This study investigates a geometrical nonlinear dynamic behaviors of laminated skew plates made of advanced composite materials (ACM). Based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT), the Newmark method and Newton-Raphson iteration are used for the nonlinear dynamic solution. The effects of cutout sizes, skew angles and lay up sequences on the nonlinear dynamic response for various parameters are studied using a nonlinear dynamic finite element program developed for this study. The several numerical results were in good agreement with those reported by other investigators for square composite plates with or without central cutouts, and the new results reported in this paper show the significant interactions between the cutout, skew angles and layup sequence in the laminate. Key observation points are discussed and a brief design guideline of skew laminates is given.

본 연구에서는 추계론적 동적시스템의 응답거동을 예측할 수 있는 반해석적 절차를 개발하였으며, 이를 이용하여 구분적선형시스템의 동적거동특성을 확률적 영역에서 분석하였다. 반 해석적 절차는 시스템의 추계론적 미분방정식에 상응하는 Fokker-Planck 방정식을 path-integral solotion을 이용하여 풂으로써 구할 수 있다. 결합확률밀도함수의 시간에 따른 전개과정을 통하여 시스템의 동적 응답거동 특성의 예측과 분석을 하고 시스템의 거동에 미치는 외부노이즈의 영향 또한 조사하였다. 반 해석적 방법은 위상면 상에서 결합확률밀도 함수를 통하여 응답거동의 예측은 물론 거동특성에 대하여 적절한 정보를 제공하는 것을 밝혔다. 혼돈거동의 특성은 외부노이즈가 존재하는 상황에서도 시스템의 응답 안에 잔재하는 것을 밝혔다.

Kim et al.(I999) presented a non-linear finite element formulation of spatial ocean cables using multiple noded cable elements. The initial equilibrium state of ocean cables subjected to self-weights, support motions, and current forces was determined using the load incremental method and free vibration analysis were performed considering added mass, In this paper, the methods to generate regular and irregular waves and calculate wave forces due to these waves are discussed and challenging example problems are presented in order to investigate dynamic non-linear behaviors of ocean cables subjected to wave loadings.

Nonlinear aeroelastic analyses of composite wing with flap are performed considering free-play and dynamic stiffness of actuator. Doublet-Hybrid method is used for the calculation of subsonic unsteady aerodynamic forces. Free-play is modeled as a bilinear spring and is linearized by using the describing function method. Dynamic stiffness is obtained from governing equation of gear system and the aeroelastic analyses were performed according to ply-angle of laminate and material. The linear and nonlinear flutter analysis results show that the flutter characteristics are significantly dependent on the free-play and dynamic stiffness. from the nonlinear flutter analysis, various types of limit cycle oscillations are observed in a range of air speeds below or above the linear divergent flutter boundary.

The response of single story buildings and other case studies were investigated to observe trends and develop a better understanding of the impact of some design parameters on the seismic response of Concentrically Braced Frames (CBF). While many parameters are known to influence the behavior of braced frames, the focus of this study was mostly on quantifying energy dissipation in compression and its effectiveness on seismic performance. Based on dynamic analyses of single story braced frame and case studies, a bracing member designed with bigger R and larger KL/r was found to result in lower normalized cumulative energy ratio in both cases.

The numerical analysis on tile behaviour of mooring system in the offshore guyed tower is presented. The governing equilibrium equations are derived by the principle of virtual work. The drag and inertia effects of fluid are included in a Morrison type equation. The finite element method is used in the computation. Geometric nonlinearities for the analysis of the mooring line are considered in which both modified Newton-Raphson method and Newmark-$\beta$ method are employed. Numerical experiments show the validity and the capability of the developed mathematical formulation.

Constitutive modeling of constituent materials is very important for reinforced concrete (RC) frames. Cyclic constitutive behavior of unconfined concrete, confined concrete and reinforcing steel should be well defined in fiber-based discretization of RC sections. This study performs nonlinear dynamic analyses of RC frame structures to investigate the sensitivity of seismic behavior of such frames to different constitutive models of constituent materials. The study specifically attempts to examine confinement effects in concrete modeling and degrading effects in steel modeling, which substantially affects the monotonic, cyclic and seismic responses of RC members and frames. Based on the system level analysis, it is shown that the response of non-ductile frames is less sensitive to confined concrete models while the modeling of reinforcing steel is quite influential to the inelastic response of both non-ductile and ductile frames.

0.93m/sec의 평균속도는 변위제어 삼점휨 실험된 콘크리트 보의 하중-변위 측정결과를 선형탄성파괴역학모델과 가상균열모델에 기초한 유한요소법으로 분석하였다. 두 모델 모두 실험결과와 잘 일치하며, 균열성장길이가 약 60∼70㎜가 될 때까지 안전된 균열성장을 보이다 불안정한 균열성장에 의해 파손되었다. 선형탄성파괴역학모델에 의한 수치해석 결과 에너지해방률은 균열성장길이에 비례해서 증가하였으며, 최대값(202N/m)에 이르게 되면 일정한 값을 유지하였다. 가상균열모델에 기초한 수치해석결과 이 연구에 사용된 하중속도와 시험편의 크기에 대해 70㎜의 완전한 파괴진행대가 평성되었으며, 이는 기존의 정적 실험결과에 대한 수치해석 결과보다 상당히 작은 값이었다.

There are basically two methods for the seismic design of underground structures ; analytical or pseudo-static, and dynamical method. In pseudo-static analysis approach, the ground deformations are imposed as a static load and soil-structure interaction does not include dynamic or wave propagation effects. However the behavior of soil structure interaction is nonlinear, it needs to consider nonlinear soil-structure interaction effects. In this study simplified seismic analysis method to consider soil-structure interaction by iterative procedure is proposed and the results are compared and analyzed by a finite difference computer program.

When shock acceleration is applied to a mechanical system, it may cause malfunctioning and damage to the system. Hence, to prevent these problems when developing a gimbal structure system for observation reconnaissance, the MIL-STD-810G shock standard must be satisfied as a design specification. Rubber vibration isolators are generally assembled on the base of the system in order to reduce the shock transferred from the aircraft. It is difficult to analyze the transient behavior of the system accurately, because rubber has a nonlinear load-deformation curve. To treat the nonlinear characteristic of the rubber, bilinear approximation was introduced. Using this assumption, transient responses of the system under base shock acceleration were calculated by the finite element method. In addition, experiments with a true prototype were performed using the same conditions as the analytical model. Compared with experimental data, the proposed numerical method is useful for the transient analysis of gimbal structure systems, including rubber vibration isolators with nonlinear stiffness and damping.
