과적차량의 통행에 의한 교량구조물의 손상도를 평가하는 방법의 개발이 매우 활발하다. 본 연구에서는 과거 15년동안 통행한 교통데이타를 분석하고, 이 데이타를 근거로 교량의 손상도를 분석한다. 차량의 분류는 4종으로 대표하여 차량하중을 분석하였으며 해석시에는 이를 대표하는 2종을 사용하였다. 3차원해석을 통하여 구한 영향면을 이용하여 부재력을 계산하고 이를 이용하여 등가응력범위를 구한다. 이 결과는 모형실험을 통하여 구한 피로결과와 비교하였다. 분석결과 설계하중을 초과하는 과적차량이 교량에 미치는 손상정도는 적은 통행빈도에도 불구하고 매우 큼을 알 수 있고, 이러한 실제교통량의 분석을 통한 교량의 손상평가방법은 과적차량에 의한 교량손상정도를 유용하게 평가할 수 있다.

The goal of this study is to develop an equivalent fatigue load model for prestressed concrete composite girder bridges in Korea. To meet this goal, the probabilistic characteristics of traffics which cause fatigue damage in bridges are properly modeled. An equivalent fatigue load inodel for prestressed concrete composite girder bridges with constant. amplitude and frequency is established. The model proposed in this paper is very simple to use and gives fairly good results.

The fixed ends beam is analyzed by the s d 0 f system with the rigid-plastic model. And the safety criteria of the fixed ends beam to the Impulsive loads are established with the peak-load ratio to the static collapse load and impulse ratio to the ideal impulse producing the critical displacement. It is shown that the impulse and the peak-load of the impulsive loads are the important factors for the damage of the structures. It is also shown that the damage curves with the peak-load and impulse ratio are useful method to estimate the damage of the structures due to the emphasis on the equivalent dynamic loads rather than the equivalent static loads in the process of deriving the curve.

A structural reliability analysis of fatigue truck model for fatigue failure of highway steel bridges was performed by applying the Miner's fatigue damage rule expressed as a function of various random variables affecting fatigue damage. Among the variables, the statistical parameters for equivalent moment, impact factor, and loadometer were obtained by analyzing recently measured domestic traffic data, whereas the parameters on fatigue strength, girder distribution factor, and headway factor of the measured data available in the literature were used. The effects of various fatigue truck models, fatigue life, ADTT, fatigue detail category, loadometer, and gross vehicle weight of fatigue truck on the reliability index of fatigue damage were analyzed. It is expected that the analytical results presented herein can be used as a basic background material in the calibration of both fatigue design truck and fatigue load factor of LRFD specification.

The safety criteria for the simple beam with a rigid-plastic model under the impulsive loadings are established with the peak-load ratio to the static collapse load and impulse ratio to the ideal impulse producing the plastic hinge at the mid-span. It is shown that the impulse and peak-load of the impulsive loadings are the important factors for the damage of the structures. It is also shown that the damage curves with the peak-load and impulse ratio may be useful method to estimate the damage of the structures due to the emphasis on the equivalent dynamic loads rather than the equivalent static loads in the process of deriving the curve.

A systematic procedure to evaluate fatigue damages and to predict remaining fatigue lives is introduced for a steel railway bridge. Fatigue damages are evaluated by using the currently available fatigue damage theory. Fatigue lives with the condition of fatigue crack initiation are estimated by the probabilistic approach based on the reliability theory as well as the simplified procedure. A equivalent deterministic procedure is also suggested to assess the remaining fatigue life under various traffic conditions. Numerical simulations are used to assess dynamic stress histories with correction factors. Loading models are obtained from the passenger volume data. Train coincidences are also considered. Based on the results, the fatigue life is found to be underestimated by without considering the coincidence of trains on the bridge. The simplified method proposed in this study are found to yield approximately the same results as the systematic procedure.

지진에 대한 건축물의 확률적 성능평가에 대해서는 지진하중에 대한 건축물의 손상확률 또는 파괴확률을 나타내는 지진취약도 함수를 작성하여 대상 건축물에 대한 지진위험도를 평가하는 방법을 이용하고 있으며 이에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지진하중과 구조물 재료특성의 불확실성을 고려하고 대상 건축물의 지진취약도 해석을 통하여 비내력벽의 유무에 따른 건축물의 지진거동 및 내진성능을 평가하였다. 비내력벽을 보편화된 모형화 방법인 등가의 대각 압축 스트럿으로 고려하여 비내력벽의 유무에 따른 저층 철근콘크리트 건축물을 모형화하였으며 지진하중의 강도는 유효최대지반가속도를 이용하여 각 건축물에 대하여 지진취약도를 작성하였다. 취약도해석 결과로 연약층을 가지고 있는 건축물의 경우는 손상확률이 골조만 있는 경우보다 크며 동일한 해석모델의 경우에도 해석방법에 따라서 취약도 곡선의 형태가 다름을 알 수 있었다.

The computer program for the accelerated life testing technique of a machine part under the service conditions is developed under the GUI environment so that the user can easily obtain the results by selecting the program module. Also, the theoretical backgrounds for the computer program and the procedures of the accelerated testing method are introduced by testing the specimens made of the stainless steel 316L under the high temperature and random loading. The reliability of the program is discussed by the experimental results of the fatigue life, age degradation and accelerated testing conditions.

The systematic method to construct equivalent static load from a given dynamic load is proposed in the present study. Previously reported works to construct equivalent static load were based on ad hoc methods. Due to improper selection of loading position, they may results in unreliable structural design. The present study proposes the employment of primary degrees of freedom for imposing the equivalent static loads. The degrees of freedom are selected by two-level condensation scheme with reliability and efficiency. In several numerical examples, the efficiency and reliability of the proposed scheme is verified by comparison displacement for equivalent static loading and dynamic loading at the critical time.

Structural loading on a wind turbine is due to cyclic loads acting on the blades under turbulence and periodic wind field. The structural loading generates fatigue damage and fatigue failure of the wind turbine. The individual pitch control(IPC) is an efficient control method for reducing structural loading. In this paper, we present an IPC design method using Decentralized LQR(DLQR) and Disturbance accommodating control(DAC). DLQR is used for regulating rotor speed and DAC is used for canceling out disturbances. The performance of the proposed IPC is compared with CPC, which was designed with a gain-scheduled PI controller. We confirm the effect of fatigue load reduction with the use of damage equivalent load(DEL).
