The finite element menthod for the investigation of the static and dynamic stability of the plane framed structures subjected to non-conservative forces is presented. By using the Hermitian polynomial as the shape function, the geometric stiffness matrix, the load correction stiffness matrix for non-conservative forces, and the matrix equation of internal and external damping are derived. Then, a matrix equation of the motion for the non-conservative system is formulated and the critical divergence and flutter loads are determined from this equation.

A geometrically nonlinear analysis procedure for plane frame structures in order to study the static and dynamic post-buckling behavior of these structures subjected to circulatory forces is presented. The elastic and geometric stiffness matrices, the mass matrix and load correction stiffness matrix are derived from the extended virtual work principle, where the tangent stiffness matrix becomes non-symmetric due to the effects of non-conservative circulatory forces. The dynamic analysis of plane frame structures subjected to circulatory forces in pre- and post-buckling ranges is carried out by integrating the equations of motion directly by the numerically stable Newmark method. Numerical results are presented in order to demonstrate the vality and accuracy of the proposed procedure.

전단변형 효과를 무시하는 경우에 비대칭 선형 변단면을 갖는 박벽 공간 보의 안정성 해석을 위한 일반이론을 유도한다. 비대칭 선형 변단면의 임의점을 통과하는 부재축과 단면의 주축의 방향과 무관하고 부재축과 직각을 이루는 두 개의 좌표축을 도입하여 직각좌표계를 정의한다. 정의된 좌표축을 기준으로 유한한 회전각의 2차항을 고려하는 변위장을 도입하여 연속체에 대한 가상일의 원리로부터 탄성변형에너지, 그리고 초기응력에 의한 포텐셜에너지를 유도한다. 이를 이용하여 비대칭 선형 변단면을 갖는 박벽 공간 보의 안정성해석을 위한 평형방정식을 제시한다. 3차 Hermitian 다항식을 변위파라미터의 형상함수로 사용하여 박벽 공간 보의 탄성강도 및 기하강도행렬을 상정할 뿐만 아니라, 단면의 좌표축에 상관없이 임의의 위치에 작용하는 하중에 대한 하중보정강도행렬(load-correction stiffness matrix)을 제시한다. 본 이론 및 방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 수치해석을 수행하고 문헌의 결과 및 쉘요소를 사용한 해석결과와 비교하여 본 이론의 정당성을 입증한다.

The purpose of this paper is to find minimum surface shape of pneumatic structure using the finite element method. The pneumatic membrane structure is a kind of large deformation problem and very flexible composite material, which mean geomatric nonlinearity. It is not to resist for compression and resultant moment. As the displacement due to internal pressure is getting bigger, it should be considered the direction of forces. It becomes non-linear problem with the non-conservative force. The follower-force depends on the deformation and the direction of force is normal to each element. The solution process is obtained the new stiffness matrix (load correction matrix) depending on deformation through each iterated step. However, the stiffness matrix have not the symmetry and influence on the time of covergence. So in this paper Newton-Rhapson method for solving non-linear problem and for using symmetic matrix, the load direction is changed in each iterated step using the transformation matrix.

This paper presents a new nonlinear analysis algorithm, that is, adaptive Newton-Raphson iteration method, The presented algorithm is based on the existing Newton-Raphson method, and the concept of it can be summarized as calculating the equivalent load for stiffness(ELS) and adapting this to the initial global stiffness matrix which has already been calculated and saved in initial analysis and finally calculating the correction displacements for the nonlinear analysis, The key characteristics of the proposed algorithm is that it calculates the inverse matrix of the global stiffness matrix only once irresponsive of the number of load steps. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm depends on the ratio of the active Dofs - the Dofs which are directly connected to the members of which the element stiffness are changed - to the total Dofs, and based on this ratio by using the proposed algorithm as a complementary method to the existing algorithm the efficiency of the nonlinear analysis can be improved dramatically.

Numerical procedures for the geometrically nonlinear finite element analysis of prestressed concrete shell structures under tendon-induced nonconservative loads have been presented. The equivalent load approach is employed to realize the effect of prestressing tendon. In this study, the tendon-induced nonconservative loads are rigorously formulated into the load correction stiffness matrix(LCSM) taking the characteristics of Present shell element into account. Also, improved nonlinear formulations of a shell element are used by including second order rotations in the displacement field. Numerical example shows that beneficial effect on the convergence behavior can be obtained by the realistic evaluation of tangent stiffness matrix according to the present approaches.

The general formulation for free vibration and stability analysis of unsymmetric thin-wared space frames is presented in case where the shear deformation effects are neglected. The kinetic and total potential energies are derived by applying the extended virtual work principle, introducing displacement parameters defined at the arbitrarily chosen axis and including warping deformation and second order terms of finite semitangential rotations. In formulating the finite element procedure, cubic Hermitian polynomials are utilized as shape functions of the two node space frame element. Mass, elastic stiffness, and geometric stiffness matrices for the unsymmetric thin-walled section are evaluated, and load-correction stiffness matrices for off-axis distributed loadings are considered. In order to illustrate the accuracy and practical usefulness of this formulation, finite element solutions for the free vibration and stability problems of thin-walled beam-columns and space frames are presented and compared with available solutions.
