본 연구에서는 Coil Spring과 Viscous Damper 시스템의 동특성 분석을 위한 특성실험을 수행하였다. Coil Spring과 Viscous Damper 시스템은 원자력발전소 비상디젤발전기의 진동저감 및 지진력 저감을 위한 장치로 선정되었다. Viscous Damper 가진 속도에 따라서 그 특성이 다르게 나타나기 때문에 그 영향을 평가하여 진동저감과 지진력 저감효과를 동시에 고려할 수 있는 장치로서의 성능을 평가하고자 하는 것이다. 실험결과 수평방향의 경우 속도의존 비선형 거동이 두드러지게 나타나고 있는 반면 연직방향은 그러한 특성이 미미한 것으로 나타났다. 강성과 감쇠 모두 설계값보다 고평가 되고 있는 것으로 나타나서 전체 시스템의 면진 및 진동저감시 영향을 미칠 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper presents the results of experimental studies of the mechanical characteristics of the Coil Spring and Viscous Damper system. The Coil Spring and Viscous Damper systems were selected for the isolation of Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) which is located in Nuclear Power Plant (NPP). The Coil Spring and Viscous Damper systems were developed for, the operating vibration isolation and seismic isolation for scaled Model EDG System. The damping properties of the viscous damper changes as the variation of velocity. As a results, nonlinear damping characteristics of viscous damper system were evaluated.

This study evaluates the performance of a coil spring-viscous damper system for the vibration and seismic isolation of an Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) by measuring its operational vibration and seismic responses. The vibration performance of a coil spring-viscous damper system was evaluated by the vibration measurements for an identical EDG set with different base systems - one with an anchor bolt system and the other with a coil spring-viscous damper system. The seismic performance of the coil spring-viscous damper system was evaluated by seismic tests with a scaled model of a base-isolated EDG on a shaking table. The effects of EDG base isolation on the fragility curve and core damage frequency in a nuclear power plant were also investigated through a case study.

Inerter-based damping devices (IBBDs), which consist of inerter, spring and viscous damper, have been extensively investigated in vehicle suspension systems and demonstrated to be more effective than the traditional control devices with spring and viscous damper only. In the present study, the control performance on cable vibration reduction was studied for four different inerter-based damping devices, namely the parallel-connected viscous mass damper (PVMD), series-connected viscous mass damper (SVMD), tuned inerter dampers (TID) and tuned viscous mass damper (TVMD). Firstly the mechanism of the ball screw inerter is introduced. Then the state-space formulation of the cable-TID system is derived as an example for the cable-IBBDs system. Based on the complex modal analysis, single-mode cable vibration control analysis is conducted for PVMD, SVMD, TID and TVMD, and their optimal parameters and the maximum attainable damping ratios of the cable/damper system are obtained for several specified damper locations and modes in combination by the Nelder-Mead simplex algorithm. Lastly, optimal design of PVMD is developed for multi-mode vibration control of cable, and the results of damping ratio analysis are validated through the forced vibration analysis in a case study by numerical simulation. The results show that all the four inerter-based damping devices significantly outperform the viscous damper for single-mode vibration control. In the case of multi-mode vibration control, PVMD can provide more damping to the first four modes of cable than the viscous damper does, and their maximum control forces under resonant frequency of harmonic forced vibration are nearly the same. The results of this study clearly demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of PVMD in cable vibration control.

The present paper deals with the optimum performance of the passive hybrid control system for the benchmark highway bridge under the six earthquakes ground motion. The investigation is carried out on a simplified finite element model of the 91/5 highway overcrossing located in Southern California. A viscous fluid damper (known as VFD) or non-linear fluid viscous spring damper has been used as a passive supplement device associated with polynomial friction pendulum isolator (known as PFPI) to form a passive hybrid control system. A parametric study is considered to find out the optimum parameters of the PFPI system for the optimal response of the bridge. The effect of the velocity exponent of the VFD and non-linear FV spring damper on the response of the bridge is carried out by considering different values of velocity exponent. Further, the influences of damping coefficient and vibration period of the dampers are also examined on the response of the bridge. To study the effectiveness of the passive hybrid system on the response of the isolated bridge, it is compared with the corresponding PFPI isolated bridges. The investigation showed that passive supplement damper such as VFD or non-linear FV spring damper associated with PFPI system is significantly reducing the seismic response of the benchmark highway bridge. Further, it is also observed that non-linear FV spring damper hybrid system is a more promising strategy in reducing the response of the bridge compared to the VFD associated hybrid system.

The Emergency Diesel Generator(EDG) is a very important piece of equipment for the safety of a Nuclear Power Plant(NPP). In this study, the operating vibration or three kinds or EDG system was measured. The target EDG systems art Yonggwang 5 unit, Ulchin 2 unit and Ulchin 3 unit. The Yonggwang 5 and Ulchin 3 unit EDG system is the same type but the foundation systems are different. One is an anchor bolt type and the other is a spring and viscous-damper type. The purpose of this measurement is for a verification of the vibration isolation effect according to the foundation system. As a result. it can he said that the spring and viscous damper system of the EDG performed well for the vibration isolation.

This paper presents tile results of experimental studies of the isolated Model EDG Systems. For the experimental work, the scaled model of EDG system and the isolation systems were developed. The target EDG model is 16PC2-5V400 which was manufactured by the SEMT Pielstick corporation. The Coil Spring and Viscous Damper Systems were selected for the isolation system. The Coil Spring and Viscous Damper systems can reduce not only seismic forces but also the operating vibration. For the input seismic motions, the scenario earthquake and the artificial earthquakes which were developed as NRC design spectrum and Uniform hazard Spectrum(UHS) were selected. As a result, at least 20% of seismic forces were decreased as the isolation system.

Design routines of a torsional spring-viscous damper for a 1800 kW four cycle diesel engine-generator system are described. Modal techniques for system normalization and optimal equations for damper design are used to obtain proper design parameters of the damper. A prototype damper is manufactured according to the described design process and its two design parameters, stiffness and damping, are evaluated experimentally by torsional actuator test and free decay test. Experimentally obtained values of stiffness and damping coefficients showed good agreements with the designed values of the prototype damper.

본 연구는 웻지 시스템을 이용하여 3축 방향의 진동 및 충격을 완화시킬 수 있는 감쇠기에 관한 것이다. 기존의 수직방향 진동/충격에 대해서만 흡진하는 디스크 스프링 완충기를 개선하여 웻지를 추가함으로써 종 방향은 물론 횡 방향을 모두 포함한 3축에 대해 흡진이 가능한 댐퍼를 제안하였다. 수학적 모델을 수립하여, 댐퍼내의 중요한 요소로 작동하는 디스크 스프링과 웻지의 특성을 고찰하였으며, 실험을 통해 댐퍼의 거동을 고찰하였다. 수치 해석 결과와 실험 결과가 잘 일치함을 알 수 있었고, 소산된 에너지양을 구한 후, 수직 수평방향에 대한 등가 점성 감쇠를 구하였다.

추진효율 향상을 위해 개발된 초장행정 엔진은 저속에서도 큰 출력을 낼 수 있는 장점이 있는 반면에 이전에 비해 비틀림진동의 기진력은 상당히 증가하였다. 따라서 이전에는 튜닝 휠 또는 플라이휠만으로도 제어가 가능하였던 선박들도 연료절약형 초장행정 엔진이 탑재되는 경우에는 비틀림진동 댐퍼를 적용해야만 제어가 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 비틀림진동 제어를 위해 적용된 점성-스프링 댐퍼의 동특성을 확인하고 해당 축계에 최적 동특성을 갖는 점성-스프링 댐퍼를 설계하여 비틀림진동 특성을 검토하였다. 또한, 일부 엔진증속 지연현상을 지닐 우려가 있는 선박의 경우에는 대상축계의 진동 특성을 고려하여 최적댐퍼 설계이론에 따라 선정된 파라미터를 적절히 조정함으로써 과도한 피로누적에 따른 축 절손현상을 방지할 수 있는 축계 비틀림진동 제어 방안을 제시하였다.
