The dynamic analysis of trusses using the finite element method tends to overlook the effect of local member dynamic behavior on the overall response of the complete structure. This is due to the fact that the lateral inertias of the members are omitted from the global inertia terms in the structure mass matrix. In this paper a condensed dynamic stiffness matrix is formulated and used to calculate the exact dynamic properties of trusses without the need to increase the model size. In the examples the limitations of current solutions are presented together with the exact results obtained from the proposed method.

The unbalance response analysis is one of the essential area in the forced vibration analysis of rotor-bearing systems. Local bearing parameters in rotor-bearing systems are the major sources which give rise to a difficulty in unbalance response computation due to the complicated dynamic properties such as rotational speed dependency and anisotropy. In the present paper, an efficient method for unbalance responses is proposed so as to easily take into account bearing parameters in computation. An exact matrix condensation procedure is proposed which enables the present method to compute unbalance responses by dealing with condensed, small matrices. The proposed method causes no errors even though the computation procedure is based on the small matrices condensed from the full matrices. The present method is illustrated through a numerical example and compared with the conventional method.

고층 건물의 정확한 거동을 구하기 위한 구조 해석은 컴퓨터 적용의 중요한 분야로 취급되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 건축구조물에 대한 3차원적인 해석방법을 연구하였다. 이 해석 방법은 건물을 각각의 독립된 프레임의 조합체로 보고 해석하므로 매우 효율적이며, 건물의 3차원적인 거동에 관한 고려는 건물이나 하중이 대칭이 아닐 때는 특히 중요하다. 그리고 matrix condensation 기법을 이용함으로써 컴퓨터의 용량과 해석 시간이 상당히 절약되므로 매우 경제적이다. 본 논문의 건물 구조해석 컴퓨터 프로그램 PFS의 정확성과 효율성을 증명하기 위해 여러가지 예제들에 대해서 SAPIV 에 의한 해석 결과와 비교하였다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서 제안한 해석방법은 고층 건물의 구조 설계에서 매우 효율적이라 할 수 있다.

In this study, two beam-column elements based on the Elasto-Fiber element theory for reinforced concrete (RC) element have been developed and compared with each other. The first element is based on Elasto Fiber Approach (EFA) was initially developed for steel structures and this theory was applied for RC element in there and the second element is called as Fiber & Bernoulli-Euler element approach (FBEA). In this element, Cubic Hermitian polynomials are used for obtaining stiffness matrix. The beams or columns element in both approaches are divided into a sub-element called the segment for obtaining element stiffness matrix. The internal freedoms of this segment are dynamically condensed to the external freedoms at the ends of the element by using a dynamic substructure technique. Thus, nonlinear dynamic analysis of high RC building can be obtained within short times. In addition to, external loads of the segment are assumed to be distributed along to element. Therefore, damages can be taken account of along to element and redistributions of the loading for solutions. Bossak-${\alpha}$ integration with predicted-corrected method is used for the nonlinear seismic analysis of RC frames. For numerical application, seismic damage analyses for a 4-story frame and an 8-story RC frame with soft-story are obtained to comparisons of RC element according to both approaches. Damages evaluation and propagation in the frame elements are studied and response quantities from obtained both approaches are investigated in the detail.
