본 논문에서는 확률적 불확실성을 포함한 손상 장에서 강성저감 효과를 추정하는 방법을 제안하였다. 실제 교량 구조물에 분포된 손상 장은 매우 불확실하며 손상의 위치와 형상 또한 정확히 알 수 없는 경우가 많다. 그러나 대부분의 손상 추정 문제는 균열이나 손상의 위치와 형상을 기지의 주어진 정보로 가정하고 손상을 추정한다. 제안 기법에서는 이러한 손상의 위치와 형태가 본질적으로 불확실하다는 가정 하에 이 불확실성을 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수를 도입하여 기술한다. 교량에 국부적으로 발생된 손상은 교량의 요소강성의 저감 분포로 변환되어 손상이 발생한 전체 시스템의 강성을 표현하고 이를 통해 손상이 발생한 시스템의 전체 응답을 해석할 수 있게 된다. 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수는 손상 분포의 개략적 중심을 표현하는 평균 변수와 강성 저감의 비국소적 분포 특성을 묘사하는 표준편차 변수, 손상 중심의 손상 정도를 표현하는 강성저감 변수로 구성된다. 본 논문에서는 손상 장에서 손상의 위치나 형태에 대한 확률적 불확실성을 기술하는 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수를 포함한 유한요소모델을 정식화하여 제시한다. 또한 단일 또는 복합 균열로 인해 교량 구조물에 국부적인 손상이 야기된 경우에 대한 수치 예제를 통하여 균열 등에 대한 정보가 불확실하더라도 수정 가우스 강성 저감 분포 함수를 통해 강성 저감 효과가 분석될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In general, a system can be stable when it is designed with a rigid material. However, the use of a rigid system can be limited, such as grasping a glass or using a small surgical instrument. To resolve this limitation, a variable stiffness mechanism was developed using a flexible material. Previous research verified the variable stiffness mechanism where flexible segments and rigid segments were connected alternately in series. However, research into the design parameters of the variable stiffness structure is needed to satisfy the desired stiffness. Therefore, a variable stiffness structure was tested by varying the design parameters to confirm the trend of the stiffness variation. When the radius of the structure becomes larger, the stiffness increases. The stiffness increased with decreasing length of the flexible segments. Under the same design parameters, the length of the flexible segments had a greater effect on the stiffness than the length of the rigid segments. In addition, the stiffness was estimated using the pseudo rigid body model and was compared with the experimental results. This parametric study can be used as a design guideline for designing the variable stiffness mechanism to satisfy the desired stiffness.

Double angle connections are commonly used for the construction of the low-rise steel framed buildings. Several experimental tests lave been conducted to investigate the effect of the number of bolts on the rotational stiffness of a double angle connection. Several parameters are obtained by performing regression analysis. An analytical model has been introduced to calculate the initial stiffness of a double angle connection in this research.

Displacement, contact pressure and moment which are developed in rigid beam on the Winkler foundation and 2 parameter Winkler foundation were derived. It can be seen that moment distribution along with rigid beam on the Winkler foundation are regardless of spring constant and the moments calculated from assuming linear spring constant were greater than those from assuming constant spring constant. Simple calculation revealed that the maximum moment developed in the rigid beam on the 2 parameter Winkler foundation was larger than that developed in the rigid beam on the Winkler foundation.

This paper describes research on the prediction of the vertical displacement of surface, horizontal displacements and bending moments in two anchored retaining wall for an excavation by a finite element program. It is very important to consider the appropriate constitutive model for the numerical analysis in excavation behavior. It is shown in this paper that the analyses of excavation considering small strain stiffness gives the more reasonable prediction of the vertical displacement of surface. and the parametric study on the small strain stiffness parameters for excavation analysis has been analysed.

응답변위법에서 이용되는 동지반강성계수의 적절한 평가법에 대한 제안을 하였다. 현재까지의 지진피해조사 및 장기간의 지진관측사례는 지반이 공진할 때의 변형모드가 지중구조물의 피해에 가장 직접적으로 관련이 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 지중구조물의 축방향의 지반의 변형모드와 그 타월 진동수를 특정하여 동지반강성계수를 평가했다. 동지반강성계수는 지반의 공진상태를 상정하고 있기 때문에 결과로써 지진파의 축방행 파장의 영향을 받지 않고, 관상구주물의 반경과 표층두께의 비, 표층두께에 대한 구조물의 매설위치, 표층지반과 기반의 임피단스비 라고 하는 3개의 무차원 변수에 의해 표현된다.

Parametric studies on nonhomogeneous pile and homogeneous pile installed in clay were performed through the developed technique to investigate the effects of considered factors on the lateral pile behaviors. Values of the parameters with embedment depths of the two piles having different flexural rigidity show that values of the parameters for more rigid pile were greater than those for smaller one. Parameters for the case of the nonhomogeneous pile were converged to the same ones of the homogeneous pile as nodal point moves away from point of material boundary. In order to determine adequate upper length of the nonhomogeneous pile, changing patterns of the parameters, lateral displacement, member forces and so forth should be compared.

In the geosynthetics-reinforced piled embankment the effects of soft soil stiffness, friction angle of the fill material, tensile stiffness of geosynthetics, and height of the embankment on the load transfer soil arch measured by the critical height were numerically investigated. Results from parametric studies show that the magnitude of the soft soil stiffness is the most influencing factor on the critical height. The contour charts of the critical height with respect to the combination of the soft soil stiffness and other parameters were presented. The charts show that the critical height sensitively varies with the combination of the soft soil stiffness and the height of embankment. Under the sufficiently low stiffness of soft soil, the critical height sensitively varies with the friction angle of the fill material. Once the geosynthetic layer is placed, however, the magnitude of the tensile stiffness of the geosynthetic layer hardly influences the critical height of the soil arch.

This study has two objectives: (1) to evaluate the degradation characteristics of symmetric unbraced steel frames by using analytical approach, and (2) to suggest equation which can approximately estimate the effect of degradation during the schematic design stage. For the analytical approach, the refined plastic hinge method with an arc length algorithm was adopted. The subject of analysis was one story one-bay, multistory one-bay, and multistory three-bay unbraced steel frames. The main parameters of the analytical approach include the stiffness ratio of column to beam and the axial force ratio. The study led to the following conclusions. The normalized stiffness of degradations is affected by both stiffness ratio of column to beam and the axial load ratio; however, the major influence on degradations is the axial force ratio. The equation, which can approximately estimate the effect of degradation, was suggested together with the research results.
