This paper deals with multiobjective optimization of symmetrically laminated composite truncated circular conical shells subjected to external uniform pressure load and thermal load. The design objective is the maximization of the weighted sum of the critical buckling load and fundamental frequency. The design variable is the fibre orientations in the layers. The performance index is formulated as the weighted sum of individual objectives in order to obtain optimal solutions of the design problem. The first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT) is used in the mathematical formulation of laminated truncated conical shells. Finally, the effect of different weighting factors, length-to-radius ratio, semi-cone angle and boundary conditions on the optimal design is investigated and the results are compared.

For many decades, railroad technology was used to set up tracks with jointed rails and lengths in accordance with rolling and handling technology. The joints lead to drawbacks in the track and in controlling rising maintenance costs. So, railroad engineers became interested in eliminating joints to increase loads, speeds and improvements in rolling, welding, and fastening technology. Continuous welded rail(CWR) track has many advantages over the conventional jointed-rail track. In the case of the elimination of rail joints, it may cause the track to be suddenly and laterally buckled by thermal forces and vehicle load. Thermal forces are caused by an increase in the temperature of railway track. For many years, many analytical and experimental investigations have been conducted to improve the safety of CWR track by various research center in many country. In this paper, CWR track model and CWRB program is developed for buckling analysis using finite element method(FEM). The finite element discretization is used for a rail element with a total of 14 degrees of freedom. The stiffness of the fasteners, tie, and ballast bed is included by a set of spring elements. The investigation on the buckling modes and temperature of CWR track is presented in this paper

Tests on steel tubular columns of square, rectangular and circular section filled with normal and lightweight aggregate concrete were conducted to investigate the failure modes of such composite columns. Thirty-six full scale columns filled with lightweight and normal weight aggregate concrete, eighteen specimens for each, were tested under axial loads. Nine hollow steel sections of similar specimens were also tested and results were compared to those of filled sections. The test results were illustrated by a number of load-deflection and axial deformation curves. The results showed that both types of filled columns failed due to overall buckling, while hollow steel columns failed due to bulging at their ends (local buckling). According to the above-mentioned results, and due to low specific gravity and thermal conductivity of the lightweight concrete the further interest should be concentrated in replacing the normal concrete by the lightweight aggregate concrete.

This study attempts to address the buckling and free vibration characteristics of an isotropic cylindrical panel subjected to non-uniform temperature rise using numerical approach. Finite element analysis has been used in the present study. The approach involves three parts, in the first part non-uniform temperature field is obtained using heat transfer analysis, in the second part, the stress field is computed under the thermal load using static condition and, the last part, the buckling and pre-stressed modal analysis are carried out to compute critical buckling temperature as well as natural frequencies and associated mode shapes. In the present study, the effect of non-uniform temperature field, heat sink temperatures and in-plane boundary constraints are considered. The relation between buckling temperature under uniform and non-uniform temperature fields has been established. Results revealed that decrease (Case (ii)) type temperature variation field influences the fundamental buckling mode shape significantly. Further, it is observed that natural frequencies under free vibration state, decreases as temperature increases. However, the reduction is significantly higher for the lowest natural frequency. It is also found that, with an increase in temperature, nodal and anti-nodal positions of free vibration mode shapes is shifting towards the location where the intensity of the heat source is high and structural stiffness is low.

수십 년 동안, 철도는 차량의 운영과 조작 기술에 맞추어 짧은 길이의 레일을 서로 신축 이음을 두고 연결한 궤도를 이용하여 건설되었다. 그러나 이러한 신축이음들은 궤도 손상과 유지비 증가 등의 많은 단점들을 유발시켰다. 그래서, 철도 기술자들은 차량, 용접, 체결의 기술이 발전함에 따라 열차 하중, 속도의 증가를 위해 레일 사이의 신축 이음을 제거하는 데 많은 관심을 가지게 되었다. 그래서 최근 등장한 것이 기존 레일의 단점들을 해소할 수 있는 CWR궤도이다. 그러나 이러한 CWR궤도는 기존 레일의 단점을 극복할 수 있었으나 레일의 장대화에 따른 온도 하중으로 인한 레일의 좌굴 문제를 야기시켰다. 본 논문에서는 유한 요소 해석을 이용하여 선형 좌굴 해석을 위한 CWR 궤도의 모델과 해석 프로그램인 CWRB를 개발하였다. 레일의 해석 모델은 레일요소 당딤을 고려한 14개의 자유도로 나타내었으며, 체결재, 침목, 도상 저항력을 스프링 요소를 사용하였다. 장대레일의 온도하중에 의한 좌굴 온도 및 모드의 분석으로 장대레일의 온도 좌굴 특성을 고찰하였다.

수 십년 동안 철도는 비교적 짧은 길이의 레일을 신축이음을 두고 연결한 궤도로 건설되었다. 신축 이음은 궤도에 손상과 유지비 증가 등의 많은 단점들을 유발시켰다. 그래서 철도 기술자들은 신축이음부를 제거하는데 관심을 가지게 되었다. 장대레일 궤도는 기존의 레일에 비해 많은 잇점들을 가지게 되었지만, 온도에 의한 갑작스런 횡방향 좌굴이라는 새로운 문제를 야기 시켰다. 본 연구에서는 우선 침목의 영향을 정확히 고려한 장대 레일 궤도의 3차원 해석 모텔과 해석 프로그램을 유한 요소법을 사용하여 개발하여 선형 정적 해석 및 좌굴 해석을 수행할 수 있도록 하였다. 개발된 해석 모델의 특징은 레일요소로 7자유도의 보요소를 사용한 것과 궤도 구성요소의 도심축의 차이를 정확히 고려한 옵셋기법의 사용, 그리고 레일 단면내의 온도 구배를 고려한 것이다. 다음으로, CWRB에 의한 선형 정적해석 및 좌굴해석을 통해, 장대레일 궤도의 거동 및 안정성에대한 다양한 궤도 구성요소들(레일, 도상, 체결재, 침목 등..)의 영향을 고찰하였다.

벽식 스틸하우스 벽체의 구조재로 적용되어 오고 있는 박판냉간성형형강 스터드의 경우 열교현상에 의한 단열상의 문제를 가지고 있기 때문에 추가적인 단열재의 사용이 요구된다. 이러한 단열 문제를 해결하기 위하여 웨브에 슬릿이 배치된 냉간성형강 단열스터드가 개발되었다. 그러나 슬릿의 배치로 인하여 단면강도 산정은 대단히 어려운 문제점이 되고 있다. 본 논문에는 단열스터드의 압축강도 및 구조적인 거동에 대한 실험 및 해석적인 연구결과를 기술하였다. 슬릿의 길이, 간격 및 배열형태를 달리하는 세 종류의 단열스터드에 대한 압축실험을 단면의 파괴 시까지 수행하였으며, 실험 및 해석결과에 근거하여 복부에 슬릿이 있는 냉간성형강 스터드에 적용하기 위한 단순한 형태의 강도 산정방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 강도산정법에서는 단열스터드를 등가두께의 슬릿이 없는 일반스터드로 대치하고, 이 등가단면에 직접강도법을 적용하여 단열스터드의 공칭압축강도를 산출한다. 제안된 강도산정방법은 단열스터드 실험결과와 비교하여 검증하였다.

Nonlinear dynamics of active piezolaminated plates are investigated with respect to the thermopiezoelastic behaviors. For largely deformed structures with small strain, the incremental total Lagrangian formulation is presented based on the virtual work principles. A multi field layer wise finite shell element is proposed for assuring high accuracy and non-linearity of displacement, electric and thermal fields. For dynamic consideration of thermopiezoelastic snap through phenomena, the implicit Newmark's scheme with the Newton-Raphson iteration is implemented for the transient response of various piezolaminated models with symmetric or eccentric active layers. The bifurcate thermal buckling of symmetric structural models is first investigated and the characteristics of piezoelectric active responses are studied for finding snap through piezoelectric potentials and the load path tracking map. The thermoelastic stable and unstable postbuckling, thermopiezoelastic snap through phenomena with several attractors are proved using the nonlinear time responses for various initial conditions and damping loss factors. Present results show that thermopiezoelastic snap through phenomena can result in the difficulty of buckling and postbuckling control of intelligent structures.
