Mg alloy is the lightest material of structural materials and is noticed for lightweight automotive parts because of excellent castability, superior ductility and damping capacity than Al alloy. But Mg Alloy is poor corrosion resistance and high temperature creep properties. In this study, Mg Matrix Composites were fabricated by squeeze casting method to improve high temperature creep properties and damping capacity. Hybrid Mg composites reinforced with Alborex, graphite particle, and SiCp was improved creep properties and damping capacity compared with Mg alloy. Compared to the length ($9\mu\textrm{m}, 27\mu\textrm{m}, 45\mu\textrm{m} etc.$), Hybrid Mg composites reinforced with SiCp, one of the most superior of the length and Alborex were more superior than those reinforced with graphite particle and Alborex in mechanical properties, creep characteristics, and damping capacity, etc.

The aerodynamic damping is an essential factor that can considerably affect the dynamic response of the cable-stayed bridge induced by crosswind load. However, developing an accurate and efficient aerodynamic damping model is crucial for evaluating the crosswind load-induced response on cable-stayed bridges. Therefore, this study proposes a new method for identifying aerodynamic damping of the bridge structures under crosswind load using an extended Kalman filter (EKF) and the particle filter (PF) algorithm. The EKF algorithm is introduced to capture the aerodynamic damping ratio. PF technique is used to select the optimal spectral representation of the noise. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed solution were investigated through full-scale vibration measurement data of the crosswind-induced on the bridge's girder. The results show that the proposed solution can generate an efficient and robust estimation. The errors between the target and extracted values are around 0.01mm and 0.003^o, respectively, for the vertical and torsional motion. The relationship between the amplitude and the aerodynamic damping ratio is linear for small reduced wind velocity and nonlinear with the increasing value of the reduced wind velocity. Finally, the results show the influence of the level of noise.

Damping systems have been widely used to various industrial structures and are mainly hydraulic and pneumatic devices nowadays. In this work, a novel damping system based on the colloidal suspension in the field of nanotechnology is investigated. The colloidal suspension consists of Iyophobic working fluid and hydrophobic-coated porous particle. The mechanism of mechanical energy dissipation in damping system based on the colloidal suspension with nano-porous particles is different from that of the existing hydraulic damping system. The absorbed energy of the damping system using colloidal suspension can be calculated through the mechanical equilibrium condition by the superficial tensions of liquid-gas Interface in the hydrophobic surface in nano-porous particles. The results from an analytic approach have a reasonable agreement with experimental results.

The semi-active impact damper (SAID) is proposed to improve the damping efficiency of traditional passive impact dampers. In order to investigate its damping mechanism and vibration control effects on realistic engineering structures, a 20-story nonlinear benchmark building is used as the main structure. The studies on system parameters, including the mass ratio, damping ratio, rigid coefficient, and the intensity of excitation are carried out, and their effects both on linear and nonlinear indexes are evaluated. The damping mechanism is herein further investigated and some suggestions for the design in high-rise buildings are also proposed. To validate the superiority of SAID, an optimal passive particle impact damper ($PID_{opt}$) is also investigated as a control group, in which the parameters of the SAID remain the same, and the optimal parameters of the $PID_{opt}$ are designed by differential evolution algorithm based on a reduced-order model. The numerical simulation shows that the SAID has better control effects than that of the optimized passive particle impact damper, not only for linear indexes (e.g., root mean square response), but also for nonlinear indexes (e.g., component energy consumption and hinge joint curvature).

A particle tuned mass damper (PTMD) system is the combination of a traditional tuned mass damper (TMD) and a particle damper (PD). This paper presents the results of an experimental and analytical study of the damping performance of a PTMD attached to the top of a benchmark model under wind load excitation. The length ratio of the test model is 1:200. The vibration reduction laws of the system were explored by changing some system parameters (including the particle material, total auxiliary mass ratio, the mass ratio between container and particles, the suspending length, and wind velocity). An appropriate analytical solution based on the concept of an equivalent single-unit impact damper is presented. Comparison between the experimental and analytical results shows that, with the proper use of the equivalent method, reasonably accurate estimates of the dynamic response of a primary system under wind load excitation can be obtained. The experimental and simulation results show the robustness of the new damper and indicate that the damping performance can be improved by controlling the particle density, increasing the amount of particles, and aggravating the impact of particles etc.

The Test Signal Method is adopted to analyze the impact of thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC) on sub-synchronous oscillation. The results show that the simulation system takes the risk of Sub-synchronous Oscillation (SSO) while the TCSC is operating in the capacitive region. A supplementary excitation damping controller (SEDC) is used to mitigate SSO caused by the TCSC. A new optimization method which is aimed for optimal phase compensation is proposed. This method is realized by using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. The simulation results show that the SEDC designed by this method has superior suitability, and that the secure operation scope of the TCSC is greatly increased.

In this paper, optimal selection of the unified power flow controller (UPFC) damping controller parameters in order to improve the power system dynamic response and its stability based on two modified intelligent algorithms have been proposed. These algorithms are based on a modified intelligent particle swarm optimization (PSO) and continuous genetic algorithm (GA). After extraction of UPFC dynamic model, intelligent PSO and genetic algorithms are used to select the effective feedback signal of the damping controller; then, to compare the performance of the proposed UPFC controller in damping the critical modes of a single-machine infinite-bus (SMIB) power system, the simulation results are presented. The comparison shows the good performance of both presented PSO and genetic algorithms in an optimal selection of UPFC damping controller parameters and damping oscillations.

본 논문은 고체 로켓 모터 연소실 내의 연소과정 중 발생하는 연소 불안정 현상을 억제하는 여러 요소들 중 입자에 의한 감쇠와 유동방향 변환 감쇠에 대한 선행연구의 연구결과를 정리 분석하였다. 입자에 의한 감쇠는 연소실 내에서 발생하는 고주파 연소불안정을 억제하는데 있어 가장 효과적이며 입자의 직경과 질량 분율에 영향을 받는다. 한편 입자에 의한 감쇠에 비해 적은 감쇠량을 갖는 유동방향 변환 감쇠는 추진제의 구조에 따라 변하며, 추진제 표면에서 생성된 와도를 고려한다면 펌핑에 의한 증폭을 고려해야한다. 그러나 추진제의 형상이 원통형일 경우 유동방향 변환 감쇠와 펌핑에 의한 증폭의 크기는 같아지고 상쇄가 일어나 연소 안정성을 보다 쉽게 평가할 수 있다.

The effects of mean particle size and uniformity coefficient of dredged soils to the liquefaction resistance strength and dynamic characteristics are experimentally studied in this paper. Representative 4 mean particle sizes and 3 uniformity coefficients were selected and 12 representative particle size distribution curves which have different mean particle sizes and uniformity coefficients, were artificially manufactured using the real dredged river soil. Cyclic triaxial tests and torsional shear tests were carried out to analyze the effect of mean particle size and uniformity coefficient to the liquefaction resistance strength and dynamic characteristics of soils.

This experimental study investigated the flow characteristics for regular waves passing a rectangular floating structure in a two-dimensional wave tank. The particle image velocimetry (PIV) was employed to obtain the velocity field in the vicinity of the structure. The phase average was used to extract the mean flow and turbulence property from repeated instantaneous PIV velocity profiles. The mean velocity field represented the vortex generation and evolution on both sides of the structure. The turbulence properties, including the turbulence length scale and the turbulent kinetic energy budget were investigated to characterize the flow interaction between the regular wave and the structure. The results shaw the vortex generated near the structure corners, which are known as the eddy-making damping or viscous damping. However, the vortex induced by the wave is longer than the roll natural period of the structure, which presents the phenomena opposing the roll damping effect; that is, the vortex may increase the roll motion under the wave condition longer than the roll natural period.
