This paper deals with a hydroelastic vibration analysis of two rectangular plates partially coupled with a liquid, which is bounded by two plates and two rigid side walls. The wet displacement of each plate is assumed to be a combination of the modal functions of a dry uniform beam with a clamped boundary condition. As the liquid is assumed to be an ideal liquid, the displacement potential satisfying the Laplace equation is determined so that the liquid boundary conditions can meet the requirements at the rigid surfaces and the free liquid surface. The wet dynamic modal functions of each plate are expanded by using the finite Fourier transform to obtain an appropriate form of the compatibility requirement along the contacting surfaces between the plates and the liquid. The liquid-coupled natural frequencies of the plates are derived by using the Rayleigh-Ritz method. Finite element analyses using commercial software are carried out to verify the proposed theory. It is observed that the theoretical method agrees excellently with the three-dimensional finite element analyses results. The effects of the liquid depth and the liquid thickness on the normalized natural frequencies are investigated to identify the dynamic characteristics of the liquid coupled system.

Coupled porous curved beams, due to their low weight and high flexibility, have many applications in engineering. This study investigates the vibration behavior of coupled porous curved beams in different boundary conditions. The system consists of two curved beams connected by a mid-layer of elastic springs. These beams are made of various materials, such as homogenous steel foam, and composite materials with PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) and SWCNT (single-walled carbon nanotube) used as the matrix and nanofillers, respectively. To obtain equivalent material properties, the role of mixture (RoM) was employed, followed by the implementation of the porosity function. The system's governing equations were obtained by employing FSDT and Hamilton's law. To investigate thermal vibration, temperature was implemented as a load in the governing equations. The GDQ method was used to solve these equations. To demonstrate the applicability of the GDQ method in calculating the frequencies of the system and the correctness of the developed program, a validation study was conducted. After validation, numerous examples were presented to investigate the behavior of single and coupled curved beams in various material properties and boundary conditions. The results indicate that the frequencies of the curved beams and the system depend highly on the amount of porosity (n) and the distribution pattern. The system frequencies decreased with an increase in the porosity coefficient. The stiffness of the springs had no effect on the first mode frequency but increased frequencies of other modes in a specific range. The frequencies of the system decreased with an increase in environmental temperature.

병렬전단벽시스템은 경제적이고 효율적인 구조시스템이지만, 연결보의 복잡한 철근상세가 요구된다. 이를 보완하고자 ACI-318에서는 개선된 철근상세를 제안하고 있지만 과도한 횡보강근으로 현장 적용에 어려움이 따른다. 이 연구에서는 횡보강 철근량을 감소시킨 대각철근을 갖는 HPFRCC 연결보 상세를 제안하고, 형상비 2.0 실험체를 통해 현행 기준에 만족하는 대각철근을 갖는 철근콘크리트 연결보와 이력거동을 비교 평가하였다. 그 결과, HPFRCC의 횡구속 효과를 확인하였고, 횡구속 철근을 기준의 1/2로 배근하고 HPFRCC로 보강한 연결보는 현행기준에 따른 연결보와 유사한 내진성능을 보였다. HPFRCC 보강을 통해 대각보강된 철근콘크리트 연결보의 횡구속 철근량을 감소시킴으로써 철근상세의 단순화가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

병렬전단벽시스템은 횡력저항에 있어서 효율적인 구조시스템이지만, 각 독립벽체를 연결하는 연결보의 복잡한 철근상세로 인해 시공상의 어려움이 있다. ACI-318에서는 개선된 철근상세를 제안했지만, 이 또한 과도한 횡보강근으로 인해 대각철근의 중심부의 철근 배근 혼잡으로 인해 현장 적용에 어려움이 따른다. 본 연구에서는 프리캐스트를 통하여 철근 배근 오차 및 콘크리트 품질 등의 저하를 줄이고 ACI 318-11의 개선된 상세에 따른 기준 실험체와 일반대각철근을 묶음대각철근으로 대체한 철근콘크리트 연결보의 이력거동을 비교 평가하였다. 그 결과, 묶음대각철근을 적용한 실험체는 현행기준에 따른 연결보와 비교하여 유사한 이력거동을 나타냈고, 더 우수한 에너지소산능력을 나타냈다. 묶음대각철근을 적용한 철근콘크리트 연결보가 현행기준에 따르는 연결보를 대체하여 현장적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In this study a numerical method for soil-pile interaction analysis buried in multi-layered half planes is presented in frequency domain using FE-BE coupling. The total soil-pile interaction system is divided into two parts so called far field and near field beam elements are used for modeling a pile and coupled with plain strain elements for soil modeling. Boundary element formulation using the multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution is adopted to the far field and coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the proposed soil-pile interaction analysis method the dynamic responses of a pile on multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution is adopted to the far field and coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the proposed soil-pile interaction analysis method the dynamic responses of a pile on multi-layered half-planes are performed and compared with experiment results. Through this developed method the dynamic response analysis of a pile buried in multi-layered half planes can be calculated effectively in frequency domain.

The concrete bridge is likely to produce fatigue cracks during long period of service due to the moving vehicular loads and the degeneration of materials. This paper deals with the time-frequency analysis of a coupled bridge-vehicle system. The bridge is modeled as an Euler beam with breathing cracks. The vehicle is represented by a two-axle vehicle model. The equation of motion of the coupled bridge-vehicle system is established using the finite element method, and the Newmark direct integration method is adopted to calculate the dynamic responses of the system. The effect of breathing cracks on the dynamic responses of the bridge is investigated. The time-frequency characteristics of the responses are analyzed using both the Hilbert-Huang transform and wavelet transform. The results of time-frequency analysis indicate that complicated non-linear and non-stationary features will appear due to the breathing effect of the cracks.

This paper aims to investigate the natural frequency of a cracked cantilever L-beams with a coupled bending and torsional vibrations. In addition, a theoretical method for detection of the crack position and size in a cantilever L-beams is presented based on natural frequencies. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the equation of motion is derived by using extended Hamilton's Principle. The dynamic transfer matrix method is used for calculation of a exact natural frequencies of L-beams. In order to detect the crack of L-beams, the effect of spring coefficients for bending moment and torsional force is included. In this study, the differences between the actual data and predicted positions and sizes of crack are less than 0.5% and 6.7% respectively.

This paper deals with the coupled flexural-torsional vibrations of Timoshenko beams with monosymmetric cross-section. The governing differtial equations for free vibration of such beams are derived and solved numerically to obtain frequencies and mode shapes. Numerical results are calculated for three specific examples of beams with free-free, clamped-free, hinged-hinged, clamped-hinged and clamped-clamped end constraints. The effect of warping stiffess on the natural frequencies and mode shapes is discussed and it is concluded that substantial error can be incurred if the effect is ignored.

Since a ductile coupled shear wall system is the primary seismic load resisting systems of many structures, a coupling beams of these system must exhibit excellent ductility and energy absorption capacity. In this paper, the seismic response of coupled shear wall system is discussed. The cyclic response of steel coupling beams embedded into reinforced concrete boundary elements was studied. Three half-scale subassemblies representing a portion of a prototype structure were designed. constructed, and tested. The main test variables were the connection details of hybrid coupled shear wall. These efforts have resulted in details for increasing the seismic capacity of steel coupling beam in the seismic behavior of buildings.

A new type of earthquake resilient reinforced concrete (RC) shear wall structure, installed with replaceable coupling beams and replaceable corner components at the bottom of wall piers, is proposed in this study. At first, the mechanical behavior of replaceable components, such as combined dampers and replaceable corner component, is studied by cyclic loading tests on them. Then, cycling loading tests are conducted on one conventional coupled shear wall and one new type of coupled shear wall with replaceable components. The test results indicate that the damage of the new type of coupled shear wall concentrates on replaceable components and the left parts are well protected. Finally, a case study is introduced. The responses of one conventional frame-tube structure and one new type of structure installed with replaceable components under the wind and the earthquake are compared, which verify that the performance of new type of structure is much better than the conventional structure.
