The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of an MR fluid damper for seismic vibration control of a structure in terms of equivalent linear damping based on linearization technique and to experimentally verify the results from linearization technique by comparing them to those from system identification testing of a building structure with the MR damper. First, among various models for the MR damper, the equivalent damping is estimated for the Bingham model which is mathematically simple. Second, the transfer function of a building structure with the MR damper is obtained by performing shaking table tests and the damping matrices of the structure are constructed using the modal information obtained by the transfer function. It is observed that the damping mathematically estimated using linearization technique for the Bingham model matches well with the damping coefficient experimentally obtained by system identification.

Dynamic behaviour of point tracking system mounted on flying vehicle shaking in a random manner is investigated and the system dynamic is represented by nonlinear stochastic equations. 2-D.O.F. nonlinear stochastic equations are successfully transformed to linear stochastic equations via equivalent linearization procedure in stochastic sense. Newly developed hybrid technique is used to obtain response statistics of the system under non-white random excitation, which is proved to be remarkably accurate one by performing stochastic simulation.

In order to analyze the rolling motion of a ship in random beam waves we have used the equivalent linearization method. The quadratic nonlinear damping, the cubic and quintic nonlinear restoring moments were added to a single degree of freedom linear equation of roll motion. The irregular excitation moment was assumed to be the Gaussian white noise. The statistical characteristic of the response by the equivalent linearization method was compared with the simulation result.

본 논문에서는 마찰감쇠기가 설치된 건물이 붕괴하중을 받을 때의 에너지소산능력을 고려하여 등가감쇠비를 유도하였다. 마찰감쇠기는 주로 지진과 같은 수평하중에 대한 에너지를 소산하기위해 설치된다. 마찰감쇠기를 대각 가새형으로 설치하면 수평하중에 대한 저항력뿐 만아니라 수직하중에 대한 저항성능도 발휘된다. 건물에 설치된 마찰감쇠기는 외력의 크기에 따라 정지와 운동의 상태를 반복하여 외부 입력에너지를 소산시키기 때문에 외력과 응답관계가 비선형이다. 건물은 고유의 점성감쇠를 가지므로 마찰감쇠기가 설치된 건물은 마찰과 점성감쇠를 동시에 고려해야하므로 해석적인 정해를 구하기가 어렵다. 에너지 평형을 이용하여 등가감쇠비를 구하고 운동방정식을 등가선형화하면 쉽게 저항 성능을 파악할 수 있다. 우선 건물에 영향을 미치는 것은 감쇠이므로 감쇠의 영향력을 마찰력비, ${\gamma}_c$로 나타내었다. 둘째, 정해를 마찰력비로 표현하여 유도하고 응답특성을 파악하였다. 셋째, 에너지 균형식을 통해 등가감쇠비를 산정하였다. 마지막으로 등가감쇠비를 검증하기 위하여 등가감쇠비를 이용하여 등가선형화한 응답과 실제 마찰감쇠기를 설치하여 비선형 수치해석한 결과와 비교, 검증하였다.

In order to analyze the rolling motion of a ship in random beam waves we use the partial stochastic linearization method. The quadratic damping and the nonlinear restoring moments given by the odd polynomials up to the 11th order are added to a single degree of freedom linear equation of roll motion. The irregular excitation moment is assumed to be the Gaussian white noise. The statistical characteristics of the response by the partial stochastic linearization method is compared with results by the equivalent linearization method and Monte Carlo simulation. It is fecund that the partial stochastic linearization method is not necessarily superior to the equivalent linearization method.

등가선형이론을 이용한 지진응답해석은 사용의 간편함 때문에 많이 사용되고 있지만, 대부분의 입력 정수들이 경험식에 의해 얻어지고 있어 심각한 오류를 발생시킬 여지가 있다. 입력정수를 실험의 결과로부터 얻을수 없다면 합리적인 방법을 통하여 입력 정수를 결정하여야 하며, 또한 입력 정수들이 해석결과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 고찰이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 입력정수가 해석결과에 미치는 영향에 대한 민감도 분석을 실시하였다. 해석은 등가선형화 이론에 기초하여 개발한 액상화 해석프로그램(KLIq)을 이용하였다. 검토된 사항은 전단탄성계수와 감쇠비의 영향, 변형률의 영향, 반복계산에서 유효변형률 결정방법, 최대전자탄성계수의 영향, 변형률 의존곡선(자반의 종류)의 영향, 입력 지질파의 영향 등이다.

An equivalent linearization technique based on Rayleigh peak distribution for friction damper and brace system (FDBS) under stochastic excitation is proposed. For verification, shaking table test of a small scale 3-story building model with the FDBS is conducted for various slip moment levels. Using experimental result, equivalent linearization of the FDBS is conducted based on Rayleigh peak distribution, which is compared with measured peak distribution. For comparative study, model updating technique is applied based on identified modal properties. Finally, complex modal analysis and time history analysis for the obtained equivalent linear systems are conducted and compared with experimental result

In this paper the feedback linearization of the valve-controlled nonlinear hydraulic velocity control system and the implementation of the digital state feedback controller is studied. The $C^{\infty}$ nonlinear transfomation to the electro-hydraulic velocity control system, which transforms nonlinear system to linear equivalent one, is obtained. It is shown that this transformation is global one. The digital controller to this linearized model is obtained by using the one-step ahead state estimator and implemented to real plant. The proposed implementation method is easier than the other proposed methods and it is possible to control in real time. The experiment and simulation study show that the implementation of the digital state feedback controller based on the feedback linearized model is successful..

A new equivalent linearization technique is proposed for a friction damper-brace system (FDBS) idealized as a elastoplastic system. The equivalent linearization technique utilizes secant stiffness and dissipated energy defined by the probability distribution of the extremal displacement of the FDBS. In addition, a conversion scheme is proposed so that an equivalent linear system is designed first and converted to the FDBS. For comparative study, an existing model update technique based on system identification is modified in a form appropriate to update single element. For the purpose of verification, shaking table tests of a small scale three-story shear building model, in which a rotational FDBS is installed, are conducted and equivalent linear systems are obtained using the proposed technique and the model update technique. Complex eigenvalue analysis is conducted for those equivalent linear systems, and the natural frequencies and modal damping ratios are compared with those obtained from system identification. Additionally, RMS and peak responses obtained from time history analysis of the equivalent linear systems are compared with measured ones.
