In this paper the stochastic analysis of semi-infinite domain is presented using the weighted integral method, which is expanded to include the infinite finite elements. The semi-infinite domain can be thought as to have more uncertainties than the ordinary finite domain in material constants, which shows the needs of and the importance of the stochastic finite element analysis. The Bettess's infinite element is adopted with the theoretical decomposition of the strain matrix to calculate the deviatoric stiffness of the semi-infinite domains. The calculated value of mean and the covariance of the displacement are revealed to be larger than those given by the finite domain assumptions giving the rational results which should be considered in the design of structures on semi-infinite domains.

A variational formulation for plane elasticity problems is derived based on an isogeometric approach. The isogeometric analysis is an emerging methodology such that the basis functions in analysis domain arc generated directly from NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) geometry. Thus. the solution space can be represented in terms of the same functions to represent the geometry. The coefficients of basis functions or the control variables play the role of degrees-of-freedom. Furthermore, due to h-. p-, and k-refinement schemes, the high order geometric features can be described exactly and easily without tedious re-meshing process. The isogeometric sensitivity analysis method enables us to analyze arbitrarily shaped structures without re-meshing. Also, it provides a precise construction method of finite element model to exactly represent geometry using B-spline base functions in CAD geometric modeling. To obtain precise shape sensitivity, the normal and curvature of boundary should be taken into account in the shape sensitivity expressions. However, in conventional finite element methods, the normal information is inaccurate and the curvature is generally missing due to the use of linear interpolation functions. A continuum-based adjoint sensitivity analysis method using the isogeometric approach is derived for the plane elasticity problems. The conventional shape optimization using the finite element method has some difficulties in the parameterization of boundary. In isogeometric analysis, however, the geometric properties arc already embedded in the B-spline shape functions and control points. The perturbation of control points in isogeometric analysis automatically results in shape changes. Using the conventional finite clement method, the inter-element continuity of the design space is not guaranteed so that the normal vector and curvature arc not accurate enough. On tile other hand, in isogeometric analysis, these values arc continuous over the whole design space so that accurate shape sensitivity can be obtained. Through numerical examples, the developed isogeometric sensitivity analysis method is verified to show excellent agreement with finite difference sensitivity.

본 연구에서는 상용 해석프로그램에서 구현하기에 어려움이 있는 지반공학적 문제를 해결하기 위한 쉽고 직관적인 해석 프로그램 개발의 일환으로 계산의 정확도가 상대적으로 높은 요소를 채택한 유한요소법을 정식화 하고 해석과정을 프로그램화 하였다. 개발된 프로그램의 계산과정에 있어서의 신뢰성 확인을 위해 두 가지 예에 대한 해석을 수행하고 결과분석을 해 보았는데 첫 번째 예는 등방구속압이 요소에 작용하는 경우이고 나머지 예는 전단응력이 요소의 측면에 작용하는 경우이다. 유한요소를 구성하는 요소로는 등매개변수 사변형 요소를 채택하였는데 요소내의 변위는 요소의 절점변위와 형상함수로 표현된다. 전체좌표(global coordinate)에 의한 미분계수로 표현되는 변형률을 얻기 위해 자코비언과 자연좌표(natural coordinate)를 이용하는 계산과정을 코딩하였다. 요소의 강성행렬을 정의하는 이중적분식을 수치적분으로 변환시키기 위해 4점 가우스 구적법을 적용하였다. 개발된 프로그램의 계산과정 검증을 위해 등방구속압이 작용하는 요소에 대한 해석을 수행한 결과 요소내의 네 개의 가우스점과 요소 중앙에 대해 계산된 응력값이 등방구속압과 일치됨을 알 수 있었다. 개발된 프로그램의 계산과정 검증을 위해 전단응력이 작용하는 요소에 대한 해석을 수행한 결과 요소내에 발생되는 횡방향응력 및 연직응력이 위치에 따라 변화됨을 알 수 있었으며 외력에 대한 발생응력의 크기 및 분포양상이 합리적임을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, a flexibility-based finite element method considering geometric and material nonlinearities is developed for analyzing steel-concrete frame structures. The stability functions obtained from the exact buckling solution of the beam-column subjected to end moments are used to accurately capture the second-order effects. The proposed method uses the force interpolation functions, including a moment magnification due to the axial force and lateral displacement. Thus, only one element per a physical member can account for the interaction between the bending moment and the axial force in a rational way. The proposed method applies the Newton method based on the load control and uses the secant stiffness method, which is computationally both efficient and stable. According to the evaluation result of this study, the proposed method consistently well predicts the nonlinear inelastic behavior of steel-concrete composite frames and gives good efficiency.

본 논문에서는 등기하 해석법을 이용하여 평면 탄성문제의 변분식을 유도하였다. 등기하 해석법은 새로이 부각되고 있는 해석법으로서 기저 함수가 NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) 로부터 직접 생성되므로 해 공간은 CAD 모델을 구성하는 함수로써 표현된다. 또한 CAD 모델의 B-Spline 기저 함수를 직접 사용하므로 기하학적으로 엄밀한 형상을 표현할 수 있고 요소망의 재구성 없이 해석모델을 정밀화(Refinement)할 수 있는 강점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 확장하여 연속체 기반의 애드조인트 설계 민감도 해석법을 사용하는 등기하 설계민감도 해석법을 유도하였다. 기존의 유한요소 기반형상 최적설계는 형상의 매개화에 어려움을 겪었으나 등기하 기반 최적설계에서는 기하학적 정보가 이미 B-spline 기저함수와 조정점에 포함되어 있으므로 이러한 어려움을 피할 수 있는 잠재력을 가지고 있다. 몇몇 수치 예제를 통해서 등기하 해석법을 사용한 설계 민감도 해석을 수행하였으며 유한차분 민감도와 비교하여 정확성을 확인하였다.

In order to take account of the statistical properties of random variables used in the structural analysis, the conventional approach usually adopts the safety factor based on past experiences for the qualitative assessment of structural safety problem. Recently, new approach based on the probabilistic concept has been applied to the assessment of structural safety in order to circumvent the difficulties of the conventional approach in choosing the appropriate safety factor. Thus, computer program called "Probabilistic finite element method" is developed by incorporation the probabilistic concept into the conventional matrix method in order to investigate the effects of the random variables on the final output of the structural analysis. From the comparison of some examples, it can be concluded that the PFEM developed in this study deals with consistently with the uncertainty of random variables and provides the rational tool for the assessment of structural safety of plane frame.

Recently, the underground reinforced concrete(RC) box structures have been increasingly built in Korea. In such structures, the heat of hydration may cause serious cracking problems. The RC box structures are classified in this category that needs much attention to control the hydration heat during construction, which causes the restraining effects on the boundaries. The purpose of the present study is to develop the rational construction method to control the thermal cracking problem of the box structures. In this study, the causes and mechanism of thermal cracking according to construction stages in the RC box structures are thoroughly analyzed. The major influencing variables are studied through the finite element analysis which affect the thermal cracking of RC box structures. The research results of the present study can be efficiently used for the control of cracking of box structures during construction stages.

This paper newly proposes a mesh regularization method for the enhancement of the efficiency in sheet metal forming analysis. The regularization method searches for distorted elements with appropriate searching criteria and constructs patches including the elements to be modified. Each patch is then extended to a three-dimensional surface in order to obtain the information of the continuous coordinates. In constructing the surface enclosing each patch, NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) surface is employed to describe a three-dimensional free surface. On the basis of the constructed surface, each node is properly arranged to form unit elements as close as to a square. The analysis results with the proposed method are compared to the results from the direct forming analysis without mesh regularization in order to confirm the validity of the method.

On the basis of the constructed surface, each node is properly arranged to form unit elements as close as to a square. The state variables calculated from its original mesh geometry are mapped into the new mesh geometry for the next stage or incremental step of a forming analysis. The analysis results with the proposed method are compared to the results from the direct forming analysis without mesh regularization in order to confirm the validity of the method.
