합리적인 기기의 활률론적 지진위험도 평가를 위해서는 모델의 동특성에 대한 보다 현실적인 정보가 제공되어야 한다. 이 연구에서는 심한 비선형 동적 거동을 보일 것으로 예상되는 철제 전기 캐비넷의 동특성 시험결과 및 분석 절차를 제시하였다. 특히, 이 연구에서는 가진 강도의 크기에 따른 동특성의 비선형 집중분석하고, 그 비선형성의 원인을 고찰하였다. 시험 결과 및 이 논문에 제시된 분석 절차를 이용하여 시험체의 동특성이 효과적으로 도출될 수 있으며, 대상 시험체는 가진 강도에 따라 심한 비선형 거동을 함을 입증하였다. 비선형성의 원인은 일반적인 재료 비선형이라기 보다는 각 부품들의 마찰력과 기하학적인 비선형성에 기인함을 발견하였다. 또한, 캐비넷 형식의 기긱에 대한 합리적인 내진안전성 평가를 위해서는 각 방향별로 서로 다른 감쇠값을 적용할 것을 추천하였다. 또한, 캐비넷 형식의 기기에 대한 합리적인 내진안전성 평가를 위해서는 각 방향별로 서로 다른 감쇠값을 적용할 것을 추천하였다.

The nonlinear behavior of a connection has an influence on the behavior (the $P-\Delta$ effect) and the stability of a steel unbraced frame when a semi-rigid connection is applied as a beam-to-column connection. Therefore, the effects of a connection's non-linear behavior on the behavior and stability of a steel unbraced frame were investigated using second-order inelastic analysis, after which the main influence factors and their behavioral tendencies were studied. The study results showed that the nonlinear behavior of a connection directly affects the stability of a steel unbraced frame, and that the main influence factors are the rotational stiffness of the connection and the location of a semi-rigid connection.

The modified arc-length algorithms for the automatic incremental solution of nonlinear finite element equations proposed by Riks are presented, which comprise the cylindrical arc-length method and the normal arc-length method. These methods are developed to trace the nonlinear path of large displacement problems such as a pre and post bucking/collapse response of general structures. These methods are applied to analyse the nonlinear behavior of arch and shell problems in parallel with the standard and modified Newton-Raphson method.

In the case of composite material, a variety of characteristics were expressed depending on the materials that were composed of. In this study, the materials showing non-linear shear behavior were investigated among FRP composite. Each specimen was designed and analyzed according to ASTM D4255 method: regulations on the 2-rail. The dependent variables included in this experiment were a variety of fiber, fiber volume ratio, fiber array direction, temperature, material homogeneity. For determination of characteristics based on the fiber array, fiber array direction of 0, 30, 45, and 60 degrees were selected for test specimen. Temperature of 25, 40, 60, and $80^{\circ}C$ were considered for investigation of FRP materials'shear behavior based on the external temperature. Nonlinear shear behavior was observed throughout the FRP composite material in this study. Also, using vinyl ester resins, high fiber volume ratio, and fiber array direction of 45 degree appeared to show the most prominent nonlinear shear behavior. As for the findings related to the temperature change, non-linear behavior was decreased as the external temperature increased. For factory manufactured product, non-linear behavior was relatively at parity in comparison to the behavior found in the hand lay-up FRP composite specimen.

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.

The actual hysteretic behavior of structural elements and systems is closer to smooth hysteretic behavior than piece-wise linear behavior. This paper presents a methodology for computing the constant-ductility inelastic response spectra for smooth hysteretic behaviors. The effect of the hysteretic smoothness on the inelastic response spectra for acceleration, displacement, and input energy is evaluated. The results indicate that increasing smoothness in the hysteretic behavior decreases the inelastic response spectra.

In this study, two-dimensional finite element method has been developed to simply consider the nonlinear load-settlement behavior of piled raft foundation subjected to vertical loads. The raft is modeled as the plate finite element based on Mindline's theory and the pile is modeled as the proposed simple pile model that is easy to consider the complex nonlinear load-settlement behavior between pile and soil. The developed numerical method has been compared with the settlement data of lab-scaled experiment and numerical solutions to verify that the developed numerical method shows satisfactory prediction for the nonlinear load-settlement of piled raft foundation.

It is necessary to predict the deformation and stresses on soils to establish the nonlinear stress-strain relationship of geomaterials at various strain levels. Especially, a need exists to establish the pre-failure nonlinear characteristic of cemented granular geomaterials used in road constructions. In this paper, therefore, conventional granular soils were mixed with various cementing materials, such as cement and fly ash from coal combustion by-products. Then, the normalized nonlinear behavior of cemented geomaterials was assessed using unconfined compression test. In addition, various constitutive models of soils were evaluated for estimating pre-failure non-linear behavior of cemented geomaterials from the test results.

성능에 기초한 내진설계에서는 구조물이 보유하고 있는 능력을 효과적으로 파악하기 위해서 비선형 정적 해석이 적용되고 있다. 그러나 비선형 정적해석은 고차모드에 대한 효과를 고려하지 못함으로써 고층구조물이나 비정형 구조물과 같은 경우에는 정확한 비선형 지진응답의 산정과 내진성능을 평가하는데 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 건축구조물의 선형 및 비선형 지진응답 평가를 위하여 응답 스펙트럼해석을 통하여 얻어지는 층전단력으로부터 층하중을 산정하는 유사동적해석법이 적용되었다. 제안된 방법을 비선형 정적 해석에 적용하여 구조물의 비선형 자동응답을 비선형 시간이력해석의 결과와 비교하였다. 기존의 층분포하중에 의한 비선형 지진응답과 비교하였으며, 제안된 방법에 의한 지진 응답이 구조물의 비선형 거동특성을 가장 정확하게 표현하였다. 그러므로 본 연구에서 제안된 방법을 사용하여 비선형 정적 해석을 수행한다면 비교적 명확한 건축물의 비선형 거동특성과 내진성능을 평가할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

암석 내에 포함된 불연속면으로 인하여 암석은 압축하중 하에서 복잡한 거동을 한다. 이러한 복잡한 거동은 변형률강화(strain hardening), 변형률연화(strain softening), 부피팽창(dilatancy)등의 비선형 거동을 포함하는데, 이들은 균열의 성장, 상호작용(interaction), 연합(coalescence) 등을 통하여 발생한다(Brace et al., 1972; Kranz, 1983). 이와 같은 암석의 비선형적 거동을 설명하기 위하여 여러 형태의 균열모형이 개발된 바 있다(Costin, 1985; Nemat-Nasser ＆ Horii, 1982; Wang & Kemeny, 1993; Jeon, 1998).
