This study was evaluate the shear buckling characteristic of sinusoidal corrugated plate. We analyzed the effect on shear buckling about shape parameter based on the design equations proposed as a theoretical method shown in the existing studies. We was performed the eigenvalue analysis about sinusoidal corrugated plate using finite element analysis program. and then, This result was analyzed the shear buckling tendencies and verified the buckling characteristic changes.

This paper aimed at modeling a triangular mesh for triangular grid dome by using improved harmony search algorithm. For this purpose, an optimization process to find a regular triangular mesh on the curved surface was proposed and a program for this was developed. The objective function consisted of the standard deviations of the area and the boundary length of each triangle, and the design variables were regulated by the upper and lower boundary conditions which were calculated depending on the nodal connectivity. Triangular grid dome, which initially had consisted of irregular triangular meshes, was selected as target example. In dome model, its result was very approached to the minimum standard deviation of the area and the boundary length of each triangle.

A cable structures have the advantage that cover a large space without column but it is very sensitive to deal with shape control because of its flexibility. Especially, location of control member and needed elongation of member are important things. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is studied on displacement control technique for pre-stressed cable structures by force method considering order of control.

Most of these studies focused on the strength of girders through analysis and experiment of corrugated steel plates and studies on the optimization of corrugated steel plates are still insufficient. This study developed the weight optimum design using the differential evolution. The optimization program was verified with differential evolution through the numerical analysis examples of simple beams. For this verification, the optimization program using the genetic algorithm that has been studied was compared with the weight optimum graph of the optimization program of differential evolution proposed in this study. As a result, the graphs of these two optimization programs increased similarly. And then, in the graph of changing design variables, the changing web thickness showed a similar trend as the increasing trend of the optimum sectional area.

In the past spatial structures have been significantly developing in the architectural field. Most of all, the single layer grid dome has become very popular, having not only with aesthetic advantages, but also the economic benefit of saving material. Especially, a generation of triangular mesh for the curved surface is one of the important things. Therefore, in this paper, a generation technique to get a equilateral triangle surface of single layer dome is deal with. To solve the problem, the objective function is consist of the standard deviation of triangular element and differential evolution method is adopted to fine a fine triangular gird.

This study investigated characteristics of buckling load and effective buckling length by member rigidity of dome-typed space frame which was sensitive to initial conditions. A critical point and a buckling load were computed by analyzing the eigenvalues and determinants of the tangential stiffness matrix. The hexagonal pyramid model and star dome were selected for the case study in order to examine the nodal buckling and member buckling in accordance with member rigidity.

There is a limit to the representation of finite element analysis modeling of the pure shear of corrugated plate. However, if the shear force is applied to the corrugated plate, the set of appropriate boundary can be obtained to the nearest theory value. In this study compared Shear buckling strength about each boundary condition with the plate shear theory. And then each boundary condition applied to sinusoidal corrugated plate, evaluate convergence of the minimum shear buckling strength of each boundary condition and shear buckling flow was observed through shear buckling mode shape.

In order to realize these weight lightening, structure was used to high strength thin plate. If thin plate structure is used, buckling about compression is happen so we should consider buckling. Commonly, we use the girder with stiffener to prevent shear buckling but if we use corrugated web, it can be the role of stiffener to buckling This study is developed of program about optimum problem using structure design process and real-valued genetic algorithm. For the optimum design, the objective function is defined weight of sinusoidal corrugated web and conduct by optimization. The program is analyzed by example.

A wood-plastic composite member has made major advances in material performance, environment friendly and its production has become currently an important address of research concerned with engineering application of structures. Since the material and production equipment of the wood-plastic composite member are manly depend on the wood contents rate, a combination of compound, production order and so on, an investigation of production order, equipment and basic material characteristics of the unit member in order to used in structures and building is important. In this paper, these characteristics of highly filled extrusion wood-plastic composite member are deal with.

This paper investigated a simple geodesic line search on triangular mesh surface and a modified sub-plane on the surface. A partial adjustment and element redirection of sub-plane of extracted elements series and substituting alternative nodal point were proposed for the geodesic search with modification of sub-plane. This search technique is very simple enough to attain the geodesic line without difficult mathematical or computational method.
