본 연구는 교량의 상시계측자료인 고유진동수 및 고유모드를 기준으로 계측기반모델을 구성하고, 구조해석을 수행하여 교량 공용상태에서 사장케이블 장력평가를 수행하였다. 케이블 설치 위치에 따라 하중유형별 케이블 장력이 다르다는 것을 알 수 있다. 고정하중과 활하중에 의한 케이블 계측장력은 케이블 설치위치에 따라 차이가 크지 않으나 설계하중을 적용한 해석결과보다 큰 값을 나타낸다. 계측기반모델에 대한 케이블장력분포는, 설계모델에 대한 장력보다 크지만, 계측장력과 유사한 분포를 나타낸다. 그러므로 장기거동을 고려하여 사장교 케이블설계는 계측기반모델의 해석결과를 반영할 필요가 있다. 이를 위하여 많은 계측자료를 이용한 장기거동 분석연구가 요구된다.

Long span bridges such as steel cable stayed and suspension bridges are usually more flexible than short to medium span bridges and expected to have large deformations. Deflections due to live load for long span bridges are important since it controls the overall heights of the bridge for securing the clearance under the bridge and serviceability for securing the comfort of passengers or pedestrians. In case of sea-crossing bridges, the clearance of bridges is determined considering the height of the ship master from the surface of the water, the trim of the ship, the psychological free space, the tide height, and live load deflection. In the design of bridges, live load deflection is limited to a certain value to minimize the vibrations. However, there are not much studies that consider the live load deflection and its effects for long span bridges. The purpose of this study is to investigate the suitability of live load deflection limit and its actual effects on serviceability of bridges for steel cable-stayed and suspension bridges. Analytical study is performed to calculate the natural frequencies and deflections by design live load. Results are compared with various design limits and related studies by Barker et al. (2011) and Saadeghvaziri et al. (2012). Two long span bridges are selected for the case study, Yi Sun-Sin grand bridge (suspension bridge, main span length = 1545 m) and Young-Hung grand bridge (cable stayed bridge, main span length = 240 m). Long-term measured deflection data by GNSS system are collected from Yi Sun-Sin grand bridge and compared with the theoretical values. Probability of exceedance against various deflection limits are calculated from probability distribution of 10-min maximum deflection. The results of the study on the limitation of live load deflection are expected to be useful reference for the design, the proper planning and deflection review of the long span bridges around the world.

The cable-stayed-suspension hybrid bridge is a cooperative system developed from the traditional cable-stayed and suspension bridges, and takes some advantages of the two bridge systems. It is also becoming a competitive design alternative for some long and super long-span bridges. But due to its great flexibility, the flutter stability plays an important role in the design and construction of this bridge system. Considering the geometric nonlinearity of bridge structures and the effects of nonlinear wind-structure interaction, method and its solution procedure of three-dimensional nonlinear flutter stability analysis are firstly presented. Parametric analyses on the flutter stability of a cable-stayed-suspension hybrid bridge with main span of 1400 meters are then conducted by nonlinear flutter stability analysis, some design parameters that significantly influence the flutter stability are pointed out, and the favorable structural system of the bridge is also discussed based on the wind stability.

An optimal cooling method for a long HTS power transmission cable was scrutinized by using theoretical models. Cooling length of HTS cable is determined by pressure range and temperature range of LN2 in the HTS cable. Results showed limitation from temperature range is stricter than that from pressure range. The well-known one-side cooling was modified to two-side cooling. It was shown that cooling length can be nearly doubled by adopting two-side cooling of the same capacity.

Most long-span bridges such as a cable-stayed bridges have a number of long-period modes due to the flexibility, thus the design concept extending the natural period of structures using base isolation system may be difficult to use directly to these structures. But, the effectiveness of LRB for cable-stayed bridges is indicated in several papers. In this study, the guidelines of designing LRB for a seismically excited cable-stayed bridge using benchmark cable-stayed bridge are presented. The design properties of LRB are chosen that the design index(DI) is minimized or little changed for variation of properties. And the seismic performance of designed LRB is also investigated. The consequences show that the perforamnce of designed LRB is better than that of simply designed LRB for several history earthquakes. Moreover, the design properties of LRB are researched to several diffrent dominant frequency of earthquake. The results present that the plastic and elastic stiffness of LRB are affected by the dominant frequency of earthquake.

This article develops a long-term condition assessment method for stay cables in cable stayed bridges using the monitored cable tension forces under operational condition. Based on the concept of influence surface, the matched cable tension ratio of two cables located at the same side (either in the upstream side or downstream side) is theoretically proven to be related to the condition of stay cables and independent of the positions of vehicles on the bridge. A sensor grouping scheme is designed to ensure that reliable damage detection result can be obtained even when sensor fault occurs in the neighbor of the damaged cable. Cable forces measured from an in-service cable-stayed bridge in China are used to demonstrate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method. Damage detection results show that the proposed approach is sensitive to the rupture of wire damage in a specific cable and is robust to environmental effects, measurement noise, sensor fault and different traffic patterns. Using the damage sensitive feature in the proposed approach, the metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall and F1 score, which are used to evaluate the performance of damage detection, are 97.97%, 95.08%, 100% and 97.48%, respectively. These results indicate that the proposed approach can reliably detect the damage in stay cables. In addition, the proposed approach is efficient and promising with applications to the field monitoring of cables in cable-stayed bridges.

케이블지지교량에서 케이블은 하중을 지지하는 주요 부재로, 케이블 장력은 교량의 건전성과 안전도 평가에 있어서 매우 중요한 변수이다. 케이블의 장력을 추정하는 기법으로, 로드셀 및 유압잭 등을 이용하여 케이블의 응력을 직접 측정하는 직접법과 케이블의 형상조건과 계측된 동특성을 활용하여 장력을 역산하는 진동법이 가장 많이 활용되고 있다. 최근 들어 케이블 내부 강재의 응력변화로 인하여 유발되는 자기장 변화를 탐지하는 EM 센서의 연구 및 활용이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 리프트오프 테스트, EM 센서 및 진동법(Vision-based System, Accelerometer)을 적용하여 장력을 측정하고 그 결과를 비교 분석하였다.

In a previous paper, ambient vibration tests were conducted on a cable stayed bridge with resilient-friction base isolation systems (R-FBI) to extract the dynamic characteristics of the bridge and compare the results with a seismic analysis model. In this paper, a nonlinear seismic analysis model was established for analysis of the bridge to compare the difference in seismic responses between nonlinear time history analysis and multi-mode spectral analysis methods in the seismic design phase of cable supported bridges. Through these studies, it was confirmed that the seismic design procedures of the "Korean Highway Bridge Design Code (Limit State Design) for Cable Supported Bridges" is not suitable for cable supported bridges installed with R-FBI. Therefore, to reflect the actual dynamic characteristics of the R-FBI installed on cable-supported bridges, an improved seismic design procedure is proposed that applies the seismic analysis method differently depending on the seismic isolation effect of the R-FBI for each seismic performance level.

본 논문은 심해저 환경을 고려한 케이블 및 필터 설계에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 심해저 플랜트에서 사용하고 있는 전기 아키텍처는 해상에서 고전압의 전원 공급 장치, 고용량 구동시스템, 장거리 케이블과 전동기로 구성되어있다. 전도 노이즈는 전동기 구동용 인버터의 고속 스위칭 시 발생하는 급속한 전압변화로 인해 발생하며, 케이블의 길이가 길어질수록 전동기에 심각한 과도 전압을 발생시킨다. 따라서 심해저 플랜트에 사용되는 장거리 케이블의 R, L, 선간 C, 선-접지 C를 고려한 선로를 설계하여 구동 전동기에 발생하는 과전압을 확인하였다. 또한, PWM 인버터 구동시스템의 전도 노이즈 저감을 위한 필터를 설계하여 심해저 플랜트 모델의 가이드라인을 제안하고자 한다.

This study aims to establish an effective methodology for the detection of instant damages occurred in cable-stayed bridges with the measurements of cable vibration and structural temperatures. A transfer coefficient for the daily temperature variation and another for the long-term temperature variation are firstly determined to eliminate the environmental temperature effects from the cable force variation. Several thresholds corresponding to different levels of exceedance probability are then obtained to decide four upper criteria and four lower criteria for damage detection. With these criteria, the monitoring data for three stay cables of Ai-Lan Bridge are analyzed and compared to verify the proposed damage detection methodology. The simulated results to consider various damage scenarios unambiguously indicate that the damages with cable force changes larger than ${\pm}1%$ can be confidently detected. As for the required time to detect damage, it is found that the cases with ${\pm}2%$ of cable force change can be discovered in no more than 6 hours and those with ${\pm}1.5%$ of cable force change can be identified in at most 9 hours. This methodology is also investigated for more lightly monitored cases where only the air temperature measurement is available. Under such circumstances, the damages with cable force changes larger than ${\pm}1.5%$ can be detected within 12 hours. Even though not exhaustively reflecting the environmental temperature effects on the cable force variation, both the effective temperature and the air temperature can be considered as valid indices to eliminate these effects at high and low monitoring costs.
