Dynamic characteristics of tall building structures with double negative stiffness damped outriggers (2NSDO) are parametrically studied using the theoretical formula. Compared with one negative stiffness damped outrigger (1NSDO), 2NSDO can achieve a similar maximal modal damping ratio with a smaller negative stiffness ratio. Besides, the 2NSDO can improve the maximum achievable damping ratio to about 30% with less consumption of an outrigger damping coefficient compared with the double conventional damped outriggers (2CDO). Besides, the responses of structures with 2NSDO under fluctuating wind load are investigated by time-history analysis. Numerical results show that the 2NSDO is effective in reducing structural acceleration under fluctuating wind load, being more efficient than 1NSDO.

풍향풍속계와 구조 모니터링 시스템을 설치하여 강풍과 거물의 동적 특성을 계측하였다. 계측건물은 속초의 산기슭에 위치하고 있다. 감쇠율과 고유진동수의 진폭 의존성을 분석하였다. 감쇠율의 진폭의존성은 9%로서, 가속도진폭이 증가함에 따라서 감쇠율이 명료하게 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 계측데이터에서 얻은 동적 특성의 경향은 사용성 평가시 건물의 동적 특성을 평가하는데 유용하게 사용되리라 기대된다.

This study shows what difference would be made to the aerodynamic characteristic with different thickness ratio of the same airfoil, Eppler 387, at low Reynolds number, at the angle of attack of $0^{\circ}$. Konkuk Univ.'s airfoil has a bigger thickness ratio than that of the original Eppler 387 airfoil. The reason for the thicker camber is a Pt 100 ohm heater mounted inside the Konkuk Univ.'s airfoil and this was assumed to make some differences to aerodynamic characteristic. The comparison of these two airfoils' CFD data, provided by EDSION_CFD, with real experiment that had been made in subsonic wind tunnel at Konkuk Univ. is done. A finer result would come out if the complement of the homogeneity of the wind tunnel's fluid is done in the future.

해양 영역에 대한 SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) 자료는 좋은 해상도로 기상조건이나 주야에 상관없이 wind vector를 구할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 해안지역의 scatterometer 자료는 육지의 영향으로 인하여 정확한 자료를 얻을 수 없지만, SAR자료를 이용하면, Scatterometer에 비해 좋은 해상도로 해안지역의 wind vector 추출이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 SAR 자료로부터 풍속을 추출할 수 있는 CMOD_4와 CMOD_IFR2 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 이 알고리즘들은 정확한 sigma-naught 값과, 풍향, 그리고 local incidence angle을 입력변수로 요구한다. CMOD 알고리즘들은 ERS-1/2와 같이 C-band, VV-polarization을 위해 개발된 알고리즘이므로, C-band, HH-polarization을 가진 RADARSAT 자료에 바로 적용할 수가 없다. 이것을 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 두 CMOD 알고리즘을 몇 가지 polarization ratio와 같이 적용하여 보았다. 각 연구지역에 해당하는 자료에는 제주도 주변의 Fine mode 자료, 서해안과 제주도 근해의 Standard mode 자료, 그리고 동해안 지역의 ScanSAR 자료 등이다. 여러 가지 Polarization ratio와 CMOD 알고리즘의 조합, 그리고 2-DFFT로부터 추출된 풍향으로부터 각 연구지역의 풍속은 가까운 기상관측소 및, 부이의 관측값과 비교하였다. 그 결과 Fine mode 자료로부터 추출된 풍속은 실제 관측 값보다 항상 상당히 높게 나타났지만, Standard mode 나 ScanSAR 자료로부터 추출된 풍속은 현지 기상관측소 관측 값과 잘 일치한다.

Passive control of the flutter condition of suspension bridges using a combined vertical and torsional tuned mass damper (TMD) system is presented. The proposed TMD system has two degrees of freedom, which are tuned close to the frequencies corresponding to vertical and torsional symmetric modes of the bridge which get coupled during flutter. The bridge-TMD system is analyzed for finding critical wind speed for flutter using a finite element approach. Thomas Suspension Bridge is analyzed as an illustrative example. The effectiveness of the TMD system in increasing the critical flutter speed of the bridge is investigated through a parametric study. The results of the parametric study led to the optimization of some important parameters such as mass ratio, TMD damping ratio, tuning frequency, and number of TMD systems which provide maximum critical flutter wind speed of the suspension bridge.

Offshore wind farms are rapidly growing owing to their comparatively more stable wind conditions than onshore and land-based wind farms. The power capacity of offshore wind turbines has been increased to 5MW in order to capture a larger amount of wind energy, which results in an increase of each component's size. Furthermore, the weight of the marine turbine components installed in the nacelle directly influences the total mechanical design, as well as the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. A reduction in the weight of the nacelle allows for cost-effective tower and foundation structures. On the other hand, longer transmission distances from an offshore wind turbine to the load leads to higher energy losses. In this regard, DC transmission is more useful than AC transmission in terms of efficiency because no reactive power is generated/consumed by DC transmission cables. This paper describes some of the challenges and difficulties faced in designing high-power-density power conversion systems (HPDPCSs) for offshore wind turbines. A new approach for high gain/high voltage systems is introduced using transformerless power conversion technologies. Finally, the proposed converter is evaluated in terms of step-up conversion ratio, device number, modulation, and costs.

Vortex-induced vibration and instability vibration of tall buildings are very important fluid-structure interaction phenomenon, and many fundamental questions concerning the influence of body movement on the unsteady aerodynamic force remain unanswered. For tall buildings, there are two experimental methods to investigate the characteristics of unsteady aerodynamic forces, one is forced vibration method and the other is free vibration method. In the present paper, a free vibration method was used to investigate the unsteady aerodynamic force on tall building whose aspect ratio is 9 under boundary layer simulating city area. Wind pressures on surfaces and tip displacements were measured simultaneously, and the characteristics of tip displacements and generalized forces were discussed. It was found that variation of across-wind displacements showed different trend between the case when wind speed increases and wind speed decreases, and the fluctuating generalize forces in across-wind direction of vibrating model are larger than that of static model near the resonant wind speed and approach to the static value. And for higher wind speed range, there were two peaks in across-wind power spectra of generalize forces of vibrating model, which means that two frequency components are predominant in unsteady aerodynamic forces.

This paper presents a variable speed wind generation system where fuzzy logic controllers is used as efficiency optimizer. The fuzzy logic controller increments the machine flux by on-line search to improve the generator efficiency in case of light load. The speed of the induction generator is controlled according to the variation of the wind speed in order to produce the maximum output power The generator reference speed is adjusted according to the optimum tip-speed ratio. The complete control system has been developed by simulation study.

풍력 발전단지의 효율성 평가를 위하여 풍력-기상자원지도로부터 이론적 잠재량을 계산하고 행원 발전단지 발전량과 비교하였다. 풍력-기상자원지도는 기상청 국립기상연구소에서 개발된 1 km 해상도 자료를 이용하였다. 풍력-기상자원지도와 AWS(구좌) 풍속의 비교 검증 결과는 풍속이 과대 모의되었으며, 행원 발전단지 풍속의 일 변동성은 해륙풍의 영향으로 오후에 최대가 되는 일 변동 특성을 보였다. 풍력-기상자원지도로부터 산출된 발전량과 행원 발전단지 발전량의 비율은 24.8%이나, 발전량 빈도수 분포 형태는 유사하였다. 발전량 차이의 원인은 터빈의 기계적 오류, 풍력-기상자원지도 풍속의 과대 모의에 기인한 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구는 향후의 발전단지 효율성 증가를 위한 터빈의 재배치에 기여 할 것이다.

Solar towers, which often has a large aspect ratio and low fundamental natural frequency, were extremely prone to large amplitude of wind-induced vibrations, especially Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV). A tiny Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) with conveniently adjustable eddy current damping was specially designed and manufactured for elastic wind tunnel tests of a solar tower. A series of numerical simulations by using the COMSOL software were conducted to determine three key parameters, including the thickness of the back iron plate and the conductive plate (T_b and T_c), the distance between the magnet and the conductive plate (T_d). Based on the results of numerical simulations, a tiny TMD was manufactured and its structural parameters were experimentally identified. The optimized values of the tiny TMD can be conveniently realized. The tiny TMD was installed at the top of the elastic test model of a 243-meter-high solar tower, and a series of wind tunnel tests were carried out to examine the effectiveness of the TMD in suppressing wind-induced responses of the test model. The results showed that the wind-induced responses could be obviously reduced by the TMD, especially in the cross-wind direction. The cross-wind RMS and peak responses at the critical wind velocity can be reduced by about 86% and 75%, respectively. However, the maximum reduction of the responses at the design wind velocity is about 45%, obviously less than that at the critical wind velocity.
