The seismic holding behaviors of plate anchor embedded into submerged coarse-grained soils were investigated considering different anchor inclinations. The limit equilibrium method and the Pseudo-Dynamic Approach (PDA) were employed to calculate the inertia force of the soils within the failure rupture. In addition, assuming the permeability of coarse-grained soils was sufficiently large, the coefficient of hydrodynamic force applied on the inclined plate anchor is obtained through adopting the exact potential flow theory. Therefore, the seismic holding resistance was calculated as the combination of the inertia force and the hydrodynamic force within the failure rupture. The failure rupture can be developed due to the uplift loads, which was assumed to be an arc of a circle perpendicular to the anchor and inclines at (π/4 - φ/2). Then, the derived analytical solutions were evaluated by comparing the static breakout factor N_γ to the published experimental and analytical results. The influences of soil and wave properties on the plate anchor holding behavior are reported. Finally, the dynamic anchor holding coefficients N_γd, were reported to illustrate the anchor holding behaviors. Results show that the soil accelerations in x and z directions were both nonlinear. The amplifications of soil accelerations were more severe at lower normalized frequencies (ωH/V) compared to higher normalized frequencies. The coefficient of hydrodynamic force, C, of the plate anchor was found to be almost constant with anchor inclinations. Finally, the seismic anchor holding coefficient oscillated with the oscillation of the inertia force on the plate anchor.

The drift force acting on a freely-floating sphere in water of finite depth is studied within the framework of a linear potential theory. A velocity potential describing fluid motion is determined by distribution pulsating sources and dipoles on the immersed surface of the sphere. Upon knowing values of the potential, hydrodynamic forces are evaluated by integrating pressures over the immersed surface of the sphere. The motion response of the sphere in water of finite depth is obtained by solving the equation of motion. From these results, the drift force on the sphere is evaluated by the momentum theorem, in which a far-field velocity potential is utilized in forms of Kochin function. The drift force coefficient Cdr of a fixed sphere increases monotononically with non-dimensional wave frequency ${\sigma}a$. On the other hand, in freely-floating case, the Cdr has a peak value at ${\sigma}a$ of heave resonance. The magnitude of the drift force coefficient Cdr in the case of finite depth is different form that for deep water, but the general tendency seems to be similar in both cases. It is to note that Cdr is greater than 1.0 when non-dimensional water depth d/a is 1.5 in the case of freely-floating sphere.

혼성제 케이슨에 작용하는 파력의 불확실성을 확률론적으로 해석할 수 있는 MCS 기법을 제시하였다. 수평파력 및 양력에 대한 확률론적 산정모형을 파력 산정에 사용되는 최대파고의 확률적 특성의 함수로 수립하였다. 파력이 극치분포를 따른다는 가정하에 Goda 식으로부터 산정된 수평파력과 양력에 대한 상대파력의 개념으로 파력의 거동특성을 해석하였다. 이중절단형 정규분포를 이용하는 MCS 기법을 이용하여 축척모수와 형상모수의 불확실성을 고려하였다. 최대설계파고의 초과확률에 따라 상대파력의 평균과 분산을 정량적으로 산정하였다. 해석 결과에 의하면 초과확률이 커짐에 따라 수평파력 및 양력에 대한 상대파력의 평균은 일정하게 감소된다. 특히 양력에 대한 상대 파력은 그 평균값이 수평파력의 평균보다 크고 변동계수는 작게 산정되었다. 이는 동일조건의 초과수준에서 양력에 대한 불확실성이 상대적으로 수평파력의 불확실성보다 작다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과는 파력의 불확실성에 대한 통계적 거동특성을 요구하는 신뢰성 설계 등에서 유용하게 이용될 수 있다.

In this study, a spectral fatigue analysis was performed for the topside structure of an offshore floating vessel. The topside structure was idealized using beam elements in the SACS program. The fatigue analysis was carried out considering the wave and wind loads separately. For the wave-induced fatigue damage calculation, motion RAOs calculated from a direct wave load analysis and regular waves with different periods and unit wave heights were utilized. Then, the member end force transfer functions were generated covering all the loading conditions. Stress response transfer functions at each joint were produced using the specified SCFs and member end force transfer functions. fatigue damages were calculated using the obtained stress ranges, S-N curve, wave spectrum, heading probability of each loading condition, and their corresponding occurrences in the wave scatter diagrams. For the wind induced fatigue damage calculation, a dynamic wind spectral fatigue analysis was performed. First, a dynamic natural frequency analysis was performed to generate the structural dynamic characteristics, including the eigenvalues (natural frequencies), eigenvectors (mode shapes), and mass matrix. To adequately represent the dynamic characteristic of the structure, the number of modes was appropriately determined in the lateral direction. Second, a wind spectral fatigue analysis was performed using the mode shapes and mass data obtained from the previous results. In this analysis, the Weibull distribution of the wind speed occurrence, occurrence probability in each direction, damping coefficient, S-N curves, and SCF of each joint were defined and used. In particular, the wind fatigue damages were calculated under the assumption that the stress ranges followed a Rayleigh distribution. The total fatigue damages were calculated from the combination with wind and wave fatigue damages according to the DNV rule.

A floating Oscillating Water Column (OWC) wave energy converter, a Backward Bent Duct Buoy (BBDB), was simulated using a state-of-the-art, two-dimensional, fully-nonlinear Numerical Wave Tank (NWT) technique. The hydrodynamic performance of the floating OWC device was evaluated in the time domain. The acceleration potential method, with a full-updated kernel matrix calculation associated with a mode decomposition scheme, was implemented to obtain accurate estimates of the hydrodynamic force and displacement of a freely floating BBDB. The developed NWT was based on the potential theory and the boundary element method with constant panels on the boundaries. The mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian (MEL) approach was employed to capture the nonlinear free surfaces inside the chamber that interacted with a pneumatic pressure, induced by the time-varying airflow velocity at the air duct. A special viscous damping was applied to the chamber free surface to represent the viscous energy loss due to the BBDB's shape and motions. The viscous damping coefficient was properly selected using a comparison of the experimental data. The calculated surface elevation, inside and outside the chamber, with a tuned viscous damping correlated reasonably well with the experimental data for various incident wave conditions. The conservation of the total wave energy in the computational domain was confirmed over the entire range of wave frequencies.

An improved method is presented to estimate the axial force of a bar member with vibrational measurements based on modified Timoshenko beam theory. Bending stiffness effects, rotational inertia, shear deformation, rotational inertia caused by shear deformation are all taken into account. Axial forces are estimated with certain natural frequency and corresponding mode shape, which are acquired from dynamic tests with five accelerometers. In the paper, modified Timoshenko beam theory is first presented with the inclusion of axial force and rotational inertia effects. Consistent mass and stiffness matrices for the modified Timoshenko beam theory are derived and then used in finite element simulations to investigate force identification accuracy under different boundary conditions and the influence of critical axial force ratio. The deformation coefficient which accounts for rotational inertia effects of the shearing deformation is discussed, and the relationship between the changing wave speed and the frequency is comprehensively examined to improve accuracy of the deformation coefficient. Finally, dynamic tests are conducted in our laboratory to identify progressive axial forces of a steel plate and a truss structure respectively. And the axial forces identified by the proposed method are in good agreement with the forces measured by FBG sensors and strain gauges. A significant advantage of this axial force identification method is that no assumption on boundary conditions is needed and excellent force identification accuracy can be achieved.

관성항과 비선형 항력항을 포함한 직립 슬릿벽에 의한 파의 산란을 고유함수전개법을 사용하여 해석하였다. 슬릿벽에서의 에너지 손실효과를 나타내는 비선형 항력항을 등가 선형화기법으로 선형화시켰다. Yoon et al.(2006)과 Huang(2007)이 제안한 실험식을 통하여 구한 항력계수를 적용한 해석결과는 Kwon et al.(2014)과 Zhu and Chwang(2001)의 수리모형 실험결과와 비교하였고, 서로 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 개발된 해석모델을 이용하여 슬릿벽의 주요 설계변수들인 공극률, 잠긴 깊이, 슬릿 형상, 파랑특성 등을 바꿔가면서 슬릿벽에서의 에너지 손실효과를 평가하였다. 잠긴 깊이에 따라 다소 차이는 있지만 공극률이 0.1보다 작은 값에서 슬릿벽에서의 에너지 손실률이 가장 크게 일어났다. 현재의 해석해는 슬릿벽 방파제에 의한 소파효율을 예측하는데 유용하게 이용될 것이다.

The three-dimensional unsteady compressible Euler equation solver with ALE, CFD code, PAM-FLOW based on FEM method has been applied to analyze the flow field around the high speed train which is entering into a channel. From the present study, the pressure and flow transients were calculated and analyzed. The generation of compression wave was observed ahead of train and the high pressure in the gap between the train and the tunnel was also found due to the blockage effects. It was found that abrupt fluctuation in pressure exists in the region from train nose to shoulder of train corresponding to 10％ of total length of train during tunnel entry. Computed time history of aerodynamic forces of train during tunnel entry show that drag coefficient rapidly rises and saturates at about non-dimensional time 0.31. The total increase of drag coefficient before and after tunnel entry is about 1.1%. Transient profile of lift force shows similar pattern to drag coefficient except abrupt drop after saturation and lift force in the tunnel increases 0.08% more than that before tunnel entry.

본 연구에서는 월파시 해안안벽에 작용하는 지진과 지진해일의 영향에 대하여 한계평형상태해석법을 적용하여 안정성을 검토하였다. 지진해일파력에 대하여 TWOPM-3D를 적용하였으며, 특히 안벽의 뒷채움재를 투과성재료로 가정하여 지진해일파가 월파 후에 안벽배후에 작용하는 파력을 산정하였다. 그리고, 수동상태와 주동상태 조건에서 해안안벽의 안정성에 영향을 주는 요인인 지진해일파고, 뒷채움재의 수위, 수평 수직지진가속도계수, 내부마찰각, 벽마찰각, 간극수압비 등을 변화하여 활동과 전도에 대한 안벽 안전율의 변화특성을 시간에 따라 검토하였다. 이로부터 지진과 지진해일파의 작용하에 지진해일파가 안벽을 월파하는 경우 수동상태에 대한 안전율은 결과적으로 안전율을 증가시키는 요인으로 작용하는 반면, 주동상태에 대하여 결과적으로 안전율을 감소시키는 요인으로 작용함을 확인할 수 있었다.
