기계시스템의 비선형특성 해석을 위하여 여러가지 방법이 활용되고 있는데, 이들은 Nyquist 선도의 찌그러짐(distortion), Hilbert 변환, 복원력면(restoring force surface), NARMAX, 고차 주파수응답함수(higher order frequency response function), DPE(direct parameter estimation)를 이용한 방법등이다. 이들중 고차 FRF(frequency response function)는 그 개념이 선형시스템의 FRF와 유사하여 비선형시스템의 해석방법으로서 주목을 받고 있으나 아직은 고차 FRF의 특성에 대한 이론적 연구 단계이고, 고차 FRF로부터 비선형특성을 정량적으로 해석하는 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 다항식으로 표시되는 비선형성을 갖는 시스템이 정현파가진을 받을 때 그 응답의 가진주파수 성분은 가진력진폭과 고차 FRF의 무한급수로 나타낼 수 있다. 가진력의 진폭을 변화시켜가며 응답을 측정하고, 고차항을 무시하면 고차 FRF의 값을 근사적으로 구할 수 있다. 고차 FRF는 비선형 시스템의 매개변수의 식으로 나타낼 수 있으므로 이로부터 비선형 매개변수를 추정할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비선형강성과 비선형감쇠를 갖는 1자유도 시뮬레이션 시스템에 이 매개변수 추정법을 각각 적용함으로써 이 방법의 가능성을 고찰하였다.

Numerical analysis of shear walls governed by flexural behavior is conducted for the seismic control performance of proposed friction dampers installed at the center of coupling beams. Control effectiveness of shear walls connected by beams with the proposed dampers are compared for single shear wall with same flexural rigidity. Average responses of the shear walls with the dampers are found with seven scaled-downed earthquakes based on KEC 2005 design spectrum. Slip load is the most important design parameter. It is designed to be 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, 90% of total vertical shear force at damper location to prevent damper slip in specific stories. Nonlinear time-history analysis is conducted by using SeismoStruct analysis program. Seismic control performance of the dampers is evaluated for base shear, energy dissipation, curvature and top-floor displacement. Results show that the dampers are the most effective in reducing the responses when their total slip load is 30% of total vertical shear force.

The purpose of this paper is to analytically find the approximate supplement damping ratio of the viscous damper installed in self-centering (SC) single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) systems with maximum displacements that are similar to those of elasto-plastic (EP) SDOF systems. The behavior of an SC SDOF system under harmonic cyclic loading was first described. Then an analytical model that can capture the behavior of the viscously damped SC SDOF system was introduced. Analysis parameters that characterize the hysteresis of the EP and SC SDOF systems were chosen, and nonlinear time-history analyses were performed using 20 historical accelerograms. Most of the SC SDOF systems with viscous dampers with approximately 10-15% damping ratios presented mean maximum displacement values that were similar to those of the EP SDOF systems. To investigate in detail the seismic performance of both systems, three EP SDOF systems and six corresponding SC SDOF systems were selected. The analyses showed that all the SC SDOF systems eliminated the residual displacements after the end of their shaking, and that the SC SDOF systems with 15% damping ratios performed better than the EP SDOF systems in terms of maximum displacement and acceleration response.

In this paper, the performance of a toggle brace-MR damper system is evaluated for the control of the structure excited by earthquake load and the non-linearity of the toggle system is investigated. Considering that the control force of MR damper described by Bingham model is a function of velocity, velocity amplification factor by the toggle brace system is calculated and the effect of toggle configuration on the amplification factor is also evaluated. Numerical results show that the control performance can be largely enhanced using toggle brace system especially for the case that the MR damper installed with conventional brace system such as Chevron and diagonal cannot provide enough control force under severe earthquake load.

Many engineering researches are performed to ensuring structural safety from earthquake. In this study, the damping capacity of LRB(lead rubber bearing) with high lead-plug area ratio was examined by hysteresis loop from experiments. The displacement controlled tests were performed for 12 specimens designed in 2 types by lead-plug area ratio as main parameter. Each coupled specimens were tested by 3 times sinusoidal loads with different loading velocities. From the experimental results, LRB with high lead-plug area ratio has sufficient damping ratio for reducing horizontal seismic load to structures.

The optimal seismic retrofitting of NPP(Nuclear Power Plant) cabinet structures that contain seismic category 1 relays was studied in this paper. During earthquake event, the failure modes of relays are not appeared in form of structural failure, but are appeared in form of contact chatter of relay. Therefore, the retrofitting of cabinet has to be aimed at the reducing of the structural response, such as acceleration. In this study, the optimal characteristic values of dampers were searched by ${\mu}$-GA (micro-Genetic Algorithm) scheme for several installation patterns. To keep accuracy and efficiency of analysis, the structural models of cabinet were considered as a frame structure. The responses of structure were obtained inform of acceleration response spectra derived from the results of nonlinear time history analysis including damping nonlinearity. The objective function of the optimum procedure was constructed based on the maximum ratio of maximum spectral value and target GERS (General Equipment Ruggedness Spectra). The results show the good improvements of fitness for adequate retrofitting pattern. Especially, the improvements of fitness were remarkable when the values of damping exponents are low.

The complexity of determining strain associated with shear modulus and damping ratio in torsional tests has been resolved by means of several approaches. Particularly, the modified equivalent radius approach is adequate to when generating the plots of equivalent radius ratio versus strain more effectively over any range of strains in resonant column and torsional shear (RC/TS) tests. The modified equivalent radius approach was applied for hyperbolic, modified hyperbolic, and Ramberg-Osgood models in evaluating damping ratio. Results showed that using a single value of equivalent radius ratio based on conventional equivalent radius approach is not appropriate. A new model was developed to consider the soil damping behavior at small strains as well as hysteretic damping and it was attempted to determine adjustments are required in evaluating strain associated damping when combining the two damping components.
