Abstract

The effect of partially restrained(PR) connections and the uncertainties in them on the reliability of steel frames subjected to seismic loading is addressed. A stochastic finite element method(SFEM) is proposed combining the concepts of the response surface method(RSM), the finite element method(FEM), the first-order reliability method (FORM), and the iterative linear interpolation scheme. The behavior of PR connections is captured using moment-relative rotation curves, and is represented by the four-parameter Richard model. For seismic excitation, the loading, unloading, and reloading behavior at PR connections is modeled using moment-relative rotation curves and the Masing rule. The seismic loading is applied in the time domain for realistic representation. The reliability of steel frames in the presence of PR connections is calculated considering all major sources of nonlinearity. The algorithm is clarified with the help of an example.

본 논문은 강 뼈대 구조물의 보-기둥 접합부의 사실적인 상태를 묘사하기 위하여 부분구속 접합부(Partially Restrained (PR) connections)를 고려한 지진하중 상태하의 신뢰성 해석과 접합부 및 그들에 내재된 불확실성이 구조물의 위험도에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구이다. 신뢰성해석을 위하여 응답면기법(Response Surface Method), 유한요소법(Finite Element Method), 일차신뢰도법(First Order Reliability Method), 그리고 반복선형보간 기법(Iterative Linear Interpolation Scheme)을 효과적으로 결합한 추계유한요소법(Stochastic Finite Element Method)을 제안하였다 일반적으로 모멘트-상대회전각 곡선에 의해서 표현되는 보-기둥에 대한 부분구속 접합부(PR connections)의 거동이 본 논문에서는 네 개의 매개변수를 사용하는 리차드 모델(Four-parameter Richard Model)을 사용하여 모사하였다. 지진하중에 대하여, 부분구속 접합부에서의 재하(Loading), 제하(Unloading) 및 재재하(Reloading) 거동은 모멘트-상대회전각 곡선과 Masing법칙을 사용하여 표현하였다. 시간영역에서 지진가속도를 구조물에 작용시킴으로써 지진하중의 사실적인 재현을 도모하였다. 다양한 주요 비선형성의 원인들을 고려한 부분구속 접합부를 가지는 강 뼈대 구조물의 신뢰성해석이 지진위험도를 평가하기 위하여 수행되었다. 제안된 기법의 명확한 이해를 돕기 위하여 한 예제를 제시하였다.
