In order to take account of the statistical properties of probability variables used in the structural analysis, the conventional approach using the safety factor based on past experience usually estimated the safety of a structure. The real structures could only be analyzed with the error in estimation of loads, material characters and the dimensions of the members. But the errors should be considered systematically in the structural analysis. Structural safety could not precisely be appraised by the traditional structural design concept. Recently, new approach based on the probability concept has been applied to the assessment of structural safety using the reliability concept. In this study, safety of structures will estimated by the reliability analysis with commercial structural software that has the tools of nonlinear elastic-plastic 3-D analysis. Experimental test result is compared to results from this research and Coan/sup 1)/ In this paper, AFOSM(Advanced First-Order Second Moment method) is applied with von Mises, Tresca and Mohr-Coulomb failure criterions. The reliability index β and probability of failure P/sub f/ can be obtained by following this practical procedure as judgement a safety of structures and necessity of reinforcing.

This study has designed and evaluated the safety of watertight damper for Offshore Rigs. The watertight damper is an improved design for conventional DN 350 butterfly valve. Numerical analysis has been performed to investigate the safety factor and seat leakage of the designed 3-type disk dampers. The structure analysis results present the deformations, the equivalent stresses and the safety factor. It was confirmed that the designed disk, rib-disk and streamlined disk of watertight damper are safe enough in maximum operating pressure of 0.98MPa. The results show that the disk damper had the smallest maximum deformations and stress among 3-type disk dampers and the safety factor was 4.3. Therefore it is confirmed that the disk damper has the most excellent strength. Also linear static structural analysis was individually conducted for disk and body. The results show that the maximum disk deformation was larger than the body deformation, Therefore the disk damper is causes no seat leakage.

An efficient and accurate algorithm is proposed to estimate cable safety factor of suspension bridges satisfying prescribed reliability levels. Uncertainties in the structure and load parameters are incorporated. The proposed algorithm integrates the concepts of the inverse reliability method and deterministic method for assessing cable safety factors of suspension bridges. The unique feature of the proposed method is that it offers a tool for cable safety assessment of suspension bridges, when the reliability level is specified as a target to be satisfied by the designer. After the accuracy and efficiency of the method are demonstrated through two numerical examples, the method is used to estimate cable safety factors of suspension bridges with span length ranging from 2000 to 5000 m. The results show that the deterministic method overestimates cable safety factor of suspension bridges because of neglecting the parameter uncertainty effects. The actual cable safety factor of suspension bridges should be estimated based on the proposed method.

A structural safety evaluation was conducted for the stabbing system for the pre-piling jacket substructure currently being developed in South Korea, considering pile construction errors due to its lateral movement that may occur during construction in the ocean. Based on (1) the maximum stress generated by the stabbing system, (2) the maximum rotational displacement of the guide cone, and (3) the maximum stress generated by the horizontal hydraulic pressure cylinder, the structural safety of the stabbing system was examined under the initial loading condition and three possible load combinations during its construction. In order to evaluate the structural safety of the stabbing system, a concept of stress safety factor (= Yield stress / Max. Von-Mises stress) was used. It was found that the stabbing system considered in this study has a sufficient margin of safety.

In Korea, the driving system restriction criteria is strictly applied(gross weight 400kN, axial load 100kN). Especially after the Seoungsu Bridge accident, safety factor has been strictly applied. The Safety factor is applied to the cumulative results for each steps like design, construction, maintenance of the Bridge. Because of it, the bridge is undervalued compared to its capacity. So, this generates loss for both private and military sector(eg. logistical delays, structural damage, etc.). But analyzing data from many existing researches we have confirmed that the military heavy vehicle may pass through the first class bridges. In consequence, this study have focused on determining whether HETS vehicles can pass over the first class bridge, without safety issues, using MIDAS structural analysis program. The results have confirmed that the military heavy vehicle may pass over the bridge.

One of the main objectives of the study is to propose a pratical and realistic reliability analysis by ETCM(Expected Total Cost Minimization). This study is intended to propose the safety assesment and capacity rating of existing reinforced concrete members by evaluating the safety evaluation index, that is RF(Rating Factor) from the results of the field test and inspection for 5 reinforced concrete bridges. ETCM method is used for the reliability analysis of the proposed models. The proposed reliability model and method are applied the safety assesment and system factors of reinforced concrete members.

In this study, we analyzed a cold draw (CD) bar packaging automation facility to examine its structural safety. The structural analysis focused on the frame part of the automatic packing machine for the CD round rod widely used in the industrial field, as well as the package supply device, banding suit, and crane part. As a result, we concluded that the structural safety for the banding suit, crane, and package supply device have been secured (safety factors of 9.8, 7.5, and 14.5, respectively). In addition, the safety factor of the transfer was 4.0.

연료가스 압축 시스템은 중급의 FPSO에 설치되며, 이 시스템에서 서지를 방지하기 위하여 안티 서지 밸브가 사용되어진다. 만약 서지가 발생하게 되면 시스템의 파괴를 초래할 수 있으므로 안티서지 밸브는 반드시 구조강도와 구조안전성 평가가 수반되어야한다. 특히, 비상시에도 밸브는 구조안전성과 그 성능을 보장해야 된다. 이 연구에서는 안티서지 밸브의 구조강도와 구조안정성 평가를 수치해석을 통하여 수행하였다. 형상모델은 유니그래픽스 NX4.0을 사용하였으며 시뮬레이션은 ANSYS Workbench 12.1 버전을 이용하였다. 밸브의 허용 강도와 안전계수는 ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code를 참조하였다.

The precise prediction of reserved carrying capacity of bridge as a system is extremely difficult especially when the bridges are highly redundant and significantly deteriorated or damaged. This paper is intended to propose a new approach for the evaluation of reserved system carrying capacity of bridges in terms of equivalent system-strength, which may be defined as a bridge system-strength corresponding to the system reliability of the bridge. This can be derived from an inverse process based on the concept of FOSM form of system reliability index. It may be emphasized that this approach is very useful for the evaluation of the deterministic system redundancy and reserve strength which are measured in terms of either probabilistic system redundancy factor and reserve factor or deterministic system redundancy factor and reserve factor. The system reliability of bridges is formulated as a parallel-series model obtained from the FAM(Failure Mode Approach) based on the major failure mechanisms. AFOSM and IST methods are used for the reliability analysis of the proposed models. The proposed approach and method for the system redundancy and reserve safety/strength are applied to the safety assessment of actual RC and steel box-girder bridges. The results of the evaluation of reserved system safety or bridge system-strength in terms of the system redundancy and the system safety/strength are significantly different from those of element reliability-based or conventional methods.

터보펌프를 구성하는 부분 조합체 중의 하나인 산화제 펌프의 인듀서와 임펠러에 대해서 정적 구조해석을 수행하였다. 먼저 온도, 원심력 및 압력의 영향을 각각 독립적으로 파악한 후 조합된 하중이 작용하는 경우에 대해서 인듀서와 임펠러의 거동을 살펴보았다. 설계된 형상과 재질에 대해서 구조적으로 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요소는 온도였으며, 모든 경우에 대해서 적절한 안전 여유를 갖는 것으로 예측되었다. 하지만 진동의 영향은 고려되지 않았기 때문에 회전부와 케이싱과의 간섭 여부를 정확히 파악하기 위해서는 추가적으로 진동 해석이 수행되어야 할 것이다.
