We proposed the concept of nominal rigidity of a long-span V-shaped rigid frame composite arch bridge, analyzed the effects of structural parameters on nominal rigidity, and derived a theoretical nominal rigidity equation. In addition, we discussed the selection of the arch-to-beam rigidity ratio and its effect on the distribution of internal forces, and analyzed the influence of the ratio on the internal forces. We determined the delimitation value between rigid arch-flexible beam and flexible arch-rigid beam. We summarized the nominal rigidity and arch to beam rigidity ratios of existing bridges. The results show that (1) rigid arch-flexible beam and flexible arch-rigid beam can be defined by the arch-to-beam rigidity ratio; (2) nominal rigidities have no obvious differences among the continuous rigid frame composite arch bridge, V-shaped rigid frame bridge, and arch bridge, which shows that nominal rigidity can reflect the global stiffness of a structure.

The purpose of this paper is to utilize the numerical assembly method (NAM) to determine the exact natural frequencies and mode shapes of a multi-step beam carrying multiple rigid bars, with each of the rigid bars possessing its own mass and rotary inertia, fixed to the beam at one point and supported by a translational spring and/or a rotational spring at another point. Where the fixed point of each rigid bar with the beam does not coincide with the center of gravity the rigid bar or the supporting point of the springs. The effects of the distance between the "fixed point" of each rigid bar and its center of gravity (i.e., eccentricity), and the distance between the "fixed point" and each linear spring (i.e., offset) are studied. For a beam carrying multiple various concentrated elements, the magnitude of each lumped mass and stiffness of each linear spring are the well-known key parameters affecting the free vibration characteristics of the (loaded) beam in the existing literature, however, the numerical results of this paper reveal that the eccentricity of each rigid bar and the offset of each linear spring are also the predominant parameters.

This paper presents the dynamic analysis of a cantilever beam undertaking impulsive force that undergoes rigid body motion. The transient response of the beam induced by the impulsive force and the rigid body motion is calculated based on hybrid deformation variable modeling method by applying the Rayleigh-Ritz assumed mode method. The stiffness variation effect caused by the rigid body motion is considered in this modeling. The effects of the impulsive force position and the angular velocity on the transient responses of the beam are investigated through numerical studies.

In this paper, a 2-dimensional novel beam element is developed and a method to replace the 3-dimensional analysis with 2-dimensional analysis is proposed. The developed novel beam element named rigid-ended beam element can consider the effect of three kinds of span points within one element, which was impossible in modeling with the ordinary beam element. Calculated results for the portal frame using the rigid-ended beam element agree with the results using membrane element. And also, the proposed simplified 3- dimensional analysis method which includes two step analysis using influence coefficients shows good accuracy. Structural analysis using the rigid-ended beam element and the simplified 3-dimensional method is revealed to have good computing efficiency due to unnecessity of the elements corresponding to the brackets and simplification of 3-dimensional analysis.

Winkler 지반과 2변수 Winkler 지반상에 놓인 강성보에 집중하중과 모멘트가 작용하는 경우에 대해 강성보에 발생하는 변위, 접촉압력, 모멘트를 유도하여 보았다. Winkler 지반상의 강성보에 발생하는 모멘트의 유도결과로 부터 강성보를 따르는 모멘트분포는 스프링 상수와 무관하게 나타남을 알 수 있었고 스프링 상수가 선형인 경우가 일정한 경우에 비해 모멘트값이 크게 계산되었다. 간단한 계산을 통해 볼 때 2변수 Winkler 지반에 놓인 강성보에 발생하는 최대 휨모멘트가 Winkler 지반에 놓인 강성보에 발생하는 그것에 비해 크게 계산되었다.

A new beam system comprising two cantilever stems and an interspan composite beam has been developed and its design philosophy is described in this paper. The system provides the equivalent of a semi-continuous beam without the requirement to calculate the moment rotation capacity of the beam-to-column connection. The economy of braced frames using the system has been investigated and compared with simple, continuous or semi-rigid systems. It is shown that the costs of the proposed system are similar to the semi-rigid system and cheaper than both the simply supported and rigid beam systems. Two tests have been carried out on 6 meter span beams, which also incorporated an asymmetric flange steel section. The behaviour of the system is presented and the test results are compared with those obtained from the theory.

초기설계 단계에서는 선체구조 강도의 신속한 해석을 위해 보요소를 사용한 유한요소 해석이 일반적으로 사용된다. 선체구조를 보요소로 모델링할 때, 브라켓은 해석의 간편화를 위해 강체 요소로 표시된다. 강체 단부의 길이(=span point)는 세 가지 관점 - 굽힘, 전단, 축 변형 - 에 따라서 결정된다. 본 논문에서는, 새로운 2차원 보요소를 개발하였고, 2차원 해석으로 3차원 해석을 대신할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. '강체 단부 보요소' 라고 명명된 이 보요소는 한 요소 내에서 세 종류의 span point 효과를 모두 고려할 수 있는데, 이것은 보통의 보요소에서는 불가능한 것이다. 강체 단부 보요소를 사용한 Portal frame 해석결과는 membrane 해석결과와 잘 일치한다. 그리고, 영향계수를 사용한 2단계 해석을 포함하는 준 3차원 해석결과는 좋은 정확도를 보이고 있다. 강체 단부 보요소와 준 3차원 해석방법을 사용한 구조해석은 브라켓에 해당하는 요소가 필요치 않고, 3차원 해석을 단순화시킬 수 있었기 때문에 좋은 계산효율을 가진 것으로 판명되었다.

Semi-rigid connections with blind bolts could solve the difficulty that traditional high strength bolts were unavailable to splice a steel/composite beam to a closed section column. However, insufficient investigations have focused on the performance of semi-rigid connection to square concrete filled double-skin steel tubular (CFDST) columns. In this paper, a component model was developed to evaluate the mechanical behavior of semi-rigid composite connections to CFDST columns considering the stiffness and strength of column face in compression and column web in shear which were determined by the load transfer mechanism and superstition method. Then, experimental investigations on blind bolted composite joints to square CFDST columns were conducted to validate the accuracy of the component model. Dominant failure modes of the connections were analyzed and this type of joint behaved semi-rigid manner. More importantly, strain responses of CFDST column web and tubes verified that stiffness and strength of column face in compression and column web in shear significantly affected the connection mechanical behavior owing to the hollow part of the cross-section for CFDST column. The experimental and analytical results showed that the CFDST column to steel-concrete composite beam semi-rigid joints could be employed for the assembled structures in high intensity seismic regions.
