수중 압전 에너지 하베스터(Piezoelectric Energy Harvester, PEH) 설계시 곡률변화를 통해 외팔보형 전체의 와류유기진동(Vortex Induced Vibration, VIV)을 생성시키고, VIV의 생성으로 곡면형 외팔보 PEH에 진동 변위가 증가한다는 것은 실제 전력을 증대 시키는 데 중요한 요소이다. 해석 모델인 곡면형 PEH의 재질은 Polyvinyline Di-Floride(PVDF) 압전 필름으로서 곡률이 다양한 50 mm, 130 mm, 210 mm 모델에 유속은 0.1 m/s ~ 0.50 m/s로 정하여 VIV에 의한 PEH의 스트레인 에너지 변화를 관찰하였다. 곡률 반경이 작을수록 큰 폭의 VIV가 나타났고, 유속이 증가할수록 VIV가 많이 나타났다. 작은 곡률로 인한 급격한 형상변환이 VIV의 생성에 효과적이었고 스트레인 에너지, 정규화 발생 전압, 평균 전력 등은 곡률이 증가할수록 감소하였다. PEH 자체의 전력량을 증대시키기 위해 급한경사의 곡률 개선뿐만 아니라 곡률형 PEH의 개수가 늘어남에 따라 평균 전력도 상승할 것으로 사료된다.

This study suggests a simple two-step method for structural vibration-based health monitoring for beam-like structures which only utilizes mode shape curvature and few natural frequencies of the structures in order to detect and localize cracks. The method is firstly based on the application of wavelet transform to detect crack locations from mode shape curvature. Then particle swarm optimization is applied to evaluate crack depth. As the Rayleigh quotient is introduced to estimate natural frequencies of cracked beams, the relationship of natural frequencies and crack depths can be easily obtained with only a simple formula. The method is demonstrated and validated numerically, using the numerical examples (cantilever beam and simply supported shaft) in the literature, and experimentally for a cantilever beam. Our results show that mode shape curvature and few estimated natural frequencies can be used to detect crack locations and depths precisely even under a certain level of noise. The method can be extended for health monitoring of other more complicated structures.

This paper presents a preliminary study to monitor the lateral behavior of pile foundation using multiplexed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. In the preliminary study, an 1.7 meter long cantilever beam with the shape of square hollow box was fabricated and tested under the static loading. Four FBG sensors were multiplexed in a single optical fiber and installed into the top and bottom of the cantilever beam. The strains are directly measured from FBG sensors followed by curvature calculations based on the plane section assumption. Vertical deflections are then estimated using the regression analyses based on the geometric relationships. It has been found that excellent correlation with conventional sensing system was observed. The success of the test encourages the use of the FBG sensing system as a monitoring system for pile foundations. However, further consideration should be given in the case of the sensor malfunction for the practical purpose.

This paper reports a new analytical method to calculate the planar displacement of structures. The cross-sections were assumed to remain in plane and the deflection curve was evaluated using the curvature values geometrically, despite being solved with differential equations. The deflection curve was parameterized with the arc-length of the curvature values, and was taken as an assembly of chains of circular arcs. Fast and accurate solutions of complex deflections can be obtained easily. This paper includes a comparison of the nonlinear displacements of an elastic tapered cantilever beam with a uniform moment distribution among the proposed analytical method, numerical method of the theory and large deflection FEM solutions.

In this paper, a new damage-detection method based on structural vibration is proposed. The essence of the proposed method is the detection of abrupt changes in rotation. Damage-induced rotation (DIR), which is determined from the modal flexibility of the structure, initially occurs only at a specific damaged location. Therefore, damage can be localized by evaluating abrupt changes in rotation. We conducted numerical simulations of two damage scenarios using a 10-story cantilever-type building model. Measurement noise was also considered in the simulation. We compared the sensitivity of the proposed method to localize damage to that of two conventional modal-flexibility-based damage-detection methods, i.e., uniform load surface (ULS) and ULS curvature. The proposed method was able to localize damage in both damage scenarios for cantilever structures, but the conventional methods could not.

Equations of motion of rotating cantilever curved beams are derived based on a dynamic modeling method developed in this paper. The Kane's method is employed to derive the equations of motion. Different from the classical linear modeling method which employs two cylindrical deformation variables, the present modeling method employs a non-cylindrical variable along with a cylindrical variable to describe the elastic deformation. The derived equations (governing the stretching and the bending motions) are coupled but linear. So they can be directly used for the vibration analysis. The coupling effect between the stretching and the bending motions which could not be considered in the conventional modeling method is considered in this modeling method. The natural frequencies of the rotating curved beams versus the rotating speed are calculated for various radii of curvature and hub radius ratios.

When a tubular cantilever beam is loaded by a dynamic force applied transversely at its tip, the strain hardening of the material tends to increase the load carrying capacity and local buckling and cross-sectional overlization occurring in the tube section tends to reduce the moment carrying capacity and results in structural softening. A theoretical model is presented in this paper to analyze the deformation of a tubular beam in a dynamic response mode. Based on a large deflection analysis, the hardening/softening M-${\kappa}$ relationship is introduced. The main interest is on the curvature development history and the deformed configuration of the beam.

This paper presents a numerical model developed to evaluate the load-deflection and moment-curvature relationship for concrete beams strengthened externally with four different Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite systems. The developed model considers the inelastic behavior of concrete section subjected to a combined axial force and bending moment. The model accounts for tensile strength of concrete as defined by the modulus of rupture of concrete. Based on the adopted material constitutive relations, the model evaluates the sectional curvature as a function of the applied axial load and bending moment. Deflections along the beam are evaluated using a finite difference technique taking into account support conditions. The developed numerical technique has been tested on a cantilever beam with a transverse load applied at its end. A study of the behavior of the beam with tension reinforcement compared to that with FRP areas giving an equivalent ultimate moment has been carried out. Moreover, cracking of the section in the tensile region at ultimate load has also been considered. The results indicated that beams reinforced with FRP systems possess more ductility than those reinforced with steel. This ductility, however, can be tuned by increasing the area of FRP or by combining different FRP layers.

본 연구는 광섬유 브래그 격자(fiber Bragg grating, FBG)센서를 이용하여 캔틸레버의 수직 처짐을 산정하고 이를 통하여 횡방향 하중을 받는 말뚝기초 거동 분석을 위한 사전연구를 수행하는데 목적이 있다. 말뚝기초를 모형화한 길이 1.7 m의 정방 중공 형강 내민보를 실험실에 설치하고 실험체 측면의 상하부 표면에 4개의 센서로 다중화 된 2쌍의 FBG 센서를 설치하였다. 결과 비교를 위해 FBG 센서가 설치된 동일 위치에 전기식 게이지를 설치하였다. 하중은 고정 단에서 1.47m 지점에 엑츄에이터를 통한 변위 제어 방법으로 재하 하였다. 실험을 통해 측정된 FBG 센서의 파장변화로부터 변형률과 곡률을 산정하였고 기하학적 처짐-곡률관계와 회귀분석을 통하여 처짐을 유추하였다. FBG 센서를 통해 산정된 변형률과 처짐을 각각 전기식 게이지의 변형률 측정값, 이론 처짐값과 비교분석 하였다. 측정된 FBG 센서와 전기식 게이지의 변형률은 근사한 결과를 나타내었으며, 이론적으로 산출한 처짐과 FBG 센서로부터 도출한 처짐도 우수한 상관관계를 보였다. 실험결과를 통하여 FBG 센서를 도입한 말뚝 기초 거동분석을 성공적으로 이루어내기 위해서는 FBG 센서로 측정 가능한 한계 변위의 산정 및 증대 방안이 필요하며, 센서 오작동시 대처 방법에 대한 추가 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.
