In this paper Power Flow Finite Element Method(PFFEM) has been implemented to analyze the vibration of a plate in mid and high frequency ranges. In order to solve the vibration energy governing equation in Power Flow Analysis(PFA), The Finite Element Method(FEM) was used as a numerical tool. It allowed one to predict the distribution of displacement and Intensity in the plate vibrating at mid and high frequencies. The results were compared with the analytical solutions and the approximate FEM solutions. The comparison showed that PFFEM can be an effective tool to analyze the structural vibration in mid and high frequency ranges.

An experimental study for a crane hook was performed to investigate the stress distribution along a certain line where the maximum and minimum stresses to be developed. On this line, the isoclinic fringe and/or principal stress direction is constant. The crane hook was modeled into a 2-dimensional plate made of urethane rubber called 'Photoflex' The Photoflex is very sensitive to a load and has low photoelastic fringe constant. The Tardy compensation method with the fringe sharpening process and the 4-step phase shifting method, was used for the photoelastic technique. Experimental results by photoelasticity were compared with the calculated stresses from the simple curved beam theory and tile finite element analysis. Ail the results were close to each other.

The main objective of this paper is to analyze the rectangular stiffened plates with two opposite ends elastically restrained and the others simply supported subjected to in-plane bending by Finite Element Method. Another objective is to develope Classical Method analyzing the unstiffened rectangular plates with the above boundary conditions. In order to validate finite element and classical methods, the buckling strengths of the rectangular plates with four simply supported ends, and with two simply supported and the others fixed ends by finite element method and classical method are compared with those of references. In finite element method, elastically restrained ends can be obtained as considering torsional and warping rigidities of end stiffeners. The buckling strengths of the rectangular plates with elastically restrained ends by finite element and classical methods are calculated and compared with each other. In case of stiffened plates, to validate finite element method, the buckling strengths of the rectangular stiffened plates with four simply supported ends, and with two simply supported and the others fixed ends are also compared with those of references. The buckling strengths of the rectangular stiffened plates with elastically restrained ends by finite element method are calculated as solving eigenvalue problems which are obtained as assembling rectangular plate elements and beam elements considered torsional and warping rigidities. The buckling strengths of rectangular stiffened plates according to various positions of rectangular intermediate stiffener, J and I/sub w/ of end stiffeners are also obtained, which are compared to determine the efficient position of intermediate stiffener.

For the analysis of a vibrating two dimensional structure such as the simply supported rectangular plate, Spectral Finite Element Method (SFEM) has been studied. Under the condition that two parallel edges are simply supported at least and the other two edges can be arbitrary, Spectral Finite Element has been developed. Using this element SFEM is applied to the vibrating rectangular plate which all edges are simply supported, and obtain the frequency response function in frequency domain and the dynamic response in time domain. To evaluate these results normal mode method and finite element method (FEM) are also accomplished and compared. It is seen that SFEM is more powerful analysis tool than FEM in high frequency range.

Vibrations and wave propagations in waveguide structures can be analysed efficiently by using waveguide finite element (WFE) method. The WFE method only models the 2-dimensional cross-section of the waveguide with finite elements so that the size of the model and computing time are much less than those of the 3-dimensional FE models. For cylindrical shells or pipes which have simple cross-sections, the external coupling with fluids can be treated theoretically. For waveguides of complex cross-sectional geometries, however, numerical methods are required to deal with external fluids. In this numerical approach, the external fluid is modelled by the boundary elements (BEs) and connected to WFEs. In order to validate this WFE/BE method, a pipe submerged in water is considered in this study. The dispersion diagrams and point mobilities of the pipe simulated are compared to those that theoretically obtained. Also the acoustic powers radiated from the pipe are predicted and compared in both cases of air and water as an external medium.

실내 바닥슬래브의 휨진동에 의한 음향방사문제에 대하여 유한요소법을 적용하여 검토하였다. 단순한 형상의 판이 휨진동하여 자유공간에 음을 방사하는 문제에 대해서는 이론적인 해를 구할 수 있으나, 임의형상의 판이 휨진동하여 실내에 음을 방사하는 문제에 대해서는 검토되지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이와같은 문제를 단순화한 해석법으로서 먼저 유한요소법을 이용하여 판의 휨진동에 대한 고유모드의 상대변위를 구하고, 다음 상대변위를 진동속도로 변환한 결과를 입력조건으로 하여 유한요소법에 의한 3차원 음장해석을 하였다. 그 결과 실내 바닥슬래브의 휨진동에 의한 음향방사파워는 슬래브의 진동모드, 실내음향모드 및 벽흡음율 등의 조건에 따라 크게 변화된다는 것을 확인하였다.

Elastic critical loads of sinusoidally tapered bars with simply supported ends are determined by finite element method. The parameters considered in the analysis are taper parameter (=a) and section property parameter (=m). The analysis result for the special case of porismatic bar (a=0) shows good agreement with the existing value. The changes of the critical load coefficients are expressed by an algebraic equation. The coefficients appearing in the equations are determined by regression technique. The critical loads coefficients estimated by the proposed equations reveal little errors when they are compared with those determined by finite element method.

단순한 형상의 소음기는 평면파이론에 의해 비교적 간단하게 음향성능을 해석적으로 구할 수 있다. 그러나 소음기의 형상이 복잡해지거나 해석하고자 하는 주파수의 범위가 평면파의 차단주파수 이상이 될 경우 소음기 내부의 음장이 평면파에서 벗어나게 되어 평면파 이론에 의한 해석은 실제와 상당한 오차가 발생하게 되므로 음장에 대한 3차원 해석이 필요하다. 이론적으로 3차원 문제를 해석할 수 있는 경우는 형상이 극히 단순한 경우에 국한되므로 유한요소법(FEM), 경계요소법(BEM)과 같은 수치해석적인 방법이 이용되고 있다. 경계요소법은 적분 커넬(kernel)의 특이성(singularity) 문제가 있지만 대상 영역의 경계면만을 이산화함으로써 모델링에 소요되는 시간과 노력을 절약할 수 있으므로 음향문제 해석에 있어서 효율적인 방법이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 3차원 경계요소법 프로그램을 개발하고 평면파이론에 의한 해석이 어려운 여러가지 형태의 소음기에 대한 음향성능을 예측하고 실험으로 검증하는것이다. 특히, 단일영역으로 해석이 불가능한 다공형 소음기에 영역분할법을 적용하여 계산하고 결과를 검토하였다.

A simple finite element approach to predicting deformed shape and load-deflection curve of elastomers is presented in this paper. The method is based on several simplifications in deformation pattern and material behavior. The conventional updated Lagrangian approach is employed together with material data obtained by a simple tension test. The presented approach is verified through comparison of predicted results with experimental ones and applied successfully to shape design of various elastomers for shock, vibration and noise control. The advantage of the presented approach lies in easiness, simplicity and accuracy enough for engineering application.
