When eccentrically braced steel frames (EBFs) are in the desired failure mode, links yield at each layer and column bases appear plastically hinged. Traditional design methods cannot accurately predict the inelastic behavior of structures owing to the use of capacity-based design theory. This paper proposes the use of performance-based seismic design (PBSD) method for planning eccentrically braced frames. PBSD can predict and control inelastic deformation of structures by target drift and failure mode. In buildings designed via this process, all links dissipate energy in the rare event of an earthquake, while other members remain in elastic state, and as the story drift is uniform along the structure height, weak layers will be avoided. In this condition, eccentrically braced frames may be more easily rehabilitated after the effects of an earthquake. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated through a sample case study of ten-story K-type EBFs and Y- type EBFs buildings, and is validated by pushover analysis and dynamic analysis. The ultimate state of frames designed by the proposed method will fail in the desired failure mode. That is, inelastic deformation of structure mainly occurs in links; each layer of links involved dissipates energy, and weak layers do not exist in the structure. The PBSD method can provide a reference for structural design of eccentrically braced steel frames.

철골조 초고층건물의 설계에 있어서 구조물의 극한상태는 탄성해석으로는 구할 수가 없다. 현재의 비탄성 해석프로그램은 중대형에서 수행되고 있으며 사용하기가 복잡하고 그 결과값을 분석하는데 많은 노력과 시간이 요구되기 때문에 실무분야에서 비탄성 해석은 사용성에서 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 잔여응력계수를 사용한 방법을 이용한 PC용 비탄성 해석법을 실제 초고층건물에 적용하여 탄성설계된 구조물에 대한 비탄성해석을 수행하였다. 또한 시스템 연성을 증대시키기 위한 구조시스템 변경방법에 관해 제시하고 있다.

철근콘크리트 구조물의 비탄성 내진설계를 위하여 할선강성을 사용한 선형해석법을 연구하였다. 제안된 방법에서는 기존의 탄성해석과 동일한 보-기둥 요소 및 면요소를 사용하여 구조물을 모델링하며, 비탄성거동의 영향을 반영하기 위하여, 비탄성변형이 예상되는 부재에 탄성강성 대신 할선강성을 사용한다. 할선강성을 사용하는 부재의 분포와 할선강성의 크기는 설계자가 의도하는 구조물의 소성메커니즘과 설계목표연성도에 의하여 결정된다. 이 구조해석모델에 대한 선형해석을 통하여 부재의 비탄성 설계강도를 직접 결정하고, 할선강성해석으로부터 구한 절점변위를 이용하여 할선강성보의 변형을 소성힌지에 발생된회전변형으로 변환한 후 소성변형에 대한 안전성을 평가한다. 제안된 방법을 이용하여 2차원 모멘트골조및 이중골조에 대한 내진설계를 수행하였으며, 3차원 골조에도 적용하였다.

연속경간 강합성 플레이트 거더교를 내측 교각 위 부모멘트부에서의 모멘트 재분배 효과를 고려하는 LRFD 비탄성설계법으로 설계하고 탄성설계법에 의한 설계결과와 비교하였다. 탄성 및 비탄성 설계 시에 교량은 3경간 연속교로 가정하였으며 경간비를 4:5:4로 중앙 경간 최대 경간장은 40m-70m를 고려하였다. 설계방법은 AASHTO-LRFD 규정을 적용하였으나 설계활하중은 최근 국내에서 새로이 제안된 활하중을 사용하였다. 탄성설계법으로 최대정모멘트 단면과 내측 교각 위 최대부모멘트 단면을 설계한 후에 내측 교각 위에서의 재분배모멘트를 계산하고 이를 최대정모멘트부의 설계모멘트에 추가하여 최대정모멘트부 단면에 대한 강도한계상태와 사용성한계상태에 대하여 검토하였다. 최대부모멘트부는 탄성설계법으로 구한 강거더 단면의 강재량을 감소시키고 비탄성설계법에 규정한 사용성한계상태 설계요구조건을 검토하였다. 5개의 연속교를 비탄성설계법으로 설계한 결과 최대부모멘트부의 강거더 단면적이 탄성설계에 비해 23% 내외 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다.

A new earthquake design method performing iterative calculations using secant stiffness was developed. The proposed design method has the advantages of convenience and stability in numerical analysis because it uses elastic analysis. At the same time, the proposed design method can accurately estimate the strength and ductility demands on the members because it performs the analysis on the inelastic behavior of structure using iterative calculation. In the present study, the procedure of the proposed design method was established, and a computer program incorporating the proposed method was developed. Design examples using the proposed method were presented, and its advantages were presented by the comparisons with existing design methods using elastic or inelastic analysis. The proposed design method, as an integrated method of analysis and design, can address the earthquake design strategy devised by the engineer, such as ductility limit on each member, the design concept of strong column - weak beam, and etc. Through iterative calculations on the structure preliminarily designed only with member sizing, the strength and ductility demands of each member can be directly calculated so as to satisfy the given design strategy As the result economical and safe design can be achieved.

Design of structures subjected to blast loads are usually carried out through nonlinear inelastic dynamic analysis followed by imposing acceptance criteria specified in design codes. In addition to comprehensive aspects of inelastic dynamic analyses, particularly in analysis and design of structures subjected to transient loads, they inherently suffer from convergence and computational cost problems. In this research, a strategy is proposed for design of steel moment resisting frames under far range blast loads. This strategy is inspired from performance based seismic design concepts, which is here developed to blast design. For this purpose, an algorithm is presented to calculate the capacity modification factors of frame members in order to simplify design of these structures subjected to blast loading. The present method provides a simplified design procedure in which the linear dynamic analysis is preformed, instead of the time-consuming nonlinear dynamic analysis. Nonlinear and linear analyses are accomplished in order to establish this design procedure, and consequently the final design procedure is proposed as a strategy requiring only linear structural analysis, while acceptance criteria of nonlinear analysis is implicitly satisfied.

Up to now, a number of models have been proposed and discussed to describe a wide range of inelastic behaviors of materials. The fetal problem of using such models is however the existence of model errors, and the problem remains inevitably as far as a material model is written explicitly. In this paper, the authors define the implicit constitutive model and propose an implicit viscoplastic constitutive model using neural networks. In their modeling, inelastic material behaviors are generalized in a state space representation and the state space form is constructed by a neural network using input output data sets. A technique to extract the input-output data from experimental data is also described. The proposed model was first generated from pseudo-experimental data created by one of the widely used constitutive models and was found to replace the model well. Then, having been tested with the actual experimental data, the proposed model resulted in a negligible amount of model errors indicating its superiority to all the existing explicit models in accuracy.

Walls are the most important vertical load-carrying elements of masonry structures. Their bond designs are different from one country to another. This paper presents the shear effects of some structural bond designs commonly used for masonry walls. Six different bond designs are considered and modeled using finite element procedures under lateral loading to examine the shear behavior of masonry walls. To obtain accurate results, finite element models are assumed in the inelastic region. Crack development patterns for each wall are illustrated on deformed meshes, and the numerical results are compared.

The purpose of this paper is to present a design procedure of coulomb friction dampers for controlling elastic and inelastic responses of building structures. The equivalent damping and frequency increased by the friction damper are estimated using ATC-40 and ATC-55 procedures which provide equivalent linear system for bilinear one, and then a design formula to achieve target performance response level by friction damper is presented. It is identified that there exists error between the responses obtained by this formula and by performing nonlinear analysis and the features of the error vary according to the hardening ratio, yield strength ratio, and structural period. Equations for compensating this er개r are reposed based on the least square method, and the results from numerical analyses indicate that the error is significantly reduced, and the proposed formula can be used without much error for designing coulomb friction damper for retrofitting a structure showing elastic or inelastic behavior.

In this study, the performances of a passive tuned mass damper (TMD) and a semi-active TMD (STMD) were evaluated in terms of seismic response control of elastic and inelastic structures under seismic loads. First, elastic displacement spectra were obtained for damped structures with a passive TMD and with a STMD proposed in this study. The displacement spectra confirmed that the STMD provided much better control performance than passive TMD and the STMD had less stroke requirement. Also, the robustness of the TMD was evaluated by off-tuning the frequency of the TMD to that of the structure. Finally, numerical analyses were conducted for an inelastic structure of hysteresis described by the Bouc-Wen model. The results indicated that the performance of the passive TMD whose design parameters were optimized for an elastic structure considerably deteriorated when the hysteretic portion of the structural responses increased, and that the STMD showed about 15-40% more response reduction than the TMD.
