The dynamic behaviour of the rock mass under the dynamic load is different from the static application of the maximum load of the same size. An experimental approach to investigating rock behavior under dynamic loads is more difficult than that under static conditions in control of dynamic loads, measurement and analysis of the results. Numerical methods are less constrained by performing the experiments numerically, rather than experimental ones, so they can be very powerful analytical tool at the design stage. However, even if the algorithms of the analysis method are appropriate, careful analysis is required because the calculation results may vary largely depending on input data and boundary conditions. In this paper, when investigating the behavior of rock structures under dynamic load numerically, the effects of boundary conditions, dynamic load and calculation time step, and dynamic load characteristics on the calculation results were reviewed to provide guidance on setting up boundary conditions and calculation time step related to dynamic analysis.

The structural load analysis of 50m class airship was performed. The airship maneuver condition for analysis was defined. Aerodynamic, inertia and buoyance models were built. Control surface motion to make defined maneuver condition were calculated. Load factors, load, shear and bending moment envelops were developed for full airship and tailwing. Gondola design loads were developed.

This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation on the load carrying capacity and consolidation behavior of suction piles. Three dimensional numerical models which reflect realistic ground conditions and installation procedures including the ground-suction pile interface were adopted to conduct a parametric study on variables such as the length-diameter ratio and the loading configurations, i.e, vertical, horizontal, and combined loads. The results indicated that the load carrying capacity of a suction pile can only be realistically obtained when the interface behavior between the suction pile and the ground is correctly modeled. Also carried out was the stress-pore pressure coupled analysis to investigate the consolidation behavior of the suction pile after the application of a vertical loading. Based on the results, failure envelops and associated equations were developed, which can be used to estimate load carrying capacity of suction piles installed in similar conditions considered in this study. The results of consolidation analysis based on the stress-pore pressure coupled analysis indicate that no significant excess pore pressure and associated consolidation settlement occur for the loading configuration considered in part due to the load transfer mechanism of the suction pile.

The current load combination criteria for design of nuclear power plant structures(NPP) are not based on the probability-based design concept but rely on the conventional design concept. In this paper, a load combination criteria for design of NPP containment structures are proposed based on a FEM-based random vibration analysis. More accurate reliability analyses under various dynamic loads such as earthquake loads were made possible by incorporating the FEM and random vibration theory, which is different from the conventional reliability analysis method, In this paper, the toad factors for the design of NPP structures in Korea are proposed by considering appropriate load combination criteria for design.

An axisymmetric shell element which includes the effects of the meridional and circumferential cable prestresses is developed. It is coded for personal computer by the maximum use of axisymmetic properties and the dynamic analysis is performed under the seismic exitations. A ring element is used to fully utilize the characteristics of the axisymmetric shell. The eigenvalue solutions using 20 elements under the initial prestresses are in good agreement with the exact solutions. The results of the seismic analysis show that the radial deflection under the meridional prestress is a little larger than that under the circumferential prestress. The finite element model developed in this study can be very useful to the design applications.

본 연구에서는 실린더 형 쉘 구조물의 구조적 안정성에 대하여 해석 하였다. 임계하중은 하중을 점차적으로 증가 하여 구조물이 파괴가 발생 할 때의 상태에서 가장 작은 하중을 의미한다. 셀 구조의 안정성을 임계하중의 크기로 기초를 두고 해석 하였다. 실린더 형 쉘의 차분해석은 일차적 원통형 판구조와 같으므로 최근에 많은 연구의 대상이 되어왔다. 차분법은 복잡한 구조물에서도 물론, 다양한 경계조건을 포함하는 문제에 이르기까지 효과적인 수치방법이다. 본 연구에서는 기본 쉘의 지배방정식을 유도하고 차분화 하여 직접적으로 접근하였다. 등분포 하중의 내압을 받고 있는 갇힌 실린더 형 쉘의 처짐 및 응력을 해석 하였다. 수치해석 결과를 해석해와 비교 검토하였으며 안정성에 대하여 임계 하중강도의 범위를 산출하였다.

철도교는 도로교와 달리 하중조건이 매우 다양하고 복잡하다. 특히 열차에 관계된 하중들은 일반적인 모델링에 대해 하중을 재하하기가 까다로울 뿐만 아니라, 그 해석 결과를 실 구조물의 설계에 반영하기에는 많은 논란이 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 철도교의 설계시 사용되는 열차에 관계된 하중들의 산정방법과 구조해석 모델링에 이러한 하중들을 재하하는 방법의 변화에 따른 구조해석 결과를 비교, 검토함으로써, 앞으로 수행되는 철도교의 설계에 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다.(중략)

In general, the response spectrum analysis method (R.S.A) is widely used for seismic analysis of building structure. But, it is not common to apply R.S.A for the analysis of structural vibration caused by dynamic loads of equipments, machines and moving leads, etc. The time history analysis method(T.H.A) for the vibration analysis, compared with R.S.A, is very complex, difficult and time consuming. So the application of R.S.A, that is convenient to calculate maximum responses for structural vibration, is proposed in this study. At first, the procedure for the application of the R.S.A to calculate of the maximum vibration response induced by dynamic load applied on the single point is described. And then, the process, which can save the time and the memory for calculation of the maximum vibration response induced by dynamic loads on the multi-point is proposed, and the maximum structural response caused by moving loads are obtained. Lastly, the accuracy of the proposed method is verified by comparing the results of R.S.A to T.H.A for some example models.

To study the behavior of structures subject to blast loads it is important to calculate the loads due to the explosives accurately, especially in the case of interior explosions. It is known that numerical method based on computational fluid dynamics can estimate relatively accurate blast load due to the interior explosion including reflection effect. However, the numerical method has disadvantages that it is difficult to model the analysis and it takes much time to analyze it. Therefore, in this study, the analytical method which can include the reflection effect of the interior explosion was studied. The target structures were set as the slabs of residential buildings subject to interior explosion that could lead to massive casualties and progressive collapses. First, the numerical method is used to investigate the interior explosion effect and the maximum deflection of the slab which was assumed to be elastic, and compared with the analytical method proposed in this study. In the proposed analytical method, we determine the weighting factor of the reflection effect using the beam theory so that the explosion load calculation method becomes more accurate.
