Within this paper a new approach for early damage detection in rotor blades of wind energy converters is presented, which is shown to have a more sensitive reaction to damage than eigenfrequency-based methods. The new approach is based on the extension of Gasch's proportionality method, according to which maximum oscillation velocity and maximum stress are proportional by a factor, which describes the dynamic behavior of the structure. A change in the proportionality factor can be used as damage indicator. In addition, a novel deflection sensor was developed, which was specifically designed for use in wind turbine rotor blades. This deflection sensor was used during the experimental tests conducted for the measurement of the blade deflection. The method was applied on numerical models for different damage cases and damage extents. Additionally, the method and the sensing concept were applied on a real 50.8 m blade during a fatigue test in the edgewise direction. During the test, a damage of 1.5 m length was induced on the upper trailing edge bondline. Both the initial damage and the increase of its length were successfully detected by the decrease of the proportionality factor. This decrease coincided significantly with the decrease of the factor calculated from the numerical analyses.

Numerical analysis of static and dynamic wind effects on civil engineering structures was performed. Long-span suspension bridges are flexible structures that are highly sensitive to the action of the wind. Aerodynamic effect often becomes a governing factor in the design process of bridges and aeroelastic stability boundary becomes a prime criterion which should be confirmed during the structural design stage of bridges because the long-span suspension bridges are prone to the aerodynamic instabilities caused by wind. If the wind velocity exceeds the critical velocity that the bridge can withstand, then the bridge fails due to the phenomenon of flutter. Buffeting caused by turbulence results in structural fatigue, which could lead to the failure of a bridge. Navier-Stokes equations are used for the aeroelastic analysis of bridge girder section. The aeroelastic simulation is carried out to study the aeroelastic stability of bridges using both Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) and Computational Structural Dynamic (CSD) schemes.

The paper presents results of studies concerning wind-induced aeolian vibration and fatigue of a 110 kV covered conductor overhead line. Self-damping measurement techniques are discussed: power method is found to be the most reliable technique. A method for compensating tension variations during the self-damping test is presented. Generally used empirical self-damping power models are enhanced and the different models are compared with each other. The Energy Balance Analysis (EBR) is used to calculate the aeolian vibration amplitudes, which thereafter are converted to bending stress for the calculation of conductor lifetime estimate. The results of EBA are compared with field measurements, Results indicate that adequate lifetime estimates are produced by EBA as well as field measurements. Generally the EBA gives more conservative lifetime expectancy. This is believed to result from the additional damping existing in true suspension structures not taken into account by EBA. Finally, the correctness of the line design is verified using Cigre's safe design tension approach.

Wind-induced oscillations are known to cause damage to the conductors and related hardware through fatigue, clashing of the bundled conductors and bolt loosening. Wake-induced oscillations have been known since the advent of bundled conductors, they are caused by aerodynamically unstable forces acting on the leeward conductors in the wake of the windward conductors, They take the form of horizontal galloping, snaking or rolling, in which case all subconductors move together in unison. They can also take the form of the subspan oscillation, which appear as elliptical motions of the subconductors moving out of phase, mainly in the horizontal plane within a subspan. In order to decrease amplitudes of the oscillation, this paper examines the application status of the spacer dampers and suggests proper installation methods.

본 논문은 송전선로 갤러핑 현상 분석을 위해 요구되는 비대칭 송전선의 공기력 계수 측정에 관한 것으로, 세 종류의 비대칭 단면으로 구성된 단도체, 2도체 및 4도체 모형에 대해서 난류 조건에서의 풍동실험을 수행하였다. 송전선로 갤러핑은 비대칭의 착빙된 송전선에 안정된 바람이 작용하는 경우 발생하는 유체유발진동의 한 종류로, 상간 이격거리와 송전탑 하중의 계산 등 송전선의 설계시 고려해야하는 주요 인자 중 하나이다. 갤러핑에 의해 발생하는 반복적인 변동 하중은 송전선을 포함한 체결 부품 등에 큰 동응력을 발생시키는 것을 고려하여, 송전선을 비롯한 각종 부품은 마모와 피로손상에 견딜 수 있는 충분한 내구성을 가져야 한다. 국내에서도 빙설해에 의한 송전선로의 고장은 급격한 전압 강하로 인한 전기 품질에 큰 영향을 끼치는 주요 원인이 되고 있으며, 매년 약 20건 이상씩 발생하고 있는 점을 고려해, 안정적인 전력 공급과 유지, 보수 비용을 절감하기 위해서 갤러핑 현상에 대해서 기초부터 체계적인 접근이 요구되고 있다.

본 연구에서는 주 케이블에 횡방향 새그를 가진 자정식 현수교의 내풍안정성을 검토하기 위하여 풍동실험을 수행하고, 주형의 거동을 중심으로 그 결과를 분석하였다. 등류와 난류하에서 수행한 부분 모형 실험에서 가장 내풍안정성이 뛰어난 단면을 최종단면으로 선정하고, 전교 모형 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 또한 차후 연구를 위한 플러터 계수를 측정하여 제시하였다. 교량의 사용성과 피로문제를 검토하기 위하여 버페팅 응답을 조사하였지만, 공학적 관점에서 만족할 만한 수준인 것으로 나타났다. 주형의 항력계수가 상당히 큼에도 불구하고 횡방향 변위가 매우 작게 나타났는데, 이는 주 케이블의 횡방향 새그가 주형의 변위를 구속하기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

The structural integrity of tube bundles represents a major concern when dealing with high risk industries, such as nuclear steam generators, where the rupture of a tube or tubes will lead to the undesired mixing of the primary and secondary fluids. Flow-induced vibration is one of the major concerns that could compromise the structural integrity. The vibration is caused by fluid flow excitation. While there are several excitation mechanisms that could contribute to these vibrations, fluidelastic instability is generally regarded as the most severe. When this mechanism prevails, it could cause serious damage to tube arrays in a very short period of time. The tubes are therefore stiffened by means of supports to avoid these vibrations. To accommodate the thermal expansion of the tube, as well as to facilitate the installation of these tube bundles, clearances are allowed between the tubes and their supports. Progressive tube wear and chemical cleaning gradually increases the clearances between the tubes and their supports, which can lead to more frequent and severe tube/support impact and rubbing. These increased impacts can lead to tube damage due to fatigue and/or wear at the support locations. This paper presents simulations of a loosely supported multi-span U-bend tube subjected to turbulence and fluidelastic instability forces. The mathematical model for the loosely-supported tubes and the fluidelastic instability model is presented. The model is then utilized to simulate the nonlinear response of a U-bend tube with flat bar supports subjected to cross-flow. The effect of the support clearance as well as the support offset are investigated. Special attention is given to the tube/support interaction parameters that affect wear, such as impact and normal work rate.

사장교에 사용되는 팽팽한 경사 케이블은 풍우현상에 의하여 진동에 쉽게 노출된다. 더욱이 보편적으로 알려진 풍우현상 이외의 이상현상에 의한 과도한 진동이 발생할 여지도 항상 존재한다. 급증한 동적변위는 케이블과 보호관에 과도한 인장력을 발생시키고 정착구와 댐퍼에 피로손상을 발생시키며 보강형의 설계에서 고려하지 않았던 추가적인 전단력 변화를 발생시킨다. 본 연구는 사장 케이블의 자유장에 발생된 동적변위에 의한 케이블의 동적장력 변화와 보강형의 전단력 변화를 분석 할 수 있는 해석적인 기법을 기술하고, 이로 인해 발생될 수 있는 사장교의 동적문제를 간략히 언급한다. 이것을 실현시키기 위해 사장 케이블이 진동하여 법선방향 변위를 발생시킬 때 나타나는 변화를 현방향 장력과 법선방향 장력으로 분리하여 물리적인 현상을 미분방정식으로 표현한 후 전개한 해를 풍우현상에 적용하여 케이블의 동적장력 변화와 보강형의 전단력 변화를 산정하였다. 주목할 것으로 CIP Recommendations(2002)에서 제시하는 방법론에 본 연구의 일부사항을 반영하여 산정하면 본 연구와 매우 유사한 결과를 제시하지만 CIP Recommendations에서 제시하는 방법론을 그대로 따라서 산정하면 10% 이상의 오차를 제시함을 확인하였다. 이것은 국제적으로 활용도가 매우 높은 설계지침에서 조차도 본 연구에서 논의하는 주제에 관한 조치가 없었음을 의미하는 것이다. 여기에 관한 검증은 사장 케이블의 진동형상을 만족하도록 외적하중을 재하시킨 탄성현수선 요소를 이용한 유한요소해석을 통하여 수행하였다.
