The evaluation of shear modulus (or shear wave velocity) profile of the site is very important in various fields of geotechnical engineering. In the field, there exist spatial variations of shear modulus that case uncertainty in the geotechnical analysis or design. So it is necessary to evaluate the spatial variation of shear wave velocities of the soil site. In this study, the HWAW method is applied to the determination of a 3-D Vs map of soil site. The HWAW method, which is based on harmonic wavelet transforms, has been developed to determine phase and group velocities of waves. The HWAW method uses only the signal portion of the maximum local signal/noise ratio to evaluate the phase velocity in order to minimize the effect of the noise. The field testing of this method is relatively simple and fast because only one experimental setup, which consists of one pair of receivers on the surface, is needed using a short receiver spacing setup (1~3m). These characteristics make it possible to determine detailed local Vs profile in the site with lateral Vs variation and to evaluate 3-D Vs map by performing a series of tests on the grid. To estimate the applicability of the proposed method, field tests were performed. Through field applications validity and applicability of the proposed method were verified.

Generally, it is pointed out that a nonlinear analysis is needed to estimate accurately the water surface fluctuation and dynamic responses of a floating structure in case of large wave reflection. In this study, a frequency-domain method is applied and newly developed to analyze the nonlinear characteristics of the air-chamber floating breakwater. The air-chamber floating breakwater in this study can control well the wave transformation, motions of the structure and its natural frequency by adjusting the air depth in the chamber. Experiments are carried out to verify the numerical results. It is appeared that the mean water level is setup in the anti-node and setdown in the node, while the nonlinearity in wave profile is larger in the node than in the anti-node. Because of vertical mooring system, the sway, especially the time-independent nonlinear component, plays predominant role in the motion. On the other hand, the time-dependent component, as well as the time-independent one to the tensile force of mooring line contributes greatly, and the time averaged value presents tensional force oriented to the onshore side due drift force.

This article derives an analytic solution to determine the optimal size of multiple noncontinuous process and storage units. The total cost to be minimized consists of the setup cost of noncontinuous processing units and the inventory holding cost of feedstock/product storages. A novel approach, which is called PSW(Periodic Square Wave) model, is applied to represent the material flow among non-continuous units and storages. PSW model presumes that the material flow between unit and storage is periodic square wave shaped. The resulting optimal unit size has similar characteristics with the classical economic lot sizing model such as EOQ(Economic Order Quantity) or EPQ(Economic Production Quantity) model in a sense that the unit size is determined as the balance between setup and inventory holding cost. However, the influence of inventory holding cost of PSW model is different from that of EOQ/EPQ model. EOQ/EPQ model includes only the product inventory holding cost but PSW model includes all inventory holding costs around the non-continuous unit with proportional contribution. PSW model is suitable for analyzing interlinked process-storage system. The optimal lot size of PSW model is smaller than that of EOQ/EPQ model. This is quitea remarkable result considering that the EOQ/EPQ model has been is widely used since last half century.

Conventional non-destructive techniques for inspection of the weld in pipelines require significant test time and high cost. Ultrasonic guided waves have been widely studied and successfully applied to various non-destructive tests with advantage of the long-range inspection. In this paper, a study on the application of ultrasonic guided waves to the long-range inspection of the pipeline is presented using a long-range guided wave inspection system, Wavemaker SE16, GUL. The characteristics and setup of the long-range guided wave inspection system and experimental results in pipes of with various diameter are introduced. The experimental results in mock-up pipes with cluster type detects show that the minimum detectable wall thickness reduction with this guided wave system is $2\~3\%$ in the pipe cross section area. And the wall thickness reduction of $5\%$ in cross section area can be detected when actual detection level is used. Therefore, the applicability of the guided wave systeme to long-range inspection of wall thickness reduction in pipes is verified.

In this paper an electromechanically coupled isogeometric finite element is utilized to analyse Lamb wave excitation with piezoceramic actuators. An effective actuator design reduces the energy needed for Lamb wave excitation, which is beneficial if a structural health monitoring system should be applied for a structure. For a better understanding of the actuator behavior the piezoeceramics are studied both free and bonded at a structure. The numerical part of the analysis is performed utilizing isogeometric finite elements. To obtain the optimal performance for the numerical analysis the effect of k-refinement of the isogeometric element with respect to the convergence is studied and discussed. The optimal numerical setup with the best convergence rate is proposed and is validated with free piezoeceramic actuators. The validated model is then utilized to study the impact of actuator shape and adhesive bondline effect to the wave amplitude. The study shows that simplified analytical equations do not predict the optimal excitation frequencies for all piezoceramic designs accurately.

The article presents the methodology for finding material damping capacity at higher frequency and at relatively lower amplitudes. The Lamb wave dispersion theory and loss less finite element model is used to find the damping capacity of composite materials. The research has been focused on high frequency applications materials. The method was implemented on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) plates. The Lamb waves were generated using ultrasonic pulse generator setup. The hybrid method has been explored in this article and the results have been compared with bandwidth methods available in the literature.

Damping materials are widely used to reduce vibration or noise generation of structures. To understand their damping capability and for use in numerical simulations, their viscoelastic properties should be measured in the frequency range of interest. In this study, experimental setup is proposed to measure materials properties of very compliant polymer materials. The polymer materials used in this study are difficult to form into rod shapes, and typical resonance methods are not applicable. In the proposed measurement setup, the damping materials were modeled as a simple viscoelastic support at one end of the beam. Their properties were measured through analysis of their effects on the wave propagation characteristics of the beam structure.

HWAW 기법은 시간-주파수 해석을 통해 신호/잡음비가 최대가 되는 부분을 이용하여 실험 분산곡선을 획득하고 full wavefield를 고려하는 정모델링 기법을 통해 역산을 수행한다. 따라서 다른 표면파 기법에 비해 짧은 측선 설정이 가능하며 2차원 전단파 속도 분포를 도출하기에 유리하다. 수평층 가정이 성립되지 않는 지반에서의 HWAW 기법 적용성을 평가하기 위해서 수치해석 검증 연구를 수행하였다. HWAW 기법을 통해 각 거 리별로 획득한 실험 분산곡선들은 전반적으로 full wavefield를 고려한 이론 분산곡선과 유사한 형태를 보이는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 경사면 반사파에 의한 분산곡선의 왜곡현상은 적절한 감지기 간격 조절을 통해 줄여줄 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 도출된 실험 분산곡선은 가진 원으로부터 감지기까지의 영역보다는 감지기 사이 영역에 주되게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 이로써 HWAW 기법으로 합리적인 전단파 속도 분포의 도출이 가능한 것으로 판단되었으며 고찰한 결과를 바탕으로 실제 현장에서 지반 영상화를 시도하였다.

최근, 해안 침식 현상은 사회적, 경제적 측면에서 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문에, 각 지자체마다 각종 방지대책이 실시되고 있다. 그러나, 방지시설을 설치하기 전에 표사이동특성 등의 변화를 면밀히 검토하고, 이를 토대로 장기모니터링을 통한 지속적인 변화검토가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 현재 백사장 침식이 문제가 되고 있는 서해 중부 연안의 임의의 해빈(사빈)을 대상으로 장기 파랑특성분석을 통한 이상파랑, 계절별 탁월 파향, 파고, 주기 등을 고려한 평상파랑을 산정하고 이를 근거하여 수치모형실험을 통하여 파랑변형 및 표사이동에 대한 경향을 파악하였다.

피조 간섭계의 측정 정밀도를 향상시키기 위해서 광 분할기를 제거한 형태의 피조 간섭계를 구현했다. 단일 모드 광섬유를 구면파 광원으로 사용했고 끝 단을 반사면으로 만들기 위해서 경면 가공했다. 반사면은 적당한 각도로 경사지게 가공되어 있는데 이것은 간섭무늬의 CCD관찰을 용이하게 한다. 경사 단면 광섬유 광원을 이용한 피조 간섭계는 기존의 피조 간섭계에서 구면파를 왜곡시키는 광 분할기를 제거함으로써 측정 정밀도를 향상시킬 수 있었다 또한 동일한 시편의 측정결과를 비교함으로써 기존의 피조 간섭계로부터 개선된 정밀도를 정량적으로 구할 수 있었다. 그리고 경사 단면 광섬유 광원의 구면파정도를 알아보기 위해서 PS/PDI(Phase Shifting/Point Diffraction Interferometer)를 구현함으로써 광원의 구면파 정도를 실험적으로 검증했다.
