Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets are the most efficient structural materials in terms of strength to weight ratio and its application in strengthening and retrofitting of a structure or structural elements are inevitable. The performance enhancement of structural elements without increasing the cross sectional area and flexible nature are the major advantages of FRP in retrofitting/strengthening work. This research article presents a detailed study on the inelastic response of conventional and retrofitted Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames using Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) and Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymers (GFRP) subjected to quasi-static loading. The hysteretic behaviour, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation and damage index are the parameters employed to analyse the efficacy of FRP strengthening of brick in-filled RC frames. Repair and retrofitting of brick infilled RC frame shows an improved load carrying and damage tolerance capacity than control frame.

회전체 진동은 주로 밸런싱에 의해 줄일수 있지만 위험속도에서 나타나는 회전체 진동은 종종 피할 수 없다. 전자기 베어링은 이러한 회전체 진동을 능동적으로 제어하는 방법으로써 사용된다. 비접촉으로 회전체에 힘을 작용하는 동흡진기(dynamic vibration absorber)는 기존의 것에 비해 새로운 것을 필요로 하지 않는 아주 간단한 방법이다. 영구자석으로 구성된 자석 댐퍼는 비접 촉동흡진기의 일종이지만 영구자석만으로는 적절한 감쇠 성능을 만족시킬 수 없다. 따라서 영 구자석과 전자석을 동시에 사용하는 하이브리드 자석이 넓은 운전영역에서 좋은 진동제어 성능을 자지기 때문에 유용하다. 전력공급의 편리성을 위해서 하이브리드 자석을 합진기쪽에 설치하고 여러 개의 편으로 된 영구자석은 회전체의 주위에 부착하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 수직 회전 체(vertical rotor)의 진동을 제어하기 위해서 전자기력을 이용하는 하이브리드 관성 댐퍼를 개 발하는 것이다. 지금까지 전자석을 이용한 진동제어는 여러 저자에 의해 연구되어 왔으며 자기 베어링은 회전체의 진동을 제어하기 위한 전형적인 예이다. 그러나 회전체에 능동관성 댐퍼를 직접 적용한 예는 없었다. 이동흡진기는 전자석의 반발력(repulsive force)을 이용하고 흡진기의 운동에 의해 에너지가 감쇠된다. 반면에 자기 베어링에서는 전자석의 흡인력(attractive force)을 이용한다.

Active magnetic bearings (AMB's) have become practical in many industrial fields and numbers of studies for magnetic bearing systems have been reported. However, AMB systems are open-loop unstable and thus require feedback control for robust stabilization and performance. In this paper, first, a rotation of the rotor around the inertial axis is considered and a rigorous modeling of a magnetic bearing system in which the rotation of the rotor is on its axis of inertia is developed. Next, to stabilize the AMB system a PID controller is used and experimentally analyze its rotational response.

Effects of each acoustic property on absorption characteristics of polyester fiber materials has been studied in this paper. It would be impossible for us to measure effects of each acoustic property by experimental method since we cannot make sound-absorbing materials in which only one of the properties is changed. We have adopted a numerical prediction method to carry out parameter studies for each acoustic property. And to get a general behavior of acoustic performance of the materials, the numerical simulation has been repeated to several cases of different bulk density. Finally we have obtained frequency-dependent control factors in the absorption performance which gives us design capability of acoustic absorbing materials.

The major noise source for the conventional train is the rolling noise caused by the interaction of the wheels and rails during the train passage on the tangent track. In order to control the rolling noise, the noise radiated from wheels, rails and sleepers should be analyzed and predicted. In this paper, a prediction method of wheel/rail rolling noise generated by the roughness of the wheel/rail surface is described, where the method is considering the effect of noise radiated by sleepers and the effect of ground. The method is applied to the Korean railway system, and the sound pressure level (SPL) predicted by the proposed method is compared with the measured SPL. Overall. the result shows good agreement between the predicted and measured values.

We design a new actuator of 3-axis motion for high performance optical devices. The actuator makes it possible to control the tilting motion by using moving magnet and PCB-coil, which have benefits in price and manufacturing. To predict the characteristics of the actuator, especially the effect of moving magnet, finite element method and electro-magnetic analysis were used. By comparing simulation data with experimental results, we verified the accuracy of the simulation and the superiority of the present.

Based on the MacDonald's analytic model for the diffracted sound field of a semi-infinite noise barrier, computer simulations were performed for various positions of error microphones for an active noise barrier system. The simulation process also included the effects of floor reflections on both sides of the barrier. The results were also compared with Niu's simulation results and showed a straight line arrangement of sensors and actuators, in the order of primary source, secondary source and error microphone is better than over the top arrangement of the error microphones.

With recent advance in automotive noise control engineering reducing major sound sources in the vehicle, customers perceive Buzz, Squeak and Rattle (BSR) as one of important indicators of vehicle quality and durability. As the long-term goal, we expect to establish the integrated design cycle for the reduction of the BSR noise in the early stage of vehicle development. which consist of design, prediction and evaluation procedures. This is possible only with great bulk of experimental data for BSR noise. In this paper, BSR noise is experimentally identified for vehicle doors, which have been traditionally considered as one of main sources of BSR noise. Based on this result, we proposed systematic method for the prevention of BSR noise in the vehicle doors.

Recently, KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) has been developing a modern 11.5m diameter four bladed bearingless main rotor system, and this rotor system can be used for 7,000lb class helicopter. Flexbeam and torque tube can be considered as the key structural components, and large elastic twist of flexbeam induced by pitch control motion of torque tube can influence the nonlinear aeroelastic behavior. In this paper, the dynamic characteristic analysis results of bearingless rotor system were presented. In order to construct a input model and validate the analysis procedures, calculated results using the comprehensive helicopter analysis program CAMRAD II were compared with the measured natural frequencies and lag damping data from small-scale wind tunnel test. Next, the analysis model was extended to a full-scale model, and the dynamic analysis results were presented.

One of the main objectives of noise control act is to define and ensure application and respect of noise exposure limits. Most advanced countries have prepared a legal framework for noise limits either by national laws, ordinances or municipal by-laws. A large number of advaced countries have adopted the $L_{eq}$ index for the main sources of noise (road, railway, industry). The exception is aircraft noise for which regulatory practice is highly disparate. These differences in the indices adopted, the periods and areas to which regulations apply, definitions of measurement conditions and ways in which noise levels are calculated make it difficult to compare the current advanced countries standards. This study presents the current noise abatement policy of the advanced countries and proposes the improvement of the current noise abatement policy of Korea to catch up with it of the advanced countries.
