A damage detection method for the tripod support structure of offshore wind turbines is presented for structural health monitoring. A finite element model of a prototype tripod support structure is established and the modal properties are calculated. The degree and location of the damage are estimated based on the neural network technique using the changes of natural frequencies and mode shape due to the damage. The stress distribution occurring in the support structure is obtained by a dynamic analysis for the wind turbine system to select the output data of the neural network. The natural frequencies and mode shapes for 36 possible damage scenarios were used for the input data of the learned neural network for damage assessment. The estimated damages agreed reasonably well with the accurate ones. The presented method could be effectively applied for damage detection and structural health monitoring of various types of support structures of offshore wind turbines.

도심지나 보안건물과 근접한 곳에서 폭약을 사용하는 발파작업이 수행되는 경우 지반진동 및 소음의 영향을 최소화 시킬 필요가 있다. 이러한 지반진동과 소음은 암반의 천공내에 장전된 폭약이 기폭되며 주변 암반을 파괴하고 남은 일부 충격에너지에 의하여 발생된다. 최근 천공 내 U형 철재장약홀더를 삽입하여 충격파의 전파방향을 제어하여 자유면방향으로 파쇄효과를 유지하며 암반 내로 전파하는 충격진동을 감쇄시키는 발파 공법이 제안되었다. 본 연구에서는 U형 철재장약홀더를 적용한 암반발파에서 충격파의 전파특성을 파악하기 위하여, AUTODYN 소프트웨어를 이용하여 장약홀더 내 장전된 폭약의 폭굉을 모사하고 주변암반에 전달된 충격파를 측정하였다. 또한 장약홀더 발파의 암파쇄 효과를 파악하기 위하여 동적파괴과정해석코드인 DFPA(Dynamic Fracture Process Analysis)를 적용하여 장약홀더를 이용한 장약조건을 고려한 2자유면 발파를 모사하였다. 일반발파의 장약조건을 고려한 충격파 발생 및 파괴과정해석을 추가적으로 수행하여 장약홀더의 암파쇄효과를 비교하였다.

본 논문에서는 MCE를 적용한 콘크리트 댐 피어부의 동적소성해석을 통한 내진성능평가 수행 시 소성재료모델, 성능수준 평가 방법에 대한 현행 기준의 적용성을 검토하고 개선안을 제시하였다. 다양한 조건으로 동적소성해석을 수행하여 소성재료모델에 대한 적용성을 검토하였고, 그 결과 현행 댐 내진성능평가요령에서 제시하는 평균응력-평균변형률 기법은 최소철근비가 확보되지 않은 조건에서 동적탄성해석으로 예측한 결과보다 피어부의 응답을 과소평가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 따라서 최소철근비가 확보되지 않은 댐 피어부는 무근콘크리트로 간주하여 콘크리트 인장거동특성에 파괴에너지를 적용하는 방법으로 피어부 성능수준을 평가하도록 하는 개선안을 도출하였다. 개선사항 적용할 경우 현행 내진성능평가 방법보다 보수적인 평가결과를 도출할 수 있다.

Dynamic compaction (DC) is a useful method for improvement of granular soils. The method is based on falling a tamper (weighting 5 to 40 ton) from the height of 15 to 30 meters on loose soil that results in stress distribution, vibration of soil particles and desirable compaction of the soil. Propagation of the waves during tamping affects adjacent structures and causes structural damage or loss of performance. Therefore, determination of the safe or critical distance from tamping point to prevent structural hazards is necessary. According to FHWA, the critical distance is defined as the limit of a particle velocity of 76 mm/s. In present study, the ABAQUS software was used for numerical modeling of DC process and determination of the safe distance based on particle velocity criterion. Different variables like alluvium depth, relative density, and impact energy were considered in finite element modeling. It was concluded that for alluvium depths less than 10 m, reflection of the body waves from lower boundaries back to the soil and resonance phenomenon increases the critical distance. However, the critical distance decreases for alluvium depths more than 10 m. Moreover, it was observed that relative density of the alluvium does not significantly influence the critical distance value.

Underground water-sealed gas storage caverns have become the primary method for strategic storage of LPG. Previous studies of excavation blasting effects on large-scale underground water-sealed gas storage caverns are rare at home and abroad. In this paper, the blasting excavation for underground water-sealed propane storage caverns in Yantai was introduced and field tests of blasting vibration were carried out. Field test data showed that the horizontal radial velocity had a major controlling effect in the blasting vibration and frequencies would not cause the vibration velocity concentration effects. In terms of the influence of blasting vibration on adjacent caverns, the dynamic finite element model in LS-DYNA soft was established, whose reliability was verified by field test data. The numerical results indicated the near-blasting side was primary zone for the structural failure and tensile failure tended to occur in the middle of the curved wall on the near-blasting side. Meanwhile, the safety criterions for adjacent caverns based on stress wave theory and according to statistic relationship between peak effective tensile stress and peak particle velocities were obtained, respectively. Finally, with Safety Regulations for Blasting in China (GB6722-2014) taken into account, a final safety criterion was proposed.

본 연구에서는 액상화 평가 대상지반을 선정하여 미국, 일본 등 액상화 발생지역에 적용한 사례가 있는 에너지를 기반으로 하는 Arias intensity 액상화 평가법을 적용하고, 적용성을 검토하기 위하여 기존의 원위치시험을 통한 액상화 간편예측법을 수행하여 평가결과를 비교하였다. 대상지반에 대한 액상화 평가결과, Hachinohe 지진과 Ofunato 지진의 실지진기록을 이용한 Arias Intensity 안전율은 간편예측 안전율과 유사하게 산정되었으며, 설계응답스펙트럼으로부터 작성된 인공지진의 경우 Arias Intensity 안전율은 간편예측 안전율과 비교하여 다소 차이가 나타났다. 액상화를 발생시키는 전단응력비와 발생강도는 응력과 에너지라는 서로 다른 개념으로 산정되지만, 간편예측법의 전단저항응력비와 Arias Intensity의 저항강도는 실지진에 따른 액상화 발생지역을 대상으로 한 표준관입시험 등 경험적 도표를 사용한다는 점에서 Hachinohe 지진과 Ofunato 지진의 경우 Arias Intensity 평가법과 응력개념의 간편예측법 사이에 비슷한 결과가 나타난 것으로 판단된다. 따라서, 에너지를 기반으로 하는 Arias Intensity 액상화 평가법은 응력개념의 간편예측법에서 고려하지 않은 실지진 기록에 대한 가속도, 지속시간, 진폭 등의 지진특성으로 야기되는 지반의 동적변화를 표현할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents a comparative structural analysis of lattice hybrid tower with six legs with conventional tubular steel tower for an onshore wind turbine using finite element method. Usually a lattice hybrid tower will have a conventional industry standard 'L' profile section for the lattice construction with four legs. In this work, the researcher attempted to identify and analyze the strength of six legged lattice hybrid tower designed with a special profile instead of four legged L profile. And to compare the structural benefits of special star profile with the conventional tubular tower. Using Ansys, a commercial FEM software, both static and dynamic structural analyses were performed. A simplified finite element model that represents the wind turbine tower was created using Shell elements. An ultimate load condition was applied to check the stress level of the tower in the static analysis. For the dynamic analysis, the frequency extraction was performed in order to obtain the natural frequencies of the tower.

In this paper, damping behavior of steel fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC) beams by experimental and numerical method is discussed. Because of its improved ability to dissipate energy, SFRC has a better damping behavior than that of reinforced concrete(RC). Damping behavior is influenced by longitudinal reinforcement ratio, volume and type of steel fiber, strength of concrete and the stress level. Damping in the SFRC beams has been evaluated from dynamic experimental test data at various levels of cracked states in the beams. A FEM program(TICAL) has been developed based on the relationships between curvature and damping. It is observed for SFRC beams with 0.44% of tensile reinforcement steel that approximate 5% to 35% was relatively increased in the damping ratio generally depending on the load level.

The machine tools builders are trying to improve the efficiency and performance of the machine tools. The electro-mechanical driven broaching machine has many advantages such as lower noisy operating, higher energy efficiency, and smaller space of installation. This paper presents the structural and mechanical development of an electro-mechanical driven broaching machine that is replaced for traditional hydraulic one. The servo motor, ball screw and roller linear guide are used instead of hydraulic cylinder and translation frictional sliding guides. The simulation method based on FEM was applied to analyze the stress, deformation of the machine for static analysis. The dynamic analysis was carried out for verifying and assessing the mechanical behavior of the developed broaching machine. This work helps broaching machine developer make a better product at the early design stage with lower cost and development time.
