본 연구에서는 마찰력에 따른 TMD의 작동-정지조건과 각 조건에 따른 운동방정식을 정리하고, TMD의 마찰계수가 풍진동 제어성능에 미치는 영향을 수치해석을 통하여 확인하였다. 일반적인 하중과 달리 풍하중은 크기와 방향의 변화가 크기 때문에 TMD 는 마찰력에 의하여 작동-정지상태를 반복하게 되므로, TMD의 마찰계수를 주요 변수로 설정하였다. 또한 외부하중의 크기, 구조물의 진동수, TMD의 질량비도 매개변수로 설정하여 TMD의 제진성능에 대한 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 자유진동, 조화강제진동, 풍진동에 대한 수치해석의 결과, 외부하중의 크기가 작고, 구조물의 진동수가 낮을수록 마찰계수에 의한 TMD의 제진성능의 손실이 커질 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 초고층 건물에 대한 TMD 설계시 마찰계수의 영향을 반드시 고려하여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

자갈 궤도는 부설 후 궤도틀림이 발생하여 지속적인 유지·보수 작업이 필요하다. 이를 개선하기 위하여 기존의 자갈 궤도 에 급속경화 모르타르를 주입하여 단시간 내에 콘크리트 궤도로 치환할 수 있는 급속경화궤도가 개발되었다. 교량에 부설되 는 급속경화궤도는 교량과 궤도의 거동을 일치시키기 위하여 후설치 앵커를 궤도 세그먼트 중앙부에 시공한다. 본 논문은 앵커로 교량과 연결된 급속경화궤도와 교량의 궤도-교량 상호작용 해석을 수행하여 레일 및 앵커의 안전성을 검토하였다. 이때 앵커의 강성 및 강도, 급속경화 콘크리트의 재령, 급속경화궤도와 교량 사이의 마찰을 고려하였다. 이를 바탕으로 급속 경화궤도 부설 후 적절한 앵커의 설치시기 및 열차 정상운행 가능시기를 검토하였다.

This study develops a new hybrid passive energy dissipation device for seismic rehabilitation of an existing structure. The device is composed of a friction damper combined with a steel plate with vertical slits as a hysteretic damper. Analytical model is developed for the device, and the capacity of the hybrid device to satisfy a given target performance is determined based on the ASCE/SEI 7-10 process. The effect of the device is verified by nonlinear dynamic analyses using seven earthquake records. The analysis results show that the dissipated inelastic energy is concentrated on the hybrid damper and the maximum interstory drift of the SMRF with damping system satisfies the requirement of the current code.

In order to improve the seismic performance of structures, friction pendulum system (FPS) is the most commonly used seismic isolation device in addition to lead rubber bearing (LRB) in high seismicity area. In a nuclear power plant (NPP) with a large self weight, it is necessary to install a large number of seismic isolation devices, and the position of the center of rigidity varies depending on the arrangement of the seismic isolation devices. Due to the increase in the eccentricity, which is the difference between the center of gravity of the nuclear structure and the center of stiffness of the seismic isolators, an excessive seismic response may occur which could not be considered at the design stage. Three different types of eccentricity models (CASE 1, CASE 2, and CASE 3) were used for seismic response evaluation of seismically isolated NPP due to the increase of eccentricity (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%). The analytical model of the seismic isolation system was compared using the equivalent linear model and the bilinear model. From the results of the seismic response of the seismically isolated NPP with increasing eccentricity, it can be observed that the effect of eccentricity on the seismic response for the equivalent linear model is larger than that for the bilinear model.

This study was discussed with the friction effects due to surface roughness of the interface between the base material and a reinforcement at the downward inclined interfacial crack under shear loading. The fracture parameter are analyzed by finite element method of the ANSYS. As the friction coefficient of the surface is assumed zero and 0.3, the fracture is analyzed. This study was analyzed with inclination angles about 0 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees. As the results, at the inclination angle of 0, the energy release rate is reduced by about 3%. About 16%, and 2% are decreased at 45 degree and 90 degree respectively. If the inclination angle is 45 degrees, the friction effect by the sliding resistance between the interface was found to be most effective.

In this study, SM45C-STKM13B hollow shaft of different thickness was joined by friction welding. After friction welding, we treated to specimen of annealing(post-weld heat treatment). The specimens were tested as-welded and post-weld heat treatment(PWHT). The mechanical properties including tensile test and vickers micro-hardness were examined. And then, the mechanical properties were compared for as-welded and PWHT in SM45C to STKM13B. Microstructure of joining part were examined in the weld interface and weld region and heat affected zone and base metal of weld parts.

This study was carried out to investigate the optimum condition of a friction stir welding process for a joint of AA2219-T87 and AA2195-T8 dissimilar aluminum alloys. These alloys are known to have good cryogenic properties, and as such to be suitable for use in fuel tanks of space vehicles. The welding parameters include the travelling speed, rotation speed and rotation direction of the tool. The experiment was conducted under conditions in which the travelling speed of the tool was 120-300 mm/min and the rotation speed of the tool was 400-800 rpm. To investigate the effect of the rotation direction of the tool, the joining was performed by switching the positions of the two dissimilar alloys. After welding, the microstructure was observed and the micro-hardness were measured; non-destructive evaluation was carried out to perform tensile tests on defect-free specimens. The result was that the microstructure of the weld joint underwent dynamic recrystallization due to sufficient deformation and frictional heat. The travelling speed of the tool had little effect on the properties of the joint, but the properties of the joint varied with the rotation speed of the tool. The conditions for the best joining properties were 600 rpm and 180-240 mm/min when the AA2219-T8 alloy was on the retreating side(RS).

This study was carried out to evaluate the developed microstructures and mechanical properties of friction welded A6063 alloy. For this work, specimens were prepared at a size of 12 mm Ø × 80 mm, and friction welding was carried out at a rotation speed of 2,000 RPM, friction pressure of 12 kgf/cm² and upset pressure of 25 kgf/cm². To perform an analysis of the grain boundary characteristic distributions, such as the grain size, orientation and misorientation angle distributions, the electron back-scattering diffraction method was used. In addition, in order to identify the dispersed intermetallic compounds of the base and welded materials, transmission electron microscopy was used. The experimental results found that the application of friction welding on A6063 led to significant grain refinement of the welded zone relative to that of the base material. Besides this, intermetallic compounds such as AlMnSi and Al2Cu were found to be dispersed with more refined size relative to that of the base material. This formation retains the mechanical properties of the welds, which results in the fracture aspect at the base material zone. Therefore, based on the developed microstructures and mechanical properties, the application of friction welding on A6063 could be used to obtain a sound weld zone.

In order to use PUR/CuO Composites as the sealing materials for ships equipment, this research has been performed. PUR/CuO composites are produced by using ultrasonic waves. The increase of CuO leads to increase in the tensile strength and shore hardness. The cumulative wear volume shows a tendency to increase in proportional to sliding distance. As the CuO particles of these composites indicated, the friction coefficient was slightly increased. The major failure mechanisms were lapping layers, deformation of matrix, plowing, debonding of particles and microcracking by scanning electric microscopy photograph of the wear tested surface.

The study presents technology which can decrease the vibration of railroad station via adopting a friction bearing system beneath a platform. The platform itself then constitutes a tuned mass damper system (TMD) as the bearing provides stiffness and damping of the TMD system. To increase the robustness of the TMD system, the bearing system with adjustable stiffness is utilized. The vibration reduction performance of the TMD system is verified via numerical analysis on an elevated railroad station known as having a structural type with highest noise and vibration level. The numerical analysis is performed using a commercial program, ABAQUS. The vibration analysis is performed considering vehicle-track-structure interaction. The result of the numerical analysis shows that the TMD technology can reduce significant amount of vibration of a railroad station.

The friction pendulum system(FPS) is a kind of seismic isolation devices for isolating structures from an earthquake. To analyze the effect of friction materials used in the friction pendulum system, fragility analysis of LNG tank with seismic isolation system was conducted. In this study, titanium dioxide(TiO2) nanoparticles were incorporated into polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF) matrix to produce friction materials attached to the FPS. The base moment of the concrete outer tank and the acceleration of the structure were evaluated from different mixing ratios of constituents for the friction materials. The seismic fragility curves were developed based on two types of limit state. It is confirmed that evaluation of combined fragility curves with several limit states can be applied to select the optimum friction material satisfying the required performance of the FPS for various infrastructure.

We synthesized potassium hexatitanate, (K2Ti6O13, PT6), with a non-fibrous shape, by acid leaching and subsequent thermal treatment of potassium tetratitanate (K2Ti4O9, PT4), with layered crystal structure. By controlling nucleation and growth of PT4 crystals, we obtained splinter-type crystals of PT6 with increased width and reduced thickness. The optimal holding temperature for the layered PT4 was found to be ~920 oC. The length and width of the PT4 crystals were increased when the nucleation and growth time were increased. After a proton exchange reaction using aqueous 0.3 M HCl solution, and subsequent heat treatment at 850 oC, the PT4 crystal transformed into splinter-type PT6 crystals. The frictional characteristics of the friction materials show that as the particle size of PT6 increases, the coefficient of friction (COF) and wear amounts of both the friction materials and counter disc increase.
