The present study aims to investigate the dynamic properties of a novel isolation system composed of separate rubber and wire isolators. The testing program comprised pure compressive, pure-shear, compressive-stress dependence, and shear-strain dependence tests that used full-scale test specimens according to ISO 22762-1. A total of 22 test specimens were fabricated and investigated. Among the tests, the pure compressive test was a destructive test that reached up to the failure stage, whereas the others were nondestructive tests before the failure stage. Similar to the pure-shear test, at each compressive-stress level in the compressive dependence test or at each shear-strain level in the shear-strain dependence test, the cyclic loading was conducted for three cycles. In the nondestructive tests, examination of the dynamic shear properties in the X-direction was independent of the Y-direction. The test results revealed that the increase in the shear strain increased the energy dissipation but decreased the damping ratio, whereas the increase in the compressive stress increased the damping ratio. In addition, a macro model was developed to simulate the load-displacement response of the isolation systems, and the prediction results were consistent with the experimental results.

The scope of this study is the comparison between experimental results of tests performed on a base isolated building using helical wire rope isolators (WRs), and results of Nonlinear Response History Analyses (NRHAs) performed using SAP 2000, a commercial software for structural analysis. In the first stage of this research, WRs have been tested under shear deformation beyond their linear range of deformation, and analytical models have been derived to describe the nonlinear response of the bearings under different directions of loading. On the following stage, shaking table tests have been carried out on a 1/3 scale steel model isolated at the base by means of curved surface sliders (CSS) and WRs. The response of the structure under ground motion excitation has been compared to that obtained using numerical analyses in SAP 2000. The feasibility of modelling the nonlinear behavior of the tested isolation layer using multilinear link elements embedded in SAP 2000 is discussed in this paper, together with the advantages of using WRs as supplemental devices for CSSs base isolated structures.

We report on the design and experimental results of a large diameter faraday rotator for the high-power laser system(KLF: Kaeri laser facility) that was completed in late 2007s at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute. The design involves modelling the magnetic field of cylindrical coil with large diameter(110 mm). Magnetic field generation coil is designed by 6 layers using a rectangular wire with cross-sectional area $3{\times}5[mm^2]$. We obtain an isolation ratio for optical feedback of 35 dB at 1064 nm and magnetic field strengths ${\sim}25kG$. We expect that the design can be widely used optical isolators in high-power laser system.

Antenna equipment is transported being assembled to moving equipment and often subjected to vibration and shock excitation during transportation. In these circumstances, structural safety of antenna equipment must be secured. Wire rope isolators are assembled between moving equipment and antenna equipment to reduce the level of vibration and shock. In this paper, a isolator that are suitable to the system is selected and dynamic characteristics analysis of driving on antenna equipment is conducted using real system and the result is compared with response analysis. Also modal test of array-antenna pack-assembly is conducted and structural safety of that is secured by reinforcing its structure.

Launch vehicles and satellites experience severe vibration and pyroshock during the flight phase. These severe dynamic loading could result in the malfunction of electric devices which equipped in the launch vehicle and satellite. In this paper, mesh washer isolators are applied to attenuate these severe shock and vibration and isolation performances are enhanced by applying pseudoelasitic SMA wire material. Through random vibration and ground pyroshock tests, outstanding isolation performances are studied. Especially, comparison of isolation performances due to the change of pre-compressive displacement of mesh washer itself are suggested and applicablity to the adaptive vibration control are confirmed.

Passive-type control devices such as resilient mounts and wire rope isolators are generally used for protecting the shipboard equipment from shock loading and for suppressing the mechanical vibration of the equipment in naval ships. To improve the performance of the control device, a new hybrid mount is under development in this study. This mount consists of a passive-type rubber element and an active-type piezo-stack element. It can be expected that the mount has enhanced performance of about 20 dB or more with respect to transmissibility through a series of performance tests of prototype mount.

본 연구에서는 실규모의 2층 철골 구조물에 7종의 건축 및 비건축 비구조요소를 설치하여 진동대 실험을 수행하였다. 진동대 실험은 현행 비내진상세와 면진장치를 적용한 실험으로 두 차례 수행되었으며 본 연구에서는 무정전전원장치(UPS)의 내진성능에 대하여 실험 및 분석하였다. 비내진정착상세로는 UPS 하단에 ㄷ형강 다리부가 설치되었고, 면진장치로는 고감쇠고무와 와이어로프로 구성된 개발 복합면진장치가 사용되었다. 지진하중모사를 위하여 ICC-ES AC156 (2010)에 따라 인공지진파를 생성 후, 동일 지진파의 크기를 점증하여 가진하였다. 진동대실험을 통해 복합면진장치의 적용여부에 따른 UPS의 거동 및 동적 특성(응답가속도, 응답변위, 동증폭계수, 고유진동수, 감쇠비)을 비교 및 분석하였다. 실험결과, 복합면진장치를 적용함에 따라 UPS의 고유진동수가 감소하여 응답가속도 및 증폭계수가 크게 감소하는 것으로 확인되었다.
