For the safe design of steel-concrete composite structure, usable yield strength of steels are limited in most of design standard. However, this limitation sometimes cause the uneconomical design for some kind of members such as slender columns which was affected by elastic buckling load. For the economical design for slender columns, parametric study of RCFT (Rectangular CFT) with high-strength steel is conducted, especially investigating the limitation of yield strength of high-strength steels. Using ABAQUS, finite element analysis program, the finite element model was constructed and calibrated with experimental study for RCFT with high strength steel which have yield strength up to 680MPa. Investigated design parameters are yield strength of steel, compressive strength of concrete, steel thickness and slenderness ratio. The effect of design parameters were compared with design standard, KBC-09. From the parametric study with 54 models and previous test specimens, RCFT can be safely design with higher yield strength of steels than currently limited by KBC for large range of slenderness ratio.

In this paper, the dynamic stiffness of scaled boundary finite element method(SBFEM) was analytically derived to represent the non-homogeneous space. The non-homogeneous parameters were introduced as an expotential value of power function which denoted the non-homogeneous properties of analysis domain. The dynamic stiffness of analysis domain was asymptotically expanded in frequency domain, and the coefficients of polynomial series were determined to satify the radiational condition. To verify the derived dynamic stiffness of domain, the numerical analysis of the typical problems which have the analytical solution were performed as various non-homogeneous parameters. As results, the derived dynamic stiffness adequatlly represent the features of the non-homogeneous space.

The flexural behavior of composite HSB600 and HSB800 I-girders under a positive moment was investigated using the material non-linear moment-curvature analysis method. Three representative composite sections with different ductility properties were selected as the baseline sections in this study. Using these baseline sections, the moment-curvature program was verified by comparing the flexural strength and the moment-curvature curve obtained from the program with those obtained using the non-linear FE analysis of ABAQUS. In the FE analysis, the composite girders were modeled three-dimensionally with flanges, the web, and the concrete slab as thin shell elements, and initial imperfections and residual stresses were imposed on the FE model. In the moment-curvature and FE analyses, the 28-day compressive strength of the concrete slab was assumed to be 30-50 MPa, and the HSB600 and HSB800 steels were modeled as elasto-plastic strain-hardening materials, with the concrete as the CEB-FIP model. The effects of the ductility ratio of the composite girder, the type of steel, the compressive strength of the concrete deck, and the location of the plastic neutral axis on the flexural characteristics were analyzed.

Ultimate axial strength of longitudinally stiffened cylindrical steel shells for wind turbine tower was investigated by applying the geometrically and materially nonlinear finite element method. The effects of radius to thickness ratio of shell, shape and amplitude of initial imperfections, area ratio between effective shell and stiffener, and stiffener spacing on the ultimate axial strength of cylindrical shells were analyzed. The ultimate axial strengths of stiffened cylindrical shells by FEA were compared with design buckling strengths specified in DNV-RP-C202. The shell buckling modes obtained from a linear elastic bifurcation FE analysis as well as the weld depression during fabrication specified in Eurocode 3 were introduced in the nonlinear FE analysis as initial geometric imperfections. The radius to thickness ratio of cylindrical shell models was selected to be in the range of 50 to 200. The longitudinal stiffeners were designed according to DNV-RP-C202 to prevent the lateral torsional buckling and local buckling of stiffeners.

Data which gathered and used in the field of fatigue and fracture mechanics have a lot of uncertainties. In this case, those uncertainties will make scatter band in evaluation of fatigue life and fracture toughness. Thus, the probabilistic analysis of these data will be needed. For determining the fatigue life in mixed mode, using crack direction law and fatigue crack growth law, the problem is studied as a constrained life minimization. Stress intensity factor(SIF) is computed by approximate solution table(Ewalds/Wanhill 1984) and 0th order PFEM. The variance of fatigue life and SIF are computed by differentiation of tabulated approximate solution and 1st order PFEM. And these are used for criterion of design values, principal parameter determination and modelling. The problem of center cracked plate is solved for checking the PFEM model which is influenced by various parameters like as initial crack length, final crack length, two fatigue parameters in Paris Equation and applied stress.

암석의 인장강도 실험법의 하나로써 새롭게 개발된 Hoop Test에 대한 이론적 뒷받침을 하고자 유한요소법을 사용하여 응력분포를 해석하였다. 간단하며 사용하기 편리한 실험장치이지만 시료가공시 생길 수 있는 내부공의 지름에 대한 오차, 재부공벽면과 하중장치외벽과의 마찰 등이 있어 이들로부터 발생할 오차를 평가해 보았다. 또한 시료의 안지름과 바깥지름의 비율이 응력의 크기에 끼치는 영향을 조사하였다. 응력해석결과, 일반적인 시료준바에 필요한 주의만 기울이면 실험치에 별다른 영향을 주지않는 것으로 제안되었고 이는 그동안의 실험결과의 신뢰성을 이론적으로 보충해 주었다.

This study targets SFRC hollow members with small depth under shear force and bending. To evaluate the effect of web width on shear strength of SFRC members, experiment and finite element analysis were conducted and compared with existing equations. The web width was planned to be 1/2 times and 2/3 times, and the shear span ratio was planned to be 1.5 times. In the shear test results, the maximum shear strength increased by 10.3 to 28.0% with the web width increased by 33%. When the overall depth of specimens was increased by 1.5 times, the shear strength of the specimen with a web width of 100mm was increased by 29.2%. On the other hand, specimen with the 150mm only increased by 11.3%. These results indicate that the smaller the web width, the greater the shear strength increase with the increase of depth. Also, the smaller the web width, the greater the contribution of steel fiber. It has been shown that the KCI code evaluates the shear strength of experiments as very safe side, and that the proposed formula of Shin et al. predicts the experimental strength relatively well. As the web width increases by 2, 3, and 6 times, the mean shear strength by FEA appears to be 1.18, 1.80, and 2.19 times respectively. This indicates that the shear strength does not increase in proportion to the increase in web width.

The main objective of this paper is to analyze the rectangular stiffened plates with two opposite ends elastically restrained and the others simply supported subjected to in-plane bending by Finite Element Method. Another objective is to develope Classical Method analyzing the unstiffened rectangular plates with the above boundary conditions. In order to validate finite element and classical methods, the buckling strengths of the rectangular plates with four simply supported ends, and with two simply supported and the others fixed ends by finite element method and classical method are compared with those of references. In finite element method, elastically restrained ends can be obtained as considering torsional and warping rigidities of end stiffeners. The buckling strengths of the rectangular plates with elastically restrained ends by finite element and classical methods are calculated and compared with each other. In case of stiffened plates, to validate finite element method, the buckling strengths of the rectangular stiffened plates with four simply supported ends, and with two simply supported and the others fixed ends are also compared with those of references. The buckling strengths of the rectangular stiffened plates with elastically restrained ends by finite element method are calculated as solving eigenvalue problems which are obtained as assembling rectangular plate elements and beam elements considered torsional and warping rigidities. The buckling strengths of rectangular stiffened plates according to various positions of rectangular intermediate stiffener, J and I/sub w/ of end stiffeners are also obtained, which are compared to determine the efficient position of intermediate stiffener.
