  • 자전거는 균형을 유지하며 빠른 속도로 주행하는 과정에서 여러 형태의 상당한 운동 에너지가 내재되어 있어, 에너지 수확기술을 적용하는데 있어 큰 장점을 갖는 이동형 플랫폼이다. 자전거에 에너지 수확 기술을 적용해 높은 출력을 얻기 위해서는 주행 중인 자전거의 운동 특성을 면밀히 관찰하고 이해하는 것이 필요하지만 실제 도로를 주행하는 자전거의 움직임을 정밀하게 측정한 연구나 이를 위한 전용의 측정 장치는 거의 없는 실정이다. 본 연구는 MEMS 기반의 가속도 센서를 이용하여 주행 중인 자전거의 동적 상태를 측정하고 이를 토대로 자전거 주행에 동반되는 에너지의 특성을 분석함으로써 이에 적합한 에너지 수확 증진 기술을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 일반 자전거를 이용한 도로 주행 실험에서 주행 속도와 무관한 주파수 특성을 갖는 평균 1g 전후의 잉여 진동 에너지가 수반됨을 확인하였으며, 임의진동 에너지의 효과적인 수확을 위해 비선형 특성을 갖는 자기부상형 전자기 유도 방식의 에너지 수확기 프로토타입을 개발하였다. 개발된 에너지 수확기를 자전거에 장착하여, 휴대용 센서 및 근거리 무선 통신 모듈의 구동이 가능한 평균 1.5 mW 의 전력 생산을 검증하였다. 현재 자전거 차체의 진동분리 및 변환 효율 향상을 위한 연구가 진행 중이며, 향후 증진된 출력을 바탕으로 각종 스마트 정보 기기의 지속적인 전력공급을 위한 기반 기술이 될 것으로 기대한다.

  • The updated finite element model of K$\ddot{o}$m$\ddot{u}$rhan Highway Bridge on the Firat River located on the $51^{st}$ km of Elazi$\breve{g}$-Malatya highway is obtained by using analytical and experimental results. The 2D and 3D finite element model of the bridge is created by using SAP2000 structural analyses software, and the dynamic characteristics of the bridge are determined analytically. The experimental measurements are carried out by Operational Modal Analysis Method under traffic induced vibrations and the dynamic characteristics are obtained experimentally. The vibration data are gathered from the both box girder and the deck of the bridge, separately. Due to the expansion joint in the middle of the bridge, special measurement points are selected when experimental test setups constitute. Measurement duration, frequency span and effective mode number are determined by considering similar studies in literature. The Peak Picking method in the frequency domain is used in the modal identification. At the end of the study, analytical and experimental dynamic characteristic are compared with each other and the finite element model of the bridge is updated by changing some uncertain parameters such as material properties and boundary conditions. Maximum differences between the natural frequencies are reduced from 10% to 2%, and a good agreement is found between natural frequencies and mode shapes after model updating.

  • This paper presents structural assessment of a steel railway bridge for current condition using modal parameter to upgrade finite element modeling in order to gather accurate result. An adequate monitoring, such as acceleration, displacement, strain monitoring, is important tool to understand behavior and to assess structural performance of the structure under surround vibration by means of the dynamic analysis. Evaluation of conditions of an existing steel railway bridge consist of 4 decks, three of them are 14 m, one of them is 9.7 m, was performed with a numerical analysis and a series of dynamic tests. Numerical analysis was performed implementing finite element model of the bridge using SAP2000 software. Dynamic tests were performed by collecting acceleration data caused by surrounding vibrations and dynamic analysis is performed by Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) using collected acceleration data. The acceleration response of the steel bridge is assumed to be governing response quantity for structural assessment and provide valuable information about the current statute of the structure. Modal identification determined based on response of the structure play significant role for upgrading finite element model of the structure and helping structural evaluation. Numerical and experimental dynamic properties are compared and finite element model of the bridge is updated by changing of material properties to reduce the differences between the results. In this paper, an existing steel railway bridge with four spans is evaluated by finite element model improved using operational modal analysis. Structural analysis performed for the bridge both for original and calibrated models, and results are compared. It is demonstrated that differences in natural frequencies are reduced between 0.2% to 5% by calibrating finite element modeling and stiffness properties.

  • In recent decades there has been a trend towards improved mechanical characteristics of materials used in footbridge construction. It has enabled engineers to design lighter, slender and more aesthetic structures. As a result of these construction trends, many footbridges have become more susceptible to vibrations when subjected to dynamic loads. In addition to this, some inherit modelling uncertainties related to a lack of information on the as-built structure, such as boundary conditions, material properties, and the effects of non-structural elements make difficult to evaluate modal properties of footbridges, analytically. For these purposes, modal testing of footbridges is used to rectify these problems after construction. This paper describes an arch type steel footbridge, its analytical modelling, modal testing and finite element model calibration. A modern steel footbridge which has arch type structural system and located on the Karadeniz coast road in Trabzon, Turkey is selected as an application. An analytical modal analysis is performed on the developed 3D finite element model of footbridge to provide the analytical frequencies and mode shapes. The field ambient vibration tests on the footbridge deck under natural excitation such as human walking and traffic loads are conducted. The output-only modal parameter identification is carried out by using the peak picking of the average normalized power spectral densities in the frequency domain and stochastic subspace identification in the time domain, and dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies mode shapes and damping ratios are determined. The finite element model of footbridge is calibrated to minimize the differences between analytically and experimentally estimated modal properties by changing some uncertain modelling parameters such as material properties. At the end of the study, maximum differences in the natural frequencies are reduced from 22% to only %5 and good agreement is found between analytical and experimental dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies, mode shapes by model calibration.

  • 본 논문은 AESA 레이다를 탑재한 항공기가 비행 중 발생하는 바람과 진동에 의해 받는 영향을 평가하기 위한 시뮬레이터를 소개한다. AESA 레이다는 항공기의 노즈콘(nose cone)에 탑재하며, 비행 시 공기의 저항력에 의한 진동이 발생한다. 이 진동은 AESA 레이다의 거동에 영향을 주며, 수신한 신호의 위상 오차를 야기할 수 있다. 시뮬레이터는 레이다의 위치와 자세를 정확하게 모의하기 위해 강체 동역학, 평균 바람/난류, 그리고 모드/환경 진동에 대한 수학적 모델과 노즈콘에 대한 기하모델을 고려한다. 일련의 테스트 시나리오에 기반한 연구가 개발된 시뮬레이터의 효율성을 입증하기 위해 수행되었다.

  • This study presents the findings of the structural health monitoring and the real time system identification of one of the first large scale building instrumentations in Turkey for earthquake safety. Within this context, a thorough review of steps in the instrumentation, monitoring is presented and seismic performance evaluation of structures using both nonlinear pushover and nonlinear dynamic time history analysis is carried out. The sensor locations are determined using the optimal sensor placement techniques used in NASA for on orbit modal identification of large space structures. System identification is carried out via the stochastic subspace technique. The results of the study show that under ambient vibrations, stocky buildings can be substantially stiffer than what is predicted by the finite element models due to the presence of a large number of partitioning walls. However, in a severe earthquake, it will not be safe to rely on this resistance due to the fact that once the partitioning walls crack, the bare frame contributes to the lateral stiffness of the building alone. Consequently, the periods obtained from system identification will be closer to those obtained from the FE analysis. A technique to control the validity of the proportional damping assumption is employed that checks the presence of phase difference in displacements of different stories obtained from band pass filtered records and it is confirmed that the "proportional damping assumption" is valid for this structure. Two different techniques are implemented for identifying the influence of the soil structure interaction. The first technique uses the transfer function between the roof and the basement in both directions. The second technique uses a pre-whitening filter on the data obtained from both the basement and the roof. Subsequently the impulse response function is computed from the scaled cross correlation between the input and the output. The overall results showed that the structure will satisfy the life safety performance level in a future earthquake but some soil structure interaction effects should be expected in the North South direction.

  • 수동 표면파 탐사는 인공 송신원 없이 생활잡음 또는 자연 발생 소음 등을 송신원으로 이용해 탄성파 신호를 측정한다. 수동 송신원은 낮은 진동수 대역에서 발생하기 때문에 수동 표면파 탐사는 일반적인 능동 탐사법 보다 더 깊은 심도의 지질 정보를 확보할 수 있어 심부 부지 평가 분야에 많이 활용되고 있다. 수동 표면파 탐사 자료는 능동 표면파 탐사 자료 해석과 마찬가지로 자료 획득 후 진동수 분산곡선을 구하여 1차원으로 가정한 속도구조를 해석한다. 하지만 수동 표면파 탐사 자료는 송신원이 무작위로 발생한다는 특성 때문에 여러 수신기에서 측정된 신호들의 공간자기상관을(spatial autocorrelation) 이용해 수신 자료들의 일관성(coherence) 곡선을 구하고 이로부터 분산곡선을 구하게 된다. 이 기술보고에서는 수동 표면파 탐사 이론, 탐사 방법, 자료처리 기법을 살펴보고 실제 적용 사례를 분석한다.
