This paper introduces a study on measuring the 3D vibration displacement of plate structure using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) applied to stereo digital continuous camera images. The proposed method is a non-contact 3D displacement measurement method that does not require physical sensors to be attached to the structure, and it has the advantage of simultaneously measuring dynamic displacements at multiple points on the structure. Theoretically, multiple cameras can be used, but in this study, two cameras were used to capture continuous images of the vibrating structure, and the image coordinates of multiple tracking points at arbitrary positions on the structure were measured using correlation matching. Using these image coordinates as input data, the dynamic 3D positions were calculated through Space intersection, successfully determining the 3D dynamic displacements. The measured dynamic displacements were validated for accuracy by comparing them with values measured by laser displacement sensors. And frequencies of measured data were validated by comparing with computational modal analysis by Finite Element Model (FEM).

해상풍력발전 시장의 성장과 함께 해상풍력발전기 설치 선 시장에 대한 기대감이 커지고 있다. 해상풍력발전 시장 내 2030년까 지 약 100척의 설치 선이 필요할 것으로 전망되고 있다. 척당 가격이 3,000∼4,000억 원이라서 일반 운반선보다 고부가가치 시장이다. 특 히, 풍력발전기 용량이 11MW 이상의 대형 설치 선의 수요가 커지고 있다. 중국을 중심으로 아시아 해상풍력발전기 시장의 급성장으로 이 지역에서 운용 가능한 설치 선에 대한 발주에 대한 협의가 많다. 아시아권역 대부분의 해저 지질은 지지 반력이 작은 점토층으로 구성되 어 있다. 이러한 특성에 의해서 설치 선이 작업을 위해 수면 밖으로 오르고 내림 시 스퍼드캔(Spudcan)과 레그(Leg)의 관입 깊이가 크게 발 생한다. 연구에서는 최소 3m에서 최대 21m까지 관입 변수를 이용하여 관입 깊이에 따른 고유 진동 주기, 레그의 구조 안전성 평가 그리고 전복 안전성 지수를 평가하였다. 관입 깊이가 증가하면 고유 진동 주기가 짧아지고, 레그의 모멘트 길이가 짧아져서 구조 강도의 여유 치 가 증가한다. 모든 입사각에서 전복 모멘트에 대해 안전하며, 최댓값은 270도에서 발생한다. 본 연구를 통하여 검토된 조건들은 연약 지반 에서 설치 선의 운용 절차서를 작성 시 관입 깊이에 따라서 레그를 어떻게 운용해야 하는지 판단할 수 있는 중요한 자료로 활용할 수 있 다. 결론적으로 관입 깊이에 따른 레그 구조 안전성을 정확히 파악하는 것은 설치 선의 안전과 직결된 문제이다.

A new clamped mechanical splice system was proposed to develop structural performance and constructability for precast concrete connections. The proposed mechanical splice resists external loading immediately after the engagement. The mechanical splices applicable for both large-scale rebars for plants and small-scale rebars for buildings were developed with the same design concept. Quasi-static lateral cyclic loading tests were conducted with reinforced and precast concrete members to verify the seismic performance. Also, shaking table tests with three types of seismic wave excitation, 1) random wave with white noise, 2) the 2016 Gyeongju earthquake, and 3) the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake, were conducted to confirm the dynamic performance. All tests were performed with real-scale concrete specimens. Sensors measured the lateral load, acceleration, displacement, crack pattern, and secant system stiffness, and energy dissipation was determined by lateral load-displacement relation. As a result, the precast specimen provided the emulative performance with RC. In the shaking table tests, PC frames’ maximum acceleration and displacement response were amplified 1.57 - 2.85 and 2.20 - 2.92 times compared to the ground motions. The precast specimens utilizing clamped mechanical splice showed ductile behavior with energy dissipation capacity against strong motion earthquakes.

As the frequency of seismic disasters in Korea has increased rapidly since 2016, interest in systematic maintenance and crisis response technologies for structures has been increasing. A data-based leading management system of Lifeline facilities is important for rapid disaster response. In particular, the water supply network, one of the major Lifeline facilities, must be operated by a systematic maintenance and emergency response system for stable water supply. As one of the methods for this, the importance of the structural health monitoring(SHM) technology has emerged as the recent continuous development of sensor and signal processing technology. Among the various types of SHM, because all machines generate vibration, research and application on the efficiency of a vibration-based SHM are expanding. This paper reviews a vibration-based pipeline SHM system for seismic disaster response of water supply pipelines including types of vibration sensors, the current status of vibration signal processing technology and domestic major research on structural pipeline health monitoring, additionally with application plan for existing pipeline operation system.

A theoretical model has been studied to describe the sound radiation analysis for structure vibration noise of tire under the action of random moving line forces. When a tire is analyzed, it had been modeled as curved beams with distributed springs and dashpots that represent the radial, tangential stiffness and damping of tire, respectively. The reaction due to fluid loading on the vibratory response of the curved beam is taken into account. The curved beam is assumed to occupy the plane y=0 and to be axially infinite. The curved beam material and elastic foundation are assumed to be lossless Bernoulli-Euler beam theory including a tension force(T), damping coefficient (C) and stiffness of foundation(κ2) will be employed. The expression for sound power is integrated numerically and the results examined as a function of Mach number(M), wave-number ratio(γ) and stiffness factor(ψ). The experimental investigation for structure vibration noise of vehicle tire under the action of random moving line forces has been made. Based on the STSF(Spatial Transformation of Sound Field) techniques, the sound power and sound radiation are measured. Results strongly suggest that operation condition in the tire material properties and design factors of the tire govern the sound power and sound radiation characteristics.

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.

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.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the distribution patterns of displacement and acceleration fields in a nonlinear soil ground based on the interaction of high-speed train, wheel, rail, and ground. For this purpose, a high-speed train in motion was modeled as the actual wheel, and the vertical contact of wheel and rail and the lateral contact, caused by meandering motion, were simulated; this simulation was based on the moving mass analysis. The soil ground part was given the nonlinear behavior of the upper ground part by using the modified the Drucker– Prager model, and the changes in displacement and acceleration were compared with the behavior of the elastic and inelastic grounds. Using this analysis, the displacement and acceleration ranges close to the actual ground behavior were addressed. Additionally, the von-Mises stress and equivalent plastic strain at the ground were examined. Further, the equivalent plastic and total volumetric strains at each failure surface were examined. The variation in stresses, such as vertical stress, transverse pressure, and longitudinal restraint pressure of wheel-rail contact, with the time history was investigated using moving mass. In the case of nonlinear ground model, the displacement difference obtained based on the train travel is not large when compared to that of the elastic ground model, while the acceleration is caused to generate a large decrease.

In 2016, an earthquake occurred at Gyeongju, Korea. At the Wolsong site, the observed peak ground acceleration was lower than the operating basis earthquake (OBE) level of Wolsong nuclear power plant. However, the measured spectral acceleration value exceeded the spectral acceleration of the operating-basis earthquake (OBE) level in some sections of the response spectrum, resulting in a manual shutdown of the nuclear power plant. Analysis of the response spectra shape of the Gyeongju earthquake motion showed that the high-frequency components are stronger than the response spectra shape used in nuclear power plant design. Therefore, the seismic performance evaluation of structures and equipment of nuclear power plants should be made to reflect the characteristics of site-specific earthquakes. In general, the floor response spectrum shape at the installation site or the generalized response spectrum shape is used for the seismic performance evaluation of structures and equipment. In this study, a generalized response spectrum shape is proposed for seismic performance evaluation of structures and equipment for nuclear power plants. The proposed response spectrum shape reflects the characteristics of earthquake motion in Korea through earthquake hazard analysis, and it can be applied to structures and equipment at various locations.

In this study, the structural stability of an align unit was studied to investigate the deformation and vibration characteristics of the upper and lower modules of the align unit during LCD panel transfer. The align unit consists of upper module and lower module. SolidWorks Simulation was used to analyze the structure, fatigue, and modes, to understand the deformation and vibration of the stiffness of the align unit. Because of the upper eccentric structure of the align unit, the main strain was large at the contact of the upper and lower modules and at the bottom of the support, and more pronounced at it’s front. The stress was large in the front support of the upper and lower modules, and the displacement was observed in the front of the upper module. The minimum life cycle that indicates the structural integrity of the align unit has exceeded its usable number. Also, the increase in natural frequency of the align unit gradually slowed down, as the vibration mode increased.

The structural performance of a vehicle can be evaluated by the static and dynamic structural analyses which predict the amounts of deformation & stiffness, and the static analysis should be done first. Another important aspect to be considered in the design process is crashworthiness, because a structurally sturdy vehicle body may be overdesigned with the excessive strength and durability standards. The ideal condition of a body structure is to absorb the impact load at a certain level of local deformation, to distribute the load to each structure adequately, and to prevent the excessive stress concentration and deformation. This paper is the result of the consideration of vibration characteristic for structure stiffness estimation of automotive body through the finite element modeling.

최근 국내에서 육상 및 해상을 통한 소외 정상운반 시 진동 및 충격하중에 대한 사용후핵연료의 건전성 평가 기술 개발이 수행되고 있다. 이와 관련된 국내 연구사례는 전무하여 기존에 진행된 또는 현재 수행중인 해외연구사례를 조사하여 국내 연구에 참고하고자 한다. 2000년 이전 과거 미국의 사용후핵연료의 정상운반 시 진동 및 충격하중 측정 관련 연구현황을 조사 하였고 2009년부터 미국국립연구소 주관으로 실시한 단축가진시험, 콘크리트블럭 트럭운반시험, 다축가진시험에 대해서 조사하였으며 2017년 미국 SNL, 스페인의 ENSA, 한국이 공동으로 수행한 복합운반시험을 상세히 조사하였다. 시험 준비과정, 절차, 가속도 및 변형률 측정결과, 유한요소 및 다물체동역학 해석과정 등이 조사되었다. 각 시험 별로 측정된 변형률 자료를 바탕으로 사용후핵연료 피로곡선과 비교한 결과 손상을 일으키기에는 매우 미미한 정도의 변형률이 발생한다는 초기 결론을 얻었음을 확인하였다. 하지만 현재 결론은 일부 결과만을 검토한 예비 결론으로 상세한 검토가 현재 미국에서 진행 중이다. 미국에서 지금까지 수행한 사용후핵연료의 정상운반조건에서의 진동 및 충격하중 측정과 관련하여 조사된 내용은, 국내 운반환경에서 사용후핵연료의 정상운반시험을 수행할 때 참고할만한 유용한 자료라 판단된다.

Large space structures exhibit different natural vibration characteristics depending on the aspect ratio of structures such as half-open angle. In addition, since the actual large space structure is mostly supported by the lower structure, it is expected that the natural vibration characteristics of the upper structure and the entire structure will vary depending on the lower structure. Therefore, in this study, the natural vibration characteristics of the dome structure are analyzed according to the natural frequency ratio by controlling the stiffness of the substructure. As the natural frequency of the substructure increases, the natural frequency of the whole structure increases similarly to the natural frequency of the upper structure. Vertical vibration modes dominate at 30° and 45°, and horizontal vibration modes dominate at 60° and 90°.
