This paper presents an analytical procedure for the time-dependent analysis of the multi-story prestressed concrete structure under the construction stage. To account for the actual structural behavior, the procedure considers the effects due to the construction interval and the time-dependent losses of prestress at every construction step on the entire structural response. A numerical study is performed to demonstrate the general validity of the approach and to quantitatively evaluate the effects resulted from the time-dependent behaviors during construction. Recommendations and conclusions are developed by comparisons with structural responses using the present and conventional methods of analysis. The comparative results show that both effects of sequential construction and time-dependent prestress losses should be considered for the construction stage analysis.

The Schlo'gl model with the first order transition for a photochemical reaction is considered to study the dynamic behaviors in the neighborhood of the Gaussian white noise by obtaining the explicit results of the time-dependent variance and time correlation function with the aid of approximate methods based on the stationary properties of the system. Then, we discuss the effect of external noise strength on the stability of the model at steady states in detail.

Cantilever structures demonstrate diverse nonlocal effects, resulting in either stiffness hardening or dynamic softening behaviors, as various studies have indicated. This research delves into the free and forced vibration analysis of rotating nanoscale cylindrical beams and tubes under external dynamic stress, aiming to thoroughly explore the nonlocal impact from both angles. Utilizing Euler-Bernoulli and Reddy beam theories, in conjunction with higher-order tube theory and Hamilton's principle, nonlocal governing equations are derived with precise boundary conditions for both local and nonlocal behaviors. The study specifically examines two-dimensional functionally graded materials (2D-FGM), characterized by axially functionally graded (AFG) and radial porosity distributions. The resulting partial differential equations are solved using the generalized differential quadrature element method (GDQEM) and Newmark-beta procedures to acquire time-dependent results. This investigation underscores the significant influence of boundary conditions when nonlocal forces act on cantilever structures.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the quality of caregiver's behaviors and children's social behaviors. the quality of caregiver's behaviors were observed during indoor free-play time in the 8 classes at 7 child care centers. Forty children were selected from two classes of high quality caregivers and 2 of low quality caregivers based on the quality of caregiver's behaviors. Children's social behaviors were measured in terms of social competence, social maladjustment, and social interaction. results of the study were as follows: First, children of high quality caregivers were more socially competent than of low quality caregivers. second, there were no significant differences in social maladjustemnt according to the quality of caregiver's behavior. Third, children of high quality caregivers showed more positive and dependent interaction with caregivers high quality caregivers showed more positive and depedndent interaction with caregivers than of low quality teachers. Also, children of high quality caregivers engaged less in aimless behavior and negative interaction with peers than of low quality caregivers.

Time dependent deflections of double composite box girders are investigated based on the on going laboratory experiments scheduled for 3months long. Two of 2-span double composite box girders with 2.5m each span length are cast and time dependent behaviors are measured using 30 strain gages and 2 LVDTs after 5 days' curing. The measured experimental results are compared with the numerical predictions performed based on the one dimensional finite element method adopting beam element. The FEM formulation adopts the time dependent concrete constitutive model which is derived in an incremental format by expanding the total form of stress-strain relation by the first order Taylor series with respect to the reference time. A good agreement between the measured and predicted results are observed and the effects of the bottom concrete placed at the negative moment region of the bridge girder are discussed.

In the case of reinforced concrete structures, the knowledge of load transfer in the long-term behavior analysis considering construction sequence is very important. Even though long-term behavior of concrete structures has been widely studied, the studies on the time-dependent axial force variation of shore have been scarce to date. In order to investigate the shore behaviors under actual construction conditions, a three-story test frame was constructed on a construction site. The entire construction schedule for the test frame was made to follow the schedule of an actual three-story frame. To analyze the data collected from the test frame, an analysis method based on the Winkler foundation model was developed. This analysis method accurately Predicts the time-dependent behavior of shore. The analysis results coincide well with those obtained by the Midas GENw program

Time effect on the deformation and strength characteristics of geogrid reinforced sand retaining wall has become an important issue in geotechnical and transportation engineering. Three physical model tests on geogrid reinforced sand retaining walls performed under various loading conditions were simulated to study their rate-dependent behaviors, using the presented nonlinear finite element method (FEM) analysis procedure. This FEM was based on the dynamic relaxation method and return mapping scheme, in which the combined effects of the rate-dependent behaviors of both the backfill soil and the geosynthetic reinforcement have been included. The rate-dependent behaviors of sands and geogrids should be attributed to the viscous property of materials, which can be described by the unified three-component elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model. By comparing the FEM simulations and the test results, it can be found that the present FEM was able to be successfully extended to the boundary value problems of geosynthetic reinforced soil retaining walls. The deformation and strength characteristics of the geogrid reinforced sand retaining walls can be well reproduced. Loading rate effect, the trends of jump in footing pressure upon the step-changes in the loading rate, occurred not only on sands and geogrids but also on geogrid reinforced sands retaining walls. The lateral earth pressure distributions against the back of retaining wall, the local tensile force in the geogrid arranged in the retaining wall and the local stresses beneath the footing under various loading conditions can also be predicted well in the FEM simulations.

Structure behaviors resulting from an earthquake are experimentally simulated mainly through a shaking table test. As for large-scale structures, however, size effects over a miniature may make it difficult to assess actual behaviors properly. To address this problem, research on the hybrid simulation is being conducted actively. This method is to implement numerical analysis on framework members that affect the general behavior of the structure dominantly through an actual scale experiment and on the rest parts by applying the substructuring technique. However, existing studies on hybrid simulation focus mainly on Slow experimental methods, which are disadvantageous in that it is unable to assess behaviors close to the actual level if material properties change depending on the speed or the influence of inertial force is significant. The present study aims to establish a Real-time hybrid simulation system capable of excitation based on the actual time history and to verify its performance and applicability. The hybrid simulation system built up in this study utilizes the ATS Compensator system, CR integrator, etc. in order to make the target displacement the same with the measured displacement on the basis of MATLAB/Simulink. The target structure was a 2-span bridge and an RC pier to support it was produced as an experimental model in order for the shaking table test and Slow and Real-time hybrid simulations. Behaviors that result from the earthquake of El Centro were examined, and the results were analyzed comparatively. In comparison with the results of the shaking table test, the Real-time hybrid simulation produced more similar maximum displacement and vibration behaviors than the Slow hybrid simulation. Hence, it is thought that the Real-time hybrid simulation proposed in this study can be utilized usefully in seismic capacity assessment of structural systems such as RC pier that are highly non-linear and time-dependent.

The fatigue crack propagation tests were performed in triangular and holding-time stress waveforms at $650^{\circ}C$. The behavior of fatigue crack propagation was investigated according to waveform. The analysis of high temperature fatigue crack propagation by the stress intensity factor range ${\Delta}K$, elastic fracture mechanics parameter, was not available. The behaviors of high temperature fatigue crack propagation by the J-integral(${\Delta}J_f$, J' and ${\Delta}J_c$), elasto-plastic fracture mechanics parameter, were investigated in a number of stress waveforms. The fast-fast waveform exhibited cycle-dependent(fatigue type), the slow-fast and the hold time with 500sec waveforms appear to be time-dependent(creep type) and the fast-slow and the hold time with 5, 25sec waveforms exhibited conbined behavior of both types(fatigue-creep conbined type).
