Current seismic design philosophy for reinforced concrete (RC) structures on energy dissipation through large inelastic defomations. A nonlinear dynamic analysis which is used to represent this behavior is time consuming and expensive, particularly if the computations have to be repeated many times. Therefore, the selection of an efficient yet accurate alogorithm becomes important. The main objective of the present study is to propose a new technique herein called the prediction approach with siffness measure (PASM) method in the convetional direct integration methods, the triangular decomposition of matrix is required for solving equations of motion in every time step or every iteration. The PASM method uses a limited number of predetermined decomposed effective matrices obtained from stiffness states of the structure when it is deformed into the nonlinear range by statically applied cyclic loading. The method to be developed herein will reduce the overall numerical effort when compared to approaches which recompute the stiffness in each time step or iteration.

This study is performed to understand complex behavior and to investigate the rational analysis methods for seismic design of the curved bridges. To analyze the curved bridges for the seismic loadings, it is used that the finite element analysis program has the 7-dof curved beam and straight beam element. The free vibration characteristics of the curved bridges are compared with the straight bridges that have span length same as the average arc length of inside and outside girder of those. For the same case, the dynamic behavior is compared under seismic loadings. It is found that regular bridges classified by AASHTO are analyzed as if those were straight. To investigate the dynamic behavior of general curved bridges under seismic loading, the seismic loading directions and the subtended angle of curved bridges are varied.

복소모드 중첩법은 점탄성 감쇠기가 설치된 비비례 감쇠시스템의 정확한 동적 거동을 예측할 수 있는 방법이지만 많은 자유도를 갖는 고층건물의 해석시 고유치 해석과 모드중첩과정에서 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 모형화를 위하여 강막가정과 행렬응축기법을 적용하고 구조물의 진동에 영향을 주는 주요모드의 선택을 위한 복소모드 응답참여계수를 제안하므로써 복소모드 중첩법의 효율성은 높였다. 또한 비비례 감쇠시스템에서 감쇠를 고려하여 응답스펙트럼을 재구성한후 선택된 주요 모드를 중첩하여 최대층간변위가 발생하는 곳에 감쇠기를 설치하였다 이 방법은 감쇠기가 설치된 구조물에 대하여 만족되는 수준의 최대층간변위가 발생할 때 까지 고유치 해석만을 반복.수행하면서 감쇠기를 연속적으로 설치하는 방법이다. 제안된 방법의 정확성과 효율성을 검토하기 위하여 예제 구조물의 대상으로 해석한 결과 응답의 정확성을 유지하면서 해석에 필요한 시간을 대폭 절감할 수 있었다.

Numerical analysis model is proposed to predict the dynamic behavior of a single-degree-of-freedom structure that is equipped with hybrid base isolation system. Hybrid base isolation system is composed of friction pendulum systems (FPS) and a magnetorheological (MR) damper. A neuro-fuzzy model is used to represent dynamic behavior of the MR damper. Fuzzy model of the MR damper is trained by ANFIS (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) using various displacement, velocity, and voltage combinations that are obtained from a series of performance tests. Modelling of the FPS is carried out with a nonlinear analytical equation that is derived in this study and neuro-fuzzy training. Fuzzy logic controller is employed to control the command voltage that is sent to MR damper. The dynamic responses of experimental structure subjected to various earthquake excitations are compared with numerically simulated results using neuro-fuzzy modeling method. Numerical simulation using neuro-fuzzy models of the MR damper and FPS predict response of the hybrid base isolation system very well.

The spindle is the main component in machine tools. The static and dynamic characteristics of the spindle directly affect the machining accuracy of workpieces. The characteristics of the spindle depend on the shaft size, bearing span, built-in motor location, and so on. Therefore, the appropriate selection of these parameters is important to improve the spindle characteristics. This paper presents the analysis of the static and dynamic characteristics and optimization design of a 40,000-rpm high-speed spindle. Statistical analysis for optimization and finite element analysis were performed. This study uses the response surface method to optimize the objective function and design factors. The targets are the natural frequency and displacement. The design factors are the shaft length, shaft diameter, bearing span, and motor location. The optimized design provides better results than the initial model, and these results are expected to improve the static and dynamic characteristics of the spindle.

The spectral element modeling is known to provide very accurate structural dynamic characteristics, while reducing the number of degree-of-freedom to resolve the computational and cost problems. Thus, the spectral element model with variational method for an axially moving string subjected to axial tension is developed in the present paper. The high accuracy of the spectral element model is the verified by comparing its solutions with the conventional finite element solutions and exact analytical solutions. The effects of the moving speed and axial tension the vibration characteristics, wave characteristics, and the static and dynamic stabilities of a moving string are investigated.

For the design of various structures, the dynamic analysis of the structures is essential. Eigenproblem must be first computed when the mode superposition method is used in the dynamic analysis of the structures. However, since most of solution time is spent on calculating the eigenpairs of the system, the development of more efficient solution method is required. The purpose of this paper is to present the efficient solution method that combines the Robinson-Lee's method and accelerated Newton-Raphson method to improve numerical stability and increase convergence. Effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through numerical examples.

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.

A numerical procedure is described for simultaneously predicting the motion and structural responses of tension leg platforms (TLPs) in multi-directional irregular waves. The developed numerical approach is based on a combination of a three dimensional source distribution method, the finite element method for structurally treating the space frame elements and a spectral analysis technique of directional waves. The spectral description for the linear responses of a structure in the frequency domain is sufficient to completely define the responses. This is because both the wave inputs and the responses are stationary Gaussian ran dom process of which the statistical properties in the amplitude domain are well known. The hydrodynamic interactions among TLP members, such as columns and pontoons, are included in the motion and structural analysis. The effect of wave directionality has been pointed out on the first order motion, tether forces and structural responses of a TLP in multi-directional irregular waves.

A test method has been attempted to estimate the soil stiffness by measuring and analyzing dynamic signals of stress waves reflected at the bottom end of the SPT rod contacting a soil deposit. Before conducting a real size testing, a series of parametric studies were conducted in this paper to examine the applicability and the theoretical adequacy of the test method. As a result of these studies, it has been shown that the most significant influence factor affecting the amplitude ratio of the reflected wave to the incident wave at the rod-soil interface was the variation of soil stiffness. Also, the variation of the amplitude ratio was found to be closely related with the variation of impedance ratio of the soil deposit to the SPT rod. As a result, a potential of the test method could be proved to estimate the impedance and the elastic modulus of the soil deposit interfaced with the SPT rod using the test method.
