In this study, alternative seismic force-resisting systems for plant structure supporting equipment were designed, and the seismic performance thereof was compared using nonlinear dynamic analysis. One alternative seismic force-resisting system was designed per the requirement for ordinary moment-resisting and concentrically braced frames but with a reduced base shear. The other seismic force-resisting system was designed by accommodating seismic details of intermediate and unique moment-resisting frames and special concentrically braced frames. Different plastic hinge models were applied to ordinary and ductile systems based on the validation using existing test results. The control model obtained by code-based flexible design and/or reduction of base shear did not satisfy the seismic performance objectives, but the alternative structural system did by strengthened panel zones and a reduced effective buckling length. The seismic force to equipment calculated from the nonlinear dynamic analysis was significantly lower than the equivalent static force of KDS 41 17 00. The comparison of design alternatives showed that the seismic performance required for a plant structure could be secured economically by using performance-based design and alternative seismic-force resisting systems adopting minimally modified seismic details.

The vibration of fuel rods in axial flow is a universally recognized issue within both engineering and academic communities due to its significant importance in ensuring structural safety. This paper aims to thoroughly investigate the stability and nonlinear vibration of a fuel rod subjected to axial flow in a newly designed high temperature gas cooled reactor. Considering the possible presence of thermal expansion and large deformation in practical scenarios, the thermal effect and geometric nonlinearity are modeled using the von Karman equation. By applying Hamilton's principle, we derive the comprehensive governing equation for this fluid-structure interaction system, which incorporates the quadratic nonlinear stiffness. To establish a connection between the fluid and structure aspects, we utilize the Galerkin method to solve the perturbation potential function, while employing mode expansion techniques associated with the structural analysis. Following convergence and validation analyses, we examine the stability of the structure under various conditions in detail, and also investigate the bifurcation behavior concerning the buckling amplitude and flow velocity. The findings from this research enhance the understanding of the underlying physics governing fuel rod behavior in axial flow under severe yet practical conditions, while providing valuable guidance for reactor design.

본 연구는 주식 수익률의 생성과정에 비선형적 특성이 존재하는지를 검정하기 위해서 1980년 1월부터 2002년 5월까지 종합주가지수 일별 수익률과 주별 수익률을 이용하여 실증분석을 실시하였다. 실증분석의 내용은 크게 비선형 종속성에 대한 검정과 비선형 확률적 특성검정 그리고 비선형 결정론적인 카오스검정으로 구분할 수 있다. 비선형적 특성에 대한 분석의 결과는 주식 수익률은 leptokurtic한 비정규분포를 따르며, 수익률의 생성과정이 IID하지 않고 비선형 종속성이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 ARCH류의 비선형 확률모형으로는 주식 수익률의 비선형적 구조를 완전히 설명하지는 못하는 것으로 판단된다. 이는 주식 수익률의 생성과정을 설명하기 위해서 ARCH류의 모형과는 다른 형태의 비선형모형의 도입에 대해 고려할 필요가 있음을 시사하는 것이다. 종합주가지수 수익률에 대한 카오스검정의 결과를 정리하면, 우선 장기기억을 가지는 지속성이 강한 시계열로 편의된 랜덤워크를 따르며, 프랙탈분포하는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 프랙탈 차원의 근사값인 상관차원(D)이 3과 4사이에 안정적으로 수렴하며, 최대 리아푸노프지수($L_1$)가 양(+)의 값을 가지므로 카오스적 끌개와 초기조건에 민감한 의존성이 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과들은 카오스시스템의 특성과 부합하는 것으로 주식 수익률의 생성과정이 비선형 결정론적인 카오스과정을 따르는 것으로 판단할 수 있다.

A digital wave tank (DWT) simulation technique has been developed by authors to investigate the interactions of fully nonlinear waves with 3D marine structures. A finite-difference/volume method and a modified marker-and-cell (MAC) algorithm have been used, which are based on the Navier-Stokes (NS) and continuity equations. The fully nonlinear kinematic free-surface condition is implemented by the marker-density function (MDF) technique or the Level-Set (LS) technique developed for one or two fluid layers. In this paper, some applications for various engineering problems with free-surface are introduced and discussed. It includes numerical simulation of marine environments by simulation equipments, fully nonlinear wave motions around offshore structures, nonlinear ship waves, ship motions in waves and marine flow simulation with free-surface. From the presented simulations, it seems that the developed DWT simulation technique can handle various engineering problems with free-surface and reliably predict hydrodynamic features due to the fully-nonlinear wave motions interacting with such marine structures.

This paper considers the nonlinear direct spectrum method to estimate seismic performance of mixed building structures without iterative computations, given dynamic property $T_1$ from stiffness skeleton curve and nonlinear pseudo acceleration $A_{1y}$ and/or ductility ratio $\mu$ from response spectrum. Nonlinear response history analysis has been performed and analysed with various earthquakes for evaluation of correctness and confidence of nonlinear direct spectrum method.

The neural network approach has been shown to be a general scheme for nonlinear dynamical system identification. Unfortunately the error surface of a Multilayer Neural Networks(MNN) that widely used is often highly complex. This is a disadvantage and potential traps may exist in the identification procedure. The objective of this paper is to identify a nonlinear dynamical systems based on Self-Organized Distributed Networks (SODN). The learning with the SODN is fast and precise. Such properties are caused from the local learning mechanism. Each local network learns only data in a subregion. This paper also discusses neural network as identifier of nonlinear dynamical systems. The structure of nonlinear system identification employs series-parallel model. The identification procedure is based on a discrete-time formulation. Through extensive simulation, SODN is shown to be effective for identification of nonlinear dynamical systems.

In this paper, we propose a design method and control law for plannar type two-link flexible manipulator. In designing flexible links, we use Rayleigh's principle. To control flexible manipulator, input distribution controller is used, which is primarily on the basis of nonlinear variable structure control(VSC). The simulation results are also shown.

In order to construct a nonlinear observer, change of coordinate system is necessary. However, as in the case of feedback linearizable system it is not easy to obtain a coordinate transformation map. ln this paper, a canonical structure is proposed for observable systems with an objective of finding a vector field which is necessary for the generation of a new coordinate system.

WE consider the stabilization of a class of multivariable nonlinear system using variable structure output feedback control. A high-gain observer is used to estimate state variable while rejecting the effect of the disturbances. We design a globally bounded output feedback variable structure controller that semi-globally stabilize the closed-loop system, while state variables do not exhibit a peaking.

Results from nonlinear time-history analyses of wall-frame structural models indicate that the condition of vulnerable foundations -for which uplifting and reaching the bearing capacity of the supporting soil can occur before yielding at the base of the shear walls- may not be necessarily detrimental to the drift response of buildings under strong ground motions. Analyses also show that a soil-foundation system can inherently have deformation capacity well in excess of the demand and thus act as a source of energy dissipation that protects the structural integrity of the shear walls.
