This study shows functionally graded material structural topology optimization under buckling constraints. The SIMP (Solid Isotropic Material with Penalization) material model is used and a method of moving asymptotes is also employed to update topology design variables. In this study, the quadrilateral element is applied to compute buckling load factors. Instead of artificial density properties, functionally graded materials are newly assigned to distribute optimal topology materials depending on the buckling load factors in a given design domain. Buckling load factor formulations are derived and confirmed by the resistance of functionally graded material properties. However, buckling constraints for functionally graded material topology optimization have not been dealt with in single material. Therefore, this study aims to find the minimum compliance topology optimization and the buckling load factor in designing the structures under buckling constraints and generate the functionally graded material distribution with asymmetric stiffness properties that minimize the compliance. Numerical examples verify the superiority and reliability of the present method.

In this paper, an environmental factor and a durability resistance factor which adapts the concept of the Load Resistance Factor Design for safety design of RC structures is derived and a basic principle of a durability evaluation for RC structures using the factors is proposed. It is shown that durability of RC structures can be evaluated by comparing predicted value of chloride ion concentration with limit value of concentration for steel corrosion generation in reinforcement steel position and the durability of concrete manufactured for the RC structures can be also evaluated by comparing characteristic diffusion coefficient of concrete with predicted diffusion coefficient during mixture design.

Recently, probabilistic assessments of nuclear power plant components have generated interest in the nuclear industries, either for the efficient inspection and maintenance of older nuclear plants or for improving the safety and cost-effective design of newly constructed nuclear plants. In the present paper, the partial safety factor (PSF) of wall-thinned nuclear piping is evaluated based on a reliability index method, from which the effect of each statistical variable (assessment parameter) on a certain target probability is evaluated. In order to calculate the PSF of a wall-thinned pipe, a limit state function based on the load and resistance factor design (LRFD) concept is first constructed. As for the reliability assessment method, both the advanced first-order second moment (AFOSM) method and second-order reliability method (SORM) are employed to determine the PSF of each probabilistic variable. The present results can be used for developing maintenance strategies considering the priorities of input variables for structural integrity assessments of wall-thinned piping, and this PSF concept can also be applied to the optimal design of the components of newly constructed plants considering the target reliability levels.

For earthquake resistance design, a response modification factor is used to reduce the design strength and it reflects ductility, reserve strength, redundancy and damping effect. But this factor has not theoretical basis. In this study, two response modification factors are compared and analyzed for shear wall apartment building.; the one is introduced by ATC-19 Procedures, the other is suggested FEMA-273 and ATC-40 through nonlinear static analysis. For the results, ATC-19 procedure gives a reasonable estimation to R factor. But $R_{u}$ by using FEAM-273 and ATC-40 methods is estimated so small in case of a minor or moderate earthquake region. Due to this fact, response modification factor is smaller than suggested load criterion 3.0. So, it needs to decrease wall volume and reduce the global strength and system stiffness for proper ductile behavior matching to domestic load criterion.

An estimation algorithm for vehicle driving load has been proposed in this paper. Driving load is an important factor in a vehicle's longitudinal motion control. An approach using an observer is introduced to estimate driving load based on inexpensive RPM sensors currently being used in production vehicles. Also, a torque estimation technique using nonlinear characteristic functions has been incorporated in this estimation algorithm. Using a nonlinear full vehicle simulation model, we study the effect of the driving load on longitudinal vehicle motion, and the performance of the estimation algorithm has been evaluated. The proposed estimation algorithm has good performance and robustness over uncertainties in the system parameters. An accurate estimate of the driving load can be very helpful in the development of advance vehicle control systems such as intelligent cruise control systems, CW/CA systems and smooth shift control systems.

국내 외 하중저항계수설계법의 저항계수 보정 시 수집된 데이터베이스의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위하여 저항편향계수 산정 단계에서 저항편향치의 ${\pm}2{\sigma}$ 범위의 데이터만을 선택하거나 가정된 확률분포 검정을 만족하도록 꼬리(tail)부분의 데이터를 제거하는 방법을 적용하고 있다. 그러나 이들 방법에서는 데이터베이스 내에 우연히 포함된 저품질의 데이터를 확인할 수 없는 단점이 발견되었다. 본 연구에서는 정재하시험의 품질, 원지반의 공학적 특성, 쇄석다짐말뚝의 제원 등의 품질기준을 이용하여 데이터베이스 구축 단계에서 수행할 수 있는 품질평가법을 제안하였으며, 국내 외 문헌 및 정재하시험 보고서로부터 65개소의 정재하시험 데이터를 수집하여 데이터베이스의 구축 및 품질평가를 수행하였다. 데이터베이스의 품질 평가 상태에 따른 저항편향계수와 변동계수, 저항계수를 비교한 결과, 기존의 데이터베이스 처리과정과 품질평가법을 병행할 경우에 저항편향계수의 불확실성이 감소되며, 신뢰도 높은 LRFD 저항계수 보정에 효과적인 것으로 판단된다.

국내 기초구조물에 대한 저항계수 산정 및 하중저항계수설계법(LRFD) 개발의 일환으로 항타강관말뚝에 대한 저항편향계수를 산정하였다. 정재하시험 및 지반조사 자료를 수집하여 국내외의 기준에 따른 극한지지력을 산정한 후 말뚝의 대표 극한지지력을 결정하였다. 자료의 통계분석 결과에 기초하면, Davisson 기준이 말뚝의 극한지지력을 가장 합리적으로 평가하는 것으로 나타났다. 정역학적 지지력 공식과 N치를 이용한 Meyerhof 경험식을 이용하여 설계 극한지지력을 산정하였다. 이들 자료의 비교 분석을 통해 항타강관말뚝의 저항편향계수는 정역학적 지지력공식과 Meyerhof 경험식에 대해 각각 0.98, 1.46으로 산정되었다. 또한 두 가지 지지력 산정방법 중 정역학적 지지력공식의 불확실성이 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

The expediency of revising universal rules for the combination of gravity and lateral actions of wind force-resisting steel structures recommended by the Standards EN 1990 and ASCE/SEI 7-05 is discussed. Extreme wind forces, gravity actions and their combinations for the limit state design of structures are considered. The effect of statistical uncertainties of extreme wind pressure and steel yield strength on the structural safety of beam-column joints of wind force-resisting multistory steel frames designed by the partial factor design (PFD) and the load and resistance factor design (LRFD) methods is demonstrated. The limit state criterion and the performance process of steel frame joints are presented and considered. Their long-term survival probability analysis is based on the unsophisticated method of transformed conditional probabilities. A numerical example illustrates some discrepancies in international design standards and the necessity to revise the rule of universal combinations of loads in wind and structural engineering.

Based on the developments of the reliability-based steel structural analysis and design as well as the extending knowledgy on the probabilitic characteristics of loading and resistance the probability based design criteria have been successful Iy developed for many students. The existing design codes, which are genarally based on the structural theory and certain engineering experience, do not realistically consider the uncertainties of loads and resistance and the basic reliability concepts. It is recognized to develope the design criteria by ETCM(Expected Total cost Minimization). In this study, therefore, the proper probability based design criteria (Optimum load and resistance factor design formats ) has been developed based on the safety levels observed from calibration Iii th existing standards, which applies to the ultimate limit states of steel structural members.
