  • This paper presents experimental and numerical studies into the structural behavior of a high performance corbel type composite connection adopted in Raffles City of Hangzhou, China. Physical tests under both monotonic and quasi-static cyclic loads were conducted to investigate the load carrying capacities and deformation characteristics of this new type of composite connection. A variety of structural responses are examined in detail, including load-deformation characteristics, the development of sectional direct and shear strains, and the history of cumulative plastic deformation and energy. A three-dimensional finite element model built up with solid elements was also proposed for the verification against test results. The studies demonstrate the high rigidity, strength and rotation capacities of the corbel type composite connections, and give detailed structural understanding for engineering design and practice. Structural engineers are encouraged to adopt the proposed corbel type composite connections in mega high-rise buildings to achieve an economical and buildable and architectural friendly engineering solution.

  • In this paper, the behavior of plates partially restrained against rotation under stress gradient is investigated. As a first stage, an energy formulation is presented to model this boundary condition and a general expression is derived for the prediction of the elastic buckling of the plate under this general loading condition. The accuracy of the derived expression is compared numerically using the Galerkin method with other available data for the two limiting conditions of rotationally free and clamped boundaries. Results show that the prediction is within a 5% difference. The influence of rotational restraint and stress gradient upon the buckling load and the associated buckling mode is investigated. Numerical results show sensitivity of the buckling mode to the degree of rotational restraint and the variation of the buckling load with the stress gradient.

  • 본 논문의 주목적은 불연속 또는 연속계 구조물의 시스템 신뢰성해석(system reliability analysis)을 위한 보다 일반적인 방법을 소개하는데 있다. 본 논문에서는, 확대하중증분법(extended incremental load method)이라고 불리우는데, 지금까지의 신뢰성 해석법 중 종래의 하중증분법이 갖는 단점을 보완하고, 여러 형태의 하중이 작용하는 구조물에 대해, 부재의 파괴후 거동(post-ultimate behaviour)을 다른 방법보다 더 실제적으로 고려할 수 있는 장점을 갖도록 개발한 것이다. 본 방법의 또 하나의 장점은 구조설계시 사용하는 강도공식(strength formula) 을 시스템 신뢰성 해석에서 직접 이용할 수 있다는 점이다. 이 방법은 부유식 해양구조물 같은 연속계 구조물의 시스템 신뢰성 해석을 위해 개발되었는데, 이 논문에서는 실제 구조물은 다루지 않고, 방법의 정당성과 아울러 수정된 안전여유식의 적용가능성을 보여주는 것에 중점을 두었다. 본 논문의 부유식 해양구조물들에 적용한 결과는 후일 발표할 예정이다.

  • Road is typically constructed along ridge area of mountain because of topographical and economic reasons. Therefore, road may face lots of open cut slope which can easily cause rock falling. This study evaluates the structural safety of newly developed falling rock protection system which has a roof deck plate. The structural performance under self-weight, snow load and load from failing rock was investigated using a finite element numerical analysis method. From the analysis results, the H-beam space was limited not to exceed 2.2m. The deck plate was also safe under the examined loading condition. A hinge and connection in the system were investigated through detailed modelling and analysis. The results showed that the hinge was safe enough and that the connection should strengthened with appropriate stiffeners.

  • In recent years, induction motor is applied for several industrial actuatung parts instead of direct current motor because of the robust construction, nonexpensive and maintenance-free actuator etc. and having capability of speed control according to development of power electrounics and microprocessor techniques. In the paper, a microprocessor-based digital control approach for spped control of induction motor system is presented by considering a simple modelling equation as the system expression equation of induction motor and using the self tuning control and torque effdforward control method. As the model equation of the induction motor system, we use a second order differential equation which is well known in the modeling equation is induced form the control theory stand point such tath we can describe usually the motor system connected by inverter, generator and load etc. The effectiveness of the control system composed by the above mentioned design concept is illustrated by the expermental result in the presence of step reference change and generator load variation.

  • The paper is concerned with the behavior of tapered steel plate girders, primarily subjected to shear loading; experimental as well as finite element results obtained from the studies are presented in this paper. In the experimental study, 11 large-scale girders, one of uniform section and 10 tapered, were tested to failure and all girders were analysed by finite element method. The results are compared and the accuracy of the finite element modeling established. A parametric study was carried out with thickness of web, loading direction and taper angle as parameters. An analytical model, based on Cardiff model for girders of uniform cross-section, is also proposed in the paper.

  • The Conventional approach for estimating the locations of transmission line shunt faults has been to measure the apparent impedance to the fault from a line terminal and to convert the reactive component of the impedance to line length. But, these methods do not adequately address the problems associated with the fault location on distribution systems. This thesis presents a technique that estimates the location of shunt fault on a radial distribution system that has several single and multiphase laterals. Tapped loads and non-homogenity of the distribution system are take into account. The developed technique, which can handle shunt faults was tested to evaluate its suitability. Results from computer simulation of faults on a model of a 25KV distribution lines like real system are presented. The results approved that the proposed technique works well for estimating the locations of the distribution line shunt faults.

  • This paper deals with electromagnetic transient modelling of wind power system embedded in distribution networks. Wind power system consists of induction generator link reactor, distribution line, and controlled load unit. The introduction of embedded wind power system presents a new set of conditions to networks both with respect to power quantify needed to be transported and power quality such as sag swell, very short interruption, and flicker. This paper investigates the transient behavior of voltage, frequency, and load flow in wind driven induction generation system embedded in distribution networks.

  • The dynamic behavior of hydrostatic table is represented as the theoretical model, 1-dof, 2-dof rigid body spring-damper system, and finite element model. By the experimental and theoretical methods, the validity of these models and some other dynamic behaviors, such as the effects of unbalanced load and three dimensional motion, are investigated. To make easier to consider the dynamic behavior of hydrostatic table in design process, the stiffness and damping coefficients are calculated using the simple approximation method delived from the mass flow continuity condition, and compared with experimental results.
