  • Wave equation analysis programs (WEAP) such as GRLWEAP and TNOWave were primarily developed for pre-driving analysis. They can also be used for post-driving measurement applications with some refinements. In the case of pre-driving analysis, the programs are used for the purpose of selecting the right equipment for a given ground condition and controlling stresses during pile driving processes. Recently, the program is increasingly used for the post-driving measurement application, where an assessment based on a variety of input parameters such as hammer, driving system and dynamic behaviour of soil is carried out. The process of this type of analysis is quite simple and it is performed by matching accurately known parameters, such as from CAPWAP analysis, to the parameters used in GRLWEAP analysis. The parameters that are refined in the typical analysis are pile stresses, hammer energy, capacity, damping and quakes. Matching of these known quantities by adjusting hammer, cushion and soil parameters in the wave equation program results in blow counts or sets and stresses for other hammer energies and capacities and cushion configuration. The result of this analysis is output on a Bearing Graph that establishes a relationship between ultimate capacity and net set per blow. A further application of this refinement method can be applied to the assessment of dynamic formulae, which are extensively used in pile capacity calculation during pile driving process. In this paper, WEAP analysis is carried out to establish the relationship between the ultimate capacities and sets using the various parameters and using this relationship to recalibrate the dynamic formula. The results of this analysis presented show that some of the shortcoming of the dynamic formula can be overcome and the results can be improved by the introduction of a correction factor.

  • This paper proposes the application of active multiple tuned mass dampers (AMTMD) for translational and torsional response control of a simplified two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) structure, able to represent the dynamic characteristics of general asymmetric structures, under the ground acceleration. This 2DOF structure is a generalized 2DOF system of an asymmetric structure with predominant translational and torsional responses under earthquake excitations using the mode reduced-order method. Depending on the ratio of the torsional to the translational eigenfrequency, i.e. the torsional to translational frequency ratio (TTFR), of asymmetric structures, the following three cases can be distinguished: (1) torsionally flexible structures (TTFR < 1.0), (2) torsionally intermediate stiff structures (TTFR = 1.0), and (3) torsionally stiff structures (TTFR > 1.0). The even distribution of the AMTMD within the whole width and half width of the asymmetric structure, thus leading to three cases of installing the AMTMD (referred to as the AMTMD of case 1, AMTMD of case 2, AMTMD of case 3, respectively), is taken into account. In the present study, the criterion for searching the optimum parameters of the AMTMD is defined as the minimization of the minimum values of the maximum translational and torsional displacement dynamic magnification factors (DMF) of an asymmetric structure with the AMTMD. The criterion used for assessing the effectiveness of the AMTMD is selected as the ratio of the minimization of the minimum values of the maximum translational and torsional displacement DMF of the asymmetric structure with the AMTMD to the maximum translational and torsional displacement DMF of the asymmetric structure without the AMTMD. By resorting to these two criteria, a careful examination of the effects of the normalized eccentricity ratio (NER) on the effectiveness and robustness of the AMTMD are carried out in the mitigation of both the translational and torsional responses of the asymmetric structure. Likewise, the effectiveness of a single ATMD with the optimum positions is presented and compared with that of the AMTMD.

  • To study oceanic and meteorological problems related to climate change, Korea has been operating several ocean research stations (ORSs). In 2011, the Gageocho ORS was attacked by Typhoon Muifa, and its structural members and several observation devices were severely damaged. After this event, the Gageocho ORS was rehabilitated with 5 m height to account for 100-yr extreme wave height, and the vibration measurement system was equipped to monitor the structural vibrational characteristics including natural frequencies and modal damping ratios. In this study, a mass reallocation method is presented for structural model updating of the Gageocho ORS based on the experimentally identified natural frequencies. A preliminary finite element (FE) model was constructed based on design drawings, and several of the candidate baseline FE models were manually built, taking into account the different structural conditions such as corroded thickness. Among these candidate baseline FE models, the most reasonable baseline FE model was selected by comparing the differences between the identified and calculated natural frequencies; the most suitable baseline FE model was updated based on the identified modal properties, and by using the pattern search method, which is one of direct search optimization methods. The mass reallocation method is newly proposed as a means to determine the equivalent mass quantities along the height and in a floor. It was found that the natural frequencies calculated based on the updated FE model was very close to the identified natural frequencies. In conclusion, it is expected that these results, which were obtained by updating a baseline FE model, can be useful for establishing the reference database for jacket-type offshore structures, and assessing the structural integrity of the Gageocho ORS.

  • 본 논문은 지진하중에 대한 복층 배럴볼트 시스템의 동적거동을 조사한 것이다. 시간이력해석에 따른 지진에 대한 거동을 조사하기 위하여 6개의 다른 개각과 각 개각에 대하여 0.5초 간격으로 4개의 추가적인 고유 진동수가 고려되었다. 전체 24개의 해석모델들이 컴퓨터 해석 프로그램인 MIDAS Gen.에 의해 설계되었고 5%의 감쇠비가 고려된 3개의 지진에 대하여 시간이력해석이 수행되었다. 지진이 적용될 때 수평방향에 대한 응답반응만 고려하는 라멘 구조물과는 달리 대공간 구조물의 경우 수평방향 뿐만 아니라 상하 방향의 동적거동을 고려하는 것이 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수평방향 지진(H)과 수직방향 지진(V)에 대하여 X-, Y- 그리고 Z- 방향에 대한 동적거동 특성에 대하여 평가하였다. 개각과 진동수에 따른 동적거동 특성을 파악하기 위하여 최대 응답이 나타나는 시간에서 배럴볼트 시스템의 특정 절점들에 대한 가속도 응답비를 살펴보았다. 본 논문에서 동적거동을 조사한 가장 중요한 목적은 본 연구의 최종 목적인 배럴볼트시스템에 대한 등가정적지진력을 구하는 식을 제안하기 위함이다.

  • Railway track alignment Standards set a minimum lenght value for straight and circular alignments (art. 5.2.9.), in order to ensure passenger ride comfort in railway vehicles of which dynamic oscillations will thus have to be limited. The transitions between alignments can cause abrupt changes (usually called discontinuities or singular points of the alignment) of curvature, of rate of change of curvature or of rate of change of cant. A passenger is likely to experience effects due to the excitation of the elastic suspension of the vehicle which generates oscillations that are damped as the vehicle moves away from the singularity. The amplitude of these oscillations should be adequately attenuated by the damping of the suspension system within the interval between two successive singular points, especially to avoid resonances. Therefore minimum lengths between two successive singular points are stated in alignment standards. Nevertheless, these nonnative values can be overly conservative in some cases. As an alternative, track alignment designers could try to assess how much the excitation has been attenuated between two successive singular points and thus assess at which point a new singularity may be present without affecting ride comfort. Although such assessment can be made with commercial SW packages which simulate the dynamic behavior of a vehicle considered as a set of rigid bodies interconnected with elastic elements simulating the suspension systems (such as SIMPACK, ADAMS or VAMPIRE), a simplified and user-friendly computation method (based upon the analytical solution of differential equations governing the phenomenon) is made available in this paper to track design engineers, not always used to working with full dynamic models.

  • 실시간 그래픽스 응용에서 연체의 움직임을 효율적으로 생성하기 위해 다양한 방법이 제안되었다. 연체 구성 요소들의 위상을 유지하기 위해서는 서로를 묶는 힘이 존재할 수밖에 없으며, 이는 강직도(stiffness)로서 수치적분의 시간간격의 크기를 제한하고 효율성을 떨어트린다. 이를 해결하기 위해 시간간격을 늘릴 수 있는 암시적 적분이 제안되었지만, 대규모 행렬이 포함된 선형시스템을 풀어야 해서 계산복잡도가 크게 높아진다. 이 문제를 개선한 근사 기법들은 댐핑 효과의 증가와 정확성의 손실을 초래할 수밖에 없다. 본 논문에서는 선형시스템을 풀지 않고도 안정성은 크게 높이기 위해 조화진동에 근거하여 스프링 힘을 적분하고, 이를 근사 암시적 기법과 결합하여 안정성을 극대화 하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 GPU를 통한 병렬화가 용이하여 거대한 규모를 가진 연체 객체의 움직임을 실시간에 생성할 수 있다.

  • 본 논문에서는 twisted-pair 채널특성을 이용하여 가우스 및 원단누화 잡음환경에서의 디지털가입 자라인의 BER 성능평가를 Semi-analytic 시뮬레이션 방법에 의해 수행하였다. 그 결과로서 감쇄가 없는 경우의 시뮬레이션 결과는 이론치보다 E$^{b}$ /N$^{0}$ 면에서 0.5dB 이내의 열화를 보석 시뮬레이션의 타당성을 보인다. 전송거리가 5000m로 길어지면 BER=l0$^{-7}$ 에서 E$^{b}$ /N$^{0}$ 는 약 4dB, 일정거리에서 나이퀴스트 주파수가 512kb/s로 높아지면 약 2dB 정도 열화한다. 또한 원단누화 잡음에 의한 영향은 전송거리면에 있어서는 원단누화 잡음 감쇄정수 k=$10^{-10}$ 이상일 때, 나이귀스트 주파수면에서는 k=$10^{-14}$ 이상일 때 크게 나타난다. 본 해석의 결과는 향후 국내외 디지털가입자라인의 표준화 제정에 기본적인 데이터로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • Root colonization of biocontrol agents via seed treatment was investigated and a compatible combination, Gliocladium virens G872B and Pseudomonas putida Pf3, in colonizing cucumber rhizosphere was confirmed through the study. Much higher number of fungal and bacterial propagules were detected when two isolates were inoculated together. The presence of Pf3 in root system was greatly helpful to G872B to colonize at root tip. The mechanism of this phenomenon is partially elucidated through the results of in vitro experiments and the observations of scanning electron and fluorescence microscope. Addition of Pf3 cells resulted earlier germination of G872B conidia and increased mycelial growth. And the more number of germinated conidia on seed coat, the more vigorous hypal streching and sporulation on the root surface were observed in coinoculated treatment. The propagules of G872B on the cucumber root when they were challenged against the pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum, were even higher than that of G872B treated alone, and the magnitude of such a difference was getting grater toward the root ip and the population of F. oxysporum on the root was reduced by seed inoculation of G872B. The rhizosphere competence was obviously reflected to disease suppression and plant growth promotion that induced by the given isolate. Green house experiments revealed that the combined treatment provided long-term disease suppression with greater rate and the larger amount of fruit yield than single treatments. Through this study the low temperature growing Pseudomonas fluorescens M45 and MC07 were evaluated to apply them to the winter crops in field or plastic film house. In vitro tests reveal that M45 and MC07 inhibited the mycelial growth of Pythium ultimum, Rhizoctona solani and Phytophthora capsici and enhanced growth of cucumber cotyledon in MS agar. This effect was more pronounced when the bacteria were incubated at 14$^{\circ}C$ than at 27$^{\circ}C$. And disease suppression and plant growth promotion in green house were also superior at low temperature condition. Seed treatment of M45 or soil treatment of MC07 brought successful control of damping-off and enhanced seedling growth of cucumber. The combined treatment of two isolates was more effective than any single treatment.

  • 본 연구에서는 에너지소산률을 활용하여 구조물의 건전도를 실시간 상에서 모니터링하는 기법을 제시하였다. 실시간 모니터링에 적합하도록 계측은 자연가진기법(NExT)이 채택되었고, 동적 분석을 위해서는 고유계 구현기법(ERA)이 채택되어 실시간 데이터의 분석이 가능하도록 하였다. 이들 데이터로부터 계산된 구조물의 댐핑과 고유치만을 사용하여 에너지소산률을 계산하고, 이들 값으로부터 구조물의 손상도를 평가하는 알고리즘(에너지소산법)을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 에너지소산법은 기존의 방법(고유치변화법과 모드변화법(MAC))과 비교하여 유용성이 입증되었다. 특히 에너지소산법은 실시간 모니터링에 중요한 계측시간과 데이터의 량을 줄일 수 있었고, 자연가진을 이용하여 전체적인 구조물의 거동을 파악하기에 용이하였으며 구조물의 손상 유무를 판단하는 효과적 기법으로 입증되었다.
