For small-size reinforce-concrete buildings, Midas Gen, OpenSees, and Perform-3D, which are structural analysis programs that are most popularly used at present, were applied for nonlinear static pushover analysis, and then difference between those programs was analyzed. Example buildings were limited to 2-story frames with irregular shaped walls. Analysis result showed that there were more differences than for frames only and frames with rectangular walls, but it was not so significant. Nevertheless, the capacity curve were different in some buildings, which is attributed to shape and location of walls, and feature of the analysis program. Especially, selection of automatic or manual input in Midas Gen, or nonlinear wall elements in Perform3D can affect the capacity curve and performance of the buildings. Therefore, the program users should understand the feature of the program well, and then conduct performance assessment. The result of this study is limited to low-story buildings so that it should be noted that it is possible to get different results for mid- to high-rise buildings.

지하구조물의 해석 방법은 크게 해석적 또는 유사정적 해석방법과 동적해석 방법의 두 종류로 나눌 수 있다. 유사정적 해석방법은 자유지반변형을 구조물에 정적인 하중으로 적용하여 구조물의 변위를 구하는 방법으로 선형탄성해석에 기초를 두고 있다. 그러나 치진 발생시 지반과 구조물 사이의 상호작용은 비선형 거동을 하여 이를 고려한 해석이 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 유사정적 해석방법에 반복계산과정에 의하여 지반의 비선형성을 고려할 수 있는 간편해석방법을 소개하고, 이를 수치해석을 통한 동해석을 수행하여 비교 검증하였다.

In part I of this papter Nonlinear Response Optimization using Equivalent Static Loads (NROESL) method/algorithm is developed to conduct optimization for nonlinear behavior structures. The method/algorithm is also verified to show its convergency and optimality. In this present paper, the NROESL algorithm is applied to several structural problems with geometric and/or material nonlinearity. Conventional optimization with sensitivity analysis using the finite difference method is also applied to the same examples. The results of the optimizations are compared. The proposed method is very efficient and derives good solutions.

본 논문은 한개의 터널다이오드로 구성된 시간에 무관한 비선형 회로를 논한다 부저항 소자로 구성된 비선형 회로의 해를 구하기 전에 비선형 소자의 정특성을 어떤 함수로 표시할 필요가 있다. 최소 자승법에 의해서 정특성을 표현하는 근사 다항식 커브를 구했다. 비선형 회로를 해석하기 위해서는 우선 그 회로에 관한 상태방정식이 설정되면 프레딕터·코렉터 방법에 의해서 해를 구할수 있다. 최종적으로, 비선형 회로의 안정도와 발진 조건을 논하기 위해서 limit cycle을 점철했다.

Evaluation of tunnel performance in seismic-prone areas demands efficient means of estimating performance at different hazard levels. The present study introduces an innovative push-over analysis approach which employs the standard earthquake spectrum to simulate the performance of a tunnel. The numerical simulation has taken into account the lining and surrounding rock to calculate the rock-tunnel interaction subjected to a static push-over displacement regime. Elastic perfectly plastic models for the lining and hardening strain rock medium were used to portray the development of plastic hinges, nonlinear deformation, and performance of the tunnel structure. Separately using a computational algorithm, the non-linear response spectrum was approximated from the average shear strain of the rock model. A NATM tunnel in Turkey was chosen for parametric study. A seismic performance curve and two performance thresholds are introduced that are based on the proposed nonlinear seismic static loading approach and the formation of plastic hinges. The tunnel model was also subjected to a harmonic excitation with a smooth response spectrum and different amplitudes in the fully-dynamic phase to assess the accuracy of the approach. The parametric study investigated the effects of the lining stiffness and capacity and soil stiffness on the seismic performance of the tunnel.

In this research, the nonlinear static, buckling and vibration analysis of viscoelastic micro-composite beam reinforced by various distributions of boron nitrid nanotube (BNNT) with initial geometrical imperfection by modified strain gradient theory (MSGT) using finite element method (FEM) are presented. The various distributions of BNNT are considered as UD, FG-V and FG-X and also, the extended rule of mixture is used to estimate the properties of micro-composite beam. The components of stress are dependent to mechanical, electrical and thermal terms and calculated using piezoelasticity theory. Then, the kinematic equations of micro-composite beam using the displacement fields are obtained. The governing equations of motion are derived using energy method and Hamilton's principle based on MSGT. Then, using FEM, these equations are solved. Finally the effects of different parameters such as initial geometrical imperfection, various distributions of nanotube, damping coefficient, piezoelectric constant, slenderness ratio, Winkler spring constant, Pasternak shear constant, various boundary conditions and three material length scale parameters on the behavior of nonlinear static, buckling and vibration of micro-composite beam are investigated. The results indicate that with an increase in the geometrical imperfection parameter, the stiffness of micro-composite beam increases and thus the non-dimensional nonlinear frequency of the micro structure reduces gradually.

The Standard ASCE 61-14 proposes the Substitute Structure Method (SSM) as a Nonlinear Static Procedure (NSP) to estimate nonlinear displacement demands at the center of mass of piers or wharves under seismic actions. To account for bidirectional earthquake excitation according to the Standard, results from independent pushover analyses in each orthogonal direction should be combined using either a 100/30 directional approach or a procedure referred to as the Dynamic Magnification Factor, DMF. The main purpose of this paper is to present an evaluation of these NSPs in relation to four wharf model structures on soil conditions ranging from soft to medium dense clay. Results from nonlinear static analyses were compared against benchmark values of relevant Engineering Design Parameters, EDPs. The latter are defined as the geometric mean demands that are obtained from nonlinear dynamic analyses using a set of 30 two-component ground motion records. It was found that SSM provides close estimates of the benchmark displacement demands at the center of mass of the wharf structures. Furthermore, for the most critical pile connection at a landside corner of the wharf the 100/30 and DMF approaches produced displacement, curvature, and force demands that were reasonably comparable to corresponding benchmark values.

본 논문은 전단벽과 슬래브, 인방보의 연결부재로 구성되는 독특한 구조형식으로 이루어진 국내 철근콘크리트(RC)조 공동주택의 지진거동을 정확하게 평가하기 위한 방법을 제시하기 위한 기초연구이다. 이를 위하여 인방보의 유무에 따른 RC조 전단벽식 부분구조 실험체 2개에 대하여 선형 스프링모델에 의한 비선형 정적해석을 실시하고 기존의 실험결과와 비교 분석하여 그 신뢰성을 검증 하였다. 인방보가 없는 실험체의 경우, 해석결과가 실험결과에 의한 비선형 거동을 정확히 모사하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 인방보가 있는 실험체의 경우, 해석결과의 경우, 정방향 가력시 실험결과 보다 작은 실험체의 변형으로 인방보에 의한 커플링 효과를 기대할 수 없게 되면서, 해석결과가 실험결과보다 재하시의 동일 변형에서의 내력과 잔류변형 등을 작게 평가하는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the validity of seismic performance evaluation using static analysis. For this purpose, Ordinary Moment Resisting Steel Frames(OMRSF) for different heights(3, 6 ,9, 12 story) and seismic zones(Zone 2A, 2B, 3, 4) were designed in compliance to AISC LRFD 1993 Seismic Provisions and NEHRP 1994 Guidelines. Nonlinear Static Procedure(NSP) and Nonlinear Dynamic Procedure(NDP) with a set of ground motion record were used to evaluate seismic demands in OMRSFs. Using the DRAIN-2DX program, this study compares peak displacement demands(Target Displacement) proposed by FEMA 273 with the peak roof displacement demands obtained from the inelastic time history analyses. Based on the results, the validity of procedure of seismic demand evaluation using Target Displacement is discussed.
