Abstract

In this paper, a stochastic field that is compatible with Monte Carlo simulation is suggested for an expansion-based stochastic analysis scheme of weighted integral method. Through investigation on the way of affection of stochastic field function on the displacement vector in the series expansion scheme, it is noticed that the stochastic field adopted in the weighted integral method is not compatible with that appears in the Monte Carlo simulation. As generally recognized in the field of stochastic mechanics, the response variability is not a linear function of the coefficient of variation of stochastic field but a nonlinear function with increasing variability as the intensity of uncertainty is increased. Employing the stochastic field suggested in this study, the response variability evaluated by means of the weighted integral scheme is reproduced with high precision even for uncertain fields with moderately large coefficient of variation. Besides, despite the fact that only the first-order expansion is employed, an outstanding agreement between the results of expansion-based weighted integral method and Monte Carlo simulation is achieved.

본 연구에서는 급수전개를 이용한 추계론적 유한요소해석법의 개선을 위한 등가몬테카를로 추계장함수를 제안하고 1차 Taylor전개를 이용한 추계론적 유한요소해석법인 가중적분법에 적용하였다. 일반적으로 1차 Taylor전개를 이용하는 수치해석법에서의 응답변화도는 고려하고 있는 추계장의 분산계수에 대하여 선형거동을 보인다. 그러나 몬테카를로 해석의 경우 추계장 분산계수에 대하여 비선형 거동을 나타낸다. 이는 급수전개법의 1차 Taylor전개에 따른 선형특성에 기인한다. 따라서, 가중적분법에서 사용되는 Taylor전개된 변위벡터와 몬테카를로 해석에서의 변위벡터를 비교하고 이들 두 변위벡터 사이에 상호 불일치 하는 점을 고찰하여 몬테카를로 해석에서의 변위벡터와 등가의 변위벡터를 구성하고 이를 가중적분법에 적용하였다. 제안한 등가몬테카를로 추계장은 본래의 추계장 함수에 대한 고차함수로 주어진다. 평면구조에 대한 수치해석을 통하여 제안한 등가몬테카를로 추계장을 이용한 정식화의 타당성을 고찰하였다 새로운 정식화는 기존의 l차 가중적분법을 위한 정식화 과정과 유사하게 수행할 수 있었다.
