This paper presents the vibration control performance of the smart passive control system to suppress the undesired vibration of the structure subjected to the earthquake loadings. Smart passive control system is the MR damper-based control system augmented with electromagnetic induction(EMI) device which consists of permanent magnets and solenoid coils. According to the Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, an EMI device produces electrical energy from the mechanical energy due to the reciprocal motions of the structure and provide it to the MR damper. The smart passive control system can be the simple and easy to implement and maintain control system by replacing the feedback control system including sensors, controllers and external power sources of the conventional MR damper-based semiactive control system with the EMI device. The control performance of the smart passive control system is evaluated through the set of shaking table test considering the various historical earthquake loadings.

The dynamic interactions between the reactor vessel and the control element drive mechanisms (CEDMs) of a pressurized water reactor are studied with the simplified mathematical model. The CEDMs are modeled as multiple substructures having different masses and the reactor vessel as a single degree of freedom system. The explicit equation for the frequency responses of the multiple substructure system are presented for the case of harmonic base excitations. The optimum dynamic characteristics of the CEDMs are presented to reduce the dynamic responses of the reactor vessel. The mathematical model and its response equations are verified by finite element analysis for the detailed model of the reactor vessel and the CEDMs for the harmonic base excitations. It is finally shown that the optimal dynamic characteristics of the CEDM presented can be applicable for the aseismic design.

This paper presents a fast back-type transfer device for snack food processing that uses the inertia of transferred material. A conventional conveying system is a drive system that uses a belt conveyor and mechanical crank, which generate noise and vibration and cause environmental pollution. Vibration and noise are reduced in the proposed fast back feeding device by using a counterweight. The crank drive unit was replaced with a linear servomotor, and an equilibrium device was designed to balance the force due to acceleration. This makes it is possible to adjust the forward and backward speed and acceleration through PLC control. A vibration damper device offsets the vibration force of the periodic shock form. The main cause of the vibration was identified through vibration analysis, and reduction measures were established. We verified the effectiveness of the vibration by making a prototype and performing about 10 vibration tests. Because no mechanical transducer is needed, energy loss, noise, and vibration do not occur, and the operating speed is not limited.

선박은 화물 및 여객을 수송하는 해상교통 수단으로써 여객 및 승무원의 안락성, 탑재장비, 기기의 성능 보전 상, 화물 및 구조부재의 안전성 차원에서 진동제어가 주요 해결 기술의 하나이다. 또한 최근 선박의 대형화, 고속화로 인해 엔진과 프로펠러의 기진력은 커지는데 반해 구조 강도계산 기술의 발달로 인해 선체구조 경량화가 촉진되어 선체의 유연성이 커질 뿐 아니라 전통적인 선체 구조와 기관, 축계 강성사이의 균형이 깨어짐으로 선박의 진동제어는 더욱 중요시 되고 있다. 선박의 경우 건조 후에 진동제어를 위한 조치를 취하는 일은 매우 제한적이고 많은 비용이 들기 때문에 설계단게에서 선박진동제어를 위한 사전 노력이 충분히 이루어지는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 선박의 주 기진원인 프로펠러, 주기관 등의 기진력 자체를 적정화하는 노력과 함께 그로 인한 응답을 극소화하기 위해 설계 단계부터 인도까지 단게별로 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 단계별 진동제어의 한 예를 Fig.1에서 보여주고 있다[1]. 선체와 같이 복잡한 대형구조물의 진동특성 및 응답을 계산함에 있어서 컴퓨터의 발달과 유한요소법과 같은 해석기술의 발달로 실제 구조와 매우 유사한 3차원 모델링이 가능하게 되어 해석의 정도를 높일 수 있게 되었다. 그러나 프로펠러 기진력, 유체와의 연성효과, 감쇠특성 등을 정도 높게 산정하는 데는 아직도 많은 어려움이 있다. 이와같은 문제는 진동응답의 계산정도를 저하시키는 주요 요인이 되어 설게단계에서 충분히 진동 제어가 이루어졌다 하더라도 건조 후 실제운항 시 진동문제가 발생되는 경우가 있다. 건조 후 진동문제 발생시 구조변경을 통한 해결은 한계가 있기 때문에 각종 진동제어 장치의 연구개발이 최근에 활발히 이루어지고 있다[2]. 본 고에서는 설계단계에서부터 건조 후까지의 선박진동제어 과정[1,2,5,6]을 단계별로 고찰하여, 점점 까다로워져 가는 선박 진동규제[3,4]에 대처하고 승무원의 안락성에 대한 욕구, 구조물의 안전성, 장비의 성능보존이 만족되는 저진동 선박의 건조를 위해 향후 해결해야할 과제들을 도출하여 선박진동분야이 연구개발 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

In this study, damping control devices were applied to the suspension system of a capsule train, and the effects were investigated to improve the ride comfort. The superconductor electrodynamic suspension (SC-EDS) method is used for the capsule train levitation. This method has advantages such as no gap control and a large gap. However, the SC-EDS method has disadvantages such as large gap variation and small damping characteristics against outer vibration, which causes degradation of the ride comfort. In this study, the damping control devices in the primary and secondary suspension were considered to improve the ride comfort in the capsule train. Damping control devices in the primary and secondary suspension can reduce the vibration transmission from outer disturbances to the bogie and from the bogie to the car body, respectively. Simulations for dynamic characteristics analyses were conducted based on the capsule train dynamic model to investigate the effects of the damping control devices on the ride comfort. As a result, it was confirmed that the ride comfort requirements according to the ISO standard can be satisfied by applying the damping control in the capsule train suspension.

When structural design of a tall building is conducted, reduction of wind-induced lateral displacement is one of the most important problem. For this purpose, additional dampers and vibration control devices are generally considered. In this process, control performance of additional devices are usually investigated for optimal design without variation of characteristics of a structure. In this study, multi-objective integrated optimization of structure-smart control device is conducted and possibility of reduction of structural resources of a tall building with additional smart damping device has been investigated. To this end, a 60-story diagrid building structure is used as an example structure and artificial wind loads are used for evaluation of wind-induced responses. An MR damper is added to the conventional TMD to develop a smart TMD. Because dynamic responses and the amount of structural material and additional smart damping devices are required to be reduced, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is employed in this study. After numerical simulation, various optimal designs that can satisfy control performance requirement can be obtained by appropriately reducing the amount of structural material and additional smart damping device.

The linear motor has not only no backlash and less friction, resulting in very high accuracy, but also mechanical simplicity, higher reliability, and longer lifetime. In this study, a large-capacity hybrid mass damper using linear motor principle has been developed to suppress vibration of large structures. It is designated linear motor damper in this paper. The LMD has been designed to be able to move the auxiliary damper mass of 155kg up to $\pm$250mm stroke. A series of performance tests for LMD control system with $H_{winfty}$ robust controller have been carried out on the full-scale steel frame structure. Through the performance tests, it is confirmed that vibration response levels are reduced down 10dB for the first and second modes of the test structure.
