Full scale structural test of 765kv electric transmission tower was performed to measure the stresses and displacement of towers under the design loadings, and the results were compared with analytical results based on three dimensional frame analysis. Also, the actual ultimate strength of the tower was measured through destructive test. Especially, to predict the behavior and failure of the connection of tubular member, finite element analysis was performed and compression test for the segments of tubular member were carried out. Valuable information for the overall and local behavior of the tower was obtained and reliability of current analytical method was confirmed.

Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP)s have various advantages for construction material in that they are noncorrosive and very strong. FRPs are economical and effective for management and maintenance when applied to footbridge, beam or deck of the bridge, girder, and marine structure. For safety, optimal design for standard modulation of the cross section is necessary. Conditions of optimum are possibilities of domestic production, modular assembly, and structure materials cast in compressed area.

The critical load of a continuous compression member was determined by the beam-analogy method. The proposed method utilizes the stress-analysis results of the analogous continuous beam, where imaginary concentrated lateral load changing its direction is applied at each midspan. The proposed method gives a lower bound error of critical load and can predict the span that buckles first. The effective length factors for braced frame columns can be easily determined by the present method, but result in the upper bound errors in all cases, which can lead to a conservative structural design.

A plane stress yield function YLD2000(Yoon et al., 2000) is applied to the finite element analysis S/W Z-Stamp because it is required to conduct proper consideration of aluminum alloy which has anomalous behavior. In the previous study, verification of the yield function and developed S/W is implemented. In this paper, two real parts of automobile body are additionally considered to verify the validity of Z-Stamp. The one is the benchmark problem #2 of Numisheet 2005 and the other is a small member part. In case of benchmark problem, formability simulation result and try-out result are compared with each other. In case of the small member part, formability analysis is implemented to predict the problem during the developing time.

기계구조물을 슬리브 없이 볼트-너트 체결하는 경우 판재의 강성에 대해서는 많은 연구가 진행되어 신뢰할 수 있는 이론이 보고되어 있다. 그러나 토목 분야에서 많이 사용되는 슬리브가 있는 볼트-너트 체결부에 대한 연구는 미진한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 슬리브가 있는 경우 볼트-너트로 체결된 판재의 강성을 계산하는 공식을 유도하고 이를 콘크리트 구조물의 예에 적용하였다. 제안된 공식의 결과를 단순합산식과 유한요소법에 의한 결과와 비교하여 그 타당성과 유용성을 밝혔다. 본 연구에서 제안한 공식은 슬리브가 있는 체결부의 판재 강성을 계산하는데 유용하게 사용할 수 있을 것이다.

The energy absorbing characteristics of crash members in a car collision play an important role in controlling the amount of damage to the passenger compartment. Crash members filled with aluminum foam are expected to have reduced mass while maintaining or even improving the crashworthiness compared to the conventional hollow-beam types. Finite element simulations are carried out in the present work to assess the improvement of crashworthiness by the use of aluminum foam fillers. The numerical results agreed well with experimental measurements. Parametric studies are conducted to analyze the effect of impact velocity, weld strength, and initiator on the crash response.

When water inside the concrete member evaporates by high temperature, the evaporation heat which absorbs surrounding temperature occurs. The rate of increment of the internal temperature in concrete is reduced due to the evaporation heat in spite of continuously increasing external temperature. In this paper, the prediction method of internal temperature of high strength concrete members considering the evaporation heat under the high temperature is presented. Finite element method is employed to facilitate thermal analysis for any position of member. And the thermal characteristics models of high strength concrete affected by high temperature are proposed. To demonstrate the validity of this numerical procedure, the prediction by the proposed algorithm is compared with the test results of other researchers. The proposed algorithm shows a good agreement with the experimental results including the phenomenon that temperature is lost by the evaporation heat.

When the compression members have the variable cross sections along their member axes, the determination of the elastic critical loads by classical methods becomes impossible and if possible involves complicated calculation only to obtain the approximate values of critical load. In this paper the elastic critical load coefficients of the tapered members with simply supported ends were determined by finite element method. And then the results were represented by simple algebraic equations of two parameters, a( =taper parameter) and m ( = sectional property parameter). One the basis of algebraic equations, the equivalent moment of inertia concept originally proposed by Bleich for a spesific case, are extended to the general cases.

Urban railway systems are located under populated areas and are mostly constructed for underground structures which demand high standards of structural safety. However, the damage progression of underground structures is hard to evaluate and damaged underground structures may not effectively stand against successive earthquakes. This study attempts to examine initial damage-stage and to access structural damage condition of the ground structures using Earthquake Damage Monitoring (EDM) system. For actual underground structure, vulnerable damaged member of Ulchiro-3ga station is chosen by finite element analysis using applied artificial earthquake load, and then damage pattern and history of damaged members is obtained from measured acceleration data introduced unsupervised learning recognition. The result showed damage index obtained by damage scenario establishment using acceleration response of selected vulnerable members is useful. Initial damage state is detected for selected vulnerable member according to established damage scenario. Stiffness degrading ratio is increasing whereas the value of reliability interval is decreasing.

해양구조물의 원통조인트에 대한 피로 수명 산출이 전통적으로 실험적 방법에만 의존해 왔음은,원통조인트의 구조가 복잡하여 용접부위 균열의 응력확대 계수 계산이 거의 불가능 했든 것이 주 원인이었다. 최근에 유한요소 3차원 모델을 이용한 계산방법이 개발되어 심히 구조적으로 복잡한 표면 균열의 응력확대계수 산출이 용이하게 되었다. 해양 구조물의 원통조인트에 대한 피로 수명 산출법을 개발하기 위한 연속되는 3부작의 제1부로서 본 논문은 X형 원통 조인트 용접주위 표면 균열의 응력확대 계수 거동을 분석하고 있다. 분석결과를 이용하여 응력확대계수를 엄격한 방법에 의해 계산하였다. 계산된 응력확대계수를 구조적인 관점에서 해석하고 있다.
