Seismic control performance of MR dampers, which have severe nonlinearity, varies with respect to the dynamic characteristics of an earthquake such as magnitude, frequency and duration. In this study, the effects of excitation characteristics on the equivalent linear system of a building structure with the MR damper are investigated through numerical analysis for artificial ground motions generated from different response spectrums. The equivalent damping ratio of the structure with the MR damper is calculated using Newmark and Hall's equations for ground motion amplification factors. It is found that the equivalent damping ratio of the structure with the MR damper is dependent on the ratio of the maximum friction force of the MR damper over excitation magnitude. Frequency contents of the earthquake ground motion affects the equivalent damping ratio of long-period structures considerably. Also, additional damping effect caused by interaction between the viscousity and friction of the MR damper is observed. Finally. response reduction factors for equivalent linear systems are proposed in order to improve accuracy in the prediction of the actual nonlinear response.

광통신용 WDM 박막필터를 다중 공동 구조에 의한 방법과 등가 박막을 이용한 방법으로 설계하였고 특징을 비교하였다. 다중 공동 필터는 공동의 수가 증가함에 따라 변수(공동의 수, 각 거울의 주기수, 간격층의 차수)가 많아 설계가 매우 복잡해지므로 보다 실용성 있는 설계를 위해 대칭적으로 변수를 변화시켜 설계하였다. 다중 공동 구조에 의한 방법은 일반적으로 사용되는 4중, 5중 공동 필터를 대칭적으로 변수를 변화시켜 각각 100 ㎓, 50 ㎓ DWDM박막필터를 설계하기 위한 조건을 제시하였고, 또한 다중 공동 필터를 등가 박막으로 해석하여 변수를 최소화하고, 등가 박막의 특성과 WDM 필터의 규격이 대응되도록 설계과정을 일반화시켜 WDM 박막필터를 설계하였다. 두 방법을 비교한 결과 중요한 특징은 다중 공동 구조에 의한 방법은 변수를 적절히 변화시키는 방법을 사용하고 있어 시행착오를 거쳐야 하지만, 등가 박막을 이용한 방법은 체계적이고 정량화된 설계를 할 수 있다.

탄성응답스펙트럼을 사용하는 능력스펙트럼법은 비선형 시스템을 등가의 선형시스템으로 치환하여 주어진 지진 하중에 대한 구조물의 최대 비선형 거동을 예측한다. 본 연구의 목적은 이러한 능력스펙트럼법들의 정확성을 검증하고, 예측 특성을 비교하는 것이다. 이를 위해, ATC-40, G lkan, Kowalsky, 그리고 Iwan이 제시한 방법을 이용하여 등가주기와 등가감쇠비를 산정한 후, ATC-40에서 제시한 절차B에 따라 성능점을 산정 하였다. 전반적으로 ATC-40 방범은 구조물의 응답을 과소 평가하여 안전하지 못한 설계결과를 가져 올 수 있으며, G lkan과 Kowalsky의 방법은 과대 평가하는 경향을 가지고 있다. Iwan이 제시한 방법은 ATC-40 방법과 G lkan과 Kowalsky 방법의 중간 값을 예측함으로써, 비교적 정확한 값에 가까운 최대 변위를 산출하였다. 그리고, Kowalsky 방법은 항복 후 강성비에 따라 등가감쇠비를 음수로 산정함으로써 예측 값을 제시하지 못하는 경우가 있음을 확인하였다.

Previous researches on the analysis of algae concentration were restricted to applying single-valued decay coefficient during simulation period, and the accuracy as well as the applicability were severely challenged. In this study, an equivalent tracking method of decay coefficient was proposed by introducing the time-series decay coefficients and restart option. Dye module in EFDC model was employed to route the temporal variation of Chl-a concentration. It was shown that the simulation results can be significantly improved up to 46% when the equivalent tracking method was activated.

As an unique acoustic characteristic of a Korean bell. beat phenomenon is a periodic repetition of strong and weak sounds. Beat sounds good when it is clear and it has a proper period, however, it is not easy to satisfy these two conditions simultaneously. In this study, we propose a beat tuning method to satisfy these two conditions, by using an equivalent bell model. First, we construct an equivalent bell which has the same beat property with the 1st beat of a real bell and we investigate the change of mode pair by finite element analysis, when thickness of the bell is locally decreased at $22.5^{\circ}$ from the striking point. From the analysis result, minimum thickness reduction amount is determined to make a clear and strong beat.

The residual displacement ratio (RDRs) response spectra have been generally used as an important means to evaluate the post-earthquake repairability, and the ratios of residual to maximum inelastic displacement are considered to be more appropriate for development of the spectra. This methodology, however, assumes that the expected residual displacement can be computed as the product of the RDRs and maximum inelastic displacement, without considering the correlation between these two variables, which inevitably introduces potential systematic error. For providing an adequately accurate estimate of residual displacement, while accounting for the collapse resistance performance prior to the repairability evaluation, a probability-based procedure to estimate the residual displacement demands using the nonlinear static analysis (NSA) is developed for single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems. To this end, the energy-based equivalent damping ratio used for NSA is revised to obtain the maximum displacement coincident with the nonlinear time history analysis (NTHA) results in the mean sense. Then, the possible systematic error resulted from RDRs spectra methodology is examined based on the NTHA results of SDOF systems. Finally, the statistical relation between the residual displacement and the NSA-based maximum displacement is established. The results indicate that the energy-based equivalent damping ratio will underestimate the damping for short period ranges, and overestimate the damping for longer period ranges. The RDRs spectra methodology generally leads to the results being non-conservative, depending on post-yield stiffness. The proposed approach emphasizes that the repairability evaluation should be based on the premise of no collapse, which matches with the current performance-based seismic assessment procedure.

In this study straightforward design procedure for unbond brace hysteretic dampers is developed. The required amount of equivalent damping to satisfy given performance acceptance criteria is obtained conveniently based on the capacity spectrum method without carrying out time-consuming nonlinear dynamic time history analysis. Then the size of the unbend braces is determined from the required equivalent damping. Parametric study is performed for the design variables such as natural period, yield strength, the stiffness after the first yield, yield stress of the unbond brace.

In this study, we propose a practical method to improve the clarity and the period of the beat in a Korean bell. Proper beating in vibration and sound is very important feature in Korean bell. An equivalent ring theory is applied and finite element analysis is performed to determine the condition of the asymmetry of the bell. The clearity and the period of the beat are improved by attaching a counter mass or decreasing local thickness. This paper shows that the improved the attaching a counter mass or decreasing local thickness. This paper of the beat are improved by attaching a counter mass or decreasing local thickness. This paper shows that the amount and position of the local variation for the required beat condition can be predicted by using the equivalent model, The predicted results are verified by the experiment.

To predict rolling performance for a barge-type FPSO, the evaluation of correct nonlinear roll damping is critical. The square section of FPSO causes a considerable viscous damping effect. Free roll decay tests were carried out to estimate nonlinear roll damping for a barge-type FPSO, under three different conditions. The roll motion RAO was deduced from model tests in the wave condition of the wideband spectrum. In numerical calculation, the quadratic damping was considered as equivalent linear damping, using the results of free roll decay test. Tested roll performance in the JONSWAP wave spectrum was compared with numerical results. These two results shaw good agreement, in spite of the proximity of peak wave period and roll natural period.

In this research, the feasibility of wireless senor for compressive strength evaluation was checked by applying on the actual apartment construction site with insulation formwork during winder period. As a result, there was no significant problem on monitoring the compressive strength of the concrete with the sensor. Thus it is considered that the suggested method can be an efficient method for the quality control at the construction site.
