In this thesis, to compensate the sweep nonlinearity occurring in the high resolution radar system using FMICW or FMCW, the method of the estimation of the nonlinearity is proposed. The nonlinear phase component caused by the nonlinear characteristic of the radar system is modelled as a linear combination of the sinusoidal functions consisting of various magnitudes and phases(systematic nonlinear phase error) and a random component(stochastic nonlinear phase error). From two IF signals that are measured respectively independently for two reference point targets lying in different distances which are known, a sparse linear equation is made and solved by least squares method to estimate the nonlinear phase component. The estimated component can be used for predistortion method to compensate the sweep nonlinearity.

A numerical method for nonlinear free-surface-wave problem is developed in this paper. The final goal of this study is to simulate the towing tank experiment of a ship model and to partially replace the experiment by the numerical model. The exact problem in the scope of potential flow theory is formulated by a variational principle based on the classical Hamilton's principle. A localized finite element method is used in the present numerical computations which made use of the following two notable steps. The first step is an efficient treatment of the numerical radiation condition by using the intermediate nonlinear-to-linear transition buffer subdomain between the fully nonlinear and linear subdomains. The second is the use of a modal analysis in the final stage of the solution procedures, which enables us to reduce the computation time drastically. With these improvements the present method can treat a much larger computational domain than that was possible previously. A pressure patch on the free surface was chosen as an example. From the present computed results we could investigate the effect of nonlinearity on the down-stream wave pattern more clearly than others, because much larger computational domain was treated. We found, specifically, the widening of the Kelvin angle and the increase of the wave numbers and the magnitude of wave profiles.

압밀현상에 따른 포화된 점토의 유전특성과 전기비저항 특성을 분석하기 위해서 전기적 측정이 가능한 Oedometer 압밀시험기를 준비하였다. 포화된 카올리나이트 시료에 대해서 실시한 압밀시험 결과, 압밀현상에 따른 직류 전기비저항과 1MHz (저주파대) 유전상수는 간극수의 소산에 따라 선형으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 점토의 전기비저항 특성은 압밀 현상 시 발생하는 흙의 함수량 및 공극비의 감소, 즉 흙의 구조적 특성에 의하여 변하는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 포화된 점토의 유전 특징은 불포화 점토와는 달리 흙 표면에서 발생하는 분극현상에 의하여 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다.

많은 자연계가 선형성과 비선형성을 동시에 포함한 카오스적인 모습을 보여준다 예를 들면 춤추는 불꽃, 부서지는 파도. 하늘에 떠다니는 무수한 구름 등 외관상으로는 불규칙해 보이는 듯 하면서 어떤 규칙성을 가진 다양한 모습을 나타낸다. 특히 공학분야에서는 거의 모든 현상이 비선형계로 이루어져 있다 이러한 비선형계의 해석에 카오스 이론이 적용될 수 있는데 최근 들어 카오스에 내재하는 질서구조가 밝혀짐에 따라 여러 공학분야에서 이를 활발히 응용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 카오스 이론에 대해 간단히 논하고 이러한 카오스 이론이 응용될 수 있는 분야를 공학적 측면에서 일목요연하게 정리하였다. 특히 전력계통 및 송배전설비 분야 중 GIS 상태감시 및 부분방전 검출기법에 대해서 시계열 데이터를 이용한 카오스 이론의 적용 가능성을 타진하였다.

We carry out a numerical calculation to understand the nonlinear wave deformation around breakwaters using the Boussinesq equation, which is weakly nonlinear and weakly dispersive shallow water equation. A numerical method based on a finite element scheme and fourth order Runge-Kutta algorithm is employed to investigate the diffraction of incident waves by the breakwater. As a computational model, two-dimensional wave flume is treated. The breakwaters is perpendicular to the side wall of a channel. From the numerical results, the wave deformations according to the change of the length and the thickness of breakwaters are investigated. We also investigate the effect of the nonlinearity by comparing the results with the linear solutions.

A one-dimensional site response analysis program (KODSAP) was developed using cyclic soil behavior model by using the modified parallel IWAN model. The model is able to predict the cyclic hardening and degradation of soil through the adjustment of the internal slip stresses of its elements beyond the cyclic threshold, and satisfies Bauschinger's effect and the Masing rule in terms of its own behavior characteristics. The program (KODSAP) used the direct integration method in the time domain. The elasticity of the base rock was considered as a viscous damper boundary condition. The effects of cyclic hardening or degradation of soil on site response analysis were evaluated through parametric studies. Three types of analyses were performed to compare the effect of analysis and cyclic parameter on site response. The first type was equivalent linear analysis, the second was nonlinear analysis, and a third was nonlinear analysis using the cyclic hardening or degradation model.

Phenomenological nonlinear gain saturation effect on the modulation characteristics in a multi-electrode DBR laser, when the lasing wavelength changes, continuously is analized theoretically. FM efficiency, 3 dB bandwidth, and resonance frequency decrease with increasing bias current to the passive section, except increasing the flat FM response. It is found that the nonlinear gain saturation effect severely affects the modulation characteristics such as FM/IM response, 3 dB bandwidth, resonance frequency and CPR, but hardly affects the behavior of continuous frequency tuning.

In this study, a nonlinear truss finite element is developed to analyze structures with negative Poisson effect-induced tensile buckling. In general, the well-known buckling phenomenon is a stability problem under a compressive load, whereas tensile buckling occurs because of local compression caused by tension. It is not as well-known as classical buckling because it is a recent study. The mechanism of tensile buckling can be briefly explained from an energy standpoint. The nonlinear truss finite element with a torsional spring is formulated because the finite element has not been reported in the literature yet. The post-buckling analysis is then performed using the generalized displacement control method, which reveals that the torsional spring plays an important role in tensile buckling. Structures that mimic a negative Poisson effect can be constructed using such post-buckling behaviors, and one of the possible applications is a mechanical switch. The results obtained are compared to those of analytical solutions and commercial finite element analysis to assess the validity of the proposed finite element model. The numerical results show that the developed finite element model could be a viable option for the basic design of nonlinear structures with a negative Poisson effect.

In this short note the characteristics of a nonlinear system of which the state trajectories are oscillating in the phase plane are overviewed. The physical concept of stuck and sliding patch phenomena are also introduced by adding some switching functions and their stability on the sliding patches are analyzed by using the Lyapunov stability theory and Frobenius theorem.
