Study for the Vertical Vibratioin Control Method of Railway Structure

철도구조물의 연직진동 제어기법에 관한 연구

This study investigates vertical vibration control method for railway structure by using vertical vibration control device. The device consists of high stiffness polyurethane spring and friction damper recognized by National Center for Earthquake Engineering Research of USA for durability. To confirm the capacity of vertical vibration control, at first, behavior equation is established by considering correlation among the components. Then, hysteresis curve is drawed from behavior equation. By considering both dynamic behaviors and material nonlinearities, more reasonable behavior of the device can be simulated. After that, the Validity of the vibration control trend is proved by FEM(Finite Element Method).
