Accurate peak response estimation of a seismically excited structure with frictional damping system (FDS) is very difficult since the structure with FDS shows nonlinear behavior dependent on the structural period, loading characteristics, and relative magnitude between the frictional force and the excitation load. Previous studies have estimated the peak response of the structure with FDS by replacing a nonlinear system with an equivalent linear one or by employing the response spectrum obtained based on nonlinear time history and statistical analysis. In case that earthquake excitation is defined probabilistically, corresponding response of the structure with FDS becomes to have probabilistic distribution. In this study, nonlinear time history analyses were performed for the structure with FDS subjected to artificial earthquake excitation generated using Kanai-Tajimi filter. An equation for the probability density function (PDF) of the displacement response is proposed by adapting the PDF of the normal distribution. Coefficients of the proposed PDF are obtained by regression of the statistical distribution of the time history responses. Finally, the correlation between the resulting PDFs and statistical response distribution is investigated.

최근 개발된 항공기는 대부분 디지털 Fly-By-Wire(FBW) 혹은 광신호를 사용하는 Fly-By-Light(FBL) 시스템을 사용하고 있다. 이러한 시스템들은 조종사의 직접 조종으로는 불가능하거나 어려운 복잡한 임무의 수행, 비행범위 확장, 신뢰성 향상 등의 장점을 가지고 있다. FBW 기술을 적용한 비행제어기술이 발전됨에 따라 운항 시 안정성 확보 및 보다 효율적인 임무수행을 위해 비행영역(Flight Envelope) 보호의 개념이 항공기 설계에 있어 중요한 문제로 부각되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 dynamic trim 알고리즘, peak response estimation, 제어이득 스케쥴링 등의 방법을 이용해서 항공기의 비행영역 보호를 수행하고, 각 방법의 성능을 비교하여 최적의 제어기를 설계하는 연구를 수행하였다.

The main objective of this study is to examine the accuracy of the complete quadratic combination (CQC) rule with the modal responses defined by the ordinates of the uniform hazard spectra (UHS) to evaluate the peak responses of the multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems subjected to nonstationary seismic excitations. For the probabilistic analysis of the peak responses, it is considered that the seismic excitations can be modeled using evolutionary power spectra density functions with uncertain model parameters. More specifically, a seismological model and the Kanai-Tajimi model with the boxcar or the exponential modulating functions were used to define the evolutionary power spectral density functions in this study. A set of UHS was obtained based on the probabilistic analysis of transient responses of single-degree-of-freedom systems subjected to the seismic excitations. The results of probabilistic analysis of the peak responses of MDOF systems were obtained, and compared with the peak responses calculated by using the CQC rule with the modal responses given by the UHS. The comparison seemed to indicate that the use of the CQC rule with the commonly employed correlation coefficient and the peak modal responses from the UHS could lead to significant under- or over-estimation when contributions from each of the modes are similarly significant.

A finite element model is developed for dynamic response prediction of floating offshore wind turbine systems considering coupling of wind turbine, floater and mooring system. The model employs Morison's equation with Srinivasan's model for hydrodynamic force and a non-hydrostatic model for restoring force. It is observed that for estimation of restoring force of a small floater, simple hydrostatic model underestimates the heave response after the resonance peak, while non-hydrostatic model shows good agreement with experiment. The developed model is used to discuss influence of heave plates and modeling of mooring system on floater response. Heave plates are found to influence heave response by shifting the resonance peak to longer period, while response after resonance is unaffected. The applicability of simplified linear modeling of mooring system is investigated using nonlinear model for Catenary and Tension Legged mooring. The linear model is found to provide good agreement with nonlinear model for Tension Leg mooring while it overestimates the surge response for Catenary mooring system. Floater response characteristics under different wave directions for the two types of mooring system are similar in all six modes but heave, pitch and roll amplitudes is negligible in tension leg due to high restraint. The reduced amplitude shall lead to reduction in wind turbine loads.

The seismic slope stability is most often evaluated by the pseudo-static limit analysis, in which the earthquake loading is simplified as static inertial loads acting in horizontal and/or vertical directions. The transient loading is represented by constant acceleration via the pseudostatic coefficients. The result of a pseudostatic analysis is governed by the selection of the value of the pseudostatic coefficient. However, selection of the value is very difficult and often done in an ad hoc manner without a sound physical reasoning. In addition, the maximum acceleration is commonly estimated from the design guideline, which cannot accurately estimate the dynamic response of a slope. There is a need to perform a 2D dynamic analysis to properly define the dynamic response characteristics. This paper develops the modified one-dimensional seismic site response analysis. The modified site response analysis adjusts the density of the layers to simulate the change in mass and weight of the layers of the slope with depth. Multiple analyses are performed at various locations within the slope to estimate the change in seismic response of the slope. The calculated peak acceleration profiles with depth from the developed procedure are compared to those by the two-dimensional analyses. Comparisons show that the two methods result in remarkable match.

마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물은 구조물의 고유주기, 하중의 특성, 그리고 외부하중에 대한 마찰력의 상대적인 크기에 따라 강한 비선형성을 나타내므로, 구조물의 최대응답을 예측하기 매우 어렵다. 기존의 연구에서는 비선형 시스템을 등가의 선형 시스템으로 치환하거나, 구조물의 비선형 시간이력해석을 통한 응답스펙트럼 분석에 의한 간단한 확률해석에 의해 수행되었다. 지진 하중은 불확실성과 불규칙성을 갖고 있기 때문에 확률적으로 정의된다면, 지진하중을 받는 마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물의 응답 역시 확률분포를 나타낼 것이다. 본 논문에서는 Kanai-Tajimi 필터를 이용해 생성된 인공지진하중에 대해 마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물의 비선형 시간이력 해석이 수행되었다. 그리고 정규분포 확률밀도 함수에 선형 회귀분석을 통해 얻어진 구조물의 주기와 마찰력의 크기에 의한 변수를 업데이트 시킨 마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물의 변위 응답 확률밀도함수식이 제시된다.

The purpose of this study is quantitative analysis of the effects of the interactions between stream network and hillslope to hydrologic response functions. To this end general formulation of hydrologic response function is performed based on width function and grid framework. Target basins are Ipyeong and Tanbu basins. From the results of width function estimation even similar sized and closely located basins could have very different hydrologic response function. It is found out that the interactions between stream network and hillslope are essential factors of rainfall-runoff processes because their difference can make the hydrologic response function with positive skewness. The change of velocities of stream network and hillslope might influence the magnitude of peak but time to peak tends to more sensitively respond to velocities of stream network. Lag time of basin would be the result of complex interaction between drainage structures and dynamic properties of river basin.

Different procedures for estimation of the extreme global wave hydroelastic responses in ships are discussed. Firstly, stochastic procedures for application in detailed numerical studies (CFD) are outlined. The use of the First Order Reliability Method (FORM) to generate critical wave episodes of short duration, less than 1 minute, with prescribed probability content is discussed for use in extreme response predictions including hydroelastic behaviour and slamming load events. The possibility of combining FORM results with Monte Carlo simulations is discussed for faster but still very accurate estimation of extreme responses. Secondly, stochastic procedures using measured time series of responses as input are considered. The Peak-over-Threshold procedure and the Weibull fitting are applied and discussed for the extreme value predictions including possible corrections for clustering effects.

We present an average method based on the multirate signal processing and dynamic allocation average for the purpose of monitoring event-related potentials(ERP) and continuously and dynamically. In the proposed method, first, latency shifts are detected through the cross correlation between a current response and the reference response. Then, the multirate signal processing which is composed of up-sampler, lowpass filter, and down sampler is performed to compensate the latency shifts of the reference response, therefore we obtain the reference response with a peak latencies compenated by those of a current response. Finally, the single response is obtained by averaging the compensated reference response and a current response. In the simulation, the results of quantitative evaluation by simulation and the results using linical data are presented. From the result, the proposed method reflects dynamic time-varying ERP more exactly than previous methods and is also effective in consecutive monitoring of ERP.
