In the present study, we consider modified 5-node equivalent solid element which has smallest degree of freedom among 2-dimensional solid elements accounting bending deformation as well as extensional and shear deformations, We shall investigate static and dynamic characteristics of this element, which is very effective in thin beam, thick beam, large displacement problems, beam of variable thickness, and asymmetrically stepped beam, etc., as well as relatively simple problems of beam. The degree of freedom of this element is 10, which is smaller than 18 of 9-node element, 16 of 8-node elemtns, 12 of modified 6-node element and Q6 element. Therefore, this element is expected to broaden the effective range of application of the solid elements in the bending problems further.

This paper presents a dynamic crack propagation algorithm based on the Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method. The derivative approximation for the MLS difference method is derived by Taylor expansion and moving least squares procedure. The method can analyze dynamic crack problems using only node model, which is completely free from the constraint of grid or mesh structure. The dynamic equilibrium equation is integrated by the Newmark method. When a crack propagates, the MLS difference method does not need the reconstruction of mode model at every time step, instead, partial revision of nodal arrangement near the new crack tip is carried out. A crack is modeled by the visibility criterion and dynamic energy release rate is evaluated to decide the onset of crack growth together with the corresponding growth angle. Mode I and mixed mode crack propagation problems are numerically simulated and the accuracy and stability of the proposed algorithm are successfully verified through the comparison with the analytical solutions and the Element-Free Galerkin method results.

Low-velocity impact on composite sandwich panel has been investigated. Contact force is computed from a proposed modified Hertzian contact law. The Hertzian contact law is constructed by adjusting numerical value of the exponent and reducing the through-the- thickness elastic constant of honeycomb core. The equivalent transverse elastic constant is calculated from the rule of mixture. Nonlinear equation to calculate the contact force is solved by the Newton-Raphson method and time integration is done by the Newmark-beta method. A finite element program for the low-velocity impact analysis is coded by implementing these techniques and an 18-node assumed strain solid element. Behaviors of composite sandwich panels subjected to low-velocity impact are analyzed for various cases with different geometry and lay-ups. It has been found that the present code with the proposed contact law can predict measured contact forces and contact times for most cases within reasonable error bounds.

개수로 흐름 해석을 위해 수치모형을 적용할 때 반드시 거쳐야 하는 과정이 격자망을 구성하는 일이다. 불규칙한 형상의 자연수로를 모의할 때 격자망 생성은 쉬운 일이 아니며, 따라서 가시적으로 격자망 생성을 돕고, 격자망의 수정도 용이한 도구가 요구된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수심적분된 흐름방정식을 지배방정식으로 하여 개수로 흐름 해석을 용이하게 하고자 그래픽 사용자 인터페이스(GUI)를 개발하였으며, 이를 소개하고자 한다. 격자망은 기본적으로 사각형과 삼각형 요소로 구성될 수 있으며, 유한차분모형 등에서는 정형사각형 격자망을, 유한요소모형에서는 비정형 사각형 및 삼각형 격자망 또는 혼합망을 생성시킬 수 있다. 이산점(scatter points)이나 절점(node points)을 생성하거나 기존의 자료를 불러들여 삼각망 또는 사각망을 형성시킬 수 있으며, 연속선(polylines)을 작성하여 형성된 폐다각형(polygones)을 이용하여 정규 또는 비정규의 삼각망 또는 사각망을 형성시킬 수 있다. 또한 두 점사이를 선형 또는 반원 형태로 편향 정도(biased value)를 설정하여 원하는 개수만큼 나눌 수 있도록 하여, 보다 효율적인 격자형성이 가능토록 하였다. 기존 상용 프로그램에서 작성된 격자를 불러들여 활용 가능하며, 백그라운드 이미지로 지형도나 위성사진을 띄어놓고 이미지 상에서 격자를 형성할 수도 있다. 기본적으로 마우스를 이용하여 화면의 이동, 확대 및 축소와 점, 선, 요소의 생성 및 선택이 가능하다. 본 프로그램은 Qt와 modern OpenGL을 바탕으로 제작되었으며, 마이크로소프트사의 windows 뿐만 아니라 Mac OS, Linux 버전의 설치 파일 작성이 가능하다.
