The explicit finite element method is an essential tool for solving large problems with severe nonlinear characteristics, but its results can be difficult to interpret. In particular, it can be impossible to evaluate its acceleration responses because of severe discontinuity, extreme noise or aliasing. We suggest a new post-processing method for transient responses and their response spectra. We propose smoothing methods using a Gaussian kernel without in depth knowledge of the complex frequency characteristics; such methods are successfully used in the filtering of digital signals. This smoothing can be done by measuring the velocity results and monitoring the response spectra. Gaussian kernel smoothing gives a better smoothness and representation of the peak values than other approaches do. The floor response spectra can be derived using smoothed accelerations for the design.

The shock performance of hard disk drives has been a serious issue for portable computers and AV application HDD. Focusing on the motion of an actuator, we investigated non-operational shock mechanism and studied several parameters that affect the shock performance by experimental analysis. It was found that there are two important factors fort the actuator to endure high shock revel. One is a shock transmissibility and the other is a beating between the arm blade and the suspension. To generalize the shock transmissibility, the concept of shock response spectrum was introduced. The shock response spectrum of the actuator system was obtained experimentally and compared with that of an analytical single degree of freedom model. It was found that there was a good agreement. The first bending natural frequency of the arm blade was found to be the most important factor for the low shock transmissibility. By applying the shock response spectrum and avoiding the beating, we could design an actuator of high shock performance.

The purpose of this study was to compare the dynamic behavior of STEDEF track that of the sleeper floating track on urban rapid transit according to replacing the resilience pads and analyze the necessity of replacing the resilience pads experimentally. It was analyzed that the uniformity of the track support stiffness could be secured by replacing the used resilience pads with new resilience pads. Therefore, by replacing the used resilience pads, the measured track impact factor was found to be dramatically reduced below the track design standard, and it was analyzed that the track support stiffness could be restored to the design value. As a results, it is possible to restore track support stiffness to the design value and reduce track impact factor by replacing timely resilience pads, which is important to securing durability and improving service life of track components.

적충되어 있는 다중 블록 시스템은 역사적 건물이나 문화재등에 자주 사용되고 있다. 이러한 구조시스템은 지진에 매우 취약하고, 특히 세장한 구조물인 경우에는 낮은 수준의 지반가속도에 대해서도 전도가 일어날 수 있다. 지진으로부터 이러한 구조물을 보호할 수 있는 방법중의 하나로써 지진격기받침의 사용을 들 수 있으나, 아직 격리받침이 설치되어 있는 다중블록의 거동에 대해서는 잘 알려지지 않는 실정이다. 이 논문에서는 각각 P-F 시스템, FPS, LRB 시스템이 설치되어 있을때의 세장한 강체 블록의 동적거동에 대해 살펴보았다. P-F 시스템과 FPS에서의 마찰모델은 Coulomb의 마찰법칙을 이용하였도, 상부구조물은 붙음(stick)모드와 록킹(rocking) 모드만이 존재하도록 가정하였다. 충격은 개별요소법(distinct element method, DEM)을 이용해 기술하였고, 조화입력운동에 대한 응답을 조사하였다.

The piezoelectric thin film(PVDF: polyvinylidene fluoride) sensors having good dynamic sensing charachteristics can be used to monitor low vwlocit impact on composite structures. The impact response function for composite sandwich beam was derved. The impact tests at low energy without inducing damage were performed on the instrumented drop weight impact tester. The measured signals of PVDF sensors attached on the surface of the beam agreed well with the simulated signals. And the inverse technique was applied to reconstruct the impact forces from the PVDF sensor signals. Most of reconstructed impact forces showed good agreement with the measured forces. The comparison results showed that the piezoelectric thin film sensor can be used to monitor the low velocity impact on composite sandwich structures.

To evaluate the vertical loads on railway bridges, conventional load tests are typically conducted. However, these tests often entail significant costs and procedural challenges. Railway conditions involve nearly identical load profiles due to standardized rail systems, which may appear straightforward in terms of load conditions. Nevertheless, this study aims to validate load tests conducted under operational train conditions by comparing the results with those obtained from conventional load tests. Additionally, static and dynamic structural behaviors are extracted from the measurement data for evaluation. To ensure the reliability of load testing, this research demonstrates feasibility through comparisons of existing measurement data with sensor attachment locations, train speeds, responses between different rail lines, tendency analysis, selection of impact coefficients, and analysis of natural frequencies. This study applies to the Dongho Railway Bridge and verifies the applicability of the proposed method. Ten operational trains and 44 sensors were deployed on the bridge to measure deformations and deflections during load test intervals, which were then compared with theoretical values. The analysis results indicate good symmetry and overlap of loads, as well as a favorable comparison between static and dynamic load test results. The maximum measured impact coefficient (0.092) was found to be lower than the theoretical impact coefficient (0.327), and the impact influence from live loads was deemed acceptable. The measured natural frequencies approximated the theoretical values, with an average of 2.393Hz compared to the calculated value of 2.415Hz. Based on these results, this paper demonstrates that for evaluating vertical loads, it is possible to measure deformations and deflections of truss railway bridges through load tests under operational train conditions without traffic control, enabling the calculation of response factors for stress adjustments.

The radiated sound pressure induced by tapping test is obtained by solving the Rayleigh integral equation. For structurally radiated sound, the sound field is directly coupled to the structural motion. Therefore the impact response should be analyzed. In this paper, the delamination model is used to analyze the impact response of delaminated composite laminates. And efficient spring-mass model has been proposed to model hammer shaped impactor. Predicted sound pressure histories are compared with test data. The influence of damage on the sound pressure and impacted force history of laminates were investigated. The results show that both radiated sound pressure and impact force history are strongly influenced by delamination on laminates. As a result, it is shown that the presented sound based tapping method was found to be reliable for detecting the damage in composite laminate.

A dynamic analysis procedure is developed to provide a better estimation of the dynamic responses of pre-stressed concrete (PSC) box girder bridges on the Korea high speed railway. Particularly, a three dimensional numerical model including the structural interaction between high speed vehicles, bridges and railway endures to analyze accurately and evaluate with in-depth parametric studies for dynamic responses of bridge due to the high speed railway vehicles. Three dimensional frame element is used to model the PSC box girder bridges, simply supported span lengths 40 m. The high-speed railway vehicles (K-TGV) including a locomotive are used as 38-degree of freedom system. Three displacements (vertical, lateral, and longitudinal) as well as three rotational components (pitching, rolling, and yawing) are considered in the 38-degree of freedom model. The dynamic analysis by Runge-Kutta method which are able to analyze considering the dynamic impact factors are compared and contrasted. It is proposed as an empirical formula that the impact factors damaged the bridge load-carrying capacities occurs to the bride due to high-speed vehicle.
