FPS(friction pendulum system) is an isolation system which is possible to isolate structures from earthquake by pendulum characteristic. Natural frequencies of the structures could be determined by designing the radius of curvature of FPS. Thus, response vibration could be reduced by changing natural frequency of structures from FPS. But effective periods of recorded seismic wave were various and estimation of earthquake characteristic could be difficult. If effective periods of seismic wave correspond to natural frequency of structures with FPS, resonance can be occurred. Therefore, CFPBS(cone-type friction pendulum bearing system) was developed for controlling the acceleration and displacement of structure by the slope of friction surfaces. Structural natural frequency with CFPBS can be changed according to position of ball on the friction surface which was designed cone-type. Therefore, superstructures on CFPBS could be isolated from earthquake. In this study, seismic performance of CFPBS was evaluated by numerical analysis and shaking table test.

This paper deals with the problem of friction measurement of an inverted pendulum system using the regression analysis and proposes a solution. The approach taken in this study is getting the friction from a regression relational expression between the motor voltage and the cart velocity of an inverted pendulum system. The result to compensate LQR (linear Quadratic Regulator) controller with the friction which is measured in system, improved the performance of the system. Above all, the study has found that the proposed compensation of the friction reduces the oscillation of the cart position. In conclusion, the proposed method is useful when parameters in the given system model are not known.

Friction isolators are one of the most important types of bearings used to mitigate damages of earthquakes. The adaptive behavior of these isolators allows them to achieve multiple levels of performances and predictable seismic behavior during different earthquake hazard levels. There are three main types of friction isolators. The first generation with one sliding surface is known as Friction Pendulum System (FPS) isolators. The double concave friction pendulum (DCFP) with two sliding surfaces is an advanced form of FPS, and the third one, with fully adaptive behavior, is named as triple concave friction pendulum (TCFP). The current study has been conducted to investigate and compare seismic responses of these three types of isolators. The structure is idealized as a two-dimensional single degree of freedom (SDOF) resting on isolators. The coupled differential equations of motion are derived and solved using state space formulation. Seismic responses of isolated structures using each one of these isolators are investigated under seven near fault earthquake motions. The peak values of bearing displacement and base shear are studied employing the variation of essential parameters such as superstructure period, effective isolation period and effective damping of isolator. The results demonstrate a more efficient seismic behavior of TCFP isolator comparing to the other types of isolators. This efficiency depends on the selected effective isolation period as well as effective isolation damping. The investigation shows that increasing the effective isolation period or decreasing the effective isolation damping improves the seismic behavior of TCFP compared to the other isolators. The maximum difference in seismic responses, the base shear and the bearing displacement, for the TCFP isolator are calculated 26.8 and 13.4 percent less than the DCFP and FPS in effective isolation damping equal to10%, respectively.

This paper investigates the seismic response of a typical non-navigable continuous girder bridge isolated with friction sliding bearings of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao link projects in China. The effectiveness of the friction pendulum system (FPS) and accuracy of the numerical model were evaluated by a 1/20 scaled bridge model using shaking table tests. Based on the hysteretic properties of friction pendulum system (FPS), double concave friction pendulum (DCFP), and triple friction pendulum system (TFPS), seismic response analyses of isolated bridges with the three sliding-type bearings are systematically carried out considering soil-pile interaction under offshore soft clay conditions. The fast nonlinear analysis (FNA) method and response spectrum are employed to investigate the seismic response of isolated offshore bridge structures. The numerical results show that the implementation of the three sliding-type bearings effectively reduce the base shear and bending moment of the reinforced concrete pier, at the cost of increasing the absolute displacement of the bridge superstructure. Furthermore, the TFPS and DCFP bearings show better isolation effect than FPS bearing for the example continuous girder bridge.

마찰진자형 면진받침은 마찰면의 곡률반경과 중력에 의해 생성되는 고유 복원력과 마찰에 의한 감쇠력을 갖는다는 장점이 있지만, 마찰계수의 속도, 상재압 및 온도 등에 대한 의존성으로 거동에 대한 예측이 쉽지 않다. 본 연구에서는 각 기준에서 제시된 마찰진자형 받침의 설계 및 해석절차를 분석하여 추가적인 검토가 필요한 사항들에 대해 평가해 보았으며, 추가로 동일한 동특성을 갖는 납-고무 면진받침 시스템을 이용한 해석결과와 마찰진자형 면진받침 시스템의 해석결과를 비교하여 마찰진자형 면진받침이 갖는 상대적인 거동 특성을 비교 분석해 보았다.

This paper presents the results of experimental studies on the equipment isolation effect in the nuclear containment. For this purpose, shaking table tests were performed. The isolation system, known as Friction Pendulum System (FPS), combines the concepts of sliding bearings and pendulum motion was selected. Peak ground acceleration, bidirectional motion, effect of vertical motion and frequency contents of selected earthquake motions were considered. Finally, it is presented that the FPS systems are effective for the small equipment isolation. Key word equipment isolation, nuclear containment, shaking table test, Friction Pendulum System (FPS)

A CFPBS (Cone-type Friction Pendulum Bearing System) was developed to control the acceleration delivered to a structure to prevent the damage and degradation of critical communication equipment during earthquakes. This study evaluated the isolation performance of the CFPBS by numerical analysis. The CFPBS was manufactured in the shape of a cone differenced with the existing FPS (Friction Pendulum System), and a pattern was engraved on the friction surface. The natural frequencies of the CFPBS were evaluated from a free-vibration test with a seismic isolator system consisting of 4 CFPBS. To confirm the earthquake-resistant performance, a numerical analysis program was prepared using the equation of the CFPBS induced from the equations of motion. The equation reported by Tsai for the rolling-type seismic isolation bearings was proposed to design the equation of the CFPBS. Artificial seismic waves that satisfy the maximum earthquake scale of the Korean Building Code-Structural (KBC-2005) were created and verified to review the earthquake-resistant performance of the CFPBS by numerical analysis. The superstructural mass of the CFPBS and the skew angle of friction surface were considered for numerical analysis with El Centro NS, Kobe NS and artificial seismic waves. The CFPBS isolation performance evaluation was based on the numerical analysis results, and comparative analysis was performed between the results from numerical analysis and simplified theoretical equation under the same conditions. The validity of numerical analysis was verified from the shaking table test.

스카이브릿지가 연결되는 건물에 강접합될 경우에는 비정형성이 크게 되어 지진하중에 매우 불리하게 거동할 수 있다. 따라서, 마찰진자베어링(FPS)이나 납고무베어링(LRB)와 같은 연결시스템을 사용하여 스카이브릿지와 구조물을 연결하게 된다. 이러한 연결시스템은 큰 지진하중이 발생하였을 때 스카이브릿지가 연결된 건물에서 분리되어 낙교하지 않도록 신중하게 설계되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 수직방향 인장력에대해서 저항성이 없는 마찰진자감쇠기를 이용한 연결시스템을 설계하는 과정에서 반드시 검토해야할 사항을 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 실제 시공된 누리꿈 스퀘어를 예제구조물로 선택하였고 예상되는 지진하중이 가해졌을 때 스카이브릿지 연결시스템에서 발생하는 응답을 분석하여 낙교를 방지할 수 있는 설계 프로세스를 정립하였다.
