This paper deals with the numerical model of a bracing-friction damper system and its deployment using the optimal slip load distribution for the seismic retrofitting of a damaged building. The Slotted Bolted Connection (SBC) type friction damper system was tested to investigate its energy dissipation characteristic. Test results coincided with the numerical ones using the conventional model of a bracing-friction damper system. The placement of this device was numerically explored to apply it to the assumed damaged-building and to evaluate its efficiency. It was found by distributing the slip load that minimizes the given performance indicies based on structural response. Numerical results for the damaged building retrofitted with this slip load distribution showed that the seismic design of the bracing-friction damper system under consideration is effective for the structural response reduction.

This research has been conducted in order to investigate the effects of peak ground velocity (PGV) of near-field earthquakes on base-isolated structures mounted on Single Friction Pendulum (SFP), Double Concave Friction Pendulum (DCFP) and Triple Concave Friction Pendulum (TCFP) bearings. Seismic responses of base-isolated structures subjected to simplified near field pulses including the forward directivity and the fling step pulses are considered in this study. Behaviour of a two dimensional single story structure mounting on SFP, DCFP and TCFP isolators investigated employing a variety range of isolators and the velocity (PGV) of the forward directivity and the fling step pulses as the main variables of the near field earthquakes. The maximum isolator displacement and base shear are selected as main seismic responses. Peak seismic responses of different isolator types are compared to emphasize the efficiency of each one under near field earthquakes. It is demonstrated that rising the PGVs increases the isolator displacement and base shear of structure. The effects of the forward directivity are greater than the fling step pulses. Furthermore, TCFP isolator is more effective to control the near field effects than the other friction pendulum isolators are. This efficiency is more significant in pulses with longer period and greater PGVs.

Existing FPS(Friction Pendulum System) is isolation system which is possible to isolate structures by pendulum characteristic from ground vibration. Structural natural frequency could be decided by designing the radius of curvature of FPS. Thus, response vibration could be reduced by changing natural frequency of structures from FPS. But effective periods of recorded seismic wave were various and estimation of earthquake characteristic could be difficult. If effective periods of seismic wave correspond to natural frequency of structures with FPS, resonance can be occurred. Therefore, CFPBS(Cone-type Friction Pendulum Bearing System) was developed for controlling the response acceleration and displacement by the slope of friction surfaces. Structural natural frequency with CFPBS can be changed according to position of ball on the friction surface which was designed cone-type. Therefore, Divergence of response could be controlled by CFPBS which had constantly changing natural frequency with low modal participation factor in wide-range. In this study, Seismic performance of CFPBS was evaluated by numerical analysis and shaking table test.

Middle size of membrane retractable roof is under 25m span which consists of various moving systems. Trolley is the system that leads the membrane to parking place, transferring the load from the membrane to structural cable. When membrane closes roof completely, thus, structural behavior of trolley, which may contain various material with different friction coefficients, should be investigated by vertical load. Nummerical simulation of trolley prototypes, in this research, was performed by incrementation of vertical load. Consequently, this paper studied proper friction characteristics and provided the effective inner materials of trolley.

Friction problems involving rubber components are frequently encountered in industrial applications. Their treatment within the framework of numerical simulations by means of the Finite Element Method (FEM) is the main issue of this paper. Special emphasis is placed on the choice of a suitable material model and the formulation of a contact model specially designed for the particular characteristics of rubber friction. A coupled thermomechanical approach allows for consideration of the influence of temperature on the frictional behavior. The developed tools are implemented in the commercial FE code ABAQUS. They are validated taking the sliding motion of a rubber tread block as example. Such simulations are frequently encountered in tire design and development. The simulations are carried out with different formulations for the material and the frictional behavior. Comparison of the obtained results with experimental observations enables to judge the suitability of the applied formulations on a structural scale.

In this paper, 2-axis driving mechanism, which uses voice coil motor (VCM), is proposed to measure the friction force. The proposed VCM actuator consists of two parts; structural part and magnetic circuit part. Structural part is simplified to perform the friction experiments. Magnetic circuit part is composed of two parts. The experiments are accomplished by changing the mass of moving part. Through the experiments, optimal dimension is selected. Finally, the experimental results are verified and the optimal case is applied to the 2-axis driving mechanism, optical image stabilization actuator.

이 논문에서는 LNG 탱크를 지진으로부터 격리시키는 면진장치의 일종인 마찰진자시스템(FPS)의 성능변화에 따른 구조물 응답 및 지진취약도를 분석하였다. 마찰진자시스템(FPS)에 사용되는 마찰재 시편을 PVDF와 $TiO_2$의 배합비율에 따라 제작하였다. 제작한 마찰재 시편의 물성을 면진받침에 적용하여 구조물의 가속도 응답 및 외조 콘크리트의 하부 모멘트에 대하여 분석하고 각각의 한계상태에 대해 지진취약도를 분석하였다. 구조물의 지진취약도 분석을 통한 최적의 배합비를 가지는 마찰재 선정을 위해 각 한계상태에 따른 지진취약도 곡선의 가중치 설정 후 조합이 필요한 것을 확인하였다. 이를 통하여 다양한 구조물에 적용되는 마찰진자시스템의 요구 성능을 만족하는 최적의 마찰재 선정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

Friction stir welding and friction stir processing is a new solid state processing technique for ioining and micro..structural modification in metallic materials. It has been applied not only joining for light metals but also modification of the microstructure to enhance mechanical properties. In thin study, we investigated the mechanical properties for applied friction stir welding and processing under various parameters such as probe diameter, probe type, traveling speed and rotating speed for 5456-H116 AI allov. As a result of experiments, optimum condition of friction stir welding is traveling speed of 15mm/min, rotating speed of 500RPM at 6mm diameter probe. Moreover, in the case of friction stir processing, the optimum condition is traveling speed of 15mm/min, rotating speed of 250RPM at full screw probe. As above mentioned, the mechanical characteristics enhanced with the decreasing of traveling speed and the increasing of friction areas because of plastic flow due to high friction heat. These result can be used as reference data for ship repairment.

스카이브릿지가 연결되는 건물에 강접합될 경우에는 비정형성이 크게 되어 지진하중에 매우 불리하게 거동할 수 있다. 따라서, 마찰진자베어링(FPS)이나 납고무베어링(LRB)와 같은 연결시스템을 사용하여 스카이브릿지와 구조물을 연결하게 된다. 이러한 연결시스템은 큰 지진하중이 발생하였을 때 스카이브릿지가 연결된 건물에서 분리되어 낙교하지 않도록 신중하게 설계되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 수직방향 인장력에대해서 저항성이 없는 마찰진자감쇠기를 이용한 연결시스템을 설계하는 과정에서 반드시 검토해야할 사항을 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 실제 시공된 누리꿈 스퀘어를 예제구조물로 선택하였고 예상되는 지진하중이 가해졌을 때 스카이브릿지 연결시스템에서 발생하는 응답을 분석하여 낙교를 방지할 수 있는 설계 프로세스를 정립하였다.

일정한 크기의 마찰력을 도입한 가새(FSB)는 에너지를 소산시키는 효과적인 구조 부재이며, 가새의 축력이 마찰력을 넘지 않을 때까지만 탄성 거동을 한다. 본 연구에서는 FSB 개념을 보다 확장시켜서 가새를 죄는 마찰력의 크기를 능동적으로 변화시킬 수 있는 능동 조임 마찰 가새(AFSB)를 착상하여 단자유도 구조물에 적용하고 조화 하중으로 기진시켜 그 거동을 시뮬레이션 하여 FSB와 비교 분석해본다. 이를 위해 간단하고 효과적인 알고리즘을 개발해보았다. 연구 결과, 지반 가속도 값이 그다지 크지 않은 경우, AFSB는 초기에 오우버슈팅이 발생하는 문제만 제외하고 FSB에 비해 효과적으로 진폭과 밑면 전단력을 감소시켰다.
