The dynamic responses and drift forces in waves of a floating circular fish cage are analyzed considering hydroelastic effects. The method of generalized mode is used to calculate the hydroelastic responses of the floater of cage. The elastic mode shapes, generalized mass, and stiffness in dry mode are evaluated by using a structural analysis code. The higher-order boundary element method is adopted to analyze the interaction between fluid and deformable structure. Some results of vertical motions and drift forces are shown and compared with those for a rigid body.

Side-by-side offloading operations are widely utilized in engineering practice. The hydrodynamic interactions between two vessels play a crucial role in safe operation. This study focuses on the coupled effects between two floating bodies positioned side-by-side as a shuttle tanker-FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading) system. Several wave directions with different side-by-side distances are studied in order to obtain the variation tendency of the horizontal hydrodynamic coefficients, motion responses and mean drift forces. It is obtained that the coupled hydrodynamics between two vessels is evidently distinguished from the single body case with shielding and exaggerating effects, especially for sway and yaw directions. The resonance frequency and the peak amplitude are closely related with side-by-side separation distance. In addition, the horizontal hydrodynamics of the shuttle tanker is more susceptible to coupled effects in beam waves. It is suggested to expand the gap distance reasonably in order to reduce the coupled drift forces effectively. Attention should also be paid to the second peaks caused by hydrodynamic coupling. Since the horizontal mean drift forces are the most mainly concerned forces to be counteracted in dynamic positioning (DP) system and mooring system, prudent prediction is beneficial in saving consumed power of DP system and reducing tension of mooring lines.

The motions and drift forces of side-by-side moored FSRU and LNGC including the sloshing effect, were studied using experiments. The FSRU and LNGC contained LNG cargo tanks and the LNG sloshing could affect the motions and drift forces of the structures due to its coupling with floating body motion. The effect of coupling can vary with the LNG filling level, and the effect of the filling level was investigated. The coupling effect was stronger at lower filling level. It was confirmed that longitudinal sloshing influenced the surge and surge mean drift force in head sea. In addition, gap flow affected the sway and mean drift forces. Sloshing attenuated the sway and yaw excited by gap flow in side-by-side configuration.

Micro force measurement is required more frequently for a precision manufacturing and investment in fields of precision industries such as semiconductor, chemistry and biology, and so forth. Null balance method has been introduced as an alternative of a loadcell. Loadcells have advantages in aspects of low cost and easy manufacturing, but have also the limitation in resolution and sensitivity to environment variations. In this paper, null balance method is explained and the dominant parameters related to system performances are mentioned. Null position sensor, electromagnetic system and controller are investigated. Also, the characteristic experiment is carried out in order to estimate the resolution and the measurement range. In order to overcome the limitation by the drift of position sensor and the performance of controller, double electromagnetic force compensation method is proposed and experimented. After controlling and filtering, the resolution under $\pm$ 1mg and measurement range over 300g could be obtained.

A numerical method is proposed to simulate level ice interaction with ship in transverse and longitudinal directions in time domain. A novel method is proposed to simulate non-symmetric transverse force in a stochastic way. On the basis of observations from the model tests, the simulation of longitudinal force combines the ice bending force acting on the waterline, submersion force below the waterline and ice friction forces caused by transverse force and ice floes rotation amidships. In the simulations the ship was fixed and towed through an intact ice sheet at a certain speed. The setup of the numerical simulation is similar to the ice tank setup as much as possible. The simulated results are compared with model tests data and the results show good agreement with the measurement.

In practical engineering, the friction damper is a widely used energy dissipation device because of its large deformation capacity, stable energy dissipation capability, and cost effectiveness. While based on conventional friction dampers, the double-sliding friction damper (DSFD) being proposed is different in that it features two sliding friction forces, i.e., small and large sliding friction forces, rather than a single-sliding friction force of ordinary friction dampers. The DSFD starts to deform when the force sustained exceeds the small-sliding friction force, and stops deforming when the deformation reaches a certain value. If the force sustained exceeds the large sliding friction force, it continues to deform. Such a double-sliding behavior is expected to endow structures equipped with the DSFD better performance in both small and large earthquakes. The configuration and working mechanism of the DSFD is described and analyzed. Quasi-static loading tests and finite element analyses were conducted to investigate its hysteretic behavior. Finally, time history analysis of the single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems were performed to investigate the seismic performance of DSFD-equipped structures. For the purpose of comparison, tests on systems equipped with conventional friction dampers were also performed. The proposed DSFD can be realized perfectly, and the DSFD-equipped structures provide better performances than those equipped with conventional friction dampers in terms of interstory drift and floor acceleration. In particular, for the MDOF system, the DSFD helps the structural system to have a uniform distributed interstory drift.

건물에 요구되는 성능수준에 대해 명확히 명시하지 못하는 현행의 설계법에 대한 대안으로 성능중심설계법의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 미국과 일본 등의 선진국에서는 이미 성능중심설계의 기반을 구축하기 위한 연구가 진행중이며 최근 국내에서도 성능설계에 관한 연구가 진행된 바 있으나 아직 전반적인 관련기술이 낙후되어 있는 실정이다. 한편 지진동에 의한 수평력 작용시 건물의 기둥, 특히 하층부의 외주는 전단휨과 함께 전도모멘트에 의한 변동축력을 받게 된다. 이러한 변동축력은 부재의 국부좌굴시점 및 열화역 이후의 종국거동에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 크다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 변동축력을 받는 기둥부재 실험을 실시하여 변동축력으로 인한 국부좌굴 시점 및 부재의 종국거동 등의 구조성능에 대하여 분석하였다. 또한 이를 바탕으로 강구조 건축물의 성능중심설계에 대한 성능한계를 층간변위각의 형태로 제안한 국내연구의 타당성을 검증하였다.

Structural seismic tests usually need to simulate the gravity load borne by the structure, the gravity load application devices should keep the force value and direction unchanged, and can adapt to the structural deformation. At present, there are two main ways to simulate gravity load in laboratory: roller group and prestress. However, there are few differential analysis between these two ways in the existing experimental studies. In this paper, the simulation software ABAQUS is used to simulate the static pushover analysis of reinforced concrete column and frame, which are the most common models in structural seismic tests. The results show that the horizontal restoring force of the model using prestressed loading method is significantly greater than roller group, and the difference between the two will increase with the increase of the horizontal deformation. The reason for the difference is that the prestressed loading method does not take the adverse effects of gravity second-order effect (P-Delta effect) into account. Therefore, the restoring force obtained under prestressed loading method should be corrected and the additional shear force caused by P-Delta effect should be deducted. After correction, the difference of restoring force between the two gravity load application methods is significantly reduced (when storey-drift is 1/550, the relative error is within 1%; and when storey-drift is 1/50, the relative error is about 3%). The research results of this research can provide reference for the selection and data processing of gravity load simulation devices in structural seismic tests.

최근 선박의 대형화와 전용화가 현저하게 진행됨에 따라 갑판 상부의 구조물이 비교적 큰 컨테이너선, LNG 운반선, 자동차운반선, 여객선 등이 출현하여 운항되고 있다. 이러한 선박들이 부두에서 접 이안 또는 항내에서 저속으로 운항할 경우 바람, 조류 등과 같은 외력의 영향을 받기 쉬우며, 외력이 과도할 경우에는 압류나 회두 현상으로 인해 선박 운항에 지장을 초래할 수 있으므로 특정 외력 하에서의 선체 거동에 대한 분석은 선박의 안전운항에 있어서 매우 중요한 자료라 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 수면 상부의 구조물이 상대적으로 큰 실습선 한나라호를 대상으로 정상풍 하에서의 선체에 작용하는 풍압력 및 풍압모우멘트 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 정상풍 하의 선박 운항에 있어 주요한 정보인 표류각과 대응 타각을 상대 풍향과 풍속을 기초로 산출하였고, 풍속 선속비에 따른 조종 한계 풍속, 선속별 풍향에 따른 조종 한계 풍속, 최대 풍압력에 의한 횡경사각 등을 정량적으로 산출하여 제시하였다. 이러한 자료는 한나라호의 입출항 조종 및 태풍 피항을 위한 운항 현장에서 직접 활용될 수 있고, 실선에서 해당 결과를 비교 평가할 수 있으므로 향후 이론식에 대한 수정 및 보완과 함께 교육 자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
