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).

This study numerically compares optimum solutions generated by element- and node-wise topology optimization designs for free vibration structures, where element-and node-wise denote the use of element and nodal densities as design parameters, respectively. For static problems optimal solution comparisons of the two types for topology optimization designs have already been introduced by the author and many other researchers, and the static structural design is very common. In dynamic topology optimization problems the objective is in general related to maximum Eigenfrequency optimization subject to a given material limit since structures with a high fundamental frequency tend to be reasonable stiff for static loads. Numerical applications topologically maximizing the first natural Eigenfrequency verify the difference of solutions between element-and node-wise topology optimum designs.

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.

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.

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.

바람하중을 받는 고층건물의 진동을 저감하기 위한 다양한 진동제어장치가 적용되어왔다. 제어의 주된 목적은 구조물의 응답을 저감하는 것이지만 효율적인 제어력의 산정 또한 중요한 설계요구사항중의 하나이다. 능동형제진장치를 중심으로 제어력 산정은 크게 시스템의 H2, H∞-norm을 분리하여 독립적으로 결정되어 왔다. 보다 효율적인 제어력 산정을 위해서 두 가지 norm을 혼합한 제어알고리듬이 개발되었고 이를 LMI 표준형으로 변환하여 보다 용이하게 최적 해를 제공하게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 제어 후 구조물의 요구 등가감쇠비를 H∞-norm을 이용하여 구속하고 제어력만을 별도로 H2-norm을 이용한 제어알고리듬을 개발하여 능동형뿐만 아니라 수동형제진장치에도 적용하는 방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 혼합제어 기법을 능동질량감쇠기와 카고메 트러스 댐퍼가 설치된 구조물에 적용하여 수치적으로 검증하였으며, 수치해석 결과로부터 능동형뿐만 아니라 수동형제진장치설계를 LMI표준형으로 전환하는 기법을 적용하면 제어이득뿐만 아니라 감쇠용량도 효율적으로 산정 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

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.

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°.

Existing reinforced concrete building structures have seismic vulnerabilities due to their seismically-deficient details resulting in non-ductile behavior. The seismic vulnerabilities can be mitigated by retrofitting the buildings using a fiber-reinforced polymer column jacketing system, which can provide additional confining pressures to existing columns to improve their lateral resisting capacities. This study presents dynamic responses of a full-scale non-ductile reinforced concrete frame retrofitted using a fiber-reinforced polymer column jacketing system. A series of forced-vibration testing was performed to measure the dynamic responses (e.g. natural frequencies, story drifts and column/beam rotations). Additionally, the dynamic responses of the retrofitted frame were compared to those of the non-retrofitted frame to investigate effectiveness of the retrofit system. The experimental results demonstrate that the retrofit system installed on the first story columns contributed to reducing story drifts and column rotations. Additionally, the retrofit scheme helped mitigate damage concentration on the first story columns as compared to the non-retrofitted frame.

Recently, measures for reducing noise and vibration of a railroad station are actively being developed to enhance its property value and comfort level of passengers. In this paper, the applicability of the recently developed vibration mitigation method utilizing a platform TMD (Tuned Mass Damper) by installing a spring-damper system beneath the platform is experimentally verified using a bench scale structure. The two-story bench scale structure is built to simulate a real railroad station, and vibration reduction effect is verified by comparing acceleration before and after applying the platform TMD at the 2nd floor of the structure. The design parameters of the platform TMD system is determined based on vibration analysis result and the MTMD (Multiple TMD) theory recently developed to enhance the effectiveness of the platform TMD method. The vibration is excited to the bench-scale structure using a vibrator. The performance test result for a spring-damper system is also presented. The result of the experiment reveals that the platform TMD method can reduce the vibration of the bench-scale structure by greater than 5dB(V).

Wind tower structure has relatively simple shape compared to other structures, but due to its characteristics, various and irregular environmental loads are applied. These loads cause vibrations at tower, and can cause failure of the structure if over vibration occurs. Vibration occurred at structures is gradually exhausted by damping of the structures, and if high damping is ensured, the failure of the structure due to over vibration can be prevented. In this study, the vibration reduction effects are to be analyzed through FEM analysis by examining the top displacement, bottom moment, and bottom fatigue damage of the structure depending on damping ratio of the wind tower structure.

Large spatial structures can not easily predict the dynamic behavior due to the lack of construction and design practices. The spatial structures are generally analyzed through the numerical simulation and experimental test in order to investigate the seismic response of large spatial structures. In the case of analysis for seismic response of large spatial structure, the many studies by the numerical analysis was carried out, researches by the shaking table test are very rare. In this study, a shaking table test of a small-scale arch structure was conducted and the dynamic characteristics of arch structure are analyzed. And the dynamic characteristics of arch structures are investigated according to the various column cross-section and length. It is found that the natural vibration periods of the small-scaled arch structure that have large column stiffness are very similar to the natural vibration period of the non-column arch structure. And in case of arch structure with large column stiffness, primary natural frequency period by numerical analysis is very similar to the primary natural frequency period of by shaking table test. These are because the dynamic characteristics of the roof structure are affected by the column stiffness of the spatial structure.
