Applying a general Galerkin FE lubrication analysis method to spiral groove dry gas seals, this study intends to analyze in detail the effects of groove design parameters, such as a spiral angle, groove width ratio, groove radius ratio, groove depth ratio, and groove taper ratio, on the lubrication performances of an opening force, leakage, axial stiffness and damping, and angular stiffness and damping at low and high rotating speeds: 3,600 and 15,000 nm. Results show that, for the primary design consideration performances such as the opening force and axial and angular stiffnesses, a spiral angle of $25^{\circ}$, a groove width ratio of 0.46, a groove radius ratio of 1.1, a groove depth ratio of 1.0, and a groove taper ratio of 0.0 are preferred. Where the recommended relatively low values of groove depth and taper ratios are to keep the axial and angular dampings positive or higher than 0 particularly at the high rotating speed.

This paper presents the effectiveness of the dynamic vibration absorber consisting of a single mass, coil springs and oil damper on the resonance freauency ratio and amplitude ratio for damped linear systems, that is, primary vibration system with damping. The effects of the dynamic vibration absorber are investigated numerically and experimentally for values of mass ratio, natural frequency ratio, and damping ratio. The experimental results show good agreement with calculated ones. As a result, the characteristics shown by the present work are useful in optimal tuning the dynamic vibration absorber in practice.

This study focuses on the amplitude dependency of damping of tall structures by the random decrement technique (RDT). Many researchers have adopted RDT to establish the amplitude dependency of damping ratios in super-tall buildings under strong wind loads. In this study, a series of simulated examples were analyzed to examine the reliability of this method. Results show that damping ratios increase as vibration amplitudes increase in several cases; however, the damping ratios in the simulated signals were preset as constants. This finding reveals that this method and the derived amplitude-dependent damping ratio characteristics are unreliable. Moreover, this method would obviously yield misleading results if the simulated signals contain Gaussian white noise. Full-scale measurements on a super-tall building were conducted during four typhoons, and the recorded data were analyzed to observe the amplitude dependency of damping ratio. Relatively wide scatter is observed in the resulting damping ratios, and the damping ratios do not appear to have an obvious nonlinear relationship with vibration amplitude. Numerical simulation and field measurement results indicate that the widely-used method for establishing the amplitude-dependent damping characteristics of super-tall buildings and the conclusions derived from it might be questionable at the least. More field-measured data must be collected under strong wind loads, and the damping characteristics of super-tall buildings should be investigated further.

The measured damping ratio was analysed to obtain amplitude dependence. Wind-induced vibration of 20 story steel-framed building was measured to investigate amplitude dependence by RD method. Micro-tremo vibrations of 20 RC bearing wall typed buildings were performed to analysis the amplitude dependence by formula proposed by Tamua and ESDU. Amplitude dependent damping in 17 story steel-framed building was showed clearly in the increasing rate of 9%. But Amplitude dependent damping of 17 RC bearing wall typed buildings was very low in the increasing rate of 2.5%. The tendency of dynamic properties of building obtained here are useful for the validation of dynamic properties of buildings in the evaluation of serviceability.

본 연구에서는 복합소재 전동차용 대차프레임에 적용되는 4매 주자직 유리섬유/에폭시 복합소재에 대한 고유진동 특성과 주파수에 따른 감쇠특성을 평가하였다. 이를 위해 오토클레이브 성형을 통해 길이와 두께가 다른 유리섬유/에폭시 빔 시편을 제작하였다. 시험결과 감쇠비의 최대값은 최소 고유진동수에서 발생하였다. 또한, 주파수가 증가함에 따라감쇠비는 지수 함수적으로 임계치까지 감소하였다. 이후에는 주파수에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

In this paper, damping behavior of steel fiber reinforced concrete(SFRC) beams by experimental and numerical method is discussed. Because of its improved ability to dissipate energy, SFRC has a better damping behavior than that of reinforced concrete(RC). Damping behavior is influenced by longitudinal reinforcement ratio, volume md type of steel fiber, strength of concrete and the stress level. Damping in the SFRC beams has been evaluated from dynamic experimental test data at various levels of cracked states in the beams. A FEM program(TICAL) has been developed based on the relationships between curvature and damping. It is observed far SFRC beams with 0.44$\%$ of tensile reinforcement steel that approximate 5$\%$ to 35$\%$ was relatively increased in the damping ratio generally depending on the load level.

The purpose of this study is to propose a new method for evaluating equivalent damping ratios of a structure with supplemental damping devices to assess their control effect quantitatively. A MDOF system is transformed to an equivalent SDOF system based on the assumption that the first mode dominates structural response. Approximate closed-form formulas for the evaluation of the first damping ratio are presented for various damping devices. Through numerical analysis of a ten-story building equipped with damping devices, the effectiveness of equivalent SDOF model and closed form formulas are verified.

With the recent trend to construct high-rise and large buildings, the steel structure system is widely used, but there are not enough studies on the vibration characteristics of the iFLASH system on the buildings. Therefore, in this study, we performed a vibration measurement of the natural frequency and damping ratio in the stage of iFLASH panel, composit, frame completion and cladding completion. The result findings suggest that the damping ratio after the cladding completion has a greater effect on the reduction of the damping ratio, than the stage after the frame completion.

The aim of the present study is to provide fundamental informations for the development of magneticfluid actuator. To achieve the aim, oscillation characteristics of the magneticfluid plug are investigated by experiment for the various length and position of the magneticfluid plug and the frequency of magnetic field. The oscillation characteristics are obtained. Amplitude, natural frequency, phase shift and damping ratio, are compared with theoretical values. From the study, the following conclusive remarks can be made. The experimental equation for the magnetic field is obtained. The critical magneticfluid length exists and its value is about 70mm. The range of the damping ratio and fluid loss coefficient obtained by experiment are 0.1~0.2 and 30~100, respectively. Comparison between experimental and theoretical results of oscillation characteristics shows good agreement in the high frequency range. Meanwhile, in the low frequency range, there appears little discrepancies(5% in the frequency and amplitude and 10% in phase difference and damping ratio) with each other.

The main purpose of this study is to figure out of seismic structural behaviour of Gukrakjeon of Bongjung-Temple which is the oldest wooden architecture in Korea, and to evaluate in engineering aspect of seismic records. The non-lineal analysis is essential for accurate evaluation of wooden architecture in seismic behaviour. Based on the experimental test with applying cycle forces in joint specimens is focusing on not only to prove the structural characteristics, but also to evaluate damping ratio, As the result of this test, damping ratio is affected not the joint methods but the frame variations. The average damping ratio was 26%.
