Software Overview

Windows 7/8/10▼Fiber Elements

Engineer's Studio® covers the full range of analysis requirements from preprocessing through to post-processing. The program simulates the non-linear
response of structures utilizing a variety of FEM element types and nonlinear
material models.
The supported element types include 3D fiber beams , moment-curvature beammodels, Reissner-Mindlin plates, 6 DOF springs and catenary cables among others.

▼Laminated Plate Elements

Static and dynamic analysis is supported incorporating material and geometrical
non-linearity simultaneously. Plate elements have laminated material definitions.
Each layer can have different thicknesses and material models defined. The
Maekawa 2D non-linear RC model is applied to layers within a plate element thus
giving it both in plane and out of plane nonlinear modelling abilities.

Dynamic Non-linear Analytical Program for 2D RC Structures
Windows 7/8/10

Forum8 has produced analytical program WCOMD, developed by the Concrete Materials & Structures Laboratory at the University of Tokyo, for
2D non-linear dynamic analysis/static analysis of reinforced concrete. WCOMD uses high-precision constitutive properties based on the results
achieved through numerous experiments and theoretical veriﬁcations on concrete. These properties are highly regarded internationally, as well asin Japan, and provide accurate 2D non-linear dynamic/static analysis of various reinforced concrete structures with cracks. The safety and damagelevel of structures can be evaluated from analytical results so that more rational and appropriate reinforced concrete structures can be designed.

Damage brought by huge disasters
and measures to reduce it

Data assimilation of performance veriﬁcation of new
structures and inspection data of existing structures

He gave a commentary on "Technological examination report for countermeasures against catastrophic disasters that bring about 'crisis for the nation'"
released by Japan Society of Civil Engineers (JSCE) in May 2018, which heapproached JSCE to work on from a sense of crisis that the public people areaware of almost nothing about what will actually happen when Nankai Troughearthquake occurs. In his opinion, Japan has already lost force in its economic
power, having a large number of infrastructures such as bridges built decades
ago are left deteriorated, if a catastrophic disaster occurs, Japan may become
the poorest nation in Asia. Then he and others examined measures for avoiding
fatal situations and limit the damage within a recoverable range when hugedisasters occur. As part of this, ﬁrstly they simulated economic stagnationeﬀect that continue for a long time (20 years for an earthquake and 14 months
for a water disaster) based on the transition of Gross Regional Product (GRP)
after the past occurrence catastrophic disasters such as the Great
Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake (1995). At the same time, using the estimation
method developed by JSCE, they estimatedeconomic damages and asset damages caused
by each of assumed catastrophic disasters. For
example, the economic damage caused by
Nankai Trough earthquake for 20 years
amounts to at worst 1410 trillion Yen. He said
investment in resilience yields even greaterﬁnancial beneﬁt in his opinion.

As inspection data of existing structures increased rapidly, their eﬀective
use was required. On the contrary, there were some structural problems
that made nonlinear analysis unable to treat them. He expressed histhoughts about this process of trial and error. Regarding this, he talked
about his attempt of data simulation for uniting inspection informationand numerical analysis (data assimilation), which he and others had beenworking on in "The Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion
Program (SIP)" (Cabinet Oﬃce, Government of Japan). He also explained
possibility of its utilization in maintenance by mutual complement ofadvantages and disadvantages of each of inspection data and nonlinear
analysis. In addition, he mentioned constrains that had emerged throughthe current SIP project. In working out countermeasures for them, anapproach was devised, in which artiﬁcial intelligence (AI) is trained withthe results of numerical analysis as
training data. Based on their results, heintroduced an attempt to obtain theinspection data of bridges automaticallywhile driving on expressways andactually connect them to numericalanalysis.

Transition of bridge technology

Repair example for long-lasting structureFirst, he explained the deﬁnition of external cable structure (externalprestressing) and the diﬀerence from internal cables, and their characteristics based on the results of experiments and analyses etc. Then hedeveloped his discussion into the structural advantage of a 2-spanprestressed concrete girder bridge with external tendons of large
eccentricity, the results of experiments and analyses about ﬂexibility ofits design, application of the structure to an actual bridge (Torisaki River
Park Bridge) by joint study, and the construction process to completion of
the bridge. Furthermore, he expounded the requirements for providing thebridges newly constructed or renewed in
the future with high durability from thefollowing points of view: 1) Structural
rationality, 2) Multilayer protection, and 3)
Easy inspection. Finally, he mentioned theprocess of modiﬁcation of new Speciﬁcations for Highway Bridges, as well as therelated points in the current modiﬁcation.

Focusing on an upcoming problem about the delamination of concrete
fragments, he explained its cause and measures to improve quality of
newly constructed structures and repair existing buildings, including
damages caused by alkali-aggregate reaction, salt damage, and frost
damage and various repair methods, earthquake and its countermeasure.
Based on this, he mentioned as following. 1) Design and construction
standards should be changed early by using maintenance trouble data. 2)
Causes and countermeasures can be determined by only looking at
structure. 3) Demerits of construction ineach era can be assumed from theconstruction method and design
standard at that time. In his opinion, thedata cooperation from design tomaintenance is important for long-lasting structure.

The joining method of structures used in many steel structures in Japan is generally afastening method using welding or bolts. In case of welded joint, there are few accidents dueto the vibration or loosening of nuts compared to the bolt fastening, but brittleness occurs at
the same time as hardening around the joints due to the thermal eﬀect of welding. The
non-destructive inspection technique and visual inspection are used for the weld joint
inspection. However, in countries that have experienced major earthquakes, it is required todesign buildings with the method that makes the entire building plasticized without collapsing
and absorbs the earthquake energy to prevent the collapse and save human life, if a large
earthquake with a seismic intensity of 6 or more based on the building design standards
occurs. In other developed countries, there is currently no report of monitoring the soundnessof only connecting part for a long period. In order to evaluate the soundness of steel
structures after large earthquakes, there is a demand for the construction of a monitoring
system that enables long-term, inexpensive, and simple measurement using an autonomous
limit sensor. This report says the test result of analysis technology that enables the predictionof displacement and load from the output of the new sensor.

Among harbor structures, jetties are especially in severe environments against salt damage
and need more appropriate maintenance than other structures. However, there are not somany studies on residual strength and seismic performance of degenerate jetties. In addition,
an evaluation of jetties' remaining strength normally requires a detailed constant check anddiagnosis that takes a lot of cost and time. That is why companies need simple strength
evaluation methods. This research is an suggestion of a simple residual strength evaluation
method that performs a loading experiment for each degradation level to reveal the
relationship between the degree of degeneration and the remaining strength and export theresults to general structure analysis software programs.
