Previous major earthquakes indicated that the earthquake induced ground motions are typical non-stationary processes, which are non-stationary in both amplification and frequency. For the convenience of aseismic design and analysis, it usually assumes that the ground motions at structural supports are stationary processes. The development of time-frequency analysis technique makes it possible to evaluate the non-stationary responses of engineering structures subjected to non-stationary inputs, which is more general and realistic than the analysis method commonly used in engineering. In this paper, the wavelet-based stochastic vibration analysis methodology is adopted to calculate the non-stationary responses of multi-support structures. For comparison, the stationary response based on the standard random vibration method is also investigated. A frame structure and a two-span bridge are analyzed. The effects of non-stationary spatial ground motion and local site conditions are considered, and the influence of structural property on the structural responses are also considered. The analytical results demonstrate that the non-stationary spatial ground motions have significant influence on the response of multi-support structures.

In piezoelectric flexible structures, the contribution of vibration modes to the dynamic response of system may change with the location of piezoelectric actuator patches, which means that the ability of actuators to control vibration modes should be taken into account in the development of modal reduction model. The spatial $H_2$ norm of modes, which serves as a measure of the intensity of modes to system dynamical response, is used to pick up the modes included in the reduction model. Based on the reduction model, the paper develops the state-space representation for uncertain flexible tructures with piezoelectric material as non-collocated actuators/sensors in the modal space, taking into account uncertainties due to modal parameters variation and unmodeled residual modes. In order to suppress the vibration of the structure, a dynamic output feedback control law is designed by imultaneously considering the conflicting performance specifications, such as robust stability, transient response requirement, disturbance rejection, actuator saturation constraints. Based on linear matrix inequality, the vibration control design is converted into a linear convex optimization problem. The simulation results show how the influence of vibration modes on the dynamical response of structure varies with the location of piezoelectric actuators, why the uncertainties should be considered in the reductiom model to avoid exciting high-frequency modes in the non-collcated vibration control, and the possiblity that the conflicting performance specifications are dealt with simultaneously.

본 논문에서는 인간의 시각특성을 반영한 적응 DCT 영상 부호화에 관하여 연구하였다. 인간의 시각은 특정한 중간 주파수 대역에 가장 민감하며, 저주파 대역과 고주파 대역에 대하여 상대적으로 덜 민감하다. 이러한 특성은 많은 심리시각적 실험을 통하여 MTF(Modulation transfer function)라는 수식으로 모델링되었다. DCT는 공간영역의 에너지를 주파수 영역으로 변환하므로 MTF를 효율적으로 이용할 수 있다. 또한 시각의 공간 마스킹 특성에 의하여 변화가 많은 영역의 잡음은 변화가 적은 영역의 잡음에 비하여 인간의 시각에 덜 민감하다. 제안된 부호화 방법은 시각의 공간주파수 반응 특성을 양자화 행렬로 채택하였으며, 영상의 변화도에 따라 변환 블럭을 차등양자화 함으로써 주관적 화질의 향상을 꾀하였다. 각 블럭의 변화도를 측정하기 위한 방법으로 공간 영역에서 간단한 연산을 행하였으며, 이에 따라 변화가 적은 블럭을 상대적으로 정확하게 양자화하였다. 실험결과 낮은 비트율에서 시각특성을 반영한 제안된 부호화 방법이 주관적으로 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인하였다.

This paper presents some shaking table tests conducted on a 1/4-scaled model with 5-story steel reinforced concrete (SRC) spatial frame with irregular section columns under a series of base excitations with gradually increasing acceleration peaks. The test frame was subjected to a sequence of seismic simulation tests including 10 white noise vibrations and 51 seismic simulations. Each seismic simulation was associated with a different level of seismic disaster. Dynamic characteristic, strain response, acceleration response, displacement response, base shear and hysteretic behavior were analyzed. The test results demonstrate that at the end of the loading process, the failure mechanism of SRC frame with irregular section columns is the beam-hinged failure mechanism, which satisfies the seismic code of "strong column-weak beam". With the increase of acceleration peaks, accumulated damage of the frame increases gradually, which induces that the intrinsic frequency decreases whereas the damping ratio increases, and the peaks of acceleration and displacement occur later. During the loading process, torsion deformation appears and the base shear grows fast firstly and then slowly. The hysteretic curves are symmetric and plump, which shows a good capacity of energy dissipation. In summary, SRC frame with irregular section columns can satisfy the seismic requirements of "no collapse under seldom earthquake", which indicates that this structural system is suitable for the construction in the high seismic intensity zone.

Measurement of fluctuating pressure by tube system is carefully designed due to the organ-pipe resonance. It is necessary to correct the pressure before analysis. The three method for correction the distortion fluctuation pressure short tube length and the frequency response functions and insert a restrictor in the tube to increase the damping. The first method is useful when the tube length is short. In second method, the distorted signal through the tubing transformed into the frequency domain, dividing by transfer function and inverse fourier transforming back into the time domain gives the required pressure signal. In this paper three types of tubing which have different length of 100cm, 150cm, 200cm were experimented the distorted signal and correct the distortion signal

The physical properties of the spatial model, mass, stiffness and damping matrix, can be defined by a specific natural frequency, damping ratio and mode shape. These modal parameters can be determined from a set of frequency response function(FRF) measured by exciting the structure and measuring the responses at various points around the structure. In this paper, The Transfer Matrix is obtained by experimental modal analysis for the 3-story scaled building model which TMD is installed on top and the physical properties of the spatial model is determined using the residue matrix and the location of poles from FRF measurement using polynomial curve fitting methods.

풍향풍속계와 구조 모니터링 시스템을 설치하여 강풍과 거물의 동적 특성을 계측하였다. 계측건물은 속초의 산기슭에 위치하고 있다. 감쇠율과 고유진동수의 진폭 의존성을 분석하였다. 감쇠율의 진폭의존성은 9%로서, 가속도진폭이 증가함에 따라서 감쇠율이 명료하게 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 계측데이터에서 얻은 동적 특성의 경향은 사용성 평가시 건물의 동적 특성을 평가하는데 유용하게 사용되리라 기대된다.

With increasing number construction of high-rise building which has about 40 to 60 floors there have been many kinds of problem which related with usage from vibration. To predict response acceleration, it is important to assess correct natural frequency. However, due to the noise of MEMS sensor, it is difficult to measure dynamic characteristic such as natural frequency when measuring ambient vibration using MEMS sensor within cell phone. Therefore, a comparative analysis on vibration measuring applications was performed after measuring ambient vibration of 2 skyscrappers which have height between 133.5~244.3m that are located in Seoul and Observation tower using I-jishin APP with noise reduction function of MEMS sensor in order to verify the effectiveness of low noise type vibration measurement APP.

To remove unnecessary background from tooth X-ray images and enhance the sharpness of tooth and gum images, image processing techniques including contrast adjustment and histogram equalization are used. The introduction of two methods for detecting the boundary of the tooth and gum region and separating the tooth and gum from the background. In both cases, the background of the tooth X-ray images could be removed as a result, improving the quality of the images. The proposed method improves MTF (Modulation Transfer Function), an image performance indicator, as a result of measuring MTF. The original image's spatial frequency ranged from 4.73 to 11.40 lp/mm at the 10% response, whereas the proposed image's spatial frequency ranged from 10.90 to 11.85 lp/mm, giving uniformly enhanced results. In contrast, tooth and gums could not be completely separated from the background using Apple's Lift subject from background function.
