Since the subpanels of polygonal-section shell have the corners of an obtuse angle larger than 90 degree unlike general plate or box-section structures, this could have an influence on forming nodal lines against local plate buckling or stress distributions. However, there is not sufficient material in the relevant study results or design recommendations. The very feasible models of the initial imperfections were acquired through the literature studies and then the parametric studies were conducted along with the initial imperfection models by using the finite element method. The parameters like the size of residual stresses, the portion of compressive residual stresses, and steel grades were considered. From the parametric studies, it was found that the maximum residual stress is more influential factor than the distribution pattern of residual stresses. In addition, The design strength equations for the simply supported plates can be applicable to the determination of the local buckling strength of the polygonal cross-section shell structures.

Free vibration and buckling analysis of multi-delaminated composite beam-columns subjected to axial compressive load is performed in the present study In order to investigate the effects of multi-delaminations on the natural frequency and the elastic buckling load of multi-delaminated beam-columns, the general kinematic continuity conditions are derived from the assumption of constant slope and curvature at the multi-dclamination tip. The characteristic equation of multi-delaminated beam-column is obtained by dividing the global multi-delauunated beam-columns into segments and by imposing recurrence relation from the continuity conditions on each sub-beam-column. The natural frequency and the elastic buck)ing load of multi-delaminated beam-columns according to the incremental load of axial compression, which is limited to the maximum elastic buckling load of sound laminated beam-column, are obtained. It is found that the sizes, locations and numbers of multi-delaminations have significant effect on natural frequency and elastic buckling load, especially the latter ones.

This paper describes dynamic characteristics of a power transmission tower consisting of lots of power lines and insulators. A numerical 3D modeling for the static, dynamic and buckling analyses of the power transmission tower is presented considering the case when the power lines are cut. Eigenvalue analysis indicates that the transmission tower shows different behavior comparing to usual structures governed by several low modes. The transmission tower is governed by lots of modes. It is verified that the transmission tower is structurally safe against the static wind and buckling loads. But the structural and buckling safety is not guaranteed when all power lines are cut, which comes to collapse the transmission tower. Further study is in need to overcome such case. Wind dynamic analysis shows that fluctuating wind loads increase the response of the tower.

The conventional brace system is generally accepted as the lateral load resisting system for steel structures due to efficient story drift control and economic feasibility. But lateral stiffness of the structure decreases when buckling happens to the brace in compression, so that it results in unstable structure with unstable hysteresis behavior through strength deterioration. Buckling restrained brace(BRB) system, in which steel core is confined by mortar/concrete-filled tube, represents stable behavior in the post-yield range because the core's buckling is restrained. So, seismic performance of BRB is much better than that of conventional brace system in point of energy absorption capacity, and it is applied the most in high seismicity regions as damper element. BRBs with various shaped-sections have been developed across the globe, but the shapes experimented in Korea are now quite limited. In this study, we considered built-up type of restraining member made up of precast reinforcement concrete and the steel core. we experimented the BRB according to AISC(2005) and evaluated seismic performances and hysteresis characteristics.

In an effort to construct a structure under the design principle of minimal use of materials for maximum performances, a discrete gradient structure has been introduced in laminate composite systems. Using a sequential linear programming method, the gradient structure of composites to maximize the buckling load was optimized in terms of fiber volume fraction and thickness of each layer. The buckling load showed maximum value with the outmost [$0^{\circ}$] layer concentrated by almost all the fibers when the ratio of length to width(aspect ratio) was less than 1.0. But when the aspect ratio was 2.0, the optimum was determined in a structure where the thickness and fiber volume fraction were well-balanced in each layer. From the optimization of gradient structure, the optimal fiber volume fraction and thickness of each layer were proposed. Gradient structures have also shown an advantage in the weight reduction of composites compared with the conventional homogeneous structures.

The structural system that discreterized continuous shells is frequently used to make dome-type structures and these structures show the unstable phenomena by snap-through or bifurcation when a load level reaches certain critical value. The characteristic structural behaviour of a cable dome shows a strong nonlinearity and very sensitive according to the initial imperfection. In this study the shape finding problem by applying initial tension stress is investigated and using this the unstable phenomena of perfectly shaped and initially imperfected shape model by external forces are examined to grasp the unstable behavior of cable dome using the Geiger-type model.

최근 변단면 거더의 경제성을 고려하여 장경간 거더 교량과 강골조 구조물에 변단면보의 사용이 증가하고 있으며, 고강도 강의 등장으로 인해 변단면보의 정확한 좌굴 강도의 평가가 매우 중요시 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존에 연구된 탄성 횡-비틀림 좌굴 강도에 관한 연구를 바탕으로하여 별로 비탄성 구간에 비지지 길이가 존재하는 일축대칭 I형 변단면보의 횡-비틀림 좌굴 강도 해석을 실시하였다. 해석에는 유한요소해석프로그램인 ABAQUS(2007)가 사용되었으며, MINITAB(2006)을 이용하여 간편한 설계식을 제안하고 있다. 일단 계단식 단면을 가지는 보에 대하여 고려하였으며, 플랜지 길이 방향 비, 너비방향 비, 두께의 비로 계단식 I형 보를 나타내었다. 집중 하중을 적용시켰으며 비선형 해석을 위해 잔류응력 및 초기변형과 재료비선형을 고려하였다. 본 연구 결과에서 제안된 식은 향후 다양한 하중이 작용하는 비탄성 횡-비틀림 좌굴 강도에 대한 연구에 많은 도움이 될 것이다.

압축을 받는 판 구조의 경제적인 단면 보강을 위해 종방향 보강재인 U형 단면 리브를 적용하는 것이 효과적이나, 현재 국내에서는 명확한 설계지침이나 연구자료가 제시되지 못하고 있다. 따라서 U리브의 적정 크기 및 최적 간격에 대해 검토 후 이에 관한 지침이 제시될 필요성이 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 U리브의 단면 크기 및 강성에 따른 탄성좌굴강도 및 좌굴모드의 변화를 알아보고자 한다. 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 이용하여 고유치 해석을 실시하였고, 이론값과 해석적 결과의 탄성좌굴강도를 비교하였다. 이러한 분석 결과를 토대로 향후 U리브의 최소소요강성 및 단면 선정방안을 제시하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
