To resolve several arguments raised for the current analysis of a structure like top hat, which is composed of flange, cylinder and plate, the dynamic response analysis is performed for the full and half models. The dynamic characteristics are investigated for full and half models and the results are compared between them. The responses such as bolt reactions and stresses due to random loading are also obtained using the analysis capabilities between commercial programs which have the routine for the random vibration analysis. Several general purpose structural analysis programs are used to get the response due to the random loadings. Also the application of the random loading and the effect of correlations such as fully correlated, partially correlated and fully uncorrelated cases are studied and the general directions for the generation of design loads due to random loading are suggested.

This paper presents the dynamic instability analysis of un-damped elastically supported piezoelectric functionally graded (FG) beams subjected to in-plane static and dynamic periodic thermomechanical loadings with uncertain system properties. The elastic foundation model is assumed as one parameter Pasternak foundation with Winkler cubic nonlinearity. The piezoelectric FG beam is subjected to non-uniform temperature distribution with temperature dependent material properties. The Young's modulus and Poison's ratio of ceramic, metal and piezoelectric, density of respective ceramic and metal, volume fraction exponent and foundation parameters are taken as uncertain system properties. The basic nonlinear formulation of the beam is based on higher order shear deformation theory (HSDT) with von-Karman strain kinematics. The governing deterministic static and dynamic random instability equation and regions is solved by Bolotin's approach with Newmark's time integration method combined with first order perturbation technique (FOPT). Typical numerical results in terms of the mean and standard deviation of dynamic instability analysis are presented to examine the effect of slenderness ratios, volume fraction exponents, foundation parameters, amplitude ratios, temperature increments and position of piezoelectric layers by changing the random system properties. The correctness of the present stochastic model is examined by comparing the results with direct Monte Caro simulation (MCS).

본 연구는 규모가 큰 지진하중에 대한 해양 가이드 타워의 비정상과정 거동해법에 주안점을 두었으며, 아울러 작은 파랑이나 조류하중이 동시에 작용할 수 있는 경우도 고려하였다. 지진에 의한 지반운동의 비정상특성은 정상과정 성분에 지수함수의 시간포락함수를 곱하는 형태로 모형화하였다. 동적거동의 비정상과정 분산값을 해석적인 방법으로 산출하였다. 운동방정식에 계류장치의 비선형 복원력과 파동에 의한 비선형 점성저항력을 추계론적 최적화기법으로 선형화하여 동적해석을 수행하였다. 지진의 발생기간동안 예상되는 중급의 파랑하중에 의한 영향을 최대거동 산정시 고려하였다. 중급 파고조건에 대한 파랑하중은 지속기간이 상당히 길어서 정상과정으로 취급할 수 있으므로 이에 대해서는 주파수 영역해석을 사용하여 동적거동을 산출하고 이 결과를 지진에 의한 비정상과정거동에 반영하였다. 예제해석으로부터 비정상과정 해석방법을 검증하고, 지진과 파랑 및 조류하중의 각 성분이 전체응답에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다.

이 논문에서는 보행교의 진동 사용성 평가에 있어서 보행자의 이동 질량 관성 효과의 고려 여부, 보행 패턴 등을 고려한 보행 시나리오 등에 따른 해석 결과를 제시하고, 그에 따라 보행교 설계 단계에서 동적 유한요소 해석을 통한 진동 사용성 평가에 있어 적절한 해석 방법과 유의점을 제안한다. 지간 40m의 강합성 박스 단면을 갖는 단경간 단순교 형식의 보행교에 대하여 보행자 밀도, 보행 속도, 임의 보행, 동기화 보행 등을 고려한 보행 시나리오에 대한 가속도 응답을 분석한다. 해석 결과 고정 질량 해석 방법은 임의 보행 시나리오 해석에서 이동 질량 해석과 큰 차이를 보이지 않으며 진동 사용성 평가시에는 더 넓은 진동수 대역을 가진할 수 있는 임의 보행 시나리오를 고려하는 것이 바람직할 수 있음을 보였다.

A numerical model analysis was performed to analyze the stability of the mooring lines of an automatic submersible fish cage system in waves and currents. The fish cage system consisted of a 12-angled rigid frame, net cage, cover net, 12 upper floats, 12 tanks(for fixed and variable ballast), mooring lines, anchors, and a control station. Simulations were performed with the cage at the surface of the water and at a depth of 20 m. A Morison equation type model was used for simulations of the system in two configurations. The force parameters described both regular and random waves, with and without currents, and their values were input to the model. Mooring tension calculations were conducted on the mooring lines, grid lines and lower bridle lines of the cage. The stability of the mooring lines was checked under both static and dynamic conditions.

Importance sampling methods have been developed with the aim of reducing the computational costs inherent in Monte Carlo methods. This study proposes a new algorithm called the adaptive kernel method which combines and modifies some of the concepts from adaptive sampling and the simple kernel method to evaluate the structural reliability of time variant problems. The essence of the resulting algorithm is to select an appropriate starting point from which the importance sampling density can be generated efficiently. Numerical results show that the method is unbiased and substantially increases the efficiency over other methods.

This research work presents a study that aims to assess the dynamic structural behaviour and also investigate the human comfort levels of a reinforced concrete building, when subjected to nondeterministic wind dynamic loadings, considering the effect of masonry infills on the global stiffness of the structural model. In general, the masonry fills most of the empty areas within the structural frames of the buildings. Although these masonry infills present structural stiffness, the common practice of engineers is to adopt them as static loads, disregarding the effect of the masonry infills on the global stiffness of the structural system. This way, in this study a numerical model based on sixteen-storey reinforced concrete building with 48 m high and dimensions of $14.20m{\times}15m$ was analysed. This way, static, modal and dynamic analyses were carried out in order to simulate the structural model based on two different strategies: no masonry infills and masonry infills simulated by shell finite elements. In this investigation, the wind action is considered as a nondeterministic process with unstable properties and also random characteristics. The fluctuating parcel of the wind is decomposed into a finite number of harmonic functions proportional to the structure resonant frequency with phase angles randomly determined. The nondeterministic dynamic analysis clearly demonstrates the relevance of a more realistic numerical modelling of the masonry infills, due to the modifications on the global structural stiffness of the building. The maximum displacements and peak accelerations values were reduced when the effect of the masonry infills (structural stiffness) were considered in the dynamic analysis. Finally, it can be concluded that the human comfort evaluation of the sixteen-storey reinforced concrete building can be altered in a favourable way to design.

This paper discusses the applicability of Acoustic Emission (AE) to assess the damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures subjected to complex dynamic loadings such as those induced by earthquakes. The AE signals recorded during this type of event can be complicated due to the arbitrary and random nature of seismicity and the fact that the signals are highly contaminated by many spurious sources of noise. This paper demonstrates that by properly filtering the AE signals, a very good correlation can be found between AE and damage on the RC structure. The basic experimental data used for this research are the results of fourteen seismic simulations conducted with a shake table on an RC slab supported on four steel columns. The AE signals were recorded by several low-frequency piezoelectric sensors located on the bottom surface of the slab. The evolution of damage under increasing values of peak acceleration applied to the shake table was monitored in terms of AE and dissipated plastic strain energy. A strong correlation was found between the energy dissipated by the concrete through plastic deformations and the AE energy calculated after properly filtering the signals. For this reason, a procedure is proposed to analyze the AE measured in a RC structure during a seismic event so that it can be used for damage assessment.
