구조물의 변위는 안전성 및 성능 평가에 있어서 가장 중요한 요소 중의 하나로서 교량의 안전진단 및 유지관리에 활용하기 위해 외력에 의한 변위를 측정한다. 이러한 변위는 일반적으로 LVDT, 레이저 또는 GNSS를 이용하여 측정하고 있지만 교량의 환경조건 또는 비용적 측면에서 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 경사계에 의한 회전각 계측데이터를 이용하여 변위를 산정하였으며 알고리즘 검증을 위해 모형시험 및 현장시험을 수행하였다. 그 결과 본 연구에서 제시된 알고리즘을 통해 케이블교량의 차량하중 및 온도하중에 의한 수직변위를 적절하게 산정할 수 있었다. 따라서 차량재하시험에 의한 변위 측정 또는 장기적인 변위 모니터링에 본 연구의 변위 산정 알고리즘이 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

케이블을 이용하여 장경간을 필요로 하는 교량의 시공은 일반적으로 불완전 한 구조계인 교량의 선단에 데릭 혹은 무한궤도 크레인을 설치하여 수상 및 육상으로 이송되는 교량 상판을 리프팅하여 시공하게 된다. 이와 같은 경우 일차적으로 과도한 크레인의 자중으로 인하여 불완전한 구조계에 결함을 발생시킬 수 있으며, 또한 하부 수송으로 인한 추가 비용 및 공기를 소요하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 기존 시공방법을 개선하고자 개발된 교량 일 측에 편중 가능하고, 가동 붐을 설치하여 후방 이송 자재를 시공 지점으로 운반, 가설이 가능한 데릭 크레인의 시공 단계를 정의하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 데릭 크레인의 하중 재하 점을 고정부 4점으로 단순화하였으며, 가동 붐의 수직/수평 회전 범위를 고려하여 반력을 산정하였다. 또한 크레인의 '휴지' 및 '작업 중'의 단계로 나누어 가동 붐 및 강형, PC Slab에 의하여 발생하는 휨 모멘트를 시공단계에 반영하였다. 본 연구에 고려된 데릭 크레인은 접속교를 통한 육상 작업으로 시공 기간 및 비용을 줄일 수 있으며, 크레인 자체의 작은 중량으로 시공 중 재하 하중 감소를 꾀할 수 있다.

EHV power cables can take any damage during shipping, transportation, handling, storage and installation. As the damage influences a reliability of the power cable system in the short and long periods, field tests have been required, for installers, to confirm the reliability of an installed system and, for utilities, to make sure the compatibility of an installed system. Of field tests, a HV withstand test for the cable insulation has been performed to check the soundness of the insulation. For EHV XLPE power cables, the test has been done by applying a specified d.c voltage till lately. But as some problems with the d.c test is emphasized and the equipment for the a.c test is improved, the a.c test is considered positively as an after-installation test. This paper describes the recent trends of the a and its recent application in the field.

Temperature may have more significant influences on structural responses than operational loads or structural damage. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of temperature distributions has great significance for proper design and maintenance of bridges. In this study, the temperature distribution of the steel box girder is systematically investigated based on the structural health monitoring system (SHMS) of the Sutong Cable-stayed Bridge. Specifically, the characteristics of the temperature and temperature difference between different measurement points are studied based on field temperature measurements. Accordingly, the probability density distributions of the temperature and temperature difference are calculated statistically, which are further described by the general formulas. The results indicate that: (1) the temperature and temperature difference exhibit distinct seasonal characteristics and strong periodicity, and the temperature and temperature difference among different measurement points are strongly correlated, respectively; (2) the probability density of the temperature difference distribution presents strong non-Gaussian characteristics; (3) the probability density function of temperature can be described by the weighted sum of four Normal distributions. Meanwhile, the temperature difference can be described by the weighted sum of Weibull distribution and Normal distribution.

High Temperature Superconductor power cable systems are being developed actively to solve the problem of increasing power demand. With increases in the unit length of the High Temperature Superconductor power cable, it is necessary to develop highly efficient and reliable cryogenic pumps to transport the coolant over long distances. Generally, to obtain a high degree of efficiency, the cryogenic pump requires a high pressure rise with a low flow rate, and a partial emission type pump is appropriate considering its low specific speed, which is different from the conventional centrifugal type, full emission type. This paper describes the design of a partial emission pump to circulate subcooled liquid nitrogen. It consists of an impeller, a circular case and a diffuser. The conventional pump and the partial emission pump have different features in the impeller and the discharge flow passage. The partial emission pump uses an impeller with straight radial blades. The emission of working fluid does not occur continuously from all of the impeller channels, and the diffuser allows the flow only from a part of the impeller channels. As the area of the diffuser increases gradually, it converts the dynamic pressure into static pressure while minimizing the loss of total pressure. We used the known numerical method for the optimum design process and made a CFD analysis to verify the theoretical performance.

We present how to optimize the operation condition including frequency of the orthogonal fluxgate sensor in this paper. The orthogonal fluxgate sensor was fabricated with a Co-based amorphous wire with 10 mm long and 100 ${\mu}m$ in the diameter and a 270-turn pickup coil wound on the amorphous wire. In order to investigate the frequency dependence of the sensitivity, output spectra of the sensor which was connected by using a coaxial cable with various lengths of 0.5-5 m were measured with a RF lock-in amplifier. The maximum sensitivities were obtained at different frequencies according to coaxial cable lengths. It was found that the optimal operation frequencies, at which maximum sensitivities were appeared, were almost identical to the frequencies of impedance resonance. The maximum sensitivity and optimal operation frequency were 1.1 V/Oe (${\approx}$ 11000 V/T) and 1.25 MHz respectively.

Civil infrastructure, in both its construction and maintenance, represents the largest societal investment in this country, outside of the health care industry. Despite being the lifeline of US commerce, civil infrastructure has scarcely benefited from the latest sensor technological advances. Our future should focus on harnessing these technologies to enhance the robustness, longevity and economic viability of this vast, societal investment, in light of inherent uncertainties and their exposure to service and even extreme loadings. One of the principal means of insuring the robustness and longevity of infrastructure is to strategically deploy smart sensors in them. Therefore, the objective is to develop novel, durable, smart sensors that are especially applicable to major infrastructure and the facilities to validate their reliability and long-term functionality. In some cases, this implies the development of new sensing elements themselves, while in other cases involves innovative packaging and use of existing sensor technologies. In either case, a parallel focus will be the integration and networking of these smart sensing elements for reliable data acquisition, transmission, and fusion, within a decision-making framework targeting efficient management and maintenance of infrastructure systems. In this paper, prudent and viable sensor and health monitoring technologies have been developed and used in several large structural systems. Discussion will also include several practical bridge health monitoring applications including their design, construction, and operation of the systems.

The Ting Kau Bridge in Hong Kong is a cable-stayed bridge comprising two main spans and two side spans. The bridge deck is supported by three towers, an end pier and an abutment. Each of the three towers consists of a single reinforced concrete mast which reduces its section in steps, and it is strengthened by transverse cables and struts in the transverse vertical plane. The bridge deck is supported by four inclined planes of cables emanating from anchorages at the tower tops. In view of the threat from typhoons, the dynamic behaviour of long-span cable-supported bridges in the region is always an important consideration in their design. This paper is devoted to the ambient vibration measurements of the bridge for evaluation of dynamic characteristics including the natural frequencies and mode shapes. It also describes the modelling of the bridge. A few finite element models are developed and calibrated to match with the field data and the results of subsequent structural health monitoring of the bridge.

The factors affecting the accuracy of lightning current measuring system are figured out the materials and length of down-conductor, and impedance matching between grounding resistance and characteristic impedance of cable. The cable with the low characteristic impedance used to transfer the lightning current from the top of the tower is too long to measure the waveform of lightning current, exactly. Especially, the height of the tower can cause the change of front time and magnitude of lightning stroke current. Basically, in this experiment. It was found that the magnitude and rise time of the lightning current are extremely dependant in the length of down-conductor in lightning current measuring system.
