Abstract

The hybrid structural experiment decomposes a structure into independent substructures that can be tested or simulated. The substructures being tested or simulated may be distributed at different facilities of different locations, and are managed by the simulation coordinator. There exist interactions among the simulation coordinator and the substructures since they give and receive the commands and feedbacks during the experimental process. These interactions are described in this paper for an example hybrid structural experiment using the classes and objects in the Lehigh Model which is one of the data models for structural experiments. The simulation coordinator and the substructures have the objects for the interaction data files, and are linked together through the same types of the interface links. The objects for the interactions presented in this paper can be implemented in a consistent way, and be used for developing the computer system for the hybrid structural experiments.

하이브리드 구조실험에서는 전체구조물을 여러 개의 부분구조물로 나누어서 실험과 해석을 수행한다. 실험을 위한 부분 구조물들과 해석을 위한 부분구조물들은 지역적으로 서로 다른 장소에서 실험과 해석이 수행될 수 있으며, 이 부분구조물들의 실험과 해석은 시뮬레이션 코디네이터에 의하여 통제된다. 하이브리드 구조실험을 수행하는 동안에 시뮬레이션 코디네이터와 부분구조물들은 서로 간에 데이터 교환이 이루어지는 상호작용을 하게 된다. 본 논문은 이러한 상호작용을 기술하고 있는데, 하나의 하이브리드 구조실험 예제에 대하여 시뮬레이션 코디네이터와 부분구조물들 사이의 상호작용을 데이터 모델의 하나인 리하이 모델의 클래스와 객체를 통하여 표현하였다. 시뮬레이션 코디네이터와 부분구조물들은 각자의 데이터 저장을 위한 객체를 가지도록 구성하였고, 서로간의 연결은 동일한 형식의 인터페이스 링크를 사용하여 처리하였다. 본 논문에서 설명한 객체들은 일관된 방법에 의하여 구현하였는데, 하이브리드 구조실험을 위한 컴퓨터 시스템의 개발에 사용할 수 있다.
