항만구조물의 경우 정적인 하중 뿐만 아니라 파압과 같이 반복적인 하중을 받는 구조물임에 따라 반복적인 하중을 받는 구조물의 특성을 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 반복 수평하중에 의한 말뚝으로 보강된 블록식 방파제의 거동특성을 실내모형실험을 통해 구하였다. 말뚝의 근입 깊이가 깊어질수록 수평저항력이 증가하는 경향이 나타났으며, 하중이 반복될수록 수평저항력의 기울기는 점차 완만하게 나타났다. 휨모멘트는 후열말뚝이 전열말뚝보다 크게 나타났다. 지반내에서의 말뚝의 휨모멘트는 Broms(1964)의 사질토지반에서 말뚝두부 자유일 때와 유사하게 나타났다.

A review of previous studies shows that although there is a considerable difference between buckling loads of structures under follower and non-follower lateral loads, only the buckling load of FGM elliptical cylindrical shell under non-follower lateral load was investigated in the literature. This study is the first to obtain the buckling load of elliptical FGM cylindrical shells under follower lateral load and also make a comparison between buckling loads of elliptical FGM cylindrical shells under follower and non-follower lateral loads. Moreover, this research is the first one to derive the load potential function of elliptical cylindrical shell. In this regard, the FGM cylindrical elliptical shell was modeled using the semi-analytical finite strip method and based on the First Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT). The shell is discretized by strip elements aligned in the longitudinal direction. The Lagrangian and harmonic shape functions were considered in the circumference and longitudinal directions, respectively. The buckling pressure of the shell under follower and non-follower lateral loads was obtained from eigenvalue problem. The results obtained from the model were compared with those presented in the literature to evaluate the validity of the model. A comparison index was defined to compare the buckling loads of the shell under follower and non-follower lateral load. A parametric study was carried out to investigate the effects of material properties and shell geometry characteristics on the comparison index. For the elliptical cylindrical shells with length-to-radius ratio greater than 16 and major-to-minor axis ratio greater than 0.6, the comparison index reaches to more than 20 percent which is significant. Moreover, the maximum difference is about 30 percent in some cases. The results obtained from the parametric study indicate that the buckling load of long elliptical cylindrical shell under non-follower load is not reliable.

The critical buckling loads of unsymmetrically laminated rectangular plates with a given material system and subjected to combined lateral and inplane loads are maximized with respect to fiber orientations by using a sequential linear programming method together with a simple move-limit strategy. Significant influence of plate aspect ratios, central circular cutouts, lateral loads and end conditions on the optimal fiber orientations and the associated optimal buckling loads of unsymmetrically laminated plates has been shown through this investigation.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the behavior of the concrete pile under the horizontal loads by the model tests in laboratory. The rock ground was modeled by the concrete of about 30MPa, and a model pile was made of some mortar with the capacity of 24MPa. The diameter(D) and length(L) of a model pile was each 1200mm and 1800mm. The embedment depth into the concrete block was varied with 1.0D, 1.5D, and 2.0D in the model tests. The results of model tests showed that the lateral resistance of a pile with the embedment depth of 2.0D was more large than other cases, and the lateral displacement of yielding was similar.

This paper is experimental study to define the structural behaviors of reinforced flat plate under combined gravity and lateral loads. Specific objectives of this study reported herein are : (1) To study the behavior of a typical slab-column subassemblage under lateral loading. (2) To study the effects of vertical loads on slab-column lateral load behavior. (3) To investigate the post-failure behavior of slab-column connetios. To achieve these objectives, this study includes four tests of slab-column subassemblages that were made for 1/2 scale. Finally, Test results of this study show that the level of gravity load on the flat plate is one of the most important factors determining the lateral behavior of flat plate connections.

Piles passing through sloping liquefiable deposits are prone to lateral loading if these deposits liquefy and flow during earthquakes. These lateral loads caused by the relative soil-pile movement will induce bending in the piles and may result in failure of the piles or excessive pile-head displacement. Whilst the weak nature of the flowing liquefied soil would suggest that only small loads would be exerted on the piles, it is known from case histories that piles do fail owing to the influence of laterally spreading soils. It will be shown, based on dynamic centrifuge test data, that dilatant behaviour of soil close to the pile is the major cause of these considerable transient lateral loads which are transferred to the pile. This paper reports the results of geotechnical centrifuge tests in which models of gently sloping liquefiable sand with pile foundations passing through them were subjected to earthquake excitation. The soil close to the pile was instrumented with pore-pressure transducers and contact stress cells in order to monitor the interaction between soil and pile and to track the soil stress state both upslope and downslope of the pile. The presence of instrumentation measuring pore-pressure and lateral stress close to the pile in the research described in this paper gives the opportunity to better study the soil stress state close to the pile and to compare the loads measured as being applied to the piles by the laterally spreading soils with those suggested by the JRA design code. This test data shows that lateral stresses much greater than one might expect from calculations based on the residual strength of liquefied soil may be applied to piles in flowing liquefied slopes owing to the dilative behaviour of the liquefied soil. It is shown at least for the particular geometry studied that the current JRA design code can be un-conservative by a factor of three for these dilation-affected transient lateral loads.

This experimental investigation was conducted to examine the behavior and response of high-strength material (HSM) reinforced concrete (RC) columns under combined high-axial and cyclic-increasing lateral loads. All the columns use high-strength concrete ($f_c{^{\prime}}$=100MPa) and high-yield strength steel ($f_y$=685MPa and $f_y$=785MPa) for both longitudinal and transverse reinforcements. A total of four full-scale HSM columns with amount of transverse reinforcement equal to 100% more than that required by earthquake resistant design provisions of ACI-318 were tested. The key differences among those four columns are the spacing and configuration of transverse reinforcements. Two different constant axial loads, i.e. 60% and 30% of column axial load capacity, were combined with cyclically-increasing lateral loads to impose reversed curvatures in the columns. Test results show that columns under 30% of axial load capacity behaved much more ductile and had higher lateral deformational capacity compared to columns under the 60% of axial load capacity. The columns using closer transverse reinforcement spacing have slightly higher ductility than columns with larger spacing.

Environmental thermal loads such as vertical and lateral temperature gradients are significant factors that must be taken into account when designing the bridge. Different models have been developed and used by countries for simulating thermal gradients in bridge codes. In most of the codes only vertical temperature gradients are considered, such as Iranian Standard Loads for Bridge code (ISLB), which only considers the vertical gradient for bridge design proposes. On the other hand, the vertical gradient profile specified in ISLB, has many lacks due to the diversity of climate in Iran, and only one vertical gradient profile is defined for whole Iran. This paper aims to get the both vertical and lateral gradient loads for the concrete box girder using experimental analysis in the capital of Iran, Tehran. To fulfill this aim, thermocouples are installed in experimental concrete segment and temperatures in different location of the segment are recorded. A three dimensional finite element model of concrete box-girder bridge is constructed to study the effects of thermal loads. Results of investigation proved that the effects of thermal loads are not negligible, and must be considered in design processes. Moreover, a solution for reducing the negative effects of thermal gradients in bridges is proposed. Results of the simulation show that using one layer polyurethane insulation can significantly reduce the thermal gradients and thermal stresses.

Beam-columns are structural members subjected to a combination of axial and bending forces. Lateral-torsional buckling is one of the main failure modes. Beam-columns that are bent about its strong axis may buckle out of the plane by deflecting laterally and twisting as the values of the applied loads reach a limiting state. Lateral-torsional buckling failure occurs suddenly in beam-column elements with a much greater in-plane bending stiffness than torsional or lateral bending stiffness. This study intends to establish a unique convenient closed-form equation that it can be used for calculating critical elastic lateral-torsional buckling load of beam-column in the presence of a known axial load. The presented equation includes first order bending distribution, the position of the loads acting transversely on the beam-column and mono-symmetry property of the section. Effects of axial loads, slenderness and load positions on lateral torsional buckling behavior of beam-columns are investigated. The proposed solutions are compared to finite element simulations where thin-walled shell elements including warping are used. Good agreement between the analytical and the numerical solutions is demonstrated. It is found out that the lateral-torsional buckling load of beam-columns with mono-symmetric sections can be determined by the presented equation and can be safely used in design procedures.

본 연구는 수평하중을 받는 플랫 플레이트 슬래브 해석을 위한 수정된 등가골조 모델을 제안한 것이다. ACI 318 (2000)은 중력하중 뿐만 아니라 수평하중을 받는 2 방향 슬래브 해석을 위해 등가골조 모델을 허용하고 있다. ACI 318 (2000)에서 채택하고 있는 등가골조 모델은 중력하중을 고려하여 발전되었기 때문에, 수평하중하의 플랫 플레이트 슬래브의 거동을 정확하게 예측하지 못할지 모른다. 따라서 본 연구는 수평하중 하의 플랫 플레이트 슬래브에 대한 더 정확한 해답을 줄 수 있는 수정된 등가골조 모델을 발전시켰다. 수평하중이 지배적인 경우, 이 모델은 기존 등가골조 모델보다 플랫 플레이트 슬래브 시스템의 구성요소 슬래브, 기둥, 비틀림 부재에 대한 더 정확한 힘의 전달 메커니즘을 반영한다. 이 모델의 타당성은 유한요소해석 결과와 제안한 모델의 해석 결과를 비교하여 검증하였으며, 기존 등가골조 모델의 해석 결과가 비교에 포함되었다. 양방향으로 3스팬을 갖는 2층 건물을 비교 대상으로 삼았으며, 수정된 등가골조 모델의 수평변위 및 슬래브모멘트 결과는 유한요소해석 결과와 가장 근사한 결과를 나타냈다.
