  • This paper presents a damage assesment method for buried pipelines subjected to Deep Excavation-induced ground movements. Ground deformation characteristics resulting from 3D finite element analysis was represented mathematically by a hyperbolic tangential function. A parametric study was performed on excavation depth and burial position of pipeline. The result of the parametric study indicate that length of hyperbolic tangential function affects the results of damage assessment. Using numerical studies for buried pipeline response to ground movements by relative flexibility of the pipe-soil system. The result of numerical studies are presented in forms of design charts which can be readily used for various condition encountered in practices.

  • The purpose of this study is to develop a reasonable design for transverse confinement reinforcement considering ductility and required transverse confinement reinforcement of RC bridge columns. In order to develop relationships between the curvature ductility and the displacement ductility, the analysis for total 21,600 columns using the computer program NARCC have been carried out for parametric studies. Based on the results from the parametric studies, a correlation equation between the curvature ductility and the displacement ductility was developed. In addition, an equation for calculating the required transverse confinement reinforcement based on ductility demand was developed for seismic design of RC bridge columns. The equations proposed by this study will provide more reasonable and more effective design guidelines for performance-based seismic design of RC bridge columns.

  • This paper presents a simplified approach for the design of semi-continuous composite beams in braced frames, where specific attention is given to the effect of joint rotational stiffness. A simple composite beam model is proposed incorporating the effects of semi-rigid end connections and the nonprismatic properties of a 'cracked' steel-concrete beam. This beam model is extended to a sub-frame in which the restraining effects from the adjoining members are considered. Parametric studies are performed on several sub-frame models and the results are used to show that it is possible to correlate the amount of moment redistribution of semi-continuous beam within the sub-frame using an equivalent stiffness of the connection. Deflection equations are derived for semi-continuous composite beams subjected to various loading and parametric studies on beam vibrations are conducted. The proposed method may be applied using a simple computer or spreadsheet program.

  • A new seismic design methodology has been developed for precast concrete diaphragms. Seismic design factors were used to be applied on top of diaphragm seismic design forces in the current code. These factors, established through extensive parametric studies, align diaphragm design strengths with different seismic performance targets. A simplified evaluation structure with a single-bay plan was used in the parametric studies. This simplified evaluation structure is reasonable and cost-effective as it can comprehensively cover structural geometries and design parameters. However, further verification and investigation are required to apply these design factors to prototype structures with realistic layouts. This paper presents diaphragm design of several precast concrete office buildings using the new design methodology. The applicability of the design factor to the office building was evaluated and verified through nonlinear time history analyses. The seismic behavior and performance of the diaphragm were investigated for the precast concrete office buildings. It was found that the design factor established for the new design methodology is applicable to the realistic precast concrete office buildings.

  • Leaning-type arch bridge is a new spatial structural system composed of two vertical arches and two leaning arches. So far there has been no contrast analysis of leaning type arch bridge with different systems. This paper focus on a parametric study of leaning type arch bridge with different systems to find the influential rules on structural forces and stability and to provide some reference for practical designs. The parametric analysis is conducted with different rise-to-span ratios and bending rigidities of arch ribs by comparing internal forces. The internal forces decline obviously with the increase of the rise-to-span ratio. The bending moments at the centers of the main arches and the leaning arches are sensitive to the bending rigidities of arch ribs. Parametric studies are also carried out with different structural systems and leaning angles of the leaning arch by comparing the static stability. The lateral stiffness of leaning-type arch bridge is less than the in-plan stiffness. Compared with the leaning-type arch bridge without thrust, the leaning-type arch bridge with thrust has a lower stability safety coefficient. The stability safety coefficient rises gradually with the increase of inclining angle of the leaning arch. This study shows that the rise-to-span ratio, bending rigidities of arch ribs, structural system and leaning angles of the leaning arch are all critical design parameters. Therefore, these parameters in unreasonable range should be avoided.

  • Handling constantly evolving configurations of aircraft can be inefficient and frustrating to design engineers, especially true in the early design phase when many design parameters are changeable throughout trade-off studies. In this paper, a physics-based design framework using parametric modeling is introduced, which is designated as DIAMOND/AIRCRAFT and developed for structural design of transport aircraft in the conceptual and preliminary design phase. DIAMOND/AIRCRAFT can relieve the burden of labor-intensive and time-consuming configuration changes with powerful parametric modeling techniques that can manipulate ever-changing geometric parameters for external layout of design alternatives. Furthermore, the design framework is capable of generating FE model in an automated fashion based on the internal structural layout, basically a set of design parameters describing the structural members in terms of their physical properties such as location, spacing and quantities. The design framework performs structural sizing using the FE model including both primary and secondary structural levels. This physics-based approach improves the accuracy of weight estimation significantly as compared with empirical methods. In this study, combining a physics-based model with parameter modeling techniques delivers a high-fidelity design framework, remarkably expediting otherwise slow and tedious design process of the early design phase.

  • 산사태 취약성 분석을 위해 적용된 기존 GIS 기반 확률론적 공간 통합 모델은 범주형과 연속형 자료와 같이 서로 다른 형태의 자료의 처리를 위한 이론적 배경과 효율적인 방법론을 제시하지 못하였다. 이 논문에서는 우도비의 틀 안에서 연속형 자료를 직접적으로 사용할 수 있도록 비모수적 경험적 추정 모델과 모수적 예측적 판별 분석 모델을 적용하였다. 그리고 유사율과 예측비율곡선을 계산함으로써 두 모델을 정량적으로 비교하고자 하였다. 제안 모델을 비 교하기 위해 1998년 여름 산사태로 많은 피해를 입은 장흥 지역과 보은 지역을 대상으로 사례연구를 수행하였다. 장 흥 지역에서는 두 모델이 유사한 예측 능력을 나타내었으나, 보은 지역에서는 모수적 예측적 판별 분석 모델이 보다 높은 예측 능력을 나타내었다. 결론적으로 제안한 두 모델은 산사태 취약성 분석을 위한 연속형 자료 표현에 효율적 으로 적용될 수 있으며, 두 모델이 개별적인 연속형 자료 표현의 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 다른 사례 연구를 통한 검증 작업이 병행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

  • 철근콘크리트 기둥의 비선형 이축모멘트-곡률 관계를 추적할 수 있는 이론모델을 개발하였다. 개발된 모델은 피복콘크리트 박리나 또는 최대하중 후 나타날 수 있는 기둥의 모멘트 저항능력의 취성적인 감소도 모사할 수 있다. 개발된 모델을 이용 기둥의 구성재료 특성과 철근의 기하학적 배치가 PM 상관도와 모멘트-곡률에 미치는 영향에 대하여 변수영향을 고찰하고 철근콘크리트 기둥의 연성은 축하중의 크기, 횡방향 철근의 간격 또는 체적에 가장 큰 영향을 받음이 이론적으로 고찰된 ACI PM-상관도와 비교하여 ACI 내진설계 기준에 따라 횡방향 철근이 배근된 기둥의 경우, 축하중과 모멘트에 대한 : (square root of sum of squares)값이 약 10% 증가하였으며 최대 축하중은 약 20% 정도 증가하였다.
