2진 로봇 머니퓰레이터는 기하학적 형상이 가변트러스 구조로 되어 있으며 조인트의 구동원으로 사용되는 엑츄에이터는 2가지의 변위, 즉 최대 및 최소 변위만으로 동작한다. 따라서 작업영역은 연속적으로 주어지는 일반 로봇 머니퓰레이터와는 달리 유한 개의 위치 벡터의 집합 형태로 나타난다. 기존의 역기구학적 해석방법을 적용하기 어려운 2진 로봇 머니퓰레이터의 불연속적인 특성에 대해 새로운 작업영역과 역기구학 문제를 정의하였다. 유전 알고리즘을 사용하여 새로이 정의된 문제의 역기구학적 해석을 수행하였으며 유전 알고리즘이 2진 로봇 머니퓰레이터의 역기구학적 해석에 있어서 효과적이고 강건한 방법임을 보여주었다.

In order to investigate the tendency of general displacements and behaviors with respect to each construction process as well as the applicability of numerical analysis schemes, this research has focused on not only analyzing a variety of field observations made in a NATM tunnel, such as displacement of top and side, stress of shotcrete and axial strength of rock bolt, but also carrying out a series of numerical analyses. It was established from the investigation that the 2-dimensional continuum numerical analysis was the one which could more accurately predict displacement of crown and side in the area of one step excavation (patten, P1-P3), while the 2-dimensional discontinuum analysis was the most suitable scheme to study that of two step excavation (patten, P4-P6). In addition, the 2-dimensional continuum analysis enabled to appropriately predict the axial strength of rock bolt and stress of shotcrete in all the area of the tunnel. Finally, it has been possible to conclude from the study that the 3-dimensional continuum analysis should be applied to inspect the behavior and tendency with respect to each stage of the construction as well as in the case of joints, such as large turnouts where relaxation loads in both of horizontal and vertical direction are piled up.

The evaluation of displacement ductility is performed by direct method through tracking the inelastic hysteretic behavior of RC bridge columns subject to cyclic loading using a flexibility-based fiber element mode. To reasonably track the inelastic behavior until the RC bridge column reaches its ultimate state, the average stress-average strain relations and joint elements, which agree well with experiments, are modified and applied considering the tension stiffening behavior and discontinuous displacement between the column and its base. In addition the evaluation of displacement ductility is performed by a direct method easily applicable to numerical analysis. Locations for the integration points, values for the post-crushing concrete strength and low-cycle fatigue failure of longitudinal reinforcement that affect the calculation of yielding and ultimate displacements are proposed for the application to flexibility-based fiber element model. Since less than 10% of error occurs during the displacement ductility analysis, the yielding and ultimate displacements evaluated by the applied analysis method and model appear to be valid.

Irregularity in structural shape is a ubiquitous phenomenon. Structural hazards evoked from irregularity need to be checked against extreme lateral loadings. Structures containing four distinct types of irregularities in terms of continuity and discontinuity in upper half-length and all story levels along with O-shape are investigated. The structures were analyzed numerically and different seismic responses such as displacements, bending moment, axial forces, torsions, story drift, etc. were scrutinized. The seismic and wind load analysis was conducted for ACI 318-11 conditions. Results show that buildings having discontinuous beams on the upper half exhibit better resilience. It is also concluded that O-shaped building structures provide better resistance to overturning, making this shape relatively safe.

This paper describes the general formulation for the in-plane flexural free vibration analysis of two layered structure by the transfer influence coefficient method. The structure is regared as a distributed mass system with lumped mass and inertia moments, massless linear and rotational springs, and joints elements of releases and rolls at which the displacements are discontinuous in each layer. The results of the simple numerical examples on a personal computer demonstrate the validity of the present method, that is, the numerical high accuracy, the high speed, the flexibility for programming of the present algorithm, compared with the transfer matrix method.

A mixed type finite element method is applied to the nonuniform shear warping beam theory which is very useful for the structural analysis of thin-walled sectional beams considering the shear deformation. As known generally, it is shown that the mixed type finite element method, compared with the displacement type one, can give more balanced accuracy of results in calculating the stresses and displacements of the structure. In this paper, one typical example, the flexural-torsional problem of a discontinuously variable sectional beam under coupled end torsional moments, is selected and analyzed to validate the usefulness of the developed beam element.

The finite element alternating method is extended further for general three dimensional cracks in an isotropic body subjected to the mode I loading. The required analytical solution for a dime dimensional crack in an infinite isotropic body is obtained by solving the integral equations. In order to remove the high singularity in integration, the technique suggested by Keat et al. was used. With the proposed method several example problems are solved in order to check the accuracy and efficiency of the method.

An integral equation representation of cracks was presented, which differs from well-known "dislocation layer" representation. In this new representation, an integral equation representation of cracks was developed and coupled to the direct boundary-element method for treatment of cracks in plane finite bodies. The method was developed for in-plane (modes I and II) loadings only. In this paper, the method is formulated and applied to mode III problems involving smooth or kinked cracks in finite region. The results are compared to exact solutions where available and the method is shown to be very accurate despite of its simplicity.implicity.

This paper presents an analytical prediction of the elastic behavior of discontinuous displacement in reinforced concrete column-footing joint under earthquake. Material nonlinearity is taken into account by comprising tensile, compressive and shear models of cracked concrete and a model of reinforcing steel. The smeared crack approach is incorporated. In boundary plane at which each member with different thickness is connected, local discontinuous deformation due to the abrupt change in their stiffness can be taken into account by introducing interface element. The proposed numerical method for hysteretic behavior of discontinuous displacement in reinforced concrete column-footing joint will be verified by comparison with reliable experimental results.
