Flexible structures may experience excessive levels of vibration under the action of wind, adversely affecting serviceability and occupant comfort. To ensure the functional performance of a structure, various design modifications are possible, ranging from alternative structural systems to the utilization of passive and active control devices. This paper presents an overview of state-of-the-art measures that reduce the structural response of buildings, including a summary of recent work in aerodynamic tailoring and a discussion of auxiliary damping devices for mitigating the wind-induced motion of structures. In addition, some discussion of the application of such devices to improve structural resistance to seismic events is also presented, concluding with detailed examples of the application of auxiliary damping devices in Australia, Canada, China, Japan, and the United States.

Turbo-fans for a FFU unit should be aerodynamically designed to provide the FFU system with the given flow-rate at the lowest rotational-speed by considering the interaction effect with the FFU casing. In this study, slim and highly efficient turbo-fans are designed to satisfy the given performance at the specific speed by using the hybrid-stacking method of an inducer and a 2D-bladed turbo fan. The mean-line analysis, cascade theory, and CFD technique are all together applied to control the passage areas on the meridional plane from the inlet to the exit of the blade. Furthermore, the torque control algorithm is adopted to improve the performances within the constraints by the motor rpm-torque characteristics, and the resulting measured performances of mock-up fans are discussed.

The primary challenge in improving fuel efficiency and reducing air pollution for commercial vehicles is reducing their aerodynamic drag. Various flow control devices, such as cab-roof fairing, gap fairing, cab extender, and side skirt have been introduced to reduce drag, however, the drag reduction effect and applicability are different depending on each commercial vehicle model. To evaluate the fuel consumption of heavy vehicles, a comprehensive research approach, including drag force measurement, flow field analysis is required. This study investigated the effect of a cab extender, which installed rear region of cab, on a drag coefficient of commercial vehicle through wind tunnel experiments and CFD. The results showed that the cab extender significantly modified the flow structure around the vehicle, leading to 8.2% reduction in drag coefficient compared to the original vehicle model. These results would provide practical application for enhancing the aerodynamic performance and fuel efficiency of heavy vehicle.

측방제트는 조종면에 비해 즉각적인 유도무기 기동이 가능하지만 자유류를 간섭하여 공력계수에 영향을 줄 수 있다. 공력계수에 대한 측방제트의 영향을 파악하기 위해 측방제트를 공기로 모사한 후 측방제트 유무에 따른 공력계수 차이를 다충실도 모형을 사용하여 살펴본다. 측방제트 유무에 따라 공력계수 예측 모형으로 추정된 공력계수 간 차이를 계산하여 측방제트의 영향을 마하수, 뱅크각, 받음각의 변화에 따라 조사한다. 분석 결과, 종방향 힘 및 모멘트 계수는 비대칭적으로 발달한 측방제트에 큰 영향을 받았으며, 횡방향 힘 및 모멘트 계수는 -30°와 +30° 사이 뱅크각에서 최대로 변동하였다. 이에 반해 축방향 힘 계수는 측방제트에 영향을 받지 않았으며, 축방향 모멘트 계수는 마하수 변화에 대한 표본 부족으로 측방제트의 영향을 판단하기 어려웠다. 종합하면 측방제트가 종방향 및 횡방향 공력계수에 주요한 영향을 주어 유도무기 자세 변화를 일으킨다는 것을 확인하였다.

외부형 핀틀추력기의 핀틀 행정거리, 고도, 보어유무가 핀틀추력기 성능에 미치는 영향에 대해서 전산수치해석을 수행하였다. 유동은 핀틀 행정거리에 관계없이 항상 과소팽창하는 결과를 보였다. 핀틀추력기의 주요 성능 지표 중 추력조절측면에서는 우수한 성능을 보였지만, 핀틀 지지대 윗면에서 발생한 충격파로 인해 공력하중이 증가하였다. 지상에서 고도 20 km로 상승하면 노즐 출구 속도, 마하수, 추력 등이 증가하였으며, 공력하중 또한 증가하였다. 보어의 존재는 공력하중을 5.9% 증가시켜 핀틀의 구동력을 위해서는 보어가 없는 형상이 유리하다고 판단된다.

Aeroelastic analysis of an aircraft with a high aspect ratio wing for medium altitude and long endurance capability was attempted in this paper. In order to achieve such an objective, various structural models were adopted. The traditional approach has been based on a one-dimensional Euler-Bernoulli beam model. The structural analysis results of the present beam model were compared with those by the three-dimensional NASTRAN finite element model. In it, a taper ratio of 0.5 was applied; it was comprised of 21 ribs and 3 spars, and included two control surfaces. The relevant unsteady aerodynamic forces were obtained by using ZAERO, which is based on the doublet lattice method that considers flow compressibility. To obtain the unsteady aerodynamic force, the structural mode shapes and natural frequencies were transferred to ZAERO. Two types of unsteady aerodynamic forces were considered. The first was the unsteady aerodynamic forces which were based on the one-dimensional beam shape; the other was based on the three-dimensional FEM model shape. These two types of aerodynamic forces were compared, and applied to the foregoing flutter analysis. The ultimate goal of the present research is to analyze the possible interaction between the rigid-body degrees of freedom and the aeroelastic modes. This will be achieved after the development of a reliable nonlinear beam formulation that would validate the current results as well as enable a thorough investigation of the nonlinearity. Moreover, such analysis will allow for an examination of the above-mentioned interaction between the flight dynamics and aeroelastic modes with the inclusion of the rigid body degrees of freedom.

본 연구에서는 날갯짓 비행체 날개의 유체-구조 연계를 고려한 설계나 날갯짓 비행체의 비행 동역학 및 제어 시뮬레이션에 적용 가능한 효율적인 공력모델을 제안하고, 풍동 실험을 통해 공력모델의 특성을 검증하고자 한다. 날갯짓 비행체는 저 레이놀즈 수 영역의 비정상 유동장의 지배를 받기 때문에, 이 영역에서 날개 운동에 따른 공력을 효과적으로 측정할 수 있도록 풍동실험장치를 설계 및 개발하였다. 본 연구의 실험장치 특성상 힘을 측정하는 2축-로드셀은 비관성계에 있기 때문에, 순수한 날개의 공력을 측정하기 위해서는 관성력을 보정해주어야 하며, 이에 대한 방법론을 수립하였다. 최종적으로 유동속도, 날개의 운동 주파수 및 고정 받음각에 따라 날개에 작용하는 양력 및 항력의 평균값 및 평균 제곱근 값을 비교함으로서 실험결과와 공력모델의 특성을 비교 검증하였다.

Background and Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the perceptual and aerodynamic characteristics and the relation between vocal efficiency and the severity of strained voice. of adductor spasmodic dysphonia. Materials and Methods : 13 female patients with adductor spasmodic dysphonia were examined and compared with 10 normal female control group. MPT, MFR, Psub, Sound Intensity, VE(vocal efficiency) were obtained using PAS(Phonatory Aerodynamic System). GRBA(S) scale was used for Perceptual evaluation. Results : Psub(subglottic pressure) of SD was significantly higher than normal group. MPT, MFR, Sound Intensity, VE were not significantly different between two groups. Correlation between VE and 'S'(strained) was not significant. Conclusion : The results of this study show that certain aerodynamic parameters(Psub) distinguish adductor spasmodic dysphonia from normal voice.

노즐 목 내부형 핀틀추력기에서 핀틀 행정거리가 추력기 성능에 미치는 영향에 대해 전산수치해석 연구를 수행하였다. 해석결과 핀틀 행정거리가 증가함에 따라 추력조절비는 2% 이내였고, 공력하중비는 최대 22%로 확인되었다. 노즐 목을 지난 유동이 핀틀의 형상으로 인해 급격히 팽창하며 충격파가 발생하였다. 특히, 핀틀 행정거리 4, 5 mm에서는 충격파가 노즐 벽면에 부딪치며 박리거품이 발생하였다. 고도에 따라서는 추력은 증가하였고 공력하중은 감소하였지만, 그 차이가 1.5% 이내로 작았다. 보어가 있는 경우 핀틀 팁의 면적 감소로 공력하중이 감소하는 결과를 보였다.

This study examined the aerodynamic functions (mean airflow rate MFR, subglottal pressure Psub) and closed quotients (CQs) in the fixed pitch (C3, E3, G3, C4) with the variable loudness (70 and 80 dB) as well as in the fixed loudness at 70 dB and 80 dB with the variable pitch (C3, E3, G3, C4) in five classic male singers (Baritone). Results showed that MFR significantly increased at C3, E3, and G3 and Psub significantly increased at C4 when the loudness increased from 70 to 80 dB. At 70 dB, MFR and Psub significantly increased and CQ significantly decreased when the pitch increased from C3 to C4. At 80 dB, MFR significantly decreased when the pitch increased from C3 to G3. However, Psub showed the significant decrease with the pitch increased at 80 dB. In conclusion, as the loudness increases, the aerodynamic loss is getting higher and vocal efficiency becomes lower at low pitch than at higher pitch. At a low loudness level, the main mechanism to control loudness is the amount of medial compression of the vocal folds rather than the aerodynamic function. In addition, the aerodynamic function and medial compression of the vocal folds have a significant role in increasing the loudness level.
