The reinforced-concrete multi-story shear-wall structure, which can free a building from beams and columns to allow the planning of a vast room, has increasingly been used in Japan as a high-rise reinforced-concrete structure. Since this structural system concentrates the seismic force onto multi-story shear walls inside, the bending deformation of the walls may cause excessive deformation on the upper floors during an earthquake. However, it is possible to control the bending deformation to within a certain level by setting high-strength and rigid beams (outriggers) at the top of the multi-story shear walls; these outriggers restrain the bending behavior of the walls. Moreover, it is possible to achieve high energy dissipation by placing vibration control devices on the outriggers and thus restrain the bending behavior. This paper outlines the earthquake response analysis of a high-rise residential tower to demonstrate the effectiveness of the outrigger frame incorporating vibration control devices.

Most yacht sails are made of thin fabric, and they have a cambered shape to generate lift force; however, their shape can be easily deformed by wind pressure. Deformation of the sail shape changes the flow characteristics over the sail, which in turn further deforms the sail shape. Therefore, fluid-structure interaction (FSI) analysis is applied for the precise evaluation or optimization of the sail design. In this study, fluid flow analyses are performed for the main sail of a 30-foot yacht, and the results are applied to loading conditions for structural analyses. By applying the supporting forces from the rig, such as the mast and boom-end outhaul, as boundary conditions for structural analysis, the deformed sail shape is identified. Both the flow analyses and the structural analyses are iteratively carried out for the deformed sail shape. A comparison of the flow characteristics and surface pressures over the deformed sail shape with those over the initial shape shows that a considerable difference exists between the two and that FSI analysis is suitable for application to sail design.

기계 가공에서 사용되는 엔드밀의 사용 시, 공작물과 엔드밀 사이에 발생되는 응력과 밀링기계의 회전력과 공작물 가공에 사용되는 압력으로 인한 세 가지 엔드밀 모델들의 구조적 변형들을 시뮬레이션 해석에 의해서 연구한다. 이 결과들은 구조 및 피로해석으로 이루어진다. 해석 결과, Model 1이 Model 2나 Model 3보다 덜 변형되는 것을 알 수 있다. 그리고 최대 등가응력은 Model 1이 다른 형상의 모델에 비하여 가장 작은 것을 확인할 수 있으며, 3개의 모델 중 Model 1이 다른 모델에 비하여 더 큰 힘을 견딜 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구의 결과를 엔드밀의 설계에 응용한다면, 그 파손 방지 및 내구성을 검토하는데 유용하게 활용될 것으로 사료된다.

Shear deformation effects are neglected in most structural system identification methods. This assumption might lead to important errors in some structures like built up steel or composite deep beams. Recently, the observability techniques were presented as one of the first methods for the inverse analysis of structures including the shear effects. In this way, the mechanical properties of the structures could be obtained from the nodal movements measured on static tests. One of the main controversial features of this procedure is the fact that the measurement set must include rotations. This characteristic might be especially problematic in those structures where rotations cannot be measured. To solve this problem and to increase its applicability, this paper proposes an update of the observability method to enable the structural identification including shear effects by measuring only vertical deflections. This modification is based on the introduction of a numerical optimization method. With this aim, the inverse analysis of several examples of growing complexity are presented to illustrate the validity and potential of the updated method.

One common method to select input ground motions to predict dynamic behavior of structures subjected to seismic excitation requires spectral acceleration (S_a) match target mean response spectrum. However, dispersion of ground motions, which explicitly affects the structural response, is rarely discussed in this method. Generally, selecting ground motions matching target mean and variance has been utilized as an appropriate method to predict reliable seismic response. The goal of this paper is to investigate the impact of target spectra variance of ground motions on structural seismic response. Two sets of ground motions with different target variances (zero variance and minimum variance larger than inherent variance of the target spectrum) are selected as input to two different structures. Structural responses at different heights are compared, in terms of peak, mean and dispersion. Results show that increase of target spectra variance tends to increase peak floor acceleration, peak deformation and dispersions of response of interest remarkably. To short-period structures, dispersion increase ratios of seismic response are close to that of S_a of input ground motions at the first period. To long-period structures, dispersions of floor acceleration and floor response spectra increase more significantly at the bottom, while dispersion increase ratios of IDR and deformation are close to that of S_a of input ground motions at the first period. This study could further provide useful information on selecting appropriate ground motion to predict seismic behavior of different types of structures.

최근 성능에 근거한 설계법의 개발과 더불어, 변위설계에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다층 RC 골조의 변위성능을 보다 정확하게 평가할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 골조의 횡변위를 계산하기 위해서 보와 기둥의 변형뿐만 아니라 정착부와 조인트 부분의 변형을 변위 산정시 고려하였다. 기존의 실험 및 계산결과의 비교로부터, 본 연구에서 제시한 방법의 적합성을 확인하였고, 이를 강한 기둥-약한 보의 설계개념을 설계된 다층 RC골조 건물에 적용하여 그 거동을 예측하였다. 그 결과, 보다 정확한 건물의 변위성능을 평가하기 위해서는 정착부와 조인트의 변형을 반드시 반영하여야 하는 것으로 나타났다.

A first order shear deformable Loop-subdivision triangular element which can handle transverse shear deformation of moderately thick shell is developed. The developed element is general since it includes the effect of transverse shear deformation and has standard six degrees of freedom per node.(three translations and three rotations) The quartic box-spline function is employed as interpolation basis function. Numerical examples for the benchmark problems are analyzed in order to assess the performance of the newly developed subdivision shell element. Both in the uniform and in the distorted mesh configurations.

In this study, a geometric nonlinear analysis formulation for spatial frames is developed using the 3D stability functions. For the formulation, the relationships of local and global coordinate systems in force, deformation, and the initial and current configurations of a frame are derived. The force-deformation relationship in global coordinate system is derived as well. The developed formulation is verified in each derivation by reducing the derived equations into 2D equations. The gradual plastification of connections and critical sections can be implemented effectively to this formulation for the complete second order inelastic advanced analysis of spatial frames.

Approximate Constant Shear Angle Theory is usually used to take a transversal shear deformation of thick plate into consideration, which cannot be effectively considered the influence of transversal warping of cross-section with an increase of thickness. It right be the best way to represent the exact warping of cross-section. In this study, the derivation of warping function is attempted, and the effect of shear deformation and transversal warping is to be considered through the nolinear analysis of plate.
