In this study, shaking table test has been carried out for the dual frame passive control system for seismic performance verification of the proposed system. The proposed system was separated into two independent frameworks that are strength resistant core and frame structure by connecting to the damper. Moreover, the seismic performance improvement of the proposed system has been verified by comparing and analyzing the experimental results of the proposed system with an existing core system. As a result of the shaking table test, acceleration and displacement responses of dual-frame vibration control system are decreased than those of the existing strength resistant type core system. In the case of the core system, while the damage was concentrated on the column of first floor, the damage of the dual system was dispersed in each layer. The damage also was concentrated on the damper, almost no damage occurs to the structural members. It has been emphasized that installed dampers in the proposed dual system reduce the input energy of whole structure by absorbing seismic input energy, which leads overall system damage to be reduced.

Using confined shape memory alloy (SMA) bar or plate, this study proposes an innovative self-centering damper. The damper is essentially properly machined SMA core, i.e., bar or plate, that encased in buckling-restrained device. To prove the design concept, cyclic loading tests were carried out. According to the test results, the damper exhibited desired flag-shape hysteretic behaviors upon both tension and compression actions, although asymmetric behavior is noted. Based on the experimental data, the hysteretic parameters that interested by seismic applications, such as the strength, stiffness, equivalent damping ratio and recentering capacity, are quantified. Processed in the Matlab/Simulink environment, a preliminary evaluation of the seismic control effect for this damper was conducted. The proposed damper was placed at the first story of a multi-story frame and then the original and controlled structures were subjected to earthquake excitations. The numerical outcome indicated the damper is effective in controlling seismic deformation demands. Besides, a companion SMA damper which represents a popular type in previous studies is also introduced in the analysis to further reveal the seismic control characteristics of the newly proposed damper. In current case, it was found that although the current SMA damper shows asymmetric tension-compression behavior, it successfully contributes comparable seismic control effect as those having symmetrical cyclic behavior. Additionally, the proposed damper even shows better global performance in controlling acceleration demands. Thus, this paper reduces the concern of using SMA dampers with asymmetric cyclic behavior to a certain degree.

This paper demonstrates a real-time hybrid substructuring (RTHS) shake table test to evaluate the seismic performance of a base isolated building. Since RTHS involves a feedback loop in the test implementation, the frequency dependent magnitude and inherent time delay of the actuator dynamics can introduce inaccuracy and instability. The paper presents a robust stability and performance analysis method for the RTHS test. The robust stability method involves casting the actuator dynamics as a multiplicative uncertainty and applying the small gain theorem to derive the sufficient conditions for robust stability and performance. The attractive feature of this robust stability and performance analysis method is that it accommodates linearized modeled or measured frequency response functions for both the physical substructure and actuator dynamics. Significant experimental research has been conducted on base isolators and dampers toward developing high fidelity numerical models. Shake table testing, where the building superstructure is tested while the isolation layer is numerically modeled, can allow for a range of isolation strategies to be examined for a single shake table experiment. Further, recent concerns in base isolation for long period, long duration earthquakes necessitate adding damping at the isolation layer, which can allow higher frequency energy to be transmitted into the superstructure and can result in damage to structural and nonstructural components that can be difficult to numerically model and accurately predict. As such, physical testing of the superstructure while numerically modeling the isolation layer may be desired. The RTHS approach has been previously proposed for base isolated buildings, however, to date it has not been conducted on a base isolated structure isolated at the ground level and where the isolation layer itself is numerically simulated. This configuration provides multiple challenges in the RTHS stability associated with higher physical substructure frequencies and a low numerical to physical mass ratio. This paper demonstrates a base isolated RTHS test and the robust stability and performance analysis necessary to ensure the stability and accuracy. The tests consist of a scaled idealized 4-story superstructure building model placed directly onto a shake table and the isolation layer simulated in MATLAB/Simulink using a dSpace real-time controller.

마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물은 구조물의 고유주기, 하중의 특성, 그리고 외부하중에 대한 마찰력의 상대적인 크기에 따라 강한 비선형성을 나타내므로, 구조물의 최대응답을 예측하기 매우 어렵다. 기존의 연구에서는 비선형 시스템을 등가의 선형 시스템으로 치환하거나, 구조물의 비선형 시간이력해석을 통한 응답스펙트럼 분석에 의한 간단한 확률해석에 의해 수행되었다. 지진 하중은 불확실성과 불규칙성을 갖고 있기 때문에 확률적으로 정의된다면, 지진하중을 받는 마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물의 응답 역시 확률분포를 나타낼 것이다. 본 논문에서는 Kanai-Tajimi 필터를 이용해 생성된 인공지진하중에 대해 마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물의 비선형 시간이력 해석이 수행되었다. 그리고 정규분포 확률밀도 함수에 선형 회귀분석을 통해 얻어진 구조물의 주기와 마찰력의 크기에 의한 변수를 업데이트 시킨 마찰형 감쇠를 갖는 구조물의 변위 응답 확률밀도함수식이 제시된다.

During a hypothetical severe accident in a nuclear power plant (NPP), hydrogen is generated by the active reaction of fuel-cladding and steam in the reactor pressure vessel and released with steam into the containment. In order to mitigate hydrogen hazards possibly occurred in the NPP containment, hydrogen mitigation system (HMS) is usually adopted. The design of the next generation NPP (APR1400) designed in Korea specifies 26 passive autocatalytic recombiners and 10 igniters installed in the containment for the hydrogen mitigation. in this study, the analysis of the hydrogen and steam behavior during a total lose of feed water (TLOFW) accident in the APR1400 containment has been conducted by using the CFD code GASFLOW. During the accident, a huge amount of hot water, steam, and hydrogen is released in the in-containment refueling water storage tank (IRWST). The current design of the APR1400 includes flap-type dampers at the IRWST vents which are operated depending on the pressure difference between inside and outside of the IRWST. it was found that the flaps strongly affects the flow structure of the steam and hydrogen in the containment. The possibilities of a flame acceleration and transition from deflagration to detonation (DDT) were evaluated by using Sigma-Lambda criteria. Numerical results indicate the DDT possibility could be heavily reduced in the IRWST compartment when the flaps are installed.

바이패스 공조시스템은 냉각코일과 가열코일의 공기통과여부에 따라 크게 외기바이패스, 혼합공기 바이패스와 순환공기 바이패스 공조시스템으로 구분할 수 있다. 이 중에서 순환공기 바이패스 공조시스템은 다른 두 방식과 달리 공조되지 않은 외기가 시스템 내부로 직접 유입되지 않으므로 실내온습도 조절면에서 가장 효율적인 시스템이다. 먼저, 수치계산을 통하여 부하변동에 따른 순환공기 바이패스 공조시스템과 단일덕트 정풍량공조시스템의 실내온습도 구현능력을 비교, 평가하였다. 또한 제안 시스템의 성능분석을 위해 실물실험동을 건립하여 그 실험결과를 수치계산결과와 비교하였다. 실험을 통하여 실현열비가 0.7(현열부하만 변동)인 경우, 실내 최대현열부하에 대한 부분부하시의 실내 현열부하의 비(DSL; Design Sensible Load)가 70% 이내에서는 수치계산, simulator 실험 모두 실내상대습도는 ASHRAE STANDARD 62-1999에서 지정하는 60% 이하로 유지됨을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로, 바이패스 공조시스템은 실내의 온습도를 정해진 범위의 부하변동내에서는 바이패스 댐퍼의 조작만으로 쾌적한 상태로 유지시킬 수 있으며, 환기회수가 많은 장손의 경우, 순환공기 바이패스에 의해 양질의 실내공기질(IAQ; Indoor Air qualify)을 확보할 수 있다.

In this paper, collision analysis of the full rake for the Next Generation High-speed EMU is conducted using a 3D/1D hybrid model, which combines 3-dimensional (3D) front-end structure of finite element model and 1-dimensional (1D) multi-body dynamics model in order to analyze train collision with a standard 3D deformable obstacle. The crush forces, passengers' accelerations and energy absorptions of a full rake train can be easily obtained through a simulation of a 1D dynamics model composed of nonlinear springs, dampers and masses. Also the obtained simulation results are very similar to those of a 3D model if an overriding behavior does not occur during collision. The standard obstacle in TSI regulation has been changed from a rigid body to a deformable body, and therefore 3D collision simulations should be conducted because their simulation results depends on the front-end structure of a train. According to the obstacle collision analysis of this study, the obstacle collides with the driver's upper structure after overriding over the front-end module. The 3D/1D hybrid model is effective to evaluate a main energy-absorbing module that is frequently changed during design process and reduce the need time of the modeling and analysis when compared to a 3D full car body.

In a high-speed press, numerous moving links are interconnected and each link executes a constrained motion at high speed. As a consequence, high-level dynamic unbalance force and unbalance moment are transmitted to the main frame of the press, which results in unwanted vibration and significantly degrades manufacturing accuracy. Dynamic unbalance force and unbalance moment inevitably transmits high-level vibrational force to the foundation on which the press is installed. Minimizing the vibrational force transmitted to the foundation is critical for the protection of both the operators and the surrounding structures. The whole task should be carried out in two steps. The first step is to reduce dynamic unbalance based upon kinematic and dynamic analyses. The second step is to design and build an optimal vibration isolation system minimizing the vibrational force transmitted to the foundation. Firstly, the dynamic design method is presented to reduce dynamic unbalance force and moment. For this a 3D CAD software was utilized and a computer program was written to compute dynamic unbalance force and moment. Secondly, the design method for vibration isolation system is presented. The method for designing coil springs and viscous dampers are explained in detail.

본 논문은 여러 가지 주름댐퍼를 갖는 안전헬멧의 변형거동 및 변형율 에너지 특성을 유한요소법으로 해석하였다. 안전헬멧은 외부의 충격력을 차단하고, 충격에너지를 흡수하는 것으로 감쇠효과 기능을 갖고 있다. 주름댐퍼를 갖는 3가지의 헬멧모델은 헬멧의 정상부에 최대의 충격력을 가하였을 때 변위량과 변형율 에너지 특성치를 상호간에 비교하였다. 계산한 FEM 해석결과에 의하면, 외부로 돌출한 주름댐퍼는 헬멧의 감쇠효과를 증가시키는 기여도가 높다는 것이다. 본 연구에서 둥근형상의 주름댐퍼는 전달되는 충격에너지를 효과적으로 흡수할 것이라는 사실이다. 따라서 안전헬멧의 하단부에 둥글고 기다랗게 주름댐퍼를 설치한 헬멧을 새로운 설계인자로 고려할 것을 추천한다.

Since the most exclusive machines of the modern industries which require the nano precision rates are evolved from the machine tools, the design of the stable machine tool structure is very critical. Exclusive machines for the modern industries such as semiconductor, solar cell and LED have surface machining processes which are similar to the face cutting and grinding of conventional machine tools. This study was initiated to stabilize a milling machine structure and further to help design those exclusive machines which have similar machining mechanisms. The vibrations inherent to the machine tool structures hurt the precision machining as well as damage the longevity of the structures. There have been numerous researches in order to suppress the vibrations of machine tool structures using the extra modules such as actuators and dampers. In this paper, the dynamic properties are analyzed to obtain the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a machine tool structure which reflect the main reasons of the biggest vibrations under the given operating conditions. And the feasibility of improving the stability of the structure without using any additional apparatus has been investigated with minor design changes. The result of the study shows that simple changes based on proper system identification can considerably improve the stability of the machine tool structure.
