In this paper, the structural strengths of a rolling stock seat were numerically evaluated under several design load conditions based on the UIC requirements. The rolling stock seat was designed for the high speed train of a Chinese conventional line. To maximize its weight reduction and structural strength, some aluminium alloys like 6N01-T5 and ALDC8-T5 were applied to the base frame, side frame and armrest. The designed seat frame satisfied the strength requirements on inertia loads due to accelerations, and fatigue test conditions. However, it violated the requirements on the static test of UIC 566 OR. Some design modifications were suggested and numerically evaluated to satisfy the static test requirements.

In this paper, experimental investigations on the inelastic seismic behavior of tunnel form buildings (i.e., box-type or panel systems) are presented. Two four-story scaled building specimens were tested under quasi-static cyclic lateral loading in longitudinal and transverse directions. The experimental results and supplemental finite element simulations collectively indicate that lightly reinforced structural walls of tunnel form buildings may exhibit brittle flexural failure under seismic action. The global tension/compression couple triggers this failure mechanism by creating pure axial tension in outermost shear-walls. This type of failure takes place due to rupturing of longitudinal reinforcement without crushing of concrete, therefore is of particular interest in emphasizing the mode of failure that is not routinely considered during seismic design of shear-wall dominant structural systems.

Static and dynamic responses of a completely free elastic beam resting on a two-parameter tensionless Pasternak foundation are investigated by assuming that the beam is symmetrically subjected to a uniformly distributed load and concentrated load at its middle. Governing equations of the problem are obtained and solved by paying attention on the boundary conditions of the problem including the concentrated edge foundation reaction in the case of complete contact and lift-off condition of the beam ina two-parameter foundation. The nonlinear governing equation of the problem is evaluated numerically by adopting an iterative procedure. Numerical results are presented in figures to demonstrate the non-linear behavior of the beam-foundation system for various values of the parameters of the problem comparatively by considering the static and dynamic loading cases.

Servo presses are used in variety of ways in industry throughout the production and assembly lines of machine parts. The bottom of the servo press is fixed to a bed or a tabletop, and the press cylinder continuously operates under vertical upward loads. In this research, a static structural analysis was performed by simplifying 3D model of the servo press, and the maximum deformation was applied to the clamp and bolt. The maximum value of Von Mises stress was reported in this paper. The result was used to calculate the safety factor, and it was confirmed that the design was conservative.

연쇄붕괴는 구조부재의 국부적인 파괴가 주변부재로 이어지고 이 파괴가 또 다른 주변부재의 파괴로 이어지는 붕괴를 의미한다. 현재 국내에서는 연쇄붕괴 방지를 위한 설계지침이 마련되어 있지 않은 형편이다. 특히 구조설계 시 연쇄붕괴 저항성능의 평가를 할 필요가 있을 때 연쇄붕괴 방법 및 절차에 대한 기준이 없어 엔지니어들이 많은 어려움을 느끼고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 연쇄붕괴 저항성능평가에 가장 많이 사용되는 GSA 가이드라인을 이용하여 정적 및 동적해석에 의해 평가하는 방법 및 절차를 소개하고, 철근콘크리트 모멘트저항골조에 대해 연쇄붕괴 성능평가를 수행하여 각 해석방법에 의한 결과를 비교, 분석하였다. 연구의 결과 국내 설계기준에 의해 내진 설계된 해석모델의 철근콘크리트 모멘트저항골조 시스템은 DCR 값이 2를 초과하여 연쇄붕괴에 충분한 대체하중 경로를 제공하지 못하며, 연쇄붕괴를 고려하기 위해서는 추가적인 보강이 고려되어야 할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 선형동적해석과 선형정적해석의 수직 처짐 및 DCR 값을 비교한 결과, 정적해석에 의한 평가결과보다 보수적인 결과를 나타내어 실용적인 방법으로서 현재 제안되고 있는 하중조합의 2배를 고려하는 동적계수를 고려한 선형정적해석의 사용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

오늘날 항공기의 경량화를 위해 복합재료를 사용하는 것은 필수적인 설계 및 제작 요건이 되고 있다. 복합재료로 제작된 날개는 적층각에 따라 구조적 특성이 심하게 변화될 수 있기 때문에 설계시 최적의 적층각을 결정하는 것이 매우 중요한 문제이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 복합재료 날개의 적층각에 대한 정적 공탄성 최적화 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 공력하중에 대한 복합재료 날개의 구조 평형상태를 구할 수 있는 정적 공탄성(하중재분포) 해석시스템을 개발하였으며, 유전자 알고리즘을 활용한 최적화 프로그램이 통합 개발되었다. 후퇴각이 있는 복합재료날개에 대하여 적층각 변화가 정적 공탄성 변형에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였으며, 구조 변형이 최소가 되는 경우의 최적 적층각 조건을 구하였다. 이를 토대로 실제 제작에 실용적인 적층각 조합에 대하여 정적 공탄성 특성을 최대화 할 수 있는 최적 적층각 조건이 제시되었다.

A radially retractable roof structure based on the concept of the hybrid grid shell is proposed in this paper. The single-layer steel trusses of the radially foldable bar structure are diagonally stiffened by cables, which leads to a single-layer lattice shell with triangular mesh. Then comparison between the static behavior between the retractable hybrid grid shell and the corresponding foldable bar shell with quadrangular mesh is discussed. Moreover, the effects of different structural parameters, such as the rise-to-span ratio, the bar cross section area and the pre-stress of the cables, on the structural behaviors are investigated. The results show that prestressed cables can strengthen the foldable bar shell with quadrangular mesh. Higher structural stiffness is anticipated by introducing cables into the hybrid system. When the rise-span ratio is equal to 0.2, where the joint displacement reaches the minimal value, the structure shape of the hyrbid grid shell approaches the reasonable arch axis. The increase of the section of steel bars contributes a lot to the integrity stiffness of the structure. Increasing cable sections would enhance the structure stiffness, but it contributes little to axial forces in structural members. And the level of cable prestress has slight influence on the joint displacements and member forces.

구조최적설계는 구조물의 성능 개선을 추구하며, 최근에는 구조최적설계는 항공기와 같이 복잡하고 대형인 구조물의 설계에 적용되고 있다. 해석의 정확도를 높이기 위해 유한요소의 수가 증가하는 추세이나 이는 설계 비용의 증가로 이어진다. 이에 부분구조합성법으로써 구분모드합성법이 해석시간 단축을 위해 종종 사용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 구조물의 동적특성을 고려하고 해석의 정확도는 유지하면서, 설계에 소요되는 시간과 비용을 줄일 수 있는 설계방법을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 등가정하중을 이용한 동적응답 최적설계에, 부분구조합성법을 적용하여 설계영역만을 고려한 구조최적설계를 수행하는 것이다. 제안한 방법의 유용성 검증을 위하여 선형 및 비선형 동적응답 최적설계의 예제를 풀이하고, 그 결과에 대해 토의한다.

This study proposes a structural design method for the upper control arm installed at the rear side of a SUV. The weight of control arm can be reduced by applying the design and material technologies. In this research, the former includes optimization technology, and the latter the technologies for selecting aluminum as a steel-substitute material. Strength assessment is the most important design criterion in the structural design of a control arm. At the proto design stage of a new control arm, FE (finite element) analysis is often utilized to predict its strength. This study considers the static strength in the optimization process. The inertia relief method for FE analysis is utilized to simulate the static loading conditions. According to the classification of structural optimization, the structural design of a control arm is included in the category of shape optimization. In this study, the kriging interpolation method is adopted to obtain the minimum weight satisfying the strength constraint. Optimum designs are obtained by ANSYS WORKBENCH and the in-house program, EXCEL-kriging program. The optimum results determined from the in-house program are compared with those of ANSYS WORKBENCH.

The progressive collapse resistance performance of a steel structure constructed using the moment frame with the WUF-B connection and the composite slabs was evaluated. GSA 2003 was adapted for the evaluation. Additionally the structural robustness and the sensitivity against the progressive collapse were analyzed. In the numerical analysis, a reduced model comprised of the beam and spring elements for WUF-B connection was adapted. The composite slab was modeled using the composite-shell element. Instead of the time-consuming dynamic analysis for the effect of the sudden column removal, the equivalent energy-based static analysis was effectively applied. The analysis results showed that the structure was the most vulnerable to in the case of the internal column removal, however it satisfied the chord rotation criterion of GSA 2003 due to the contribution of the composite slab which improved the stiffness of structure. In the robustness evaluation, the structural performance showed more than 2.5 times of the requirement according to GSA 2003, and the structural sensitivity analysis indicated the decrease of 33% of the initial structural performance.
