A cantilever-type piezoelectric generator has advantages of simple structure, ease of fabrication and large displacement by transverse vibration of a beam. It is easy to control the natural frequency, and also possible to increase the output power by changing the length, width, and thickness of the generator. In particular, the length increases, the natural frequency sharply decreases, and vice versa. Hence, the natural frequency can widely be controlled by using change in the length of elastic body. In this paper, the generator was designed and fabricated to change natural frequency using the slides of the case. In addition, the generating characteristics were confirmed through finite element analyses and vibration experiment. As a result, the maximum output characteristics could be generated due to resonance phenomenon although any frequency of external force was applied.

Electro-Rheological(ER) fluids undergo a phase-change when subjected to an external electic field, and this phase-change typically manifests itself as a many-order-of-magnitude change in the rheological behavior. This phenomenon permits the global stiffness and energy- dissipation properties of the beam structures to be tuned in order to synthesize the desired vibration characteristics. This paper reports on a proof-of-concept experimental investigation focussed on evaluation the vibration properties of hollow cantilevered beams filled with an ER fluid. and consequently deriving an empirical model for predicting field-dependent vibration characteristics. A hydrous-based ER fluid consisting of corn starch and silicone oil is employed. The beams are considered to be uniform viscoelastic materials and modelled as a viscously-damped harmonic oscillator. Natural frequency, damping ratio and elastic modulus are evaluated with respect to the electric field and compared among three different beams: two types of different volume fraction of ER fluid and one type of different particle concentration of ER fluid by weight. Transient and forced vibration responses are examined in time domain to demonstrate the validity of the proposed empirical model and to evaluate the feasibility of using the ERfluid as an actuator in a closed-loop control system.

최근, 차량의 생활환경 소음에 대한 규제가 점점 강화되고 있다. 특히, 차량으로부터 발생하는 여러 가지 소음원 중에서 타이어로부터 발생하는 소음의 비중이 점점 증가하는 추세이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 타이어의 트레드밴드로 부터 발생하는 소음에 대하여 연구하였다. 본 연구에서는 타이어 트레드밴드를 장력, 감쇠, 기초강성 둥이 고려된 무한 보로 가정하였고, 타이어 트레드밴드에 조화집중이동하중이 가진 될 때 트레드밴드로 부터 발생하는 소음을 예측하고자 하였다. 트레드밴드로 부터 방사되는 음향파워는 공간좌표의 푸리에 변환을 이용하여 예측할 수 있으며, 타이어 내부 공기압에 의한 장력, 재질의 특성에 의한 감쇠, 기초강성 둥의 변화가 트레드밴드로 부터 방사되는 음향파워에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 한편, 본 연구에서 제시한 모텔은 저소음 타이어 개발을 위한 타이어 설계 자료의 일환이다.

계류된 사각형 부유식 방파제의 파랑제어성능에 대한 해석적인 연구를 수행하였다. 고유함수 전개법을 사용하여 사자형 부유식 방파제의 운동특성과 투과율을 살펴보았다. 계류삭의 강성계수는 선형 탄성스프링으로 가정하였다. 고유함수전개법을 사용한 해석결과는 유한요소법을 사용한 수피계산결과와 전 주파수에 걸쳐 잘 일치함을 보여주었다. 사각형 부유식 방파제의 단면형상과 계류삭의 특성 능과 간은 중요한 선계변수들과 입사파의 파장을 바꿔가면서 파랑 제어성능을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 적절히 설계된 부유식 방파제는 효과적인 파랑제어구조물로 활용이 가능하다는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다.

본 연구의 목적은 축대칭 하중을 받는 원통형 펄의 엄밀해를 구하는데 있어서, 간략하면서도 엄밀한 해를 구하는 방법을 제시하고자 하는데 있다. 이는 임의 형상의 구조해석을 위한 강력한 도구이긴 하지만 여전히 근사해석인 유한요소법에 대체될 수 있을 것이다. 이를 위해 본 논문은 반복법의 일종인 인도행렬법을 이용한 절점역계의 분배방식을 사용하였다. 원통형 쉘의 분배와 전달인자는 한성지반상의 보에 대한 미분방정식으로부터 구해진 것이다. 이러한 방법을 축대칭 집중하중과 정수압을 받는 원통형 쉘에 각각 적용해 보았고, 그 결과는 BEF 이론해와 비교할 때 만족할 만 하였다.

In this paper elastic-plastic large deflection analysis of ship structural members, plates, stiffened plates and cylindrical shallow shell, are performed by the finite element method. And for the consideration of the yielded propagation through the depth of the member, the layered element approach is employed. The present method is justified by comparing its results with those of experiment and others. As results, the nonlinear behavior and the ultimate strength curves are shown, which can be used in the design of the plates and the stiffened plates under compression, and the applicability to the shell structures is suggested. The analysis results are as followings. (1) The results of the approximate equations as well as those of buckling analysis may not guarantee precisely the safety of the structures in some cases and the optimum in other cases. Therefore they may not show the design criteria for the optimal design. (2) As the initial deflection increases, its effects on the ultimate strength of the structure generally increases, and the ultimate load, therefore, decreases. (3) This approach can be applied to the shell type structures. (4) The present method can be applied to the various structures composed of plate and beam members, for example, plates with hole and the stiffened plates with hole stiffened by spigot, doubler and/or stiffener, for the optimal design.

The safety level of a structural system designed per code specifications can not be inferred directly from the reliability of members due to the load redistribution and nonlinear inelastic structural behavior. Comparison of the system and member reliability, which is scarce in the literature, is likely to indicate any possible inconsistency of design codes in providing safe and economical designs. Such a comparative study is presented in this study for moment resisting two-dimensional steel frames designed per AISC LRFD Specifications. The member reliability is evaluated using the resistance of the beam-column element and the elastic load effects that indirectly accounts for the second-order effects. The system reliability analysis is evaluated based on the collapse load factor obtained from a second-order inelastic analysis. Comparison of the system and member reliability is presented for several steel frames. Results suggest that the failure probability of the system is about one order of magnitude lower than that of the most critically loaded structural member, and that the difference between the system and member reliability depends on the structural configuration, degree of redundancy, and dead to live load ratio. Results also suggest that the system reliability is less sensitive to initial imperfections of the structure than the member reliability. Therefore, the system aspect should be incorporated in future design codes in order to achieve more reliability consistent designs.

The problem of laterally loaded piles is particularly a complex soil-structure interaction problem. The flexural stresses developed due to the combined action of axial load and bending moment must be evaluated in a realistic and rational manner for safe and economical design of pile foundation. The paper reports the finite element analysis of pile groups. For this purpose simplified models along the lines similar to that suggested by Desai et al. (1981) are used for idealizing various elements of the foundation system. The pile is idealized one dimensional beam element, pile cap as two dimensional plate element and the soil as independent closely spaced linearly elastic springs. The analysis takes into consideration the effect of interaction between pile cap and soil underlying it. The pile group is considered to have been embedded in cohesive soil. The parametric study is carried out to examine the effect of pile spacing, pile diameter, number of piles and arrangement of pile on the responses of pile group. The responses considered include the displacement at top of pile group and bending moment in piles. The results obtained using the simplified approach of the F.E. analysis are further compared with the results of the complete 3-D F.E. analysis published earlier and fair agreement is observed in the either result.

Ultra-lightweight cement composite (ULCC) with a compressive strength of 60 MPa and density of $1450kg/m^3$ has been developed and used in the steel-concrete-steel (SCS) sandwich structures. ULCC was adopted as the core material in the SCS sandwich composite beams to reduce the overall structural weight. Headed shear studs working in pairs with overlapped lengths were used to achieve composite action between the core material and steel face plates. Nine quasi-static tests on this type of SCS sandwich composite beams were carried out to evaluate their ultimate strength performances. Different parameters influencing the ultimate strength of the SCS sandwich composite beams were studied and discussed. Design equations were developed to predict the ultimate resistance of the cross section due to pure bending, pure shear and combined action between shear and moment. Effective stiffness of the sandwich composite beam section is also derived to predict the elastic deflection under service load. Finally, the design equations were validated by the test results.
