In the case of a concrete structure, vibration problems occur under various conditions because of its low damping performance. To solve this problem, a study on the high damping performance of the polymer concrete with hybrid damper has recently been increased. Since water is not used in polymer concrete, the curing time is short. Also, the physical properties and dynamic properties of polymer concrete are quite excellent. So polymer concrete is widely expected to be used for structural materials. The hybrid damper is the structural system that consists of steel balls and viscous fluid inside the pipe which is embedded in polymer concrete. It can reduce the structural vibrations through the energy dissipation mechanism of viscous fluid and steel balls. In this study, the physical and dynamic properties of polymer concrete with hybrid damper were compared with ordinary concrete. As a result, the elasticity coefficient and the strength of the polymer concrete with hybrid damper were so much excellent. In particular, the tensile strength was 6.5 to 10 times higher than ordinary concrete. The frequency response function and damping ratio were also compared. As a result, the dynamic Stiffness of the polymer concrete was 25% greater than that of ordinary concrete. The damping ratio of the polymer concrete was approximately 3 times higher than that of ordinary concrete. Although the dynamic stiffness of the hybrid damper showed similar tendency, the damping ratio was 3.5 times higher than that of ordinary concrete. Therefore, the polymer concrete with hybrid damper was superior to ordinary concrete.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the stiffness reduction and damping ratio of reinforced concrete hollow slabs and to analyze their performance, and to study the effect of the damping effect of hollow bodies and the stiffness reduction on the serviceability of slabs. Method: Test specimen was made in a size of 0.6m^*0.21m^*3.6m to evaluate the vibration effect of the slab, and the hollow ratio was set in six steps from 0.0% to 30% to measure the change in rigidity and damping according to the change in the hollow ratio. Result: As the hollow ratio increases, rigidity decreases and the natural frequency decreases, but as the mass decreases, the natural frequency increases gradually. Since energy is hardly dissipated up to the hollow ratio of 20%, the hollow ratio should be reduced by 30%. Conclusion: It was found that the bending strength degradation of the slab with a hollow ratio of about 30% is minimized, but an appropriate natural frequency can be maintained, and a certain damping effect can be obtained.

An analytical model was developed to estimate the viscous and squeeze-film damping ratios of heat exchanger tubes subjected to a two-phase cross-flow. Damping information is required to analyze the flow-induced vibration problem for heat exchange tubes. In heat exchange tubes, the most important energy dissipation mechanisms are related to the dynamic interaction between structures such as the tube and support and the liquid. The present model was formulated considering the added mass coefficient, based on an approximate model by Sim (1997). An approximate analytical method was developed to estimate the hydrodynamic forces acting on an oscillating inner cylinder with a concentric annulus. The forces, including the damping force, were calculated using two models developed for relatively high and low oscillatory Reynolds numbers, respectively. The equivalent diameters for the tube bundles and tube support, and the penetration depth, are important parameters to calculate the viscous damping force acting on tube bundles and the squeeze-film damping forces on the tube support, respectively. To calculate the void fraction of a two-phase flow, a homogeneous model was used. To verify the present model, the analytical results were compared to the results given by existing theories. It was found that the present model was applicable to estimate the viscous damping ratio and squeeze-film damping ratio.

파쇄 암석의 파쇄도는 발파효율을 나타내는 중요 척도로서 적재와 분쇄 작업에 큰 영향을 미친다. 그러나 현장에 쌓여 있는 발파암 더미로부터 파쇄도를 조사한다는 것은 용이한 작업이 아니다. 본 연구에서는 석산 발파에서 가장 중요한 요소인 천공방식과 암질의 변화가 파쇄도와 발파진동에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 파쇄 입도에 영향을 미치는 중요한 변수인 천공방식, 암질등급(RMR), 현지 암반의 블록 크기, 발파진동 등의 영향을 파쇄암의 평균입도(MFS)와 상위 5개의 대괴 평균치$(L_5)$로 나타내었다. 연구결과, 파쇄암의 평균입도는 상위 5개의 대괴 평균치와 선형적인 관계를 보였다. 발파방법과 파쇄도 평가 결과 재래식 발파에서는 파쇄도를 예측할 수 없었고 커다란 옥석이 생성되었으나, 벤치발파에서는 평균파쇄암의 크기가 비교적 양호한 파쇄 상태를 유지하였다. 현지 암반 블록 크기는 평균 파쇄암의 크기와 선형적 관계를 나타내었다. RMR값이 커짐에 따라 발파진동 추정식의 진동상수 K와 감쇠지수 n의 절대값과 평균 파쇄암의 크기, 그리고 상위 대괴의 크기는 대체적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었고, 진동상수 K와 감쇠지수 n도 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

In this paper, aeroelastic instability and aerodynamic damping ratio of a helical $180^{\circ}$ model which shows better aerodynamic behavior in both along-wind and crosswind responses on a super tall building was investigated by an aeroelastic model test, and the aerodynamic damping ratio was evaluated from the wind-induced responses of the model by using Random Decrement Technique. Aerodynamic damping ratios evaluated in this study were verified through comparison with previous results obtained by quasi-steady theory. As a result, the aeroelastic instability of the helical $180^{\circ}$ model in crosswind direction were not occurred for any conditions with increasing the reduced wind velocity while the square model generally encounters aeroinstability due to the vortex shedding. The aerodynamic damping in along-wind direction for the helical $180^{\circ}$ and the square model increased monotonically both with reduced wind velocity, i.e., there is no relation with modifications of building shapes. On the other hand, in crosswind direction, the characteristics of aerodynamic damping ratio with reduced wind velocity for helical $180^{\circ}$ model were quit different from those of the square model.

In the present study, TMD(tuned mass damper) with eddy current damping is proposed to suppress the vibration of a cantilever beam effectively. The advantages of TMD are that it is simple and its performance are excellent at any particular frequency. However, TMD may have the low performance at other frequency. To solve this problem and improve its performance, this study applies the eddy current damping to TMD. This TMD with ECD is named as MTMD(magnetically tuned mass damper). MTMD is designed for the vibration suppression of a cantilever beam. The mathematical modeling, simulation, and experiments of the cantilever beam with MTMD are performed. From analytic and experimental results, it can be concluded that the vibration suppression performance of MTMD are excellent.

The goal of this paper Is to characterize the vibration damping induced in a main structure by a large number of sub-oscillators. A simple expression is obtained for the substructure impedance when the number of sub-oscillators approaches Infinity. It is found that the induced damping depends on the total mass of the sub-oscillators resonating in a frequency band of interests and nearly independent of their Individual loss factors. A modal overlapping condition. which corresponds to bandwidths that exceed the spacing of those natural frequencies, is required for the sub-oscillators to have such effects. An impulse response of the system is also considered. When the sub-oscillators lack damping and do not satisfy the modal overlapping condition, the vibratory energy is returned from the sub-oscillators to the main structure at later times. The result of this paper is consistent with that found with the fuzzy structure and SEA framework.

In this paper the optimum values of natural frequency ratio and damping ratio for damped systems were studied by numerical analysis. The relation between the amplitude ratio and frequency ratio obtained for the non-linear dynamic vibration absorber was found and it was compared with that of linear system. The results shows that the optimum frequency ratio decreases and the optimum damping ratio increases when the mass ratio of the damped system increases. The resonance frequency ratio and amplitude ratio decrease as mass ratio increases for the non-linear spring system.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the damping behavior of a flexible joint. The slip at a structrual joint is selected at the tips of two identical cantilever beams adjoining each other. Both the direction of normal force and its magnitude varies due to the global deformation of the structure from mode to mode in the friction model. The friction dependent on vibration displacements resultsin the same functional behavior of the hysteretic material damping. Linearized energy loss factors are obtained as functions of both linear and torsional spring stiffness for their groups of symmetric and anti-symmetric modes, respectively. Experimental measurements as made for comparisons with analytical estimations by controlling the magnitude of fastening torque in the fastener, Hi-Lite. Trends on damping levelsmeasured in a very common vibration test method make an excellent agreement on the estimated damping levels.

On the basis of the concept of strain energy-weighted dissipation, an enhanced model for predicting damping in laminates is presented. In this model, the influence of transverse shear on $90^{\circ}$ laminates has been included with those of in-plane stresses on beam. Also, an experimental damping measurement is conducted with changing the length and the thickness of laminated beam specimen for confirmation of the model prediction. The theoretical predictions in $90^{\circ}$laminates were reasonably compared with experimental data. The transverse shear reveals to have an influence on the damping, behavior in $90^{\circ}$ laminates.
