A steady prediction method is presented to compute dynamic damping coefficients for axisymmetric projectiles. Viscous flow analysis is essential to the steady method using a zero-spin coning motion in the inertial coordinate frame. The present method is applied to compute the pitching moment and the pitch-damping moment coefficients for the Army-Navy Spinning Rocket. The results are in good agreement with the parabolized Navier-Stokes data, range data, and unsteady prediction data. Predictions for Secant-Ogive-Cylinder configurations are performed to investigate effects of afterbody geometries. To investigate the geometrical effect and flow physics, the longitudinal developments of the coefficients are examined in detail.

A steady prediction method of dynamic stability derivatives is presented in the unified framework of the unsteady Euler equations. New approach does not require any modification of the governing equations except addition of non-inertial force terms. The present methods are applied to compute the pitch-damping coefficients using the lunar coning and the lunar helical motions in the Cartesian coordinate frame. The results for the ANSR and the Basic Finner are in good agreement with the PNS data, range data, and the results using the unsteady prediction method. The results show that the steady approach using the unified governing equations in the Cartesian coordinate frame can be successfully applied to predict the pitch-damping coefficients.

The present works are the experimental results of the study to develope a damping flexible coupling which has a high performance of control for the torsional vibrations of power shafts in a large machinery. The damping flexible coupling is manufactured and is compared for dynamic characteristics with other type coupling which is the Geislinger coupling. The static coefficient of stiffness and the damping coefficient allows the control of excitation frequency through a cam driver. The experimental results obtained from the two couplings are compared with the theoretically results.

Existing studies have suggested Universal Curve only for supplemental damping by damper. Therefore net damping has been determined by means of arithmetic summation between intrinsic, aero-damping of cable and supplemental damping of damper. However linear combination approach by means of the arithmetic summation is not enough theoretical background. So validity of this approach should be verified in order to design adequate cable-damper system by engineers. This study establishes governing differential equation which can consider intrinsic, aero-damping and supplemental damping as well. And also analysis method is solved by combination of muller method and successive iteration method. Consequently, this study succeeds in verification for validity of linear combination approach. As a result of this study, linear combination approach is limitedly effective in case of low stiffness and optimum damping coefficient of damper, short distance from support to damper, lower vibration mode, low aero-damping, and normal windy environment. Whereas this study will be effective in case of opposite conditions, and existing studies or linear combination approach occur to further error. Meaning of this study presents exact solution for net damping of cable-damper system, and verifies linear combination approach by means of the analysis method. In the future, if monitoring of optimum damping coefficient of a damper against aero-damping is feasible on time, algorithm of this study will be available for control of cable and semi-active damper system such as magneto-rheological damper.

The purpose of this study is to determine the equivalent energy of a 6MV X-ray beam in the experiment. The half-value layer (HVL) of lead for the 6 MV X-ray beam was measured using an ionization chamber. The linear attenuation coefficients were calculated with HVL. And, the mass attenuation coefficient was obtained by dividing the linear attenuation coefficient by the density of lead. The equivalent energy of mass attenuation coefficient was determined using the photon energy versus mass attenuation coefficient data of lead given by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In conclusion, the equivalent energy of the 6 MV X-ray beam was determined to be 1.61 MeV. This equivalent energy was determined to be about 30% lower than reported by Reft. The reason is presumed to be due to the presence of an air cavity between the lead attenuators.

Ground dynamic parameter such as shear elastic modulus and damping ratio is a very important variable in design of ground-structure with repeated load and dynamic load. Shear elastic modulus and damping ratio on small strain below linear limit strain is constant regardless of strain. Shear elastic modulus as the maximum shear elastic modulus and damping ratio as the minimum damping ratio were considered. As a lot of experiment related to the maximum shear elastic modulus, which is in dynamic deformation characteristics, have been conducted, many factors including voiding ratio, over consolidation ratio(OCR), confining pressure, geology time, PI, and the number of load cycle affect to dynamic soil characteristic. However, the research of ground dynamic characteristic improved with grout is absent such as underground continuous wall construction, deep mixing method, umbrella arch method. In order to investigate the dynamic soil characteristics improved with grout, in this study, resonant column tests were performed with changing water content(20%, 25%, 30%) and injection ratio of grout(5%, 10%, 15%), cure time(7th day, 28th day) As a result, shear elastic modulus and damping ratio, which are ground dynamic parameter, are affected by the injection ratio of milk grout, cure time and water content.

본 논문에서는 MR 감쇠기의 비선형 특성을 등가의 선형감쇠로 치환하기 위한 방법으로 Newmark와 Hall이 제안한 감쇠계수를 이용하였다. 응답스펙트럼의 감쇠율을 나타내는 감쇠기계수는 구조물의 최대변위를 이용하여 등가감쇠비를 추출할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 하지만 이러한 응답스펙트럼은 구조물에 작용하는 지진하중의 특성에 따라 경향이 달라진다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 등가감쇠비 산정식을 수정하여 제안하고, 지진하중 특성에 따른 등가감쇠비의 변화를 살펴보았다. MR 감쇠기의 등가감쇠비는 가진하중과 최대마찰력의 비율에 따라 결정되며, 장주기 구조물의 경우 등가감쇠비가 감소한다. MR 감쇠기의 점성은 마찰감쇠와의 상호작용에 의해 단순한 산술합 이상의 감쇠비 증가 효과를 가진다.

This paper is a study on the evaluation of loss factor of damping treatment materials to reduce the noise and vibration for panels of railway vehicles and automobiles. In order to determine the modal parameters of damping materials, beam excitation tests were carried out using different type PVC coated aluminum and steel base beam specimens. The specimens were excited from 10 Hz to 1000 Hz frequency range using sinusoidal force, and transfer mobility data were measured by using an accelerometer. The loss factors were determined by using integrated program, based on theories of Half Power Method, Minimum Tangent Error Method, Minimum Angle Error Method and Phase Change Method, which enable to evaluate the parameters using modal circle fit and least squares error method. In the case of lower loss factor and data of linear characteristics, any method could be applied for evaluation of parameters, however the case of higher loss factor or data including non-linear characteristics, the minimum angle error method could reduce the loss factor evaluation. The obtained dynamic properties of the coating material could be used for application of Finite Element Method analyzing the noise control effects of complex structures such as carbody or under-floor boxes of rolling stock. The damping material will be very useful to control the structural noise, because the obtained modal loss factors of each mode show very good effect on over $2^{nd}$ mode frequency range.

씨일의 표면마찰계수 특성이 씨일의 동특성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 씨일내의 유속이 증가함에 따라서 마찰계수가 급상승하는 허니콤 씨일을 대상으로 이론적 해석을 하였다. 그 결과 마찰계수의 급상승 현상은 마찰계수의 급상승 현상이 없는 경우에 비하여 강성계수의 감소를 야기하고 회전축-베어링계의 불안정성과 관계가 있는 연성 강성계수의 큰 감소를 보였다. 또한 회전축-베어링계의 안정성을 도모하는 감쇠 계수의 증가를 야기함으로써 회전기계의 운전점이 마찰계수의 급상승 범위에 있다면 시스템의 안정성면에서 매우 유리할 것으로 사료된다. 마찰계수의 급상승 현상을 보이는 허니콤 씨일의 동특성에 대한 이론적 해석 결과, 강성계수는 매우 작게 예측되었으나 연성강성계수와 감쇠계수는 비교적 실험결과와 근사함을 보였다.

Coastal water including estuaries has distinctive environmental characteristics where sediments are transported and deposited by flowing river water, providing an environment in which fluid mud layers can be formed. Acoustic method is mostly used to detect or monitor the fluid mud layer. However, since sound propagating in this layer suffers severe attenuation, it is important to estimate the accurate attenuation coefficient for various concentrations of fluid mud layer for the successful use of the acoustic method. In this paper, measurement results of attenuation coefficient for 3.5, 5, and 7.5 MHz ultrasounds were presented. The measurements were made in a small-size water tank in which suspended sediment samples with various sediment concentrations were formed using kaolinite powder. The results were compared to the model predictions obtained by attenuation coefficient model in which the mean grain size (called as Mass-median-diameter, D50) was used as input parameter. There were reasonable agreements between measured attenuation coefficients and model outputs predicted using the particle range of D50 ${\pm}20%$. The comparison results imply that although the suspended sediments consist of various-sized particles, sound attenuation might be greatly influenced by amount of particle with a size which has a larger attenuation than that of any particle in the suspended sediments for the frequency used.
