In constructing the multi-body dynamics model to analyze the behavior of the railway vehicle, it is very important to understand the properties of the suspension elements that constitute the suspension system. Among them, coil springs, which are mainly used in primary and secondary suspension systems, clearly show the axial stiffness in the drawings, but the lateral properties of the coil springs are not specified clearly, making it difficult to construct a dynamic analysis model. Therefore, in this paper, the model for analyzing the lateral stiffness of the coil spring is examined. A finite element method was applied to analyze the lateral stiffness of the coil spring and numerical analysis was performed by applying the coil spring lateral stiffness analysis model proposed by Krettek and Sobczak. And the test to analyze the lateral stiffness of coil spring was conducted. As a result of comparing with the test results, it was found that the results obtained by applying the lateral stiffness analysis model of Krettek and Sobczak and correcting the correction coefficient are similar to those of the test results.

This study mainly treats a new type of the bracing friction damper system, which is able to minimize structural damage under earthquake loads. The slotted bolt holes are placed on the shear faying surfaces with an intention to dissipate considerable amount of friction energy. The superelastic shape memory alloy (SMA) wire strands are installed crossly between two plates for the purpose of enhancing recentering force that are able to reduce permanent deformation occurring at the friction damper system. The smart recentering friction damper system proposed in this study can be expected to reduce repair cost as compared to the conventional damper system because the proposed system mitigates the inter-story drift of the entire frame structure. The response mechanism of the proposed damper system is firstly investigated in this study, and then numerical analyses are performed on the component spring models calibrated to the experimental results. Based on the numerical analysis results, the seismic performance of the recentering friction damper system with respect to recentering capability and energy dissipation are investigated before suggesting optimal design methodology. Finally, nonlinear dynamic analyses are conducted by using the frame models designed with the proposed damper systems so as to verify superior performance to the existing damper systems.

This paper proposes networked swarm robotic systems with group based control scheme using spring damper impendence feature. The proposed algorithm is applied to keep system arrangement in unexpected situations based on the spring-damper impedance and fuzzy logic. Using the proposed scheme, each robot overcome collision problems efficiently. The structure of UBSR (UMPC Based Swarm Robot) system consists of user level, cognitive level, and executive level. This structure is designed to easily meet the different configuration requirements for other levels. Simulation results show an availability of the proposed method.

Modal analysis or modal test is a routine process to get the modal parameters of a dynamic system. The modal parameters include the natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes. This paper presents a method that can derive the equations of motion for a dynamic system from the modal parameters obtained by the modal analysis or modal test. The present method based on the relation between the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the state space equation derives the mass, damping and stiffness matrices of the system. The numerical verifications for the simple mass-spring-damper system and the cantilevered beam prove the efficiency and accuracy of the present method.

On this study, to develop the impact absorbing system for spreader, we operated the dynamic response for models of three types consisting of spring and oil damper by the finite element analysis. Also, in the three types of impact absorbing system, we set the restricted stroke of piston to the static variables and the optimum design was operated to have the minimum value of the reaction force for the impact. As the result, the direct model of two degree of freedom system has lowest value, the model of one degree of freedom system has higher value than that and the parallel model of two degree of freedom system has the highest value. And we studied the effect that the change of spring constant and damping coefficient affect to the reaction force and as the result of the optimum design, we found that reaction force has the lowest value in the each of models.

A Suspension system of a car is composed of dampers and springs. The dampers and springs usually have nonlinear characteristics. However, the nonlinear characteristics of the springs and dampers through analytical model cannot agree with the experimental results. Therefore, the nonlinearity of the suing and damper should be known from the experimental results. In this study, the methods of system identification for nonlinear dynamic system in time domain are discussed and the nonlinear parameter estimation lot experimental data of an EF-SONATA car was done. The results show that a cubic and a coupled term should be considered to model the suspension system.

최근에 신축되는 주상복합건축물이나 대단위 아파트단지는 지상층에서 보면 각각이 독립되어 있는 별도의 소방대상물로 보이지만, 실제로는 지하층을 통하여 연결된 하나의 소방대상물이다. 이러한 건물의 지하층에서 화재가 발생하면 열이나 연기가 다른 동으로 확산되어 피해가 커질 수 있으며, 특정동의 소방펌프에서 고장이 발생하거나 우발적인 선로합선 등으로 인하여 수신기에 이상이 발생하면 전체 동에 설치된 소방시설이 정상적으로 작동되지 않는 경우가 발생하게 된다. 화재감지기의 신호에 따라 작동되는 제연댐퍼, 준비작동식 스프링 클러설비 등이 수신기에서 연동되는 과정을 인천송도에 위치한 글로벌주상복합 단지를 토대로 하여 소화 및 제연설비의 연동실태를 분석하였다.

This Paper deals with the design of Moving Magnet type Linear Oscillatory Actuator(MM-LOA) using spring damper based on the design procedure and the characteristic analysis. MM-LOA is applied to variable load such as vaccum pump and compressor, The structure of piston type is selected to reduce a noise. MM-LOA has over-displacement in starting state because of the low inertia of mover To improve the starting characteristic, spring damper is used. The optimum spring constant of spring damper is detected and in consideration of spring damper, MM-LOA redesigned. The parameter is calculated by Finite Element Method(FEM). For the dynamic characteristic analysis, time differential method composed of voltage and kinetic equation is used. The propriety of the improved model is verified through the experimental results.

The suspension system of cars is composed of dampers and springs, which usually have nonlinear characteristics. The nonlinear characteristics make the differences in the results of analytical models and experiments. In this study, the nonlinear system identification method which does not assume a special form for nonlinear dynamic systems and minimize the error by calculating the error reduction ratio is devised to estimate the nonlinear parameters of the suspension system of an EF-SONATA car from the field running test data. The results show that the spring has a cubic nonlinear term and the damper has a coupled nonlinear term. Also, the numerical results with the estimated nonlinear parameters agree well with the field test data for the different running speeds.
