This study analyzes the dynamic response of a floating crane with a cargo considering an elastic boom to evaluate(or for evaluation of) its flexibility effect on their dynamic response. Flexible multibody system dynamics is applied in order to establish a dynamic equation of motion of the multibody system, which consists of flexible and rigid bodies. In addition, a floating reference frame and nodal coordinates are used to model the boom as a flexible body. The study also simulates the coupled surge, pitch, and heave motions of the floating crane carrying the cargo with three degrees of freedom by numerically solving the equation. Finally, the simulation results of the elastic and rigid booms are comparatively analyzed and the effects of the flexible boom are discussed.

터빈 익렬, 펌프 익차, 원형 냉각탑, 치차 등과 같이 동일한 형상이 원주 방향으로 반복되어 있는 순환 대칭 구조물의 진동특성을 유한 요소법을 사용하여 해석하는 경우에 전체구조를 모델링하는 대신에 구조물을 동일한 형상의 부분구조로 분할하여 부분구조 한개만을 모델링하고 분할된 경계에서 적절한 경계조건을 부과하여 진동해석을 수행함으로서 컴퓨터 기억용량을 절감시키고 계산시간을 단축할 수 있는 방법이 널리 사용되고 있다. Orris and Petyt[1]는 부분구조의 양쪽 분할 경계면, 즉 연결 경계상에 있는 절점변위의 상관관계를 복소파동전파식을 이용해서 구하여 부분구조의 감소된 복소강성행렬 및 질량행렬을 만들고 실수부와 허수부를 분리하여 유한요소해석을 수행하는 방법을 제안하였다. 유한요소 프로그램 ANSYS[2]에서는 이와 같은 방법을 사용하고 있다. Thomas[3]는 순회 정규모드를 이용하였고, 참고문헌[4]에서는 순회행렬을 이용하였다. 또한 유한요소 프로그램 MSC/NASTRAN[5]에서는 푸리에 급수를 이용하고 유한요소 절점의 위치 및 변위를 원통 좌표계를 표현하여 순환대칭구조물의 유한요소해석을 수행할 수 있도록 되어있다. 본 논문에서는 순환 대칭구조물의 형상의 주기성과 순환성을 고려하여 이산퓨리에 변환을 이용함으로써 순환대칭구조물의 유한요소진동해석을 체계적으로 저용량의 컴퓨터에서 신속하고 정확하게 수행할 수 있는 방법을 제안하고자 한다.

In this paper, a discrete optimum design program was developed using the refined fuzzy-genetic algorithms based on the genetic algorithms and the fuzzy theory. The optimum design in this study can perform section and shape optimization simultaneously for planar and spatial steel structures. In this paper, the objective function is the weight of steel structures and the constraints are the design limits defined by the design and buckling strengths, displacements, and thicknesses of the member sections. The design variables are the dimensions and coordinates of the steel sections. Design examples are given to show the applicability of the discrete optimum design using the improved fuzzy-genetic algorithms in this study.

The analysis of linear static and free vibration problems of isotropic and laminated composite plates and shells is performed by the improved 9-node shell element with the new strain displacement relationship. In that relationship, the effect of new additional terms between the bending strain and displacement has been investigated in the warping problem. Natural co ordinate based strains, stresses and constitutive equations are used. The assumed natural strain method is used to alleviate both membrane and shear locking behavior from the element. The Lanczos method is employed in the calculation of the eigenvalues of laminated composite structures and the Gauss integration rule is adopted to evaluate the mass matrix. The numerical examples are compared with the analytical solutions to validate the current formulation and the results presented could be useful for the understanding of the behaviour of laminates under free vibration conditions.

The stiffness matrix of circularly curved frame elements including the warping effects is formulated by the solutions of vlasov's differential equations, and the procedure for the elastic static analysis of curved girder systems by the displacement method is presented. The validity of this method has been demonstrated by comparing the analysis results with other solutions. And if the tangential lines of the two frame element axes connected at any nodal point coincide, the transformation to the global coordinate system can be omitted when we analyze the structures consisting of circularly curved elements. The theory introduced in this thesis can be applied with sufficient accuracy to the structures built up with horizontally circular curved frame elements which have closed or open cross sections and are symmetric to the axis perpendicular to the plane of the curvature, such as prestressed concrete box girder bridges.

In this paper, the combined system equation of motion, which can analyze the dynamic interaction between pantograph and catenary system, is derived by adopting absolute nodal coordinates and rigid body coordinates. The analysis results are compared with real experiment data from test running of Korean high-speed train (HSR 350x). In addition, a computation method for the dynamic stress of contact wire is presented using the derived system equation of motion. This method might be good example and significant in that the structural and multibody dynamics model can be unified into one numerical system.

본 논문에서는 해상 크레인과 중량물의 동적 거동을 시뮬레이션하기 위해, 유한 요소 정식화(finite element formulation)를 이용하여 해상 크레인의 붐(boom)을 탄성체로 모델링 하였다. 붐은 3차원 탄성 빔(beam) 요소로 가정하고, 각 요소의 변형에 의한 변위는 형상 함수(shape function)과 절점 좌표(nodal coordinate)를 이용하여 정의하였다. 변형 변위를 이용하여 탄성 붐의 강성 행렬(stiffnes matrix)을 유도하고, 탄성 변위를 포함하는 위치 벡터를 이용하여 질량 행렬을 유도한다. 해상 크레인과 중량물로 이루어진 운동 방정식에 탄성 붐을 포함하여 유연 다물체계(flexible multibody system) 운동 방정식을 구성한다. 외력으로는 선박 유체정역학적 힘, 유체동역학적 힘, wire rope의 장력, 중력 그리고 계류력(mooring force)이 고려되었다. 먼저 요소의 개수를 변경하며 탄성 붐의 동적 거동을 시뮬레이션 하여, 유한 요소 정식화를 이용한 모델링의 타당성을 검증하였다. 그리고 해상 크레인과 중량물의 동적 거동 시뮬레이션에 탄성 붐 모델을 적용하였다.

본 논문에서는 해석영역의 형상변화, 즉 로켓노즐 내열재의 삭마로 인해 야기된 경계 면의 이동을 고려하면서 2차원 비정상 비등방성 재료의 열전달 문제를 해석할 수 있는 수치해석에 대해 기술하였다. 수치해석 알고리즘은 유한요소법이며 열해석시 경계면 이동으로 인한 격자계의 절점 좌표점이 계산과정 동안에 이동하는 변형 가능한 유한요소격자(transformable finite-element grid)를 사용하였다. 본 수치해석기법의 타당성 입증을 위해 극심한 열하중이 부여된 조건하에서 엄밀해가 존재하는 비정상 축대칭문제 및 고체로켓 노즐내열재에 대해 열해석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 수치해는 엄밀해 또는 실험치와 잘 일치함을 보이었다. 여러 가지 복합재로 구성된 내삽노즐 또는 외삽노즐에 대해서도 안정된 수치해를 얻을 수 있었다. 아울러 노즐목삽입재로 탄소-탄소 복합재를 적용한 고체추진기관 내삽노즐을 해석모델로 택하여 열전달 해석을 수행하고 해석결과를 분석하였다. 노즐의 표면산화반응에 대한 열반응상수, 즉 Arrhenius 형태로 표시된 식에서 pre-exponential factor 및 activation energy 변화가 탄소-탄소 복합재 및 탄소-페놀릭 복합재의 삭마량에 미치는 영향에 대해서 고찰하였다.

Nodal displacements are referred to the initial configuration in the total Lagrangian formulation and to the last converged configuration in the updated Lagrangian furmulation. This research proposes a relative nodal displacement method to represent the position and orientation for a node in truss structures. Since the proposed method measures the relative nodal displacements relative to its adjacent nodal reference frame, they are still small for a truss structure undergoing large deformations for the small size elements. As a consequence, element formulations developed under the small deformation assumption are still valid for structures undergoing large deformations, which significantly simplifies the equations of equilibrium. A structural system is represented by a graph to systematically develop the governing equations of equilibrium for general systems. A node and an element are represented by a node and an edge in graph representation, respectively. Closed loops are opened to form a spanning tree by cutting edges. Two computational sequences are defined in the graph representation. One is the forward path sequence that is used to recover the Cartesian nodal displacements from relative nodal displacement sand traverses a graph from the base node towards the terminal nodes. The other is the backward path sequence that is used to recover the nodal forces in the relative coordinate system from the known nodal forces in the absolute coordinate system and traverses from the terminal nodes towards the base node. One open loop and one closed loop structure undergoing large deformations are analyzed to demonstrate the efficiency and validity of the proposed method.

The algorithm proposed utilizes the tow-levels technique. In the first level which consists of teeatment only the applied load and design stress as the random variables whose parent distribution has the normal distribution, the cross-sectional areas of the truss members such that the their probabilities of failure have the preseribed failure probabilites are optimized by transforming the nonlinear problem into SUMT, and solving it utilizing modified Newton-Raphson method. In the second level, the geometric shape of truss structure is optimized by utilizing the unidirectional search technique of Powell method which makes it possible to minimize only the objective function. The algorithm proposed is numerically tested for the several truss structures with various shapes and loading conditions. The numerical analysis shows that the rate of decreasing the weight of truss structures is dependent on the prescribed failure probability of the each member of truss structure and the covariance of the applied load and design stress.
