본 연구에서는 진동제어를 목적으로 강성이 비대칭적으로 분포된 구조물에 점탄성 감쇠기를 설치할 경우 비틀림 응답을 줄이기 위한 감쇠기의 효과적인 배치방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 비대칭 구조물의 응답에 미치는 점탄성 감쇠기의 효과를 알아보기 위하여 비대칭 비비례감쇠시스템의 특성방정식을 유도하고, 고유치해석을 통해 감쇠기가 설치된 비틀림 건물의 거동특성을 파악하였다. 이를 바탕으로 강성 편심 및 진동수비에 따른 최적 감쇠 편심을 찾아 이를 3차원 그래프로 나타내었다. 이를 이용하여 비대칭건물에 감쇠기를 설치했을 때 같은 양의 감쇠기를 대칭으로 설치하였을 때 보다 그 효과가 더욱 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 비대칭 건물의 비틀림제어면에서 점탄성 감쇠기가 점점 감쇠기보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

In diesel engines, it is inevitable that the torsional vibration is produced by the fluctuation of engine torque. Therefore, it is necessary to establish preventive measures to diminish the torsional vibration. The sleeve spring type damper is one of the preventive measures for reducing the torsional vibration. In this study, a closed form equation to predict spring constant of the sleeve spring and torsional characteristic of the torsional vibration damper was proposed to calculate stiffness of the damper and verified their availability through the finite element analysis. The theoretical values have a good agreement with the results obtained by the finite element analysis. The results obtained from the equation derived enable the designers in actual fields to be more efficient.

본 논문에서는 TLD와 TLCD를 사용한 하나의 액체 감쇠기를 이용하여 건물의 양방향 응답 제어를 연구하였다. 초고층 건물이 풍하중을 받을때는 풍방향과 풍직각방향으로 진동하여 두 개의 댐퍼를 필요로 한다. 이 논문에서 제안된 댐퍼는 건물의 양방향 응답을 하나의 감쇠기로 제어할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 이 댐퍼의 TLCD는 건물의 주축방향으로 TLD는 주축으로 직각되는 다른 방향으로 거동을 하게 된다. 실험을 통해 양방향 감쇠기를 사용하여 건물의 양방향 응답제어를 증명하였다. 첫 번째로 양방향 감쇠기에 의한 건물의 응답제어를 알기 위한 진동대 실험을 실시하였다. 진동대 가속도를 입력으로 하고 단자유도 건물의 가속도를 출력으로 하는 전달함수를 통해 결과를 나타내었다. 실험 결과 이 연구에서 제안된 감쇠기는 단자유도 건물의 양방향 응답을 제어하였고, 비틀림 응답도 제어 하였다.

In this study the modal characteristics and responses of an asymmetric structure with added viscoelastic dampers were investigated for design parameters such as eccentricity of stiffness and added dampers, the loss factor of the damping materials used. For modal characteristics, variation of the quantities such as natural frequencies, modal damping ratios, modal participation factors, and dynamic amplification factors were observed, and displacements at flexible and stiff edges, and at center of mass were obtained. Based on the results, the problem of the optimum damper distribution to minimize the torsional effects was addressed, and the proposed method for optimum damper distribution was applied to a multi-story structure to verify the applicability Finally the effect of viscous and viscoelastic dampers were compared by varying the loss factor of the viscoelastic material.

Design routines of a torsional spring-viscous damper for a 1800 kW four cycle diesel engine-generator system are described. Modal techniques for system normalization and optimal equations for damper design are used to obtain proper design parameters of the damper. A prototype damper is manufactured according to the described design process and its two design parameters, stiffness and damping, are evaluated experimentally by torsional actuator test and free decay test. Experimentally obtained values of stiffness and damping coefficients showed good agreements with the designed values of the prototype damper.

A torsional damper is generally used to reduce the torsional vibration which occurs at a crankshaft of a multi-cylinder high speed diesel engine. Vibration amplitude should be estimate by the appropriate simulation model to determine the optimum specifications of damper. In this paper a new method which was based on the random tabu search method(RTSM) would be introduced for the viscous damper design to optimize the damping performance. The result was ascertained by comparing with conventional rubber damper.

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.

A force cancelling observed to control the vibration of a single degree of freedom elastic system subjected to an arbitrary, unmeasurable disturbance is considered in this paper. The main idea of a force cancelling observer is how an estimate of the excitation can be derived and used to generate a control force which reduces the vibration. This control is shown to be robust with respect to the parameters describing the behavior of the system. Experimental and numerical results are presented which show the efficacy of the observer when the system is excited by periodic, random, and impulsive torques.

In this study, the closed form equations to predict the spring constant of a sleeve spring and the torsional characteristics of the torsional vibration damper are proposed to calculate stiffness of the damper and verified their availability through the finite element analysis and experiments. And the stability of the sleeve spring torsional vibration damper is verified by analyzing the inner star and outer star, which are the core parts of the damper, and 2-roll bending process is proposed to manufacture sleeve spring. The program to calculate the initial radius including spring-back effect is developed, and the FEA method to analyze elasto-plastic problem was verified through analysis of 90$^{\circ}$bending process. The results of the analysis are in good agreements with those of the experiments. The newly proposed method can be used as an advanced technique that remarkably curtails cost of production and replaces the conventional forming.

In the design of tall building system, the wind loading can be more dominant factor than earthquake loading, and thus, it is important to check the stability and human comfort against wind. Experimental wind tunnel test is usually performed to predict wind behavior of a tall building, however, the test is not cost-effective in the preliminary stage for various structural models of tall building systems. In this regard, the study is focused on the numerical wind analysis of the tall building with and without tuned mass dampers based on the three dimensional model of wind loads and building behavior. As a numerical result, an asymmetrical 102-story tall building is presented to show the results of root mean squares of build responses with and without tuned mass dampers.
