This paper is devoted to two new techniques for free vibration analysis of concrete arch dam-reservoir systems. The proposed schemes are quadratic ideal-coupled eigen-problems, which can solve the originally non-symmetric eigen-problem of the system. To find the natural frequencies and mode shapes, a new special-purpose eigen-value solution routine is developed. Moreover, the accuracy of the proposed approach is thoroughly assessed, and it is confirmed that the new scheme is very accurate under all practical conditions. It is also concluded that both decoupled and ideal-coupled strategy proposed in the previous works can be considered as special cases of the current more general procedure.

The structural stability for preliminary model of supersonic rocket which has large L/D ratio is investigated. Large L/D ratio can cause a critical problem on the structural stability by the increase of bending-moment. By using the ANSYS and the CFX codes, we inspected the structural stability for Ma=2 and angle of attack for $20^{\circ}$. The optimum number of bolts and their joints required on the rocket surface are predicted.

This paper presents a dam-reservoir interaction model that includes, water compressibility, sloshing of surface water, and radiation damping at the far-end reservoir, to investigate the influence of concrete deterioration on seismic behavior along with seismic performance of gravity dams. Investigations on seismic performance of the dam body have been conducted using the linear time-history responses obtained under six real and 0.3 g normalized earthquake records with time durations from 10 sec to 80 sec. The deterioration of concrete is assumed to develop due to mechanical and chemical actions over the dam lifespan. Several computer programs have been developed in FORTRAN 90 and MATLAB programming languages to analyze the coupled problem considering two-dimensional (2D) plane-strain condition. According to the results obtained from this study, the dam structure shows critical responses at the later ages (75 years) that could cause disastrous consequences; the critical effects of some earthquake loads such as Chi-Chi with 36.5% damage and Loma with 56.2% damage at the later ages of the selected dam body cannot be negligible; and therefore, the deterioration of concrete along with its effects on the dam response should be considered in analysis and design.

The vibration and stability of thin, flexible corotating disks in an enclosed compressible fluid is investigated analytically and compared with the results of a single rotating disk. The discretized dynamical system of the corotating disks is derived in the compact form of a classical gyroscopic system similar with a single disk. For the undamped system, coupled structure-acoustic traveling waves destabilize through mode coalescence leading to flutter instability. However, it is found that the flutter regions of the corotating disks are wider than those of a single disk. A detailed investigation of the effects of dissipation arising from acoustic or disk damping is also performed. Finally, in the presence of both acoustic and disk dampings, the instability regions are found and compared with those of a single disk. Although this study does not allow a radial clearance between the disk and the enclosure, the computational frame work of the problem can be expanded to the system having the radial clearance in an enclosure.

수두증 환자의 뇌압을 조절하기 위해 사용되는 션트밸브의 압력-유량제어 특성과 설계변수 변화에 따른 특성곡선의 변화를 수치적으로 해석 하였다. 해석에 사용된 션트밸브는 국내에서 설계 제작된 일정 압력형 다이아프램 타입이며 실험을 통하여 해석의 타당성을 검증하였다. 션트밸브 내부에 장착된 압력-유량 제어용 소형 다이아프램이 실리콘 일래스토머 계통의 유연한 재질이므로 유동구조 상호해석을 수행하였다 구조해석시의 재료 비선형성을 고려하여 고탄성 재료에 대한 므니 리블린(Mooney-Rivlin) 근사를 적용하였다. 수치해석결과 얻어진 압력-유량제어 특성곡선은 실험결과와 유사하였고 션트밸브를 통한 압력강하의 대부분은 소형 다이아프램에서 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있었다 본 연구에서 해석된 션트밸브의 압력-유량 특성곡선의 기울기는 7.37mm$H_2O$.hr/cc로서 상용 션트밸브의 기울기 평균값 0.40mm$H_2O$.hr/cc과 비슷하여 일정압력형 션트밸브의 특성을 잘 나타내었다. 오프닝압력의 크기는 밸브 다이아프램의 초기쳐짐량 크기에 의존하였고. 25mm$H_2O$와 80mm$H_2O$의 오프닝압력을 얻기 위해서는 10.2$\mu$m와 35.3$\mu$m의 초기쳐짐량이 필요하였다. 밸브가 열리면서 유동이 발생할 경우, 유동 오리피스 간극이 107m 이내이므로 션트밸브의 성공적인 동작을 위해서는 정밀설계와 제작기술이 요구된다. 본 연구를 통해 다이아프램의 초기쳐짐량과 유동 오리피스를 형성하는 다이아프램 끝단의 라운딩 크기가 압력-유량 특성곡선의 기울기에 영향을 미치는 주요 설계변수임을 확인하였다.

This paper considers a fully coupled 3D BEM-FEM analysis for the ship structural hydroelasticity problem in waves. Fluid flows and structural responses are analyzed by using a 3D Rankine panel method and a 3D finite element method, respectively. The two methods are fully coupled in the time domain using a fixed-point iteration scheme, and a relaxation scheme is applied for improve convergence. In order to validate the developed method, numerical tests are carried out for a barge model. The computed natural frequency, motion responses, and time histories of stress are compared with the results of the beam-based hydroelasticity program, WISH-FLEX, which was thoroughly validated in previous studies. This study extends to a real-ship application, particularly the springing analysis for a 6500 TEU containership. Based on this study, it is found that the present method provides reliable solutions to the ship hydroelasticity problems.

최근에는 법공학 분야에 구조해석 및 구조-유동 연성해석을 이용한 다양한 시뮬레이션 기법을 활용하여 안전사고 및 재난사고에 대한 법적 책임문제를 해명하고 보다 정확한 원인분석을 통해 원인을 규명하고 있는 추세이다. 본 연구에서는 법공학적 관점에서 DCM(Deep Cement Mixing) 선박의 침몰 사고의 원인을 밝혀내고자 하였다. 사고 선박은 선박 건조 당시 SCP(Sand Compaction Pile) 전용 선박으로 건조되었으며, DCM 선박으로 구조 변경을 위해 안정성 검토 없이 리더부 높이 변경 및 증설을 하였다. 이러한 구조물의 증설 및 변경이 본 침몰 사고에 미치는 영향을 알아내고자 상용 구조 해석프로그램인 ADINA를 이용하여 구조안정성 평가를 수행하였으며, 본 연구를 통하여 구조물의 증설 및 변경에 따른 ADINA 해석 결과를 비교, 분석함으로써 DCM 선박 침몰 사고의 정확한 원인을 밝혀낼 수 있었다.

A unified hydrocode, ExLO, in which Largrangian, ALE and Eulerian solvers are incorporated into a single framework, has recently been developed in Korea. It is based on the three dimensional explicit finite element method and written in C++. ExLO is mainly designed for the calculation of structural responses to highly transient loading conditions, such as high-speed impacts, high-speed machining, high speed forming and explosions. In this paper the numerical schemes are described. Some improvements of the material interface and advection scheme are included. Details and issues of the momentum advection scheme are provided. In this paper the modeling capability of ExLO has been described for two extreme loading events; high-speed impacts and explosions. Numerical predictions are in good agreement with the existing experimental data. Specific applications of the code are discussed in a separate paper in this journal. Eventually ExLO will be providing an optimum simulation environment to engineering problems including the fluid-structure interaction problems, since it allows regions of a problem to be modeled with Lagrangian, ALE or Eulerian schemes in a single framework.

This paper intends to introduce the applicability of HydroQus to a problem of a tanker collision against a semi-submersible type floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT). HydroQus is a plug-in based on potential flow theory that generates interactive hydroforces in a commercial Finite element analysis (FEA) code Abaqus/Explicit. Frequency response analyses were conducted for a 10MW capacity FOWT to obtain hydrostatic and hydrodynamic constants. The tanker was modeled with rigid elements, while elastic-plastic elements were used for the FOWT. Mooring chains were modeled to implement station keeping ability of the FOWT. Two types of fracture models were considered: constant failure strain model and combined failure strain model HC-LN model composed of Hosford-Coulomb (HC) model & localized necking (LN) model. The damage extents were evaluated by hydroforces and failure strain models. The largest equivalent plastic strain observed in the cases where both restoring force and radiation force were considered. Stress triaxiality and damage indicator analysis showed that the application of HC-LN model was suitable. It could be stated that applications of suitable failure strain model and hydrodynamics into the collision simulations were of importance.

본 논문은 효과적인 무반사 기법을 이용한 수중폭발에 따른 부유식 해상풍력발전기의 동응답 수치해석에 관한 내용이다. 수치해석을 위해 무한한 바다 영역을 유한한 영역으로 한정하고 그 경계에서 필연적인 충격파의 반사를 흡수하기 위해 PML(perfectly matched layer)이라 불리는 무반사 기법을 적용하였다. 수중폭발을 수반한 비점성 압축성 유동을 표현하는 일반화된 수송방정식은 방향별 흡수계수와 상태변수를 도입하여 3개의 PML 방정식으로 분리하였다. 풍력발전기와 해수 유동으로 구성된 유체-구조 연계문제는 오일러 기반의 유한체적법과 라그랑지 기반의 유한요소법을 연계하여 반복계산으로 해석하였다. 그리고 수중폭발에 따른 동수압은 JWL 상태방정식으로 계산하였다. 수치실험을 통해 수중폭발에 따른 동수압과 구조 동응답을 분석하였으며, PML 무반사 기법을 적용한 경우가 그렇지 않은 경우에 비해 보다 정확한 해석결과를 제공함을 확인하였다.
