For a seismic design or performance evaluation of a structure, an experimental investigation on a scale model of the structure or numerical analysis based on the finite element model is considered. Regarding the numerical analysis, a three-dimensional finite element analysis is performed if a high accuracy of the results is required, while a sensitivity or fragility analysis which uses huge seismic ground motions leads to the use of a lumped-mass stick model. The conventional modeling technique to build the lumped-mass stick model calculates the amount of the lumped mass by considering the geometric shape of the structure, like a tributary area. However, the eigenvalues of the conventional model obtained through such a calculation are normally not the same as those of the actual structure. In order to overcome such a deficiency, in this study, a new lumped mass stick model is proposed. The model is named the "frequency adaptive-lumped-mass stick model." It provides the same eigenvalues and similar dynamic responses as the actual structure. A non-prismatic column is considered as an example, and its natural frequencies as well as the dynamic performance of the new lumped model are compared to those of the full-finite element model. To investigate the damping effect on the new model, 1% to 5% of the critical damping ratio is applied to the model and the corresponding results are also compared to those of the finite element model.

In the seismic designing of bridges, the pile foundation of bridge piers generally have been modeled to have a fixed end for its convenience and conservative designing. The fixed-end assumption, however, produces very conservative results in terms of the pier forces. Therefore, many other design methods are evolved to consider the flexibility of the pile foundation. In this study, the response spectrum analysis was performed for a bridge pier having a pile foundation. The shear force, moment, and displacement, which occurred at the pier column under an earthquake loading, were compared to analyze the effects of the modeling method, soil condition and the input earthquake response spectrum. In most cases, the fixed-end model gives larger design forces than flexible foundation models. However, when a long period earthquake is applied to the bridge pier on a soft clay foundation, it is found that the flexible foundation models give larger design forces than the fixed-end model. In the end, the reliability of several flexible foundation models was verified by comparing their results with those of a numerical analysis that considers the soil-structure interaction phenomenon in a rigorous manner.

The dynamic interactions between the reactor vessel and the control element drive mechanisms (CEDMs) of a pressurized water reactor are studied with the simplified mathematical model. The CEDMs are modeled as multiple substructures having different masses and the reactor vessel as a single degree of freedom system. The explicit equation for the frequency responses of the multiple substructure system are presented for the case of harmonic base excitations. The optimum dynamic characteristics of the CEDMs are presented to reduce the dynamic responses of the reactor vessel. The mathematical model and its response equations are verified by finite element analysis for the detailed model of the reactor vessel and the CEDMs for the harmonic base excitations. It is finally shown that the optimal dynamic characteristics of the CEDM presented can be applicable for the aseismic design.

Numerical model became one of most important tools for identifying the state of an existing structure in accordance with development of numerical analysis techniques. A numerical model should be updated based on the measured responses from the existing structure to accurately use the model for identifying the state of the bridge and executing numerical experiments. In this study, a new model updating method based on repetition method without a differential function is introduced and applicability for high speed railway bridge is verified with dynamic stability analysis. A fine measurement based on measurement points roaming method was executed with an wireless measurement system for precise dynamic characteristic analysis. The natural frequencies and mode shapes were estimated by correlation analysis and a mode decomposition technique. An initial numerical model was constructed based on design drawings and the model have been updated in accordance with the introduced model updating method. The results from numerical experiment and field test have been compared for verifying the applicability of the model updating method. And the dynamic stability analysis has been executed to verify the usability of the updated numerical model and the model updating method. It seems that the model updating method can be used for various bridges after evaluation of applicability for other type bridges in further studies.

A mathematical model is developed for determination of the dynamic cutting force from static cutting data. The dynamic cutting force is analytically expressed by the static cutting coefficient and the dynamic cutting coefficient which can be determined from the cutting mechanics. The proposed model is verified by the chatter stability charts. A good agreement was shown between the stability limits predicted by the theory and the critical width of cut determined by experiments. The static cutting coefficient dominates high speed chatter stability, while the dynamic cutting coefficient dominates low speed chatter stability.

In this study, an analysis of the thermo-fluid dynamic and missile-motion performance was carried out through a numerical simulation inside the missile canister. Calculation was made in an analytical volume using dynamic grid and evaporated water was used as a coolant. To analyze the interaction among the hot gas, coolant, and mixture flow, Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence and VOF (Volume Of Fluid) model were chosen and a parametric study was performed with the change of coolant flow rate. As a result of the analysis, pressure of the canister showed a large difference depending on the presence or absence of the coolant, and also showed a dependancy on the amount of coolant. Velocity and acceleration were dependent on the canister pressure.

The present paper investigates methods to control dynamic stall using an optimal approach. An unsteady aerodynamic sensitivity analysis code is developed by a direct differentiation method from a two-dimensional unsteady compressible Navier-Stokes solver including a two-equation turbulence model. Dynamic stall control is conducted by minimizing an objective function defined at an instant instead of integrating for a period of time. Unsteady sensitivity derivatives of the objective function are calculated by the sensitivity code, and optimization is carried out using a linear line search method at every physical time step. Numerous examples of dynamic stall control using control parameters such as nose radius, maximum thickness of airfoil, or suction show satisfactory results.

Using isogeometric analysis(IGA) gives more accurate results for higher order mode in eigenvalue problem than using the finite element method(FEM). This is because the FEM has $C^0$ continuity between elements, whereas IGA guarantee $C^{P-1}$ between elements for p-th order basis functions. In this paper, a mode based reduced model is constructed by using IGA and dynamic behavior analysis is performed using this advantage. Craig-Bampton(CB) method is applied to construct the reduced model. Several numerical examples were performed to compare the eigenvalue analysis results for various order of element basis function by applying the IGA and FEM to simple rod analysis. We have confirmed that numerical error increases in the higher order mode as the continuity between elements decreases in the IGA by allowing internal knots multiplicity. The accuracy of the solution can be improved by using the IGA with high inter-element continuity when high-frequency external force acts on the reduced model for dynamic behavior analysis.

본 논문에서는 먼저 흥인지문에 대해 상시진동실험을 수행하고, 그 데이터를 분석하여 흥인지문의 고유진동수, 모드, 감쇠비의 특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과로부터 흥인지문의 병진모드를 파악하였고, 병진모드에서 측정한 여러 기둥의 모드 상대크기와 위상이 동일함을 확인하였다. 저차 병진모드에서 모든 기둥이 같은 방향으로 강성을 발휘하기 때문에 각층의 강성을 합한 등가의 층강성을 가지는 2자유도의 동적강체해석모델을 제시하였다. 이 해석모델은 선형 범위 내에서 거동한다는 것으로 가정하여 층강성을 산정하였다. 실제 흥인지문의 접합부에는 부재간의 이음과 맞춤에 의한 마찰력이 작용한다. 접합부를 누르는 무거운 지붕하중에 의해 이 마찰력은 증가하게 되고, 이로써 횡하중에 저항하게 된다. 이러한 접합부에 강한 횡하중이 작용하게 되면, 접합부의 이완 및 마찰력의 저하 등으로 인하여 횡강성의 저하가 급격히 일어나는 비선형 특성을 갖게 된다. 이러한 흥인지문의 비선형적인 특성을 파악하기 위해 흥인지문 해석모델에 쿨롱 마찰력을 도입하여 비선형적인 해석모델을 제시하였다.

강재 교각을 갖는 고가교량은 상부구조가 매우 큰 질량을 갖는 거대구조가 되고 규모가 큰 지진운동 하에서 대단히 큰 관성력을 받게 된다. 따라서 탄소성 동적응답 해석에 의해서 강재 교각의 지진거동을 파악하는 것이 필요하다 . 본 연구에서는, 탄소성 동적응답해석을 위한 합리적인 수치해석방법을 제시하고 이를 바탕으로 강재 교각에 대한 내진성 평가를 수행한다. 1995년 고베 지진 시 손상을 받은 강재 교각과 그 이후 재구축된 교각을 모델로 해서 국부좌굴 이전 소성화의 영향만을 고려한 강재 교각의 지진 거동을 파악한다. 입력지진파는 고베 지진시 관측된 Takatori 지진파이고 이를 가속도 진폭 조정하여 사용한다.
