The Integration technique of combining the measurement method with the fine precision of the sensor collecting the satellite-based information to determine the displacement space is available to a variety of diagnostic information. The measurement method by a GNSS with the sensors is needed since there will always be occasional occurrence of natural disasters caused by various environmental factors and the surroundings. Such attempts carried out nationally by distributed torsional displacement of the terrain and facilities. The combination of the various positioning analysis of mm-class for the facility of main area observed is required constantly in real time information of the USN/IoT Smart sensors and should be able to utilize such information as a precisely fine positioning information for the precisely fine displacement of the semi-permanent main facilities. In this study, for the installation of the receiving system, the USN/IoT base line positioning are easily accessible for the target bridges. Transmitting hourly from the received data is also executed in real time using the wireless Wi-Fi/Bluetooth bridges and related facilities to automatically process a fine position displacement. The results obtained from this method can be analyzed by real-time monitoring for a large structure or facilities for disaster prevention.

This paper presents an inelastic buckling behavior analysis of rectangular hollow steel tubes with geometrical imperfections under elevated temperatures. The main variables are the temperature loads, slenderness ratios, and exposure conditions at high temperatures. The material and structural properties of steels at different temperatures are based on Eurocode (EN 1993-1-2, 2005). In the elastic buckling analysis, the buckling strength decreases linearly with the exposure conditions, whereas the inelastic buckling analysis shows that the buckling strength decreases in clusters based on the exposure conditions of strong and weak axes. The buckling shape of the rectangular steel column in the elastic buckling mode, which depicts geometrical imperfection, shows a shift in the position at which bending buckling occurs when the lower section of the member is exposed to high temperatures. Furthermore, lateral torsional buckling occurs owing to cross-section deformation when the strong axial plane of the model is exposed to high temperatures. The elastic buckling analysis indicates a conservative value when the model is exposed to a relatively low temperature, whereas the inelastic buckling analysis indicates a conservative value at a certain temperature or higher. The comparative results between the inelastic buckling analysis and Eurocode 3 show that a range exists in which the buckling strength in the design equation result is overestimated at elevated temperatures, and the shapes of the buckling curves are different.

This study focuses on demonstrating the effectiveness of vibration control of tuned rotary mass damper (TRMD) for reducing the bidirectional and torsional response of the irregular asymmetric structure with voided slabs under earthquake excitations. The TRMD arranged in plane of one-story eccentric structure is proposed as a distributed tuned rotary mass damper (DTRMD) system. Lagrange's equation is used to derive the equations of motion of the controlled system. The optimum position and number of TRMD are numerically investigated under harmonic excitation and the control effects of different distributions are discussed. Furthermore, a shaking table test is conducted under different excitation cases, including free vibration, forced vibration and seismic wave to investigate the absorption performance of the device. The numerical simulations of different distributions of the TRMDs show that the DTRMDs are more effective in reduction of the displacement response of the asymmetric structure under the same mass ratio, even when the degree of eccentricity becomes large. However, with small degree of eccentricity, the unreasonable asymmetrical arrangement may cause the increase of the peak value of the rotational angular displacement. Finally, the experimental investigations exhibit similar results of translational displacement of the structure. It is concluded that the vibration of the irregular asymmetric structure can be controlled more economically and effectively by reducing the mass ratio through reducing the quantity of TRMDs at the high stiffness end.

본 논문은 면내휨을 받는 2변 탄성지지 2변 단순지지 보강장방형판에 대한 유한요소법을 이용하고, 비보강장방형판에 대해 고전적 해석법에 의해 좌굴해석한 것이다. 4변 단순지지, 2변 단순지지 및 2변 고정 장방형 판에 대해 기존해와 고전적 해석해 및 유한요소해을 비교하여 고전적 해석방법 및 유한요소법의 신뢰도를 입증하였다. 장방형 보강재의 뒤틀림 강성은 무시될 수 있으므로 탄성지지변의 보강재는 뒤틀림의 영향을 파악하기 위해 I형을 사용하였다. 탄성지지변을 갖는 장방형 판의 좌굴강도가 비틀림 강성 및 뒤틀림 강성에 따라 유한요소법 및 고전적 해석법에 의해 계산되고 비교되었다. 판의 지지변 사이에 보강재가 있는 경우 4변 단순지지, 2변 단순지지 및 2변 고정 보강장방형판에 대해 유한요소법에 의한 좌굴강도는 장방형판요소와 비틀림 및 뒤틀림을 고려한 보요소의 강성매트릭스를 조합하여 고유치 문제를 풀므로써 계산될 수 있다. 유한요소법에 의해 지지변 사이의 장방형 보강재 위치와 지지변 상의 I형 보강재의 비틀림(J) 및 뒤틀림 상수 (I/sub W/)에 따른 보강장방형판의 좌굴강도를 구하여 비교하고 효율적인 보강재의 위치를 결정하였다.

In recent years the monitoring of structural behavior through acquisition of vibrational data has become common practice. In addition, recent advances in sensor development have made the collection of diverse dynamic information feasible. Other than the commonly collected acceleration information, Global Position System (GPS) receivers and non-contact, optical techniques have also allowed for the synchronous collection of highly accurate displacement data. The fusion of this heterogeneous information is crucial for the successful monitoring and control of structural systems especially when aiming at real-time estimation. This task is not a straightforward one as measurements are inevitably corrupted with some percentage of noise, often leading to imprecise estimation. Quite commonly, the presence of noise in acceleration signals results in drifting estimates of displacement states, as a result of numerical integration. In this study, a new approach based on a time domain identification method, namely the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF), is proposed for correcting the "drift effect" in displacement or rotation estimates in an online manner, i.e., on the fly as data is attained. The method relies on the introduction of artificial white noise (WN) observations into the filter equations, which is shown to achieve an online correction of the drift issue, thus yielding highly accurate motion data. The proposed approach is demonstrated for two cases; firstly, the illustrative example of a single degree of freedom linear oscillator is examined, where availability of acceleration measurements is exclusively assumed. Secondly, a field inspired implementation is presented for the torsional identification of a tall tower structure, where acceleration measurements are obtained at a high sampling rate and non-collocated GPS displacement measurements are assumed available at a lower sampling rate. A multi-rate Kalman Filter is incorporated into the analysis in order to successfully fuse data sampled at different rates.

코어 위치변화에 따른 횡력저항성능 분석을 위하여, 대칭 평면형 20층 건물을 대상으로 3차원 구조해석을 수행하였다. 중심 코어, 1축 편심 코어, 2축 편심 코어로 구분하여 4가지 해석모델을 구성하고, 고유치해석, 풍하중 해석, 지진하중 해석을 수행하였다. 중심 코어 건물에서는 비틀림이 발생하지 않았으나, 편심 코어의 배치에 따라 휨과 비틀림이 복합적으로 발생하였으며 횡력저항성능이 저하되었다. 코어의 편심 배치에 따른 풍하중 크기의 변화는 작으나, 최대 횡변위는 코어의 편심 배치에 의하여 크게 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 편심 코어의 경우 횡방향 강성의 저하로 인하여 중심 코어에 비해 지진하중이 다소 감소하였으나, 비틀림의 영향으로 최대 층간변위비는 크게 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과들을 바탕으로 코어의 위치에 따른 구조거동을 확인하고, 계획 및 설계 단계에서 코어 배치의 가이드라인으로 활용할 수 있다.
