In this stury, control performance of tuned mass damper (TMD) with torsional rigidity for an eccentric structure showing torsional responses is investigated. To this end, an eccentric structure subjected to earthquake excitation is used to evaluate the control performance of torsional TMD by varying installed location and torsional rigidity of TMD, To reduce computational time required for repetitive time history analysis of an example structure having non-proportional damping system due to TMD, an equivalent analytical model is used in this study. Torsional properties of TMD usually neglected in typical TMD are verified to be effective in reduction of torsional responses of the eccentric structure. In the case of eccentric structures, it has been seen that the center of a plane of a structure may not be optimal location of TMD.

1998년 12월부터 1999년 5월까지 총 10일간 소백산천문대의 61cm 망원경과 PM512 CCD 카메라를 이용하여 W UMa형 접촉 식쌍성 AM Cnc의 CCD 측광관측을 수행하여 BVI 광도곡선을 완성하였다. 새로운 광도곡선으로부터 주극심시각 2점, 부극심시각 3점을 얻었다. 이 관측치를 포함하여 AH Cnc의 관측된 모든 극심시각을 수집하여 분석한 결과, 영년 주기 증가를 보이고, 변화 원인을 질량이 큰 별에서 질량이 작은 별로의 보존적 질량이동에 의한 것으로 해석하였다. 영년주기 증가율은 3.18$\times$$10^{-7}$ day/year이다. 새로운 BVI 광도곡선을 WD 쌍성 모델의 접촉모드(Mode 3)로 분석하여 측광해를 산출하였고, 측광해의 결과는 질량비 0.159, 궤도경사각 86$^{\circ}$, 접촉도(fill-out factor) 49%등으로 계산되었다. 측광해를 Sandquist & Shetrone(2003)의 연구결과와 비교하면 질량비와 궤도경사각은 거의 같고, 접촉도는 약간 작은 값이다. 작은 값이다.

The studies of seismic response control are mainly conducted on rahmen structure until now. Spatial structures have the different dynamic characteristics from general rahmen structures. So, the results of these studies are very limited for vibration control and seismic design of spatial structures. TMD(Tuned Mass Damper) is one of the vibration control device that is mainly used to reduce the vibration level of high-rised building, bridge or stadium structure. In this study, an arch structure was used as an example structure because it has primary characteristics of spatial structures and the seismic behaviour of spatial structures may fundamentally differ from the conventional building structures. So, the vibration control performance is evaluated according to the change of TMD mass and TMD location. It is reasonable to install TMD at the quarter point that is dominant mode vector of 1st mode, And it is appropriate that TMD mass ratio is 2% in the seismic response control of arch structure.

The purpose of this study is to verify the transfer function of input acceleration and output control force by linearizing a velocity-dependent damping term of Liquid Column Vibration Absorber (LCVA). Analytical and experimental research is conducted to identify natural frequency, damping ratio and participated mass ratio of LCVA with various section ratios of vertical and horizontal areas. Findings obtained experimentally by the shaking table test are compared with analytical findings using optimization technique with constraints. The results indicate that the level of liquid and section ratio of LCVA affect the characteristics of damping ratio and mass ratio. Damping and mass ratio increase as the section of vertical column of LCVA decreases, due to turbulence in the elbow of LCVA.

We present newly observed BVRI CCD light curves for low mass ratio contact binaries, HN UMa and II UMa. The absolute dimensions of these objects were obtained by applying the Wilson-Devinney program to previously published spectroscopic analysis and to our observed photometric data. The evolutionary status of all 21 low mass ratio contact binary system including HN UMa and II UMa was then considered. The secondaries of all low mass ratio contact binaries are located below the zero age main sequence in HR diagram. This phenomenon could be explained by mass loss from the secondary component in the low mass contact binary system because even small mass loss affects luminosity decrease in the low mass stars.

두 물체의 충격운동량-충격 및 탄성파 발생의 순으로 작용하도록 하면 계 내에서 충돌 후 생기는 운동량의 관성 속도와 충돌기간동안 발생하는 탄성파의 충격에너지 전달속도가 다른 경우가 있다. 이것은 충돌기간동안 총 운동량은 보존되나 선 운동량이 비 보존되는 경우가 있어서 충돌기간동안 비 보존된 내부 운동량의 시간 적분만큼 충돌을 가한 질량중심이 이동했다는 의미이다. 충돌기간동안 충격파는 탄성파에 근사시키고 그것은 군속도에 근사시켜 이론적 근거를 만들고 실험에 의해 확인했다. 폐쇄된 계 내에서 내부에너지를 이용하여 특별한 두 물체의 충돌기간동안 비 보존되는 운동량 때문에 질량중심이 이동되는 것에 대해 해석한다.

New BVR CCD light curves of the low mass ratio contact binaries, V410 Aur and V776 Cas, were observed with the 61 cm reflector and a 2K CCD camera at the Sobaeksan Astronomical Observatory. The absolute dimensions of the low mass ratio contact binaries, V410 Aur and V776 Cas, were obtained using WD program from the published spectroscopic and newly observed photometric data. The evolutionary status of this type of binary system including V410 Aur and V776 Cas has been considered. We reconfirmed that the primary stars of the low mass contact binary system were located on the TAMS and secondary stars were located under the ZAMS in H-R diagram.

A conventional passive TMD is only effective when it is tuned properly. In many practical applications, inevitable off-tuning of a TMD occurs because the mass in a building floor could change by moving furnishings, people gathering, etc. when TMDs are offtuned, TMDs their effectiveness is sharply reduced. Moreover, the off-tuned nTMDs can excessively amplify the vibration levels of the primary structures. This paper discusses the application of a new class of MR damper, for the reduction of floor vibrations due to machine and human movements. The STMD introduced uses a MR damper called to semi-active damper to achieve reduction in the floor vibration. Here, the STMD and the groundhook algorithm are applied to a single degree of freedom system representative of building floors. The performance or the STMD is compared to that or the equivalent passive TMD. In addition, the effects of off-tuning due to variations in the mass of the floor system. Comparison of the results demonstrates the efficiency and robustness or STMD with respect to equivalent TMD.

In this paper, we aimed to convert the fire curve in volume units to a fire curve per unit area for application in the Fire Dynamic Simulator (FDS) surface heat release rate method. The fire curve was expressed dimensionlessly considering the total combustion characteristic time, and improvements were made to represent the appropriate ratios for the growth , steady, and decay phases concerning the fire intensity. Additionally, a correction function for combustion characteristic time varying with mass increase was derived. Also to control the growth time values according to the increase in mass, a function to correct the growth phase ratio was derived. Consequently, utilizing existing data, a formula was established to determine the reference mass for combustion materials and predict the fire curve based on mass increase.
