Continuously controlled semi-active suspension system may improve ride and handling properties. Here, as a mechanism to control the fluid flow solenoid valve mechanism is introduced and added to the basic passive damper to create damping forces of the shock absorbers. The system may produce continuously controlled damping forces in both solenoid valve only and combination with passive shock absorber including fluid flow is studied, and then the combined model is added to the full vehicle model to evaluate its ride and handling performance. Finally, the simulation results are compared to the vehicle models having similar suspension system.

Active suspension systems have been using for improving ride quality and stability for vehicles. An active suspension system is composed of a hydraulic pump, pressure control valves, hydraulic dampers, vehicle body, tires and other components. In this study, the mathematical model for the active suspension system based on the quarter car concept is derived, and a program for analysing the dynamic behaviour of the suspension system is developed. The computed results by the developed program are compared with the experimental results for confirming the reliability and usefulness of the developed program.

In order to develop the compatible damping device in various vibration source, a hybrid wall-type damper combining slit and friction damper in parallel was developed. Cyclic loading tests and two-story RC reinforced frame tests were performed for structural performance verification. As a result of the 5-cyclic loading test according to KBC-2016 and low displacement cyclic fatigue test, The hybrid wall type damper increased its strength and the ductility was the same as that of the slit damper. In addition, As a result of the two-layer frame test, the reinforced frame had about twice the strength of the unreinforced frame, and the story drift ratio was satisfied to Life Safety Level.

When structural design of a tall building is conducted, reduction of wind-induced lateral displacement is one of the most important problem. For this purpose, additional dampers and vibration control devices are generally considered. In this process, control performance of additional devices are usually investigated for optimal design without variation of characteristics of a structure. In this study, multi-objective integrated optimization of structure-smart control device is conducted and possibility of reduction of structural resources of a tall building with additional smart damping device has been investigated. To this end, a 60-story diagrid building structure is used as an example structure and artificial wind loads are used for evaluation of wind-induced responses. An MR damper is added to the conventional TMD to develop a smart TMD. Because dynamic responses and the amount of structural material and additional smart damping devices are required to be reduced, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is employed in this study. After numerical simulation, various optimal designs that can satisfy control performance requirement can be obtained by appropriately reducing the amount of structural material and additional smart damping device.

우리나라의 농가에서 운반용으로 사용되고 있는 동력경운기와 트랙터 등의 트레일러는 현가장치와 방진장치가 없는 것이 대부분이다. 이런 트레일러를 비포장 된 과수원 등의 농장에서 과채류를 포장되지 않은 상태로 적재물이 트레일러의 바닥에 깔린 채 소량을 적재한 상태로 저속으로 운송될 때 충격, 진동, 마찰 등으로 많은 수송 손실이 예상된다. 이런 수송손실을 줄이기 위해서는 트레일러에 전달되는 진동을 줄여야 한다. (중략)

The objective of this study is to assess attenuation correction algorithms utilized in a multipurpose whole-body GSO PET scanner. Four different types of phantoms were tested using different types of attenuation correction techniques. FOV (Field of View) of 256mm was used for brain PET imaging. For compensating attenuation, transmission data of a $^{137}$Cs point source were acquired after the F-18 emission source was infused to the phantoms. Scatter correction were peformed. Reconstructed images of the phantoms were assessed. In addition, reconstructed images of a normal subject were compared and assessed by nuclear medicine physicians. As a result, decreased intensity at the central portion of the attenuation map with cylindrical phantom was noticed during use of the measured attenuation correction. On the other hand, segmentation or remapping attenuation correction provided uniform phantom image. the images reconstructed from the clinical brain data explained the attenuation of a skull, at though reconstructed images of the phantoms couldn't explain it. in conclusion, the complicated and improved attenuation correction methods were required to obtain the better accuracy of the quantitative brain PET images. Our study will be useful in improving quantitative brain PET imaging modalities with attenuation correction of $^{137}$Cs transmission source.

현대의 건물은 초고층화 되어가기 때문에 바람이나 지진에 의한 건물의 과다진동이 일어나며 이것은 기초분리(base isolation) 방법 또는 제진장치를 설치함으로써 해결할 수가 있다. 기초분리 방법은 지진 다발 지역에서 지진에 의한 피해를 감소시키기 위하여 주로 이용되며 제진장치는 지진은 물론 바람을 받는 고층건물, 타워, 다리 등의 대형 구조물의 제진에 사용이 되며 병원, 컴퓨터센터, 그리고 반도체 공장 등 정밀한 작업이 이루어지는 곳에서의 국부적인 제진에 적용이 되고 있다. 제진장치는 수동제진장치와 능동제진장치로 대별이 되며 원리는 질량을 이용한 건물의 감쇠력을 증대시키는 데 있다. 능동제진장치를 이용한 시스템은 과다한 설치비와 운영비 뿐만 아니라 강한 바람이나 지진이 왔을 때 전력 중단이 되어 작동이 되지 않을 때가 있으므로 현재로서는 수동제진장치가 많이 이용이 되고 있다. 따라서 현재 강한 바람이나 지진에 대한 건물전체의 거동은 수동제진장치에 의하여 대처하고 약한 바람과 지진 등에 대한 국부적인 제진에는 능동제진장치를 이용하는 복합제진시스템(hybrid vibration control system)이 제시되고 있다.

The roll motion of a general vessel, which is more influenced by resonance as compared to other motions, adversely affects the passenger and hull. Therefore, reducing the roll motion through an anti-rolling system is critical, and most ships use various devices such as anti-rolling tanks, bilge keels, and fin stabilizers to accomplish this. In this study, a simplified model is developed for the application of an anti-rolling device for unmanned semi-submersible vessels. The applied anti-rolling device is installed on the stern and stem of a ship using a pair of servo motors with added weight, and the motor is controlled through the Arduino. The moment of the motor is designed and implemented based on a mathematical model such that it is calculated through the restoring force according to the heel angle of the ship. The performance of the proposed system was verified by utilizing the roll damping coefficient calculated by the free-roll decay test and logarithmic decrement method and was validated by a towing tank test. The system is expected to be used for unmanned vessels to perform sustainable missions.
