To a series of vibration records obtained from experimental modal testing using a fixed hammer and roving accelerometers for greenhouse arch structures, modal parameters such as natural frequencies, damping ratios and mode shapes are extracted by applying the two most advanced system identification methods in the frequency-domain up to now, so-called PolyMAX and FDD. The former involves both input and output data, while the latter utilizes only the output data. The possibility of determining the static buckling load, detecting damages, etc., for very slender steel-pipe arches by means of a non-destructive testing method based on vibration measurements is primarily investigated. The extracted modal parameters generally correlated well with those obtained using finite element analysis, demonstrating promising results for further on-going research.

본 연구에서는 PZT를 이용한 Bimorph Cantilever형 진동센서의 동특성을 모달해석하고 이를 압전세라믹의 센서방정식과 연계하여 센서출력의 정밀해를 구하였다. 그리고 이론식에 대한 시간응답 특성 및 주파수응답 특성을 알아보고 각각의 특성을 만족시키기 위한 센서의 최적설계 기법을 컴퓨터 Simulation을 통하여 알아보았다. 그리고 PZT를 이용한 Bimorph Cantilever형 진동센서를 직접 제작하고 그 실험적 데이터를 수식적 데이터와 비교하여 이론식의 타당성을 검증하였다.

To determine the static buckling loads and evaluate the structural performance of slender steel pipe-arches such as for greenhouse structures, a series of modal tests using a fixed hammer and roving sensors was carried out, by providing no load, then a range of vertical loads, on an arch rib in several steps. More attention was given to an internal arch where vertical and horizontal auxiliary members are not placed, unlike an end arch. Modal parameters such as natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratios were extracted using more advanced system identification methods such as PolyMAX (Polyreference Least-Squares Complex Frequency Domain), and compared with those predicted by commercial FEA (Finite Element Analysis) software ANSYS for various conditions. A good correlation between them was achieved in an overall sense, however the reduction of natural frequencies due to the existence of preaxial loads was not apparent when the vertical load level was about up to 38% of its resistance. Some difficulties related to the field testing and parameter extraction for a very slender arch, as might arise from the influences of neighboring members, are carefully discussed.

Transmission of a tracked vehicle designed for multiple functions such as steering, gear-shifting, and braking is a core component of heavy vehicle to which the power is transferred based on combined technology of various gears, bearing, and fluid machineries. Robustness and durability of transmission, however, have been issued due to a large number of driving units and sub-components inside its body. Particularly, transmission housing is important structure which supports the transmission, and is made of aluminum alloy. Thus, structural robustness against such mechanical loading or vibration must be attained. Structural reliability evaluation through FEM analysis can save time and cost of the actual tests. In this study, structural evaluation is conducted on output housing of transmission, which is core component of tracked vehicle, using the simulation program. In addition, transmission dynamo test is performed to evaluate structural robustness of the output housing against the vibration which can be produced during the transmission operation.

In this paper, the ultrasonic horn having the natural frequency with 60 [kHz] for the dissimilar material bonding of the glass and solder tried to be designed. The ultrasonic horn was designed through the relational formula including the aspect ratio of the input terminal and output terminal, length of the ultrasonic horn. The modal analysis was performed for the propriety analysis of the designed horn. The parameters and response was set through the basic experiment. The dissimilar material bonding strength analysis using the ultrasonic transducer was done. The optimal process parameters having maximum bonding strength was derived.

In this study, the method of designing the flexible wing model which will be used for wind tunnel testing of gust response alleviation system was presented. The design concept proposed herein was validated by performing the modal testing of the flexible wing model manufactured for demonstration purpose. In addition, the study on the gust response alleviation using flexible wing control surface was performed. For this purpose, optimal control with output feedback was adopted for designing the control surface controller, and the effects of gust response alleviation was validated by performing the numerical simulation for the representative flexible wing model. The methods proposed and validated in this study can be applied for wind tunnel testing of the flexible wing for gust response alleviation.
