무한 및 반무한 경계조건을 가진 지하구조체에 대하여 개별요소법과 경계요소법을 조합하여 해석하는 방법을 제안하였다. 일반적으로 무한 또는 반무한 경계를 가지는 지하구조체의 문제에 있어서 응력집중부, 굴착면 혹은 불연속면이 발달되어 있는 영역을 개별요소로 모형화하고 무한 영역은 선형경계요소를 사용하여 모형화 하였다. 여기서, 선형경계요소에 의한 무한 및 반무한 영역의 고려는 Kelvin의 무한 영역, Melan의 반무한 영역에서의 해로 구성하였다. 효율적인 해석을 위하여 선형 경계요소법, 개별요소법, 개별요소와 경계요소 조합방법 등이 독립적으로 연구되었다. 연구된 각 방법에 근거하여 조합된 해석방법을 무한 및 반무한 문제에 적용하여 기존의 이론해석치와 비교하여 검증을 실시하고, 지하구조체에 적용하여 조합해석방법의 실용성을 보였다. 따라서, 지하구조체에 조합방법을 사용하면 지반의 불연속 조건과 경계조건에 따르는 구조물의 거동을 합리적으로 예측할 수 있으며, 개별요소와 경계요소의 장점을 살려 보다 합리적인 해석의 수행이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper the stochastic analysis of semi-infinite domain is presented using the weighted integral method, which is expanded to include the infinite finite elements. The semi-infinite domain can be thought as to have more uncertainties than the ordinary finite domain in material constants, which shows the needs of and the importance of the stochastic finite element analysis. The Bettess's infinite element is adopted with the theoretical decomposition of the strain matrix to calculate the deviatoric stiffness of the semi-infinite domains. The calculated value of mean and the covariance of the displacement are revealed to be larger than those given by the finite domain assumptions giving the rational results which should be considered in the design of structures on semi-infinite domains.

The finite element technique incorporating infinite elements is applied to analyzing the general three dimensional wave-structure interaction problems within the limits of linear wave theory. The hydrodynamic farces are assumed to be inertially dominated, and viscous effects are neglected. In order to analyze the corresponding boundary value problems efficiently, two types of elements are developed. One is the infinite element for modeling the radiation condition at infinity, and the other is the fictitious bottom boundary element for the case of deep water. To validate those elements, numerical analyses are performed for several floating structures. Comparisons with the results from culler available solution methods show that the present method incorporating tile infinite and the fictitious bottom boundary elements gives good results.

This paper deals with a hybrid finite element method for wave scattering problems in infinite domains. Scattering of waves involving complex geometries, in conjunction with infinite domains is modeled by introducing a mathematical boundary within which a finite element representation is employed. On the mathematical boundary, the finite element representation is matched with a known analytical solution in the infinite domain in terms of fields and their derivatives. The derivative continuity is implemented by using a slope constraint. Drilling degrees of freedom at each node of the finite element model are introduced to make the numerical model more sensitive to the transverse component of the elastodynamic field. To verify the effects of drilling degrees freedom and slope constraints individually, reflection of normally incident P and SV waves on a traction free half spaces is considered. For the P-wave incidence, the results indicate that the use of slope constraint is more effective because it suppresses artificial reflection at the mathematical boundary. For the SV-wave case, the use of drilling degrees freedom is more effective by reducing numerical error at irregular frequencies.

A method employing infinite elements is described for the magnetic field computations of the magnetic circuits with permanent magnet. The system stiffness matrix is derived by a variational approach, while the interfacial boundary conditions between the finite element regions and the infinite element regions are dealt with using collocation method. The proposed method is applied to a simple linear problems, and the numerical results are compared with those of the standard finite element method and the analytic solutions. It is observed that the proposed method gives more accurate results than those of the standard finite element method under the same computing efforts.

터널과 같이 구조물의 크기가 매질의 영역에 비하여 상대적으로 작은 경우와 같은 무한영역의 문제는 유한요소법을 적용하여 해석할 수 있으나 해석의 정밀도를 높이기 위해서는 해석영역을 크게 선정하게 되어 계산량이 증가하고, 인위적인 경계조건에 의한 오차의 영향을 피할 수 없다. 이를 개선하기 위해 관심영역은 유한요소로 모델링하고 무한영역은 무한요소로 모델링하는 혼합법을 적용하면 보다 효과적이다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 감쇠함수를 적용한 등매개변수형 무한요소를 제안하였고 매개변수해석을 통하여 터널해석에 적합한 감쇠함수의 특성치를 제시하였다. 또한 이를 적용한 3차원 혼합모델이 터널 해석에 유효함을 입증하였다.

This paper presents dynamic infinite element formulations which have been developed for soil-structure interaction analysis both in frequency and in time domains by the present authors during the past twenty years. Axisymmetric, 2D and 3D layered half-space soil media were considered in the developments. The displacement shape functions of the infinite elements were established using approximate expressions of analytical solutions in frequency domain to represent the characteristics of multiple waves propagating into the unbounded outer domain of the media. The proposed infinite elements were verified using benchmark examples, which showed that the present formulations are very effective for the soil-structure interaction analysis either in frequency or in time domain. Example applications to actual interaction problems are also given to demonstrate the capability and versatility of the present methodology.

본 논문에서는 유한요소와 무한요소를 사용하여 수중 산란체의 산란해석을 수행하였다. 무한영역을 유한영역으로 나누어 유한영역은 유한요소를 사용하여 모델링하고 무한/유한 영역의 경계면에서는 비반사조건을 만족시키기 위하여 무한요소를 사용하되 파동 특성이 가미된 IWEE(Infinite Wave Envelope Element)를 사용하였다. 수중 강체구의 산란해석에 유한요소의 차수, 크기 및 유한요소 모델 그리고 IWEE가 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 수치적 산란해석에서 인위적 반사를 줄이기 위해서는 유한요소와 IWEE의 연결을 유연하게 하기 위하여 유한요소는 잘게 나누거나 이차요소를 사용하는 것이 좋으며 IWEE에서는 고차를 사용하는 것이 바람직하다.

The dynamic interaction between tunnel structures and their surrounding soil medium due to impulse loading is investigated by a hybrid IEM/FEM methodology. A dynamic infinite element is developed for the efficient descretization of the far-field region of the unbounded soil medium. The shape functions of the infinite element are constructed based on the far-field solutions which are obtained by solving the 2-D elastic wave problems. Also they are devised to obtain a reasonable result over all frequency range. Numerical analysis is carried out to examine the response of the tunnel subjected to simple rectangular impulse. It is indicated that the results by the present method are in good accord with those by the boundary and finite element coupling method.
