A study was carried out to investigate the fluid-structure interaction phenomena of buried hydrophone system that exposed complex loads due to handling, transportation and installation. The buried hydrophone system has necessarily neighborhood structures for installation. Because of the neighborhood structure, acoustic field is deformed. We analyze the piezoelectric-structural-acoustic coupled problem and the results to use a finite element analysis software, ANSYS, which has an coupled field analysis capability. The effect of the component of hydrophone system is revealed altogether in pressure distribution. So, we classify and analyze the problem by four different compositions for decomposition.

This paper presents a finite element analysis of the electromechanical field in the spindle motor of a computer hard disk drive considering the speed control and mechanical flexibility. The driving circuit equation is modified by considering the switching action of PWM inverter, and is coupled with the Maxwell equation to obtain the nonlinear time-stepping finite element equation for the analysis of magnetic field. Magnetic force and torque are calculated by the Maxwell stress tensor. Mechanical motion of a rotor is determined by a time-stopping finite element method considering the flexibility of shaft, rotor and bearing. Both magnetic and mechanical finite element equations are combined in the closed loop to control the speed using PWM. Simulation results are verified by the experiments, and they are in food agreement with the experimental results.

In this study, one-way fluid structure interaction analysis(FSI) on wind turbine blade was performed. Both a quantitative fluid analysis on 3-bladed wind turbine and a structural analysis using the surface pressure data resulting from fluid analysis were carried out. Streamlines and angle of attack was easily acquired from analysis results, we showed the inlet velocity that the stall begins to occur. In the structural analysis, structural displacement and maximum stress of the two comparative models was calculated. The location that has maximum stress was found. The pressure difference between back and front part of the blade increases as the inlet velocity increase. The torque and maximum with regard to inlet velocity was also presented.

The strengthening in terms of efficiency, easy, economics is very popular method when it is applied to a damaged structures. The purpose of this study develops anchorage system that supports enough strengthening effect without any damage. In addition it is checked whether the method can be conveniently applied to structures. To verify strengthening effect a flexural experiments were performed. Four concrete beams were constructed and tested. Deflections, strains and modes of failure were recorded to examine strengthen of beams. Comparing crack load of each experimental data, yielding load, ultimate load, ductility index, and tendon stress were analyzed.

In this study, the evaluation of the aerodynamic characteristics of the NREL Phase VI Rotor System has been performed, for the 7 m/s upwind case using commercial FEA and CFD tools which are ANSYS Mechanical 12.1 and CFX 12.1. The initial operating conditions of the rotor blade include a $3^{\circ}$ tip pitch angle. A numerical simulation was carried out on only the rotor parts, excluding the tower structure based on the equivalent stiffness model, to consider the aeroelastic effect for the numerical simulation using the loosely coupled 2-way fluid-structure interaction method. The blade root bending moment was monitored in real time to obtain reasonable results. To verify the analysis results, the numerical simulation results were compared with the measurements in the form of the root bending moment and the pressure distributions of the NREL/NASA Ames wind tunnel test.

본 논문에서는 코리올리 효과를 가진 압전-구조 시스템의 주파수응답 해석을 효율적으로 수행하기 위한 크리로프 부공간 모델차수축소법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 초기 유한요소모델과 축소모델의 전달함수의 계수인 모멘트를 일치시키는 방법을 이용하는 축소기법으로 이미 대형 유한요소모델의 주파수응답 해석에 효과적으로 이용되고 있다. 예제로 고려된 압전형 미소 각속도계의 해석에는 압전구동 하중과 구조체의 회전에 따른 원심력이 동시에 입력하중으로 고려되는 다중입력의 경우이므로 변환행렬 V의 생성시, block Arnoldi 과정을 이용하여 두 하중의 효과를 축소모델에 함께 고려한다. 본 문제에 제안된 축소기법을 이용한 결과, 축소모델을 이용하여 원래 시스템의 관심영역의 주파수응답을 작은 차수의 모델로도 정확하게 계산할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 방법을 이용하면 다양한 가진조건과 각속도 입력 하에서의 주파수응답을 정확하고 더욱 효율적으로 계산할 수 있을 것이다.

This study proposed the applicability of inverse stiffness method on the seismic design for steel frame with buckling restrained braces and the design results were compared with former research's. The concept of this method is simple and efficient. Furthermore it is able to reflect the high mode's effect and control the ductility factors of each story individually. Design results using the proposed method showed that according to increase of the given target drift, the areas of brace generally decreased but partially increased in some stories of the tall structure with very large ductility. And the post yield stiffness ratio's variation had more effect on the design results in the small post yield stiffness ratio.

In this paper, the optimization of direct design system of steel frames by genetic algorithm involving advanced analysis are performed. For the analysis of steel frames advanced analysis accounting for geometric nonlinearity and material nonlinearity are executed. The genetic algorithm was used as optimization technique. The weight of structures is treated as the objective function. The constraint functions are defined by load-carrying capacities, deflections, inter-story drifts, and ductility requirement. The effectiveness of the proposed method are verified by comparing the results of the proposed method with those of other method.

With the steady increase in the annual number of earthquakes in South Korea, the need to apply seismic reinforcement on public facilities has recently increased. To reinforce seismic capacity, spaced full-column-height steel bars are attached to column faces. In this study, nonlinear finite element analysis was conducted to analyze the effect of external reinforcement steel bars on the seismic capacity of RC columns with a square or rectangular cross-section. For verification, the analysis results were compared with test results. Results showed that the finite element analysis reasonably predicted the actual structural behavior of RC columns with steel bars. In addition, both the analysis and the test results showed that the failure mode was converted from brittle failure to ductile fracture, owing to the external reinforcement steel bars. Both loading capacity and ductility were increased as well. Therefore, the external reinforcement steel bar can effectively enhance the seismic capacity of existing RC columns. This study is expected to contribute to relevant research areas such as the development of design methods.
