In this study, a computationally efficient parallel axial-flexural plastic hinge model is proposed for nonlinear dynamic progressive collapse analysis of welded steel moment frames. To this end, post-yield flexural behavior and the interaction of bending moment and axial force of the double-span beams in the column's missing event was first investigated by using material and geometric nonlinear parametric finite element analysis. A piece-wise linear parallel point hinge model that captures the moment-axial tension interaction was then proposed and applied to nonlinear dynamic progressive collapse analysis of welded steel moment frames with the use of the OpenSees Program. The accuracy as well as the efficiency of the proposed model was verified based on the inelastic dynamic finite element analysis results. The importance of including the catenary action effects for proper progressive collapse resistant analysis and design was also emphasized.

본 논문에서는 화학공정의 이상 진단을 위한 지식 기반 조업 지원 시스템의 개발에 관하여 살펴보고자 한다. 조업지원 시스템에서 가장 핵심적인 부분은 공정에 비정상 상황이 발생한 경우 이를 감지하고, 공정에 발생한 증상들을 분석하여 이상의 근본 원인을 찾아내는 작업-이상 진단이다. 이상 진단을 효과적으로 수행하기 위해서는 적절한 데이터의 해석이 매우 중요한데, 기존의 데이터 해석법들은 정상상태에 기반한 방법들을 동적거동을 효과적으로 표현하기에는 어려움이 많다. 본 연구에서는 RBF에 기반한 신경망을 사용하여 동적을 효과적으로 표현할 수 있는 정성적인 데이터 해석 모듈을 구축하였으며, 이 모듈에서는 공정에서 측정된 정략적인 센서값들을 정성적인 정보로 가공하여 이상진단 모듈에 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 효과적인 이상진단을 위하여 기존의 인과관계 그래프 모델(Cause Effect DiGraph)에 기반한 두가지 그래프 모델을 개발하였다. RCED(Reduced Caue Effect Digraph)는 공정의 측정 변수만으로 공정의 인과관계를 표현하는 오프라인으로 구축된 지식베이스 모델이며, PGTT(Pattern Graph Through Time)는 공정에서 발생한 증상간의 인과관계를 실시간으로 나타내는 동적인 모델이다. 이상, 신경망에 기반한 정성적인 데이터 해석 모듈과 이상진단 모듈을 전문가 시스템 도구인 G2를 DEC AlphaStation 상에서 폴리프로필렌 공정에 대한 조업지원전문가 시스템을 구축하고 이를 적용하여보았다.

Traditional nonlinear static and dynamic analyses do not accurately estimate the energy dissipation capacity of reinforced concrete structure. Recently, simple equations which can accurately calculate the energy dissipation capacity of flexure-dominated RC members, were developed in the companion study. In the present study, nonlinear static and dynamic analytical methods improved using the energy-evaluation method were developed. For nonlinear static analysis, the Capacity Spectrum Method was improved by using the energy-spectrum curve newly developed. For nonlinear dynamic analysis, a simplified energy-based cyclic model of reinforced concrete member was developed. Unlike the existing cyclic models which are the stiffness-based models, the proposed cyclic model can accurately estimate the energy dissipating during complete load-cycles. The procedure of the proposed methods was established and the computer program incorporating the analytical method was developed. The proposed analytical methods can estimate accurately the energy dissipation capacity varying with the design parameters such as shape of cross-section, reinforcement ratio and arrangement, and can address the effect of the energy dissipation capacity on the structural performance under earthquake load.

A state-based peridynamic model is able to describe a general constitutive model from the standard continuum theory. The response of a material at a point is dependent on the deformation of all bonds connected to the point within the nonlocal horizon region. Therefore, the state-based peridynamic model permits both the volume and shear changes of the material which is promising to reproduce the complicated dynamic brittle fracture phenomena, such as crack branching, secondary cracks, cascade cracks, crack coalescence, etc. In this paper, the two-dimensional state-based peridynamic model for a linear elastic plane stress solid is employed. The damage model incorporates the energy release rate and the peridynamic energy potential. For brittle glass materials, the impact of the crack-parallel compressive stress waves on the crack branching pattern is investigated. The peridynamic solution for this problem captures the main features, observed experimentally, of dynamic crack propagation and branching. Cascade cracks under strong tensile loading and secondary cracks are also well reproduced with the state-based peridynamic simulations.

A numerical procedure is presented fur evaluating seismic liquefaction on sloping ground sites. The procedure uses a fully coupled dynamic effective stress analysis with a plastic constitutive model called UBCSAND. The model was first calibrated against laboratory element behavior. This involved cyclic simple shear tests performed on loose sand with and without initial static shear stress. The numerical procedure is then verified by predicting a centrifuge test with a slope performed on loose Fraser River sand. The predicted excess pore pressures, accelerations and displacements are compared with the measurements. The results are shown to be in good agreement. The shear stress reversal patterns depend on static and cyclic shear stress levels and are shown to play a key role in evaluating liquefaction response in sloping ground sites. The sand near the slope has low effective confining stress and dilates more. When no stress reversals occur, the sand behaves in a stiffer manner that curtails the accumulated downslope displacements. The numerical procedure using UBCSAND can serve as a guide for design of new soil structures or retrofit of existing ones.

The purpose of the study presented in this paper is to develope the general model for capture of the linear and nonlinear response of a flexible diaphragm building in which there are significant contributions from the out-of-plane walls. Two single-story single-diaphragm half scale reinforced masonry buildings were tested by researchers at the United States Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (CERL). The first had a metal deck diaphragm. The second specimen had a diaphragm with a single layer of diagonal lumber sheathing, A multiple degree of freedom (MDOF) approach is adopted in this paper. The required stiffnesses and strengths of the components within this model are determined.

MR 유체 감쇠기는 구조물의 진동을 감소시키기 위한 가장 유망하고 새로운 제진 (制振) 장치 중 하나이다. 이 장치는 기계적인 단순성, 높은 동적 범위, 적은 전력 요구량, 커다란 감쇠 능력, 강인성 등의 장점을 가지고 있기 때문에, 토목 구조 시스템의 내진(耐震) 및 내풍(耐風) 성능을 향상시키는데 매우 유용하다. 많은 연구자들이 MR 유체 감쇠기의 유사-정적 모델을 연구했지만 그 모델이 감쇠기의 설계를 위해서는 유용하다고 하더라도, 동적 하중에 대한 감쇠기의 거동을 모사하는 데는 충분하지 않다. 논문에서는 대용량 20톤 MR 유체 감쇠기의 동적하중에 대한 응답 해석 결과를 이용하여, Bouc-Wen 모델을 기반으로 하는 새로운 역학적 모델을 제안하였다. 이 모델은 MR 유체의 stiction현상과 관성 및 shear thinning 효과를 잘 묘사한다. 또한, 제안된 MR 유체 감쇠기의 동적 모델이 실험 결과와 매우 잘 일치함을 보였다.

This study aims to investigate the dynamic interaction characteristics between Maglev vehicles and an elevated guideway. A more detailed model for the dynamic interaction of the vehicle/guideway is proposed. The proposed model incorporates a 3D full vehicle model based on prototyping, flexible guideway by a modal superposition method, and levitation electromagnets including the feedback controller into an integrated model. The proposed model was applied to an urban transit Maglev developed for a commercial application to analyze the dynamic response of the vehicle and guideway, and the effect of the surface roughness of the rail, mid-span guideway deflections, and air gap variations are then investigated from the numerical simulation.

A dynamic analysis procedure is developed to provide a better estimation of the dynamic responses of pre-stressed concrete (PSC) box girder bridges on the Korea high speed railway. Particularly, a three dimensional numerical model including the structural interaction between high speed vehicles, bridges and railway endures to analyze accurately and evaluate with in-depth parametric studies for dynamic responses of bridge due to the high speed railway vehicles. Three dimensional frame element is used to model the PSC box girder bridges, simply supported span lengths 40 m. The high-speed railway vehicles (K-TGV) including a locomotive are used as 38-degree of freedom system. Three displacements (vertical, lateral, and longitudinal) as well as three rotational components (pitching, rolling, and yawing) are considered in the 38-degree of freedom model. The dynamic analysis by Runge-Kutta method which are able to analyze considering the dynamic impact factors are compared and contrasted. It is proposed as an empirical formula that the impact factors damaged the bridge load-carrying capacities occurs to the bride due to high-speed vehicle.
