An inerter is a passive mechanical element whose inertance can be thousands of times its own physical mass. This paper discusses the application of an inerter-based passive control system, termed rotational inertial double-tuned mass damper (RIDTMD), to mitigate human-induced floor vibrations. First, the acceleration frequency response function of the floor with an RIDTMD is first derived. It is then employed to determine the optimal design parameters of the RIDTMD using the extended fixed-points technique. Based on a theoretical analysis, design-oriented empirical functions are proposed for the RIDTMD optimal parameters, whose performance for floor vibration control is evaluated by numerical examples, in which three typical human-induced load types are considered: walking, jumping, and bouncing. The results indicate that the applicability and effectiveness of the RIDTMD for human-induced floor vibration control are robust for various load types, load frequencies, and floor natural frequencies. For the same mass ratio, the RIDTMD is better than the TMD in reducing the floor vibration amplitude and improving the effective frequency suppression bandwidth, and for the same vibration suppression effect, the mass of the RIDTMD is much lighter than that of the TMD.

유압식 actuator를 이용한 구조물 진동의 능동제어시스템을 개발하였다. 개발한 시스템은 유압장치, actuator 및 제어장치로 구성되어 있으며, 구조물의 진동을 수진기로 감지하고, 이 신호를 받아 actuator에 연결된 보조질량의 운동을 최적제어하여 구조물의 진동을 제어한다. 능동제어시스템의 제어성능 검증시험을 위해 약 500kg의 4기둥지지 후판구조물($L{\times}W{$\times}H=1200mm{\times}800mm{\times}1600mm$)을 제작하여 시험을 수행하였으며, 시험결과 구조물의 공진주파수 근처에서 진동레벨이 약 1/6수준으로 감소됨을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는 압전복합재 작동기가 표면에 부착된 Hull 구조물의 유한요소모델을 구성하여 동적 특성을 고찰하였으며, 구조물의 진동제어 특성을 평가하였다. Hull 구조물은 양 끝이 닫혀있는 실린더형 쉘 구조물을 고려하였으며, 항공기 동체나 잠수함과 같은 수중 구조물 등의 간단한 모델로 사용될 수 있다. 구조물의 진동제어를 위해 최근 NASA Langley 연구소에서 개발된 압전복합재인 Macro-Fiber Composite(MFC)를 적용하였다. MFC는 압전세라믹 섬유를 이용하여 유연성을 향상시키고, 맞물림 전극을 적용하여 면내 방향에서 큰 압전효과를 구현할 수 있도록 하였다. 유한요소모델을 바탕으로 구조물의 지배방정식을 도출하였으며, 동적 특성을 해석하여 실제 제작된 구조물의 실험결과와 비교 검증하였다. 최적제어 알고리즘을 구성하여 구조물의 진동제어 성능을 평가하였으며, 효과적으로 구조물의 진동을 제어할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Structural intensity has been mainly utilized to identify vibration energy flow in a vessel. In this paper, the structural intensity of a shuttle tanker subjected to H-moment of the main engine was calculated using a finite element model. From the analysis, it was found that the top-bracing elements, which support the main engine onto the hull structure to prevent the excessive transverse vibration of the main engine, play the role of the dominant path and sink for vibration energy flow from the main engine. Therefore, the structural intensity was controlled by the modification of stiffness and damping characteristics of the top-bracing elements. As a result, it is observed that the transverse vibration level at the center of navigation bridge deck decreased after the control of structural intensity.

A new mechanical-electrical hybrid passive damping treatment is proposed to improve the performance of structural vibration control. The proposed hybrid passive damping system consists of a constrained layer damping treatment and a shunt circuit. In a passive mechanical constrained layer damping, a viscoelastic material damping layer is used to control the structural vibration modes in high frequency range. The passive electrical damping is designed for targeting the nitration amplitude in the low frequency range. The governing equations of motion are derived through the Hamilton's principle. The obtained mathematical model Is validated experimentally. The presented theoretical and experimental techniques provide invaluable tools for controlling the multiple modes of a vibrating structure over a wide frequency band.

Active vibration control of laminated composite plates has been carried out to design structure with maximum possible damping capacity, using piezoceramic sensor/actuators and passive constrained-layer damping treatment. The equations of motion are derived for symmetrical, multi-layer laminated plates. The damping ratio(ζ) and modal damping(2ζ$\omega$) of the first bending and torsional modes are calculated by means of iterative complex eigensolution method for both passive and active vibration control. This paper addresses a design strategy of laminated composite plate under structural vibrations.

In this paper the active vibration control system using a linear oscillatory actuator(LOA) is studied to suppress structural vibration. In the LOA, the AC-power-energized armature generates a shift field in an air gap, which produces a oscillating force to the mover in the magnetic field generated by high density permanent magnets. LOA has relatively simple structure with almost maintenance free, compared with a hydraulic actuator. Performance test of the active vibration control system using a LOA is carried out on a steel test structure under base excitation. From this test, it is confirmed that the acceleration level of the test structure is drastically reduced near the resonant region.

The vibration damping of structure is increased by thermal actuator. The thermal actuator causes thermal stress across the section of structure. The several kinds of control theories are proposed and the proposed control theories are successful in increasing vibration damping. This scheme can be effectively applied to large space structure [LSS] having very low natural frequencies.

This study outlines the analysis of toggle system and the vibration control performance when the toggle-rotational inertia damper system was applied to a structure. Numerical analysis shows that the relative displacement of the structure can be amplified by amplification mechanism of the toggle system and the capacity of the damper can be reduced without the loss of vibration control performance. It is also observed that vibration control effects is caused by the increase of equivalent mass due to the rotational inertia of damper.

This paper presents a structural design of the "(Tentative Name) Toranomon Hills Residential Tower" which is currently under construction in Tokyo. The building is a reinforced concrete high-rise residential complex building with 54 stories above ground, 4 basement levels, and a building height of about 220 m. It is a requirement to provide the highest grade of residence in Japan, and in terms of the structural design, it is required to provide wide and comfortable spaces with high seismic performance. These requirements are satisfied by providing a total of 774 vibration control walls of two types. Also, to further improve the structural performance, steel fibers at the rate of 1.0vol% are provided in the ultra-high strength concrete used in the column members.
