Quantifying the amount of damage of structures under earthquakes is an interesting issue that researchers have attended on and have presented some damage indices. Whereas a lot of damage indices have been introduced based on nonlinear dynamic analysis, computational effort, the calculus complicacy and time-consuming of this analysis are the main drawbacks to widespread use of these indices. The objective of this study is to quantify the damage of Shear Wall Reinforced Concrete Frames (SWRCFs) based on pushover analysis as a procedure that can reflect the behavior of structures from elastic to collapse. For this purpose, firstly, several SWRCFs are designed and the capacity spectrum of each one is achieved via pushover analysis. After that, the static damage indices of the designed frames are obtained. Then, nonlinear dynamic analyses are performed on these frames and the Park and Ang damage index as the basis damage criterion is achieved. Afterward, some relations are presented to predict the dynamic damage of these frames via pushover analysis. Eventually, to confirm the validity of the proposed relations, the values of Park and Ang damage index of three new SWRCFs are acquired once utilizing nonlinear dynamic analysis and again applying the introduced relations. Outcomes prove the validity of some presented damage indices.

콘크리트의 미세공극 혹은 미세균열의 발생과 성장은 콘크리트의 점차적인 물성 저하를 야기한다. 이와같은 손상은 이방성을 가지며 소성과 함께 콘크리트의 비선형거동을 일으키는 주요원인이 된다. 본 논문은 콘크리트의 탄소성 변형 및 손상을 고려하여 콘크리트의 이방성 손상거동을 해석할 수 있는 콘크리트 연속체 손상모델의 개발에 관한 연구이다. 등가 탄성 에너지원리를 이용하여 이방 손상텐서로 표현된 유효탄성텐서를 구하고, 이를 포함하고 있는 열역학 법칙의 자유에너지함수와 소산포텐셜로부터 손상의 전개법칙을 유도한 후, 손상에너지해방률의 함수로 표현한 손상면을 적용하므로써 콘크리트의 이상성손상을 효율적으로 해석 할 수 있는 구성방정식을 유도하였다. 또한 이방성 손상모델에 콘크리트의 소성모델을 도입시켜 탄소성 변형 및 손상을 함께 고려할 수 있는 콘크리트의 연속체 손상모델을 개발하였다. 개발된 손상모델을 유한요소해석 프로그램에 적용하여 1축 및 2축의 여러 조합응력을 받는 콘크리트 모형을 유한요소해석하였으며, 실험결과 또는 타 모델과의 비교로부터 손상모델의 타당성을 검증하였다.

The beams components subjected to the loading such as axial, bending and cyclic thermal loads were studied in this research. The used constitutive equations are those of elasto-plasticity coupled to ductile and/or creep damage. The nonlinear kinematic hardening behavior was considered in elastoplasticity modeling. The unified damage law proposed for ductile failure and fatigue by the author of Sermage et al. (2000) and Kachanov's creep damage model applied to cyclic creep and low cycle fatigue of beams. Based on the results of the analysis, the shakedown limit loads were determined through the calculation of the residual strains developed in the beam analysis. The iterative technique determines the shakedown limit load in an iterative manner by performing a series of full coupled elastic-plastic and continuum damage cyclic loading modeling. The maximum load carrying capacity of the beam can withstand, were determined and imposed on the Bree's interaction diagram. Comparison between the shakedown diagrams generated by or without creep and/or ductile damage for the loading patterns was presented.

The present study intends to analyze damage in thin-walled steel cylinders undergoing constant internal pressure and thermal cycles through use of anisotropic continuum damage mechanics (CDM) model coupled with nonlinear kinematic hardening rule of Chaboche. Materials damage in each direction was defined based on plastic strain and its direction. Stress and strain distribution over wall-thickness was described based on the CDM model and the return mapping algorithm was employed based on the consistency condition. Plastic zone expansion across the wall thickness of cylinders was noticeably affected with change in internal pressure and temperature gradients. Expansion of plastic zone over wall-thickness at inner and outer surfaces and their boundaries demarking elastic and plastic regions was attributed to the magnitude of damage induced over thermomechanical cycles on the thin-walled samples tested at various pressure stresses.

This paper presents a comparative study of the damage potentials for the 2016 Gyeongju and 2017 Pohang earthquakes in Korea. Plausible technical explanations are provided for the more severe damage observed in the 2017 Pohang earthquake in spite of its relatively weaker magnitude and intensity measures based on the response analysis of elastic and inelastic single-degree-of-freedom systems for the recorded ground motions. In addition, a detailed case study was conducted for a fatally damaged piloti building with an eccentric shear wall core based on nonlinear dynamic analysis using the input ground motions modified for the building site.

Estimating fatigue damage is a very important issue in the design of ships. The springing and whipping response, which is the hydro-elastic response of the ship, can increase the fatigue damage of the ship. So, these phenomena should be considered in the design stage. However, the current studies on the the application of springing and whipping responses at the design stage are not sufficient. So, in this study, a prediction method was developed using fluid-structural interaction analysis to assess of the fatigue damage induced by springing and whipping. The stress transfer function (Stress RAO) was obtained by using the 3D FE model in the frequency domain, and the fatigue damage, including linear springing, was estimated by using the wide band damage model. We also used the 1D beam model to develop a method to estimate the fatigue damage, including nonlinear springing and whipping by the vertical bending moment in the short-term sea state. This method can be applied to structural members where fatigue strength is weak to vertical bending moments, such as longitudinal stiffeners. The methodology we developed was applied to 325K VLOC, and we analyzed the effect of the springing and whipping phenomena on the existing design.

Estimation of damage probability of buildings under a future earthquake is an essential issue to ensure the seismic reliability. Fragility curves are useful tools for showing the probability of structural damage due to earthquakes as a function of ground motion indices. The purpose of this study is to compare the damage probability of R/C buildings with low and high level of strength and ductility through fragility analysis. Two different types of sample buildings have been considered which represent the building types mentioned above. The first one was designed according to TEC-2007 and the latter was designed according to TEC-1975. The pushover curves of sample buildings were obtained via pushover analyses. Using 60 ground motion records, nonlinear time-history analyses of equivalent single degree of freedom systems were performed using bilinear hysteretic model and peak-oriented hysteretic model with stiffness - strength deterioration for each scaled elastic spectral displacement. The damage measure is maximum inter-story drift ratio and each performance level considered in this study has an assumed limit value of damage measure. Discrete damage probabilities were calculated using statistical methods for each considered performance level and elastic spectral displacement. Consequently, continuous fragility curves have been constructed based on the lognormal distribution assumption. Furthermore, the effect of hysteresis model parameters on the damage probability is investigated.

A numerical model for masonry is proposed by following an internal variable approach originally developed in the field of elastic-plastic analysis. The general features of the theoretical framework are discussed by focussing on finite element models applicable to incremental elastic-plastic problems. An extremum property is derived and its implications in terms of convergence for convenient algorithms are briefly discussed, by including the case of softening materials and damage effects. Next, a numerical model is presented, which is suitable for masonry, can be developed according to the same internal variable formulation and enjoys similar properties. Some numerical results are presented and compared with the response of a masonry shear wall subjected to pseudodynamic tests.

본 연구에서는 암석의 최대강도 이전의 각 손상단계에서 탄성정수의 변화로 나타나는 손상특성과 최대강도 후거동을 고려할 수 있는 손상모델을 실험적으로 개발하였다. 일축 및 삼축압축실험 결과를 토대로 암석의 손상기준을 결정하였고, 각 손상단계에서 탄성정수의 변화를 구속압의 함수로 최적화시켰다. 또한 최대강도 후 Hoek-Brown상수 mr과 sr을 이용하여 최대강도 후 거동을 모사하였다. 개발된 실험 손상모델을FLAC$^{2D}$의 FISH 함수로 구현하여 수치해석을 실시하였다. Hoek-Brown 최대강도 후 상수들이 해석결과에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 일축압축강도는 mr과 sr 모두에 의해 영향을 받으나 5,에 의해 더 크게 좌우되는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 m,은 최대강도 후의 응력-변형률 곡선의 기울기에 큰 영향을 끼치는 것으로 나타났다. 분석으로부터 얻어진 최적 손상모델을 수치해석에 적용한 결과 실험실 시험으로부터 얻어진 최대 강도와 암석의 손상에 따른 강성 변화를 잘 예측하였다.다.
