The direct displacement based design (DDBD) approach is spreading in the field of seismic design for many types of structures. This paper is carried out to present a robust approach for the DDBD procedure for single degree of freedom (SDOF) concentrically braced frames (CBFs). Special attention is paid to the choice of an equivalent viscous damping (EVD) model that represents the behaviour of a series of full scale shake table tests. The performance of the DDBD methodology of the CBFs is verified by two ways. Firstly, by comparing the DDBD results with a series of full-scale shake table tests. Secondly, by comparing the DDBD results with a quantified nonlinear time history analysis (NLTHA). It is found that the DDBD works relatively well and could predict the base shear forces ($F_b$) and the required brace cross sectional sizes of the actual values obtained from shake table tests and NLTHA. In other words, when comparing the ratio of $F_b$ estimated from the DDBD to the measured values in shake table tests, the mean and coefficient of variation ($C_V$) are found to be 1.09 and 0.12, respectively. Moreover, the mean and $C_V$ of the ratios of $F_b$ estimated from the DDBD to the values obtained from NLTHA are found to be 1.03 and 0.12, respectively. Thus, the DDBD methodology presented in this paper has been shown to give accurate and reliable results.

기도에 존재하는 섬모는 인체의 방어기전으로서 중요한 역할을 하며 섬모운동의 장애는 여러 가지 기도질환을 유도하는 원인이 된다. 본 연구에서는 기도 내 섬모의 운동을 생채 내에서 측정할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하여 섬모 운동 주파수(ciliary beat frequency, CBF)를 autoregressive(AR) 스펙트럼 분석을 통하여 정량화하였다. 생체 내에서 운동하고 있는 섬모의 주파수를 측정하기 위해서 레이저와 광섬유 프루브를 사용하는 광전신호(photoelectric signal)방법을 응용하였다. 섬모운동에 의해 산란된 레이저 빛은 광섬유 프루브에 의해 탐지되어 포토 다이오드에서 전기적인 신호로 전환된다. 시리얼 통신을 통하여 PC로 전송된 디지털 섬모운동 신호는 화면에 디스플레이 되며 AR 스펙트럼 방법에 의해 실시간으로 CBF가 결정될 수 있다. 인체의 비강 중비갑개 전단부(anterior end of middle turbinate)에서 직접적으로 프루브를 적용하여 획득된 신호를 분석하였다. 8명의 정상인에 대하여 분석한 결과 CBF는 5에서 10Hz 사이에서 분포했으며 평균적으로 7.3$\pm$1.1Hz 값을 나타냈다. 이는 현재까지 알려진 CBF 값과 유사한 결과이며 측정된 값들의 표준편차도 또한 보고된 결과와 유사한 양상을 나타냈다. 본 연구 결과는 약물에 대한 섬모운동의 영향 및 질별 발달 과정에서의 섬모 운동의 변화 분석 등의 임상 연구에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Near field ground motions have caused several structural damages in recent decades. As a result, seismic codes are being updated with related requirements. In this paper a comparative study on the seismic behavior of concentrically braced frames (CBFs) designed based on different seismic codes is performed. Reliability of various frames with different heights and bracing types are analyzed based on the results of "Incremental Dynamic Analysis" (IDA) under near field ground motions. Fragility curves corresponding to IO (Immediate Occupancy) and CP (Collapse Prevention) limit states are extracted based on IDA curves. Results imply that, frames designed based on the near field seismic design criteria of UBC-97 are more reliable under near field ground motions and their failure probability is less comparing to others.

According to the automated manufacturing processes followed by the development of computer manufacturing technologies, products or quality characteristics produced on the processes have measured and recorded automatically. Much amount of data daily produced on the processes may not be efficiently analyzed by current statistical methodologies (i.e., statistical quality control and statistical process control methodologies) because of the dimensionality associated with many input and response variables. Although a number of statistical methods to handle this situation, there is room for improvement. In order to overcome this limitation, we integrated data mining and robust design approach in this research. We find efficiently the significant input variables that connected with the interesting response variables by using the data mining technique. And we find the optimum operating condition of process by using RSM and robust design approach.

In this study, the susceptibility of different symmetric steel buildings with dual frame system to Progressive Collapse (PC) was assessed. Some ten-story dual frame systems with different type of braced frames (concentrically and eccentrically braced frames) were considered. In addition, numbers and locations of braced bays were investigated (two and three braced bays in exterior frames) to quantitatively find out its effect on PC resistance. An Alternate Path Method (APM) with a linear static analysis was carried out based on General Services Administration (GSA 2003) guidelines. Maximum Demand Capacity Ratio (DCR) for the elements (beams and columns) with highest DCRs ($DCR_{moment}$ and $DCR_{shear}$) is given in tables. The results showed that the three braced bays with concentric braced frames especially X-braced and inverted V-braced frame systems had a lower susceptibility and greater resistance to PC. Also, the results represented that the beams were more critical than columns against PC after the removal of column.

Despite the high lateral stiffness and strength of the Concentrically Braced Frame (CBF), due to the buckling of its diagonal members, it is not a suitable system in high seismic regions. Among the offered methods to overcome the shortcoming, utilizing a metallic damper is considered as an appropriate idea to enhance the behavior of Concentrically Braced Frames (CBFs). Therefore, in this paper, an innovative steel damper is proposed, which is investigated experimentally and numerically. Moreover, a parametrical study was carried out to evaluate the effect of the mechanism (shear, shear-flexural, and flexural) considering buckling mode (elastic, inelastic, and plastic) on the behavior of the damper. Besides, the necessary formulas based on the parametrical study were presented to predict the behavior of the damper that they showed good agreement with finite element (FE) results. Both experimental and numerical results confirmed that dampers with the shear mechanism in all buckling modes have a better performance than other dampers. Accordingly, the FE results indicated that the shear damper has greater ultimate strength than the flexural damper by 32%, 31%, and 56%, respectively, for plates with elastic, inelastic, and plastic buckling modes. Also, the shear damper has a greater stiffness than the flexural damper by 43%, 26%, and 53%, respectively, for dampers with elastic, inelastic, and plastic buckling modes.

Despite the considerable lateral stiffness and strength of the Concentrically Braced Frame (CBF), it suffers from low ductility and low seismic dissipating energy capacity. The buckling of the diagonal members of the CBF systems under cyclic loading ended up to the shortcoming against seismic loading. Comprehensive researches have been performing to achieve helpful approaches to prevent the buckling of the diagonal member. Among the recommended ideas, metallic damper revealed a better success than other ideas to enhance the behavior of CBFs. While metallic dampers improve the behavior of the CBF system, they increase constructional costs. Therefore, in this paper, a new steel damper with flexural mechanism is proposed, which is investigated experimentally and numerically. Also, a parametrical revision was carried out to evaluate the effect of thickness, slenderness ratio, angle of the main plate, and height of the main plates on the proposed damper. For the parametrical study, 45 finite element models were analyzed and considered. Experimental results, as well as the numerical results, indicated that the proposed damper enjoys a stable hysteresis loop without any degradation up to a high rotation equal to around 31% that is significantly considerable. Moreover, it showed a suitable performance in case of ductility and energy dissipating. Besides, the necessary formulas to design the damper, the required relations were proposed to design the elements outside the damper to ensure the damper acts as a ductile fuse.
