본 연구의 목적은 H-Pile과 벽체가 합성하여 거동하는 합성 지하벽의 내력 및 구조적 거동을 해석적으로 파악하고 구조성능을 평가하여 다양한 형태의 응력조건에 대한 거동예측 방법을 제시하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 유한요소 범용 프로그램인 ATENA를 이용하여 H-Pile, 콘크리트 벽체, 스터드볼트 연결부 등에 대한 모델링방법을 설정하고 기 실험된 합성지하벽 실험체들에 대한 비선형 해석을 실시하였다. H-Pile과 콘크리트 벽체를 연결하는 스터드볼트에 의해 전달되는 전단 및 축응력을 접촉면 요소로 모델링하여 비선형 해석을 실시한 결과, 비록 초기강성은 해석결과가 다소 높게 나타났지만, 실험결과와 해석결과가 좋은 대응을 보이는 것으로 나타났다.

The presence of infill generally neglected in design despite the fact that infill contribution significantly increase the lateral stiffness and strength of the reinforced concrete frame structure. Several experimental studies and computational models have been proposed to capture the rational response of infill-frame interaction at global level. However, limited studies are available on explicit finite element modelling to study the local behavior due to high computation and convergence issues in numerical modelling. In the current study, the computational modelling of RC frames is done with various configurations of infill masonry in terms of types of blocks, lateral loading and reinforcement detailing employed with material nonlinearities, interface contact issues and bond-slip phenomenon particularly near the beam-column joints. To this end, extensive computational modelling of five variant characteristics test specimens extracted from the detailed experimental program available in literature and process through nonlinear static analysis in FEM code, ATENA generally used to capture the nonlinear response of reinforced concrete structures. Results are presented in terms of damage patterns and capacity curves by employing the finest possible detail provided in the experimental program. Comparative analysis shows that good correlation amongst the experimental and numerical simulated results both in terms of capacity and crack patterns.

횡방향 철근이 없는 RC와 PSC 보에서 축방향 인장력은 전단강도를 감소시키고, 축압축력은 전단저항력을 증가시킨다는 것은 잘 알려진 사실이다. 그러나 축력이 전단에 얼마만큼 영향을 미치고, 전단 저항성능에 어떠한 영향을 주는가에 대한 이해가 부족한 현실이다. 횡방향 보강철근이 없는 부재가 큰 압축력과 전단력을 받으면 첫 번째 경사균열이 일어나면서 그대로 취성파괴가 발생하기 때문에 상당히 보수적 관점을 유지하고 있다. 이런 배경에서 ACI의 복부전단강도는 경사균열각 ${\theta}$를 $45^{\circ}$로 하는 트러스모델을 사용하여 스터럽의 수직력과 축력효과를 반영하고 있다. 본 연구는 파괴역학을 근간으로 한 비선형 유한요소해석 프로그램 ATENA-2D (Cervenka, 2000)를 사용하여 철근콘크리트 보의 축력작용에 따른 검증을 수행한 것이다.

Many authors have established the usefulness of concrete filled steel tubular (CFST) sections as compression members while few have proved their utility as flexural members. To explore their prospective as part of CFST frame structures, two types of connections using extended end plate and seat angle are proposed for exterior joints of CFST beams and CFST columns. To investigate the performance and failure modes of the proposed bolted connections subjected to static loads, an experimental program has been executed involving ten specimens of exterior beam-to-column joints subjected to monotonically increasing load applied at the tip of beam, the performance is appraised in terms of load deformation behaviour of joints. The test parameters varied are the beam section type, type and diameter of bolts. To validate the experimental behaviour of the proposed connections in CFST beam-column joints, finite element analysis for the applied load has been performed using software ATENA-3D and the results of the proposed models are compared with experimental results. The experimental results obtained agree that the proposed CFST beam-column connections perform in a semi-rigid and partial strength mode as per specification of EC3.

The lack of experimental studies on the mechanical behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) haunched beams leads to difficulties in statistical and reliability analyses. This study performs stochastic and reliability analyses of the ultimate shear capacity of RC haunched beams based on nonlinear finite element analysis. The main aim of this study is to investigate the influence of uncertainty in material properties and geometry parameters on the mechanical performance and shear capacity of RC haunched beams. Firstly, 65 experimentally tested RC haunched beams and prismatic beams are analyzed via deterministic nonlinear finite element method by a special program (ATENA) to verify the efficiency of utilized numerical models, the shear capacity and the crack pattern. The accuracy of nonlinear finite element analyses is verified by comparing the results of nonlinear finite element and experiments and both results are found to be in a good agreement. Afterwards, stochastic analyses are performed for each beam where the RC material properties and geometry parameters are assigned to take probabilistic values using an advanced simulating procedure. As a result of stochastic analysis, statistical parameters are determined. The statistical parameters are obtained for resistance bias factor and the coefficient of variation which were found to be equal to 1.053 and 0.137 respectively. Finally, reliability analyses are accomplished using the limit state functions of ACI-318 and ASCE-7 depending on the calculated statistical parameters. The results show that the RC haunched beams have higher sensitivity and riskiness than the RC prismatic beams.

This paper investigates the shear behavior of reinforced concrete haunched beams (RCHBs) without stirrups. The research objective is to study the effectiveness of the ideal steel fiber (SF) ratio, which is used to resist shear strength, besides the influence of main steel reinforcement, compressive strength, and inclination angles of the haunched beam. The modeling and analysis were carried out by Finite Element Method (FE) based on a software package, called Atena-GiD 3D. The program of this study comprises two-part. One of them consists of nine results of experimental SF RCHBs which are used to identify the accuracy of FE models. The other part comprises 81 FE models, which are divided into three groups. Each group differed from another group by the area of main steel reinforcement (A_s) which are 226, 339, and 509 mm². The other parameters which are considered in each group in the same quantities to study the effectiveness of them, were steel fiber volumetric ratios (0.0, 0.5, and 1.0)%, compressive strength (20.0, 40.0, 60.0) MPa, and the inclination angle of haunched beam (0.0°, 10.0°, and 15.0°). Moreover, the parametric analysis was carried out on SF RCHBs to clarify the effectiveness of each parameter on the mechanical behavior of SF RCHBs. The results show that the correlation coefficient (R²) between shear load capacities of FE proposed models and shear load capacities of experimental SF RCHBs is 0.9793, while the effective inclination angle of the haunched beam is 10° which contributes to resisting shear strength, besides the ideal ratio of steel fibers is 1% when the compressive strength of SF RCHBs is more than 20 MPa.
