In combat operations, naval ships may be subjected to considerable air blast and underwater shock loads capable of causing severe structural damage. As the experimental study imposes great monetary and time cost, the numerical solution may provide a valuable alternative. This study emphasises on numerical analysis for optimization of stiffened and unstiffened plate's structural response subjected to air blast load. Linear and non linear finite element (FE) modeling and analysis was carried out and compared with existing experimental results. The obtained results reveal a good agreement between numerical and experimental observations. The presented FE models can eliminate confusion regarding parameters selection and FE operations processing, using commercial software available currently.

In this study, nine reinforced concrete infilled frames involved bare frames were tested during vertical and cyclic loads simultaneously. This test programs were carried to investigate the horizontal strength and the crack propagation in variance with hoop reinforcement ratio. All specimens were modeling in one-third scale size. In this experimental program structural performance of reinforced concrete shear wall were focus at connection types. Based on the test results, the following conclusions are made. In the boundary column member of reinforced concrete shear wall, increasing the ratio of hoop bar in two or three times, in the fully babel type, the shear and horizontal strength of specimens were increased 1.1-1.2 times than that of fully rigid frame. And infilled shear wall specimen were increased 1.17-1.27 times than that. Fully rigid babel type shear wall specimens were increased 5.7~8.0 times, and infilled shear wall specimens were increased about 4.0~5.6 times than that of infilled shear wall specimens.

A 2-bay 2-story moment-resisting reinforced concrete plane frame with seismic detail was designed. One 1/2.5-scale and one 1/10th model subassemblages were manufactured accoring to the required similitude law. Then the reversed load tests under the displacement control were performed statically to these subassemblages. The results of these tests were compared regarding to the similitude in the characteristics of structural behaviors such as strength., stiffness, energy dissipation, failure modes and local deformations. Based on these results, the following conclussions were drawn : (1) The strength of 1/10 model was very similar to that of 1/2.5 specimen. (2) The initial stiffness of 1/10 model appers to be approximately 2/3 of that of 1/2.5 specimen. (3) 1/10 model has therefore smaller energy dissipation capacity than 1/2.5 specimen. (4) Inelastic excursion mechanisms of 1/2.5 specimen and 1/10 model apper to be a little different.

Deteriorative effects of steel corrosion on the structural response of reinforced concrete are simulated for varying degrees of corrosion. The simulation approach is based on a three-dimensional irregular lattice model of the bulk concrete, in which fracture is modeled using a crack band approach that conserves fracture energy. Frame elements and bond link elements represent the reinforcing steel and its interface with the concrete, respectively. Polylinear stress-slip properties of the link elements are determined, for several degrees of corrosion, through comparisons with direct pullout tests reported in the literature. The link properties are then used for the lattice modeling of reinforced concrete beams with similar degrees of corrosion of the main reinforcing steel. The model is successful in simulating several important effects of steel corrosion, including increased deflections, changes in flexural cracking behavior, and reduced yield load of the beam specimens.

Exterior beam-column joints are structural elements that ensure connection between beams and columns. The joint strength is generally assumed to be governed by the structural element of lowest load capacity (beam or column), however, the joint may be the weakest link. The joint shear behavior is still not well understood due to the influence of several variables, such as geometry of the connection, stress level in the column, concrete strength and longitudinal beam reinforcement. A parametrical study based only on experiments would be impracticable and not necessarily exposes the failure mechanisms. This paper reports on a set of numerical simulations conducted in DIANA$^{(R)}$ software for the investigation of the shear strength of exterior joints. The geometry of the joints and stress level on the column are the variables evaluated. Results have led to empirical expressions that provide the shear strength of unreinforced exterior beam-column joints.

Advances in geological studies, have identified increased seismic activity in the world's ocean once believed to be far from seismic hazards. The increase in demand of oil and other hydrocarbons leaves no option but to install a suitable offshore platform on these seismically sensitive offshore basins. Therefore, earthquake based design criteria for offshore structures are essential. The focus of the present review is on various computational techniques involved for seismic response study. The structural and load modeling approaches, the disturbed fluid-structure and soil-structure interaction as well as hydrodynamic damping due to earthquake excitation are also discussed. A brief description on the reliability-based seismic design approach is also presented.

Steel arch supports are used in mines and underground structures to provide stability. Most of the supports are made up of overlapping arches. They can behave either yieldingly or unyieldingly. If the normal force at any point of overlapping equals the slip resistance, the slide occurs. This paper presents a solution procedure for determining the load-carrying capacity of steel arch supports in the yielding implementation. This solution considers the effects of several significant elements, including differing materials and the number of clamps in yielding friction joints. The direct stiffness method is applied. The solution contains geometric, physical, and structural nonlinearity. The results obtained from numerical modeling using the provided procedure are compared to laboratory tests conducted at GIG Katowice in 2012. They show a good correlation with previously collected data from equivalent laboratory conditions.

본 연구는 새로운 차체를 이용 구급자동차 내부 공간의 디자인 작업에 따른 차량 내부의 구조해석을 수행한 결과로서, 해외 기준 및 디자인된 구급자동차를 바탕으로 3D 설계 작업을 수행하였다. 또한, 차체 및 구급자동차 내부에 대하여 10G의 충격을 가한 후 이에 따른 구조해석 결과를 살펴보았다. 이때 부품의 자중과 구성품의 무게를 고려하여 유럽의 EN 규정에 따라 해석을 수행하였다. 구조해석 결과, 차량 내부의 프레임과 각종 파이프로 구성되어진 핸드레일은 비교적 큰 응력의 하중은 받지 않았으나 내장 판넬과 캐비넷류는 50MPa 이상의 큰 응력을 받는 것으로 해석되었다. 이에 따른 보강 설계를 실시하는 경우에는 두께 및 형상의 수정이 필요하다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 바탕으로 국내 구급자동차를 이용하는 구급대원 및 차량내부의 환자에게 보다 안전한 차량을 제작하는 기초자료가 될 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.

모듈러 구조물은 관행적으로 철골 모멘트 저항골조와 유사한 횡력저항성능을 가진다는 가정하에 내진 설계된다. 하지만 모듈러 구조물은 중첩된 구조 부재와 단위 모듈의 체결을 위한 복잡한 접합 상세를 가지기 때문에 철골 모멘트 골조와 다른 하중 전달 메커니즘을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 중첩된 구조 부재 효과와 접합부의 거동 특성을 고려하여 총 4개의 구조해석 모델을 수립하였으며, 수립된 해석 모델을 이용하여 3층과 5층 표본 건물에 대한 비선형 정적 해석을 수행하였다. 표본 건물은 중첩된 구조 부재와 접합부의 이력 거동에 대한 모델링 방법에 따라 강성 및 강도의 차이가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 중첩된 구조 부재를 완전 합성, 모듈 간 접합부를 강접합으로 고려하여 설계된 모듈러 구조물은 횡 강성 및 강도가 과대 평가되는 것으로 나타났다. 뿐만 아니라 해석 결과를 통해 3층 이상의 모듈러 구조물은 철골 모멘트 저항골조와 비교하여 상대적으로 적은 초과 강도를 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있다.
