Two types of numerical modeling techniques were considered for the dynamic response of a structure subjected to a ground acceleration. One technique is based on the equation of motion relative to ground motion, and the other is based on the equation of absolute motion of the structure and the ground. The analytic background of the former is well established while the latter has not yet been extensively verified. The latter is called a large mass method, which allocates an appropriate large mass to the ground so that it causes the ground to move according to a given acceleration time history. In this paper, through the use of a single degree-of-freedom spring-mass system, the equations of motion of the two techniques were analyzed and useful theorems are provided on the large mass method. Using simple examples, the numerical results of the two modeling techniques were compared with analytic solutions. It is shown that the theorems provide a clear insight on the large mass method.

Main objective of this study is to examine the hysteretic behaviors and to evaluate the capacity of precast concrete (PC) large panel structures simulated from the prototype of 15-story building, Two 1/2 scaled precast concrete wall specimens and one monolithic reinforced concrete specimen were designed and tested under the cyclic loading conditions. The main parameter of test specimens in PC large panel structure is the type of details for vertical continuity of vertical steel in horizontal joint. Also the behaviors of PC large panel structures are compared with that of monolithic reinforcement concrete wall structure. From the results, the stiffness and energy dissipation ratio of the precast concrete specimens are shown little bit lower than those of monolithic reinforced concrete specimen. In the PC large panel structures, the specimen connected vertically by welding (strong connection) showed higher strength than that of the specimen connected vertically by joint box. However the failure pattern of the former showed more brittle than that of the latter due to the diagonal compressive failure of wall panels.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the shear wall location in rigid frames on the dynamic behavior of a roof structure due to vertical and horizontal earthquake motions. The study deals with a gabled long span beam supported by two story rigid frames with shear walls. The earthquake response analysis is carried out to study the responses of the roof: vibration mode, natural period, bending moment and horizontal shear force of the bearings. The study results in the following conclusions: First, a large horizontal stiffness difference between the side frames is caused by the shear wall location, which results in a large vertical vibration of the roof and a large shear force at the side bearings. Second, in this case, the seismic design method for ordinary buildings is not useful in determining the distribution of the static equivalent loads for the seismic design of this kind of long span structures.

In order to trace a target in deep sky, a feed cabin 20 tons in weight used for a large radio telescope is drawn with six cables. To realize a smooth tracing all the time, optimal distribution of the cable tensions is explored. A set of cable-clog systems is utilized to control the wind-induced vibration of the cable-cabin structure. This is an attempt to apply the passive structural control strategy in the area of radio astronomy. Simulations of wind-induced vibration of the structure in both time and frequency domains offer a valuable reference for construction of the next generation large radio telescope.

Since the first family of structure-dependent methods can simultaneously integrate unconditional stability and explicit formulation in addition to second order accuracy, it is very computationally efficient for solving inertial problems except for adopting auto time-stepping techniques due to no nonlinear iterations. However, an unusual stability property is first found herein since its unconditional stability interval is drastically different for zero and nonzero damping. In fact, instability might occur for solving a damped stiffness hardening system while an accurate result can be obtained for the corresponding undamped stiffness hardening system. A technique of using a stability factor is applied to overcome this difficulty. It can be applied to magnify an unconditional stability interval. After introducing this stability factor, the formulation of this family of structure-dependent methods is changed accordingly and thus its numerical properties must be re-evaluated. In summary, a large stability factor can result in a large unconditional stability interval but also lead to a large relative period error. As a consequence, a stability factor must be appropriately chosen to have a desired unconditional stability interval in addition to an acceptable period distortion.

본 연구의 목적은 물리적 메모리 할당이 어려운 대용량 BIM(Building Information Modeling) 형상 데이터를 처리하기 위한 캐쉬(cache) 구조를 제안한다. 조달청 등 공공기관에서 BIM 발주가 많아짐에 따라 대용량 BIM 형상 데이터를 가시화하고, 계산해야 하는 경우가 많아지고 있다. 규모가 크고 복합적인 시설물의 경우, 렌더링 및 계산해야하는 형상 수가 많아 사용자가 BIM 모델을 검토하고, 단면을 확인하는 데 어려움을 겪는 경우가 있다. 예를 들어, 설계, 검토 협업 시, 대용량 BIM 데이터를 네트워크를 통해 전달받아야 할 경우, 다운로드에 많은 시간이 걸릴 수 있고, 물리적 여유 메모리 한계를 넘어가면, 에러로 가시화나 형상정보 추출이 불가능할 수도 있다. 물리적 메모리가 부족하거나 대역폭이 적은 네트워크 상에서 대용량 BIM 데이터를 활용하기 위해서는, BIM 형상 렌더링 및 계산 시점에 필요한 데이터만 메모리로 캐쉬(cache) 처리하는 것이 유리하다. 이 연구는 물리적 메모리 할당이 어려운 대용량 BIM 형상 데이터를 효과적으로 렌더링하고 계산하기 위한 BIM 형상 캐쉬 구조를 제안한다.

A new sequential algorithm and computational results for large-scale linear programs with a special structure were presented in the previous paper [9]. In this paper, a parallel version of the algorithm was developed for a hypercube multiprocessor architecture NCUBE2. Computational results using 128 processors are presented for a randomly generated large-scale sparse or dense problems with the number of variables up to 256 and constraints up to 5 million.

최근, 지진하중에 대한 대공간구조무의 응답특성에 관한 연구가 다수 수행되었으며, 라이즈/스팬비가 큰 지붕구조에 대하여서는, 수평지진입력에 대한 역대칭모드의 증폭이 지배적으로 됨이 지적되었다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 정적지진하중평가법에서는, 라이즈가 있는 지붕구조의 내진설계를 수행함에 있어, 허용응력도설계법을 따르며, 그림1과 같이 설계용전단력를 지붕면에 따라 부가하는 정적평가법을 채용하고 이를 정적지진하중평가법이라 부르기로 한다. 본 논문의 구성으로서는, 정적평가법의 개념 및 정적설계식의 유도과정을 나타내고, 라이즈/스팬비가 서로 다른 지붕구조물을 대상으로 하여, 본 평가법에 의한 결과와 정적응답해석을 수행한 결과를 비교하고, 정적평가법의 타당성에 대하여 검토한다.

본 논문에서는 비선형 강성방정식의 정확성 향상에 관해 연구한다. 대공간 구조물은 대경간을 가볍게 만들기 위해 두께비를 얇게 만들어야 하므로, 구조설계시 구조불안정 검토가 중요하다. 쉘형 구조물의 구조불안정은 초기 조건에 매우 민감하게 반응하며, 이는 대변형을 수반하는 비선형 문제에 귀착하게 된다. 따라서 구조불안정을 정확히 알아보기 위해 비선형 강성방정식의 정확성이 향상 되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 스페이스 트러스를 해석 모델로 하며 접선 강성방정식과 비선형 강성방정식의 두 이론을 프로그램으로 작성하여 비선형 해석을 수행한다. 두 이론의 해석 결과를 비교 고찰하여 비선형 강성방정식의 정확성 및 수렴성 향상에 대해 검토 한다.
