Various monitoring systems have been implemented in civil infrastructure to ensure structural safety and integrity. In long-term monitoring, these systems generate a large amount of data, where anomalies are not unusual and can pose unique challenges for structural health monitoring applications, such as system identification and damage detection. Therefore, developing efficient techniques is quite essential to recognize the anomalies in monitoring data. In this study, several machine learning techniques are explored and implemented to detect and classify various types of data anomalies. A field dataset, which consists of one month long acceleration data obtained from a long-span cable-stayed bridge in China, is employed to examine the machine learning techniques for automated data anomaly detection. These techniques include the statistic-based pattern recognition network, spectrogram-based convolutional neural network, image-based time history convolutional neural network, image-based time-frequency hybrid convolution neural network (GoogLeNet), and proposed ensemble neural network model. The ensemble model deliberately combines different machine learning models to enhance anomaly classification performance. The results show that all these techniques can successfully detect and classify six types of data anomalies (i.e., missing, minor, outlier, square, trend, drift). Moreover, both image-based time history convolutional neural network and GoogLeNet are further investigated for the capability of autonomous online anomaly classification and found to effectively classify anomalies with decent performance. As seen in comparison with accuracy, the proposed ensemble neural network model outperforms the other three machine learning techniques. This study also evaluates the proposed ensemble neural network model to a blind test dataset. As found in the results, this ensemble model is effective for data anomaly detection and applicable for the signal characteristics changing over time.

The Incheon Bridge, which was opened to the traffic in October 2009, is an 18.4 km long sea-crossing bridge connecting the Incheon International Airport with the expressway networks around the Seoul metropolitan area by way of Songdo District of Incheon City. This bridge is an integration of several special featured bridges and the major part of the bridge consists of cable-stayed spans. This marine cable-stayed bridge has a main span of 800 m wide to cross the vessel navigation channel in and out of the Incheon Port. In waterways where ship collision is anticipated, bridges shall be designed to resist ship impact forces, and/or, adequately protected by ship impact protection (SIP) systems. For the Incheon Bridge, large diameter circular dolphins as SIP were made at 44 locations of the both side of the main span around the piers of the cable-stayed bridge span. This world's largest dolphin-type SIP system protects the bridge against the collision with 100,000 DWT tanker navigating the channel with speed of 10 knots. Diameter of the dolphin is up to 25 m. Vessel collision risk was assessed by probability based analysis with AASHTO Method-II. The annual frequency of bridge collapse through the risk analysis for 71,370 cases of the impact scenario was less than $0.5{\times}10^{-4}$ and satisfies design requirements. The dolphin is the circular sheet pile structure filled with crushed rock and closed at the top with a robust concrete cap. The structural design was performed with numerical analyses of which constitutional model was verified by the physical model experiment using the geo-centrifugal testing equipment. 3D non-linear finite element models were used to analyze the structural response and energy-dissipating capability of dolphins which were deeply embedded in the seabed. The dolphin structure secures external stability and internal stability for ordinary loads such as wave and current pressure. Considering failure mechanism, stability assessment was performed for the strength limit state and service limit state of the dolphins. The friction angle of the crushed stone as a filling material was reduced to $38^{\circ}$ considering the possibility of contracting behavior as the impact.

본 연구에서는 복합형 지지방식으로 개발된 MC앵커에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. MC앵커는 선단 정착장치가 확장되어 천공된 공벽에 지압력이 발휘됨에 따라 인발력 증대와 그라우팅이 제대로 이루어지지 않을 경우에도 앵커체가 지반에서 탈락하지 않는 특성이 있다. 또한, 앵커강선과 더불어 보강철근을 삽입하여 인장손실을 감소시키는 동시에 시공성을 높이고 앵커강선의 손실이 발생하였을 때 네일의 역할을 기대할 수 있어 장기적인 안정성 향상을 꾀할 수 있다. 그러나, MC앵커와 같은 복합형 앵커는 마찰형 앵커와 지지구조가 다르기 때문에 지반과 그라우트의 마찰력에 의한 인발력 산정방식은 적합하지 않다. 특히, 국내의 경우에는 복합형 앵커에 대하여 지반특성을 고려한 설계법이 명확하게 정립되어 있지 않아 복합형 앵커의 인발력이 과소 또는 과대 평가되는 문제점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 복합형 앵커의 일종인 MC앵커의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 강도변화가 심한 셰일지반을 대상으로 총 9개소에서 시험앵커를 시공하여 인발, 인장 및 장기변위를 측정하였다. 또한, 시험결과를 일반 마찰형 앵커의 경우와 비교, 분석하여 MC앵커의 거동 특성을 평가하였으며, 시험결과 셰일층에서 MC앵커는 일반 마찰형 앵커에 비해 인발력 증대효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

음향파 완전파형역산은 탄성파 탐사를 통해 얻은 관측자료와 음향파 모델링자료를 맞춤으로써 지층의 속도모델을 고해상도로 구축하는 최적화 과정이다. 기존의 스트리머를 이용한 해양 탄성파 탐사 자료에 대한 음향파 완전파형역산에서는 압력자료만을 활용하여 P파 속도모델을 구축한다. 그러나 최근 다성분 해저면 탄성파 탐사기술의 발달로 다성분자료의 취득 사례가 늘고 있으며, 이에 따라 해양에서 얻어지는 다성분 자료를 활용한 음향파 완전파형역산 기법에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 수평 및 수직 입자가속도 자료를 활용한 효과적인 음향파 완전파형역산 전략을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 우선 음향파 모델링으로 제작된 압력 및 입자가속도 자료와 민감도커널을 분석하여 파형역산 과정에서 각 자료의 성분별 특성을 관찰하였다. 압력 자료에 함께 나타났던 직접파, 다이빙파 및 반사파가 수직 및 수평 입자가속도 자료에서 파동의 진행방향에 따라 분리되어 나타나는 것을 확인하였으며, 수평 입자가속도 자료는 상부의 장파장구조를, 수직 입자가속도 자료는 하부의 장파장구조와 전체 영역에서의 단파장구조를 구축하는 데 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 분석 결과를 바탕으로 입자가속도 자료만을 활용해 음향파 완전파형역산을 수행하는 순차적 자료 활용전략을 제시하며, 압력자료를 얻지 못하였거나 품질이 낮은 경우에도 입자가속도 자료를 활용하는 음향파 완전파형역산을 통해 양호한 P파 속도모델을 구축할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper aims to develop a SI(structural identification) technique using the kinetic energy optimization technique(KEOT) and the direct matrix updating method(DMUM) to decide on optimal location of sensors and to update FE model respectively, which ultimately contributes to a composition of more effective SHM. Owing to the characteristic structural flexing behavior of cable bridges, which makes them vulnerable to any vibration, systematic and continuous structural health monitoring (SHM) is pivotal for them. Since it is necessary to select optimal measurement locations with the fewest possible measurements and also to accurately assess the structural state of a bridge for the development of an effective SHM, a SI technique is as much important to accurately determine the modal parameters of the current structure based on the data optimally obtained. In this study, the KEOT was utilized to determine the optimal measurement locations, while the DMUM was utilized for FE model updating. As a result of experiment, the required number of measurement locations derived from KEOT based on the target mode was reduced by approximately 80 % compared to the initial number of measurement locations. Moreover, compared to the eigenvalue of the modal experiment, an improved FE model with a margin of error of less than 1 % was derived from DMUM. Finally, the SI technique for long-span bridges proposed in this study, which utilizes both KEOT and DMUM, is proven effective in minimizing the number of sensors while accurately determining the structural dynamic characteristics.

As a testbed for various structural health monitoring (SHM) technologies, a super-tall structure - the 610 m-tall Guangzhou Television and Sightseeing Tower (GTST) in southern China - is currently under construction. This study aims to explore state-of-the-art wireless sensing technologies for monitoring the ambient vibration of such a super-tall structure during construction. The very nature of wireless sensing frees the system from the need for extensive cabling and renders the system suitable for use on construction sites where conditions continuously change. On the other hand, unique technical hurdles exist when deploying wireless sensors in real-life structural monitoring applications. For example, the low-frequency and low-amplitude ambient vibration of the GTST poses significant challenges to sensor signal conditioning and digitization. Reliable wireless transmission over long distances is another technical challenge when utilized in such a super-tall structure. In this study, wireless sensing measurements are conducted at multiple heights of the GTST tower. Data transmission between a wireless sensing device installed at the upper levels of the tower and a base station located at the ground level (a distance that exceeds 443 m) is implemented. To verify the quality of the wireless measurements, the wireless data is compared with data collected by a conventional cable-based monitoring system. This preliminary study demonstrates that wireless sensing technologies have the capability of monitoring the low-amplitude and low-frequency ambient vibration of a super-tall and slender structure like the GTST.

The aerodynamic characteristics of vehicles are critical to assess vehicle safety and passenger comfort for vehicles running on long span bridges in a windy environment. However, in previous wind-vehicle-bridge (WVB) system analysis, the aerodynamic interference between the vehicle and the bridge was seldom considered, which will result in changing aerodynamic coefficients. In this study, the aerodynamic coefficients of a high-sided truck on the ground (ground case) and a typical bridge deck (bridge deck case) are determined in a wind tunnel. The effects of existent structures including the bridge deck and bridge accessories on the high-sided vehicle's aerodynamic characteristics are investigated. A three-dimensional analytical framework of a fully coupled WVB system is then established based on the finite element method. By inputting the aerodynamic coefficients of both cases into the WVB system separately, the vehicle safety and passenger comfort are assessed, and the critical accidental wind speed for the truck on the bridge in a windy environment is derived. The differences in the bridge response between the windward case and the leeward case are also compared. The results show that the bridge deck and the accessories play a positive role in ensuring vehicle safety and improving passenger comfort, and the influence of aerodynamic interference on the response of the bridge is weak.

The development of advanced Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor(IGBT)has enabled high-frequency switching operation and has improved the performance of PWM inverters for motor drive. However, the high rate of dv/dt of IGBT has adverse effects on motor insulation stress. In many motor drive applications, the inverter and motor are separated and it requires long motor feds. The long cable contributes high frequency ringing at the motor terminal and it results in hight surge voltage which stresses the motor insulation. The inverter output filter and RDC snubber are conventional method which can reduce the surge voltage. In this paper, we propose the new low loss snubber to reduce the motor terminal surge voltage. The snubber consists of the series connection of charging/discharging capacitor and the voltage-clamped capacitor. At IGBT turn-off, the snubber starts to operate when the IGBT voltage reaches the voltage-clamped level. Since dv/dt is decreased by snubber operating, the peak level of the surge voltage can be reduced. Also the snubber operates at the IGBT voltage above the voltage-clamped level, the snubber loss is largely reduced comparing with RDC snubber. The proposed snubber enables to reduce the motor terminal surge voltage with low loss.
