As the generation capacity of floating offshore wind turbines increases, the wind load applied to each turbine increases. Due to such a high wind load, the capacity of transport equipment (such as tugboats or cranes) required in the transportation and installation phases must be much larger than that of previous small-capacity wind power generation systems. However, for such an important wind load prediction method, the simple formula proposed by the classification society is generally used, and prediction through wind tunnel tests or Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is rarely used, especially for a concept or initial design stages. In this study, the wind load of a 10 MW class floating offshore wind turbine was predicted by a simplified formula and compared with results of wind tunnel tests. In addition, the wind load coefficients at each stage of fabrication, transportation, and installation are presented so that it can be used during a concept or initial design stages for similar floating offshore wind turbines.

풍력발전단지에서 연간 에너지 생산량 예측의 정확도를 위해서는 바람 방향별 후류영향에 의한 풍속감소와 이에 따른 발전량 손실을 효과적으로 계산하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 연간 에너지 생산량 예측을 위하여 방향별 후류영향을 고려한 계산 프로그램을 개발하고, 예측 적합성을 확인하기 위해 실제 풍력발전단지의 연간 에너지 생산량 분석 결과 및 기존 상용 소프트웨어의 계산결과와 비교하였다. 적용된 계산식들은 기존 이론들을 바탕으로 하고 있어 상용 소프트웨어와 동일하지만 풍향별 후류영향 범위의 계산과정에서 차이가 있다. 비교결과 개발 프로그램은 실제 풍력발전단지 전체 시스템 이용율에 1% 이내로 근접하였고 기존 상용 프로그램을 이용한 예측 결과보다 2% 이상 실제 연간 시스템 이용율에 근접하는 결과를 보여주었다.

There are several important considerations that need to be made in the capacity design of RC frame-wall structures. Capacity design forces will be affected by material overstrength, higher mode effects and secondary loadpaths associated with the 3-dimensional structural response. In this paper, the main issues are identified and different means of predicting capacity design forces are reviewed. In order to ensure that RC frame-wall structures perform well it is explained that the prediction of the peak shears and moments that develop in the walls is particularly important and unfortunately very challenging. Through examination of a number of case study structures it is shown that there are a number of serious limitations with capacity design procedures included in current codes. The basis and potential of alternative capacity design procedures available in the literature is reviewed, and a new simplified capacity design possibility is proposed. Comparison with the results of 200 NLTH analyses of frame-wall structures ranging from 4 to 20 storeys suggest that the new method is able to predict wall base shears and mid-height wall moments reliably. However, efforts are also made to highlight the uncertainty with capacity design procedures and emphasise the need for future research on the subject.

사질토를 지나 풍화암에 4D 소켓된 매입 PHC말뚝에 대한 매개변수 수치해석 자료를 분석하여 지지력 표해 및 도해(I)이 제안된 바 있다(Choi et al., 2019a). 본 논문에서는 이를 활용하여 직경의 5% 침하량에서 발현되는 동원지지력을 산정할 수 있는 새로운 산정공식을 제안하였다. 제안식은 두 가지이며, 그 중에서 EQ-G1 제안식은 각각의 상대근입길이(L/D)에서 말뚝직경과 ${\bar{N}}$값(보정 N 값)을 고려하여 각 지지력 성분을 평가하며, 검증 결과는 다음과 같다. RQP는 약 71~94%로 나타났으며, 이는 일반 설계에서 사용하고 있는 지지력 산정공식으로 구한 SRF(26~37%)보다 큰 값을 나타냈다. RQP는 적정 설계의 범위로 분포하였는데, 4개 사례에서는 78, 136, 142, 180%로 나타났다. D_E는 β₁에 따라 달라질 수는 있는데, 본 연구에서는 0.85로 가정하였으므로 D_E는 약 85%로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 EQ-G1 제안식을 사용하여 PHC말뚝 몸체의 허용압축하중(P_all)까지 활용할 수 있는 적정설계를 수행할 수 있는 것으로 판단된다. 그리고 EQ-G2-3 제안식은 D, ${\bar{N}}$ 및 L/D를 동시에 고려하여 지지력 성분들을 평가할 수 있으며, 매입 PHC말뚝에서 지반의 압축지지력 산정 시 근사해법으로 활용할 수 있다.

국내외에서 널리 사용 중인 표준관입시험(Standard Penetration Test, SPT)은 작업의 용이성, 다양한 지반정수와 강도정수를 결정방법 등의 장점을 지니고 있다. 이러한 SPT 수행시에 발생하는 해머 에너지는 N치의 산정 및 보정에 매우 중요한 영향인자가 된다. SPT시험시 해머 타격에 의하여 롯드로 응력파가 전달되는 현상이 말뚝 항타 시에 발생하는 현상과 동일하다하여 SPT에 PDA장비를 적용하여 관입에너지를 측정하는 방법이 개발되어 사용 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 SPT 롯드를 말뚝으로 가정하여 SPT 에너지 효율 측정롯드를 SPT시험과 동적콘관입시험에 적용하여 얻어진 힘과 속도의 파형을 매칭기법(CAPWAP, CAse Pile Wave Analysis Program) 분석을 수행하여 매입말뚝에 대한 극한선단지지력을 예측하는 기법을 제안하였다. 또한, SPT 에너지 효율 측정롯드에서 예측된 선단지지력과 실물 말뚝정재하시험을 통하여 산정된 선단지지력을 비교분석하였다. 연구결과를 토대로 SPT나 동적콘관입시험을 통하여 매입말뚝의 지지력을 간편하게 예측할 수 있는 경험식을 제시하였다.

The properties of soil are naturally highly variable and thus, to ensure proper safety and reliability, we need to test a large number of samples across the length and depth. In pile foundations, conducting field tests are highly expensive and the traditional empirical relations too have been proven to be poor in performance. The study proposes a state-of-art Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) hybridized Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS); and comparative analysis of metaheuristic models (ANN-PSO, ELM-PSO, ANFIS-PSO) for prediction of bearing capacity of pile foundation trained and tested on dataset of nearly 300 dynamic pile tests from the literature. A novel ensemble model of three hybrid models is constructed to combine and enhance the predictions of the individual models effectively. The authenticity of the dataset is confirmed using descriptive statistics, correlation matrix and sensitivity analysis. Ram weight and diameter of pile are found to be most influential input parameter. The comparative analysis reveals that ANFIS-PSO is the best performing model in testing phase (R² = 0.85, RMSE = 0.01) while ELM-PSO performs best in training phase (R² = 0.88, RMSE = 0.08); while the ensemble provided overall best performance based on the rank score. The performance of ANN-PSO is least satisfactory compared to the other two models. The findings were confirmed using Taylor diagram, error matrix and uncertainty analysis. Based on the results ELM-PSO and ANFIS-PSO is proposed to be used for the prediction of bearing capacity of piles and ensemble learning method of joining the outputs of individual models should be encouraged. The study possesses the potential to assist geotechnical engineers in the design phase of civil engineering projects.

Rubber components are widely used in many application such as vibration isolators, damping, ride quality. Rubber spring is used in primary suspension system for railway vehicle. Characteristics and useful life prediction of rubber spring was very important in design procedure to assure the safety and reliability. Non-linear properties of rubber material which are described as strain energy function are important parameter to design and evaluate of rubber spring. These are determined by physical tests which are uniaxial tension, equi-biaxial tension and pure shear test. The computer simulation was executed to predict and evaluate the load capacity and stiffness for rubber spring. In order to investigate the useful life, the acceleration test were carried out. Acceleration test results changes as the threshold are used for assessment of the useful life and time to threshold value were plotted against reciprocal of absolute temperature to give the Arrhenius plot. By using the acceleration test, several useful life prediction for rubber spring were proposed.

In the present study, the variation of settlement, pore water pressure and undrained shear strength through model tests were measured. Also, the variation of water content, unit weight and shear strength by the vane shear tests were observed. In this study, appropriate deposit time of construction equipments used in treatment of hydraulic fills is determined from the prediction curve of increased shear strength in dredged fills.
