The effect of galleries on the earthquake behavior of dams should be investigated to obtain more realistic results. Therefore, a roller compacted concrete (RCC) dam with and without galleries are examined under ground motion effects. For this purpose, Cine RCC dam constructed in Aydın, Turkey, is selected in applications. The optimal mesh around galleries is investigated to obtain the most realistic results. Two-dimensional finite element models of Cine RCC dam with and without galleries are prepared by using ANSYS software. Empty and full reservoir conditions were taken into account in the time-history analyses. Hydrodynamic effect of the reservoir water was taken into account considering two-dimensional fluid finite elements based on the Lagrangian approach. It is examined that how principle stresses and displacements change by height and during earthquake. The dam-foundation-reservoir interaction was taken into consideration with contact-target element pairs. The displacements and principle stress components obtained from the linear analyses are compared each other for various cases of reservoir water and galleries. According to numerical analyses, the effect of galleries is clear on the response of RCC dam. Besides, hydrodynamic water effect obviously increases the principle stress components and horizontal displacements of the dam.

This study focuses on the analysis of slewing ball bearings in wind turbines. Slewing bearings have an outer diameter of several meters, and hundreds of balls are in contact with the raceway. Due to the large number of balls and raceway contact conditions, it is difficult to accurately analyze contact stresses using general analysis techniques. To analyze the contact stress of a slewing ball bearing, the sub-modeling method is applied, which is a technique that first analyzes the displacement of the entire model and then analyzes the local stress at the point of maximum displacement. In order to reduce the displacement analysis time of the entire ball bearing, the technique of replacing the ball with a nonlinear spring is adopted. The analytical agreement of the simplified model was evaluated by comparing it with a solid mesh model of the ball for three models with different spring attachment methods. It was found that for the condition where a large turnover moment is applied to the bearing, increasing the number of spring elements gives the closest results to modeling the ball with a solid mesh.

다른 나라의 저궤도 위성에 대한 궤도 정보를 레이더 시스템을 이용하여 독자적으로 획득할 경우, 이에 필요한 궤도결정 알고리즘을 해석적 모델인 SGP4 모델과 실시간 처리방식인 확장 칼만필터를 이용하여 수치적 방법으로 개발하였다. 궤도결정 알고리즘의 상태벡터를 Kepler 6궤도 요소로 지정할 경우, 상태천이 행렬 계산시 궤도 경사각과 이심률에 대해 특이점 문제가 발생한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 평균 궤도 요소를 평균 위치 및 속도 요소로 변환하여 상태벡터로 지정하였다. 필터 구성시 상태천이 행렬(State Transition Matrix)과 공분산 행렬(Covariance Matrix)은 SGP4모델과 수치적 방법인 finite difference방법을 이용하여 계산하였으며, 관측 자료는 방위 각, 고도각, 그리고 시선거리 형태로 각각 입력되며 각 관측 형태에 따라 일괄적으로 처리하도록 필터를 구성하였다. TOPEX/POSEIDON POE를 이용 시뮬레이션 생성한 관측간을 사용하여 개발한 궤도결정 알고리즘의 성능을 분석한 결과 개발한 알고리즘은 약 1km의 위치 오차를 가지며 7일 동안 약 3km의 위치 오차를 가지는 NORAD시스템과 동일한 성능을 가지기 위해 필요한 레이더 시스템의 최소 성능 요구조건은 방위각과 고도각은 0.1도 이내이고 시선거리는 50m이 내여야 한다.

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.

The dynamic response of structures under extremely short duration dynamic loads is of great concern nowadays. This paper investigates structures' response as well as the associated structural damage to explosive loads considering and ignoring the supporting soil flexibility effect. In the analysis, buildings are modeled by two alternate approaches namely, (1) building with fixed supports, (2) building with supports accounting for soil-flexibility. A lumped parameter model with spring-dashpot elements is incorporated at the base of the building model to simulate the horizontal and rotational movements of supporting soil. The soil flexibility for various shear wave velocities has been considered in the investigation. In addition, the influence of variation of lateral natural periods of building models on the obtained response and peak response time-histories besides damage indices has also been investigated under blast loads with different peak over static pressures. The Dynamic response is obtained by solving the governing equations of motion of the considered building model using a developed Matlab code based on the finite element toolbox CALFEM. The predicted results expressed in time-domain by the building model incorporating SSI effect are compared with the corresponding model results ignoring soil flexibility effect. The results show that the effect of surrounding soil medium leads to significant changes in the obtained dynamic response of the considered systems and hence cannot be simply ignored in damage assessment and response time-histories of structures where it increases response and amplifies damage of structures subjected to blast loads. Moreover, the numerical results provide an understanding of level of damage of structure through the computed damage indices.

An optimal design of a multi-layered plate structure to endure high-velocity impact has been suggested by using size optimization after numerical simulations. The NET2D, a Lagrangian explicit time-integration finite element code for analyzing high-velocity impact, was used to find the parameters for the optimization. Three different materials such as mild steel, aluminum for a multi-layered plate structure and die steel for the pellet, were assumed. In order to consider the effects of strain rate hardening, strain hardening and thermal softening, Johnson-Cook model and Phenomenological Material Model were used as constitutive models for the simulation. It was carried out with several different gaps and thickness of layers to figure out the trend in terms of those parameters' changes under the constraint, which is against complete penetration. Also, the measuring domain has been shrunk with several elements to reduce the analyzing time. The response surface method based on the design of experiments was used as optimization algorithms. The optimized thickness of each layer in which perforation does not occur has been obtained at a constant velocity and a designated total thickness. The result is quite acceptable satisfying both the minimized deformation energy and the weight criteria. Furthermore, a conceptual idea for topology optimization was suggested for the future work.

이방성 복합재료 적층판에서는 섬유의 배열방향에 따라 탄성계수가 변하므로 속도가 섬유의 방향성에 의존하게 된다. 등방성 속도를 기준으로 도달 시간차를 측정하는 전통적인 2차원 음향방출 위치표정 방법을 그대로 적용할 경우 위치표정의 오차가 매우 커지며, 그 과정이 복잡해지는 것을 피할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 위치표정의 대상이 되는 관심영역(ROI)를 마치 유한요소법에서 사용하는 메쉬(mesh)처럼 적절한 크기의 정사각형 요소로 나눈 뒤, 각각을 가상의 AE 발생원으로 간주하였으며, 모든 요소에 대해 이방성을 고려한 속도를 기준으로 각 센서와의 도달시간차를 구하였다. 실험적인 검증을 위하여 알루미늄 박판 및 복합재료 적층판에 대해 $0^{\circ}$ 부터 $90^{\circ}$까지의 속도를 측정하고 위치표정을 실시함으로써 이방성 적층복합재로 이루어진 실제 구조물에서의 실시간 활용가능성을 확인하였다.

This study analyzed stresses in concrete and its reinforcement, computing the additional loading transferred by concrete creep. The loading varied from zero, structure exclusively under its self-weight, up to the critical buckling load. The studied structure was a real, tapered, reinforced concrete pole. As concrete is a composite material, homogenizing techniques were used in the calculations. Due to the static indetermination for determining the normal forces acting on concrete and reinforcement, equations that considered the balance of forces and compatibility of displacement on cross-sections were employed. In the mathematical solution used to define the critical buckling load, all the elements of the structural dynamics present in the system were considered, including the column self-weight. The structural imperfections were linearized using the geometric stiffness, the proprieties of the concrete were considered according to the guidelines of the American Concrete Institute (ACI 209R), and the ground was modeled as a set of distributed springs along the foundation length. Critical buckling loads were computed at different time intervals after the structure was loaded. Finite element method results were also obtained for comparison. For an interval of 5000 days, the modulus of elasticity and critical buckling load reduced by 36% and 27%, respectively, compared to an interval of zero days. During this time interval, stress on the reinforcement steel reached within 5% of the steel yield strength. The computed strains in that interval stayed below the normative limit.

Because of the simplicity in analysis and design of steel structure, the connections of members are assumed either as perfectly hinged or rigidly fixed. However, a more economical design would result if the effect of restraint in connections were included in analyzing frame structure. From this point of view, stiffness matrices for member with bracketed connections are presented in the form of the stiffness matrices for member with variable moment of inertia, modified by a correction matrix, whose elements are functions of fixity factors of the connections. To obtain fixity factors, the displacements and stress distribution of bracketed connections are investigated by using of the degital computer program, which have been developed to make computing time shorten and the round off errors smaller. The relationship of moments and slip angle in bracketed connections are presented in the form of curves, which can be used in establishing a stiffness matrices for member with bracketed connections.
