The main purpose of the present paper is to derive the induced (Finsler) connections on the hypersurface from the Finsler connections of Berwald type (a Berwald h-recurrent connection and a $F\Gamma$' connection) of a Finsler space and to seek the necessary and sufficient conditions that the induced connections coincide with the intrinsic connections. And we show the quantities and relations with respect to the respective induced connections. Finally we show some examples.

Mechanical connections are recognized as extremely important elements in the aspect of strength and structural safety. However, classical structural model does not consider the connection stiffness properties, and are based on models with pinned or rigid joints only. In fact, mechanical connections are deformable and behave not linearly, affecting the whole structure and inducing nonlinear behavior as well. The quantification of this effect, however, depends on the description of the working of the connectors and the wood response under embedment. The theoretical modeling of wood structures with semi-rigid connections involves not only the structural analysis, but also the modeling of both single and grouped moment resisting connectors and the study of the wood properties under embedment. The proposal of this paper is to approach these aspects, and to quantitatively study the influence of the moment resistant connection in wooden framed structures. Comparisons between rigid and semi-rigid connections and between linear and nonlinear analysis lead to quantitative results.

In the present study, a numerical analysis was performed for interior connections of continuous flat plate to analyze the effect of column section shape on the behavioral characteristics of the connections. For the purpose, a computer program for nonlinear FE analysis was developed, and the validity was verified. Through the parametric study, the variations of shear stress distribution around the connection were investigated. According to the result of numerical analysis, the column section shape has a serious effect on the behavior of the connections. As the length of the cross section of column in the direction of lateral load increases, the effective area and the shear strength at the sides providing the torsional resistance decrease considerably. Therefore the strength model for the flat plate-column connections should be modified by considering the effect of column section shape on the behavior of the connections.

In this paper, 'lifetime-temperature rise model' based on the 'lifetime-resistance model' is theoretically Proposed, in order to find out the evaluation method of degradation and the residual lifetime by use of infrared image camera for electric connections/contacts. Two assumptions have been builded up for the 'lifetime-temperature rise model': one is associated with the linear relationship between the temperature ism ΔK and contact resistance, and the other the functional relationship between the temperature of electric connections/contacts and the operating time presenting in the 'lifetime-resistance model'. To prove the proposed model, experiments have been performed for various electric connections/contacts. From the experimental results, measured values were quite similar to the calculated values, which proved the above-mentioned two assumptions. Therefore, by use of 'lifetime-temperature rise model', it is possible to estimate the trend of degradation and the residual lifetime for electric connections/contacts through the temperature measurements .

Seismic performances of dual steel moment-resisting frames with mixed use of rigid and semi-rigid connections were investigated to control of the base shear, story drifts and the ductility demand of the elements. To this end, nonlinear seismic responses of three groups of frames with three, eight and fifteen story were evaluated. These frames with rigid, semi-rigid and combined configuration of rigid and semi-rigid connections were analyzed under five earthquake records and their responses were compared in ultimate limit state of rigid frame. This study showed that in all frames, it could be found a state of semi-rigidity and connections configuration which behaved better than rigid frame, with consideration of the base shear and story drifts criterion. Finally, some criteria were suggested to locate the best place of the semi-rigid connections for improvement of the seismic performance of steel moment-resisting frames.

After observing relatively poor performance of bolted web-welded flange beam-to-column connections during 1994 Northridge earthquake, various types of connections based on two concepts of: (i) strengthening the connection; and (ii) weakening the beam ends were proposed. Among these modified or newly proposed connections, bolted T-stub connection follows the concept of strengthening. One of the connections with the idea of weakening the beam ends is reduced beam section (RBS). In this paper, finite element simulation is used to study the cyclic behavior of a new proposed connection developed by using a combination of both mentioned concepts. Investigated connections are exterior beam-to-column connections designed to comply with AISC provisions. The results show that moment capacity and dissipated energy of the new proposed connection is almost the same as those computed for a T-stub connection and higher than corresponding values for an RBS connection.

Fire safety is one of the most significant issues for the design of mid-rise and high-rise timber structures. A large number of experimental tests were conducted during the last three decades to investigate the fire performance of the dowel-type timber connections. Many influenced parameters (e.g. the thickness of the side timber, the load ratio, the fasteners type etc.) were considered in those experiments. Relevant calculated models were proposed by previous researchers to estimate the fire resistance of the connections. In this study, a series of experimental programs of dowel-type connections in fire are collected. Then, empirical formulas proposed by EN 1995-1-2, Fire safety in timber buildings, and previous researchers are presented and analyzed. The accuracy of those formulas is checked by comparisons between the experimental data and estimated results. The collected experimental research and empirical formulas can be used as the reference for the fire design of dowel-type timber connections in the future.

본 논문은 소성변형(plastic deformation)특성을 갖는 직물의 움직임을 시뮬레이션하는 기법을 제안한다. 소성은 탄성과 반대되는 개념으로, 물질이 외부의 힘에 의해 변형되었을 때, 초기상태로 완전히 회복되지 못하는 성질이다. 직물은 파티클 모델(particle model)을 이용하여 모델링하며, 파티클간의 상호작용은 바로 인접한 파티클간의 순차연결과 한 파티클 건너에 있는 파티클간의 교차연결을 설정함으로써 표현한다. 순차연결은 직물의 압축과 인장변형을, 교차연결은 직물의 굽힙변형을 표현한다. 연결은 스프링으로 모델링하는데, 순차연결은 탄성스프링으로, 교차연결은 변형정도에 따라, 탄성스프링 또는 소성스프링으로 모델링한다. 본 논문은 기존의 파티클 모델에서 사용하는 탄성스프링에 소성스프링을 추가하여 직물의 소성변형 현상을 표현한 것이다. 그 결과, 굽힘주름과 영구변형된 구김주름, 그리고 주름이 직물 전체에 고루 분포되는 현상을 시뮬레이션할 수 있었다. 연결의 탄성스프링과 소성스프링을 모델링할 때 직물운동방정식 수치해법의 안정성을 보장하기 위해 직물 시스템의 강성 메트릭스 (stiffness matrix)가 indefinite이 되지 않도록 주의를 기울였다.

본 연구에서는 1994년 미국 노스리지 지진 이전에 건설된 기존 철골 건물의 용접형 철골 박스기둥과 보 접합부의 내진성능을 반복재하 실험에 의해 평가하였다. 실험결과에 의하면 노스리지 지진 이전 접합상세를 갖는 박스기둥과 보 접합부에서도 H-형강 기둥과 보 접합부 실험결과와 유사하게 취성파단이 발생하였다. 하지만, 박스기둥과 보 접합부에서의 플랜지 응력전달 경로가 H-형강 기둥과 보 접합부에서의 것과 상당한 차이가 있고 또한 박스기둥의 형상에 따라 균열 전파의 형태가 다를 수 있다는 것이 밝혀졌다. 따라서 용접형 철골 박스기둥과 보 접합부의 내진성능을 향상시키기 위해서는 H-형강 기둥과 보 접합부에 대한 기존 연구결과를 그대로 적용하기보다는 박스기둥에 적합한 접합부의 보강상세 개발이 요구된다.

This article presents a comparative study of the effect of steel layouts on the seismic behavior of transition steel-concrete composite connections, both experimental and analytical investigations of concrete filled steel tube-reinforced concrete (CFST-RC) and steel reinforecd concrete-reinforced concrete (SRC-RC) structures were conducted. The steel-concrete composite connections were subjected to combined constant axial load and lateral cyclic displacements. Tests were carried out on four full-scale connections extracted from a real project engineering with different levels of axial force. The effect of steel layouts on the mechanical behavior of the transition connections was evaluated by failure modes, hysteretic behavior, backbone curves, displacement ductility, energy dissipation capacity and stiffness degradation. Test results showed that different steel layouts led to significantly different failure modes. For CFST-RC transition specimens, the circular cracks of the concrete at the RC column base was followed by steel yielding at the bottom of the CFST column. While uncoordinated deformation could be observed between SRC and RC columns in SRC-RC transition specimens, the crushing and peeling damage of unconfined concrete at the SRC column base was more serious. The existences of I-shape steel and steel tube avoided the pinching phenomenon on the hysteresis curve, which was different from the hysteresis curve of the general reinforced concrete column. The hysteresis loops were spindle-shaped, indicating excellent seismic performance for these transition composite connections. The average values of equivalent viscous damping coefficients of the four specimens are 0.123, 0.186 and 0.304 corresponding to the yielding point, peak point and ultimate point, respectively. Those values demonstrate that the transition steel-concrete composite connections have great energy dissipating capacity. Based on the experimental research, a high-fidelity ABAQUS model was established to further study the influence of concrete strength, steel grade and longitudinal reinforcement ratio on the mechanical behavior of transition composite connections.
