With the aid of advanced structural engineering, the construction of infrastructures has been recently accelerating to keep up with rapid economic growth. Construction activities and operation of transportation facilities cause civil petitions associated with vibration-induced damages or nuisances. As part of the decrease of vibration induced damage, the objective of this study is to develop vibration-controlled concrete with vibration-reduced materials, which can be recycled from obsolete materials, such as aged tires, plastics and etc. Appropriate mix proportion has been used for making 10 reinforced concrete panels with vibration-reduced materials, which have been tested to investigate on vibration reduction capability, based on the time and frequency domain analysis, and vibration velocity level analysis. Vibration-reduced mixtures are latex, styrofoam, rubber powder and plastic resin, which have been determined to by reduce vibration.

The regression analysis of the ground vibration data (particle velocity and vibration level) was carried out to find an empirical relation between the vibration velocity (PVS, PPV, $V_V$) and the vibration level. The regression results revealed that the correlation of the blast vibration velocity and vibration level was quite good. It seems that the empirical relation obtained in this research will be applied to evaluating and managing the various environmental vibrations.

The independent component analysis (ICA) technique is a source identification method that uses statistical independence to separate source signals from measured signals. It has been successfully applied to various fields such as medical care and communication. In this study, the ICA technique was adopted to analyze the vibration source contribution of plate structures. The theory of the ICA technique is introduced and the procedure of the vibration source contribution analysis based on the ICA technique is proposed. To investigate the applicability of the proposed method to plate structures, numerical examples are presented for a rectangular plate under harmonic force excitations. The results show that the proposed method could become an effective tool for the vibration source contribution analysis of a plate structure.

A formulation to perform static equilibrium and linear vibration analysis is presented in this paper. The formulation employs minimum number of equations of motion which are derived by using a partial velocity matrix. The static equilibrium analysis is performed first, then the linear vibration analysis is performed at the static equilibrium position. By using the formulation presented in this paper, static equilibrium and linear vibration analysis of a high speed electric train system are performed. A single bogie system, a power car vehicle, and a train system which consists of five vehicles are analyzed, respectively. Natural frequencies and a few lowest mode shapes of the two are identified in this paper.

In the prototype stage of a car developing program, the efficiency of trouble shooting is an important factor to be considered. Structural modifications by the design sensitivity analysis are applied to a steering wheel system for improving the idle vibration of the prototype passenger car. For the design sensitivity analysis, the experimental modal analysis for the steering system attached to a body-in-white is fulfilled and the modal parameters extracted from the experimental data are used to predict the effect of structural modification, The design sensitivity results rank the locations to be reinforced in terms of frequency variation. The modification of steering system according to the sensitivity analysis results shifted the resonant frequency of the system effectively. In addition, the idle test of the car after the structural modifications f steering system shows that the proposed method can reduce vibration of the steering wheel efficiently.

Main transformer's integrity assessment in nuclear power plant is estimated by the electrical test of electrical core and wire and the chemical analysis of insulating oil. Mechanical test or analysis has not been so far. So this study makes it with the vibration velocity rating. The vibration velocity rating in main transformer which is based on the real data of vibration velocity measurement under operating and other machinery vibration code such as ISO code is renewed.

The moire phenomena, which are induced by mask vibration due to the excitation of speakers, degrades the color purity of CRT. So it is important to eliminate this phenomena to obtain a good CRT design. In this study we analyze the mask vibration by experiment as well as finite element method. To obtain the finite element solutions efficiently, an equivalent model was employed. The experimental and analysis results show reasonable agreements. An enhanced design configuration of mask welding points are suggested through this study.

In general, to send out natural gas via a pipeline network across the nation in LNG terminal, high-pressure cryogenic pump supply highly compressed LNG to high-pressure vaporization facilities. The Number of cryogenic pumps determined the send-out amount in LNG receiving terminal. So it is main equipment at LNG production process and should be maintained on best conditions. In this paper, to find out the cause of high vibration at cryogenic pumps-motor system in LNG terminal, vibration spectrum analysis and motor current signature analysis have been performed together. Through the analysis, motor rotor bar problems are estimated by the vibration analysis and confirmed by the current analysis. So, it is demonstrated through the case study in this paper, how performing vibration analysis and current signature analysis together can reliable diagnosis rotor bar problems in pump-motor system.

An assumed stress quadrilateral thin/moderately thick plate element HQP4 based on the Mindlin/Reissner plate theory is proposed. The formulation is based on Hellinger-Reissner variational principle. Static and free vibration analyses of plates are carried out. Numerical examples are presented to show that the validity and efficiency of the present element for static and free vibration analysis of plates. Satisfactory accuracy for thin and moderately thick plates is obtained and it is free from shear locking for thin plate analysis.

For blasting vibration analysis, there are mostly two methods, firstly, far field vibration analysis to estimate limit of building damage, secondly, near field subterranean vibration analysis to estimate rock damage and subterranean structure facilities. The former has been mainly used in our country and aboard, the latter is mostly analysed by using Homberg's model. In this model, basic input data are acquired in far field surface vibration. But in the consideration of the results of being conducted in this area over the past few decade, it is required that Homberg's model is modified. For the purpose of this, measurements of near field vibration were first conducted in our country. But it was only proposed the measurement method and the method of analysis or prediction was not suggested. Accordingly, in this paper, measurements of near field subterranean vibration were conducted and the method of analysis or prediction of near field subterranean vibration would be suggested.
