본 연구는 모래사면의 언덕근처에 설치된 짧은 말뚝의 수평하중의 영향에 관한 것이다. 3차원 탄소성 유한요소법해석과 실내 모형실험의 결과를 비교하였다. 경사 30$^{\circ}$의 사면에 시공된 짧은 말뚝의 특성을 파악하기 위해, 사면언덕에서 모형말뚝까지의 거리를 3종류로 상이하게 하여, 모형실험을 실시하였다. 사용된 모래의 지반특성은 배수조건하의 삼축압축실험으로 결정하였다. 동시에 3차원 탄소성 유한요소법에 의한 수치해석결과와 모형실험결과를 비교하였다. 본 유한요소법의 해석에 있어서 모래지반을 탄성완전소성모델(Elastic-perfectly plastic model)로 가정하여, 파괴기준으로 Mohr-Coulomb 식과 소성 포텐셜에 대해서는 Drucker-Prager 식을 적용한 MC-DP 모델로 하였다. 이러한 MC-DP 모델의 구성식은 유한요소법에서 있어 계산치의 수렴에 유익하다. 3차원 탄소성 유한요소법에 의한 수치해석이 사질토 사면의 언덕 부근에 설치된 단하의 수평거동에 대한 파악에 유효하다는 것을 확인하였다.

To describe hysteretic behavior of steel structures under dynamic loading such as earthquake, the dynamic cyclic plasticity model considering stress-strain relationship and characteristics of used steel materials under static-dynamic deforming is required. In this paper, mechanical characteristics and stress-strain relationship of SM490 was clarified by carrying out static-dynamic monotonic and cyclic loading test. A dynamic cyclic plasticity model of SM490 was proposed based on the test results and applied 3-dimensional finite element analysis using finite deformation theory. An analytical method developed by the authors was verified validity and accuracy by comparing both analysis and test results. The comparison result shows that the analytical method developed by the authors can predict static-dynamic hysteretic behavior of steel structures with accuracy.

기능경사재(FGM)는 구성 물질의 체적분율(volume fraction)이 복합재 전체에 걸쳐 연속적 그리고 기능적으로 분포되어 있어, 기존의 이종물질 접합식(bi-material-type) 복합재보다 현저히 우수한 열기계적 특성을 가진다. 하지만, 기능경사 내열복합재의 열-탄소성 거동은 체적분율의 분포형태와 경사층이 차지하는 상대두께비에 따라 절대적으로 좌우된다. 본 연구는 기능경사 내열복합재의 열-탄소성 특성의 이들 두 설계인자에 대한 파라메트릭 FEM해석을 다룬 것이다. 열-탄소성 이론과 유한요소 근사화에 따라 연구용 2차원 FEM 프로그램을 개발하고, 대표적인 3층 구조의 2차원 기능경사 내열복합재의 열-탄소성 특성을 설계변수의 다양한 조합에 따라 분석하였다.

This paper describes a domain decomposition method of parallel finite element analysis for elasto-plastic structural problems. As a parallel numeral algorithm for the finite element analysis, the authors have utilized the domain decomposition method combined with an iterative solver such as the conjugate gradient method. Here the domain decomposition method algorithm was applied directly to elasto-plastic problem. The present system was successfully applied to three-dimensional elasto-plastic structural problems.

The linear analysis for the balance of linear momentum of a structure is relatively easy to perform, but the error becomes large when the structure experiences large deformation. Therefore, the material and geometric nonlinearity need to be considered for the precise calculations in that case. The plastic flow of a ductile steel-like metal mainly transforms its dissipated mechanical energy into heat, which transfers under the first and second law of thermodynamics. This heat increases the temperature of the material and the strength of the material decreases accordingly, which affects mechanical behavior of the given structure. This paper presents a finite-strain thermo-elasto-plastic steel model. This model can handle large deformation and thermal load simultaneously, which is common during earthquake periods. Two 3-dimensional finite element analyses verify this formulation.

Many transmission towers, high-rise buildings and bridges are constructed near steep slopes and are supported by large-diameter piles. These structures may be subjected to large lateral loads, such as violent winds and earthquakes. Widely used types of foundations for these structures are pier foundations, which have large-diameters with high stiffness. The behavior of a pier foundation subjected to lateral loads is similar to that of a short rigid pile because both elements seem to fail by rotation developing passive resistance on opposite faces above and below the rotation point, unlike the behavior of a long flexible pile. This paper describes the results of several numerical studies performed with a three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) of model tests of a laterally loaded short pile located near slopes, respectively. In this paper, the results of model tests of single piles and pile groups subjected to lateral loading, in homogeneous sand with 30$^{\circ}$ slopes and horizontal ground were analyzed by the 3-D FE analyses. The pile was assumed to be linearly elastic. The sand was assumed to have non-associative characteristics, following the MC-DP model. The failure criterion is governed by the Mohr-Coulomb equation and the plastic potential is given by the Drucker-Prager equation. The main purpose of this paper is the validation of the 3-D elasto-plastic FEM by comparisons with the experimental data.

This paper deals with the three-dimensional finite element analysis of failure behavior of UHPFRC I-beam under monotonic load. Different from the constitutive law of normal and high strength concrete, an elastic-plastic fracture model that considers the tensile strain hardening is proposed to describe the material properties of UHPFRC. A multi-directional fixed crack criterion with tensile strain hardening is defined in the tensile region, and Drucker-Prager criterion with an associated flow rule is adopted in the compressive region. The influence of span, prestressing force and section on the behavior of UHPFRC I-beam are investigated. The comparison of the numerical results with the test results indicates a good agreement.

This paper presents the results of 2D and 3D finite element simulations conducted to analyze the effects of excavation depth (H), excavation width (L), and ground condition on the behavior of anchored earth retaining wall in inclined ground layers. The results of numerical analyses are compared with those of the site instrumentation analyses. Based on the results obtained, it appeared that 2D numerical analysis tends to overestimate the horizontal displacement of retaining wall compared to the 3D numerical analysis. When the excavation depth is deeper than 20m, it is found that 2D and 3D numerical analysis results of excavation work in soil ground condition are more different from the results in rock ground condition. For an accurate 3D numerical analysis, applying 3D mesh which has an excavation width twice longer than excavation depth is recommended. Consequently, 3D numerical analysis may be able to offer significantly better predictions of movement than 2D analysis.
