The maximum ductility and cumulative ductility of connection joints of Buckling-Restrained Braced Frames (BRBF) are critical to the structural overall performance, which should be matched with the BRB ductility. The two-story and one-span BRBF with a one-third scale was tested under cyclic quasi-static loading, and the top-flange beam splice (TFBS) rotational connections were proposed and adopted in BRBF. The deformation capacity of TFBS connections was observed during the test, and the relationship between structural global ductility and local connection ductility was studied. The rotational capacity of the beam-column connections and the stability performance of the BRBs are highly relevant to the structural overall performance. The hysteretic curves of BRBF are stable and full under large displacement demand imposed up to 2% story drift, and energy is dissipated as the large plastic deformation developed in the structural components. The BRBs acted as fuses and yielded first, and the cumulative plastic ductility (CPD) of BRBs is 972.6 of the second floor and 439.7 of the first floor, indicating the excellent energy dissipation capacity of BRBs. Structural members with good local ductility ensure the large global ductility of BRBF. The ductile capacity and hysteretic behavior of BRBF with TFBS connections were compared with those of BRBF with Reduced Beam Section (RBS) connections in terms of the experimental results.

To investigate the effect of material and precess variables on stamping formability of sheet materials, simulations for the cup drawing and the Yoshida buckling test were carried out using ABAQUS, commercial nonlinear finite element analysis code. The various factor effects on stamping formability of sheet materials were analyzed by the designed process according to Taguch's orthogonal array experiment. Cup drawing simulation showed that local neckling was very sensitive to plastic anisotropy parameter of sheet material and friction coefficient between sheet and tool interface. Simulations for the Yoshida buckling test have clarified that buckling behaviour of sheet material was mostly susceptible to yield stress and sheet thickness mostly. However, plastic anisotropy parameter and strain hardening coefficient affect moderately buckling behaviour of steel sheets after the buckling initiation.

A Semi-Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (SAUV), capable of simple work on the seabed, is under development in KRISO-KORDI. This SAUV pressure vessel is composed of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), and is also manufactured to carry electronic equipment. The objective of this paper is to describe the safety check for the pressure vessel. This is achieved fly conducting structural analysis and testing in a pressure tank. Strain and stress test results, under unit load, are obtained fly using ANSYS in linear structural analysis. Local buckling analysis are performed with NASTRAN at the middle oj the cylindrical hull. The first test, using linear structural analysis, is unsuccessful, as buckling occurred. During the second test, linear structural analysis, combined with local buckling analysis, is conducted. There is no buckling up to 250 m when both ANSYS and NASTRAN are used.

Braces are one of the retrofitting systems of structure under earthquake loading. Buckling restrained braces (BRBs) are one of the very efficient braces for lateral loads. One of the key needs for a desirable and acceptable behavior of buckling-restraining brace members under intensive loading is that it prevents total buckling until the bracing member tolerates enough plastic deformation and ductility. This paper presents the results of a set of analysis by finite element method on buckling restrained braces in which the filler materials within the restraining member have been removed. These braces contain core as the conventional BRBs, but they have a different buckling restrained system. The purpose of this analysis is conducting a parametric study on various empty spaces between core and restraining member, the effect of friction between core and restraining member and applying initial deformation to brace system to investigate the global buckling behavior of these braces. The results of analysis indicate that the flexural stiffness of restraining member, regardless of the amount of empty space, can influence the global buckling behavior of brace significantly.

강구조 설계는 재료의 비탄성 변형능력을 활용하는 정도에 따라 탄성설계법, 소성설계법, 내진설계법으로 대별할 수 있다. 현재 국내외 강구조 설계기준에서는 항복강도 450MPa를 초과하는 고강도강재에 대해서는 비탄성 변형능력에 대한 우려와 국부좌굴 및 횡좌굴 거동에 대한 실험자료의 부족으로 소성설계의 적용을 금하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반강재를 대상으로 개발된 현행 강구조설계기준의 플랜지 판폭두께비 제한식을 최근에 개발된 고강도강재인 HSB800에도 그대로 확대 적용할 수 있는지 여부를 확인하고 고강도강 휨부재의 국부좌굴 및 비탄성거동을 파악하기 위한 실물대실험을 수행하였다. HSB800 및 SM490A(비교강종) 강재로 조립된 H형강 휨부재를 각각 5개씩 총 10개의 실험체를 제작하고 실험하여 비교분석하였다. 모든 SM490A 비교실험체는 설계기준 상의 판폭두께비에 따른 요구강도와 연성능력을 충분히 발휘하였다. HSB800 실험체 역시 강도 발현의 측면에서는 매우 만족스런 성능을 발휘하였다. 즉, 비콤팩트 및 세장판 요소 플랜지를 지닌 실험체에서도 소성모멘트를 충분히 상회하거나 이에 육박하는 강도가 발현되었다. 이는 현행 판폭두께비 제한규정을 HSB800 고강도강에 그대로 적용해도 강성과 강도 확보를 목표로 하는 모든 탄성설계에 충분히 보수적으로 적용할 수 있음을 의미한다. 그러나 SM490 실험체와는 달리 HSB800 실험체 5개 가운데 3개가 가력점 스티프너와 접합된 하부플랜지에서 조기 인장파단이 발생하여 소성설계에 요구되는 회전능력 R=3에는 미달하였다. HSB800 실험체에서 관측된 파단원인을 규명하고 고강도강재에 보다 적합한 판폭두께비의 정립을 위한 추가실험과 해석적 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Buckling of longitudinal bars is a brittle failure mechanism, often recorded in reinforced concrete (RC) structures after an earthquake. Studies in the literature highlights that it often occurs when steel is in the post elastic range, by inducing a modification of the engineered stress-strain law of steel in compression. A proper evaluation of this effect is of fundamental importance for correctly evaluating capacity and ductility of structures. Significant errors can be obtained in terms of ultimate bending moment and curvature ductility of an RC section if these effects are not accounted, as well as incorrect evaluations are achieved by non-linear static analyses. This paper presents a numerical investigation aiming to evaluate the engineered stress-strain law of reinforcing steel in compression, including second order effects. Non-linear FE analyses are performed under the assumption of local buckling. A role of key parameters is evaluated, making difference between steel with strain hardening or with perfectly plastic behaviour. Comparisons with experimental data available in the literature confirm the accuracy of the achieved results and make it possible to formulate recommendations for design purposes. Finally, comparisons are made with analytical formulations available in the literature and based on obtained results, a modification of the stress-strain law model of Dhakal and Maekawa (2002) is proposed for fitting the numerical predictions.

As one of the most common failure types of arch bridges, stability is one of the critical aspects for the design of arch bridges. Using 3D finite element model in ABAQUS, this paper has studied the stability performance of an arch bridge with inclined arch ribs and hangers, and the analysis also took the effects of geometrical and material nonlinearity into account. The impact of local buckling and residual stress of steel plates on global stability and the applicability of fiber model in stability analysis for steel arch bridges were also investigated. The results demonstrate an excellent stability of the arch bridge because of the transverse constraint provided by transversely-inclined hangers. The distortion of cross section, local buckling and residual stress of ribs has an insignificant effect on the stability of the structure, and the accurate ultimate strength may be obtained from a fiber model analysis. This study also shows that the yielding of the arch ribs has a significant impact on the ultimate capacity of the structure, and the bearing capacity may also be approximately estimated by the initial yield strength of the arch rib.

Steel tubes have an efficient shape with large second moment of inertia relative to their light weight. One of the main problems of these members is their low buckling resistance caused from having thin walls. In this study, steel foams with high strength over weight ratio is used to fill the steel tube to beneficially modify the response of steel tubes. The linear eigenvalue and plastic collapse FE analysis is done on steel foam filled tube under pure compression and three point bending simulation. It is shown that steel foam improves the maximum strength and the ability of energy absorption of the steel tubes significantly. Different configurations with different volume of steel foam and composite behavior is investigated. It is demonstrated that there are some optimum configurations with more efficient behavior. If composite action between steel foam and steel increases, the strength of the element will improve, in a way that, the failure mode change from local buckling to yielding.
