Various passive energy dissipation systems have been proposed and widely applied to real building structures under seismic load due to their high energy-dissipation potential and low cost for installation and maintenance. This paper presents nonlinear dynamic analysis results of the effectiveness of exterior-installed Kagome damping system(EKDS) in passively reducing seismic response. Kagome damping system proposed by previous studies has isotropic and bi-linear hysteretic characteristics and the installation configuration is newly presented in this study. The 15 and 20 story RC framed apartment buildings are used for verifying the effectiveness of the EKDS. The stiffness ratio of the damper supporting column to the original building, the number of the dampers, and the installed stories were considered as design parameters. Numerical results demonstrated that the EKDS were very effective in reducing both the two horizontal directional seismic responses by just using smaller number of exterior-installed damping system when compared to the traditional one-directional inter-story installed damping systems.

에너지 소산장치가 설치된 건무의 비선형 시간이력해석은 복잡하고 많은 시간이 소모된다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 정적해석법인 능력 스펙트럼을 이용하여 구조물의 주어긴 거동 한계를 만족할 수 있는 감쇠기의 양을 산정하는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 먼저 능력스펙트럼법을 이용하여 건물의 비선형 정적응답을 구하고 건물의 응답과 목표변위의 차이를 이용하여 유효감쇠비를 구하고 이러한 유효 감쇠비를 이용하여 필용한 점성 감쇠기의 양을 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 단자 유도계에서 건물의 주기, 요구되는 탄성강도에 대한 항복강도의 비, 항복 후 강성비 등을 변수로 하여 연구를 수행하였다. 제안된 방법에 따라 설계된 점성 감쇠기를 설치한 예제 구조물의 시간이력 해석에 의한 최대 응답은 설계의 초기단계에서 사용한 목표변위와 잘 일치하였다.

As the magnitude and frequency of earthquakes increase in Korea, interest in earthquake damage reduction technology has increased. Therefore, research on vibration damping devices that directly respond to seismic loads is being actively researched. After an earthquake, damage or destruction of the device occurs due to the yield of materials, and thus it takes considerable cost and time for restoration and replacement. To supplement the problems of the existing earthquake damage reduction technology, a study was conducted on the recentering smart damper that can be used continuously after an earthquake. In this study, the recentering smart damper that can be restored to its original shape after load removal was developed using superelastic shape memory alloy, pre-compressed polyurethane. General steel was commonly applied to verify the seismic performance of the superelastic shape memory alloy, and the performance of the smart damper was verified according to the amount of polyurethane pre-compressed

A semi-active MR damper landing gear is a damper that generates a fluid damping force and a magnetic field control damping force when the MR fluid passes through annular flow paths. In the case of MR fluid passing through annular flow paths, an incompletely developed flow inevitably occurs, causing an error in calculating damper inner forces including the fluid damping force. This error results in an inaccurate design of damper structural parameters and control gain selection, resulting in deterioration of dynamic characteristics and shock absorption performance of the landing gear. In this paper, we derived a mathematical model of an MR damper landing gear considering additional damping force generated in the entrance region of annular flow paths of the MR damper. If the mathematical modeling derived from this paper is applied to the design and optimization process of an MR damper landing gear, excellent performance of the MR damper landing gear is expected.

The previous exponential experiment system has been improved for the automatical and accurate axial movement of the neutron source and detector with attaching the automatical control system which consists of a Programmable Logical Controller(PLC) and a stepping motor set. The automatic control program which controls MCA and PLC consistently has been also developed on the basis of GENIE 2000 Library. The exponential experiments have been carried out for Kori 1 unit spent fuel assemblies, Cl4, Jl4 and G23, and Kori 2 unit spent fuel assembly, J44, using the improved systematical measurement system. As the results, the average exponential decay constants for 4 assemblies are determined to be 0.1302, 0.1267, 0.1247, and 0.1210, respectively, with the application of Poisson regression.

This paper introduces the performance of a newly developed base isolation system made from the combination of a polyurethane disk - attached pot bearing and C-shape steel dampers. Ultimate compressive load tests, ultimate rotation tests, dynamic tests, and dynamic load repeat tests have been completed to determine dynamic characteristics and to verify performance characteristics. The experimental results are compared with the analytic results. It is determined that all requirements for bridge bearing in the specifications are satisfied, and that adequate energy dissipation has occurred. The EDC and effective stiffness estimated by tests are similar to the theoretical values.

In this paper, the dynamic response of a multi-story steel moment resisting frame equipped with viscoelastic dampers or lead rubber bearing type isolators subjected to seismic loads is investigated analytically. The objective of this study is to find the best location of viscoelastic dampers by the maximum stress method and maximum story drifts method from structure analysis. Also, a secondary objective of the study is to compare the member force, combined stress, and natural period of the structure retrofitted with viscoelastic dampers or lead rubber bearing type isolators to find effective vibration control method.

Many malfunction take place in container crane spreader due to impact. So we designed a 2 DOF hydraulic impact absorbing equipment to absorb the impact and we studied the change of damping coefficient with respect to the variation of dimensions of oil-Cylinder wail. When we design the dimension of hydraulic cylinder wall considering the displacement on the wall, the value of it over 20m didn't affect the damping coefficient.

A Helmholtz resonator is applied to control high frequency combustion instability in liquid rocket engine. Damping characteristics of the Helmholtz resonator are investigated by the flow characteristic and its design. To simulate combustion instability, resonance in a test section(with fixed volume) is made by a pressure pulsator, and then damping characteristics are investigated. Its orifice length and diameter are selected as the design parameters and flow rates are varied to reveal the effect on damping characteristics. The experimental results show that a Helmholtz resonator is also working with flows. When length and diameter of an orifice are small, the tuning frequency increases as the flow velocity increases.

농용트랙터의 전방차축 현가장치는 노면으로부터 발생하는 진동의 영향을 줄일 수 있기 때문에 트랙터의 대형화, 고속화의 추세에 맞춰서 승차감과 조향감을 향상시키는 데 중요한 역할을 한다. 전방차축의 현가장치는 트랙터의 차체 무게에 의한 부하가 크고, 또한 유압 펌프를 비롯한 유압시스템이 존재하기 때문에 유압식 회로로 구성하는 것이 바람직하다. 하지만, 현가장치의 유압회로를 개발하는데 있어서 실제 시스템을 구성하여 실제 실험을 통한 개발에는 비용과 시간이 많이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 유압식 전방차축 현가장치에 필요한 유압회로부 개발을 위하여 시뮬레이션 기법과 요인시험 장치를 이용 적정 유압회로를 설계하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 어큐뮬레이터, 가변 오리피스, 릴리프밸브, 체크밸브 등으로 구성된 유압 현가요인 시험 장치를 설계 제작하였으며, 현가 부품인 실린더 행정, 속도, 전달되는 힘을 측정하고, 유압 해석 프로그램인 SimulationX를 이용 구성된 유압회로 부품에 측정값을 입력하여 실제 조건과 유사한 동특성을 나타내는 전방차축 현가요인 시뮬레이션 모델을 개발하였다. 개발된 시뮬레이션 모델을 이용하여 실제 시험조건과 같은 가진 조건을 부여하여 개발 현가장치의 특성 값 변동에 따른 현가 성능을 구명하였다. 이를 위해 시뮬레이션 상에서 120 마력 트랙터 무게의 50% 수준에 해당하는 2,000 kg의 부하가 존재하는 상태에서 현가장치의 유/무에 따른, 감쇠 계수의 변화에 따른 스프링상 질량의 RMS 가속도를 비교하였다. 입력 가진으로는 1 Hz, 4 Hz, 8 Hz의 진동수에 각각 10 mm, 6.4 mm, 3.2 mm의 진폭을 인가하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과, 1 Hz에서는 현가장치가 있는 경우 최대 55.9% 개선되었고, 4 Hz에서는 최대 3.9 % 개선되었고, 8 Hz에서는 최대 61.4%까지 개선되었다. 이는 4 Hz의 경우에는 2,000 kg의 부하에 해당하는 고유 진동수 대역에 해당하기 때문에 그 감쇠 효과가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, 다른 주파수 대역에서는 현가장치가 효과적으로 작동하는 것을 나타내었다. 설계한 전방차축 현가 유압회로부를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석한 결과, RMS 가속도의 개선이 명확하게 이루어지는 것을 확인하였으며 입력 주파수 변화에 따라 감쇠특성도 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 추후 연구에는 설계한 유압회로부와 관련 부품을 설계 제작하여 실제 트랙터에 장착 그 성능을 검증할 예정이며, 노면조건에 따라 감쇠성능을 유지하기 위한 반능동형 또는 적응형 현가장치 제어 기술을 적용하여 개선된 현가성능을 확보하기 위한 연구를 수행할 예정이다.
