This paper reports the result of an investigation into wave propagation in orthotropic laminated piezoelectric cylindrical shells in hydrothermal environment. A dynamic model of laminated piezoelectric cylindrical shell is derived based on Cooper-Naghdi shell theory considering the effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia. The wave characteristics curves are obtained by solving an eigenvalue problem. The effects of layer numbers, thickness of piezoelectric layers, thermal loads and humid loads on the wave characteristics curves are discussed through numerical results. The solving method presented in the paper is validated by the solution of a classical elastic shell non-containing the effects of transverse shear and rotary inertia. The new features of the wave propagation in laminated piezoelectric cylindrical shells with various laminated material, layer numbers and thickness in hydrothermal environment and some meaningful and interesting results in this paper are helpful for the application and the design of the ultrasonic inspection techniques and structural health monitoring.

The stochastic finite element method is employed to obtain a stochastic dynamic model of angled beams subjected to impact loads when uncertain material properties are described by random fields. Using the perturbation technique in conjunction with a precise time integration method, a random analysis approach is developed for efficient analysis of random elastic waves. Formulas for the mean, variance and covariance of displacement, strain and stress are introduced. Statistics of displacement and stress waves is analyzed and effects of bend angle and material stochasticity on wave propagation are studied. It is found that the elastic wave correlation in the angled section is the most significant. The mean, variance and covariance of the stress wave amplitude decrease with an increase in bend angle. The standard deviation of the beam material density plays an important role in longitudinal displacement wave covariance.

The probabilistic tsunami risk assessment of large coastal areas is challenging because the inland propagation of a tsunami wave requires an accurate numerical model that takes into account the interaction between the ground, the infrastructures, and the wave itself. Classic mesh-based methods face many challenges in the propagation of a tsunami wave inland due to their ever-moving boundary conditions. In alternative, mesh-less based methods can be used, but they require too much computational power in the far-field. This study proposes a hybrid approach. A mesh-based method propagates the tsunami wave from the far-field to the near-field, where the influence of the sea floor is negligible, and a mesh-less based method, smooth particle hydrodynamic, propagates the wave onto the coast and inland, and takes into account the wave structure interaction. Nowadays, this can be done because the advent of general purpose GPUs made mesh-less methods computationally affordable. The method is used to simulate the inland propagation of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami off the coast of Indonesia.

We herein propose a new design procedure of a flexible container ship model where the vertical bending and torsional vibration modes are similar to its prototype. To achieve similarity in torsional vibration mode shapes, the height of the shear center of the model must be located below the bottom hull, similar to an actual container ship with large opening decks. Therefore, we designed a ship model by imparting appropriate stiffness to the hull, using urethane foam without a backbone. We built a container ship model according to this design strategy and validated its dynamic elastic properties using a decay test. We measured wave-induced structural vibrations and present the results of tank experiments in regular and freak waves.

In this study, system modeling and dynamic analysis of crane are conducted. Especially, among many different kinds of a crane system, the issues on crane operating problems installed on the vessel are considered. As well known, marine systems including cranes are exposed to various disturbances such as vessel motions, hydrodynamic forces, wave and wind attack, etc. In order to analysis the system dynamic with environmental conditions, the authors derived the nonlinear dynamic model of offshore crane and derived a linear model which is used for designing the control system. Using the obtained nonlinear and linear models, simulations were conducted to evaluate the usefulness of the obtained models. By simulation and result evaluation, the usefulness of the linear model, which presents the dynamics, is effectively verified.

Tungsten heavy metal is characterized by a high density and novel combination of strength and ductility. Among them, 90W-7Ni-3Fe is used for applications, where the high specific weight of the material plays an important role. They are used as counterweights, rotating inertia members, as well as fur defense purposes(kinetic energy Penetrators, etc.). Because of these applications, it is essential to detemine the dynamic characteristics of tungsten alloy. In this paper, Explicit FEM(finite element method) is employed to investigate the dynamic characteristics of tungsten heavy metal under base of stress wave propagation theory for SHPB, and the model of specimen is divided into two parts to understand the phenomenon that stress wave penetrates through each tungsten base and matrix. This simulation results were compared to experimental one and through this program, the dynamic stress-strain curve of tungsten heavy metal can be obtained using quasi static stress-strain curve of pure tungsten and matrix.

현재 국내외에서는 진동기계기초에 진동으로 발생하는 추가 연직 동하중을 산정하고 설계함에 있어서 명확하게 제시된 기준이나 이론이 정립되어 있지 않아 국내의 경우, 심각한 진동조건이 아님에도 불구하고 진동에 의한 추가 동하중을 정적하중의 최대 100%로 간주하는 극히 보수적인 설계가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 연직 기계진동으로 인하여 정하중외에 추가적으로 발생하는 동적하중의 정량적 크기를 평가하기 위한 모형실험 방안을 제시하는 것이다. 실내 모형실험의 기초실험으로, 제한된 크기의 모형 토조 내에서 발생할 수 있는 진동 반사파의 영향을 분석 및 보완하였고, 제작한 모형 진동기계기초의 고유진동수를 산정하여 실험 시 공진영향을 최소화하였다. 제안된 기법을 적용한 본 모형실험을 수행하여, 중간 조밀도의 모래 기초지반에 놓인 기계진동 얕은 기초에 기계진동에 의해 발생하는 추가적인 동하중의 정량적 크기를 평가해 보았다. 모형실험결과로부터, 현재 국내외에서 제시하고 있는 설계기법의 적합성을 논의해 보았다.

Pile-supported wharves, port structures that support the upper deck, are installed on sloping ground. The sloping ground should be covered with a rubble mound or artificial blocks to protect the interior material from erosion caused by wave force. The behavior of the pile may vary during an earthquake if a rubble mound is installed on the slope. However, studies evaluating the effect of rubble mound on the pile during an earthquake are limited. Here, we performed dynamic centrifuge model tests to evaluate the dynamic behavior of piles installed in a slope reinforced with rubble mound. In the structure, some sections (single-pile, 2×2 group-pile) were selected for the experiment. The moment of the group-pile decreased by up to 26% upon installation of the rubble mound, whereas the moment of the single-pile increased by up to 41%, thus demonstrating conflicting results.

부유식 해상풍력발전기의 시뮬레이션을 위해서 본 연구에서는 2MW 육상 풍력발전기에 부유구조물인 Tension Leg Platform(TLP) 구조를 추가하였다. 기상청 관측데이터와 해수면으로부터의 높이에 대해 풍속을 정의하는 지수법칙을 이용하여 풍하중을 산출하고 블레이드와 타워에 일정한 높이간격으로 적용하였다. 상대모리슨 방정식을 이용하여 파랑하중을 모델링하였다. 블레이드의 회전속도를 정격속도인 18rpm 으로 고려하고, 풍하중과 파랑하중 작용 시 2MW의 부유식 해상풍력기의 동적거동 해석을 수행하였다. 파랑하중에 대한 해상풍력기의 공진특성을 조사하기 위해 타워와 블레이드의 탄성체 모델을 구성하여 해상풍력기의 고유진동수를 계산하였다. 타워와 블레이드의 탄성효과가 해상풍력기의 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 타워만 탄성체로 구성된 탄성타워모델과 타워와 블레이드가 탄성체로 고려된 탄성타워 블레이드모델을 각각 강체 모델과 비교하였다.

The dynamic character of a system of the governing differential equations for the one- dimensional two-fluid model, where the momentum flux parameters are employed to consider the velocity and void fraction distribution in a flow channel, is investigated. In response to a perturbation in the form of a＇traveling wave, a linear stability analysis is peformed for the governing differential equations. The expression for the growth factor as a function of wave number and various flow parameters is analytically derived. It provides the necessary and sufficient conditions for the stability of the one-dimensional two-fluid model in terms of momentum flux parameters. It is demonstrated that the one-dimensional two-fluid model employing the physical momentum flux parameters for the whole range of dispersed flow regime, which are determined from the simplified velocity and void fraction profiles constructed from the available experimental data and $C_{o}$ correlation, is stable to the linear perturbations in all wave-lengths. As the basic form of the governing differential equations for the conventional one-dimensional two-fluid model is mathematically ill posed, it is suggested that the velocity and void distributions should be properly accounted for in the one-dimensional two-fluid model by use of momentum flux parameters.s.
