디지털 콘텐츠에서 HCI로 활용되는 가상 인간은 얼굴 표정과 신체자세와 같은 모달을 이용하여 다양한 감정을 표현하지만 비언어적 다중모달의 조합에 대한 연구는 많지 않다. 감정을 표현하는 가상 인간을 제작하려면 계산 엔진 모델은 얼굴 표정과 신체자세와 같은 비언어적 모달의 조합이 사용자에 의해 어떻게 인식되는지를 고려해야 하기 때문에 본 연구는 가상 인간의 감정 표현 디자인에 필요한 비언어적 다중모달의 영향을 분석하여 제시한다. 먼저 가상 인간에 대한 다중모달 별 감정 인식을 평가하여 다른 모달간의 상대적 영향성을 분석하였다. 그리고 일치하는 얼굴과 자세 모달을 통해 기본 감정 및 정서가와 활성화 인식에 대한 영향을 평가하며 감정이 불일치하는 다중모달을 통해 일상생활에서 빈번하게 드러나는 중첩된 감정의 인식 정도를 관측하였다. 실험 결과, 가상 인간의 얼굴과 신체자세의 표정이 일치하면 감정 인식이 용이하며, 얼굴 표정으로 감정 카테고리를 판별하지만 감정의 활성화 차원 판단에는 자세 모달리티가 선호됨을 확인하였다. 본 연구 결과는 감정을 드러내는 가상 인간의 행동 동기화 및 애니메이션 엔진 시스템 구현에 활용할 수 있다.

철도교량과 같이 주기적 가진에 의해 공진발생의 가능성이 높은 구조물에 있어서, 정확한 구조물의 동적거동 분석은 설계단계 및 공용중 안정적인 응답을 확보하기 위해 필수적이다. 특히, 콘크리트궤도는 강성기여와 질량기여를 통해 철도교량의 동특성을 변화시킬 수 있음에도 불구하고 일반적으로 철도교량 동적해석 시 질량으로만 고려되어진다. 본 연구에서는 실제 콘크리트궤도가 부설된 거더시험체를 제작하여 철도교량의 정 동적거동을 분석하였다. 또한, 궤도질량만을 고려한 경우와 궤도강성을 고려한 수치해석을 통해 중립축 위치와 고유진동수를 실험치와 비교 분석하였다. 이를 통해 콘크리트궤도 부설 철도교량의 경우 정량적인 산정이 가능한 콘크리트궤도의 강성과 질량을 고려한 해석값이 실험값과 근사한 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 콘크리트궤도 부설 철도교량에 대한 동적설계 및 동적안정성 분석 시 콘크리트궤도의 강성과 질량을 함께 고려할 것을 제안하였다.

The present contribution addresses the parallelization of advanced simulation methods for structural reliability analysis, which have recently been developed for large-scale structures with a high number of uncertain parameters. In particular, the Line Sampling method and the Subset Simulation method are considered. The proposed parallel algorithms exploit the parallelism associated with the possibility to simultaneously perform independent FE analyses. For the Line Sampling method a parallelization scheme is proposed both for the actual sampling process, and for the statistical gradient estimation method used to identify the so-called important direction of the Line Sampling scheme. Two parallelization strategies are investigated for the Subset Simulation method: the first one consists in the embarrassingly parallel advancement of distinct Markov chains; in this case the speedup is bounded by the number of chains advanced simultaneously. The second parallel Subset Simulation algorithm utilizes the concept of speculative computing. Speedup measurements in context with the FE model of a multistory building (24,000 DOFs) show the reduction of the wall-clock time to a very viable amount (<10 minutes for Line Sampling and ${\approx}$ 1 hour for Subset Simulation). The measurements, conducted on clusters of multi-core nodes, also indicate a strong sensitivity of the parallel performance to the load level of the nodes, in terms of the number of simultaneously used cores. This performance degradation is related to memory bottlenecks during the modal analysis required during each FE analysis.

The use of energy concepts in seismic analysis and design of structures requires the understanding of the input energy response of multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems subjected to strong ground motions. For design purposes and non-time consuming analysis, however, it would be beneficial to associate the input energy response of MDOF systems with those of single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems. In this paper, the theoretical formulation of energy input to MDOF systems is developed on the basis that only a particular portion of the total mass distributed among floor levels is effective in the nth-mode response. The input energy response histories of several reinforced concrete frames subjected to a set of eleven horizontal acceleration histories selected from actual recorded events and scaled in time domain are obtained. The contribution of the fundamental mode to the total input energy response of MDOF frames is demonstrated both graphically and numerically. The input energy of the fundamental mode is found to be a good indicator of the total energy input to two-dimensional regular MDOF structures. The numerical results computed by the proposed formulation are verified with relative input energy time histories directly computed from linear time history analysis. Finally, the elastic input energies are compared with those computed from time history analysis of nonlinear MDOF systems.

The flutter derivatives of bridge decks can be efficiently identified using the experimentally and/or numerically coupled forced vibration method. This paper addresses the issue of inherent requirement for adopting different frequencies of three modes in this method. The aerostatic force components and the inertia of force and moment are mathematically proved to exert no influence on identification results if the signal length (t) is integer (n=1,2,3...) times of the least common multiple (T) of three modal periods. It is one important contribution to flutter derivatives identification theory and engineering practice in this study. Therefore, it is unnecessary to worry about the determination accuracy of aerostatic force and inertia of force and moment. The influences of signal length, amplitude, and frequency ratio on flutter derivative are thoroughly investigated using a bridge example. If the signal length t is too short, the extraction results may be completely wrong, and particular attention should be paid to this issue. The signal length t=nT ($n{\geq}5$) is strongly recommended for improving parameter identification accuracy. The proposed viewpoints and conclusions are of great significance for better understanding the essences of flutter derivative identification through coupled forced vibration method.

A design method of a Multiple Tuned Mass Damper (MTMD) system is presented for wind induced vibration control of a cable-supported roof structure. Modal contribution analysis is carried out to determine the dominating modes of the structure for the MTMD design. Two MTMD systems are developed for two most dominating modes. Each MTMD system is composed of multiple TMDs with small masses spread at multiple locations with large responses in the corresponding mode. Frequencies of TMDs are distributed uniformly within a range around the dominating frequencies of the roof structure to enhance the robustness of the MTMD system against uncertainties of structural frequencies. Parameter optimizations are carried out by minimizing objective functions regarding the structural responses, TMD strokes, robustness and mass cost. Two optimization approaches are used: Single Objective Approach (SOA) using Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) with multi-start method and Multi-Objective Approach (MOA) using Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II). The computation efficiency of the MOA is found to be superior to the SOA with consistent optimization results. A Pareto optimal front is obtained regarding the control performance and the total weight of the TMDs, from which several specific design options are proposed. The final design may be selected based on the Pareto optimal front and other engineering factors.

In order to improve the performance of analysis, it is important to consider the nonlinearity in power system. The Carleman embedding technique (linearization procedure) provides an effective approach in reduction of nonlinear systems. In the approach, a group of differential equations in which the state variables are formed by the original state variables and the vector monomials one can build with products of positive integer powers of them, is constructed. In traditional Carleman linearization technique, the tensor matrix is truncated to form a square matrix, and then regular linear system theory is used to solve the truncated system directly. However, it is found that part of nonlinear information is neglected when truncating the Carleman model. This paper proposes a new approach to solve the problem, by combining the Poincar$\acute{e}$ transformation with the Carleman linearization. Case studies are presented to verify the proposed method. Modal analysis shows that, with traditional Carleman linearization, the calculated contribution factors are not symmetrical, while such problems are avoided in the improved approach.

Poorly designed reinforced concrete (RC) columns of actual moment-resisting frame (MRF) buildings can undergo Axial Compression Ratios (ACR) so high as their demand exceeds their capacity, even for serviceability gravity load combinations, this lack commonly leads to insufficient seismic strength. Nonetheless, many seismic design codes do not specify limits for ACR. The main contribution of this research is to investigate the need to limit the ACR in seismic design. For this purpose, three prototype 6 and 11-story RC MRF buildings are analyzed in this paper, these buildings have columns undergoing excessive ACR, according to the limits prescribed by standards. To better that situation, three types of alterations are performed: retrofitting the abovementioned overloaded columns by steel jacketing, increasing the concrete strength, and reducing the number of stories. Several finite element analyses are conducted using the well-known software SAP2000 and the results are used for further calculations. Code-type and pushover analyses are performed on the original and retrofitted buildings, the suitability of the other modified buildings is checked by code-type analyses only. The obtained results suggest that ACR is a rather reliable indicator of the final building strength, hence, apparently, limiting the ACR in the standards (for early stages of design) might avoid unnecessary verifications.
