This paper presents the equivalent nodal load for the element stiffness which represents the influence of the stiffness change such as the addition of elements, the deletion of elements, and/or the partial change of element stiffness. The reanalysis of structure using the equivalent load improves the efficiency very much because the inverse of the structural stiffness matrix, which needs a large amount of computation to calculate, is reused in the reanalysis. In this paper, the concept of the equivalent load for the element stiffness is described and some numerical examples are provided to verify it.

P-${\Delta}$ analysis by use of the equivalent colurnn stiffness determined by Momcnt curvature-Thrust curves provides relatively precise analytical results for unbraced reinforced concrete columns, however it needs a complicated arialytical procedure. Equ~valent col~rnn stiffness equations are proposed for a simple analytical procedure which are ckterrnined by the Moment-Curvature Thrust curves of the practically useable sections. Thc proposed stiffness equations are appiled to P-${\Delta}$ analysis and rnornent magnifier method to compare with the selected test result. Use of the proposed stiffness equations may slrnplify the P-${\Delta}$ i.rialvtica1 procedure and improve the accuracy of moment magnifier niethod.

본 연구에서는 회전동력전달계의 진동특성을 해석하고 이를 설계자료로 이용하기 위하여, 계 전체의 유효강성행렬 (effective stiffness matrix)을 실험적으로 결정할 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 이것은 비교적 측정이 용인한 관성행렬이 알려져 있다고 가정한 경우 기존의 선형 모델링을 그대로 이용하고, 위의 모든 기계요소의 해석이 불가능한 강성들을 포함한 등가강성(equivalent stiffness)으로 구성된 계의 유효강성행렬을, 실험에 의해 얻어진 계의 여러 작동상황과 이에 따른 고유진동수에 매칭(matching)시켜 결정하는 것이다. 또한, 이의 검증을 위하여 유성기어와 클러치로 이루어진 가상의 동력전달계를 구성하고 이의 시뮬레이션 결과를 이용하여, 유효강성 결정법을 통해 얻어진 등가강성들과 실제값들의 비교함으로서 그 신뢰도를 추정하였다.

In this paper, the amplitude and frequency dependent dynamic characteristics of the equivalent stiffness of a rubber bushing are investigated. A new mathematical model is proposed to explain the large deformation and size effect of a rubber bushing. The proposed model consists of elastic, viscous, and frictional stress components and the equivalent strain. The proposed model is verified using experimental results. The comparison shows that the proposed model can accurately predict the equivalent stiffness values of a rubber bushing under various magnitudes and frequencies. The developed model could be used to predict the dynamic equivalent stiffness of a rubber bushing in automotive engineering.

In this paper a new equivalent static analysis method of dynamic behavior during progressive collapse is presented. The proposed analysis method uses the equivalent nodal load for the element stiffness which represents the dynamic behavior influence caused by the deletion of elements during progressive collapse analysis. The proposed analysis method improves the efficiency of progressive collapse analysis haying the iterative characteristic because the inverse of the structural stiffness matrix is roused in the reanalysis. By comparing the results obtained by this analysis method with those of GSA code analysis and time history analysis, it is shown that the results obtained by this analysis method more closely approach to those of time history analysis than by GSA code analysis.

This paper presents a new nonlinear analysis algorithm, that is, adaptive Newton-Raphson iteration method, The presented algorithm is based on the existing Newton-Raphson method, and the concept of it can be summarized as calculating the equivalent load for stiffness(ELS) and adapting this to the initial global stiffness matrix which has already been calculated and saved in initial analysis and finally calculating the correction displacements for the nonlinear analysis, The key characteristics of the proposed algorithm is that it calculates the inverse matrix of the global stiffness matrix only once irresponsive of the number of load steps. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm depends on the ratio of the active Dofs - the Dofs which are directly connected to the members of which the element stiffness are changed - to the total Dofs, and based on this ratio by using the proposed algorithm as a complementary method to the existing algorithm the efficiency of the nonlinear analysis can be improved dramatically.

In this study, as part of the development of an autonomous flying personal aircraft, an equivalent model of the main wing assembly of an Optionally Piloted Personal Air Vehicle (OPPAV) was developed. Reliability of the developed equivalent model was verified by eigenvalue analysis. The main wing assembly consisted of a main wing, an inboard pod, and an outboard pod. First, for developing an equivalent model of each component, components to produce the equivalent model were divided into several sections. Nodes were then created on the axis of the equivalent model at both ends of each section. In addition, static analysis with unit force and unit moment was performed to calculate the deformation or the amount of rotation at the node to be used in the equivalent model. Equivalent axial, bending, and torsional stiffness of each section were calculated by applying the beam theory. Once the equivalent stiffness of each section was calculated, information of a mass and moment of inertia for each section was entered by creating a lumped mass in the center of each section. An equivalent model was developed using beam element. Finally, the reliability of the developed equivalent model was verified by comparison with results of mode analysis of the fine model.

공작기계 등과 같이 복잡한 대형 구조물의 구조해석에 있어서 결합부요소의 강성과 질량특성을 모델링하는 일반적 인 방법이 없는 실정이므로 어려움이많다. 본 연구에서는 공작기계에서 흔히 쓰이는 Slide-way contact joint 결 합부를 등가의 강성행렬 요소(Generalized stiffness matrix element)로 모델링하는 방법을 제안하였다.. 기존의 유 한용소 해석법 프로그램을 이용하여 결합부 유한요소 모델의 유연도계수(Flexibility influence coefficients)를 계산하고 Guyan의 정축약이론을 이용하여 등가의 강성행렬요소로 축약시키는 방법이다. 제안된 방법을 대형 평면연 삭기 구조해석에 적용하고, 그 결과를 강결합 모델의 결과 및 Yoshimura의 등가스프링결합부 모델을 사용한 경우의 결과와 비교하므로써 본 연구에서 제안한 결합부 모델링 방법의 유용성을 확인하였다.

This paper deals with the equivalent shear modulus of the egg-box core. There are three approaches to obtain the equivalent shear modulus of core: a finite element analysis, an analytical study, and an empirical method. In this study, an 3-point bending test is used to evaluate the equivalent shear modulus of the Egg-Box core. As a result of the present work, the equivalent shear modulus of egg-box core at room temperature can be obtained. And this result is compared with the result of finite element analysis.
