Magneto-rheological fluids and magneto-strictive materials are of the well-known smart materials which are used to control and reduce the vibrations of the structures. Vibration analysis of a smart annular three-layered plate is provided in this work. MR fluids are used as the core's material type and the face sheets are made from MS materials and is assumed they are fully bonded to each other. The structure is rested on visco-Pasternak foundation and also is subjected to a transverse magnetic field. The governing motion equations are derived based on CPT and employing Hamilton's principle and are solved via GDQ as a numerical method for various boundary conditions. Effect of different parameters on the results are considered and discussed in detail. One of the salient features of this work is the consideration of MR fluids as the core, MS materials as the faces, and all of them under magnetic field. The outcomes of this study may be led to design and create smart structures such as sensors, actuators and also dampers.

데크플레이트와 콘크리트가 합성되어 있는 합성 바닥판 구조물은 데크플레이트의 골 방향과 골 직각방향에 대하여 강성이 다르므로 직교이방성판 거동을 보이고 있으며 테크플레이트와 콘크리트의 합성 거동으로 인하여 적층 바닥판 구조물로 평가할 수 있다. 이러한 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 진동에 대한 정확한 사용성 평가를 위해서는 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 정밀 진동해석을 수행하여야 한다. 이를 위해서는 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 강성에 대한 직교이방성 그리고 데크플레이트와 콘크리트의 합성에 대한 정확한 거동 평가가 수반되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 골 직각 방향에 대한 강성을 계산하기 위하여 각각의 토핑 콘크리트 두께와 데크플레이트 두께를 적용하였다. 또한 골 방향에 대한 강성을 계산하기 위하여 콘크리트와 데크플레이트의 단면 강성을 구하여 등가두께를 적용하였다. 그리고 콘크리트와 데크플레이트의 합성거동을 표현하기 위하여 적층판에 대한 등가 강성식을 적용, 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 강성을 나타내었다. 본 논문에서 제안한 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 실용적인 모형화방법을 적용할 경우에 합성데크 바닥판 구조물의 강성에 대한 직교이방성과 콘크리트와 데크플레이트의 합성 거동을 잘 표현할 수 있었다.

Membrane type Mark III cargo containment system (CCS) is considered in this study to investigate its strength capability under applied loads due to liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargo. A rectangular plated structure supported by inner hull structure is exemplified from Mark III CCS according to classification society's guidance and it is assumed as multi-layered structure by stacking plywood, triplex, reinforced polyurethane (PU) foam and series of mastic upon inner hull structure. Commercially available general purpose finite element analysis package is used to have reliable FE models of Mark III CCS plate. The FE models and anisotropic failure criteria such as maximum stress, Hoffman, Hill, Tsai-Wu and Hashin taking into account the direction dependent material properties of Mark III CCS plate components and their material properties considering a wide variation of temperature due to the nature of LNG together form the strength analysis procedure of Mark III CCS plate. Strength capability of Mark III CCS plate is understood by its initial failure and post-initial failure states. Results are represented in terms of failure loads and locations when initial failure and post-initial failures are occurred respectively.

복합자재(샌드위치패널)는 불연성재료인 양면 철판 또는 이와 유사한 재료와 불연성이 아닌 재료인 심재로 구성된다. 단열재를 가연성 재료로 사용하는 샌드위치패널은 화재 시 철판 내부로 화염이 확산되어 외부에서 진화가 어렵고 화염의 확산이 빠르게 진행되어 건물의 붕괴를 야기할 수 있다. 현행 건축법에 의해 샌드위치패널은 건축물의 용도 및 규모에 따라 난연성능을 확보하도록 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일부 외벽에 적용되는 화재확산방지구조를 복합자재에 적용하여 실제 규모의 화재시험을 통해 그 효과를 측정하였으며 향후 복합자재에서도 화재확산방지구조의 적용을 통해 복합자재 건축물의 화재안전 확보 가능성을 제시하였다.

The present study analyzed free vibration of the three-layered micro annular/circular plate which its core and face sheets are made of saturated porous materials and FG-CNTRCs, respectively. The structure is subjected to magneto-electric fields and magneto-electro-mechanical pre loads. Mechanical properties of the porous core and also FG-CNTRC face sheets are varied through the thickness direction. Using dynamic Hamilton's principle, the motion equations based on MCS and FSD theories are derived and solved via GDQ as an efficient numerical method. Effect of different parameters such as pores distributions, porosity coefficient, pores compressibility, CNTs distribution, elastic foundation, multi-physical pre loads, small scale parameter and aspect ratio of the plate are investigated. The findings of this study can be useful for designing smart structures such as sensor and actuator.

This paper presents a new method for roller design of IRB(isolation roller bearing) seismic isolation device using experimental evaluation. Three layered plate is adopted for the IRB in which the upper plate is placed on x direction and the lower plate is placed on y direction. The rollers placed in each plate make a plate movement. The roller is then optimally designed using variable geometric conditions. Stress distribution depends on the diameter and length of the roller and hence this is used for the determination of optimal geometry of the roller. In the experimental evaluation, it is observed that stress concentration at the end sides of roller is decreased and geometric coefficients depend on crowning dimension. In addition, in order to determine optimal design parameters of the roller the plastic deformation and friction are experimentally identified.

In this study, a method to characterize material properties of adhesive that is used in a layered plates bonding process is developed by combined evaluation of experiment, simulation and optimization technique. A small bonded specimens of rectangular plate are prepared to this end, and put into a thermal loading conditions. $Moir{\acute{e}}$ interferomety is used to measure submicron displacements occurred during the process. The elevated temperature is chosen as control factors. FE analysis with constant values for the adhesive materials is also carried out to simulate the experiment. Significant differences are observed from the two results, in which the simulation predicts the monotonic increase of the bending displacement whereas the measurement shows decrease of the displacement at above $75^{\circ}C$. In order to minimize the difference of the two, material parameters of the adhesive at a number of different temperatures are posed as unknowns to be determined, and optimization is conducted. As a result, optimum material parameters are found that excellently matches the simulation and experiment, which are decreased with respect to the temperature.

Importance of procuring adequate knowledge about the mechanical behavior of double-layered graphene sheets (DLGSs) incensed the authors to investigate wave propagation responses of mentioned element while rested on a visco-Pasternak medium under hygro-thermal loading. A nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT) is exploited to present a more reliable size-dependent mechanical analysis by capturing both softening and hardening effects of small scale. Furthermore, in the framework of a classical plate theory the kinematic relations are developed. Incorporating kinematic relations with the definition of Hamilton's principle, the Euler-Lagrange equations of each of the layers are derived separately. Afterwards, combining Euler-Lagrange equations with those of the NSGT the nonlocal governing equations are written in terms of displacement fields. Interaction of the each of the graphene sheets with another one is regarded by the means of vdW model. Then, a widespread analytical solution is employed to solve the derived equations and obtain wave frequency values. Subsequently, influence of each participant variable containing nonlocal parameter, length scale parameter, foundation parameters, temperature gradient and moisture concentration is studied by plotting various figures.

In the present research, an attempt is made to obtain a semi analytical solution for both nonlinear natural frequency and forced vibration of embedded functionally graded double layered nanoplates with all edges simply supported based on nonlocal strain gradient elasticity theory. The interaction of van der Waals forces between adjacent layers is included. For modeling surrounding elastic medium, the nonlinear Winkler-Pasternak foundation model is employed. The governing partial differential equations have been derived based on the Mindlin plate theory utilizing the von Karman strain-displacement relations. Subsequently, using the Galerkin method, the governing equations sets are reduced to nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The semi analytical solution of the nonlinear natural frequencies using the homotopy analysis method and the exact solution of the nonlinear forced vibration through the Harmonic Balance method are then established. The results show that the length scale parameters give nonlinearity of the hardening type in frequency response curve and the increase in material length scale parameter causes to increase in maximum response amplitude, whereas the increase in nonlocal parameter causes to decrease in maximum response amplitude. Increasing the material length scale parameter increases the width of unstable region in the frequency response curve.

A method based on finite element discretization is developed for optimizing the polarization profile of PVDF film to create the modal transducer for specific modes. Using this concept, one can design the modal transducer in two-dimensional structure having arbitrary geometry and boundary conditions. As a practical means for implementing this polarization profile without repoling the PVDF film the polarization profile is approximated by optimizing electrode patterns, lamination angles, and poling directions of the multi-layered PVDF transducer. This corresponds to the approximation of a continuous function using discrete values. The electrode pattern of each PVDF layer is optimized by deciding the electrode of each finite element to be used or not. Genetic algorithm, suitable for discrete problems, is used as an optimization scheme. For the optimization of each layers lamination angle, the continuous lamination angle is encoded into discrete value using binary 5 bit string. For the experimental demonstration, a modal sensor for first and second modes of cantilevered composite plate is designed using two layers of PVDF films. The actuator is designed based on the criterion of minimizing the system energy in the control modes under a given initial condition. Experimental results show that the signals from residual modes are successfully reduced using the optimized multi-layered PVDF sensor. Using discrete LQG control law, the modal peaks of first and second modes are reduced in the amount of 12 dB and 4 dB, resepctively.
