Stress wave propagation through concrete is simulated by finite element analysis. The concrete medium is modeled as a homogeneous material with smeared properties to investigate and establish the suitable finite element analysis method (explicit versus implicit) and analysis parameters (element size, and solution time increment) also suitable for rigorous investigation. In the next step, finite element analysis model of the medium is developed using a digital image processing technique, which distinguishes the mortar and aggregate phases of concrete. The mortar and aggregate phase topologies are, then, directly mapped to the finite element mesh to form a heterogeneous concrete model. The heterogeneous concrete model is then used to simulate wave propagation. The veracity of the model is demonstrated by evaluating the intrinsic parameters of nondestructive ultrasonic pulse velocity testing of concrete. Quantitative relationships between aggregate size and testing frequency for nondestructive testing are presented.

최근 바이오센서, 비파괴진단, 방위센서 등 다양한 분야에서 휴대가 가능하며 감도가 높은 자기센서에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 연자성 리본의 거대 자기임피던스 효과를 이용한 새로운 휴대용 고감도 자기임피던스 센서 시스템을 개발하였다. 자기임피던스 센서는 $Co_{66}Fe_{4}Si_{15}B_{15}$ 연자성 비정질 리본을 공기중에서 자기장 열처리하는 방법으로 교환결합을 발생시켜 비대칭 자기임피던스 특성을 부여한 센서용 헤드와 신호처리 회로로 구성되었다. 개발된 센서는 $-1\;Oe\;{\sim}\;1\;Oe$의 다이나믹 레인지에서 선형에 가까운 특성을 보였으며 자기장 민감도는 약 10.5 V/Oe 였다. 자기임피던스 센서 시스템이 와이어로프의 결함 진단 장치에 응용될 수 있음을 보였다.

In this paper, effects of thermoelastic stress by using lock-in thermography was measured in the cantilever beam. In experiment, a circular holed plate was applied to analyze variation of transient stress under the condition of repeated cyclic loading. And the finite element modal analysis as computational work was performed. According to the surface temperature obtained from infrared thermography, the stress of the nearby hole was predicted based on thermoelastic equation. As results, each stress distributions between 2nd and 3rd vibration mode were qualitatively and quantitatively investigated, respectively. Also, dynamic stress concentration factors according to the change of vibration amplitude were estimated for the resonance frequency.

A new BWIM(bridge weigh-in-motion) algorithm using both measured strain and acceleration data is proposed. To consider the effects of bridge vibration on the estimation of moving loads, the dynamic governing equation is applied with the known stiffness and mass properties but damping is ignored. Dynamic displacements are computed indirectly from the measured strains using the beam theory and accelerations are measured directly by accelerometers. To convert a unit moving load to its equivalent nodal force, a transformation matrix is determined. The incompleteness in the measured responses is considered in developing the algorithm. To examine the proposed BWIM algorithm, simulation studies, laboratory experiments and field tests were carried. In the simulation study, effects of measurement noise and estimation error in the vehicle speed on the results were investigated.

In the industrial field, real-time monitoring system like a fault early detection is very important. For this, the infrared thermography technique as a new diagnosis method is proposed. This study is focused on the damage detection and temperature characteristic analysis of ball bearing using the non-destructive infrared thermography method. In this paper, thermal image and temperature data were measured by a Cedip Silver 450 M infrared camera. Based on the results, the temperature characteristics under the conditions of normal, loss lubrication, damage, dynamic loading, and damage under loading were analyzed. It was confirmed that the infrared technique is very useful for the detection of the bearing damage.

This paper presents the damage assessment of a building structure by using a novel optical fiber accelerometer system. Especially, a sub-scaled building model is designed and manufactured to check up the feasibility of the optical fiber accelerometer for structural health monitoring. The novel accelerometer exploits the moir$\acute{e}$ fringe optical phenomenon and two pairs of optical fibers to measure the displacement with a high accuracy, and furthermore a pendulum to convert the displacement into acceleration. A prototype of optical fiber accelerometer system has been successfully developed that consists of a sensor head, a control unit and a signal processing unit. The building model is also designed as a 4-story building with a rectangular shape of $200{\times}300$ mm of edges. Each floor is connected to the next ones by 6 steel columns which are threaded rods. Basically, a random vibration test of the building model is done with a shaker and all of acceleration data is successfully measured at the assigned points by the optical fiber accelerometer. The experiments are repeated in the undamaged state and the damaged state. The comparison of dynamic parameters including the natural frequencies and the eigenvectors is successfully carried out. Finally, the optical fiber accelerometer is proven to be prospective to evaluate dynamic characteristics of a building structure for the damage assessment.

회전기기의 고장 탐지에 있어 기존의 진단법과 달리 동적 하중조건 하에서 비접촉, 비파괴의 적외선 열화상 기법이 제안된다. 본 논문에서는 단열 깊은 홈 볼 베어링을 시편으로 하여, 회전기기의 기존의 고장 진단법 대신 수동형 열화상 기법을 이용한 시험을 수행하였다. 추가적으로, 제안된 방법의 효율성을 평가하기 위해 기존의 진동 스펙트럼 분석법을 적용하여 열화상 시험법을 비교하였다. 시혐의 결과로써, 동적 하중조건 하 볼 베어령의 온도분포 특성이 철저히 분석되었다.

본 논문은 단자유도 동적 센서 시스템의 동적 구간을 조절할 수 있는 새로운 신호 처리법을 소개한다. 또한 본 논문에서는 무아래 현상을 응용한 신개념의 광섬유 가속도계를 사용하여 신호 처리법을 검증하였다. 신개념의 광섬유 가속도계는 단일 질량, 단일 탄성자 그리고 단일 감쇠자로 이루어진 단자유도 동적 시스템으로서 동적 구간이 작아 이출 증가시키기 위해서는 질량이나 탄성자 상수를 조절하는 등의 기계적 조절이 필요하다. 그러나 본 논문에서 제안한 신호처리 방법을 적용한다면 센서를 다시 제작하지 않고도 동적 구간을 쉽게 조절할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 여러 모의실험과 실제 실험을 통해 본 신호 처리 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하였으며 결과적으로 이러한 신호처리 알고리즘이 광섬유 가속도계의 동적 구간을 손쉽게 조절할 수 있는 효과적인 방법임을 보여주었다.

PURPOSES : This paper presents a comparison study between dynamic and static analyses of falling weight deflectometer (FWD) testing, which is a test used for evaluating layered material stiffness. METHODS: In this study, a forward model, based on nonlinear subgrade models, was developed via finite element analysis using ABAQUS. The subgrade material coefficients from granular and fine-grained soils were used to represent strong and weak subgrade stiffnesses, respectively. Furthermore, the nonlinearity in the analysis of multi-load FWD deflection measured from intact PCC slab was investigated using the deflection data obtained in this study. This pavement has a 14-inch-thick PCC slab over fine-grained soil. RESULTS: From case studies related to the nonlinearity of FWD analysis measured from intact PCC slab, a nonlinear subgrade model-based comparison study between the static and dynamic analyses of nondestructive FWD tests was shown to be effectively performed; this was achieved by investigating the primary difference in pavement responses between the static and dynamic analyses as based on the nonlinearity of soil model as well as the multi-load FWD deflection. CONCLUSIONS : In conclusion, a comparison between dynamic and static FEM analyses was conducted, as based on the FEM analysis performed on various pavement structures, in order to investigate the significance of the differences in pavement responses between the static and dynamic analyses.
