This paper deals with the flexural free vibrations of circular strip foundation with the variable breadth on Pasternak soil. The breadth of strip varies with the linear functional fashion, which is symmetric about the mid-arc. Differential equations governing flexural free vibrations of such strip foundation are derived, in which the elastic soil with the shear layer, i.e. Pasternak soil, is considered. Effects of the rotatory and shear deformation are included in the governing equations. Differential equations are numerically solved to calculate the natural frequencies and mode shapes. In the numerical examples, the hinged-hinged, hinged-clamped and clamped-clamped end constraints are considered. Four lowest frequency parameters accompanied with their corresponding mode shapes are reported and parametric studies between frequency parameters and various system parameters are investigated.

The settlement of a compaction plate resting on the surface of rubble-mound and subjected to a vibrating vertical load can be characterized by a transient amplitude and a plastic settlement. As long as the maximum imposed load does not exceed the bearing capacity of the rubble-mound, plastic settlement will approach an ultimate value and essentially steady-state vibration will ensue. For the settlement behavior by vibro-compaction, most laboratory experiments were conducted on laterally confined samples with loads over the full surface area or on samples placed on a vibrating table. In the field, the loads cover only a small fraction of the surface area. In this study, crushed stones are loaded with the same as field condition. According to the vibro-compaction experiments on crushed stone, it was found that approximately 90% of total settlement occur within 2 minutes and plastic settlement increases with increasing cyclic stress levels including static and dynamic stress. A compaction equation on which the number of load cycles, amplitude of plate, settlement, width of plate, and cyclic stress are related each other is proposed.

This paper describes a series of shaking table and pseudodynamic tests for evaluation of seismic performance of base-isolated structures subjected to various seismic earthquake inputs. The main objectives of this study are : (1) evaluation of the effectiveness of base-isolation systems for low-rise structures against severe seismic loads through shaking table tests, (2) verification of the substructuring pseudodynamic test method for the base-isolated structures in comparison with the shaking table test results. In the shaking table test, a quarter scaled three-story structure base-isolated by laminated rubber bearings is tested. In the pseudodynamic test, only the laminated rubber bearing s are tested using the substructuring technique, while the concurrent seismic responses of the superstructure are computed using on-line numerical integration. Comparison with the shaking table test results indicates that the substructuring pseudodynamic test method is very effective for determining the dynamic responses of the base-isolated structure.

This paper deals with flexural-torsional free vibrations of the circular strip foundation with the variable breadth on Pasternak soil. The cross-section of the strip foundation is chosen as the rectangular one with the constant thickness and variable breadth, which is symmetrical about the mid-arc. Also, the foundation that supports the circular strip is modeled as the Pasternak soil with the shear layer. Ordinary differential equations accompanying the boundary conditions are derived. In the governing equations, the transverse, rotatory and torsional inertias are included. These equations are solved numerically and four lowest frequencies are obtained. In the numerical results, the effects of foundation parameters on frequencies are extensively investigated. It is expected that the theories and numerical results of this study can be used in the dynamic design of strip foundations.

대형시험장비가 설치되는 실험실의 계획에서 장비의 진동은 간과할 수 없는 고려사항이다. 따라서 시험장비를 지지하는 구조물과 기초의 설계시 시험장비의 운행 중 발생하는 공진을 피할 수 있는 구조적 체계의 진동특성에 대한 적절한 평가가 요구된다. 본 논문은 동적특성을 얻기 위해 바닥구조물의 FE 모델링에 관하여 기술하였다. 또한 진동저감을 위한 시험장비기초의 설계를 위해 tuning, 진동기준. 방진시스템을 검토하였다. 시험장비의 진동을 줄이는 최선의 방법은 low tuning 이였으며 이의 구현을 위해 방진스프링과 함께 단단한 콘크리트 블록위에 시험장비를 설치하였다. 총체적인 방진시스템의 구조적 진동특성은 이동성, 힘, 속도 스펙트라를 이용해 표현되었다. 전달과 지점이동 FRF의 비를 시뮬레이션을 통해 비교함으로서 바닥 슬래브의 진동전달 정도가 관찰되었다.

In this study, a random vibration technique to anaiyze the vertical vibration of rigid circular footings on sand whose material properties are not previously determind is proposed. Total of 11 circular model footings varing mass ratio and radius are constructed for the vibration experim eat and the elastic half space is represented by compacted sand layer From the random vibration experiments, it is found that the technique suggested in this study gives more accurate prediction of circular footing behavior under vertical vibration than the simplified analog which assumes the subsoils as elastic half space. The predicted resonant frequene iris agree very well with the measured values from the slnusoidal vibration experiments. The ratio of the predicted resonant amplitudes to the measured values vary between 0.5 and 1,35 for the site used for the vibration experiments in this study.

The Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) is a very important equipment for the safety of a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP). In this study, the operating vibration of three kinds of EDG systems was measured. The target EDG systems are Yonggwang 5 unit and Ulchin 2 and 3 units. The Yonggwang 5 and Ulchin 3 unit EDG systems are the same type but the foundation systems are different. One is an anchor bolt type and the other is a spring and viscous-damper type. The purpose of these measurements is for a verification of the vibration isolation effect depending on the foundation system. As a result, It can be said that the spring and viscous damper system of the EDG performed better for the vibration isolation than that of anchor bolt type.

철도주변의 쾌적한 생활환경을 유지하기 위해서는 철도차량이나 선로에서 발생하는 공기전파음과 지반을 통하여 전파되는 지반진동을 일정수준 이하 로 제어할 필요가 있으며 이러한 철도 소음진동 대책에는 기존철도에 대한 기초적인 소음진동 크기 및 특성에 대한 자료가 필요하다. 국내에서는 이제 까지 철도소음진동에 대한 특별한 자료수집이나 대책에 큰 관심을 기울여 오지 않고 단지 철로주변에서는 어쩔수 없이 철도소음진동의 피해를 감수할 수 밖에 없다는 소극적인 태도를 취해왔으며 최근에 들어서야 환경의식 증 가로 철로변 거주자들의 민원에 대한 대책으로서 일부 구간에서 방음벽을 설치하고 있는 실정이다. 더우기 경부고속철도 건설이 이미 시작된 현시점에 서 철도 소음진동 실태나 기준등이 정립되어 있지 못하여 추후 철도주변의 소음진동문제를 어떻게 대책을 수립해 나가야 할지에 대한 기본적인 자료수 집 및 관련연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 상황에서 기존 철도의 소음진동 시간 변동특성, 거리감쇠특성, 주파수특성 및 철도진 동의 진동방향 특성을 측정 분석하여 추후 철도소음진동 관련 대책이나 기 준수립에 기초자료로 제시하고자 한다.

The effect of characteristics of ground and circular foundation on the dynamic behavior of the foundation in vertical motion are considered using an approximated analytical solution and a finite element analysis with absorbing (consistent transmitting) boundary. The shear wave velocity of homogeneous ground affects the resonant frequency of the foundation much but has nothing to do with the maximum response amplitude at resonant frequency. The density in this case affects both the resonant frequency and the maximum response. The size and the mass of the circular foundation are related both to the resonant frequency and the maximum response. However, Poisson's ratio has very little effect on dynamic behavior of the foundation. When the ground is not homogeneous but has the layers, different formations of shear wave velocities would also change the maximum response at resonant frequency.
