The objective of this study is to develop a damage model based on damage mechanics that can be used to analyze the mechanical behavior of structures with defects and the global behavior of damaged structures. A modified second order damage tensor that can be applied to finite element analysis is used to reflect the effect of damage. The damage stress computed from the effective stress is considered as an additional loading term acting on nodes and can represent the effect of crack surface. The accuracy of the proposed algorithm is verified by comparing the analysis results with the experimental data from other studies and the analysis results based on transverse isotropic theory. The developed damage model is applied to the analyses of structures with cracks under linear elastic condition. Numerical results show that the developed model can effectively analyze the global behavior of damaged structures.

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to identify factors affecting anxiety about disaster damage potential in Gyonggi-do and evacuation behavior that influences evacuation behavior. Method: Multiple regression analysis was performed to test the hypothesis and to analyze the influence of anxiety about disaster damage potential and perceived stress, and analyzed similarity in correspondence between age and anxiety about disaster damage potential. Results: The anxiety about disaster damage potential of a group vulnerable to safety and anxiety about disaster damage potential of disaster system collapse were perceived in close proximity. Disaster system collapse, evacuation life, and natural disasters were found to be factors affecting perceived stress. Stress and natural disasters were found to be influencing factors on evacuation behavior. Conclusion: The necessity of managing stress was confirmed since anxiety about natural disaster damage potential and stress affect evacuation behavior. The recent experiences of heavy rain disasters indicate that the anxiety about disaster damage potential is expected to increase. The findings also indicate the importance of preventive planning and psychological management to manage the anxiety about disaster damage potential.

The diagnosis of bridge serviceability is carried out by a combination of in-situ visual inspection, static and dynamic loading tests and analyses. Structural health monitoring (SHM) using information technology and sensors is increasingly being used for providing a better estimate of structural performance characteristics rather than above traditional methods. Because the mechanical behavior of bridges with various kinds of damage can not be made clear, it is very difficult to estimate both the damage mode and degree of damage of existing bridges. In this paper, the sensitivity of both static and dynamic behaviors of bridges are studied as a measure of damage assessment through experiments on model bridges induced with some specified artificial damages. And, a method of damage assessment of bridges based on those behaviors is discussed in detail. Finally, based on the results, a possible application for structural health monitoring systems for existing bridges is also discussed.

The developed damage model is applied to the analyses of structures with cracks under linear elastic condition. The comparisons confirmed that the quantitative analysis of the structural behavior due to crack orientation and multiple sets of cracks is possible. Also, the damage caused by rock excavation and fault zone is analyzed. The results also showed that the developed model can effectively analyze the global behavior of damaged structures.

In the present study, the method and procedure for analysis of impact damage behavior for concrete under penetration and perforation of projectile is investigated. Conservation law, equation of motion, initial and boundary conditions, and FEM formulation are introduced and derived respectively. Specially, the constitutive equation which rate-dependent damage combined with rate-dependent plasticity within the appropriate framework of theory of thermodynamics is examined. This paper aimed at the review with respect to impact damage models for concrete to develop that model. This paper is a basis research for the development of impact damage model for concrete.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of male university student perceptions of dating violence on dating violence abuse behavior and damage behavior. The subjects of the study were 233 students from six departments at U University located in Chungbuk. As a research instrument, Haeun Yoon's(2013) instrument was used to recognize dating violence, and CTS2 was used as a instrument for harassment and damaging behavior of dating violence. For data analysis, correlation analysis between dating violence perception and damage behavior was performed, and regression analysis was performed to determine the effect of dating violence perception on dating violence harassment and damage behavior. First, it was shown that there was a significant negative correlation between the harassment behavior or damage behavior and perception of dating violence in male university students. Second, it was found that the recognition of dating violence had a significant negative effect on the harassment behavior and damage behavior of dating violence. The results of the research could be used as basic data to develop a dating violence prevention program.

The objective of this paper is to develop a consistent algorithm for the finite element analysis for behavior of concrete under cyclic loading using viscoplastic-damage model. For modeling the behavior of concrete under cyclic loading, consistent algorithms of rate-dependent viscoplastic-damage are employed with a Willam-Warnke 5-parameter failure criterion which can consider the softening behavior of concrete and consistent tangent moduli are derived. Using finite element program implemented with the developed algorithms, the algorithms are verified and the behaviors of concrete under cylic loading are simulated and compared with experimental data.

This paper presents the impact behavior and damage of laminated composite plates subjected to low-velocity impact. For this purpose, a pendulum impact test for impact behavior and C-scan for impact damage are done. Test materials are carbon/epoxy laminated composite plates and stacking sequences $[0/90_4\;[0/45_2/-45]_s,\;[0/45/-45/90]_s$ and [0/26/51/77/-77/-51/-26/0].

Experimental studies and finite element analyses have been carried out to establish the effect of tendon damage on the structural behavior of concrete filled tubular tied arch girder (CFTA girder). The damage of tendon is considered in different stages by varying the number of damaged cables in the tendon. Static and dynamic structural parameters are observed at each stage. The results obtained from the experiments and numerical studies have been compared to validate the studies. The tendons whose damage can significantly affect the stiffness of the CFTA girder are identified by performing the sensitivity analysis. The locations in the girder which are sensitive to the tendon damage are also identified.

This study introduces the fragility analysis method for the safety evaluation of reinforced concrete pier subject to earthquake. Damage probability is calculated instead of the failure probability from definition of the damage state in the fragility curve. Not only the damage model determined by the response of structure subject to earthquake, but also the plastic-damage model which can represent the local damage is applied to fragility analysis. The evaluation method of damage state by damage variable in global structure is defined by this procedure. This study introduces the fragility analysis method considering the features of nonlinear time history behavior of reinforced concrete element and the plastic behavior of materials. At last, This study gives one of the approach method for seismic margin evaluation with the result of fragility analysis to design seismic load.
