This paper presents an effective, reliable and accurate method for prediction of structural behaviour of steel frames at elevated temperature. The refined plastic hinge method, which has been used successfully in the second-order elasto-plastic analysis of steel frames at ambient conditions, is adopted here to allow for time-independent fire effects. In contrast to the existing rigorous finite element programs, the present method uses the advanced analysis technique that provides a simple and reliable means for practical study of the behaviour of steel frames at elevated temperature by a limiting stress model. The present method is validated against other test and numerical results.

An experimental evaluation of crack propagation and post-cracking behavior in steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC) beams, using full-field displacements obtained from the digital image correlation technique is presented. Surface displacements and strains during the fracture test of notched SFRC beams with volume fractions ($V_f$) of steel fibers equal to 0.5 and 0.75% are analyzed. An analysis procedure for determining the crack opening width over the depth of the beam during crack propagation in the flexure test is presented. The crack opening width is established as a function of the crack tip opening displacement and the residual flexural strength of SFRC beams. The softening in the post-peak load response is associated with the rapid surface crack propagation for small increases in crack tip opening displacement. The load recovery in the flexural response of SFRC is associated with a hinge-type behavior in the beam. For the stress gradient produced by flexure, the hinge is established before load recovery is initiated. The resistance provided by the fibers to the opening of the hinge produces the load recovery in the flexural response.

Numerical simulations are prevalently used to evaluate the seismic behaviour of structures. The accuracy of the simulation results depends directly on the accuracy of the modelling techniques employed to simulate the behaviour of individual structural members. An empirical modelling technique is employed in this paper to simulate the behaviour of column members under cyclic and seismic loading. Despite the common modelling techniques, this technique is capable of simulating two important aspects of the cyclic and seismic behaviour of columns simultaneously. The proposed fiber-based modelling technique captures explicitly the interaction between the bending moment and the axial force in columns, and the cyclic deterioration of the hysteretic behaviour of these members is implicitly taken into account. The fiber-based model is calibrated based on the cyclic behaviour of square hollow steel sections. The behaviour of several column archetypes is investigated under a dual cyclic loading protocol to develop a benchmark database before the calibration procedure. The dual loading protocol used in this study consists of both axial and lateral loading cycles with varying amplitudes. After the calibration procedure, a regression analysis is conducted to derive an equation for predicting a varying calibrated modelling parameter. Finally, several nonlinear time-history analyses are conducted on a 6-story steel special moment frame in order to investigate how the results of numerical simulations can be affected by employing the intended modelling technique for columns instead of other common modelling techniques.

Recently, there are a number of studies over dynamic analysis for minimizing vibration of flexible structures such as solar panel for agility of high-agility satellite. The traditional studies perform dynamic analysis of a solar panel assumed as rigid structure since the stiffness of solar panel is higher than the stiffness of solar panel's hinge spring. However, there are vibrations that have modes of bending and torsion when high-agility satellite rotate speedily. This vibrations result in delaying safety time of satellite or degrading image quality. This paper presents dynamic analysis's technique of satellites including the spring hinge of solar panel and flexible structural solar panel's effects described as the linear equation of motion using Lagrange's theorem, and verifies the validity of an established dynamic analysis's technique of satellites by comparing the finite element method. In addition high-agility satellite's dynamic characteristics of a torque profile are analyzed from the established dynamic analysis's technique of satellites.

In precision laser microfabrication, focusing is essential to acquire good machining precision and uniform machining quality. If it does not perform, laser machining cannot be realized. So, confocal scanning method with high depth resolution is used for focus detection technique. This paper is concerned with a procedure for design, analysis and performance test of an autofocus fine actuating stage, which is composed of flexure-hinge type lever mechanism and piezoelectric actuator. Through series of analytical design, the stage is simplified as a rigid bodies(lever and main body) and springs(flexure hinges). The simplified model was applied to determine the dimension of flexure hinges and lever. After structural analysis confirmed design requirement, an actual stage was made and verified through an experiment on the static and dynamic characteristics(maximum stroke and 1st natural frequency). The fabricated stage was satisfied with the design requirement.

The design of reinforced concrete buildings must satisfy the serviceability stiffness criteria in terms of maximum lateral deflections and inter story drift in order to prevent both structural and non-structural damages. Consideration of plastic hinge formation is also important to obtain accurate failure mechanism and ultimate strength of reinforced concrete frames. In the present study, an iterative procedure has been developed for the analysis of reinforced concrete frames with cracked elements and consideration of plastic hinge formation. The ACI and probability-based effective stiffness models are used for the effective moment of inertia of cracked members. Shear deformation effect is also considered, and the variation of shear stiffness due to cracking is evaluated by reduced shear stiffness models available in the literature. The analytical procedure has been demonstrated through the application to three reinforced concrete frame examples available in the literature. It has been shown that the iterative analytical procedure can provide accurate and efficient predictions of deflections and ultimate strength of the frames studied under lateral and vertical loads. The proposed procedure is also efficient from the viewpoint of computational time and convergence rate. The developed technique was able to accurately predict the locations and sequential development of plastic hinges in frames. The results also show that shear deformation can contribute significantly to frame deflections.

본 논문은 변형에너지 힌지(Strain Eenergy Hinge)를 갖는 다목적 2호기의 태양전지판 전개에 대한 지상 전개실험과 이전 논문에서 다루었던 이론적인 모델링의 타당성에 관한 연구이다. 본 연구를 위해 먼저 이론적으로 설명하기 어려운 Stopper를 갖는 SEH에 대해 실험을 수행하여 비선형 좌굴 특성을 조사하였다. 이 특성은 태양전지판의 전개속도와 전개형태에 영향을 주므로 매우 중요하다. Stopper를 갖는 SEH의 실험 결과를 바탕으로 등가 모멘트-각도 선도를 도출하였으며 이 선도를 이론 모델과 결합하였다. 지상 전개 실험은 중력의 완전한 제거가 불가능하기 때문에 지지줄을 이용해 중력 보상을 시도하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공우주연구원에서 수행한 지상 전개 실험의 과정과 결과를 자세히 소개한다. 지상 전개실험 결과는 이론 모델에 근거한 수치 모사 결과와 잘 일치함을 볼 수 있었다. 따라서 이론 모델링의 타당성을 입증하였다.
