This paper describes a load simulator with power-recovery capability, which is based on the voltage source converter-inverter set. The load simulator described in this paper can save the electric energy that should be consumed to test the operation and performance of the distributed generation system and the power quality compensator. The load simulator consists of a converter-inverter set with a DSP controller for system control and PWM pulse generation. The converter operates as a universal load to model the linear load and the non-linear load, while the inverter feed the energy back to the power source with harmonic compensation. The load simulator can be widely used in the lab to test the performance of the distributed generation system and the power quality compensator.

The paper presents the analysis of two groups of piles subjected to lateral loads incorporating the non-linear behaviour of soil. The finite element method is adopted for carrying out the parametric study of the pile groups. The pile is idealized as a one dimensional beam element, the pile cap as two dimensional plate elements and the soil as non-linear elastic springs using the p-y curves developed by Georgiadis et al. (1992). Two groups of piles, embedded in a cohesive soil, involving two and three piles in series and parallel arrangement thereof are considered. The response of the pile groups is found to be significantly affected by the parameters such as the spacing between the piles, the number of piles in a group and the orientation of the lateral load. The non-linear response of the system is, further, compared with the one by Chore et al. (2012) obtained by the analysis of a system to the present one, except that the soil is assumed to be linear elastic. From the comparison, it is observed that the non-linearity of soil is found to increase the top displacement of the pile group in the range of 66.4%-145.6%, while decreasing the fixed moments in the range of 2% to 20% and the positive moments in the range of 54% to 57%.

본 논문에서는 평직구조를 갖는 성층권 비행선 기낭의 하중막재에 대한 비선형 유한요소 해석 결과를 기술하였다. 평직구조를 갖는 하중막재의 미세구조를 3차원적으로 구현하였고, Updated Lagrangian 방법을 사용하여 기하학적 비선형성을 고려하였다 계산결과, 큰 변형률에서 비선형해석으로부터 얻은 응력-변형률 곡선은 선형해석의 결과와 큰 차이를 보였다. 또한 응력-변형률 곡선으로부터 얻은 비선형 탄성계수 값은 선형 탄성계수보다 큰 값을 보였는데 그 차이는 섬유의 굴곡도가 작은 경우 더욱 두드러지게 나타났다

The paper investigates beam lateral buckling stability according to linear and non-linear models. Closed form solutions for single-symmetric cross sections are first derived according to a non-linear model considering flexural-torsional coupling and pre-buckling deformation effects. The closed form solutions are compared to a beam finite element developed in large torsion. Effects of pre-buckling deflection and gradient moment on beam stability are not well known in the literature. The strength of singly symmetric I-beams under gradient moments is particularly investigated. Beams with T and I cross-sections are considered in the study. It is concluded that pre-buckling deflections effects are important for I-section with large flanges and analytical solutions are possible. For beams with T-sections, lateral buckling resistance depends not only on pre-buckling deflection but also on cross section shape, load distribution and buckling modes. Effects of pre-buckling deflections are important only when the largest flange is under compressive stresses and positive gradient moments. For negative gradient moments, all available solutions fail and overestimate the beam strength. Numerical solutions are more powerful. Other load cases are investigated as the stability of continuous beams. Under arbitrary loads, all available solutions fail, and recourse to finite element simulation is more efficient.

본 논문은 복잡한 비평활 발전비용함수를 가진 경제급전의 최적화 문제를 풀기 위해 단순히 선형 근사함수를 이용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 비평활 발전비용 함수를 선형으로 근사시키고, 요구량이 현재의 발전량을 초과하는 경우 발전단가가 비싼 발전기의 가동을 중지시키고, 발전단가가 보다 큰 발전기의 발전량을 감소시켜 요구량과 발전량의 균형을 맞추는 개념을 도입하였다. 경제급전 문제의 시험사례로 빈번히 활용되고 있는 데이터에 대해 제안된 알고리즘을 적용한 결과 기존의 휴리스틱 알고리즘의 최적화 해를 획기적으로 감소시킬 수 있었으며, 현재 실무적으로 적용되고 있는 2차 평활함수 근사법과 유사한 결과를 얻었다.

This paper deals with the geometrical non-linear analyses of the buckled columns. Differential equations governing elasticas of the buckled columns are derived, in which both effects of taper type and shear deformation are included. Three kinds of taper types such as breadth, depth and square tapers are considered. Differential equations are solved numerically to obtain the elasticas and buckling loads of such columns. End constraint of both clamped ends and both hinged ends are considered. The effects of shear deformation on the elastica of the buckled column and buckling load of column are investigated extensively. Experimental studies are presented that complement theoretical results of non-linear responses of the elasticas.

In this paper, non-linear dynamic buckling behaviour of laminated composite curved panels subjected to dynamic in-plane axial compressive loads is studied using finite element methods. The work is carried out using the finite element software ABAQUS. The curved panels are modelled with S4R element and the nonlinear dynamic equilibrium equations are solved using the ABAQUS/Explicit algorithm. The effect of aspect ratio, radius of curvature and thickness are studied. The importance of orientation of plies in the direction of loading is also reiterated in this study. Vol'mir's criterion is used to calculate the dynamic buckling loads. The panels are subjected to rectangular pulse load of various amplitude and durations and the responses are observed. For particular loading amplitude, a critical value of loading duration is observed beyond which the variation of dynamic buckling load is insignificant. It is also observed that, the value of dynamic bucking load reduces as the loading duration is increased though the reduction is not much after a particular loading duration.

The objective of this study is to develop an integrated process planning system which can flexibly cope with the status changes in a shop floor by utilizing the concept of Non-Linear and Closed-Loop Process Planning(NCPP). In this paper, Genetic Algorithm(GA) is employed in order to quickly generate feasible setup sequences for minimizing the makespan and tardiness under an NCPP. The genetic algorithm developed in this study for getting the machine load utilizes differentiated mutation rate and method in order to increase the chance to avoid a local optimum and to reach a global optimum. Also, it adopts a double gene structure for the sake of convenient modeling of the shop floor. The last step in this system is a simulation process which selects a proper process plan among alternative process plans.

In this research work, nonlinear thermal buckling behavior of functionally graded (FG) plates is explored based a new higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). The present model has just four unknowns, by using a new supposition of the displacement field which enforces undetermined integral variables. A shear correction factor is, thus, not necessary. A power law distribution is employed to express the disparity of volume fraction of material distributions. Three kinds of thermal loading, namely, uniform, linear, and nonlinear and temperature rises over z-axis direction are examined. The non-linear governing equations are resolved for plates subjected to simply supported boundary conditions at the edges. The results are approved with those existing in the literature. Impacts of various parameters such as aspect and thickness ratios, gradient index, type of thermal load rising, on the non-dimensional thermal buckling load are all examined.

Stability of laminated plate under thermal load varied linearly along thickness, is developed using a higher order displacement field which depend on a parameter "m", whose value is optimized to get results closest to three-dimension elasticity results. Hamilton, s principle is used to derive equations of motion for laminated plates. These equations are solved using Navier-type for simply supported boundary conditions to obtain non uniform critical thermal buckling and fundamental frequency under a ratio of this load. Many design parameters of cross ply and angle ply laminates such as, number of layers, aspect ratios and E1/E2 ratios for thick and thin plates are investigated. It is observed that linear and uniform distribution of temperature reduces plate frequency.
