In this paper, the hysteretic characteristics of traditional wooden house frame,which is fabricated by Sagaemachum, under cyclic lateral load are presented. Full scale frame models are used in the tests. The skeleton curves of traditional wooden frame are quite different from those of wooden frames which are fabricated using nails or bracings. The equivalent viscous damping ratios of the frame system are about 27% and 13% for ordinary and high-column frames, respectively. The nonlinear hysteretic characteristics of the frame is modeled by the so called Modified Double Target model.

In general, crankshafts which are used in internal combustion reciprocating engines are subjects to high torsional vibration. Therefore, a damper is often used to minimize the torsional vibration in reciprocating engines. In this paper, in order to investigate damping performance of viscous damper, the real effective viscosity and complex damping coefficient of silicone oil, and the effective inertia moment of inertia ring are calculated considering the relative motion between damper casing and inertia ring. Based on these results multi-cylinder shaft is modeled into equivalent 2-degree of freedom system and optimum condition is estimated by calculating the amplification factor of viscous damper. Also the test damper was manufactured according to the result of theoretical investigation, the performance and durability was ascertained through experimental examination.

Direct Integration method(D.I) and Mode Superposition method(M.S) are used widely in dynamic analysis method for structure with isolation devices. D.I is used firstly because it is consider to nonlinearity of isolation device. M.S is applied in elastic region, but it is difficult to apply M.S because coincidence with othogonality condition in the case of adding the damping of isolation device. In this study, the method for calculation of damping ratio of isolated structure is proposed, and proposed method is verified with analysis for example structure.

본 연구에서는 해성 점성토에 대하여 반복 삼축시험을 실시하고 응력-변형률 관계 및 유효응력경로 특성 분석을 통해 동적 변형 및 강도 특성을 조사하였다. 시험에 사용된 시료는 일본 도쿠시마현의 코마츠시마 항 인근에서 채취된 점성토이며, 반복 삼축시험으로 동적 비배수 삼축시험, 동적 비배수 삼축시험 후 동적 삼축변형시험, 다단계 동적 비배수 삼축시험, 동적 삼축 변형시험 등 4종류의 시험을 수행하고, 시험 주파수로서 0.1 및 0.01 Hz을 적용하였다. 본 연구 결과 0.01 Hz로 수행된 동적 삼축시험 결과는 0.1 Hz로 수행된 삼축시험 결과보다 평균유효응력의 감소량이 크며, 반복 하중은 해성 점성토의 구조적 약화를 초래하고 초기 거동시 발생하는 간극수압과 밀접하게 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 미소변형률 영역에서 등가 탄성계수는 시험 횟수가 증가함에 따라 점차 감소하며, 감쇠비는 점차 증가하는 것으로 보아 변형계수는 반복 하중으로 인한 전단변형률의 축척에 따른 변형률 의존 거동에 관련하는 것으로 판단된다.

Approximate analysis for a building installed with a friction damper is revisited to get insight of its dynamic behavior. Energy balance equation is used to have a closed analytical form solution of dynamic magnification factor (DMF) for the building with combined viscous and friction damping. It is found out that DMF is dependent on friction force ratio and resonance frequency. Linear transfer function from input external force to output building displacement is obtained by simplifying DMF equation. Root mean square of building displacement is derived under earthquake-like random excitation. Finally, design of friction damper is proposed by processing target control ratio, damping ratio factor, and friction force in sequence.

This paper proposes an optimal design method of linear viscous dampers for the seismic performance of two adjacent structures with different heights. Accordingly, connection method using diagonal bracing between two floors and connection method between two structures are considered, and the effectiveness of the latter method is confirmed through the comparison of the frequency response functions with respect to damping capacity. Moreover, optimal damping to minimize the response of the adjacent structures in the frequency domain is found. The sensitivity of natural frequency and modal damping according to the damper capacity at each floor is obtained for the optimally designed system. From the sensitivity analysis, the modal damping is evaluated to be very sensitive to the damper installed at higher floor. Therefore, sensitivity-based damping distribution method is proposed. Diagonal bracing connection method, uniform distribution method and sensitivity-based distribution method are compared to each other in terms of seismic performance. The comparative results demonstrate that the proposed method is an effective seismic design method for the adjacent structures.

A column test was performed far a new-type column with a quasi static test. An internally confined hollow reinforced concrete column with a corrugated steel tube (ICH RC-CT column) was tested to evaluate its seismic performance. And also, a general solid RC column was tested fur the comparison. The test was performed as planned drift levels. The lateral displacements and the lateral loads of column specimens were measured during tests. From the test results, the ICH RC-CT column showed smaller energy absorbing capacity than a solid RC column but showed the almost equal energy ductility and equivalent viscous damping ratio to those of the solid RC column.

서해대교는 국내에 교량구조물에 관한 내진설계가 도입되기 전 설계된 교량으로서 현재 내진설계 규준에 적합하지 않은 종방향철근 및 횡방향 철근이 겹침이음된 중공육각형 단면의 철근콘크리트 기둥으로 이미 시공이 완료된 상태이다. 최근, 지진에 대한 사회적 관심이 대두됨으로서 내진 설계 규준에 적합하지 않은 철근상세를 가지 서해대교 PSM교 교각의 내진성능이 의문시되었다. 따라서, 비내진 철근상세를 가진 서해대교 PSM교 교각의내진성능 평가를 위하여 교각의 축소모형 실험을 수행하였으며, 실험결과 종방향철근 겹침이음이 교각의 전체적인 내진거동에는 큰 영향을 미치지 않으며 기대 이상의 연성을 발휘할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문에서는 축소모형 실험결과에 의한 시험체의 파괴양상, 유효강성, 연성, 응답수 정계수 및 등가점성감쇠비를 분석하였으며, 아울러 가속도변위 응답스펙트럼을 이용하여 서해대교 PSM교 교각의 내진성능을 평가하였다.

The damping of a shock absorption device composed of nonlinear disk spring stacks and rubber rings was investigated. Friction forces of rubber rings and hysteresis of disk springs were obtained experimentally. The hysteresis curves of several types of disk spring stacks were approximated, from which the energy dissipated was estimated. Based upon the friction force and the energy dissipated, 4 damping models were presented and shock responses of the damping models were investigated. The hysteresis of disk spring is more meaningful than the friction of the rubber ring for the damping. For practical use, equivalent viscous damping model for total energy dissipated per cycle was suggested.

Approximate analysis for a building installed with a friction damper is performed to get insight of its dynamic behavior. Energy balance equation is used to have a closed analytical form solution of dynamic magnification factor(DMF). It is found out that DMF is dependent on friction force ratio and resonance frequency. Approximation of DMF and equivalent damping ratio of a friction damper is proposed with such assumption that the building with a friction damper shows harmonic steady-state response and narrow banded response behavior near resonance frequency. Linear transfer function from input external force to output building displacement is suggested from the simplified DMF equation. Root mean square of a building displacement is derived under earthquake-like random excitation. Finally, design procedure of a friction damper is proposed by finding friction force corresponding to target control ratio. Numerical analysis is carried out to verify the proposed design procedure.
