Cyclic loading tests were carried out on six half-scale reinforced concrete beam-column subassemblages designed to the current Chinese Seismic Design Code for Buildings. The deformation behavior and restoring force characteristics of the subassemblages were studied. Emphasis was directed on their seismic behavior and deformation components. Based on test data and a simplified analysis model of the global and local deformation, the contribution of the deformation components due to beam flexure, column flexure, joint shear, and slippage of longitudinal reinforcement in the joint to the global deformation of subassemblages at different displacement amplitudes of cyclic loading was investigated.

The global behavior of tube structures (including tube and tube(s)-in-tube constructions) is investigated for the behavioral characteristics of the structures and their performance in relation to the various structural parameters. The stiffness factor in terms of the axial stiffness of the columns and the bending stiffness of both columns and beams is chosen as a parameter to explain the global behavior of the structures. The shear-lag phenomenon is also discussed to explain the general behavior of the structures. Three types of tube structures, with various structural parameters, are analysed for the comparative study, and the results are compared to investigate the structural response and performance of such structures. As a result of the comparison it is obtained that the axial stiffness of the columns is the most important factor governing the response of the tube structures under lateral loading

This study highlights the accuracy of several single strut models to predict the global response of infilled reinforced concrete (R/C) frames. To this aim, six experimental tests are selected to calibrate the numerical modeling. The width of the diagonal strut is calculated using several macro models from the literature. The mechanical properties of the diagonal strut are determined by using two methods: (a) by subtracting the bare frame response from that of the infilled frame, and (b) by calculating the axial strength in the diagonal direction. A combination between the different width and the axial force models is carried out to study the effects of each parameter on global response. Non-linear pushover analyses are conducted using SAP2000. The results indicate the accuracy of the macro-modeling approach to predict the behavior of the infilled frames.

본 연구는 결함을 지닌 구조체의 거시적인 역학적 거동을 손상역학이론에 근거하여 해석할 수 있는 손상모델을 개발하고 이를 손상을 입은 구조체에 적용하여 손상된 구조체의 전체거동을 해석적으로 규명하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 수정된 2차손상텐서를 이용하였으며, 유효응력을 통해서 산정된 손상응력을 절점에 작용하는 추가의 하중 항으로 고려할 수 있고 균열면의 성질을 반영할 수 있는 유한요소해석 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 개발된 알고리즘은 실험치 및 횡등방성 이론에 의한 이론치와의 비교·검증을 통하여 그 신뢰성을 검토하였다. 선형탄성 가정 하에서 균열을 지닌 구조체에 개발된 알고리즘을 적용하여 해석한 결과, 균열의 방향과 균열군에 따른 손상된 구조체의 거동을 정량적으로 추정할 수 있었다. 개발된 모델을 균열이 존재하는 암반의 굴착문제와 파쇄대를 지니고 있는 지하구조체 문제에 적용해 본 결과, 손상으로 인해 야기되는 구조체의 전체 거동상의 차이를 규명할 수 있었다.

최근 금융시장의 변동성이 현저하게 증폭되면서 이에 대한 원인으로 금융시장의 군집 행동에 대한 이론적 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있지만 군집행동의 시계열적 특성을 파악할 수 있는 실증적 연구는 거의 없었다. 따라서 본 연구는 연속신념시스템(continuous beliefs system)의 이론적 확장을 통해 군집행동을 시계열적으로 측정할 수 있는 군집행동 파라미터를 도출하였으며 이를 추정하기 위한 계량모형을 제안하였다. 또한 이 모형의 효율적 추정을 위해 MCMC 추정법을 적용하였다. KOSPI와 DOW 지수월별자료를 이용한 실증분석 결과에 의하면 미국보다 우리나라 주식시장의 군집행동이, 그리고 글로벌 금융위기 전보다 글로벌 금융위기 이후에 군집행동이 강하게 나타났다. 또한 글로벌 금융위기로 인해 군집행동의 변동성(표준편차)이 증가하였으며 군집행동은 수익률 변동성과는 달리 지속적인 자기상관을 유지하지 않았다. 이런 결과는 군집행동이 금융시장을 불안하게 만드는 한 원인이 될 수 있음을 나타낸다.

The moment-resistant steel frames are frequently used as a load-bearing structure of buildings. Global response of a moment-resistant frame structure strongly depends on connections behavior, which can significantly influence the response and load-bearing capacity of a steel frame structure. The analysis of a steel frame with included joints behavior is the main focus of this work. In particular, we analyze the behavior of two connection types through experimental tests, and we propose numerical beam model capable of representing connection behavior. The six experimental tests, under monotonic and cyclic loading, are performed for two different types of structural connections: end plate connection with an extended plate and end plate connection. The proposed damage-plasticity model of Reissner beam is able to capture both hardening and softening response under monotonic and cyclic loading. This model has 18 constitutive parameters, whose identification requires an elaborate procedure, which we illustrate in this work. We also present appropriate loading program and arrangement of measuring equipment, which is crucial for successful identification of constitutive parameters. Finally, throughout several practical examples, we illustrate that the steel structure connections are very important for correct prediction of the global steel frame structure response.

In this paper, we investigate the boundedness character, the periodic character and the global behavior of positive solutions of the difference equation $$x_{n+1}=p_n+\frac{x_n}{x_{n-1}},\;n=0,1,{\cdots}$$ where $\{p_n\}$ is a two periodic sequence of nonnegative real numbers and the initial conditions $x_{-1}$, $x_0$ are arbitrary positive real numbers.

The prey-predator system with a single cross-diffusion pressure is known to possess a local solution with the maximal existence time $T\;{\leq}\;{\infty}$. By obtaining the bounds of $W\array_2^1$-norms of the local solution independent of T we establish the global existence of the solution. And the long-time behaviors of the global solution are analyzed when the diffusion rates $d_1\;and\;d_2$ are sufficiently large.

In this paper, some new generalized discrete Halanay inequalities are established. On the basis of these new established inequalities, we obtain the attracting set and the global asymptotic stability of the nonlinear discrete systems. Our results established here extend the main results in [R. P. Agarwal, Y. H. Kim, and S. K. Sen, New discrete Halanay inequalities: stability of difference equations, Commun. Appl. Anal. 12 (2008), no. 1, 83-90] and [S. Udpin and P. Niamsup, New discrete type inequalities and global stability of nonlinear difference equations, Appl. Math. Lett. 22 (2009), no. 6, 856-859].
