In this study a base-isolated liquid storage tank subjected to seismic ground motion is numerically simulated on frequency , domain considering three-dimensional liquid-structure-soil interaction. A hybrid formulation which combines the versatility of finite elements for tank structure and the efficiency of boundary elements for liquid and soil region is adopted for efficient modeling. The base-isolation system using the effective stiffness and damping ratio is also included in this formulation. in order to demonstrate the accuracy and validity of the developed solution the numerical results were compared with the reference solutions in each interaction problem. The effects of the liquid filling ratio and the stiffness of base-isolation system on the behavior of the liquid storage tanks are analyzed.

Many hudraulic components have nonlinearities to some extent. These nonlinearities often cause the time delay, thus degrading the performance of the hydraulic control systems and making it difficult to modelthem. In this paper, a new vibration isolation control algorithm that eliminates the necessity of a sophiscated modeling of hydraulic system was proposed. The algotithm is a hybrid type control shecheme consisting of a linear controller and a hetero-synaptic neural network controller. Using this control scheme, simulations and experiments were performed for 1 DOF(Degree of freedom) and 2 DOF vibration isolation. The hybrid type control algorithm can isolate the base vibration signifcantly rather than linear control algorithm. And from the weights in hetero-synaptic neural network, we can get the 2nd equivalent differentialmodel of the hydraulic control system with on-line control operation. This equivalent model provides us with much information, such as stability and the characteristics of the control system.

Total efficiency of transmitter system was improved by developing combinational 2-Way Isohybrid for GSM1900 base station in this paper. The size of product was decreased and the characteristics were stabilized. The isohybrid transmitter combiner of chip coupler type and hybrid coupler type were designed and fabricated. Insertion loss for chip coupler type isohybrid was $3.17\;dB{\sim}3.47\;dB$. On the other hand, insertion loss for hybrid coupler type was $3.17\;dB{\sim}3.42\;dB$. Isolations between ANT and port were $24.23\;dB{\sim}29.98\;dB$ in case of chip coupler type Isohybrid and were $26.28\;dB{\sim}36.91\;dB$ in case of hybrid coupler type, respectively.

This building is a forty-eight story, 170 meters high multiple dwelling house with Dual Frame System (DFS), a coupled vibration system connecting two independent structures with hydraulic dampers. Generation of large deformation between two structures during earthquakes contributes to make the hydraulic dampers effective. To improve the aseismic performance more, this building adopts DFS hybrid system that consists of DFS and base isolation system. About typical floors, columns and beams are constructed with LRV precast concrete method that shorten the construction period greatly by integrating column-beam joints in column members.

현대의 건물은 초고층화 되어가기 때문에 바람이나 지진에 의한 건물의 과다진동이 일어나며 이것은 기초분리(base isolation) 방법 또는 제진장치를 설치함으로써 해결할 수가 있다. 기초분리 방법은 지진 다발 지역에서 지진에 의한 피해를 감소시키기 위하여 주로 이용되며 제진장치는 지진은 물론 바람을 받는 고층건물, 타워, 다리 등의 대형 구조물의 제진에 사용이 되며 병원, 컴퓨터센터, 그리고 반도체 공장 등 정밀한 작업이 이루어지는 곳에서의 국부적인 제진에 적용이 되고 있다. 제진장치는 수동제진장치와 능동제진장치로 대별이 되며 원리는 질량을 이용한 건물의 감쇠력을 증대시키는 데 있다. 능동제진장치를 이용한 시스템은 과다한 설치비와 운영비 뿐만 아니라 강한 바람이나 지진이 왔을 때 전력 중단이 되어 작동이 되지 않을 때가 있으므로 현재로서는 수동제진장치가 많이 이용이 되고 있다. 따라서 현재 강한 바람이나 지진에 대한 건물전체의 거동은 수동제진장치에 의하여 대처하고 약한 바람과 지진 등에 대한 국부적인 제진에는 능동제진장치를 이용하는 복합제진시스템(hybrid vibration control system)이 제시되고 있다.

This paper presents a hybrid control strategy for seismic protection of a benchmark cable-stayed bridge, which is provided as a testbed structure for the development of strategies for the control of cable-stayed bridges. This benchmark problem considers the cable-stayed bridge that is scheduled for completion in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, USA in 2003. Seismic considerations were strongly considered in the design of this bridge due to the location of the bridge in the New Madrid seismic zone and its critical role as a principal crossing of the Mississippi river. Based on detailed drawings of this cable-stayed bridge, a three-dimensional linearlized evaluation model has been developed to represent the complex behavior of the bridge. A set of eighteen evaluation criteria has been developed to evaluate the capabilities of each control strategy. In this study, a hybrid control system is composed of a passive control system to reduce the earthquake-induced forces in the structure and an active control system to further reduce the bridge responses, especially deck displacements. Conventional base isolation devices such as lead rubber bearings are used for the passive control design and Bouc-Wen model is used to simulate the nonlinear behavior of these devices For the active control design, ideal hydraulic actuators are used and on $H_2$/LQG control algorithm is adopted. Numerical simulation results show that the performance of the proposed hybrid control strategy is quite effective compared to that of the passive control strategy and slightly better than that of the active control strategy. The hybrid control method is also more reliable than the fully active control method due to the passive control part. Therefore, the proposed hybrid control strategy can effectively be used to seismically excited cable-stayed bridges.

This paper introduces a base isolation system-tuned mass damper inerter (BIS-TMDI) hybrid system to the AP1000 nuclear power plant (NPP), which reduces seismic damage potential of the NPP structure. The effects of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) caused by the passive containment cooling system water storage tank (PCCWST) on NPP's seismic performance are investigated. The FSI of water tank theoretical model is considered based on the Housner's model, and a series of time history analyses are performed to prove the rationality of the proposed model. Three single-objective optimization strategies are employed to minimize the relative displacement variance and absolute acceleration variance of the upper structure, as well as the filtered energy index (FEI). Furthermore, a multi-objective optimization strategy considering all these three indexes is proposed to obtain optimal parameters of vibration control. The influence of vibration control strategies on the relative deformation and acceleration of the upper structure is explored with various water level ratios. The analytical results indicate that the proposed BIS-TMDI strategy has significantly reduced the NPP structure's seismic response. The effectiveness of the vibration control strategy is influenced by the water level ratio, emphasizing the significance of designing an appropriate water level ratio to reduce NPP structure's seismic response.
