Although the finite element method has become an indispensible tool for the dynamic analysis of structures, difficulty remains to quantify the errors associated with discretization. To improve the modeling accuracy, this paper proposes a method to make a combined use of finite elements and exact dynamic elements. Exact interpolation functions for the Timoshenko beam element are derived using the exact dynamic element modeling (EDEM) and compared with interpolation functions of the finite element method (FEM). The exact interpolation functions are tested with the Laplace variable varied. A combined use of finite element method and exact interpolation functions is presented to gain more accurate mode shape functions. This paper also presents a combined use of finite elements and exact dynamic elements in design/reanalysis problems. Timoshenko flames with tapered sections are tested to demonstrate the design procedure with the proposed method. The numerical study shows that the combined use of finite element model and exact dynamic element model is very useful.

A rotor-bearing system has been investigated, including internal damping and axial torque using finite dynamic elements. A procedure is presented for dynamic modeling of rotor-bearing system which consist of finite dynamic shaft elements, rigid disk, and bearing and seal. A finite dynamic element model including the effects of rotatory inertia, gyroscopic moments, axial force, and axial torque is developed using the frequency dependent shape function. The natural whirl speeds, stability, and unbalance response of rotor system are calculated on several cases and compared with the conventional finite elements.

Ambient Media (or ambient displays, Wisneski et al 1998) is one of newly emergent dynamic design objects, representing information through subtle changes of everyday objects and environments. Unlike the existing GUI-based media focusing on the situation that a user is concentrating the media, ambient media enable a user to be peripherally aware of the information without his/her concentration. In order to design ambient media, it is necessary to interpret the basic elements of dynamic changes in physical space and the proper method to apply them for peripherally representing information in ambient media. The aim of this study is to investigate dynamic design elements and the method to apply them for ambient media design in physical space. We explored and refined the type of the dynamic design elements, analyzing dynamic qualities of ambient media cases as well as various time based design fields. As a result, 4 dynamic elements - tempo, connectivity, intensity and rhythm- were proposed. By literature reviews related to peripheral awareness in psychology or ambient media, we analyzed the characteristics of dynamic design elements. Based on that, we developed a new ambient media, 'Cyber Pung-Kyung', and applied dynamic elements for designing the prototype system. The research outcome is expected to contribute designing ambient media which can represent information peripherally or centrally as needed. Understanding the dynamic design elements is helpful for designing various time based design outcomes as well.

For the wave propagation problems, the influence of time-dependent dynamic behavior must be accounted in the analysis. In this study, the dynamic analysis method which combines finite elements and boundary elements is developed for the wave propagation problem modelling the infinity of medium through 3-D boundary elements and underground structure through degenerated finite shell elements. Performing dynamic analysis of underground tunnels by the proposed coupling method of boundary and finite elements, it is found that the change of the stiffness of structures has a good effect on the response. It is also found that the consideration of the repeating effect due to moving traffic loads which is difficult with existing 2-D dynamic analysis can be possible with the 3-D analysis in time domain.

In this study a numerical method for soil-pile interaction analysis buried in multi-layered half planes is presented in frequency domain using FE-BE coupling. The total soil-pile interaction system is divided into two parts so called far field and near field beam elements are used for modeling a pile and coupled with plain strain elements for soil modeling. Boundary element formulation using the multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution is adopted to the far field and coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the proposed soil-pile interaction analysis method the dynamic responses of a pile on multi-layered dynamic fundamental solution is adopted to the far field and coupled with near field modeled by finite elements. In order to verify the proposed soil-pile interaction analysis method the dynamic responses of a pile on multi-layered half-planes are performed and compared with experiment results. Through this developed method the dynamic response analysis of a pile buried in multi-layered half planes can be calculated effectively in frequency domain.

In this paper, three dimensional dynamic infinite elements are developed for the soil-structure interaction analysis in multi-layered halfspace. For the efficient discretization of 3-D for field regions, five types of dynamic infinite elements are developed. They are the horizontal, vertical, horizontal comer, vertical comer and horizontal/vertical corner infinite elements. The shape functions of the infinite elements are based on approximate expressions of analytical solutions of propagating waves in the infinite region. Numerical example analyses are presented for compliances of rigid circular and square plates to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed infinite elements.

A series of seismic tests was carried out using piezoelectric elements called "bender elements". A pair of bender elements can be used as a source and a receiver respectively to measure dynamic properties of concrete. The most suitable bender elements were developed and implemented to measure P wave velocity changes due to the cracks of a concrete beam caused by bending.
