This paper presents a LMI(linear matrix inequality)-based fuzzy approach of modeling and active vibration control of geometrically nonlinear flexible plates with piezoelectric materials as actuators and sensors. The large-amplitude vibration characteristics and dynamic partial differential equation of a piezoelectric flexible rectangular thin plate structure are obtained by using generalized Fourier series and numerical integral. Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model is employed to approximate the nonlinear structural system, which combines the fuzzy inference rule with the local linear state space model. A robust fuzzy dynamic output feedback control law based on the T-S fuzzy model is designed by the parallel distributed compensation (PDC) technique, and stability analysis and disturbance rejection problems are guaranteed by LMI method. The simulation result shows that the fuzzy dynamic output feedback controller based on a two-rule T-S fuzzy model performs well, and the vibration of plate structure with geometrical nonlinearity is suppressed, which is less complex in computation and can be practically implemented.

This paper focuses on large deflection static behavior of edge cracked simple supported beams subjected to a non-follower transversal point load at the midpoint of the beam by using the total Lagrangian Timoshenko beam element approximation. The cross section of the beam is circular. The cracked beam is modeled as an assembly of two sub-beams connected through a massless elastic rotational spring. It is known that large deflection problems are geometrically nonlinear problems. The considered highly nonlinear problem is solved considering full geometric non-linearity by using incremental displacement-based finite element method in conjunction with Newton-Raphson iteration method. There is no restriction on the magnitudes of deflections and rotations in contradistinction to von-Karman strain displacement relations of the beam. The beams considered in numerical examples are made of Aluminum. In the study, the effects of the location of crack and the depth of the crack on the non-linear static response of the beam are investigated in detail. The relationships between deflections, end rotational angles, end constraint forces, deflection configuration, Cauchy stresses of the edge-cracked beams and load rising are illustrated in detail in nonlinear case. Also, the difference between the geometrically linear and nonlinear analysis of edge-cracked beam is investigated in detail.

본 논문에서는 기 개발된 로터 블레이드 해석 모델 중 구조 모델을 보완하여 기존에 수행한 HART II의 연구결과와 비교하였다. 구조 모델은 혼합변분 정식화 기반의 기하학적 정밀 보 모델이며, 블레이드의 기하학적 비선형 거동을 정밀하게 예측할 수 있다. 기존 해석 결과에서는 비틀림 변형과 구조하중 결과에서 실험결과 대비 위상차가 발생하였는데 본 연구에서는 기존 결과 대비 위상차가 현저히 감소한 결과를 도출하였다.

A new simple 3-node triangular flat-shell element with standard nodal DOF (6 DOF per node) is proposed for the linear and geometrically nonlinear analysis of very thin to thick plate and shell structures. The formulation of element GT9 (Long and Xu 1994), a generalized conforming membrane element with rigid rotational freedoms, is employed as the membrane component of the new shell element. Both one-point reduced integration scheme and a corresponding stabilization matrix are adopted for avoiding membrane locking and hourglass phenomenon. The bending component of the new element comes from a new generalized conforming Kirchhoff-Mindlin plate element TSL-T9, which is derived in this paper based on semiLoof constrains and rational shear interpolation. Thus the convergence can be guaranteed and no shear locking will happen. Furthermore, a simple hybrid procedure is suggested to improve the stress solutions, and the Updated Lagrangian formulae are also established for the geometrically nonlinear problems. Numerical results with solutions, which are solved by some other recent element models and the models in the commercial finite element software ABAQUS, are presented. They show that the proposed element, denoted as GMST18, exhibits excellent and better performance for the analysis of thin-think plates and shells in both linear and geometrically nonlinear problems.

3차원 편심 보요소의 기하학적 비선형 해석에서 증분 평형식을 유도하는 일반적인 방법의 대부분은 비선형을 고려한 가상일의 평형방정식을 선형화하는 방법으로, 회전증분이 미소하다는 가정에 의해서 선형화된 증분 평형식을 유도하고, 구조물의 변형이 일어나는 동안에 발생하는 유한회전의 영향은 반복계산의 과정에서 고려하는 방법이다. 그리고 유한회전을 고려하는 개선된 방법으로 Surana와 Onate 등에 의해서 개발되었는데, Surana는 비선형 절점함수를 가정하였고, Onate는 회전행렬의 관계식을 이차항까지 고려하여 비선형 증분 평형식을 유도하였다. 본 논문에서는 비선형 해석의 증분이론(incremental theory)을 도입, $^{t+dt}U_i$ 변위증분을 Talyer 급수로 2차항까지 전개하므로서 1차 선형항($U_L$)과 2차 유한회전항($U_R$)으로 표시하여 연속체운동의 비선형 증분평형식에서 유한회전의 영향을 고려하는 방법을 사용하였다. 이상의 해석방법에 따른 수치해석 결과는 Surana와 Onate등에 의하여 다루어진 예제와 비교 하였다.

In this paper, geometrically nonlinear free vibration analysis of Mindlin viscoelastic plates with various geometrical and material properties is studied based on the Von-Karman assumptions. A novel solution is proposed in which the nonlinear frequencies of time-dependent plates are predicted according to the nonlinear frequencies of plates not dependent on time. This method greatly reduces the cost of calculations. The viscoelastic properties obey the Boltzmann integral law with constant bulk modulus. The SHPC meshfree method is employed for spatial discretization. The Laplace transformation is used to convert equations from the time domain to the Laplace domain and vice versa. Solving the nonlinear complex eigenvalue problem in the Laplace-Carson domain numerically, the nonlinear frequencies, the nonlinear viscous damping frequencies, and the nonlinear damping ratios are verified and calculated for rectangular, skew, trapezoidal and circular plates with different boundary conditions and different material properties.

다양한 산업 분야의 구조물은 여러 부구조의 조합으로 구성되며, 시스템의 자유도 또한 무수히 많다. 높은 복잡성을 가지는 구조물의 해석 및 계산 효율을 향상시키기 위해서 해석 모델의 단순화 및 자유도 축소가 요구된다. 지난 50여 년 동안 규모가 큰 공학적 문제를 단순화하기 위해 다양한 부분구조화 기법들이 개발되어 왔다. 이러한 부분구조화 기법들은 Newton-Raphson 알고리즘 등과 같은 반복계산을 동반하는 비선형 구조해석 문제 해석에 매우 효과적이다. 본 논문에서는 기 개발된 비선형 부분구조화 기법 중의 하나인 모드미분(modal derivatives)을 이용하여 기하비선형 보의 모델 축소에 적용하고자 한다. 모드미분은 모드 기반 축소 기저의 2차항의 형태로, 선형모드의 조합으로 근사 가능한 변위벡터를 미소변위에 대한 Taylor 급수를 통해 확인할 수 있으며, 시스템의 고유치 문제를 모드 좌표로 미분을 함으로써 얻어진다. 모드미분에는 비선형 접선 강성행렬의 미분을 포함하고 있으며, 이는 유한차분법 등의 근사를 통해 계산할 수 있다. 제안된 방법론은 기하학적 비선형 문제에 우수한 성능을 보이는 동시회전 유한요소법에 적용하였다. 수치예제를 통해 보의 경계가 수평으로 움직일 수 있는 문제에서는 기존의 모드축소기법이 매우 비효율적임을 알 수 있었다. 한편 모드미분을 이용한 축소기법은 다양한 경계조건에 대하여 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

Wind loading is very important in structural design of large-span single-layer reticulated shell structures. In this paper, a geometrically nonlinear wind-induced vibration analysis strategy for large-span single-layer reticulated shell structures based on the nonlinear finite element method is introduced. According to this strategy, a computation program has been developed. With the information of the wind pressure distribution measured simultaneously in the wind tunnel, nonlinear dynamic analysis, including dynamic instability analysis, for the wind-induced vibration of a single-layer reticulated shell is conducted as an example to investigate the efficiency of the strategy. Finally, suggestions are given for dynamic wind-resistant analysis of single-layer reticulated shells.

The behaviour of beam-to-column connections plays an important role in the analysis and design of steel structures. A computer-based method is presented for nonlinear steel frames with semi-rigid connections accounting for shear deformations. The analytical procedure employs transcendental stability functions to model the effect of axial force on the stiffness of members. The member stiffness matrix, and the fixed end forces for various loads were found. The nonlinear analysis method is applied for three planar steel structures. The method is readily implemented on a computer using matrix structural analysis techniques and is applicable for the efficient nonlinear analysis of frameworks.

The finite element analysis of plate and shell structures has been one of the major research interests for many years because of the technological importance of such structures. Quite often these structures are constructed by laminated composites. This is due to the high specific stiffness and strength of composite structures. The main objective of this paper is to extend the use of an improved degenerated shell element to the large displacement analysis of plates and shells with laminated composites. The total Lagrangian approach has been chosen for the definition of the deformation and the solution to the nonlinear equilibrium equations is obtained by the Newton-Raphson method.
