The specially prefabricated steel moment connections with pyramid head is one of the significant innovations in the steel structures forms to improve the installation time and simplify the construction procedure. The beams in this structure form are supported by two top and bottom angles and web double angles. Such a configuration despite its advantages increases the welding operation and filed installation time and costs. In this paper, the effect of using beams with channel and I section in three classes of seismically compact, seismically non-compact, and slender section according to width-to-thickness ratio on the behavior of the connection was investigated under monotonic and cyclic loading. Modeling was performed by ABAQUS and verified by the results of an experimental specimen. The findings indicated that using I and channel section instead of angle section reduces the amount of welding materials as well as easing the installation procedure. However, it has no significant effect on the ultimate strength and ductility of the connection. Furthermore, if the beam section is seismically compact, this form is considered as a special moment frame that has a rotation capacity up to 0.04 radians without any reduction in connection moment resistance.

A two-dimensional cross-section analysis program based on the finite element method has been developed for composite blades with arbitrary cross-section profiles and material distributions. The modulus weighted approach is used to take into account the non-homogeneous material characteristics of advanced blades. The CLPT (Classical Lamination Plate Theory) is applied to obtain the effective moduli of the composite laminate. The location of shear center for any given cross-sections are determined according to the Trefftz' definition while the torsion constants are obtained using the St. Venant torsion theory. A series of benchmark examples for beams with various cross-sections are illustrated to show the accuracy of the developed cross-section analysis program. The cross section cases include thin-walled C-channel, I-beam, single-cell box, NACA0012 airfoil, and KARI small-scale blades. Overall, a reasonable correlation is obtained in comparison with experiments or finite element analysis results.

적층된 박벽 복합재료 보의 자유 진동에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 박벽 C형강 복합재료의 동적 거동에 적용 가능한 일반적인 해석 모델을 개발하였다. 이 모델은 classical lamination theory를 기초로 두고 있으며, 임의의 적층 상태의 구성 즉, 대칭뿐만 아니라 비대칭의 적층 상태, 그리고 다양한 경계조건에 따른 휨과 비틀림 형상의 연계(coupling)을 설명하였다. 변위를 기반으로 한 일차원 유한 요소 모델은 박벽 복합재료 보의 고유 진동수와 그에 대응하는 진동 모드를 예측하기 위해 개발되었다. 운동방정식은 Hamiton의 원리로부터 유도되었으며, 수치적인 결과는 박벽 복합재 보에서 복합재료의 진동수와 모드 형상에 대해 적층각, 계수비, 그리고 경계조건의 영향을 얻을 수 있었다.
