design effectively.

본 논문은 불확실한 환경에 접촉하는 매니플레이터의 강인 제어법을 제시하였다. 이 제어법은 고차수 보상기를 응용한 표적특성에 $H_{\infty}$ 강인제어 설계법을 적용하여 얻어졌다. 접촉중의 위치와 힘에 대한 강인 안정성과 강인 성능 조건을 유도하였다. 결과에 의하면, 위치제어기는 강인 안정성과 강인 성능 조건을 동시에 향상시킬 수 있으나, 힘 제어기는 그 둘 사이에 최적화가 요구되었다. 강인 성능 제어기를 얻기 위한 최적화 설계기법은 변형 해석 기법을 사용하였으며, 결과의 예를 제시하였다. 이 예에서는 힘제어기의 강인 성능이 설계될 수 있음을 보였다.

The conventional performance-based design method for the solid-wall caisson breakwater has been extended and applied to the perforated-wall caisson. The mathematical model to calculate the sliding distance of a perforated-wall caisson is verified against hydraulic experimental data. The developed performance-based design method is then compared with the conventional deterministic method in different water depths. Both the expected sliding distance and the exceedance percentage of total sliding distance during the structure lifetime decrease with decreasing water depth outside the surf zone, but they increase with decreasing water depth inside the surf zone. The performance-based design method is either more economical or less economical than the deterministic method depending on which design criterion is used. If the criterion for the ultimate limit state is used, the former method is less economical than the latter outside the surf zone, whereas the two methods are equally economical inside the surf zone. However, if the breakwater is designed to satisfy the criterion for the repairable limit state, the former method is more economical than the latter in all water depths.

In this paper, a reliability-based design optimization is developed for the topology design of linear structures using a performance measure approach. Spatial domain is discretized using three dimensional Reissner-Mindlin plate elements and design variable is taken as the material property of each element. A continuum based adjoint variable method is employed for the efficient computation of sensitivity with respect to the design and random variables. The performance measure approach of RBDO is employed to evaluate the probabilistic constraints. The topology optimizationproblem is formulated to have probabilistic displacement constraints. The uncertainties such as material property and external loads are considered. Numerical examples show that the developed topology optimization method could effectively yield a reliable design, comparing with the other methods such as deterministic, safety factor, and worst case approaches.

A procedure for determination of performance point was developed based on the concept of the direct displacement-based design method. Using the proposed procedure, parametric study has been performed for various natural periods of the structure, yield strength, and the stiffness after the first yield. The proposed method was also applied to a 10-story steel frame, and the results were compared to those from the capacity spectrum method and the time history analysis. It was found from the comparison that there were good agreement between the results.

능동 제어기를 설계하기 위해서는 제어대상 구조물의 수학모델의 구해야한다. 그러나, 무한차원의 구조물에 대하여 정확한 모델을 구하는 것은 불가능하므로 유한차원인 저차원화된 모델을 사용하여 제어기를 설계한다. 그러나, 실제 구조물과 저차원화된 모델사이의 오차에 의하여 제어기의 성능이 저하가 되면 제어기와 구조물의 상호작용, 지진과 같은 오란 등의 불확실성, 지진시 구조물의 동적 특성 변화로 인하여 제어기의 성능이 더욱 저하가 된다. 이러한 저하 요인은 제어기 설계시 요구되는 구조물의 수학모델에 대한 불확실한 요소로 작용하기 때문에 제어성능의 저하를 일으키며 응답의 불안정을 유발하기로 한다. 본 연구에서는 질량형 능동제어기(AMD)가 설치된 3층 건물 모형의 모델 오차에 관한 불확실성을 반영한 강인제어기법을 적용하여 제어성능과 안정성을 실험을 통하여 분석하였다. 강인제어 기법인 $\mu$ 합성법에 요구되는 여러 가지 가중함수인 주파수필터는 건물과 AMD의 특성, 모델 오차, 제어율과 AMD 성능의 , 측정잡음 및 지진외란의 특성 등을 고려하여 정량적으로 선택되었다. $\mu$합성법에 의하여 제어기를 설계하였으며 강인성을 비교하기 위하여 불확실성이 고려되지 않는 LQG 기법에 의한 제어기를 선택하였다. $\mu$합성법은 규정된 불확성에 대하여 제어의 강인성을 가지므로 동적특성이 바뀐 건물모형에 관한 강인성을 LQG 기법에 의한 제어성능과 비교하였다. 그 결과 동적특성이 변화된 건물에 대하여 $\mu$합성법만이 제어의 효율성이 유지되는 강인성을 나타내었다.

Probabilistic design methods can consider uncertainties of design variables and are widely used in the design of vertical breakwaters. The probabilistic design methods include a partial safety factor method, reliabilitybased design method, and performance-based design method. Especially the performance-based design method calculates the accumulated sliding distance during the lifetime of the breakwater or during a design storm. Recently a time-dependent performance-based design method has been developed based on the first-passage probability of individual sliding distance during a design storm. However, because the allowable criteria in the first-passage probability method are not established, the stability of structures cannot be quantitatively evaluated. In this study, the allowable first-passage probabilities for two limit states are proposed by calculating the first-passage probabilities for the cross-sections designed with various water depths and characteristics of extreme wave height distributions. The allowable first-passage probabilities are proposed as 5% and 1%, respectively, for the repairable limit state (allowable individual sliding distance of 0.03 m) and ultimate limit state (allowable individual sliding distance of 0.1 m). The proposed criteria are applied to the evaluation of the effect of wave-height increase due to climate change on the stability of the breakwater.
