In this study, the concepts and procedures of the seismic damage analysis methods are examined for both the element-level and the system-level. The seismic damage analysis at the element-level is performed for several example structures using existing method for structural elements or single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems such as the Park and Ang method. In order to analyze seismic damage at the system-level, two types of procedures are used. In the first type of procedure, the system-level seismic responses can be estimated by using the system representative response method(SRRM), or the equivalent SDOF system response method (ESDOF-SRM). Then, the system-level seismic damage is analyzed from the system-level seismic responses using existing method for structural elements or SDOF systems. IN the second type of procedure, the system-level seismic damages are analyzed using the element damage combination method (EDCM) combing the element-level damage indices determined by existing method. To compare tendency of the seismic damage analysis using each methods, example analysis is accomplished for several cases of different structures and different earthquake excitation.

열탄성 부영역, 열탄점소성/손상 부영역, 공유면, 접촉 공유면에 기반을 둔 영역/경계 분할법을 적용하여 재료 비선형성을 갖는 열탄점소성 손상 문제와 경계 비선형성을 갖는 접촉 문제의 효율적인 해석을 제안하였다. 영역 및 경계 분할에 관련된 공유면 및 접촉 공유면에서의 연속 구속 조건을 처리하기 위하여 간단한 벌칙 함수 기법을 적용하였다. 결과적으로 재료 및 경계 비선형성은 소수의 부영역과 접촉 경계면에서 계산되는 유한요소 행렬들에 국한된다. 따라서 적절한 해석 알고리듬을 구성하면 대폭적인 효율성 향상이 가능하게 된다. 대변형과 같은 기하학적 비선형성은 고려하지 않았으며, 간단한 수치 실험을 통해서 열탄점소성 손상 및 접촉 해석의 효율성에 관련된 기본적인 특성을 분석하였다.

The damage tolerance analysis is required to guarantee the structural safety and the reliability for aircraft components. The damage tolerance method, which evaluate the life considering the initial crack, considers a fatigue design model of the aircraft main structure. The fatigue crack growth life should be calculated in damage tolerance analysis and the inspection time to define the replacement cycle. In this paper, the damage tolerance analysis is performed for a turbine wheel which has complex geometry. The equation of the stress intensity factor for complex geometry is hard to know, so that they are usually processed by finite element analysis which takes long time. To solve this problem, the stress intensity factors at specified crack are obtained by the FEA and the crack growth life is evaluated using the surrogate model which is generated by the regression analysis of the FEA data. From the results, the efficiency of the crack growth life calculation and the damage tolerance analysis could be increased by taking the surrogate model.

The objective of this study is to develop a damage model based on damage mechanics that can be used to analyze the mechanical behavior of structures with defects and the global behavior of damaged structures. A modified second order damage tensor that can be applied to finite element analysis is used to reflect the effect of damage. The damage stress computed from the effective stress is considered as an additional loading term acting on nodes and can represent the effect of crack surface. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm is verified by comparing the analysis results with the experimental data from other studies and the analysis results based on transverse isotropic theory. The developed damage model is applied to the analyses of structures with cracks under linear elastic condition. The comparisons confirmed that the quantitative analysis of the structural behavior due to crack orientation and multiple sets of cracks is possible. Also, the damage caused by rock excavation and fault zone is analyzed. The results also showed that the developed model can effectively analyze the global behavior of damaged structures.

The blast damage behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) structures exposed to unexpected extreme loading was investigated. To enhance the accuracy of numerical simulation for blast loading on RC structures with seven blast points, the calculation of blast loads using the Euler-flux-corrected-transport method, the proposed Euler-Lagrange coupling method for fluid-structure interaction, and the concrete dynamic damage constitutive model including the strain rate-dependent strength and failure models was implemented in the ANSYS-AUTODYN solver. In the analysis results, in the case of 20 kg TNT, only the slab member at three blast points showed moderate and light damage. In the case of 100 kg TNT, the slab and girder members at three blast points showed moderate damage, while the slab member at two blast points showed severe damage.

화재에 의해 손상을 입은 압력용기에 대해 유한요소법을 이용하여 응력해석을 수행하여 아래와 같은 결론을 얻었다. (1) 응력해석 결과, 압력용기의 자중, 열응력 및 바람의 영향은 내부압력에 비해 무시할 수 있을 정도로 미미하였다. (2) 기하학적 형상변화가 발생한 손상용기의 손상 부위에서의 부식 전\ulcorner후에서의 안전계수는 각각 3.5와 2.1로 손상이 없는 단순용기의 6.3과 4.6보다 상당히 작음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 손상 부위에서의 적절한 보강이 이루어져야 할 것이다. (3) 원형 링과 수직 보조대로 보강된 보강용기 모형의 등가 응력값은 상당히 감소되어 화재로 발생한 기하학적 형상 변화에 따른 응력 집중을 줄일 수 있었다. 앞서 정의된 안전계수를 이용 하면 부식 전의 안전계수는 5.3, 부식 후는 3.8 이상으로 증가하였다. (4) 안전계수는 운전 중의 부식 진행과 더불어 두께에 반비례하여 감소하므로, 운전중 부식의 진행을 억제 또는 최소화할 수 있는 방법이 강구되어야 하겠다. (5) 복구방안으로 본 연구에서 해석된 보강책을 채택하는 경우, 작업시 보조대 주위에서의 잔류 응력이 발생되지 않도록 특히 유의해야 하며, 복구 작업 후 철저한 시험검사(비파괴 검사, 스트 레인 측정)가 수반되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Damage location and extent of structure could be detected by the inverse analysis on dynamic response properties such as frequencies and mode shapes. The dynamic response of building structures has many noise and affected by nonstructural members and, above all, the behavior of building structure is more complex than civil structure and this makes the damage detection difficult. In recent researches the damage is detected by the indirect index such as sensitivity or assumed values. However, for the more reasonable damage detection, it needs to use the damage index directly induced from dynamic equation. The purpose of this study is to provide the damage detection method on shear building structures by the damage index directly induced from dynamic equation. The provided damage index could be estimated from measured mode shape of undamaged structure and frequency difference between undamaged and damaged structure. The damage detection method is applied to numerical analysis model such as MATLAB and MIDAS GENw for the verification. The damage index at damaged story represents (-) sign and 15 times than other undamaged sories.

In a performance-based design, the structural safety is estimated from pre-defined damage states and corresponding damage indices. Both damage states and damage indices are well defined for above-ground structures, but very limited studies have been performed on underground structures. In this study, we define the damage states and damage indices of a cut-and-cover box tunnel which is one of typical structures used in metro systems, under a seismic excitation from a series of inelastic frame analyses. Three damage states are defined in terms of the number of plastic hinges that develop within the structure. The damage index is defined as the ratio of the elastic moment to the yield moment. Through use of the proposed index, the inelastic behavior and failure mechanism of box tunnels can be simulated and predicted through elastic analysis. In addition, the damage indices are linked to free-field shear strains. Because the free-field shear strain can be easily calculated from a 1D site response analysis, the proposed method can be readily used in practice. Further studies are needed to determine the range of shear strains and associated uncertainties for various types of tunnels and site profiles. However, the inter-linked platform of damage state - damage index - shear wave velocity - shear strain provides a novel approach for estimating the inelastic response of tunnels, and can be widely used in practice for seismic designs.
