The corrugated panels are the prime candidate structure for the floor, roof and wall of Korean high speed train. The equivalent continuum modeling approach panels can be used for the efficient design and evaluation of their structural characteristics. The equivalent continuum models, derived from the true complex corrugated panels, should have the same structural behavior as the original structures have. This paper briefly reviews three representative continuum modeling methods: the static analysis method and two plate-models based on modal analysis methods (MAM). These methods are evaluated through some numerical examples by comparing the natural frequencies and static deflections. It is observed that the plate-model based on Rayleigh-Ritz method seems to provide the best results when used in conjunction with the cantilever-type boundary conditions. The equivalent elastic constants of various corrugated panels, depending on the changes in their configurations, are tabulated for efficient use in structural design.

In this paper the geometrically nonlinear continuum plate finite element model, hitherto not reported in the literature, is developed using the total Lagrange formulation. With the layerwise displacement field of Reddy, nonlinear Green-Lagrange small strain large displacements relations (in the von Karman sense) and linear elastic orthotropic material properties for each lamina, the 3D elasticity equations are reduced to 2D problem and the nonlinear equilibrium integral form is obtained. By performing the linearization on nonlinear integral form and then the discretization on linearized integral form, tangent stiffness matrix is obtained with less manipulation and in more consistent form, compared to the one obtained using laminated element approach. Symmetric tangent stiffness matrixes, together with internal force vector are then utilized in Newton Raphson's method for the numerical solution of nonlinear incremental finite element equilibrium equations. Despite of its complex layer dependent numerical nature, the present model has no shear locking problems, compared to ESL (Equivalent Single Layer) models, or aspect ratio problems, as the 3D finite element may have when analyzing thin plate behavior. The originally coded MATLAB computer program for the finite element solution is used to verify the accuracy of the numerical model, by calculating nonlinear response of plates with different mechanical properties, which are isotropic, orthotropic and anisotropic (cross ply and angle ply), different plate thickness, different boundary conditions and different load direction (unloading/loading). The obtained results are compared with available results from the literature and the linear solutions from the author's previous papers.

본 논문에서는 강자성 선체에 존재하는 영구자화 분포에 기인한 자기장 신호를 예측하고자 연속체역학에 기반을 둔 매질민감도법과 등가 자기 모델을 결합한 역문제 해석 기법을 제시한다. 이를 위하여 3차원 자기전하 모델과 2차원의 등가 자기쌍극자 모델을 구축하였고 각각의 등가모델에 맞는 매질민감도 공식을 유도하였다. 매질민감도법은 자기전하나 자기쌍극자 변화에 대한 목적함수의 1차 미분정보를 제공하고 설계변수의 개수에 영향을 받지 않기 때문에 최적해를 빠른 시간에 도출할 수 있다. 제안된 해석 기법의 타당성을 검증하기 위해서 실험을 통해 측정된 자기장 신호와 각각 등가모델에 의한 역문제 해석을 통해 얻어진 예측치를 비교하였다.
