In this paper, an experimental verification of system identification technique for constructing finite element model is conducted for a three-story test structure equipped with an active mass driver (AMD). Twenty Gaussian white noises were used as the input for AMD, and the corresponding accelerations of each floor are measured. Then, the complex frequency response function (FRF) for the input, the force induced by the AMD, was obtained and subsequently, the Markov parameters and system matrices were estimated. The magnitudes as well as phase of experimentally obtained FRFs match well with those of analytically obtained FRFs.

In this paper, we propose an interpolation technique to rain attenuation data which represents dynamic characteristics by time variations. By using this technique, it is possible to sample the rain attenuation data at an arbitrary time interval, and thus it would play an important role in developing adaptive transmission scheme for countermeasuring rain attenuation. We propose the interpolation technique which can synthesizes rain attenuation data by extracting the most proper parameters required to emulate the dynamic characteristics of rain attenuation. Interpolation results to measured data of I minute time interval will be demonstrated, and it is shown that more exact performance evaluation of adaptive transmission scheme to countermeasure rain attenuation can be achieved.

When car builder designs the large carbody structure of railway vehicles, it is necessary to optimize the damping characteristics through the analysis of structure borne noise such as sound pressure level(SPL). This paper is a study on the structure borne noise analysis by characterizing the damping of double skin aluminum extruded panels for rolling stock carbody. The normalized SPL was calculated based on the simple source theory using measured mechanical mobility parameters from vibration tests(i.e. point, transfer and modal mobility). The reduced SPL was predicted by using finite element method by applying loss factor of damping material into laminated shell elements. It was found out that the damping material coated on the panels like underframe, which part is seriously affected by vibration during train run, took effect to reduce noise level.

This research developed two semi-active MR dampers whose gaps in the orifice area were different from each other, and evaluated their damping performance by loading tests. The Damping performance of MR dampers characteristically depends on various factors like their material and mechanical ones, but most importantly on the size of gap in the orifice area. For this research, we designed the orifice gaps of two dampers as each 1.0mm and 2.0mm, both with the 80mm outer diameter of the orifice. We also designed two loading test sets with different input currents, and acquired different control ability from them. The acquired test results were analyzed and evaluated with their maximum and minimum damping force and also their dynamic range from the force-displacement hysteresis loops and the force-input current relationship curve. This research clearly proved how the damping performance of control devices depends on the gap effect, and also presented a possibility that the two dampers developed in this research could be used for the smart control of construction structures by effectively adapting the input current and the number of coil turns.

An identification method of the structural damping matrix for a steel bar by the genetic algorithm is proposed. Supposing the damping matrix were in proportion to the stiffness matrix, the proportional factors can be identified from the curve fitting of the experimental frequency response function(FRF) by the genetic algorithm. Applying the identified damping matrix to FEM of a beam model, the values of the objective function could be reduced to about 1/60 in comparison with conventional FEM model without damping. The damping matrices of some sub-structures which have large damping partly could be identified by the algorithm, and they could be used as some parts of the FEM model for a whole structure.

Linear stability analysis for combustion instability within a cylindrical port of solid rocket motor has been conducted. The analysis of acoustic energy has been performed by a commercial COMSOL code to obtain the mode function associated to each acoustic mode prior to the calculation of stability alpha. An instability diagnosis based on the linear stability analysis of Culick is performed where special interests have been focused on 5 stability factors(alpha) such as pressure coupling, nozzle damping, particle damping and additionally, flow turning effect and viscous damping to take into account the flow and viscosity effect near the fuel surface. The instability decay characteristics depending on the particle size is also analyzed.

In this study, the two-way coupled analysis method of LES-WASS-2D and DEM has been newly developed to review numerically wave attenuation due to behavior of vegetation zone could not yet applied in numerical analysis. To verify the applicability, two-way coupled analysis method is analyzed comparing to the experimental result about characteristics of wave attenuation using vegetation. Numerically analyzed behavior and characteristics of wave attenuation according to height length, distribution length, spacing of vegetation zone and incident wave conditions. It was confirmed to be effective of 3~4% wave attenuation were increased height length and distribution length, narrowed spacing of vegetation. Finally, this study is applicable to behavior and wave attenuation prediction of vegetation zone.

A three node triangular element with drilling rotations incorporating improved higher-order zig-zag theory(HZZT) is developed to accurately assess the stress distribution through thickness of the laminated plate and analyze the vibration of pretwisted composite plates with embedded damping layer. Shear force matching conditions are enforced along the interfaces between the embedded damping patch and the border patch. The natural frequencies and model loss factors are calculated for cantilevered pretwisted composite blade with damping core with the present triangular element, and compared to experiments and MSC/NASTRAN using a layered combination of plate and solid elements.

In general, simple fluid added mass method is used for the seismic and vibration analysis of the immersed structure to consider the fluid-structure interaction effect. Actually, the structural response of the immersed structure can be affected by both the fluid added mass and damping caused by the fluid viscosity. These variables appeared as a consistent matrix form with the coupling terms. In this paper, finite element formula for the inviscid fluid case and viscous fluid case are derived from the linearized Navier Stoke's equations. Using the finite element program developed in this paper, the analyses of fluid added mass and damping for the hexagon core structure of the liquid metal reactor are carried out to investigate the effect of fluid viscosity with variation of the fluid gap and Reynolds number. From the analysis results, it is verified that the viscosity significantly affects the fluid added mass and damping as the fluid gap size decrease. From the analysis results of eccentricity effect on the fluid added mass and damping of the concentric cylinders, the fluid added mass increase as the eccentricity increases, however the fluid damping increases only when the eccentricity is very severe.
