To obtain a more accurate response from larninated composite structures, the effect of transverse shear deformation, transverse normal strain/stress, and nonlinear variation of in-plane displacements vis-$\\grave{a}$-vis the thickness coordinate should be considered in the analysis. The improved higher-order theory was used to determine the critical buckling load and natural frequencies of laminated composite structures. Solutions of simply supported laminated composite plates and sandwiches were obtained in closed form using Navier's technique, with the results compared with calculated results using the first order and other higher-order theories. Numerical results were presented for fiber-reinforced laminates, which show the effects of ply orientation, number of layers, side-toithickness ratio, and aspects ratio.

The shield tunneling method has been increasingly employed to minimize environmental damages and civil complaints in the populated and developed area. A lining segment, which is a main structure of the shield tunnel, consists of joints. Conventional foreign and domestic design data have been commonly used for design practices without a specific verification of structural analysis models, design load, and the effect of soil characteristics on the performance of lining segment. In this study, the suitability of existing analytic models used for the design of shield tunnel lining segment has been evaluated through a comparison between analytical and numerical solutions. Based on the evaluation of their suitability performed in the study, a full-circumferential beam jointed spring model (1R-S0) is proposed for design practices by considering user's convenience, the applicability of field conditions and the accuracy of analysis result. By using the proposed model, the parameter analysis was performed to investigate the effects of joint stiffness, ground rigidity, joint distribution and the number of joints on the behavior of lining segment. Parameters considered in the investigation have been appeared to affect the behavior of lining segment. Among those parameters, joint stiffness has been appeared to have the most significant effect on the bending moment and displacement of lining segment.

The objective of current study is to develop an optimization technique for the seismic actively controlled building structures using active tendon devices by an efficient solution of LQR control gain. In order to solve the active control system, the Ricatti closed-loop algorithm has been applied, and the state vector has been formulated by the transfer matrix and solved by a numerical technique of the trapezoidal rule. The time-delay problem has been also considered by phase compensation. To optimize the performance index, the ratio of the weighted matrix is the design variable, allowable story drift limits of IBC 2000 and tendon forces have been applied as restraint conditions, and the optimum control program has been developed with the algorithm of the SUMT technique. In examples of the optimization problem of eight stories shear buildings, it is evaluated that the optimum controlled building is more suitable in the control of earthquake response than the uncontrolled system and can reduce the performance index to compare with the controlled system with a constant ratio of the weighted matrix.

Based on a bond-based peridynamics theory for dynamic crack propagation problems, this paper presents a design sensitivity analysis and optimization method. Peridynamics has a peculiar advantage over the existing continuum theory in the mathematical modelling of problems where discontinuities arise. For the design optimization of the crack propagation problems, a non-shape design sensitivity is derived using the adjoint variable method. The obtained adjoint sensitivity of displacement and strain energy turns out to be very accurate and efficient compared to the finite different sensitivity. The obtained design sensitivities are futher utilized to optimally control the position of bifurcation point in the design optimization of crack propagation in a plate under tension. A numerical experiment demonstrates that the optimal distribution of material density could delay the position of bifurcation.

Love wave and Rayleigh wave are the major elastic waves belonging to the category of the surface wave. Those waves are used to determine the ground stiffness profile using their dispersion characteristics. The fact that Love wave is not contaminated by P-wave makes Love wave superior to Rayleigh wave and other body waves. Therefore, the information that Love wave carries is more distinct and clearer than that of others. Based on theoretical research, the joint inversion analysis that uses the dispersion information of both Love and Rayleigh wave was proposed. Numerical analysis, theoretical model test, and field test were performed to verify the joint inversion analysis. Results from 2D, 3D finite element analysis were compared with those from the transfer matrix method in the numerical analysis. On the other hand, the difference of results from each inversion analysis was investigated in the theoretical model analysis. Finally, practical applicability of the joint inversion analysis was verified by performing field test. As a result, it is confirmed that considering dispersion information of each wave simultaneously prevents excessive divergence and improves accuracy.

The finite element and boundary element methods of underground analysis are both well established numerical techniques for determination of stress and displacement distributions at underground excavation. The finite element method presents antithetical advantages and limitations. Complex constitutive behaviour may be modelled, at the expense of numerical efficiency and, for infinite domain, inadequate representation of remote bounadry conditions. The inherent advantages of the boundary element method are the ease with which infinite domain problems may be analysed, and the efficiency of analysis typically associated with a boundary value solution procedure. Application of the method is limited by the requirements linear constitutive behaviour for the medium. A combined of the finite element and boundary element methods of underground analysis is shown to preserve the advantages of each procedure, and, eliminates their individual disadvantages. Procedures employed in this papers described combined FEBEM algorithm. Solutions of underground excavation verifying the performance of combined FEBEM code are compared with theoretical solution, boundary element solution and finite element solution.

파랑의 전파와 변형에 대한 연구에는 수심방향으로 적분한 2차원방정식인 완경사방정식과 Boussinesq 방정식을 기반으로 한 수치모형을 이용한 연구가 최근까지 가장 활발하게 진행되어 오고 있다. 그러나 실제 구조물의 설계에는 2차원 수치모형에서 고려할 수 없는 수심방향 유속에 기인한 정확도의 문제로 인해 구조물의 형상과 재원을 설계하기 위한 정교한 수치모형실험이 어려워 주로 수리모형실험에 의존해 왔다. 수리모형실험은 실제 현상을 가장 잘 재현해낼 수 있어 신뢰성이 매우 높지만 다양한 실험을 수행하기가 어렵고 많은 시간과 비용이 소요되는 단점이 있다. 이에 따라 최근 수심방향으로 완전한 운동방정식인 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 푸는 3차원 수치모형에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이론적으로 매우 우수한 모형이긴 하나 정확도 높은 결과를 얻기 위해서는 매우 조밀한 격자를 필요로 하기 때문에 아직까지 막대한 계산시간이 필요하다는 단점이 있으나 컴퓨터 기술이 급격한 속도로 발전하고 있어 Navier-Stokes 방정식 모형의 적용 가능성은 계속 높아지고 있다. 파랑변형을 다루는 수치모형실험을 수행할 때 외부조파를 사용할 경우 구조물이나 지형에 의해 반사되어 나온 파랑이 조파지점에 도달할 때 실험영역으로 재 반사되는 문제가 발생한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 내부조파기법의 개발에 대한 연구가 필수적이었으며, 자유수면변위를 변수로 사용하는 모형의 경우 그 연구가 매우 활발하게 진행되어 왔다. 한편, Navier-Stokes 방정식 모형의 경우 자유수면변위를 변수로 사용하는 2차원 모형에 비해 상대적으로 연구가 미흡하였다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 연직 2차원 Navier-Stokes 방정식 모형에 사용된 연속방정식에 질량 원천항을 추가하는 내부조파기법을 도입하여 3차원 수치모형에서 고립파를 내부조파하고, 급경사에서의 고립파의 처오름 및 처내림 현상을 수리모형 실험결과와 비교 및 분석하였다. 수치모형은 Navier-Stokes 방정식을 엇갈림 격자체계에서 계산하는 동수압 모형으로서, Two-step projection 기법을 사용하는 유한차분모형을 사용하였다. 본 수치모형은 난류의 해석을 위해서 상대적으로 큰 에디(eddy)만을 고려하는 SANS(spatially averaged Navier-Stokes) 방정식을 계산하는 LES(large-eddy-simulation) 기반의 수치모형으로, 난류 모델링을 위해 Smagorinsky LES 모형을 사용한다. 또한, 압력장의 계산을 위해 Bi-CGSTAB 기법을 이용하여 Poisson 방정식의 해를 구하였으며, 자유수면 추적을 위하여 2차 정확도의 VOF(volume-of-fluid) 기법을 사용하였다. 수치모형실험이 전체적으로 수리모형실험에서 관측한 파랑의 처오름 및 처내림 현상을 잘 재현하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 정량적인 비교를 통해 수치모형의 성능을 검증하였다.

The stiffness matrix of circularly curved frame elements including the warping effects is formulated by the solutions of vlasov's differential equations, and the procedure for the elastic static analysis of curved girder systems by the displacement method is presented. The validity of this method has been demonstrated by comparing the analysis results with other solutions. And if the tangential lines of the two frame element axes connected at any nodal point coincide, the transformation to the global coordinate system can be omitted when we analyze the structures consisting of circularly curved elements. The theory introduced in this thesis can be applied with sufficient accuracy to the structures built up with horizontally circular curved frame elements which have closed or open cross sections and are symmetric to the axis perpendicular to the plane of the curvature, such as prestressed concrete box girder bridges.

In this paper the analysis of laminate composite folded plates with arbitrary angle connection like box girder is studied by finite strip method Total stiffness of laminated plate is obtained by integration of the stiffness in each layer or lamina through laminate thickness and total stiffness in each layer or lamina through laminate thickness and total tiffness matrix is obtained by substitutionto equilibrium equation derived from the minimum total potential energy theorem. The assumed displacement functions for a finite strip method in plate or box girder analysis are combinations of one-way polynomial functions in the transverse direction and harmonic functions in the span-wise direction. Finite strip method with the merits of the simplification in modeling and the reduction of analytical time is accurate in the analysis of laminate composite folded plates shaped like box firders.
