For improving the performance of maglev systems with a combined lift and guidance, it is suggested that the multivariable control systems and a secondary suspension should be added. The former is required to reject both track irregularities in vertical disturbances and wind gusts in lateral disturbances, and the latter to guarantee passengers against an unsatisfied criteria in ride quality. In this paper, bond graph model for the study of nonlinear dynamics of maglev systems with a combined lift and guidance is presented briefly. And, the secondary suspension is analyzed to understand the role of stiffness and damping factors in passive devices. Finally, LQG/LTR mulitivariable control systems are designed for the overall maglev systems with and without secondary suspension, and then the system performances in these two cases are evaluated.

This paper highlights the role of innovative vibration control system based on two promising properties in a parallel configuration. Hybrid device consists of two main components; recentering wires of shape memory alloy (SMA) and steel pipe section as an energy dissipater element. This approach concentrates damage in the steel pipe and prevents the main structural members from yielding. By regulation of the main adjustable design parameter, an optimum performance of the device is obtained. The effectiveness of the device in passive control of structures is evaluated through nonlinear time history analyses of a five-story steel frame with and without the hybrid device. Comparing the results proves that the hybrid device has a considerable potential to mitigate the residual drift ratio, peak absolute acceleration and peak interstory drift of the structure.

A single-phase uninterruptible power supply system equipped with a superconducting magnet energy storage unit is proposed to achieve a simple circuit configuration and higher system reliability. It reduces a number of switching devices by applying a common-arm scheme. Removing some switches or substituting passive elements for active switches can increase the sophistication and reduces degree of freedom in control strategy. However, high-performance DSP controller can execute the complicated control task with no additional cost. Operational principles to normal, stored-energy, and bypass mode are discussed in detail. The validity of the proposed system is verified by experimental results.

The paper intends to summarize some guidelines for future smart structure system application in military aircraft. This preview of system integration is based upon a review on approximately one and a half decades of application oriented aerospace related smart structures research. Achievements in the area of structural health monitoring, adaptive shape, adaptive load bearing devices and active vibration control have been reached, potentials have been identified, several feasibility studies have been performed and some smart technologies have been already implemented. However the realization of anticipated visions and previously initial timescales announced have been rather too optimistic. The current development shall be based on a more realistic basis including more emphasis on fundamental aircraft strength, stiffness, static and dynamic load and stability requirements of aircraft and interdisciplinary integration requirements and improvements of integrated actors, actuator systems and control systems including micro controllers.

본 연구에서는 진동 운동하는 익형의 동적실속 특성을 향상시키기 위하여, 고정 앞전 Droop과 Gurney 플랩의 크기와 위치에 대한 최적설계를 수행하였다. 고정 앞전 Droop이 모멘트 특성의 개선에 효율적이나 양력특성의 저하를 유발 할 수 있다. 반면에 Gurney 플랩은 양력특성의 향상을 가져오지만, 모멘트특성을 악화시키는 특성이 있다. 고정앞전 Droop의 설계변수는 상호 보완적인 특성을 갖는 위치와 각도를 설정하였으며, Gurney 플랩은 그 길이를 설계변수로 설정하였다. 또한, 동적실속과 같이 비선형성이 강한 문제의 설계를 위해서 고차 다항식의 반응면 기법과 민감도 기반의 최적설계 기법을 사용하였다. 최적화는 양력과 모멘트 특성이 동시에 개선되도록 수행 하였다. 설계 결과 동적실속의 양력, 모멘트 및 항력특성의 향상을 가져올 수 있었으며, 가변 앞전 Droop과 Gurney 플랩을 결합한 능동제어장치에 버금가는 동적실속 제어 효과를 갖을 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Lots of semi-active control devices have been developed in recent years because they have the best features of passive and active system. Especially, controllable magneto-rheological(MR) fluid devices have received significant attention in these area of research. The MR fluid is the material that reversibly changes from a free-flowing, linear viscous fluid to a semisolid with a controllable yield strength in milliseconds when exposed to a magnetic field. If the magnetic field is induced by moving a permanent magnet instead of applying current to a solenoid, it is possible to design a MR damper consuming low power because the power consumption is reduced at steady state. This paper proposes valve mode MR damper using permanent magnetic circuit that has wide range of operation with low power consumption, a design parameter is adopted. The magnetic circuit, material of choke and choke type are selected experimentally with the design parameter. The behaviors of the damper are examined and torque tracking control using PID feedback controller is performed for step, ramp and sinusoidal trajectiories.

본 논문은 건물의 형태와 동적특성을 변화시키지 않고 건물에 부가질량을 설치하여 건물의 진동을 제어하는 방법중 수동형 제진장치인 TLD(tuned liquid damper)와 MTLD(multiple tuned liquid damper)의 진동응답을 감소시키기 위해 진동대를 이용한 성능실험을 실시하였다. 따라서 기존의 형태별(원형, 직사각형) TLD 실험의 실험 데이터를 가지고 가진 진폭(1mm, 3mm, 5mm, 10mm, 20mm) 의 변화에 따른 고유진동수(0.44Hz, 0.55Hz)에 대한 MTLD의 형태별 실험을 통하여 TLD와 MTLD의 진동감소효과에 대한 성능실험을 비교 분석 하였다.

This paper proposes valve mode MR damper using permanent magnetic circuit that has wide range of operation with low power consumption and small size. To design a MR damper that has a large maximum dissipating torque and a low damping coefficient, a design parameter is adopted. The magnetic circuit, material of choke and choke type are selected experimentally with the design parameter. The behaviors of the damper are examined and torque tracking control using PID feedback controller is performed for step, ramp and sinusoidal trajectories.

Among various retrofitting strategies, use of semi-active control for retrofitting a building structure has gained momentum in recent years. One of the techniques for such retrofitting is to connect a weaker building to an adjacent stronger building by semi-active devices, so that performances of a weaker building are significantly improved for seismic forces. In this paper, a ten storey weaker building is connected to an adjacent stronger building using magneto-rheological (MR) dampers, for primarily improving the performance of the weaker building in terms of displacement, drift and base shear. For this, a fuzzy logic controller is specifically developed by fuzzyfying the responses of the coupled system. The performance of the control strategy is compared with the passive-on and passive-off controls. Pounding Mitigation between the two buildings is also investigated using all three control strategies. The results show that there exists a fundamental frequency ratio between the two buildings for which maximum control of the weaker building response takes place with no penalty on the stronger building. There exists also a fundamental frequency ratio where control of the weaker building response is achieved at the expense of the amplification of the stronger building. However, coupling strategy always improves the possibility of pounding mitigation.
