In this study, the seismic safety of nuclear power plant structures is evaluated and verified by performing a vibration test on a relatively simple shear wall structure. The shear walls are the prominent members of nuclear power plants and resist the seismic load. The shear wall structure is designed and manufactured to perform shaking table tests and is used to increase the accuracy of the analytical method by comparing them with the numerical analysis results. Different results will be checked and more efficient application methods will be studied depending on the method of designing reinforced concrete structures.

After the manual shutdown of the Wolseong nuclear power plant due to an earthquake in Gyeongju in 2016, anxiety about the earthquake safety of nuclear power plants has become a major social issue. The shear wall structure used as a major structural element in nuclear power plants is widely used as a major structural member because of its high resistance to horizontal loads such as earthquakes. However, due to the complexity of the structure, it is challenging to predict the dynamic characteristics of the structure. In this study, a three-story shear wall structure is fabricated, and the in-structure response characteristics of the shear wall structure are evaluated through shaking table tests. The test is performed using the Gyeongju earthquake that occurred in 2016, and the response characteristics due to the domestic earthquake are evaluated.

Most of speakers, the con-paper (con shape) or vibration plate generate the sound by reciprocating motion which is received vibrating signal from voice coil. On the other hand, the vibration speaker that reproduces sound by attaching a vibration head to some materials such as wood, plastic, glass plate, etc. instead of cone paper or vibration plate generates different sound timbres depending on the attached materials with vibration head. so we can hear a variety of timbres than ordinary speakers. In this study, the characteristics of vibration and sound propagation according to various materials attached to the vibration head of the vibration speaker were experimentally investigated and this sound propagation characteristics were compare with woofer speaker and micro speaker. As a result of sound propagation characteristics of vibration speaker, the reproduction ability of low frequency band wes inferior to compared than woofer speaker and micro speaker. This is judged to be due to the material characteristics of glass and wood which are source of the sound propagation. As compare with 1kHz sine tone, the woofer speaker has not generated the high order harmonic component, but the glass plate and wood plate used with the vibration speaker head have generated the high order harmonic component at a level that can not be ignored. According to above results, the vibration speaker will be had a low articulation of sound because the higher volume to generate the high distortion.

선박 및 해양구조물과 같은 대형 유한요소모델의 진동 특성을 평가하기 위해 고유치 해석 및 가진 주파수에 따른 응답 계산을 필수적으로 수행해야 한다. 하지만 이러한 해석들은 과도한 전산 장비와 계산 시간이 요구되어 고성능 해석 프로그램의 개발이 필요하다. 특히 선형연립방정식에서 발생하는 역행렬 계산 및 고유치 해석 시에는 상당한 전산 해석 시간이 발생하기 때문에 최신 고성능 라이브러리를 적용함으로써 이를 개선할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 병렬식 선형연립방정식 계산 라이브러리인 PARDISO와 고성능 고유치 해석 라이 브러리인 ARPACK을 적용하여 빠르고 정확한 해석이 가능한 진동해석 프로그램을 개발하였다. 끝으로 개발된 해석 프로그램의 정확도와 효율성을 검증하기 위해 여러 선박해양공학 수치 예제를 사용하였고, 상용 유한요소 프로그램인 ABAQUS와의 결과 비교 검토를 통해 개발된 진동해석 프로그램의 신뢰성을 검증, 제시하였다.

The new thermal management models of linear compressors have been recently reported. These models adopt the simplified transient flow effects to shorten the excessive analysis time. Among the unsteady flow effects of the linear compressor, the effect of the gap flow between the compressor housing and the body due to the body vibration on the heat transfer performance was studied in this paper. For this study, a numerical analysis for the unsteady axisymmetric flows was performed by using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). The results show that the high-speed refrigerant flows occurred in the gap between the compressor housing and the body, which contribute to increasing the heat transfer from high temperature refrigerants in the housing to the outside air. In addition, as the gap decreases, the refrigerant flow rate through the gap increases and the heat transfer rate increases as well.

A new lighting support structure composing of two-way wires and pulley, a pulley-type wireway system, was developed to improve the seismic performance of a ceiling type lighting equipment. This study verifies the seismic performance of the pulley-type wireway system using a numerical approach. A theoretical model fitted to the physical features of the newly-developed system was proposed, and it was utilized to compute a frictional coefficient between the wire and pulley sections under tension forces. The frictional coefficient was implemented to a finite element model representing the pulley-type wireway system. Using the numerical model, the seismic responses of the pulley-type wireway system were compared to those of the existing lighting support structure, a one-way wire system. The addition of the pulley component resulted in the increasement of energy absorption capacity as well as friction effect and showed in significant reduction in maximum displacement and oscillation after the peak responses. Thus, the newly-developed wireway system can minimize earthquake-induced vibration and damage on electric equipment.

High-performance vehicles with V6 or higher are designed with a dual exhaust system to satisfy both performance and quietness at the same time, and have a confluence geometry for the purpose of stably maintaining the back pressure inside the pipe. The exhaust system generates noise and vibration under the influence of the rotating engine. In particular, in a state such as idling, vibration occurs in a certain frequency range, which may affect the natural vibration of the exhaust system. Therefore, in this study, the optimal shape is proposed by comparing the ignition frequency calculated based on the vibration measurement result in the idle state and the numerical analysis result.

Earthquake preparedness has become more important with recent increase in the number of earthquakes in Korea, but many existing structures are not prepared for earthquakes. There are various types of liquefaction prevention method that can be applied, such as compaction, replacement, dewatering, and inhibition of shear strain. However, most of the liquefaction prevention methods are applied before construction, and it is important to find optimal methods that can be applied to existing structures and that have few effects on the environment, such as noise, vibration, and changes in underground water level. The purpose of this study is to estimate the correlation between the displacement of a structure and variations of pore water pressure on the ground in accordance with the depth of the sheet file when liquidation occurs. To achieve this, a shaking table test was performed for Joo-Mun-Jin standard sand and an earth pressure, accelerometer, pore water pressure transducer, and LVDT were installed in both the non-liquefiable layer and the liquefiable layer to measure the subsidence and excess pore water pressure in accordance with the time of each embedded depth. Then the results were analyzed. A comparison of the pore water pressure in accordance with Hsp/Hsl was shown to prevent lateral water flow at 1, 0.85 and confirmed that the pore water pressure increased. In addition, the relationship between Hsp/Hsl and subsidence was expressed as a trend line to calculate the expected settlement rate formula for the embedded depth ratio.

본 논문은 모노파일 풍력 지지구조물에 대한 공진 안전성 평가에서 여러 말뚝-구조물 상호작용(PSI) 모델을 사용하여 고유진동수를 비교하였다. PSI 재현을 위한 유한요소모델은 기저 스프링 모델, 분산 스프링 모델, 3차원 고체-쉘 모델을 사용하였다. PSI 모델이 고유주파수에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 기저 스프링과 분산 스프링 모델 적용을 위한 강성행렬 산정법과 Winkler 보 모델을 각각 논문에 나타내고 이들 모델로부터 도출된 서로 다른 기하 및 지반조건을 갖는 모노파일의 고유진동수를 조사하였다. 해석 결과는 또한 3차원 고체-쉘 모델의 고유진동수와도 비교되었다. 해석결과는 소구경 모노파일이 견고한 지반 및 암반에 관입된 경우 각 해석모델로부터 얻어진 고유진동수의 차이가 거의 없음을 보여준다. 반면 연약 지반에 설치된 대구경 모노파일에 대해 분산 스프링 모델은 고유진동수를 과대평가할 수 있다. 따라서 고유진동수 평가 시 구조물 규모와 지반 조건을 고려해 적합한 PSI모델이 적용되어야 한다.

Recently, deep learning that is the most popular and effective class of machine learning algorithms is widely applied to various industrial areas. A number of research on various topics about structural engineering was performed by using artificial neural networks, such as structural design optimization, vibration control and system identification etc. When nonlinear semi-active structural control devices are applied to building structure, a lot of computational effort is required to predict dynamic structural responses of finite element method (FEM) model for development of control algorithm. To solve this problem, an artificial neural network model was developed in this study. Among various deep learning algorithms, a recurrent neural network (RNN) was used to make the time history response prediction model. An RNN can retain state from one iteration to the next by using its own output as input for the next step. An eleven-story building structure with semi-active tuned mass damper (TMD) was used as an example structure. The semi-active TMD was composed of magnetorheological damper. Five historical earthquakes and five artificial ground motions were used as ground excitations for training of an RNN model. Another artificial ground motion that was not used for training was used for verification of the developed RNN model. Parametric studies on various hyper-parameters including number of hidden layers, sequence length, number of LSTM cells, etc. After appropriate training iteration of the RNN model with proper hyper-parameters, the RNN model for prediction of seismic responses of the building structure with semi-active TMD was developed. The developed RNN model can effectively provide very accurate seismic responses compared to the FEM model.
