  • 이 논문에서는 경계반력법을 이용한 비선형 지반-구조물 상호작용 해석을 위해 LS-DYNA나 MIDAS/Civil 등의 유한요소해석 프로그램과 연계하는 방법을 제시하였다. 경계반력법 적용시 유한요소프로그램에서 구조물과 지반은 선형 또는 비선형 유한요소를 이용하여 모델링하였다. 유한요소의 해석모델 외부의 무한영역으로 전달되는 탄성파를 최대한 흡수하기위해 유한요소 모델의 외측에 LS-DYNA의 경우에는 PML(Perfectly Matched Layer) 요소를, MIDAS/Civil의 경우에는 점성감쇠-스프링 요소를 적용하였다. 비선형 유한요소는 구조물영역에만 적용되는 것으로 가정하였다. 이 연구에서는 입사지진파에 의한 경계반력은 KIESSI-3D 프로그램을 이용하여 계산하였다. 선형 지반-구조물 상호작용 문제에 대해 일반적인 KIESSI-3D의 해석결과와 BRM해석결과를 비교하여 제시된 방법의 효율성을 제시하였다. 또한 수치적 비교를 통해 비선형 구조에 대해 보수적인 응답을 보이는 선형 SSI문제에 대하여 얻은 경계반력이 비선형 지반-구조물 상호작용해석에 효과적으로 적용 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

  • Effect of boundary layer thickness on the flow characteristics around a rectangular prism has been investigated by using a PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) technique. Three different boundary layers(thick, medium and thin)were generated in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel at Pusan National University. The thick boundary layer having 670mm thickness was generated by using spires and roughness elements. The medium thickness of boundary layer$(\delta=270mm)$ was the natural turbulent boundary layer at the test section with fully long developing length(18m). The thin boundary layer with 36.5mm thickness was generated by on a smooth panel elevated 70cm from the wind tunnel floor. The Reynolds number based on the free stream velocity and the height of the model was $7.9{\times}10^3$. The mean velocity vector fields and turbulent kinetic energy distribution were measured and compared. The effect of boundary layer thickness is clearly observed not only in the length of separation bubble but also in the reattachment points. The thinner boundary layer thickness, the higher turbulent kinetic energy peak around the model roof. It is strongly recommended that the height ratio between model and approaching boundary layer thickness should be a major parameter.

  • This paper presents an exact integration for the hypersingular boundary integral equation of two-dimensional elastostatics. The boundary is discretized by straight segments and the physical variables are approximated by discontinuous quadratic elements. The integral for the hypersingular boundary integral equation analysis is given in a closed form. It is proven that using the exact integration for discontinuous boundary element, the singular integral in the Cauchy Principal Value and the hypersingular integral in the Hadamard Finite Part can be obtained straightforward without special treatment. Two numerical examples are implemented to verify the correctness of the derived exact integration.

  • The prosody can play a crucial role in differentiating ambiguous sentences to correctly reflect their intended syntactic structures. In what way do the speakers in Tokyo and Sendai dialects of Japanese use prosodic elements to differentiate syntactic ambiguities? Acoustic measurement was made of utterances of ambiguous sentences in Japanese to observe prosodic strategies for disambiguation. Materials were sentences of the type ADV-VP1-NP-VP2, ADV-NP1-NP2-VP2, where the ambiguity lies in locative adverbial modification, ADV modifying either VP1 or VP2. For this construction the Japanese create the same ambiguities. After defining the depth of a syntactic boundary, F0 of the phrase before and after the boundary, and duration of the syllable and pause before the boundary were measured. The results show that Tokyo dialects speakers use F0 after syntactic boundary, and Sendai dialects speakers use of the syllable and/or pause before the boundary.

  • 도파관유한요소법 (waveguide finite element method, WFEM)은 단면의 형상이 길이방향으로 일정한 도파관 구조물의 진동을 해석하기 위한 수치해석 기법이다. 도파관유한요소법은 2차원 단면만을 FE 모델링하여 길이방향 파동 전파를 해석하므로 기존의 유한요소법에 비해 해석 모델의 크기가 작고 연산 시간이 짧다는 장점을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 도파관유한요소법을 확장하여 내부 및 외부에 유체가 채워진 도파관 구조물에 대한 진동 해석을 수행하였다. 이를 위해 내부 유체와 도파관 구조물은 WFE로, 외부 유체는 파수경계요소 (waveguide boudnary element, WBE)로 모델링하고 이들을 연성시킨 운동방정식을 제시하였다. 이 방법의 적용 예로써 내부에 물이 채워진 몰수된 파이프의 진동 및 방사 음향 파워를 해석하였다. 내부 및 외부 유체의 유/무에 따른 분산 선도와 가진점 모빌리티 (point mobility)를 구하고 유체 연성의 효과를 살펴보았다.

  • Soils consist of an assemblage of particles with different sizes and shapes which form a skeleton whose voids are filled with water and air. Hence, soil behaviour must be analyzed by incorporating the effects of the transient flow of the pore-fluid through the voids, and therefore requires a two-phase continuum formulation for saturated porous media. The present paper presents briefly the Biot's basic theory of dynamics of saturated porous media with u-P formulation to determine the responses of pore fluid and soil skeleton during cyclic loading. Kelvin elements are attached to transmitting boundary. The Pastor-Zienkiewicz-Chan model has been used to describe the inelastic behavior of soils under isotropic cyclic loadings. Newmark-Beta method is employed to discretize the time domain. The response of fluid-saturated porous media which are subjected to time dependent loads has been simulated numerically to predict the liquefaction potential of a semi-infinite saturated sandy layer using finite-infinite elements. A settlement of 17.1 cm is observed at top surface. It is also noticed that liquefaction occurs at shallow depth. The mathematical advantage of the coupled finite element analysis is that the excess pore pressure and displacement can be evaluated simultaneously without using any empirical relationship.

  • Composite materials are consist of two or more different materials to produce desirable properties for structural strength. Because of their superiority in strength, corrosion resistance, and weight reduction, they are used extensively as structural members. The objective of this study is to present the effectivness of the laminated composite elements by analyzing in-plane displacement and stress of the anisotropic laminated annular elements. Anisotropic laminated structures are very difficult to analyze and apply, compared with isotropic and orthotropic cases for arbitrary boundaries and fiber angle -ply. Boundary conditions for the examples used in this study consist of two opposite edges clamped and the other two edges free, and finite difference method is used in this study for numerical analysis. From the numerical result, it is found that the program used in this study can be used to obtain the displacement of the straight beams considering it's transverse shear deformation as well as anisotropic laminated elements. Several numerical examples show the advantages of the stiffness increase when the angle-ply composite materials are used. Therefore it gives a guide in deciding how to make use of fiber's angle for the subtended angle, load cases, and boundary conditions.

  • 이 연구에서는 연성중심의 보강을 위하여 벽체의 양단부에서 경계요소를 형성하는 내진 보강공법이 적용된 벽체의 반복 휨 거동을 평가하였다. 벽체 경계요소에서 구속효과를 위한 횡보강은 프리스트레스트 와이어로프를 사용하였다. 주요 변수는 제시된 단면 확대공법의 보강 높이로 하였다. 최소 보강 높이는 보강 벽체와 기존 벽체의 모멘트 분포의 비교로부터 결정하였다. 실험결과, 제시된 보강방법은 벽체의 휨 강성 및 연성향상에 매우 효율적이었는데, 최대내력 시 강성과 최대내력의 80%지점에서 산정한 일손상지수는 무보강 벽체에 비해 각각 평균 46%와 210% 증가하였다. 보강높이가 벽체의 일손상지수 증가에 미치는 영향은 보강높이가 $2.0l_w$ 이상일 때 중요하지 않았다. 보강된 벽체의 휨 내력은 ACI 318-14에서 제안하는 등가응력블록을 통한 예측 값보다 22% 이상 높았다.

  • Accurate electroencephalography (EEG) forward calculation is of importance for the accurate estimation of neuronal electrical sources. Conventional studies concerning the EEG forward problems have investigated various factors influencing the forward solution accuracy, e.g. tissue conductivity values in head compartments, anisotropic conductivity distribution of a head model, tessellation patterns of boundary element models, the number of elements used for boundary/finite element method (BEM/FEM), and so on. In the present paper, we investigated the influence of modeling errors in the boundary element volume conductor models upon the accuracy of the EEG forward solutions. From our simulation results, we could confirm that accurate construction of boundary element models is one of the key factors in obtaining accurate EEG forward solutions from BEM. Among three boundaries (scalp, outer skull, and inner skull boundary), the solution errors originated from the modeling error in the scalp boundary were most significant. We found that the nonuniform error distribution on the scalp surface is closely related to the electrode configuration and the error distributions on the outer and inner skull boundaries have statistically meaningful similarity to the curvature distributions of the boundary surfaces. Our simulation results also demonstrated that the accumulation of small modeling errors could lead to considerable errors in the EEG source localization. It is expected that our finding can be a useful reference in generating boundary element head models.
