Magnetic decreases are often observed in various regions of interplanetary space. Many studies are devoted to reveal the physical nature and generation mechanism of the magnetic decreases, but still we do not fully understand magnetic decreases. In this study, we investigate the structure of a magnetic decrease observed in a corotating interaction region using multi-spacecraft measurements. We use three spacecraft, ACE, Cluster, and Wind, which were widely separated in the x- and y-directions in the geocentric solar ecliptic (GSE) coordinates. The boundaries of the magnetic decrease are the same at the three locations and can be identified as tangential discontinuities. A notable feature is that the magnetic decrease has very large dimension, ≳ R_E, along the boundary, which is much larger than the size, ~ 6 R_E, along the normal direction. This suggests that the magnetic decrease has a shape of a long, thin rod or a wide slab.

This study investigates the effects of blade configuration and solidity of Darrieus wind turbine on the starting torque characteristics. Generally, the configuration of Darrieus wind turbine is divided into Troposkien, parabola, Catenary, Sandia, modified-parabola and straight types. A numerical analysis has been carried out using Multiple Stream Tube (MST) method to investigate the effect of blade configuration and solidity of Darrieus wind turbine on the starting torque under the initial low range of rotational speed. The simulation results show that the starting torque of Darrieus wind turbine varies considerably depending on the blade configuration. The initial starting torque was larger with Troposkien, Parabola, Catenary, and Sandia configurations than with modified parabola or straight types. The increase in solidity with increasing number of blades raised the starting torque and improved the dynamic stability during the initial operational speed of Darrieus wind turbine. Additionally, these torque results represent basic data for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulation of the steady-dynamic operation of the turbine.

This paper describes the use of coupled Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Rigid Body Dynamics (RBD) in modelling the aerodynamic behaviour of wind-borne plate type objects. Unsteady 2D and 3D Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) CFD models are used to simulate the unsteady and non-uniform flow field surrounding static, forced rotating, auto-rotating and free-flying plates. The auto-rotation phenomenon itself is strongly influenced by vortex shedding, and the realisable k-epsilon turbulence modelling approach is used, with a second order implicit time advancement scheme and equal or higher order advection schemes for the flow variables. Sequentially coupling the CFD code with a RBD solver allows a more detailed modelling of the Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) behaviour of the plate and how this influences plate motion. The results are compared against wind tunnel experiments on auto-rotating plates and an existing 3D analytical model.

해상풍력발전기는 주위를 항행하는 선박 및 바지선등과 같은 선박에 의한 충돌피해가 발생할 수 있기 때문에 이에 대한 안정성을 고려해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 선박충돌에 대해 안정성을 고려하기 위해 해상풍력발전기의 선박충돌해석을 수행하고 충돌하중의 불확실성을 고려하기 위해 충돌취약도를 분석하였다. 충돌해석은 해저지반-기초구조물의 상호작용 및 유체를 p-y곡선과 부가질량법으로 고려하였다. 충돌취약도는 선박의 중량과 충돌각, 선박흘수를 변동성으로 고려하여 항복응력에 대한 손상수준을 추정하였으며 취약도를 분석한 결과, 850ton 바지선과 30,000DWT 화물선의 충돌속도에 취약함을 확인하였다.

Lock-in and drag amplification phenomena are studied for a flexible cantilever using a simplified fluid-structure interaction approach. Instead of solving the 3D domain, a simplified setup is devised, in which 2D flow problems are solved on a number of planes parallel to the wind direction and transversal to the structure. On such planes, the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved to estimate the fluid action at different positions of the line-like structure. The fluid flow on each plane is coupled with the structural deformation at the corresponding position, affecting the dynamic behaviour of the system. An Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach is used to take in account the deformation of the domain, and a fractional-step scheme is used to solve the fluid field. The stabilization of incompressibility and convection is achieved through orthogonal quasi-static subscales, an approach that is believed to provide a first step towards turbulence modelling. In order to model the structural problem, a special one-dimensional element for thin walled cross-section beam is implemented. The standard second-order Bossak method is used for the time integration of the structural problem.

A design methodology for control strategy and control structure gives a direct impact on wind turbine's performance and life cycle. A baseline control law which is a variable rotor speed and variable pitch control strategy is introduced, and a mathematic performance model of a wind turbine dynamics is derived. By using a numeric optimization algorithm, the steady state operating conditions of wind turbines are identified. Because aerodynamic interaction of winds with rotor blades is basically nonlinear, a linearization procedure is applied to analyze wind turbine dynamic variations for whole operating conditions. It turns out the wind turbine dynamics vary much depending on its operating condition.

Structures designed for wind have an opposite design approach to those designed for earthquakes. These structures are usually reliable if they are constructed in an area where there is almost no or less severe earthquake. However, as seismic activity is unpredictable and it can occur anytime and anywhere, the seismic safety of structures designed for wind must be assessed. Moreover, the design approaches of wind and earthquake systems are opposite where wind design considers higher stiffness but earthquake designs demand a more flexible structure. For this reason, a novel Machine learning framework is proposed that is used to assess and classify the seismic safety of the structures designed for wind load. Moreover, suitable criteria is defined for the design of wind resistance structures considering seismic behavior. Furthermore, the structural behavior as a result of dynamic interaction between superstructure and substructure during seismic events is also studied. The proposed framework achieved an accuracy of more than 90% for classification and prediction as well, when applied to new structures and unknown ground motions.

본 연구는 폭설 및 강풍 시 조립식 비닐하우스의 구조안정성을 해석하였으며, 내재해 규격 중 가장 엄격한 기준인 적설량 40 cm, 풍속 40m/s를 재해 기준으로 고려하여 적설 하중 및 풍 하중이 비닐하우스 구조에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 풍 하중의 경우, 공기역학적 특성에 의해 비닐하우스의 형상에 따른 국부적인 압력 분포 특성이 상이하기 때문에 유체-고체연성 해석 기법을 적용하였다. 적설하중 및 풍하중 해석 결과에서 비닐하우스 하단지지 파이프와 지붕서까래 체결 부분 근처에서 가장 큰 응력 및 변형이 발생하며, 적설 하중에 비해 풍 하중 시 구조 안정성이 다소 취약함을 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구 결과를 기반으로 지지 파이프의 변형을 최소화 하면서 설치 및 유지보수가 용이한 조립식 연결 클립 설계를 위한 기초자료로 활용할 예정이다.

최근 국내에서 건설되고 있는 주거건물과 주상복합건물은 단일건물보다는 다수의 건물군으로 구성되어 있는 경우가 많다. 단일건물의 경우도 환기 및 채광성을 비롯한 외관상의 문제와 상업성을 고려하여 하층부는 하나의 건물로 이루어지고 중 상층부로 갈수록 두개의 건물로 나누어져 두개의 동이 하나의 건물로 구성되어 있는 건축물이 많이 건설되고 잇는 추세이다. 이와 같이 높고 세장하며 복잡한 건축물은 질량과 감쇠가 낮을 뿐만 아니라 바람에 의한 건물군 사이의 상호작용효과 등에 의해 구조적인 안전성과 사용성은 풍하중에 의해 결정되어진다. 그러나 현재 다수의 건물군으로 이루어진 건축물의 구조설계시 인접한 동사이의 상호작용 효과에 대해 규명되어 있지 못하며 또한 그 상호작용 효과를 예측하기란 어려운 일이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 현존하거나 현재 건설중에 있는 두 개동을 가진 건축물의 현황을 파악하여 그 패턴을 모델화 한 후, 풍동실험(wind tunnel test)을 통해 두 개의 동 사이의 인동거리에 따른 풍응답 상호작용 효과를 가속도응답을 중심으로 비교분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과로부터 건물군에 대한 풍응답 상호작용효과의 기초적 자료를 제시할 것이며 나아가 좀더 합리적이고 경제적인 구조설계를 위한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Considering a rigorously fluid-structure interaction, a method for an earthquake response analysis of a floating offshore structure subjected to vertical ground motion from a seaquake is developed. Mass, damping, stiffness, and hydrostatic stiffness matrices of the floating offshore structure are obtained from a finite-element model. The sea water is assumed to be a compressible, nonviscous, ideal fluid. Hydrodynamic pressure, which is applied to the structure, from the sea water is assessed using its finite elements and transmitting boundary. Considering the fluid-structure interaction, added mass and force from the hydrodynamic pressure is obtained, which will be combined with the numerical model for the structure. Hydrodynamic pressure in a free field subjected to vertical ground motion and due to harmonic vibration of a floating massless rigid circular plate are calculated and compared with analytical solutions for verification. Using the developed method, the earthquake responses of a floating offshore structure subjected to a vertical ground motion from the seaquake is obtained. It is concluded that the earthquake responses of a floating offshore structure to vertical ground motion is severely influenced by the compressibility of sea water.
