This paper presents a mathematical model and simulation method for investigating the performance of set net systems and fish cage systems influenced by currents and waves. Both systems consist of netting, mooring ropes, a floating collar and sinkers. The netting and ropes were considered flexible structures and the floating collar was considered an elastic structure. Both were modeled on a mass-spring model. The structures were divided into finite elements and mass points were placed at the mid-point of each element, and the mass points were connected by mass-less springs. Each mass point was subjected to external and internal forces and the total force was calculated at every integration step. An implicit integration scheme was used to solve the nonlinear dynamic system. The computation method was applied to dynamic simulation of actual systems simultaneously influenced by currents and waves in order to evaluate their practicality. The simulation results improved our understanding of the behavior of the structure and provided valuable information concerning the optimized design of set net and fish cage systems exposed to an open ocean environment.

Two types of numerical modeling techniques were considered for the dynamic response of a structure subjected to a ground acceleration. One technique is based on the equation of motion relative to ground motion, and the other is based on the equation of absolute motion of the structure and the ground. The analytic background of the former is well established while the latter has not yet been extensively verified. The latter is called a large mass method, which allocates an appropriate large mass to the ground so that it causes the ground to move according to a given acceleration time history. In this paper, through the use of a single degree-of-freedom spring-mass system, the equations of motion of the two techniques were analyzed and useful theorems are provided on the large mass method. Using simple examples, the numerical results of the two modeling techniques were compared with analytic solutions. It is shown that the theorems provide a clear insight on the large mass method.

An analysis model is proposed for the performance prediction of typical ball and tube type mechanical crash sensors based upon mass-spring-viscous gas damping idealization. Also a construction of mechanical crash pulse generator is suggested as an experimental tool for calibration and verification of model predictions. A sensor tuning procedure for a particular set of crash pulses is suggested based upon the analysis model and the experimental tools.

Due to the long training time and high training cost of traditional surgical training methods, the emerging virtual surgical training method has gradually replaced it as the mainstream. However, the virtual surgical system suffers from poor authenticity and high computational cost problems. For overcoming the deficiency of these problems, we propose an optimized model for the local compression deformation of soft tissue. This model uses a simulated annealing algorithm to optimize the parameters of the soft tissue model to improve the authenticity of the simulation. Meanwhile, although the soft tissue deformation is divided into local deformation region and non-deformation region, our proposed model only needs to calculate and update the deformation region, which can improve the simulation real-time performance. Besides, we define a compensation strategy for the "superelastic" effect which often occurs with the mass-spring model. To verify the validity of the model, we carry out a compression simulation experiment of abdomen and human foot and compare it with other models. The experimental results indicate the proposed model is realistic and effective in soft tissue compression simulation, and it outperforms other models in accuracy and real-time performance.

중독 문제가 사회문제가 되고 있으며 이를 해결하고자하는 사회적 노력이 계속되고 있다. 이러한 노력 중의 하나로 중독에 대한 수학적 모델링과 이 모델링을 이용하여 거동해석을 수행하며 이 결과를 가지고 중독이전과 중독이후의 상태를 판정하는 연구를 중독 이전의 상태에서 중독 상태로 진행하는 단계의 관찰을 통한 연구를 진행하는 것이 필요하다. 이러한 필요성에 따라 본 연구에서는 운동에 대한 중독 방정식을 전개하기 위하여 Spring-Damper-Mass 시스템과 등가적으로 구성할 수 있는 새로운 2차계로 구성한 운동에 대한 운동 중독 방정식 모델을 제안하고 이 중독 방정식에서의 거동을 분석한다.

본 연구에서는 로켓엔진 연소기의 음향 불안정 억제를 위해 헬름홀츠 공명기의 음향학적 최적 설계 조건을 해석/실험적으로 연구하였다. 질량-스프링-댐퍼 시스템과의 유사성을 이용한 모델 식의 풀이를 통해 감쇠 성능을 정량화하였다. 헬름홀츠 공명기의 기하학적 형상 인자로 목의 길이와 공동의 크기, 목 및 공동의 직경을 선택하였다. 목의 길이가 짧아지고, 공동의 길이가 길어짐에 따라 흡음성능이 증가하고, 목과 공동의 직경비가 증가함에 따라 흡음성능은 감소하였다.

This research addresses experimentally the relationship between the excitation frequency and both hoop and axial wall stresses in a water storage tank. A low-density polyethylene tank with six different aspect ratios (water level to tank radius) was tested using a shake table. A laminar box with sand represents a soil site to simulate Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI). Sine excitations with eight frequencies that cover the first free vibration frequency of the tank-water system were applied. Additionally, Ricker wavelet excitations of two different dominant frequencies were considered. The maximum stresses are compared with those using a nonlinear elastic spring-mass model. The results reveal that the coincidence between the excitation frequency and the free-vibration frequency of the soil-tank-water system increases the sloshing intensity and the rigid-like body motion of the system, amplifying the stress development considerably. The relationship between the excitation frequency and wall stresses is nonlinear and depends simultaneously on both sloshing and uplift. In most cases, the maximum stresses using the nonlinear elastic spring-mass model agree with those from the experiments.

The purpose of this study was to develop a theoretical model to analyze the vibration of finite railways forced by distributed moving loads. The vibration characteristics of compliantly supported beam utilizing compressional damping model were investigated through the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The distributed moving load was analyzed as the cross correlation function on railways. This allowed the use of statistical characteristics for simulation of the moving train wheels on the rail. The results showed there is a critical velocity inducing resonant vibration of the rail. The mass spring resonance from the rail fastening systems exhibited significant influence on the resulting vibration response. In particular, the effect of the viscoelastic core damping was investigated as an efficient method for minimizing rail vibration. The decrease of the averaged vibration and rolling noise generation by the damping core was maximized at the mass-stiffness-mass resonance frequency.

Simple spring-damper-mass models have been widely used to understand whole-body vertical biodynamic response characteristics of the seated vehicle driver. However, most previous models have not considered about the non-rigid masses(wobbling masses). A simple mechanical model of seated human body developed in this study included the torso represented by a rigid and a wobbling mass. Within the 0.5-20Hz frequency range and for excitation amplitudes maintained below $5ms^{-2}$, this 4-degree-of-freedom driver model is proposed to satisfy the measured vertical vibration response characteristics defined from a synthesis of published data for subjects seated erect without backrest support. The parameters are identified by using the combinatorial optimization technique, simulated annealing method. The model response was found to be provided a closer agreement with the response characteristics than previously published models.

오탁방지막이 바닷물 속에 설치되어 있을 때 조류와 파도가 변할 때 움직임과 앵커 파주력을 초과하는 유체력이 작용할 경우의 이동 메카니즘을 질량-스프링법으로 해석하였다. 설치 위치는 전남 진도군 임회면 굴포리 동령개 포구 해역이다. 앵커의 파주력을 초과하는 장력은 0.05 m/s에서는 318초 후에 도달하였고, 0.15 m/s에서는 77초, 0.25 m/s에서는 43초, 0.3 m/s에서는 37초 후에 앵커가 움직이기 시작하여, 조류 속도가 0.01 m/s로 증가함에 따라서 평균 11.2 초 정도, 앵커 이동시작 시간이 단축되고 있었다. 조류만 작용할 때와 파랑이 추가될 때의 차이점은 유속이 느릴 경우, 앵커의 이동이 시작되는 시간의 차이가 7.6 % 정도 발생하였으나, 유속이 빠른 경우는 4.3 % 미만으로 큰 차이가 없이 앵커 이동이 시작되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 조류 속도가 0.13 m/s를 초과하고 파도의 방향이 일치하면 주변의 해저 구조물과의 충돌로 인해 오탁방지막 성능이 정상적으로 작동하지 않을 수 있으니, 오탁방지막을 바다에 설치할 때 해수의 흐름 상황 등을 질량-스프링 방법으로 면밀하게 검토해야 한다.
