When wall-thinning occurs in nuclear Class 2 and 3 pipes, reinforcement is typically applied rather than replacement. To analyze the structural integrity of reinforced wall-thinned pipe, stress analysis results using full 3-D FE analysis are not compatible to the design code equation, ASME BPVC Sec. III NC/ND-3650. Therefore, the efficient stress evaluation method for the reinforced wall-thinned pipe, compatible to the design code equation, needs to be developed. In this paper, stress evaluation methods for the reinforced wall-thinned pipe are proposed using the equivalent straight pipe concept. Furthermore, for fatigue analysis of the reinforced wall-thinned pipe, the stress intensification factor of reinforced wall-thinned pipe is presented using the structural stress method given in ASME BPVC Sec. VIII Div.2.

선박 판부재를 대상으로 중요한 하중경우의 하나인 양축방향 면내하중을 작용시키면서 이중판의 폭, 길이, 두께 및 주판(main plate) 부식 영향 등의 각종 파라메타 영향에 따른 이중판의 정적 강도평가를 주판의 접촉효과를 고려한 탄소성 대변형 비선형 시리즈 구조해석을 수행하였으며 이들 해석 결과로부터 각 파라메타의 변화에 따른 강성과 강도 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 이중판의 보강 효과가 최소한 새판으로 치환 보수한 평판 강도 수준으로 설계되어야 하므로 이를 손쉽게 파악할 수 있게 이중판으로 보강된 판부재를 등가 평판 두께로 환산할 수 있는 간이 평가식을 개발하였다. 이 개발식을 이용하여 각 이중판 설계의 영향인자 변화에 따른 등가 평판두께의 증감 정도를 파악하고 이로부터 적어도 새판으로 보수한 평판강도에 달할 수 있게 양축방향 면내 압축하중을 받는 이중판의 설계지침을 제시하였다. 마지막으로, 개발된 등가 평판 도출식은 고정밀 좌굴강도 평가식과 서로 일정한 상관관계가 있음을 확인하고 관계식을 정립하였다. 이 관계식을 각 경우별로 축적하여 앞으로 일일이 구조해석을 수행하지 않고도 설계된 이중판 강도를 등가 평판두께로 제시할 수 있는 간이 추정식의 개발에 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

이 논문에서는 비공유 병렬구조에서 이행적 종속성을 갖는 선형적 재귀규칙의 병렬평가에 대한 패러다임을 제안한다. 병렬평가를 위해 우리는 모든 노드가 메시지 교환을 위해 연결망만을 공유하는 비공유 병렬구조를 고려한다. 여기서 정규화된 규칙의 평가는 그 규칙의 중명-이론적 의미의 계산이다. 이행적 종속성올 갖는 정규 화된 선형적 재귀규칙을 정의하고, 그 규칙이 등가의 표현식으로 변환될 수 있음을 보이고, 등가의 표현식을 근거로 결합, 분할, 이행성폐포 연산을 이용하여 정규화된 규칙에 대한 병렬평가를 위한 패러다임을 제안하고 시간 복잡도를 분석하였다.

The purpose of this study is to propose the general method for evaluating the equivalent damping ratios of a structure with supplemental response control dampers. We define Lyapunov function of which derivative can be expressed in autoregressive form and evaluate the equivalent damping ratios by using Lyapunov function and its derivative. This Lyapunov function may be called as generalized structural energy. In this study, it is assumed that the response of a structure is stationary random process and control dampers do not affect the modal shapes of a structure, and the structure has proportional damping. Proposed method can be used to get the equivalent damping ratios of a structure with non-linear control dampers such as friction dampers as well as linear control dampers. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method. we evaluate the equivalent damping ratios of a structure with viscous dampers. AMDs. and friction dampers. The equivalent damping ratios from proposed method are compared to those from eigenvalue analysis for linear control dampers. and those from time history analysis for non-linear control dampers. respectively.

The use of equivalent circuit models of piezoelectric energy harvesters is inevitable when power circuitry including rectifying and smoothing circuit elements is connected to them for evaluating DC electrical outputs. This is because it is difficult to incorporate the electro-mechanical coupling resulting from the additional circuitry into the conventional finite element analysis. Motivated by this observation, we propose a method to accurately extract the equivalent circuit parameters by using commercially available FEM software such as ANSYS which provides three-dimensional AC piezoelectric analysis. Then the equivalent circuit can be analyzed by circuit simulators such as $SimPowerSystems^{TM}$ of MATLAB. While the previous works have estimated the circuit parameters by experimental measurements or by analytical solutions developed only for limited geometries and boundary conditions, the proposed method has no such limitation because piezoelectric energy harvesters of any shapes and boundary conditions can be treated in FEM software. For the verification of the proposed method, multi-modal AC electrical power output by using a corresponding equivalent circuit is compared with that by ANSYS. The proposed method is then shown to be very useful in the subsequent evaluation of DC electrical output which is obtained by attaching a bridge diode and a storage capacitor to a piezoelectric energy harvester.

Small-scale models have been frequently used for experimental evaluation of seismic performance because of limited testing facilities and economic reasons. However, there are not enough studies on similitude law for analogizing prototype structures accurately with small-scale models, although conventional similitude law based on geometry is not well consistent in the inelastic seismic behavior. When fabricating prototype and small-scale model of reinforced concrete structures by using the same material, added mass is demanded from a volumetric change and scale factor could be limited due to size of aggregate. Therefore, it is desirable that different material is used for small-scale models. Thus, a modified similitude law could be derived depending on geometric scale factor and equivalent modulus ratio. In this study, compressive strength tests are conducted to analyze equivalent modulus ratio of micro-concrete to normal-concrete. Equivalent modulus ratios are divided into elastic, weak nonlinear and strong nonlinear phases, which are based on ultimate strain level. Therefore, an algorithm adaptable to the pseudodynamic test, considering equivalent three phase similitude law based on seismic damage levels, is developed. In addition, prior to tile experiment, it is verified numerically if tile algorithm is applicable to the pseudodynamic test.

Structures consisting of concrete and steel parts, which are irregular in damping ratios are investigated. This investigation is a code-based seismic design of such structures. Several practical difficulties encountered, due to inherent differences in the nature of dynamic response of each part, and the different damping ratios of the two parts. These structures are irregular in damping ratios and have complex modes of vibration so that their analysis cannot be handled with the readily available commercial software. Therefore, this work aims to provide simple yet sufficiently accurate constant values of equivalent damping ratios applied to the whole structure for handling the damping irregularity of such structures. The results show that the equivalent damping ratio changes with the height of the building and the kind of the structural system, but it is constant for all accelerations values. Thus, available software SAP2000 applied for seismic analysis, design and the provisions of existing seismic codes. Finally, evaluation of different kinds of structural system used in this research to find the most energy dissipating one found by finding the best value of quality coefficient.

The electromagnetic engine valve actuator is a key technology to achieve variable valve timing in internal combustion engine and the steel core and clapper of the electromagnetic engine valve actuator are laminated to reduce the eddy current loss. To design and characterize the performance of the electromagnetic engine valve actuator, FE (finite element) analysis is the most effective way, but FE (finite element) 3-D modeling of real lamination needs very fine meshes resulting in countless meshes for modeling and numerous computations. In this paper, the equivalent FE 2-D model of electromagnetic engine valve actuator is introduced and FE analysis is performed using the equivalent FE 2-D model.
