In this study, we introduce a linear spectral method capable of simulating wave generation and transformation caused by a moving bottom in a 3-dimensional space. The governing equations are linear dynamic free-surface boundary conditions and linear kinematic free-surface boundary conditions, which are solved in Fourier space. Solved velocity potential and free-surface displacement should satisfy continuity equation and kinematic bottom boundary condition. For numerical analysis, a 4th order Runge-Kutta method was utilized to analyze the time integral. The results obtained in Fourier space can be converted into velocity potential and free-surface displacement in a real space using inverse Fourier transform. Regular waves generated by various types of moving bottoms were simulated with the linear spectral method. Additionally, obliquely generated regular waves using specified bottom movements were simulated. The results obtained from the spectral method were compared to analytical solutions, showing good agreement between the two.

In the present study, free vibration analysis of multi-delaminated beams is performed. In order to investigate the effects of mu1ti-delaminations on the dynamic characteristics of multi-delaminated beams, the general kinematic continuity conditions are derived from the assumption of constant curvature at the multi-delamination tip. Frequency equations of multi-delaminated beams are obtained by dividing the global multi-delaminated beam into beam segments and by imposing recurrence relation from the continuity conditions un each sub-beam. The comparisons between the results of numerical analysis obtained by finite element analysis and those of present analysis give good agreement with each other. It is shown that the effects of multi-delaminations on free vibration characteristics of laminated beams could be used to detect their sizes, types and locations from the results.

This paper deals with free vibrations of the Timoshenko beam supported by two elastomeric bearings at two far ends. The ordinary differential equation governing free vibrations of such beam is derived, in which both effects of rotatory inertia and shear deformation are included as the Timoshenko beam theory. Also, boundary conditions of the free end are derived based on the Timoshenko beam theory. The ordinary differential equation is solved by the numerical methods for calculating natural frequencies and mode shapes. Both effects of the rotatory inertia and shear deformation on natural frequencies are extensively discussed. Also, relationships between natural frequencies and slenderness ratio, foundation modulus and bearing length are presented. Typical mode shapes of bending moment and shear force as well as deflection are given in figures which show the positions of maximum amplitudes and nodal points.

This study established a displacement ductility ratio model for ductile design for the boundary element of shear walls. To determine the curvature distribution along the member length and displacement at the free end of the member, the distributions of strains and internal forces along the shear wall section depth were idealized based on the Bernoulli's principle, strain compatibility condition, and equilibrium condition of forces. The confinement effect at the boundary element, provided by transverse reinforcement, was calculated using the stress-strain relationship of confined concrete proposed by Razvi and Saatcioglu. The curvatures corresponding to the initial yielding moment and 80% of the ultimate state after the peak strength were then conversed into displacement values based on the concept of equivalent hinge length. The derived displacement ductility ratio model was simplified by the regression approach using the comprehensive analytical data obtained from the parametric study. The proposed model is in good agreement with test results, indicating that the mean and standard deviation of the ratios between predictions and experiments are 1.05 and 0.19, respectively. Overall, the proposed model is expected to be available for determining the transverse reinforcement ratio at the boundary element for a targeted displacement ductility ratio.

On the stability of the Beck's column with a tip mass, the influence of the characteristics of the springs at the fixed end of the column are studied. The equations of motion and boundary conditions of this system are established by using the Hamiton's principle. On the evaluation of the stability of the column, t he effect of the shear deformation and rotatory inertial is considered in calculation. For the maintenance of the stability of the column, it is proved that the constant of the translational spring at the fixed end must be very large while th magnitude of the constant of the rotational spring at the fixed end has no effect. When the constants of the springs at the fixed end are small, it is also proved that the influence of the moment of inertial of the tip mass on the stability of the column are decreased and for the translational spring the degree of the decrease is more and more. Therefore it is found that the characteristics of the springs at the fixed end are very effective elements for the stability of the column when the columns subjected to a compressive follower force are designed.

This paper deals with the elastica of deflected cantilever column with the constant volume. The columns are subjected to combined loads consisted of an axial compressive load and a couple moment at the free end. Differential equations governing the elastica of such column are derived, in which both the effects of taper type and shear deformation are included. Three kinds of taper types are considered: linear, parabolic and sinusoidal tapers. Differential equations are solved numerically to obtain the elastica of objective columns. The effects of various system parameters on the elastica are investigated extensively. Experimental studies were carried out in order to verify the theoretical results of non-linear behavior of the elasticas.

전 세계적으로 사회기반시설 및 신재생 에너지 생산을 위한 공간부족 문제를 해결하기 위하여 초대형 부유구조물에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 다양한 사용분야에 대한 안정성 확보를 위해 파랑하중에 의한 동적 응답과 부유체의 강성 대비 길이 효과로 인해 발생할 수 있는 특이 거동에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 초대형 부유구조물의 경우 중앙부에 비해 양끝 단에서 과도한 응답이 발생하며, 이를 해결하기 위해 입사파가 들어오는 초대형 부유구조물의 단부에 부착되는 다양한 감요장치(anti-motion device)가 제안되어지고 있다. 초대형 부유구조물에 감요장치가 적용될 경우 입사파에 의한 동적 파압을 감소시켜 구조물의 전반적인 응답을 줄여줄 수는 있지만 감요장치의 질량이 클 경우 오히려 끝단의 응답을 증폭시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 양단 자유 경계조건의 탄성지지된 보를 이용하여 초대형 부유구조물의 길이와 끝단에 부착된 감요장치의 질량으로 인한 영향을 분석하였다.

The numerical simulation using the Lattice Boltzmann Method in the field of computational fluid dynamics becomes wider in the engineering applications because of its simplicity of update rules compared to the conventional Navier-Stokes solvers. Here, a two-dimensional D2Q9 LB model is numerically tested with a few new computational treatment on the free surface. The single relaxation time is applied under the gravitational field where applied only in the higher density fluid because of its big density difference. At the free surface, the reconstruction techniques in combination with boundary conditions is adopted in order to get some distribution function coming into the fluid site from the air one, and surface tension, early stable test for the gravitional field is considered in it. With the implementation of the gravitational profile, conserving the overall mass and grid dependency are observed during the calculations and freesurface advance track is well captured with an experiment.

In this study, the governing equations of motion for multi-cracked nonuniform nanobeam based on nonlocal elasticity theory and embedded in an elastic medium were derived. DTM(differential transformation method) was applied to vibration analysis of multi-cracked nonuniform nanobeam based on nonlocal elasticity theory and embedded in an elastic medium. The non-dimensional natural frequencies of this nanobeam were obtained for eoe, crack stiffness and elastic medium stiffness with various boundary conditions. The results obtained by this method was compared with previous works and showed the close agreement between two methods. The important conclusions obtained by this study are as follows : 1. As the length of nanobeam is shorter, the effect of scale coefficient is greater. 2. The locations of crack change non-dimensional natural frequency, In the case of fixed-fixed ends, the non-dimensional natural frequency is the biggest in the first crack location of 0.6L of nanobeam length, and the smallest in both ends. In the case of fixed-free ends, the closer the location of first crack go tho the free end, the bigger the non-dimensional natural frequency. 3. As the stiffness of crack is greater, the non-dimensional natural frequency is smaller, And the effect of crack stiffness is similar on both fixed-free ends and fixed-fixed ends. 4. The bigger the stiffness of elastic medium, the greater the non - dimensional natural frequency.
