철근콘크리트 구성요소에 대한 비탄성 거동 모델 개발은 철근콘크리트 구조물에 대한 성능기반 내진평가의 정밀도 향상에 있어 매우 중요한 요소로 본 연구에서는 지진과 같은 불규칙 반복 하중에 대한 철근콘크리트 구조물의 비선형 동적응답을 예측함에 있어 콘크리트 구성모델의 특성에 따른 민감도를 고찰하고자 하였다. 해석결과에 따르면 구속된 코어 콘크리트 모델과 일반 콘크리트의 구성모델은 동적응답에 큰 영향을 끼치지 않았으나 철근의 경우에 층간변위와 관련하여 구성모델에 따른 동적거동은 매우 민감하게 응답하는 것으로 나타났으며, 몇 개 층에서의 층간변위는 그 차이가 철근 구성모델 선택에 따라 2배 이상 차이 나는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 Non-ductile과 Ductile 골조 공히 비선형 동적해석을 수행하는데 있어 정밀한 철근 구성모델의 선택은 매우 중요한 것으로 사료된다.

The numerical investigations have been carried out on reinforced concrete slab against blast loading to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the finite element based numerical models using commercial package ABAQUS. The response of reinforced concrete slab have been studied against the influence of weight of TNT, standoff distance, boundary conditions, influence of air blast and surface blast. The results thus obtained from simulations were compared with the experiments available in literature. The inelastic behavior of concrete and steel reinforcement bar has been incorporated through concrete damage plasticity model and Johnson-cook models available in ABAQUS were presented. The predicted results through numerical simulations of the present study were found in close agreement with the experimental results. The damage mechanism and stress response of target were assessed based on the intensity of deformations, impulse velocity, von-Mises stresses and damage index in concrete. The results indicate that the standoff distance has great influence on the survivability of RC slab against blast loading. It is concluded that the velocity of impulse wave was found to be decreased from 17 to 11 m/s when the mass of TNT is reduced from 12 to 6 kg. It is observed that the maximum stress in the concrete was found to be in the range of 15 to $20N/mm^2$ and is almost constant for given charge weight. The slab with two short edge discontinuous end condition was found better and it may be utilised in designing important structures. Also it is observed that the deflection in slab by air blast was found decreased by 60% as compared to surface blast.

Structural fuses are made up from oriented steel plates to be used to resist seismic force with shear loading resistance capabilities. The damage and excessive inelastic deformations are concentrated in structural fuses to avoid any issues for the rest of the surrounding elements. Recently developed fuse plates are designed with engineered cutouts leaving flexural or shear links with controlled yielding features. A promising type of link is proposed to align better bending strength along the length of the link with the demand moment diagram is a butterfly-shaped link. Previously, the design methodologies are purely based on the flexural stresses, or shear stresses only, which overestimate the dampers capability for resisting against the applied loadings. This study is specifically focused on the optimized design methodologies for commonly used butterfly-shaped dampers. Numerous studies have shown that the stresses are not uniformly distributed along the length of the dampers; hence, the design methodology and the effective implementation of the steel need revisions and improvements. In this study, the effect of shear and flexural stresses on the behavior of butterfly-shaped links are computationally investigated. The mathematical models based on von-Mises yielding criteria are initially developed and the optimized design methodology is proposed based on the yielding criterion. The optimized design is refined and investigated with the aid of computational investigations in the next step. The proposed design methodology meets the needs of optimized design concepts for butterfly-shaped dampers considering the uniform stress distribution and efficient use of steel.

During the pipe forming process, a steel plate undergoes inelastic behavior multiple times under a load condition repeating tension and compression in the circumferential direction. It derives local reduction or increase of yield strength within the thickness of steel pipes by the plastic hardening and Bauschinger effect. In this study, a combined hardening model is proposed to effectively predict variations of yield strength in the circumferential direction of API-X65 and X70 steel pipes with relatively low t/D ratio during the forming process, which is expected to experience accumulated plastic strain of 2~3%, the typical Lüder band range in a low-carbon steel. Cyclic tensile tests of API-X65 and X70 steels were performed, and the parameters of the proposed model for the steels were calibrated using the test results. Bending-flattening tests to simulate repeated tension and compression during pipe forming were followed for API-X65 and X70 steels, and the results were compared with those by the proposed model and Zou et al. (2016), in order to verify the process of material model calibration based on tension-compression cyclic test, and the accuracy of the proposed model. Finally, parametric analysis for the yield strength of the steel plate in the circumferential direction of UOE pipe was conducted to investigate the effects of t/D and expansion ratios after O-forming on the yield strength. The results confirmed that the model by Zou et al. (2016) underestimated the yield strength of steel pipe with relatively low t/D ratio, and the parametric analysis showed that the t/D and expansion ratio have a significant impact on the strength of steel pipe.

In this study, the performance of shear deficient reinforced concrete (RC) beams with rectangular cross-sections, which were externally bonded reinforced (EBR) with high strength CFRP and GFRP strips composite along shear spans, has been experimentally and analytically investigated under vertical load. In the study, the minimum CFRP and GFRP strips width over spacing were considered. The shear beam with turned end to a bending beam was investigated by applying different composite strips. Therefore various arising in each of strength, ductility, rigidity, and energy dissipation capacity were obtained. A total of 12 small-scaled experimental programs have been performed. Beam dimensions have been taken as 100×150×1000 mm. Four beams have been tested as unstrengthened samples. This paper focuses on the effect of minimum CFRP and GFRP strip width on behaviours of RC beams shear-strengthened with full-wrapping, U-wrapping, and U-wrapping+longitudinal bonding strips. Strengthened beams showed significant increments for flexural ductility, energy dissipation, and inelastic performance. The full wrapping strips applied against shear failure have increased the load-carrying capacity of samples 53%-63% interval rate. Although full wrapping is the best strengthening choice, the U-wrapping and U-wrapping+longitudinal strips of both CFRP and GFRP bonding increased the shear capacity by 53%~75% compared to the S2 sample. In terms of ductility, the best result has been obtained by the type of strengthening where the S5 beam was completely GFRP wrapped. The experimental results were also compared with the analytically given by ACI440.2R-17, TBEC-2019 and FIB-2001. Especially in U-wrapped beams, the estimation of FIB was determined to be 81%. The estimates of the other codes are far from meeting the experimental results; therefore, essential improvements should be applied to the codes, especially regarding CFRP and GFRP deformation and approaches for longitudinal strip connections. According to the test results, it is suggested that GFRP, which is at least as effective but cheaper than CFRP, may be preferred for strengthening applications.

In this study, a new type of isolation bearing is proposed by combining S-shaped steel plate dampers (SSDs) with a spherical steel bearing, and the seismic control effect of a five-span standard high-speed railway bridge is investigated. The advantages of the proposed S-shaped steel damping friction bearing (SSDFB) are that it cannot only lengthen the structural periods, dissipate the seismic energy, but also prevent bridge unseating due to the restraint effectiveness of SSDs in the large relative displacements between the girders and piers. This study first presents a detailed description and working principle of the SSDFB. Then, mechanical modeling of the SSDFB was derived to fundamentally define its cyclic behavior and obtain key mechanical parameters. The numerical model of the SSDFB's critical component SSD was verified by comparing it with the experimental results. After that, parameter studies of the dimensions and number of SSDs, the friction coefficient, and the gap length of the SSDFBs were conducted. Finally, the longitudinal seismic responses of the bridge with SSDFBs were compared with the bridge with spherical bearing and spherical bearing with strengthened shear keys. The results showed that the SSDFB can not only significantly mitigate the shear force responses and residual displacement in bridge substructures but also can effectively reduce girder displacement and prevent bridge unseating, at a cost of inelastic deformation of the SSDs, which is easy to replace. In conclusion, the SSDFB is expected to be a cost-effective option with both multi-stage energy dissipation and restraint capacity, making it particularly suitable for seismic isolation application to high-speed railway bridges.

석유화학 플랜트에는 여러 설비 및 구조물이 서로 연계되어 운전성을 확보한다. 석유화학 플랜트의 생산활동은 국가 경제에 큰 영향을 미치므로, 구조적인 안전성뿐만 아니라 시설의 운전성을 유지하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 현행 내진설계 기준은 주로 붕괴방지를 목표로 시설의 설계요건을 제시하고 있으며, 시설의 운전성을 확보하는 요건을 제시하지 못하고 있다. 시설의 거동특성에 따라, 붕괴방지수준 이외의 내진성능수준에 의해서도 시설의 운전성이 확보될 수 있으므로, 다양한 내진성능수준을 적용할 수 있는 내진설계 방법의 제시가 필요하다. 구형(볼) 저장탱크는 여러 개의 기둥과 브레이스로 지지되어 브레이스와 기둥의 좌굴 및 항복 등으로 지진 시 복잡한 비선형거동을 보인다. 이 연구에서는 비선형거동 특성을 통계적으로 분석하여 신뢰도 기반의 성능기반 내진설계 방법을 새롭게 제시하였다.

성능에 기초한 설계법에서는 비선형 응답산정이 필수적이다. 이를 위한 해석법으로는 비선형 시간이력해석, 비선형 정적해석 혹은 비선형의 영향을 고려한 등가정적해석 등이 있다. 비선형 응답을 산정하기 위한 가장 정확한 해석방법은 비선형 시간이력해석법이지만, 많은 시간과 노력을 필요로 한다. 비선형 직접스펙트럼법은 pushover곡선으로부터 구조물의 선형 진동주기와 항복강도를 구한 다음, 반복계산 없이 비선형 응답을 직접 산정하는 약산법이다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 약산법들의 정확성과 신뢰성을 다양한 지진과 전단형 건물의 여러 가지 조건에 대해 검토하고자 한다. 본 연구의 결론은 다음과 같다. 1) 선형 능력스펙트럼법에 의한 약산응답들은 수렴하는 해를 구하지 못하거나 발산하는 경우가 발생하며 수렴하더라도 큰 오차가 발생하는 경우가 있으며, 지진별로 오차의 편차가 크다. 2) 비선형 능력스펙트럼법은 능력스펙트럼법보다 계산량이 크게 줄어들고, 해는 구해지나 요구곡선의 특성으로 정확한 해를 구하기 어려울 수 있으며, 전반적으로 큰 오차가 발생한다. 3) 비선형 직접스펙트럼법은 다른 약산법들에 비해 추가적이고 반복적인 계산과정 없이 pushover곡선과 비선형 응답스펙트럼으로부터 비교적 정확한 값을 직접 구할 수 있으므로 실용적인 방법으로 사료된다.

최근 세계 각 지역의 지진피해를 계기로 철근콘크리트 교량 구조물의 비탄성 거동 능력에 기초한 새로운 내진설계법의 필요성이 대두되었다. 본 연구는 철근콘크리트 교량에 대한 성능에 기초한 취약도 해석 결과를 제시하였다. 철근콘크리트 교량의 비선형 시간이력해석을 위해 몬테칼로시뮬레이션(Monte carlo simulation) 기법이 이용되었다. 취약도 곡선을 산출하기위해 로그정규분포(log-normal distribution)를 보이는 두 변수를 이용하였으며 이러한 취약도 변수는 철근콘크리트 교각의 손상을 각각의 손상 기준에 따라 최대우도법(maximum likelihood method)을 이용하여 산출하였다. 취약도 곡선을 산출하기위하여 5종의 손상 상태를 교각의 내진성능에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변위연성도와 곡률연성도로 제시하였다. 각각의 손상 상태는 여러 실험 결과를 토대로 연성도를 이용하여 정량적으로 제시하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 철근콘크리트 교각의 성능에 기초한 취약도 곡선을 제시하였다. 이러한 취약도 분석 기법은 다양한 교량 구조물의 지진에 의한 손상확률을 도출할 수 있으며 나아가 지진 재해도를 작성할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
