This work is to propose a structural design and analysis procedure for development of the low noise 1kW class small wind turbine system which will be applicable to relatively low speed region like Korea and for the domestic use. The proposed structural configuration has a sandwich composite structure with the E-glass/Epoxy face sheets and the Urethane foam core for lightness, structural stability, low manufacturing cost and easy manufacturing process. Structural analysis including load cases, stress, deformation, buckling, vibration and fatigue life was performed using the Finite Element Method, the load spectrum analysis and Miner rule. In order to evaluate the designed structure, the structural test was carried out and its test results were compared with the estimated results. Moreover Investigation on structural safety of tower was verified through structural analysis by FEM.

풍력 터빈회전날개의 설계시 구조적 형상을 결정하는 예비설계 단계에서 종전에는 여러 가지 다양한 경우의 설계를 수행하여 이중 적합한 경우를 채택하는 시행착오 방법은 많은 설계시간을 요하였으나, 본 연구에서는 이 같은 설계시의 비효율적 요소를 배제하고자 적층판 이론을 기초로 한 설계 프로그램을 이용하는 설계기법을 계발함으로서 설계절차를 개선하였다. 개선된 설계절차에 따라 국제표준 설계규격 IEC1400-1에서 규정한 각 경우의 하중해석과 응력, 변형율 및 변형한계를 설정한 후, 단순화한 복합재 회전날개 구조에 혼합법칙과 주 응력 설계기법을 이용하여 복합재 구조의 형상을 정하였다. 설계된 구조는 본 연구를 통해 개발된 적층판 이론을 기초로 한 프로그램을 이용하여 강도 및 좌굴에 대한 구조의 안정성을 확인하여 상세설계 과정시 소요되는 시간을 최소화하였다. 설계된 구조는 표피 등을 고려하여 수정 설계한 후 유한요소법을 이용하여 응력, 변형율, 변위, 고유 진동수, 좌굴안정성, 피로수명 등을 해석하여 국제 표준규격의 만족 여부를 확인하였다.

철골 중심 가새골조는 최소의 물량으로 건물의 횡력에 대한 저항력을 확보할 수 있는 매우 효과적인 시스템이다. 그러나 중심가새 골조는 탄성거동을 전제로 풍하중에 대한 구조시스템으로 비탄성거동을 수반하는 지진하중에 대해서는 가새 좌굴 이후의 에너지 소산능력저하와 반복하중 하에 가새 및 접합부의 취성파단 가능성이 제기된다. 그로 인해 가새의 좌굴이 최초로 발생한 층에 소성변형이 집중되어 연약층 발생에 의한 건물의 붕괴로 이어질 가능성이 높다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기 설치된 H형 가새를 무용접 냉간성형보강재로 보강하여 휨-좌굴을 억제하고 인장력과 압축력에 동일한 강도를 확보하는 보강안에 대한 연구를 진행하였다.

In this paper, a refined shear deformation plate theory which eliminates the use of a shear correction factor was presented for FG sandwich plates composed of FG face sheets and an isotropic homogeneous core. The theory accounts for parabolic distribution of the transverse shear strains and satisfies the zero traction boundary conditions on the surfaces of the plate. The mechanical properties of the plate are assumed to vary continuously in the thickness direction by a simple power-law distribution in terms of the volume fractions of the constituents. Based on the present refined shear deformation plate theory, the governing equations of equilibrium are derived from the principle of virtual displacements. Numerical illustrations concern buckling behavior of FG sandwiches plates with Metal-Ceramic composition. Parametric studies are performed for varying ceramic volume fraction, volume fraction profiles, Boundary condition, and length to thickness ratios. The accuracy of the present solutions is verified by comparing the obtained results with the existing solutions.

Composite laminates are used in a wide range of applications including defense, automotive, aviation and aerospace, marine, wind energy, and recreational sporting goods. These composite beams still exhibit problems such as buckling, local deformations, and interlaminar delamination. To overcome these drawbacks, a novel viscoelastic autoclave bonding with tapered epoxy reinforcement polyurethane films is proposed. In existing laminates, compression face wrinkling and interlaminar delamination is caused in the sandwich beam. The unique viscoelastic autoclave spunbond interlayer bonding is designed to prevent face wrinkling and absorb and distribute stresses induced by external loads, thereby eliminating interlaminar delamination in the sandwich beam. Also, the existing special reinforcement causes stress concentrations, and the core is not effectively connected, which directly affects the stiffness of the beam. To address this, a novel tapered epoxy polyurethane reinforcement adhesive film is proposed, whose reinforcement thickness gradually tapers as it enters the core material. This minimizes stress concentrations at the interface, preventing excessive adhesive squeeze-out during the bonding process, and improves the stiffness of the beam. Results indicate the proposed model avoids the formation of micro cracks, interlaminar delamination, buckling, and local deformations, and effectively improves the stiffness of the beam.

Evaluation of the structural analysis for a 70/15 ton${\times}$105 m LLC (Level Luffing Crane) was conducted with an FEM Tool. Due to a discordance of the modeling and element type, the LLC was progressively analyzed after dividing it into the boom, main structure and rocker. All loads such as slewing, traveling and wind load, etc., that are indicated in the reference standards, were inputted as various severe conditions of the LLC. The deformation, equivalent stress(Von Mises stress), buckling characteristics were evaluated for the LLC structures. The stress concentrated areas over the allowable stress were identified, and reinforcement work was performed with a stiffener.

With the improvement of the quality of construction materials and the development of construction technologies, large-scale long-span steel frame buildings have been built recently. The P.E.B system using tapered members is being employed as an economically-efficient long-span structure owing to its advantage of being able to distribute stress appropriately depending on the size of sectional areas of members. However, in December 2005 and in February 2014, P.E.B buildings collapsed due to sudden loads such as snow loads and wind gusts. In this study, the design and construction of the P.E.B system in Korea were analyzed and its structural safety was evaluated using the finite element analysis program to suggest how to improve the P.E.B system in order to promote the efficient and rational application of the system.

In this research work, nonlinear thermal buckling behavior of functionally graded (FG) plates is explored based a new higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). The present model has just four unknowns, by using a new supposition of the displacement field which enforces undetermined integral variables. A shear correction factor is, thus, not necessary. A power law distribution is employed to express the disparity of volume fraction of material distributions. Three kinds of thermal loading, namely, uniform, linear, and nonlinear and temperature rises over z-axis direction are examined. The non-linear governing equations are resolved for plates subjected to simply supported boundary conditions at the edges. The results are approved with those existing in the literature. Impacts of various parameters such as aspect and thickness ratios, gradient index, type of thermal load rising, on the non-dimensional thermal buckling load are all examined.

In this study, a method using single Wheatstone bridge flexure has been presented to measure hinge moment acting on control surfaces of wind tunnel models. The structural simplicity of the flexure reduces difficulty regarding gauging and wire-routing, and also makes it feasible to install flexures even inside thin wings. Some flexures were designed and fabricated under typical aerodynamic loads in wind tunnel test, and the strains on the flexure according to applied loads were compared with the result of the analysis by finite element method. The relation between applied loads and output signals showed good linearity, and the standard deviation on the residual errors from linear equation obtained by least square method was within 1.0 % of the maximum design moments. In addition, the FEM analysis on the thickness of load-connecting part of the flexure showed that the sensitivity was improved as the thickness became thin as much as desired to avoid buckling.
