전통적인 유한요소법을 이용하여 얇은 탄성 구조물을 해석하는 경우, 전단 및 막 록킹에 의하여 해석결과의 품질이 저하될 수 있다. 더욱이 수치결과의 록킹방생 여부를 다른 참고할 만한 자료와 비교하지 않고 감지한다는 것은 그다지 쉽지 않다. 본 논문은 록킹에 대한 이론적 해석과 더불어 후 록킹인식을 위한 신뢰성이 있는 한가지 간단한 방법을 소개하고자 한다. 또한 이론적인 결과를 입증하기 위한 수치결과도 주어져 있다.

본 연구에서는 등방성 및 복합적층판 해석을 위해 추가변형률을 갖는 개선된 4절점 Reissner-Mindlin 평판휨요소를 제안하였다. 전단잠김현상과 가상적인 제로에너지모드를 제거하기 위해 비적합 변위모드와 Bubble 함수식에 근거한 새로운 형태의 전단변형률을 추가함으로써 횡방향 전단거동을 개선하였다. Andelfinger와 Ramm(1993)이 제시한 기본적인 추가변형률은 면내거동을 개선시키고자 그대로 적용하였다. 1차전단변형이론에 근거한 새로 개발된 4절점 평판요소를 '14EASP'라 명하였다. 14EASP 유한요소의 특징과 성능을 평가하고자 몇가지의 수치해석예제를 적용하였으며, 다른 유한요소 및 해석적인 해와 비교하였다. 그 결과 본 연구에서 제안한 14EASP는 보다 안정적이고, 수렴성이 빠르며, 특히 요소형상이 왜곡된 경우에도 정확한 결과를 도출하였다.

많은 장점을 가진 복합재료를 사용한 보강판에 대하여 지금까지 많은 연구자들이 변위법에 근거한 등매개변수 평판 요소와 보요소를 결합한 유한요소법을 사용하여왔다. 이러한 유한요소법은 보요소를 평판 요소의 절점에 대한 강성으로 치환하기 때문에 보강재에 대한 국부적인 거동을 파악할 수 없으며 복합적층 구조인 경우 그 적용성이 제한적이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 복합재료 보강판의 해석에 있어 보강재 및 판에 대하여 3차원 쉘요소를 사용하여 거동을 분석하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 Reissner-Mindlin의 1차 전단변형이론을 사용하였다. 그러나 Reissner-Mindlin이론에 의한 등매개변수 평판 휨 요소는 판의 두께가 얇아지는 경우 일반적으로 전단잠김현상과 가상의 제로에너지 모드가 발생하는데 이를 제거하기 위해 대체전단변형률장을 사용하였다. 폭-두께비, 형상비 뿐만아니라 경사판의 경사각 변화에 따른 임의방향 보강재를 갖는 단순지지된 복합적층 구형 및 경사판에 대한 처짐분포를 비교 분석하였다.

Free-vibration and buckling analyses of plate problems are investigated with the aid of the strain gradient notation finite element method (SGN-FEM). As SGN-FEM employs physically interpretable polynomials in developing finite elements, parasitic shear sources, which are the cause of shear locking, can be precisely identified and subsequently eliminated. This allows two mutually complementary objectives to be defined in this work, namely, evaluate the efficiency of free-vibration and buckling results provided by corrected models, and study the severity of parasitic shear effects on plate models performance. Parasitic shear are flexural terms erroneously present in shear strain polynomials. It is reviewed here that six parasitic shear terms arise during the formulation of the four-node Mindlin plate element. Two parasitic shear terms have been identified in the in-plane shear strain polynomial while other two have been identified in each of the transverse shear strain polynomials. The element is corrected a-priori, i.e., during development, by simply removing the spurious terms from the shear strain polynomials. The computational implementation of the element in its two versions, namely, containing the parasitic shear terms (PS) and corrected for parasitic shear (SG), allows for assessments of the accuracy of results and of the deleterious effects of parasitic shear in free vibration and buckling analyses. This assessment of the parasitic shear effects is a novelty of this work. Validation of the SG model is done comparing its results with analytical results and results provided by other numerical procedures. Analyses are performed for square plates with different thickness-to-length ratios and boundary conditions. Results for thin plates provided by the PS model do not converge to the correct solutions, which indicates that parasitic shear must be eliminated. That is, analysts should not rely on refinement alone. For thick plates, PS model results can be considered acceptable as deleterious effects are really critical in thin plates. On the other hand, results provided by the SG model converge well for both thin and thick plates. The effectiveness of the SG model is established via high-accuracy results obtained in several examples. It is concluded that corrected SGN-FEM models are efficient alternatives for free-vibration and buckling analysis of Mindlin plate problems, and that precise elimination of parasitic shear is a requirement for sound analyses.

In-plane and out-of-plane free vibration analysis of Timoshenko curved beams is addressed based on the isogeometric method, and an effective scheme to avoid numerical locking in both of the two patterns is proposed in this paper. The isogeometric computational model takes into account the effects of shear deformation, rotary inertia and axis extensibility of curved beams, and is applicable for uniform circular beams, and more complicated variable curvature and cross-section beams as illustrated by numerical examples. Meanwhile, it is shown that, the $C^{p-1}$-continuous NURBS elements remarkably have higher accuracy than the finite elements with the same number of degrees of freedom. Nevertheless, for in-plane or out-of-plane vibration analysis of Timoshenko curved beams, the NURBS-based isogeometric method also exhibits locking effect to some extent. To eliminate numerical locking, the selective reduced one-point integration and $\bar{B}$ projection element based on stiffness ratio is devised to achieve locking free analysis for in-plane and out-of-plane models, respectively. The suggested integral schemes for moderately slender models obtain accurate results in both dominated and non-dominated regions of locking effect. Moreover, this strategy is effective for beam structures with different slenderness. Finally, the influence factors of structural parameters of curved beams on their natural frequency are scrutinized.

To analyze the bending and transverse shear effects of laminated composite plates, a thirteen nodes triangular element will be presented. The suggested formulations consider a parabolic variation of the transverse shear strains through the thickness. As a result, there is no need to use shear correction coefficients in computing the shear stresses. The proposed element can model both thin and thick plates without any problems, such as shear locking and spurious modes. Moreover, the effectiveness of $w_{,n}$, as an independent degree of freedom, is concluded by the present study. To perform the accuracy tests, several examples will be solved. Numerical results for the orthotropic materials with different boundary conditions, shapes, number of layers, thickness ratios and fiber orientations will be presented. The suggested element calculates the deflections and stresses more accurate than those available in the literature.

Undoubtedly, the employment of direct bond interaction between steel and concrete is preceding the other mechanisms because of its ease of construction. However, the large scatter in the experimental data about the issue has hindered the efforts to characterize bond strength. In the following research, the direct bond interaction and bond-slip behavior of CFTs with circular cross-section were examined through repeated load-reversed push-out tests until four cycles of loading. The influence of different parameters including the diameter of the tube and the use of shear tabs were assessed. Moreover, the utilization of expansive concrete and external spirals was proposed and tested as ways of improving bond strength. According to the results section dimensions, tube slenderness, shrinkage potential of concrete, interface roughness and confinement are key factors in a natural bond. Larger diameters will lead to a considerable drop in bond strength. The use of shear tabs by their associated bending moments increases the bond stress up to eight times. Furthermore, employment of external spirals and expansive concrete have a sensible effect on enhancing bonds. Macro-locking was also found to be the main component in achieving bond strength.

Geometric nonlinear performance simulation and analysis of complex modern buildings and industrial products require high-performance shell elements. Balancing multiple aspects of performance in the one geometric nonlinear analysis element remains challenging. We present a new shell element, flat shell DKMGQ-CR (Co-rotational Discrete Kirchhoff-Mindlin Generalized Conforming Quadrilateral), for linear and geometric nonlinear analysis of both thick and thin shells. The DKMGQ-CR shell element was developed by combining the advantages of high-performance membrane and plate elements in a unified coordinate system and introducing the co-rotational formulation to adapt to large deformation analysis. The effectiveness of linear and geometric nonlinear analysis by DKMGQ-CR is verified through the tests of several classical numerical benchmarks. The computational results show that the proposed new element adapts to mesh distortion and effectively alleviates shear and membrane locking problems in linear and geometric nonlinear analysis. Furthermore, the DKMGQ-CR demonstrates high performance in analyzing thick and thin shells. The proposed element DKMGQ-CR is expected to provide an accurate, efficient, and convenient tool for the geometric nonlinear analysis of shells.
