The pile group foundation is widely used for gravity pier of high-speed railway bridges in China. If a moderate or strong earthquake occurs, the pile-surrounding soil will exhibit obvious nonlinearity and significant pile group effect. In this study, an improved pushover analysis model for the pile group foundation with consideration of pile group effect is presented and validated by the quasi-static test. The improved model uses simplified springs to simulate the soil lateral resistance, side friction and tip resistance. PM (axial load-bending moment) plastic hinge model is introduced to simulate the impact of the axial force changing of pile group on their elastic-plastic characteristics. The pile group effect is considered in stress-stain relations of the lateral soil resistance with a reduction factor. The influence factors on nonlinear characteristics and plastic hinge distribution of the pile group foundation are discussed, including the pier height, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and stirrup ratio of the pile, and soil mechanical parameters. Furthermore, the displacement ductility factor, resistance increase factor and yielding stiffness ratio are provided to evaluate the seismic performance of soil-pile system. A case study for the pile group foundation of a railway simply supported beam bridge with a 32 m-span is conducted by numerical analysis. It is shown that the ultimate lateral force of pile group is not determined by the yielding force of the single one in these piles. Therefore, the pile group effect is essential for the seismic performance evaluation of the railway bridge with pile group foundation.

일반적인 강구조물의 연결은 강절(rigid) 또는 활절(hinge)로 취급되고 있으나 실제 강구조물은 연결부위에서 부재간의 상대적인회전이 허용됨으로 인해 부분강절(semi-rigid)의 특성을 갖게 된다. 본 연구에서는 부분강절을 회전스프링으로 가정하여 부재 단부에 적용시킨 평면 뼈대구조물의 엄밀한 접선강도행렬을 유도하고 이를 다시 탄성강도행렬과 기하학적 강도행렬로 분리 유도함으로써 부분강절을 갖는 평면 뼈대구조물의 안정성해석을 위한 일반화된 해석방법을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위하여, 보-기둥부재의 좌굴조건을 만족시키는 처짐함수로부터 안정함수(stability function)를 유도하고, 횡변위(sway)를 고려한 힘-변위관계와 적합조건을 고려하여 정확한 접선강도행렬을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 타당성과 실용성 제고를 위해 두 가지 방법에 의한 수치해석프로그램을 개발하였고 다양한 해석예제를 통해, 타 연구자 해석 결과와 비교하고 부분강절이 구조물의 좌굴강도에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사한다.

As climate change escalates extreme weather events, the structural durability of plastic greenhouses, constituting 90% of Korea's facility agriculture, emerges as a critical issue. These greenhouses are pivotal for year-round crop cultivation and high-quality agricultural production. In 2021, collapses caused around US$2 million in damages, mainly due to heavy snowfall and strong winds, accounting for 97% of incidents. The Korean Ministry of Agriculture responded by disseminating disaster-resistant standardized designs, yet more robust standards are needed. Current designs rely on elastic analysis, but plastic greenhouses display nonlinear behavior due to factors like residual stress and local buckling. Our study employs a refined plastic hinge method and finite element analysis to analyze structures, considering progressive yielding. We conducted loading tests using scale down models of plastic greenhouses in accordance with similitude laws. Based on these tests, the deformation of models under different load conditions was measured and compared with the deformation of greenhouse using our nonlinear structural analysis. This study will contribute to the development of reliable design criteria for plastic greenhouses in response to climate extremes such as heavy snowfall and typhoons. In addition, by identifying the deformation characteristics of plastic greenhouses due to loads, it can contribute to establishing usability standards for greenhouses, and reinforcement measures for vulnerable areas which are easily deformed under load can be considered.

암반의 심도가 얕은 국내지반에서는 푸팅을 사용하지 않는 벤트기초가 매우 경제적인 공법이다. 현장타설말뚝을 이용한 벤트기초공법은 탄성설계로 제한하여 설계를 수행하여 왔으나, 도로교 설계기준에서 제시하는 소성설계를 적용하는 경우 소성힌지 발생지점이 지중에 위치하여 유지관리가 불가하고 소성힌지부에 적용하는 심부구속 철근의 간격 및 보강범위에 대한 기준 제정이 필요하다. 또한 지반의 소성 거동을 모델링 하는 것은 구조 해석시 실무적으로 매우 어려움이 많아 정밀한 해석이 필요하지 않는 경우에 대한 근사 해석법 제시가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 직경 1m의 현장타설말뚝을 사질토지반에 시공하여 지상 4m 높이에서 반복 재하시험을 수행하여 지반 및 말뚝의 거동을 파악하였으며, 기둥으로서의 거동을 함께 파악하였다. 소성힌지를 지상부에 유도하기 위하여 직경을 변화시키거나, 지중에 강관을 삽입하는 방법을 적용하였으며, 실험결과에 대하여 선형탄성 및 p-y 곡선등 다양한 예측방법과 교량에 대한 모의 설계를 통하여 지반 모델링 방법에 따른 해석결과를 비교하였으며, 실무적으로 적용할 수 있는 설계기준을 제시하였다.

본 연구에서는 말뚝재료의 항복거동 및 기하학적 비선형 거동인 P-${\Delta}$ 효과를 고려한 변단면 단일 현장타설말뚝의 거동특성을 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 실제 시공된 현장타설말뚝에 대한 말뚝재료의 균열 휨모멘트 및 균열 수평하중을 산정하였고, 국내 외에서 적용하고 있는 대표적인 수평변위 기준과의 비교분석을 수행하였다. 또한 구조적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 설계자료를 토대로 재료 및 지반조건을 반영한 현장타설말뚝의 거동을 예측하여 변단면 설계의 타당성을 검토하였다. 분석 결과, 재료의 항복거동과 P-${\Delta}$ 효과 고려시, 이를 고려하지 않는 경우와 비교하여 최대 모멘트가 지표면 부근에서 발생하여 소성힌지 위치에 영향을 주는 것을 나타났으며, 말뚝의 재료파괴는 주로 기둥부의 단면적이 작은 말뚝-기둥 접합부에서 발생하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 주로 말뚝이 수평변위 기준에 도달하기 전에 재료의 파괴가 먼저 발생하기 때문에 말뚝의 항복효과를 고려해야 함을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과, 변단면 단일 현장타설말뚝의 설계 시 불확실성을 고려하여 지지력을 과소평가하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 말뚝재료의 항복거동 및 기하학적 비선형 거동인 P-${\Delta}$ 효과를 고려한 해석기법을 통하여 거동특성을 정확히 예측한다면 경제적인 설계가 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

Modern codes for earthquake resistant building design require consideration of the so-called accidental design eccentricity, to account for torsional response caused by several factors not explicitly considered in design. This provision requires that the mass centres in the building floor be moved a certain percentage of the building's dimension (usually 5%) along both the x and y axes and in both positive and negative directions. If one considers also the spatial combinations of the two component motion in a dynamic analysis of the building, the number of required analyses and combinations increases substantially, causing a corresponding work load increase for practicing structural engineers. Another shortcoming of this code provision is that its introduction has been based primarily on elastic results from investigations of oversimplified, hence questionable, one story building models. This problem is addressed in the present paper using four groups of eccentric braced steel buildings, designed in accordance with Eurocodes 3 (steel) and 8 (earthquake design), with and without accidental eccentricities considered. The results indicate that although accidental design eccentricities can lead to somewhat reduced inelastic response demands, the benefit is not significant from a practical point of view. This leads to suggestions that accidental design eccentricities should probably be abolished or perhaps replaced by a simpler and more effective design provision, at least for torsionally stiff buildings that constitute the vast majority of buildings encountered in practice.

In the present work computations are carried out for analysis of complicated sheet metal forming process such as forming of a rear hinge. Finite element formulation using dynamic explicit time integration scheme and step-wise combined Implicit/Explicit scheme are introduced for numerical analysis of sheet metal forming process. The rigid-plastic finite element method based on membrane elements has long been employed as a useful numerical technique for the analysis of sheet metal forming because of its time effectiveness. The explicit scheme in general use is based on the elastic-plastic modelling of material requiring large computation time. In finite element simulation of sheet metal forming processes, the robustness and stability of computation are important requirements since the computation time and convergency become major points of consideration besides the solution accuracy due to the complexity of geometry and boundary conditions. The implicit scheme employs a more reliable and rigorous scheme in considering the equilibrium at each step of deformation, while in the explicit scheme the problem of convergency is eliminated at the cost of solution accuracy. The explicit approach and the implicit approach have merits and demerits, respectively. In order to combine the merits of these two methods a step-wise combined implicit/explicit scheme has been developed.

During recent earthquakes, a significant number of concrete structures suffered extensive damage. Conventional reinforced concrete structures are designed for life-time safety that may see permanent inelastic deformation after severe earthquakes. Hence, there is a need to utilize adequate materials that have the ability to tolerate large deformation and get back to their original shape. Super-elastic shape memory alloy (SMA) is a smart material with unique properties, such as the ability to regain undeformed shape by unloading or heating. In this research, four different stories (three, five, seven and nine) of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings have been studied and subjected to near-field ground motions. For each building, two different types of reinforcement detailing are considered, including (1) conventional steel reinforcement (RC frame) and (2) steel-SMA reinforcement (SMA RC frame), with SMA bars being used at plastic zones of beams and steel bars in other regions. Nonlinear time history analyses have been performed by "SeismoStruct" finite element software. The results indicate that the application of SMA materials in plastic hinge regions of the beams lead to reduction of the residual displacement and consequently post-earthquake repairs. In general, it can be said that shape memory alloy materials reduce structural damage and retrofit costs.

This paper presents a novel time-domain method for the identification of plastic rotations and stiffness parameters of single-bay frames with nonlinear plastic hinges. Each plastic hinge is modelled as a pseudo-semi-rigid connection with nonlinear hysteretic moment-curvature characteristics at an element end. Through the comparison of the identified end rotations of members that are connected together, the plastic rotation that furnishes information of the locations and plasticity degrees of plastic hinges can be identified. The force consideration of the frame members may be used to relate the stiffness parameters to the elastic rotations and the excitation. The damped-least-squares method and damped-and-weighted-least-squares method are adopted to estimate the stiffness parameters of frames. A noise-removal strategy employing a de-noising technique based on wavelet packets with a smoothing process is used to filter out the noise for the parameter estimation. The numerical examples show that the proposed method can identify the plastic rotations and the stiffness parameters using measurements with reasonable level of noise. The unknown excitation can also be estimated with acceptable accuracy. The advantages and disadvantages of both parameter estimation methods are discussed.
