In this study, vibrations and resulting acoustic radiations from an elastic beam impacted by a steel ball were studied theoretically and experimentally. First the transverse vibrations of free-free elastic beams are analysed with modal analysis technique. The impact forces are modeled with the Hertz's theory and the contanct duration is compared with the measured values. Also the calculated beam vibrations are verified with the experimental results. Then the acoustic radiations due to the beam vibration are studied numberically and experimentally. The acousticpressure is calculated assuming the beam has an elliptical cross-section. The predicted acoustic pressure is compared with the measured value. It was found that both the predicted beamvibrations using the Hertz's theory and the estimated acoustic pressure under the assumption of an elliptical cross- section are in very good agreements with the measured values.

In this study, we propose a 3D finite element (FE) model for the residual stress under oblique shot peening. Using the FE model for an oblique impact, we examine the effects of factors on the residual stress such as the Rayleigh damping in the material, dynamic friction, and the rate dependency of the material and systematically integrate the effects. The plastic deformation of the shot is also emphasized. Then, the FE model is used to study oblique multi-impacts. The results obtained using the FE model are compared with experimental x-ray diffraction (XRD) results; in contrast to the rigid and elastic shots, plastic shots are found to produce residual stresses similar to that shown in the XRD results. Thus, the 3D FE models with integrated factors and plastically deformable shots are validated. The proposed model will serve as a basis for the 3D FE model for multi-impacts with different impact angles to simulate the actual phenomenon of shot peening.

전자빔 플라즈마는 전자 소스 부분, 전자 가속 부분, 전자빔 플라즈마 생성 부분으로 구성되어 있다. Hollow cathode형태의 전극과 anode역할을 하는 안쪽 그리드로 DC방전을 일으켜 전자를 발생시키고 안쪽 그리드와 바깥쪽 그리드 사이의 전압차이로 전자를 가속시킨다. 가속된 전자는 중성 가스와 비탄성 충돌을 하게 되어 플라즈마가 생성이 된다. 이러한 방식으로 생성된 전자빔 플라즈마는 플라즈마 형성 공간에 전기장이 없어 전자가 에너지를 얻을 수 없으며, 중성가스와 비탄성 충돌로 인해 에너지를 쉽게 잃기 때문에 전자 온도가 낮게 유지가 된다. 일반적으로 바깥쪽 그리드는 접지를 시켜 전자빔 플라즈마를 발생시키지만, DC 전원을 연결하여 양의 전압을 걸어주면 전자빔 플라즈마의 밀도는 크게 변하지 않고 전자 온도가 급격히 상승하게 된다. Ar 전자빔 플라즈마의 경우 바깥쪽 그리드가 접지에 연결되었을 경우 전자 온도는 0.5eV 정도인 것에 비해 바깥쪽 그리드에 20V DC전압을 걸어주면 전자 온도가 1eV 정도로 크게 증가를 한다. 그 이유는 바깥쪽 그리드 전압의 영향으로 전자빔 플라즈마 전위가 상승하게 되고 그 결과 높은 에너지를 가진 전자가 플라즈마 전위에 갇히게 되기 때문이다.

The collision behaviors of the tripod and jacket structures, which are considered as support structures for offshore wind towers at the Southwest sea of Korea, were compared by nonlinear dynamic analysis. These structures, designed for the 3 MW capacity of the wind towers, were modeled using shell elements with nonlinear behaviors, and the tower structure including the nacelle, was modeled by beam and mass elements with elastic materials. The mass of the tripod structure was approximately 1.66 times that of the jacket structure. A barge and commercial ship were modeled as the collision vessel. To consider the tidal conditions in the region, the collision levels were varied from -3.5 m to 3.5 m of the mean sea level. In addition, the collision behaviors were evaluated as increasing the minimum collision energy at the collision speed (=2.6 m/s) of each vessel by four times, respectively. Accordingly, the plastic energy dissipation ratios of the vessel were increased as the stiffness of collision region. The deformations in the wind tower occurred from vibration to collapse of conditions. The tripod structure demonstrated more collision resistance than the jacket structure. This is considered to be due to the concentrated centralized rigidity and amount of steel utilized.

In the study, we analyzed the collision characteristics of a so-called arch-type submarine cable protector by considering the changes in drop heights of a stock anchor and material models for concrete and steel reinforcing bars. We considered plastic kinematics model and Johnson-Holmquist Concrete model for the concrete and linear elastic model and plastic kinematics model for the reinforcing bars. The drop heights of 2-ton stock anchor were selected as 3, 5, and 8.83m, respectively. ANSYS, a finite element analysis program, was used for the collision analysis. To save computational time, we converted those drop heights into initial velocities by the principle of energy conservation. From the sensitivity of the material models on the drop height changes, it is shown that the collision response of the reinforcing bars is sensitive firstly on the steel models and secondly on the concrete models, while the collision response of the concrete is sensitive only on the concrete models.

Since thickness deformation and lateral deflection often occurs during the collision of flexible bodies, they should be considered simultaneously in the impact analysis. The thickness deformation, however, cannot be considered in beam/shell theory since the thickness is assumed to be constant in the theory. So, solid elements are employed to estimate the thickness deformation. However, the CPU time increases significantly if solid elements are employed. In the present study, a modeling method for the impact analysis of a flexible body employing Hertzian contact theory is presented. The efficiency and the accuracy of the modeling method are discussed with some numerical examples.

본 연구에서는 이동제한장치가 있는 연속교의 지진응답특성을 고찰하였다. 일점고정연속교에 있어서 이동제한장치는 교각이 탄성거동을 하는 경우 교축방법 수평력 분산기능이 있으며 교각하부에 소성힌지가 발생하거나 내진분리베어링이 있는 경우에는 최대변위 및 비탄성거동에 따른 잔류변위제한에 매우 효과적이다. 상부구조와 이동제한장치의 충돌시 발생하는 충격력은 완충재의 사용으로 상당히 감소시킬 수 있다. 이동제한장치의 설치위치 및 이격거리는 이동제한장치가 설치될 하부구조의 강성 및 강도와 온도변화, 급제동력, 작은 지진발생시 충돌여부, 신축이음장치유간 등을 고려하여 결정되어야 한다.

Active magnetic bearings(AMBs) present a technology which has many advantages compared to traditional bearing concepts. However, they require backup bearings in order to prevent damages in the event of a system failure. In this study, the dynamics of an AMB supported rotor during impact on backup bearings is studied employing a detailed simulation model. The backup bearings are modeled using an accurate ball bearing model, and the model for a flexible rotor system is described using the finite element approach with the component mode synthesis. Not only the influence of the support stiffness, clearance and friction coefficient on the rotor orbit, but also bearing load are compared for various rotor system parameters. Comparing these results it is shown that the optimum backup bearing system can be applicable for a specific rotor system.

In this study, the momentum conservation type punching mechanism for micropunching system was developed to avoid the punch failure in the misaligned status between the punch and die. The punching energy can be precisely controlled by the falling height of the projectile mass and the intermediata mass, which contacts with the punch, transmit the energy to the punch with the same contact condition. The potential energy of the projectile mass is converted to kinetic energy at the light weight punch that the projection speed into the sheet metal workpiece can be accelerated. The butt formation characteristics for the alignment condition and for the projection speeds are investigated to verify the feasibility of the proposed punching mechanism.

A method is presented for generating the path which significantly reduces residual vibration of the redundant, flexible robot manipulator in the presence of obstacles. The desired path is optimally designed so that the system completes the required move with minimum residual vibration, avoiding obstacles. The dynamic model and optimal path are effectively formulated and computed by using special moving coordinate, called VLCS, to represent the link flexibility. The path to be designed is developed by a combined Fourier series and polynomial function to satisfy both the convergence and boundary condition matching problems. The concept of correlation coefficients is used to select the minimum number of design variables. A planar three-link manipualtor is used to evaluate this method. Results show that residual vibration can be drastically reduced by selecting an appropriate path, in the presence of obstacles.
