This paper presents the Campbell diagram analysis of the rotordynamic system using the full order model (FOM) and the reduced order model (ROM) techniques to determine the critical speeds, identify the stability and reduce the computational time. Due to the spin-speed-dependent matrices (e.g., centrifugal stiffening matrix), several model order reduction (MOR) techniques may be considered, such as the modal superposition (MS) method and the Krylov subspace-based MOR techniques (e.g., Ritz vector (RV), quasi-static Ritz vector (QSRV), multifrequency quasi-static Ritz vector (MQSRV), multifrequency/ multi-spin-speed quasi-static Ritz vector (MMQSRV) and the combined Ritz vector & modal superposition (RV+MS) methods). The proposed MMQSRV method in this study is extended from the MQSRV method by incorporating the rotational-speed-dependent stiffness matrices into the Krylov subspace during the MOR process. Thus, the objective of this note is to respond to the question of whether to use the MS method or the Krylov subspace-based MOR technique in establishing the Campbell diagram of the shaft-disc-blade assembly systems in three-dimensional (3D) finite element analysis (FEA). The Campbell diagrams produced by the FOM and various MOR methods are presented and discussed thoroughly by computing the norm of relative errors (ER). It is found that the RV and the MS methods are dominant at low and high rotating speeds, respectively. More precisely, as the spinning velocity becomes large, the calculated ER produced by the RV method is significantly increased; in contrast, the ER produced by the MS method is smaller and more consistent. From a computational point of view, the MORs have substantially reduced the time computing considerably compared to the FOM. Additionally, the verification of the 3D FE rotordynamic model is also provided and found to be in close agreement with the existing solutions.

AASHTO Standard의 하중분배계수식은 지간과 주형간격이 클수록 안전측으로 나타나지만, 지간과 주형간격이 작으면 비안전측임을 기존의 유한요소 연구에서 밝혀졌다. AASHTO LRFD는 주형간격, 지간, 바닥판 두께, 그리고 종방향 강성에 따른 분배계수식을 규정하고는 있으나, 이 식은 초기에 알려지지 않은 종방향 강성 때문에 정확한 하중분배계수 값을 결정하기 위해서는 반복절차가 요구되어진다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 2경간 연속 I-형교의 내측 및 외측주형에 대하여 반복설계 과정을 필요로 하지 않는 하중분배계수 간략식을 제안한다. 주형간격, 주형길이, 바닥판 두께, 바닥판 폭, 그리고 브레이싱의 간격 및 크기의 영향을 조사하기 위하여 유한요소법을 사용하였다. GTSTRUDL을 사용하여 교량 상부구조를 편심 보모델로 이상화 하였으며, 바닥판은 쉘요소, 거더는 보요소, 그리고 이 요소들의 합성거동을 위하여 강절링크로 연결하였다. 이 해석으로부터 얻은 분배계수를 AASHTO Standard와 LRFD 방법과 비교하였으며, 다른 매개변수들에 비해 거더간격, 지간, 그리고 바닥판 두께는 분배계수에 미치는 영향이 크게 나타났다. 내측주형에서 LRFD의 분배계수는 대부분의 경우에 안전측으로 나타났지만, 외측주형에서는 지간이 길 경우 비안전측으로 나타났다. 또한, 회귀분석을 수행하여 하중분배계수 간략식을 개발하였으며, 이 식에 의한 하중분배계수는 유한요소결과 보다는 항상 안전측이면서, AASHTO LRFD 보다는 일반적으로 작게 나타났다. 제안된 간략식은 2경간 연속 I-형교에 대한 실제 하중분배계수 산정에서 교량설계자들에게 도움을 줄 것이다.

환경시설물, 댐과 같은 유체를 저장하는 시설물을 대상으로 엄밀하게 지진 거동을 평가하기 위해서는 유체-구조물 상호작용을 고려한 해석이 필요하다. 특히, 댐-호소 계와 같이 상류 방향으로 무한 영역을 가지는 경우에는 이를 적절히 고려해야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 댐-호소 계와 같은 반무한 유체 영역을 갖는 시스템을 대상으로 무한 영역의 파전파 해석 및 유체-구조물 상호작용 해석을 위한 실용적인 수치 모형을 제시하였다. 시간영역에 적용가능한 방법으로 정확하면서도 경계적인 해석이 가능하다. 무한 유체 영역에 대해서는 일반 acoustic finite element 대신 작은 개수의 mid-point integrated acoustic finite element를 적용하고 최종 경계에는 점성경계를 부과한다. 제안하는 방법의 유효성과 정확성을 검증하기 위해 강체 댐체를 가정한 반무한 호소계를 대상으로 적용하는 요소의 개수, 모델링 영역 크기 등을 매개변수로 해석해와 비교·검증하였다. 제안된 방법을 적용하여 댐-호소 계의 유체-구조물 상호작용을 부가질량을 사용하는 경우와 비교하였다.

Since there are several places located in active seismic zones in the world, serious damages and losses have happened due to major scaled earthquakes. Especially, structures having different irregularities have been severely damaged or collapsed during these seismic events. Behavior of existing structures under several loading conditions is not completely determined due to some uncertainties. This situation reveals the importance of design and analysis of structures under seismic effects. Several non-linear static procedures have been developed in recent years. Determination of the seismic safety of the existing structures and strengthening techniques are significant civil engineering problems Non-linear methods are defined in codes to determine the performance levels of structures more accurately. However, displacement based ones give more realistic results. These methods provide more reliable evaluation possibilities for existing structures with developing computer technology. In this study, non-linear performance analysis of existing and strengthened steel structures by X shaped bracing members with 3, 5 and 7 stories which have soft story irregularity is performed according to FEMA-356 and Turkish Earthquake Code-2007. Damage ratios of the structural members and global performance levels are determined as well as modal properties and story drift ratios after non-linear finite elements analysis for each structure.

Structural optimization has been developed by two methods. One is the direct method which applies the Nonlinear Programming (NLP) algorithm directly to the structural optimization problem. This method is known to be very excellent mathematically. However, it is very expensive for large-scale problems due to the one-dimensional line search. The other method is the approximation method which utilizes the engineering senses very well. The original problem is approximated to a simple problem and an NLP algorithm is adopted for solving the approximated problems. Practical solutions are obtained with low cost by this method. The two methods are compared through standard structural optimization problems. The Finite element method with truss and beam elements is used for the structural and sensitivity analyses. The results are analyzed based on the convergence performances, the number is function calculations, the quality of the cost functions, and etc. The applications of both methods are also discussed.

Under strong shock loads including earthquake or blast, structures may start to crack in stress concentrated members. The continuous behavior of the structure changes to the discontinuous. In this study, numerical method analyzing continuous and discontinuous behavior of a structure is developed using a modified distinct element method. Equations of motion of each distinct element are integrated using the central difference method, one of the finite difference methods. Interactions between he elements are considered by an element and pore spring. The forces acting in the center of an element include contact stress transferred by element spring; tensile stress by pore spring; and external traction such as earthquake or blast load. To verify the proposed method, the behavior of the cantilever beam subject to the quasi-static concentrated force at the end is investigated. The failure behavior of the simply supported beam subject to the strong shock at the center is studied. The proposed method can predict the failure behavior of the structure due to the shock loading and the post-failure discontinuous behavior of the structure.

In this study, a FE model tuning method using experimental modal data was suggested after examining all the published conventional methods. The idea of this method is introducing scale factors to maintain both the structural connectivity and the consistency in the corrected stiffness matrix which makes it always possible to interpret the stiffness elements with the corresponding physical configuration of the targeting structure. The scale factors are determined to minimize the objective function of eigen-properties. The proposed method was tested to determine the joint stiffness of a T shaped beam. The test results were also compared with the tuned stiffness obtained from a probed commercial package (SYSTUNE) and found that this method is very accurate and compatible.

The linkage framework of geometric modeling and analysis based on the NURBS technology is developed in this study. The NURBS surfaces are generated by interpolating the given set of data points or by extracting the necessary information to construct the NURBS surface from the IGES format file which is generated by the commercial CAD systems in the present study. Numerical examples shows the rate of displacement convergence according to the paramterization methods of the NURBS surface. NURBS can generate quadric surfaces in an exact manner. It is the one of the advantages of the NURBS. A trimmed NURBS surface that is often encountered in the modeling process of the CAD systems is also presented in the present study. The performance of the developed geometrically exact shell element integrated with the exact geometric representations by the NURBS equation is compared to those of the previous reported FE shell elements in the selected benchmark problems.

This study investigates some of swarm intelligence algorithms to tackle a traditional damage detection problem having stiffness degradation or damage in mechanical structures. Particle swarm(PSO) and ant colony optimization(ACO) methods have been exploited for localizing and estimating the location and extent damages in a structure. Both PSO and ACO are population-based, stochastic algorithms that have been developed from the underlying concept of swarm intelligence and search heuristic. A finite element (FE) model updating is implemented to minimize the difference in a set of natural frequencies between measured and baseline vibration data. Stiffness loss of certain elements is considered to simulate structural damages in the FE model. It is numerically shown that PSO and ACO algorithms successfully completed the optimization process of model updating in locating unknown damages in a truss structure.
