다음 세대의 우주 비행선(spacecraft) 및 우주 구조물 등은 매우 정밀한 수행 능력은 물론 발사 경비의 절감을 위해 자체 무게를 최대한 줄일 수 있는 설계 방안을 요구하고 있다. 이같은 중 요한 요구 조건들을 만족시킬 수 있는 진동 제어의 한 방법으로써 재료 고유진동감쇠(material damping)의 효과적인 응용이 매우 중요시 되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 열기류(Thermal currents)에 의해 발생하는 열탄성 진동감쇠(thermoelastic damping)를 연관 열탄성학(coupled thermoelasticity)에 근거하여 해석적으로 추정하고 진동감쇠율에 구조적, 기하학적 형태가 미치는 영향에 관해 고찰하였다. 단일 구조물의 형태, 경계조건 및 진동모우드 등이 진동감쇠에 미치는 영향을 새로운 계수로서 공식화 하였으며 아울러 최대 진동 감쇠율을 얻을 수 있는 최적조건을 고찰하였다.

This paper deals with the thermo-elastic damping (TED) due to the temperature change in a beam when it is in a resonant condition. Based on previous references, the analytical formulation for TED of a resonant thin beam was derived, and then TED was expressed as a function of the geometry of the beam, especially, its thickness. It was clearly shown that TED of a resonant beam is significantly varied for different thickness. Finally, the worst thickness of the beam has been identified in regard to the high-Q factor, and the result was compared to the finite element analysis.

In a previous study, a structure of a superplastic yoke consisting of a thin FR4 layer laminated with viscoelastic tape on both sides of a shape memory alloy (SMA) was proposed to reduce residual vibration generated by a deployable solar panel during high motion of a satellite. Damping properties of viscoelastic tapes will change with temperature, which can directly affect vibration reduction performance of the yoke. To check damping performance of the yoke at different temperatures, free damping tests were performed under various temperature conditions to identify the temperature range where the damping performance was maximized. Based on above temperature test results, this paper predicts temperature of the yoke through orbital thermal analysis so that the yoke can have effective damping performance even if it is exposed to an orbital thermal environment. In addition, the thermal design method was described so that the yoke could have optimal vibration reduction performance.

Gyeongju bentonite is a buffer material primarily considered in Korea and it is highly compacted as a part of an engineered barrier system (EBS) of high-level radioactive waste repository. The compacted bentonite undergoes swelling stress by groundwater penetration and thermal stress by decay heat from a canister. Therefore, the mechanical properties of the compacted bentonite buffer material is crucial for the performance assessment of EBS. This paper aims to evaluate deformation properties of Gyeongju compacted bentonite using seismic methods. Two sets of compacted bentonite specimens were prepared having dry densities of $1.59g/cm^3$ and $1.75g/cm^3$ with water contents of 10.6% and 8.7%. Free-free resonant column tests were performed to measure constrained and unconstrained compression wave velocities. With the measured wave velocities, Young's modulus ($E_{max}$) and constrained modulus ($M_{max}$), material damping ratio ($D_{min}$), and Poisson's ratio at small strain were determined. As results, this paper evaluates the deformation properties of Gyeongju compacted bentonite and compares them with the results of previous researches.

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are smart materials. The unique characteristics of SMAs enable the production of large force and displacement. Hence, SMAs can be used in many applications such as in actuators and active structural acoustic controllers; the SMAs can also be used for dynamic tuning and shape control. A SMA torque tube actuator consisting of SMA tubes and superelastic springs is proposed, and the behaviors of the actuator are investigated. From the results of heat transfer analysis, it is proved that the SMA torque tube actuator with both resistive heating of SMA itself and a separate conventional heating rod in the tube core has good performance. The behavior of an actuator system was analyzed by performing a contact analysis, and the twisting motion was noticed when checking the actuation. 3D SMA nonlinear constitutive equations were formulated numerically and implemented by performing a nonlinear analysis by using Abaqus UMAT.

Dynamic response analysis is conducted for a floating bridge subjected to multiple support earthquake excitation. The floating bridge used in this study is supported by discrete floating pontoons and horizontal pretension cables supported at both ends of the bridge. The bridge is modeled with finite elements and the hydrodynamic added mass and added damping due to the surrounding fluid around pontoons are obtained using boundary elements. During the analysis the concept of retardation function is utilized to consider the frequency dependency of the hydrodynamic coefficients. Multiple support excitation is introduced at both ends of the bridge and the time history response is compared to that of a simultaneous excitation. The results show that the multiple support excitation yields larger values in some responses. for example in cable tensions. than the sumultaneous excitation.
