In this study, the dynamic instabilities of a beam, subjected to periodic short impulsive loading, are investigated using simple 2-DoF beam model. The behaviors of beam model whose axial motions are constrained are studied for the case of elastic and elastic-plastic behavior. In the case of elastic behavior, the chaotic responses due to the periodic pulse are identified, and the characteristics of the behavior are analysed by investigating the fractal attractors in the Poincare map. The short-term and long-term responses of the beam are unpredictable because of the extreme sensitivities to parameters, a hallmark of chaotic response. In the case of elastic-plastic behavior, the responses are governed by the plastic strains which occur continuously and irregularly as time increases. Thus the characteristics of the response behavior change continuously due to the plastic strain increments, and are unpredictable as well as the elastic case.

This paper presents a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar(SHPB) technique to obtain compressive stress-strain data for rubber materials. An experimental technique that modifies the conventional Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar(SHPB) has been developed for measuring the compressive stress-strain responses of materials with low mechanical impedance and low compressive strengths such as rubber. This paper introduces an all-polymeric pressure bar which achieves a closer impedance match between the pressure bar and the specimen materials. In addition, we are a pulse shaper to lengthen the rising time of the incident wave to ensure stress equilibrium and homogeneous deformation of a rubber materials. It is found that the modified technique can be determine the dynamic deformation behavior of an NBR rubber more accurately.

In this study a numerical method for soil-pile interaction analysis buried in multi-layered half planes is presented in frequency domain using FE-BE coupling. The total soil-pile interaction system is divided into two parts so called far field and near field beam elements are used for modeling a pile and coupled with plain strain elements for soil modeling. Boundary element formulation using the multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution is adopted to the far field and coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the proposed soil-pile interaction analysis method the dynamic responses of a pile on multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution is adopted to the far field and coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the proposed soil-pile interaction analysis method the dynamic responses of a pile on multi-layered half-planes are performed and compared with experiment results. Through this developed method the dynamic response analysis of a pile buried in multi-layered half planes can be calculated effectively in frequency domain.

최근 해상 교량 기초 시공 중 차수 및 연직 하중을 지지하는 역할을 수행하는 대형 원형 강관 가설 공법이 제안되었다. 하지만, 대형 원형 강관의 시공 및 운용 중에 발생할 수 있는 선박 충돌과 같은 위부 요인은 구조물의 안정성에 악영향을 줄 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 외부 충격에 의한 대형 원형 강관의 동적 반응을 평가할 수 있는 기법을 개발하기 위해 실내 실험을 통한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 실내 실험에서는 해상에 설치된 대형 원형 강관을 모사하기 위하여 소형 모형 강관을 토조에 설치하였고, 토조 속 흙의 높이와 수위는 각각 23cm와 25cm로 설정하였다. 수위는 40cm, 55cm, 70cm로 변화시켜가며 실험을 수행하였다. 선박 충돌을 모사하기 위하여 모형 강관의 상부를 해머로 타격하였으며, 모형 강관의 길이 방향으로 설치된 변형률계와 상부에 설치된 가속도계로 신호를 측정하였다. 실험결과, 변형률계로 측정된 변형률이 모형 강관의 상부에서 하부로 내려갈수록 감소하였다. 변형률계로 측정된 신호의 주파수는 충격이 가해지면 상시미진동 주파수보다 크게 증가하였지만, 수위 아래에 위치한 변형률계에서 측정된 주파수는 큰 증가를 나타내지 않았다. 가속도계로 측정된 신호의 최대 주파수는 충격이 가해지면 상시미진동 주파수보다 크게 증가하였다. 수위가 증가하면 최대 주파수는 감소하지만, 상시미진동 주파수보다는 크게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 변형률계와 가속도계가 대형 원형 강관의 동적 반응 특성을 평가하는데 유용한 지표가 될 수 있음을 보여준다.

The nonlinear behaviors of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) frame structure are investigated by numerical simulation method with 3-D finite fiber elements. The dynamic characteristics and the seismic performance of the RAC frame structure are analyzed and validated with the shaking table test results. Specifically, the natural frequency and the typical responses (e.g., storey deformation, capacity curve, etc.) from Model 1 (exclusion of strain rate effect) and Model 2 (inclusion of strain rate effect) are analyzed and compared. It is revealed that Model 2 is more likely to provide a better match between the numerical simulation and the shaking table test as key attributes of seismic behaviors of the frame structure are captured by this model. For the purpose to examine how seismic behaviors of the RAC frame structure vary under different strain rates in a real seismic situation, a numerical simulation is performed by varying the strain rate. The storey displacement response and the base shear for the RAC frame structure under different strain rates are investigated and analyzed. It is implied that the structural behavior of the RAC frame structure is significantly influenced by the strain rate effect. On one hand, the storey displacements vary slightly in the trend of decreasing with the increasing strain rate. On the other hand, the base shear of the RAC frame structure under dynamic loading conditions increases with gradually increasing amplitude of the strain rate.

This study has been motivated to examine the performance of a wireless sensor system under the typhoons as well as to analyze the effect of the typhoons on the bridge's vibration responses and the variation of cable forces. During the long-term field experiment on a real cable-stayed bridge in years 2011-2012, the bridge had experienced two consecutive typhoons, Bolaven and Tembin, and the wireless sensor system had recorded data of wind speeds and vibration responses from a few survived sensor nodes. In this paper, the wireless structural health monitoring of stay cables under the two consecutive typhoons is presented. Firstly, the wireless monitoring system for cable-stayed bridge is described. Multi-scale vibration sensor nodes are utilized to measure both acceleration and PZT dynamic strain from stay cables. Also, cable forces are estimated by a tension force monitoring software based on vibration properties. Secondly, the cable-stayed bridge with the wireless monitoring system is described and its wireless monitoring capacities for deck and cables are evaluated. Finally, the structural health monitoring of stay cables under the attack of the two typhoons is described. Wind-induced deck vibration, cable vibration and cable force variation are examined based on the field measurements in the cable-stayed bridge under the two consecutive typhoons.

본 논문에서는 건물의 횡방향 구조반응을 평가하기 위한 변형률 기반의 모니터링 기법이 제시되고, 이에 대한 기초 연구로써, 구조해석을 통해 제안된 기법을 검증한다. 광섬유 격자 센서(fiber Bragg grating, FBG)는 일반 변형률 센서와 비교하여 내구성이 뛰어날 뿐 아니라 높은 샘플링 수와 여러 지점을 동시에 계측할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이러한 특성 때문에 FBG 센서는 구조 모니터링을 위해 많은 센서가 요구되는 건물의 모니터링에 적합하다. 본 연구에서 FBG 센서는 수직 부재의 변형률을 계측하며, 이는 해당 부재의 곡률을 평가한다. 이러한 곡률은 횡변위와 횡가속도를 평가하는데 사용된다. 추가적으로 횡방향 가속도는 frequency domain decomposition(FDD) 기법을 이용하여 구조물의 고유진동수와 모드형상을 추정하는데 사용된다. 9층 철골모멘트 골조 예제의 적용을 통해, 제시된 기법이 건물의 다양한 횡방향 구조 반응과 동적 특성을 평가하는데 적절함을 확인하였다.

The effect of dead loads on dynamic responses of a uniform elastic beam subjected to moving loads is examined by means of a governing equation which takes into account initial bending stresses due to dead loads. First, the governing equation of beams which includes the effect of dead loads is briefly presented from the author's paper (1990, 1991, 2010). The effect of dead loads is considered by a strain energy produced by conservative initial stresses caused by the dead loads. Second, the effect of dead loads on dynamical responses produced by moving loads in simply supported beams is confirmed by the results of numerical computations using the Galerkin method and Wilson-${\theta}$ method. It is shown that the dynamical responses by moving loads are decreased remarkably on a heavyweight beam when the effect of dead loads is included. Third, an approximate solution of dynamic deflections including the effect of dead loads for a uniform beam subjected to moving loads is presented in a closed-form for the case without the additional mass due to moving loads. The proposed solution shows a good agreement with results of numerical computations with the Galerkin method and Wilson-${\theta}$ method. Finally it is clarified that the effect of dead loads on elastic uniform beams subjected to moving loads acts on the restraint of the transverse vibration for the both cases without and with the additional mass due to moving loads.

Quantitatively modeling and propagating all sources of uncertainty stand at the core of seismic fragility assessment of structures. This paper investigates the effects of various sources of uncertainty on seismic responses and seismic fragility estimates of single-layer reticulated domes. Sensitivity analyses are performed to examine the sensitivity of typical seismic responses to uncertainties in structural modeling parameters, and the results suggest that the variability in structural damping, yielding strength, steel ultimate strain, dead load and snow load has significant effects on the seismic responses, and these five parameters should be taken as random variables in the seismic fragility assessment. Based on this, fragility estimates and fragility curves incorporating different levels of uncertainty are obtained on the basis of the results of incremental dynamic analyses on the corresponding set of 40 sample models generated by Latin Hypercube Sampling method. The comparisons of these fragility curves illustrate that, the inclusion of only ground motion uncertainty is inappropriate and inadequate, and the appropriate way is incorporating the variability in the five identified structural modeling parameters as well into the seismic fragility assessment of single-layer reticulated domes.

A new BWIM(bridge weigh-in-motion) algorithm using both measured strain and acceleration data is proposed. To consider the effects of bridge vibration on the estimation of moving loads, the dynamic governing equation is applied with the known stiffness and mass properties but damping is ignored. Dynamic displacements are computed indirectly from the measured strains using the beam theory and accelerations are measured directly by accelerometers. To convert a unit moving load to its equivalent nodal force, a transformation matrix is determined. The incompleteness in the measured responses is considered in developing the algorithm. To examine the proposed BWIM algorithm, simulation studies, laboratory experiments and field tests were carried. In the simulation study, effects of measurement noise and estimation error in the vehicle speed on the results were investigated.
