In the current research, an algorithm of performance-based seismic retrofit design of reinforced concrete columns using FRP jacket has been proposed. For exact prediction of the nonlinear flexural analysis or FRP composite RC members, multiaxial constitutive laws of concrete and composite materials have been presented. For seismic retrofit design, an algorithm of direct displacement-based design method (DDM) proposed by Chopra and Goel (2001) has been newly applied to determine the design thickness of FRP jacket in seismic retrofit of reinforced concrete columns. To compare with the displacement coefficient method (DCM), the DDM gives an accurate prediction of the target displacement in highly nonlinear region, since the DCM uses the elastic stiffness before reaching the yield load as the effective stiffness but the DDM uses the secant stiffness.

In this paper, the critical strains for pavement design were calculated from both Layered Elastic Program (LEP) and Finite Element Method (FEM) and the case studies which give similar critical responses were compared. Although FEM has been realized as a superior model, LEP is more favorable to pavement design due to its simplicity and thus, the technique to calculate the correct critical responses using LEP is significant. This study showed that KENLAYER can possibly estimate the critical responses close to ones obtained from TTIPAVE, which considers nonlinear cross-anisotropic behavior of unbound base materials, by adjusting the stress point locations.

본 논문에서는 비선형구조물의 위상최적화를 위하여 개발된 요소 연결 매개법 (Element Connectivity Parameterization Method)을 이용하여 기하비선형 구조물의 고유진동수(Eigenfrequency)를 최적화하는 연구를 소개한다. 기존의 밀도를 기반으로 한 위상최적화기법은 비선형 구조물의 위상최적화를 수행할 때 약한 탄성계수를 가지는 요소가 대변형을 일으켜 전체 강성행렬(Tangent Stiffness Matrix)이 양정정성(Positive definiteness)를 잃어버리는 문제점이 있어서 위상최적화를 수행하기 어렵다. 이 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 최근에 요소 연결 매개법(Element Connectivity Parameterization Method)이 개발되었다. 이 요소 연결 매개법은 요소의 강성을 설계하는 것이 아니라 요소의 연결성을 설계하는 기법으로 이를 이용하여 비선형 구조물의 위상최적화를 효과적으로 수행할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 요소 연결 매개법을 동적인 문제에 적용하기 위한 연구를 수행하며 이를 이용하여 비선형 구조물의 고유진동수를 최적화 하는 위상최적화 문제에 적용하였다. 비선형 수치 예제를 통하여 기하 비선형 구조물의 고유진동수를 최대화를 통하여 기하 비선형 구조물의 강성최대화 문제와 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Practical stability design method of main members of cable-stayed bridges is proposed and discussed through a design example. For this purpose, initial tensions of stay cables and axial forces of main members are firstly determined using initial shaping analysis of bridges under dead loads. And then the effective buckling length using system elastic/inelastic buckling analysis and bending moments considering $P-{\delta}-{\Delta}$ effect by second-order elastic analysis are calculated for main girder and pylon members subjected to both axial forces and moments, respectively. Particularly, three load combinations of dead and live loads, in which maximum load effects due to live loads are obtained, are taken into account and effects of live loads on effective buckling lengths are investigated.

에너지 소산장치가 설치된 건무의 비선형 시간이력해석은 복잡하고 많은 시간이 소모된다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 정적해석법인 능력 스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 주어긴 거동 한계를 만족할 수 있는 감쇠기의 양을 산정하는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 먼저 능력스펙트럼법을 이용하여 건물의 비선형 정적응답을 구하고 건물의 응답과 목표변위의 차이를 이용하여 유효감쇠비를 구하고 이러한 유효 감쇠비를 이용하여 필용한 점성 감쇠기의 양을 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 단자 유도계에서 건물의 주기, 요구되는 탄성강도에 대한 항복강도의 비, 항복 후 강성비 등을 변수로 하여 연구를 수행하였다. 제안된 방법에 따라 설계된 점성 감쇠기를 설치한 예제 구조물의 시간이력 해석에 의한 최대 응답은 설계의 초기단계에서 사용한 목표변위와 잘 일치하였다.

According to the capacity design concept underlying current steel seimsic provisions, the braces in concentrically braced frames should dissipate seismic energy through cyclic tension yielding and compression buckling. On the other hand, the beams and the columns in the braced bay should remain elastic for gravity load actions and additional column axial forces resulting from the brace buckling and yielding. However, due to the difficulty in accumulating the yielding and buckling-induced column forces from different stories, empirical and often conservative approaches have been used in design practice. Recently a totally different approach was proposed by Cho, Lee, and Kim (2011) for the prediction of column axial forces in inverted V-braced frames by explicitly considering brace buckling. The idea proposed in their study is extended to X-braced seismic frames which have structural member configurations and load transfer mechanism different from those of inverted V-braced frames. Especially, a more efficient rule is proposed in combining multi-mode effects on the column axial forces by using the modal-mass based weighting factor. The four methods proposed in this study are evaluated based on extensive inelastic dynamic analysis results.

The aim of this study is to investigate the inelastic buckling behavior of the beams under moment gradient using a line-type finite element method. The method is incorporated the non-uniform yielding of the cross-section caused by the presence of residual stress and accepted model of residual stress so called 'simplified' and 'polynomial' pattern is adopted in this study. The inelastic lateral-torsional buckling results obtained in this study is compared with the buckling results obtained from the design method based on the allowable stress method given in Korean Steel Designers Manual (KSDM 1995). This study have found that the design method in KSDM (1995) is conservative without and with intermediate bracing applied at the mid span of the beam, and there is some scope for improving the provisions of KSDM (1995)

Site soil condition affects significantly on the seismic response of a structure and is a critical factor for the performance based seismic design of a structure. In this paper, the effects of nonlinear soil properties on the elastic response spectra of a structure including the nonlinearity of a soil due to the earthquake excitation is investigated using one step finite element approach for the entire soil structure system and approximate linear iterative procedure to simulate the nonlinear soil behavior with the Ramberg-Osgood soil model. Studies were carried out for a linear SDOF system of a variable period with and without a pile group for the 1940 CI Centro earthquake recorded on ground rather than rock. The study results showed clearly that the effect of the nonlinear behavior of soft soil is very important on the elastic seismic response of a structure suggesting the necessity of the performance based seismic design.

Based on the study conducted by Kim et al. (205a, b), an improved stability design method for evaluating the effective buckling lengths of beam-column members is proposed herein, using system elastic/inelastic buckling analysis and second-order elastic analysis. For this purpose, the stress-strain relationship of a column is inversely formulated from the reference load-carrying capacity proposed in design codes, so as to derive the tangent modulus of a column as a function of the slenderness ratio. The tangent stiffness matrix of a beam-column element is formulated using the so-called "stability functions," and elastic/inelastic buckling analysis Effective buckling lengths are then evaluated by extending the basic concept of a single simply-supported column to the individual members as one component of a whole frame structure. Through numerical examples of several structural systems and loading conditions, the possibilities of enhancement in stability design for frame structures are addressed by comparing their numerical results obtained when the present design method is used with those obtained when conventional stability design methods are used.
