New motor development requires high-speed load testing using dynamo equipment to calculate the efficiency of the motor. Abnormal noise and vibration may occur in the test equipment rotating at high speed due to misalignment of the connecting shaft or looseness of the fixation, which may lead to safety accidents. In this study, three single-axis vibration sensors for X, Y, and Z axes were attached on the surface of the test motor to measure the vibration value of vibration. Analog data collected from these sensors was used in classification models for anomaly detection. Since the classification accuracy was around only 93%, commonly used hyperparameter optimization techniques such as Grid search, Random search, and Bayesian Optimization were applied to increase accuracy. In addition, Response Surface Method based on Design of Experiment was also used for hyperparameter optimization. However, it was found that there were limits to improving accuracy with these methods. The reason is that the sampling data from an analog signal does not reflect the patterns hidden in the signal. Therefore, in order to find pattern information of the sampling data, we obtained descriptive statistics such as mean, variance, skewness, kurtosis, and percentiles of the analog data, and applied them to the classification models. Classification models using descriptive statistics showed excellent performance improvement. The developed model can be used as a monitoring system that detects abnormal conditions of the motor test.

Earthquakes of magnitude 3.0 or greater occur in Korea about 10 times on average yearly, and the number of earthquakes occurring in Korea is increasing. As many earthquakes have recently occurred, interest in the safety of nuclear power plants has increased. Nuclear power plants are equipped with many cabinet-type control facilities to regulate safety facilities, and function maintenance is required during an earthquake. The seismic performance of the cabinet is divided into structural and functional performances. Structural performance can be secured during the design procedure. Functional performance depends on the vibration performance of the component. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the seismic performance of the components. Generally, seismic performance is confirmed through seismic simulation tests. When checking seismic performance through seismic simulation tests, it is difficult to determine the effect of frequency and maximum acceleration on an element. In this paper, shaking table tests were performed using various frequencies and various maximum accelerations. The seismic performance characteristics of the functions of electrical equipment components were confirmed through tests.

And through analysis and experimental research, it was confirmed that the development of a vibratory bowl feeder for supplying ultra-thin parts was successful.

최근 유기농산물에 대한 선호가 증가하고 있다. 유기농산물 생산에 있어 물리적 제초는 필수적이다. 하지만, 국내 밭 제초작업 기계화율은 60% 미만으로 낮으며, 농촌 인구의 고령화·여성화로 소형 제초기의 개발이 필요하다. 또한, 제초기의 경우 사용자가 반복적 진동에 노출되기 때문에 이를 절감할 수 있는 노력이 필요하나, 이에 대한 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 여성·고령 농업인도 사용하기 편리한 전동 배부식 중경제초기를 개발하는 데 있어 수평 회전식 원판에 부착된 제초날의 형상(원형, 삼각형, 일자형) 및 폭(15, 20, 25mm)에 따른 제초성능 및 ISO5349-1에 따라 손에 전달되는 진동을 분석하였다. 제초율은 원형 제초날에서 90.4~96.4%로 가장 높게 나타났으며, 진동 또한 원형 제초날을 사용하였을 때 사용자의 10%가 수지백증이 발병하는데 걸리는 시간이 20년 내외로 삼각형 및 일자형 제초날을 사용했을 때 보다 200% 가량 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 원형 제초날을 사용하였을 때 진동을 감소시킬 수 있으며, 불필요한 반력을 줄여 높은 제초효과를 볼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

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.

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.

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.

The customer of massage chair is expanding day by day from middle age to all ages. In 2018, the market size was 700 billion KRW, an increase of 30 times over 10 years. However, most related SMEs suffer from excessive competition by the market monopoly of some major companies. In this situation, in order for a related company to survive, it is necessary to steadily research and develop new products. Founded in 2009, company L produces massage chairs for health and relaxation of customers. L’s products use a sound wave vibration module that is favorable for human body, unlike other products that use vibration motor type. However, frequent breakdowns of massage chair due to the vulnerability of plate (leaf) springs, which play an important role in sound wave vibration modules, made sap its competitiveness. In this paper, we propose a method to design desirable plate spring structure by sequentially experimenting with five different plate springs. The results of this study are expected to contribute to improve the quality of plate spring and the reliability of sound wave vibration module. In the future, it is necessary to find a way to use it in the development of foot massage or scalp management device as well as continuous research to find optimal plate spring structure through various analysis.

Wireless sensors are more favorable in measuring structural response compared to conventional sensors in terms of them being easier to use with no issues with cables and them being considerably cheaper. Previous tests have been conducted to analyze the performance of MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) sensor in sinusoidal excitation tests. This paper analyzes the performance of in-built MEMS sensors in devices by comparing with an ICP sensor as the reference. Earthquake input amplitude excitation in shaking table tests was done. Results show that MEMS sensors are more accurate in measuring higher input amplitude measurements which range from 100gal to 250gal than at lower input amplitudes which range from 10gal to 50gal. This confirms the results obtained in previous sinusoidal tests. It was also seen that natural frequency results have lower error values which range from 0% to 3.92% in comparison to the response spectra results. This also confirms that in-built MEMS sensors in mobile devices are good at estimating natural frequency of structures. In addition, it was also seen that earthquake input amplitudes with more frequency contents (Gyeongju) had considerably higher error values than Pohang excitation tests which has less frequency contents.

In this study, the yaw misalignment value of wind turbine was measured using Lidar and it was analyzed the effect of vibration reduction and power performance improvement when applied to turbine. It was confirmed that the vibration of the main bearing and the gear box of the wind turbine was partially reduced. Also it was found that the output performance was improved when the wind speed was over 8m/s. As a result, it was also found that the annual energy production(AEP) was improved when the average annual wind speed of the wind farm was over 6m/s. Converted to AEP, the AEP improved about 1% and 4%, when the annual wind speed was 6m/s and 11m/s respectively, which resulted in an improvement of about 1~4% through the yaw misalignment correction of the wind turbine.

Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) sensors have been widely used in Structural Health Monitoring due to their convenience and lower costs in comparison to conventional sensors. Triggered measurements are relevant in events such as earthquakes because unlike continuous measurements, they only record the structural response once an event happens. This is more cost effective and it makes the data more manageable because only the required measurements from the event are recorded. The most common method of triggering is amplitude triggering. However, lower input amplitudes (less than 0.1g) cannot be triggered by using this method. In this paper, sound triggering was introduced to allow triggered measurements for lower input amplitude values. The performance of the sound triggering and amplitude triggering were compared by a series of shaking- table tests. It was seen that sound- triggering method has a wider frequency (0.5~10Hz) and amplitude (0.01~1.0g) range of measurements. In addition, the sound triggering method performs better than the amplitude triggering method at lower amplitudes. The performance of the amplitude triggering, in terms of the triggering being simultaneous improves at higher input amplitudes.

Wireless sensors are more favorable in measuring structural response compared to conventional sensors. This is because they are easier to use with no issues with cables and are considerably cheaper. There are several applications that can be used in recording and analyzing data from MEMS sensor installed on an iPhone. The Vibration App is one of the applications used and there has not been adequate research conducted in analyzing the performance of this App. This paper analyzed the performance of the Vibration App by comparing it with the performance of an ICP sensor. Results show that natural frequency results are more accurate (error less than 5%) in comparison to the amplitude results. This means that built- in MEMS sensor in smartphones are good at estimating natural frequency of structures. In addition, it was seen that the results became more accurate at higher frequencies (5.0Hz and 10.0Hz).

A base isolation system is widely used to reduce seismic responses of low-rise buildings. This system cannot be effectively applied to high-rise buildings because the initial stiffness of the high-rise building with the base isolation system maintains almost the same as the building without the base isolation system to set the yield shear force of the base isolation system larger than the design wind load. To solve this problem, the mid-story isolation system was proposed and applied to many buildings. The mid-story isolation system has two major objectives; first to reduce peak story drift and second to reduce peak drift of the isolation story. Usually, these two objectives are in conflict. In this study, a hybrid mid-story isolation system for a tall building is proposed. A MR (magnetorheological) damper was used to develop the hybrid mid-story isolation system. An existing building with mid-story isolation system, that is “Shiodome Sumitomo Building” a high rise building having a large atrium in the lower levels, was used for control performance evaluation of the hybrid mid-story isolation system. Fuzzy logic controller and genetic algorithm were used to develop the control algorithm for the hybrid mid-story isolation system. It can be seen from analytical results that the hybrid mid-story isolation system can provide better control performance than the ordinary mid-story isolation system and the design process developed in this study is useful for preliminary design of the hybrid mid-story isolation system for a tall building.

Since the 2010 year, an occurring number of grand scale earthquakes which above magnitude 5.0 have increased in the world. Many types of research that deal with reducing the damage to the structure from a large-scale earthquake have proceeded. A system which could mitigate strong vertical earthquake's acceleration might apply to structure, since big earthquake cases that occurred lots of loss in Tokyo and Kobe of Japan. A plenty of bearings have installed to mitigate vibration but many parts of these lack efficient ability what we want. In addition, former vertical isolation bearings to apply for the structure have both price and size limits according to material characteristics. Therefore, this paper proposes a new type of device that is made by utilized engineering plastic and improves hitherto used vertical isolation bearing's fault.
