  • An in-hole seismic tests, which has been developed for measuring dynamic properties of soils and rock mass, is a bore hole seismic method that has cost effectiveness and practicality. The upgraded features include the motorized triggering system rather than the manual prototype version in the previous studies and a damper between source and receiver in the module. The performance of the probe has been verified through extensive cross-hole tests and in-hole tests at various sites. The dynamic stiffness of subsurface materials and rock mass have been evaluated and recently, the measurement of shear wave velocity was successfully adopted at horizontal holes of tunnel-face to install explosives. So the application of in-hole seismic test for various soil materials was certified.

  • The future combat system is likely to be studied and developed in terms of enhancing both firepower and mobility simultaneously. Increased firepower often necessitates a heavier firing system. In return, the body of the vehicle needs to be light-weight in order to improve the mobility of the whole system. For this reason, in the areas of weapons systems such as the tank and self-propelled artillery, a number of studies attempting to develop designs that reduce recoil force against the body of the vehicle are being conducted. The current study proposes a tank construction that has a mass-spring-damper system with two degrees of freedom. A tank structure mounted with a specific soft recoil system that was implemented using a soft recoil technique and another tank structure based on a general recoil technique were compared to each other in order to analyze the recoil forces, the displacements of recoil, and the firing intervals when they were firing. MATLAB-Simulink was used as a simulating tool. In addition, the relationship between the movement of the recoil parts and the positions of the recoil latches in each of the two structures were analyzed. The recoil impact power, recoil displacement, firing interval, and so on were derived as functional formulas based on the position of the recoil latch.

  • For an electromagnetic suspension (EMS)-type urban Maglev train using U-shaped electromagnets, both the vertical and the lateral air gaps for levitation are maintained only by the electromagnet. The train can run over curved rails without active lateral air gap control because the U-shaped electromagnet simultaneously produces both a levitation force and a guidance force, which is dependent on the levitation force. Owing to the passive control of the lateral air gap, the lateral vibration could exceed the limits of the lateral air gap and acceleration. In this study, dynamic analysis of a Maglev train is carried out, and the effectiveness of a lateral damper for vibration reduction is investigated. To more accurately predict the lateral vibration, a Maglev vehicle multibody model including air-sparing, guideway irregularities, electromagnets, and their controls is developed.

  • An optimization method is proposed for the simultaneous design of structural and control systems using the equivalent static loads. In the past researches, the control parameters of such feedback gains are obtained to improve some performance in the steady-state. However, the actuators which have position and velocity feedback gains should be designed to exhibit a good performance in the time domain. In other words, the system analysis should be conducted for the transient-state in dynamic manner. In this research, a new equivalent static loads method is presented to treat the control variables as the design variables. The equivalent static loads (ESLs) set is defined as a static load set which generates the same displacement field as that from dynamic loads at a certain time. The calculated sets of ESLs are applied as multiple loading conditions in the optimization process. Several examples are solved to validate the proposed method.

  • Swirl injector with adjustable backhole length was analyzed to suppress high-frequency combustion instability in Liquid Rocket Engines. In order to analyze the effect of swirl injector as an acoustic absorber, swirl injector was regarded as a quarter-wave resonator and its damping capacity is verified in atmospheric temperature. Experiments were carried out with copied tubes on air core because the interior air core volume of injector has a direct effect on damping. From the experimental data, it is proved that increasing the number of injectors mounted at each anti-node point can increase acoustic damping effect. Also, when tuned injectors at 1L, 1T, 1L1T modes simultaneously are installed at each anti-node point of model chamber, the damping effect of tuned injectors with multi modes agree well with it of tuned injectors with single mode.

  • A novel pneumatic artificial muscle actuator (PAM actuator), which has achieved increased popularity to provide the advantages such as high strength and high power/weight ratio, low cost, compactness, ease of maintenance, cleanliness, readily available and cheap power source, inherent safety and mobility assistance to humans performing tasks, has been regarded during the recent decades as an interesting alternative to hydraulic and electric actuators. However, some limitations still exist, such as the air compressibility and the lack of damping ability of the actuator bring the dynamic delay of the pressure response and cause the oscillatory motion. Then it is not easy to realize the performance of transient response of pneumatic artificial muscle manipulator (PAM manipulator) due to the changes in the external inertia load with high speed. In order to realize satisfactory control performance, a variable damper-Magneto­Rheological Brake (MRB), is equipped to the joint of the manipulator. Superb mixture of conventional PID controller and a phase plane switching control method brings us a novel controller. This proposed controller is appropriate for a kind of plants with nonlinearity, uncertainties and disturbances. The experiments were carried out in practical PAM manipulator and the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm was demonstrated through experiments, which had proved that the stability of the manipulator can be improved greatly in a high gain control by using MRB with phase plane switching control method and without regard for the changes of external inertia loads.

  • As a coating material for loudspeaker dampers, resilient polyurethane/epoxy hybrid resins were synthesized to replace conventional phenol resin and examined the physical properties, which are not only environmentally friendly but also not harmful to human. Five types of polyurethane resins were synthesized in the step-shot method using methylene diisocyanate, three polyols such as poly tetramethylene ether glycol(PTMEG, MW:2000), poly(1,4-buthylene adipate(PBAP, MW:2000), and poly carbonatediol(PCD, MW:2000), and three chain extenders such as ethylene glycol(EG), neopentyl glycol(NPG), and 1,4-buthandiol(1,4-BD). The five types of synthesized polyurethane resins and commercially available bisphenol A type epoxy resin were blended in weight ratios of 90:10, 70:30, and 50:50 to synthesize 15 types of polyurethane/epoxy hybrid resins. Among the polyurethane resins, the one that was synthesized using PCD and 1,4-BD showed excellent tensile strength, 100% modulus, low extension, and relatively high viscosity. Polyurethane/epoxy hybrid resins with higher epoxy resin contents showed better thermal properties and water resistance while those with higher polyurethane contents showed higher flexibility. The polyurethane/epoxy hybrid resin made by blending the polyurethane based on PCD and 1,4-BD with a bisphenol A type epoxy resin in a weight ratio of 70:30 was identified to be the most suitable to be used in speaker dampers.

  • Swirl injector with multi-stage tangential entry was analyzed to suppress high-frequency combustion instability in Liquid Rocket Engines. In order to analyze the effect of swirl injector as an acoustic absorber, swirl injector was regarded as a quarter-wave resonator and it's damping capacity is verified in atmospheric temperature. It has a finite mode of vibration and natural frequencies which can be tuned to the natural frequencies of a model combustion chamber. The interior air core shape of injector is more stable in the case of using the swirl injector with multi-stage entry than with single-stage entry. Also, when the swirl injector with multi-stage entry is used, tuned-injector length for unstable mode is well agreed with the calculated length. From the experimental data, it is proved that if the interior air core shape of swirl injector is stable, the fine tuned swirl injector can decrease the unstable mode of model chamber effectively and increase the damping rate.

  • 국내의 내진설계 기준은 1988년에 처음 도입되었으며, 최근 점차 강화되고 있는 실정이다. 공동주택에 주로 적용되는 전단벽식 구조시스템에서 증가된 지진력에 저항하기 위해서는 벽량과 철근이 증가하게 되어 공사비가 상승하게 된다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위한 제진설계의 필요성이 대두되고 있는 실정인데, 기존의 제진장치는 주로 가새형 또는 벽체형을 대부분이라 평면계획에 제약이 있다. 따라서 전단벽식 구조의 공동주택의 제진설계 시에는 우리나라와 같은 중 약진 지역에 적합하고 저렴한 비용으로 충분한 내진성능과 평면의 가변성을 확보할 수 있는 댐퍼의 선택이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 기존의 가새형 및 벽체형 제진장치의 국내 공동주택 적용시의 문제점인 평면의 가변성 확보에 유리하고, 수동형 제진장치의 장점을 추구할 수 있는 마찰댐퍼를 삽입한 커플링보 제진시스템의 내진성능을 조사하는 것이다. 내진성능을 평가하기 위해서 실대형 커플링보 실험체를 계획하고 제작하였다. 실험체는 2개로 구성되어 있으며, 하나는 기존의 철근배근 상세를 갖는 철근콘크리트 커플링보 실험체와 커플링보에 마찰댐퍼가 삽입된 실험체이다. 횡하중에 대한 성능을 평가하기 위해서 유사정적 반복가력실험을 실시하였다. 엑츄에이터로부터 실험체 상보의 가력지그를 통해 하중이 전달되도록 하였으며, 가력은 최초 0.25%의 층간변형각부터 변위제어를 통해 목표 층간변형각인 1.5% 이상까지 진행되도록 하였다. 실험결과, 두 실험체의 이력곡선과 에너지 흡수능력을 평가하였다. RC 실험체는 핀칭현상이 관찰되었고, 가력이 진행됨에 따라 커플링보와 벽체에서의 균열이 확산되어 종국적으로 취성적인 커플링보의 전단파괴가 발생하였다. 마찰댐퍼를 삽입한 실험체는 계획된 마찰거동이 잘 발휘되어 목표 층간변형각인 1.5%까지 이선형거동이 잘 나타났다. 최대 내력은 RC 실험체가 3배 이상 크지만, 누적층간변형각에 따른 에너지 흡수능력은 마찰댐퍼 실험체가 2배 이상 우수한 결과를 보였으며, 커플링보 및 벽체에서의 균열이 매우 저감되었다.

  • 최근 전 세계적으로 지진의 발생 빈도가 증가하며 그 규모도 점차 커지는 경향을 보이고 있다. 대형지진의 발생 시 저층 구조물의 붕괴로 인한 인명 및 사회, 경제적 피해가 두드러짐에 따라 기존 저층 구조물의 내진보강기법에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행 중인 추세이다. 우리나라의 경우 강도증가형 내진보강공법이 주를 이루고 있어 다양한 내진보강기법의 개발 및 적용이 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지진입력하중 저감형 내진보강기법으로서 강재댐퍼시스템을 제안하여 구조적 성능을 파악하고, 이를 적용한 보강 실험체와 비보강 실험체를 제작하여 정적가력실험을 통하여 그 성능을 비교하였다. 제안된 강재댐퍼시스템은 입력에너지를 소산시키는 내부의 슬릿형 댐퍼와 이를 지지하는 기둥 및 외부 프레임으로 구성되며, 내부 댐퍼는 먼저 항복하여 에너지를 소산시키기 위하여 지지기둥 및 프레임에 사용된 강재보다 강성 및 강도가 적게 계획되었다. 강재댐퍼의 성능실험 결과, 비교적 안정적 거동을 하며, 강성과 강도 및 에너지 흡수능력이 우수하게 나타났다. 보강 및 비보강 실험체의 골조는 기존 학교 건축물의 표준도면을 기준으로 하여 골조의 일부를 대상으로 60% 축소율을 적용하여 계획하였으며, 보강 실험체는 미리 제작된 강재댐퍼시스템을 골조 내에 설치하여 에폭시 주입법으로 부착시공 하였다. 보강 및 비보강 골조 실험체의 정적가력 실험결과 비보강 실험체는 기둥의 휨 항복 후 변형의 증가에 따라 휨 및 전단 균열이 증가하면서 최종적으로 기둥이 전단파괴 되었으며, 보강 실험체는 비보강 실험체에 비하여 기둥 및 보의 균열이 적고, 골조에 골고루 분포되어 파괴 규모가 감소하였다. 최대 강도면에서 보강 실험체는 비보강 실험체에 비하여 약 3.4배 우수하였으며, 초기강성은 약 7배 가량 유리한 것으로 평가되어 제안된 강재댐퍼시스템이 강도면에서 우수한 성능을 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 또한 두 실험체의 기둥 주근 및 띠철근의 변형률을 비교한 결과, 비보강 실험체는 대부분의 철근이 항복하여 큰 변형을 일으킨 반면, 보강실험체에서는 철근의 항복현상이 나타나지 않았고 댐퍼가 항복을 하면서 큰 변형을 일으켰다. 이를 통해 지진하중 입력 시 댐퍼에서 입력 에너지를 흡수하여 큰 하중을 부담하며, 기존의 구조부재에는 입력 에너지가 낮아 손상이 보다 적게 발생함을 확인하였다.
