This paper presents an investigation on the free vibration characteristics of functionally graded nanocomposite double-beams reinforced by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The double-beams coupled by an interlayer spring, resting on the elastic foundation with a linear layer and shear layer, and is simply supported in thermal environments. The SWCNTs gradient distributed in the thickness direction of the beam forms different reinforcement patterns. The materials properties of the functionally graded carbon nanotube-reinforced composites (FG-CNTRC) are estimated by rule of mixture. The first order shear deformation theory and Euler-Lagrange variational principle are employed to derive the motion equations incorporating the thermal effects. The vibration characteristics under several patterns of reinforcement are presented and discussed. We conducted a series of studies aimed at revealing the effects of the spring stiffness, environment temperature, thickness ratios and carbon nanotube volume fraction on the nature frequency.

Dynamic loading of structures often causes excursions of stresses well into the inelastic range and the influence of geometric changes on the dynamic response is also significant in many cases. Therefore, both material and geometric nonlinearity effects should be considered in case that a dynamic load acts on the structure. For developing a program to analyze the dynamic response of an axisymmetric shell in this study, the material nonlinearity effect on the dynamic response was formulated by the elasto-viscoplastic model highly corresponding to the real behavior of the material. Also, the geometrically nonlinear behavior is taken into account using a total Lagrangian coordinate system, and the equilibrium equation of motion was numerically solved by a central difference scheme. A complete finite element program has been developed and the results obtained by it are compared with those in the references 1 and 2. The results are in good agreement with each other. As a case study of its application, the developed program was applied to a dynamic response analysis of a nuclear reinforced concrete containment structure. The results obtained from the' numerical examples are summarized as follows : 1. The dynamic magnification factor of the displacement and the stress were unrelated with the concrete strength. 2. As shown by the results that the displacement dynamic magnification factor were form 1.7 to 2.3 and the stress dynamic magnification factor from 1.8 to 2.5, the dynamic magnification factor of stress were larger than that of displacement. 3. The dynamic magnification factor of stress on the exterior surface was larger than that on the interior surface of the structure.

Piles of a bridge pier are connected with a column through a pile cap(footing). Behavior of the pile foundation can be different according to the connection method between piles and the pile cap. This difference causes a change of the design method. Connection methods between pile heads and the pile cap are divided into two groups ; rigid connections and hinge connections. KHBDC(Korea Highway Bridge Design Code) has specified to use rigid connection method for the highway bridge. In the rigid connection method, maximum bending moment of a pile occurs at the pile head and this helps the pile to prevent the excessive displacement. Rigid methods are also good to improve the seismic performance. However some specifications prescribe that conservative results through investigations for both the fixed-head condition and the free-head condition should be reflected in the design. This statement may induce an over-estimated design for the bridge which have very good quality structures with casing covered drilled shafts and the PC-house contained pile cap. Because the assumption of free-head conditions (hinge connections) are unreal for the elevated pile cap system with multiple piles of the long span sea-crossing bridges. On the other hand, elastic displacement method to evaluate the pile reactions under the pile cap is not suitable for this type of bridges due to impractical assumptions. So, full modeling techniques which analyze the superstructure and the substructure simultaneously should be performed. Loads and stress state of the very large diameter drilled shaft and the pile cap for Incheon Bridge which will the longest bridge in Korea were investigated through the full modeling for rigid connection conditions.

The current work, present dynamic analysis of the FG-sandwich plate seated on elastic foundation with various kinds of support using refined shear deformation theory. The present analytical model is simplified which the unknowns number are reduced. The zero-shear stresses at the free surfaces of the FG-sandwich plate are ensured without introducing any correction factors. The four equations of motion are determined via Hamilton's principle and solved by Galerkin's approach for FG-sandwich plate with three kinds of the support. The proposed analytical model is verified by comparing the results with those obtained by other theories existing in the literature. The parametric studies are presented to detect the various parameters influencing the fundamental frequencies of the symmetric and non-symmetric FG-sandwich plate with various boundary conditions.

In this paper, based on the CPT, motion equations for a sandwich plate containing a core and two integrated face-sheets have derived. The structure rests on the Visco-Pasternak foundation, which includes normal and shear modules. The piezo-magnetic core is made of CoFe₂O₄ and also is subjected to 3D magnetic potential. Two face sheets at top and bottom of the core are under electrical fields. Also, in order to obtain more accuracy, the effect of flexoelectricity has took into account at face sheets' relations in this work. Flexoelectricity is a property of all insulators whereby they polarize when subject to an inhomogeneous deformation. This property plays a crucial role in small-scale rather than macro scale. Employing CPT, Hamilton's principle, flexoelectricity considerations, the governing equations are derived and then solved analytically. By present work a detailed numerical study is obtained based on Piezoelectricity, Flexoelectricity and modified couple stress theories to indicate the significant effect of length scale parameter, shear correction factor, aspect and thickness ratios and boundary conditions on natural frequency of sandwich plates. Also, the figures show that there is an excellent agreement between present study and previous researches. These finding can be used for automotive industries, aircrafts, marine vessels and building industries.

The current paper discusses the dynamic and stability responses of cross-ply composite laminated plates by employing a refined quasi-3D trigonometric shear deformation theory. The proposed theory takes into consideration shear deformation and thickness stretching by a trigonometric variation of in-plane and transverse displacements through the plate thickness and assures the vanished shear stresses conditions on the upper and lower surfaces of the plate. The strong point of the new formulation is that the displacements field contains only 4 unknowns, which is less than the other shear deformation theories. In addition, the present model considers the thickness extension effects (ε_z≠0). The presence of the Winkler-Pasternak elastic base is included in the mathematical formulation. The Hamilton's principle is utilized in order to derive the four differentials' equations of motion, which are solved via Navier's technique of simply supported structures. The accuracy of the present 3-D theory is demonstrated by comparing fundamental frequencies and critical buckling loads numerical results with those provided using other models available in the open literature.

Dynamic loading of structures often causes excursions of stresses well into the inelastic range, and the influence of the geometric changes on the dynamic response is also significant in many cases. Therefore, both material and geometric nonlinearity effects should be considered in case that a dynamic load acts on the structure. A structure in a nuclear power plant is a structure of importance which puts emphasis on safety. A nuclear container is a pressure vessel subject to internal pressure and this structure is constructed by a reinforced concrete or a pre-stressed concrete. In this study, the material nonlinearity effect on the dynamic response is formulated by the elasto-viscoplastic model highly corresponding to the real behavior of the material. Also, the geometrically nonlinear behavior is taken into account using a total Lagrangian coordinate system, and the equilibrium equation of motion is numerically solved by a central difference scheme. The constitutive relation of concrete is modeled according to a Drucker-Prager yield criterion in compression. The reinforcing bars are modeled by a smeared layer at the location of reinforcements, and the steel layer model under Von Mises yield criteria is adopted to represent an elastic-plastic behavior. To investigate the dynamic response of a nuclear reinforced concrete containment structure, the steel-ratios of 0, 3, 5 and 10 percent, are considered. The results obtained from the analysis of an example were summarized as follows 1. As the steel-ratio increases, the amplitude and the period of the vertical displacements in apex of dome decreased. The Dynamic Magnification Factor(DMF) was some larger than that of the structure without steel. However, the regular trend was not found in the values of DMF. 2. The dynamic response of the vertical displacement and the radial displacement in the dome-wall junction were shown that the period of displacement in initial step decreased with the steel-ratio increases. Especially, the effect of the steel on the dynamic response of radial displacement disapeared almost. The values of DMF were 1.94, 2.5, 2.62 and 2.66, and the values increased with the steel-ratio. 3. The characteristics of the dynamic response of radial displacement in the mid-wall were similar to that of dome-wall junction. The values of DMF were 1.91, 2.11, 2.13 and 2.18, and the values increased with the steel-ratio. 4. The amplitude and the period of the hoop-stresses in the dome, the dome-wall junction, and the mid-wall were shown the decreased trend with the steel-ratio. The values of DMF were some larger than those of the structure without steel. However, the regular trend was not found in the values of DMF.

전 세계적으로 많은 수의 크고 작은 댐이 사용되고 있으나, 콘크리트 댐의 안전성 평가에 있어서 댐 내에 필연적으로 존재하는 균열을 함께 고려한 실질적 해석은 아직 미진한 실정이다. 따라서 향후 건설될 댐에 대해서는 설계 단계에서부터 이러한 파괴역학적 해석이 뒷받침되어야 댐의 안전성 확보에 매우 유리하다고 볼 수 있다. 특히 댐 제체와 지반이 접하는 경계면은 많은 균열 발생이 예상되는 영역으로써 이 균열 사이에 작용하는 양압력의 모델링은 중력식 콘크리트 댐 해석시 매우 중요한 요소이다. 즉, 콘크리트 댐의 균열 안정성 평가는 정확한 양압력의 모델링이 선행되어야 올바른 예측이 가능하다. 댐에 있어서 양압력의 취급은 단지 댐 체제 안정성 평가를 위한 전형적인 수계산 방법으로 널리 사용되고 있으나, 양압력에 대한 유한요소 모델링 방법은 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 중력식 콘크리트 댐과 지반이 접하는 부분에 발생된 균열에 양압력이 작용할 경우, 선형탄성파괴역학의 관점에서 접근하여 양압력이 응력확대계수에 미치는 영향을 비교 분석하였다. 양압력의 분포형상은 현재 등분포로 가정한 간략해석법으로 수행되고 있으나 최근의 연구 결과에 의하면 양압력 분포형상이 균열면에 따라 변화함을 보이고 있어, 본 연구에서는 수압의 형태를 등분포 형상 외에 삼각형 분포, 제형분포 및 포물선 분포 형상에 대해서도 각각 고려하여 각 분포형상별 응력확대계수를 평가하였다. 응력확대계수의 계산은 일반 8절점 등매개변수요소를 사용한 표면적분법을 사용하였으며, 자중의 영향 및 월류 수압의 영향도 함께 고려하여 해석 결과를 나타내었다.

사면을 포함한 경사지에 설치된 송전탑, 교각, 고층빌딩 등을 지지하는 말뚝은 풍하중, 지진, 차량 등에 의한 수평하중을 고려하여 설계되어야 한다. 이러한 사면이나 경사지에 설치된 수평하중을 받는 말뚝은 편평한 지반에 비하여, 수평지지력이 감소하기 때문이다. 그러므로 이러한 구조물은 일반적으로 강성이 높고, 대구경의 기초인 피어기초가 사용된다. 수평하중을 받는 피어기초는 일반적으로 장대말뚝과 다른 거동을 한다. 즉, 수평하중에 의하여 말뚝 자체의 회전이 발생하고, 그 회전의 중심점 상부의 사면측의 수동토압에 의존하여 지반파괴가 발생한다는 측면에서 짧은 강성 말뚝과 유사한 거동을 한다. 본 논문은 모래사면의 언덕 근처에 설치된 짧은 말뚝의 수평하중의 영향에 대한 실험 및 수치해석 결과를 포함한다. 대부분을 모형실험과 3차원 탄소성 유한요소해석의 비교, 결과를 기술하였다. 먼저, 사면 언덕에서 모형말뚝까지의 거리를 3종류로 구분하여 단항의 모형실험과 군항말뚝의 수평하중 특성을 파악하기 위하여 수평지반과 사면지반(경사 30$^{\circ}$)에 대하여 말뚝중심간의 거리를 각2종류로 모형실험을 실시하였다. 동시에 3차원 탄소성 유한요소법에 의한 수치해석을 통하여 모형실험의 결과와의 비교를 시도하였다. 사용된 모래지반은 배수조건하에서 삼축압축실험으로 재현하였다. 3차원 탄소성 유한요소해석에서 완전탄소성모델의 파괴기준은 Mohr-Coulomb식, 소성 포텐셜은 Drucker-Prage식을 이용한 MC-DP모델을 적용하였다. 연구결과, 3차원탄소성 유한요소법이 사질토 지반에 설치된 짧은 말뚝의 수평거동을 파악하는데 유효하다는 것을 확인하였다.
