Steel brace is a popular option among seismic rehabilitation methods for school buildings, but it has a weakness in that the section area must be large enough to prevent buckling, so stiffness and strength are highly increased locally, and foundation reinforcing is required. On the contrary, BRB has strength that the steel core may be negligible since buckling is restrained, so the increase of stiffness and strength is insignificant, and foundation reinforcing may not be required. This study compared the effectiveness of both reinforcing methods for the seismic performance of school buildings by conducting both pushover and nonlinear dynamic analyses. Steel brace and BRB reinforcing may not be satisfied by nonlinear dynamic analysis, even by pushover analysis. This result is due to the school buildings' low lateral resistance and high column shear strength ratio. Suppose BRB can be regarded as a general rehabilitation method. In that case, BRB reinforcing is a favorable and economical option for school buildings with low column shear strength ratio since it can better satisfy performance objectives than steel brace by pushover analysis with a small steel core and no foundation reinforcing.

Restraints of Branch Lines are used as earthquake-resistant support devices for fire-fighting pipes along with sway brace devices. The central types are aligned and fixed in a straight line with center of the pipe, but the eccentric types are fixed to on side of the pipe, so a bending moment occurs. In this study, three specimens each of central type and eccentric type were installed at an angle of 45° from the vertical and a monotonic compression load of 1340N was applied. All central type samples satisfied 17.8mm of the allowable displacement, but all eccentric type samples failed to meet the target load and buckled. Therefore, when considering the performance of eccentric type restraints, both compressive load and bending moment must be considered. Even through material mechanics calculations, the yield stress of eccentric type - 3/8 inch all threaded steel bolt - exceeds 320Mpa of the allowable stress. A experiment standards need to be established for eccentric type restraints.

In this study, a prefabricated buckling brace (PF-BRB) was proposed, and a test specimen was manufactured based on the design formula for the initial shape and structural performance tests were performed. As a result of the experiment, all standard performance requirements presented by KDS 41 17 00 and MOE 2021 were satisfied before and after replacement of the reinforcement module, and no fracture of the joint module occurred. As a result of the incremental load test, the physical properties showed a significant difference in the stiffness ratio after yielding under the compressive load of the envelope according to the experimental results. It is judged necessary to further analyze the physical properties according to the experimental results through finite element analysis in the future.

본 논문에서는 인장 좌굴 현상을 소개하고 이를 이용한 음의 포아송 효과를 가지는 구조물에 대한 분석을 다룬다. 일반적으로 널리 알려진 좌굴은 압축하중 하에서의 안정성 문제임에 반하여, 인장 좌굴은 인장에 의해 국소적으로 압축력이 생겨 발생하는 좌굴이다. 고전적인 좌굴에 비하여 비교적 최근의 연구이기 때문에 상대적으로 잘 알려지지 않았다. 이에 인장 좌굴 현상을 에너지 관점에서 고 찰하고, 해석을 위하여 비틀림 스프링을 가지는 비선형 트러스 유한요소의 정식화를 수행하였다. 비선형해석을 통해 후좌굴 거동을 분석하고 비틀림 스프링이 주요 인자임을 확인하였다. 이러한 후좌굴 거동은 음의 포아송 비를 가지는 구조물에 적용할 수 있으며, 기 계적 스위치 등의 장치에 적용할 가능성을 보였다. 얻어진 결과들의 정확성 확인을 위하여 해석해와 상용 유한요소해석 결과들과 비 교하여, 개발된 유한요소 모델이 기초 설계에 유용함을 보였다.

이 논문에서는 내구성이 우수한 것으로 알려져 있는 펄트루젼 FRP의 습도 노출 및 동결 융해 영향을 검토하고, 이에 따른 국부좌굴강도 영향을 검토하기 위한 해석적 연구를 수행하였다. FRP는 일반적으로 내구성이 우수하다고 알려져 있기 때문 에, 해양 구조물 등 습윤환경에서 적용하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 특히 구조용 부재로 제작되는 펄트루젼 FRP 부재는 하절기와 동절기의 온도변화에 노출되기 때문에 이에 대한 검토가 필요하다. 펄트루젼 FRP의 습도 노출 및 동결 융해 영향은 기존 연구의 실험 결과를 참고하였으며, 국부좌굴강도는 정밀해법을 통해 영향을 검토하였다. 검토 결과 펄트루젼 FRP 는 습도노출 및 동결융해의 영향으로 인해 최대 약 20%의 인장강도 및 탄성계수 변화를 나타내었으나, 국부좌굴강도는 약 3% 로 그 영향이 상대적으로 작은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 온도이력 및 습윤환경에서도 펄트루젼 FRP는 국부좌굴강도의 큰 변화 를 나타내지 않고 높은 내구성을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In the case of a school building, even though it is a regular structure in terms of plan shape, if the masonry infill wall acts as a lateral load resisting element, it can be determined as a torsionally irregular building. As a result, the strength and ductility of the structure are reduced, which may cause additional earthquake damage to the structure. Therefore, in this study, a structure similar to a school building with torsional irregularity was selected as an example structure and the damping performance of the PC-BRB was analyzed by adjusting the eccentricity according to the amount of masonry infilled wall. As a result of nonlinear dynamic analysis after seismic reinforcement, the torsional irregularity of each floor was reduced compared to before reinforcement, and the beams and column members of the collapse level satisfied the performance level due to the reduction of shear force and the reinforcement of stiffness. The energy dissipation of PC-BRB was similar in the REC-10 ~ REC-20 analytical models with an eccentricity of 20% or less. REC-25 with an eccentricity of 25% was the largest, and it is judged that it is effective to combine and apply PC-BRB when it has an eccentricity of 25% or more to control the torsional behavior.

Timber structures are susceptible to moisture, contamination, and pest infestation, which can compromise their integrity and pose a significant fire hazard. Despite these drawbacks, timber's lightweight properties, eco-friendliness, and alignment with current architectural trends emphasizing sustainability make it an attractive option for construction. Moreover, timber structures offer economic benefits and provide a natural aesthetic that regulates building temperature and humidity. In recent years, timber domes have gained popularity due to their high recyclability, lightness, and improved fire resistance. Researchers are exploring hybrid timber and steel domes to enhance stability and rigidity. However, shallow dome structures still face challenges related to structural instability. This study investigates stability problems associated with timber domes, the behavior of timber and steel hybrid domes, and the impact of timber member positioning on dome stability and critical load levels. The paper analyzes unstable buckling in single-layer lattice domes using an incremental analysis method. The critical buckling load of the domes is examined based on the arrangement of timber members in the inclined and horizontal directions. The analysis shows that nodal snapping is observed in the case of a concentrated load, whereas snap-back is also observed in the case of a uniform load. Furthermore, the use of inclined timber and horizontal steel members in the lattice dome design provides adequate stability.

A timber lattice roof, which has around 30m span, was constructed. In order to figure out the realistic buckling load level, the structural analysis of this roof structure was performed especially by stiffness of connection with various asymmetric snow load. Due to the characteristics of application of snow load, the load combinations of snow should be considered not only global area but also local part so that the critical buckling load could be observed as easy as possible. Geometrical imperfection was simulated to consider inaccurate shape of structure. And then nonlinear analysis were performed. Finally, this paper could investigate that the asymmetric snow load with the lower level stiffness of connection decreased the level of buckling load significantly.

Buckling Restrained Braces can not only express the strength considered at the time of design, but also reduce the seismic load by energy dissipation according to the plastic behavior after yield deformation of the steel core. The physical characteristics and damping effect may be different according to the buckling prevention method of the steel core by the lateral restraint element. Accordingly, in this study, To compare hysteresis characteristics, Specimen(BRB-C) filled with mortar, specimen(BRB-R) combined with a buckling restraint ring and Specimen(BRB-EP) filled with engineering plastics was fabricated, and a cyclic loading test was performed. As a result of the cyclic loading test, the maximum compressive strength, cumulative energy dissipation and ductility of each test specimen was similar. But in case of the cumulative energy dissipation and ductility, BRB-C filled with the mortar specimen showed the lowest. This is considered to be because the gap between the steel core and the reinforcing material for plastic deformation was not uniformly formed by pouring mortar around the core part.

최근, 구조설계 기준 및 평가방법의 전문화로 인하여, 선급 규칙의 통합화가 이뤄졌었다. 그 좋은 일례가 국제공통규칙(CSR, Common Structural Rule)이다. 그러나, 종강도 하중이 크게 작용하는 화물창 구역에만 국한하여 세부규정이 제시되어 있고, 선수와 선미부 구조에는 별다른 평가 지침이 없다. 언급한 구역의 구조설계는 조선사의 설계 경험에 의존하여 진행하고 있으며, 선급에서도 명확한 기준 이 없으므로 구조 손상 문제가 발생하더라도 근본적인 원인을 파악하기가 힘들다. 본 연구에서는 선미부에 주로 발생하고 있는 좌굴 손 상의 대표적인 사례에 대한 근본적인 원인을 파악하기 위한 엔지니어링 기반의 해법을 제시하였다. 유한요소해석 모델링 기반 구조 강도 검증을 위하여, 하중 조건, 경계조건, 모델링 방법 그리고 평가 기준에 대한 합리적인 해법을 제시하였다. 선미부에 작용하는 휨 모멘트에 의하여 높이 방향으로 압축하중에 의해서 좌굴이 발생할 가능성이 있으며, 좌굴 강성 증가를 위하여 판 두께 증가 혹은 수직 보강재의 추 가가 필요하다. 앞으로도 이 결과는 유사 운반선의 선미부 구조 강도 검토 시 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, the instability of the domed spatial truss structure using wood and the characteristics of the buckling critical load were studied. Hexagonal space truss was adopted as the model to be analyzed, and two boundary conditions were considered. In the first case, the deformation of the inclined member is only considered, and in the second case, the deformation of the horizontal member is also considered. The materials of the model adopted in this paper are steel and timbers, and the considered timbers are spruce, pine, and larch. Here, the inelastic properties of the material are not considered. The instability of the target structure was observed through non-linear incremental analysis, and the buckling critical load was calculated through the singularities and eigenvalues of the tangential stiffness matrix at each incremental step. From the analysis results, in the example of the boundary condition considering only the inclined member, the critical buckling load was lower when using timber than when using steel, and the critical buckling load was determined according to the modulus of elasticity of timber. In the case of boundary conditions considering the effect of the horizontal member, using a mixture of steel and timber case had a lower buckling critical load than the steel case. But, the result showed that it was more effective in structural stability than only timber was used.

This study is conducted to verify the seismic reinforcement effects of internally inserted buckling-restrained braces supported laterally by buckling-restrained rings for the seismic reinforcement of existing reinforced concrete buildings with non-seismic details. First, to evaluate the performance of KDS, the hysteretic characteristics of buckling-restrained braces are verified, and it is discovered that they satisfy the conformance criteria of the displacement-dependent damping device. Three full-scale, two-story reinforced concrete framework specimens are prepared to verify the seismic reinforcement effects, and the proposed buckling-restrained braces are bolstered with single diagonal and V-shaped braces to be compared with non-reinforced specimens. By performing a comparison with non-reinforced specimens that present intensive shear cracks at the bottom of first-floor columns, it is revealed that the maximum load and energy dissipation of specimens reinforced with the proposed buckling restrained braces, in which the structural damage extends evenly throughout the system, are approximately 4 and 6.2 times higher, respectively, which proves the effectiveness of the proposed seismic reinforcement method.

해저 석유와 가스 탐사가 점점 더 깊은 수심으로 진행되고 있으며, 해저 파이프라인은 고압 및 고온 조건에서 작동하는 것이 일반적이다. 온도 및 압력 차이로 인하여 파이프 축 방향 힘이 축적되는 현상이 있다. 이러한 현상은 파이프라인을 구속하는 해저면 효과 때문에 파이프라인은 횡 좌굴이 발생하게 된다. 온도가 증가하는 경우 축 방향의 압축 하중이 가해지며 이 하중이 임계 수준에 도달하면 파이프가 수직방향으로 움직이게 된다. 또는 파이프라인의 구조적 완전성을 위태롭게 할 수 있는 횡 방향 좌굴이 발생하는 상황에서, 작 동 중 파이프라인의 구조적 안전함을 보장하기 위해 파이프라인의 상세 구조 강도평가가 수행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 해저면의 마찰 효과 및 재료의 열 수축/팽창을 고려한 비선형 구조해석을 상용 유한요소해석 프로그램인 ANSYS를 활용하여 검토하였으며, 외부충격에 의한 횡 방향 좌굴 안전성을 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통하여 수치 해석적 단순화된 분석 모델을 통하여 해저면의 효과를 고려한 조 건에서의 실제 파이프라인의 붕괴 조건을 예측할 수 있다.
