Abstract:

Strength Reduction Factor (R-Factor), often referred to as Response Modification Factor, is commonly used in the design of lateral force resisting systems under seismic loading. R-Factors allow for a reduction in design base shear demands, leading to more economical designs. The reduction of strength is remedied with ductile behavior in members of proper detailing. Modern seismic codes and provisions recommend R-Factors for many types of lateral force resisting systems. However these factors are independent of the system fundamental frequency and many other important system properties, resulti

Abstract:

This thesis presents a decentralized electromagnetic formation flying (EMFF) control method using frequency-multiplexed sinusoidal control signals. We demonstrate the EMFF control approach in open-loop and closed-loop control experiments using a single-degree-of-freedom testbed with an electromagnetic actuation system (EAS). The EAS sense the relative position and velocity between satellites and implement a frequency-multiplexed sinusoidal control signal. We use a laser-rangefinder device to capture the relative position and an ARM-based microcontroller to implement the closed-loop control alg

Abstract:

This thesis presents the results of a study of the effect of variations of systemic parameters on the structural response of single degree of freedom systems subjected to Incremental Dynamic Analysis. The systemic parameters are mass, stiffness, damping, yield strength and geometric stiffness. Each of these parameters was varied one at a time while the other values were kept constant. For each variation of parameters a set of single-record IDA curves was obtained. Five to six ground motions were used for this study to generate the single-record IDA curves. These ground motions were scaled prio

This thesis recounts the experimental study of the dynamic response of a blast resistant glazing system to explosive loading. A combination of triaxial force sensors, pressure gauges, and laser displacement gauges capture the response in detail over a wide range of scenarios. The scenarios include low level blast loading to characterize the reaction at points around the perimeter of the window, moderate level blast loading to examine the repeatability of the blast scenario, and high level blast loading to capture the response during failure as the tensile membrane forms. The scenarios are mode

This study models roll motion response of a barge subjected to beam sea conditions as a single degree of freedom system.

The simulated results are compared to measured data to determine the best system damping parameters. Four different forms of the damping moment of the SDOF model are analyzed. In each form all coefficients are known except for the linear and nonlinear damping parameters. Each form uses a combinatio

Abstract:

Ground-motion data processing is a necessity for most earthquake engineering related studies. Important engineering parameters such as the peak values of ground motion and the ordinates of the response spectra are determined from the strong ground-motion data recorded by accelerometers. However, the raw data needs to be processed since the recorded data always contains high- and low-frequency noise from different sources. Low-cut filters are the most popular ground-motion data processing scheme for removing long-period noise. Removing long-period noise from the raw accelogram is important si

Abstract:

The single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) transformation factors as tabulated in John Biggs’ textbook (Biggs 1964) are accepted as the equivalent factors for simplifying and analyzing a component's response to blast. The study validates the stiffness and mass transformation factors through multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) numerical methods. After validating the transformation factors, the MDOF numerical method is used to create new stiffness and mass transformation factors for loading cases not already included in Biggs’ textbook. The validated factors, as well as the newly developed factors are used

In these experiments, movements of 10, 20 and 30 degrees in amplitude were tested using up to five different initial elbow angles. When performing flexions, subjects tended to overs

Although tremor is one of the most common movement disorders, there are few effective tremor-suppressing options available to patients. One potential tremor-suppression device involves a wearable gyrostabilizer similar to those used to stabilize cameras. However, we do not currently know how to design a gyrostabilizer to suppress tremor in an optimal manner. To address this gap, we present a systematic investigation of how gyrostabilizer parameters affect tremor suppression in a single degree of freedom (DOF).

Accurate ship-motion prediction is important because it is directly related to the design, control, and economic operation of ships. Many methods are available for studying and predicting ship motions, including time-domain, strip-theory, and system-identification-based predictions. Time-domain and strip-theory predictions suffer from several physical and computational limitations. In this work, we use system-identification techniques to predict ship motions. We establish an identification methodology that can handle general finite-degree-of-freedom (FDOF) models of ship motions. To establish

As energy-based methods could provide more insight into the ultimate cyclic seismic performance than traditional design methods, this research essentially focuses on the study of energy demands for single-degree-of-freedom systems.

Good motion cueing in a flight simulator serves to enhance the overall simulation environment. However, poor motion cueing can greatly detract from the simulation and serve solely to distract the pilot. The latter was the case for Virginia Tech's three degree-of-freedom motion-base. The most common method of motion cueing is to use washout filters to produce the best motion cues within the physical limitations of the motion system. This algorithm is named the classical washout algorithm and its filters were studied first in this research, but initially yielded undesirable results. In efforts t

碩士<br>國立中興大學<br>電機工程學系<br>91<br>Magnetic bearings employed in high-speed rotating equipments are easier to control than other active bearings. It has prevailed the field for factory and academics attention and interests in recent years. This thesis presents an investigation of the controlled-PM Maglev system for the one dimensional magnetic bearing. This research focuses on an active magnetic bearing with extremely zero-current consumption and well gap tracking. A traditional analog PD controller is used to levitate the bearing. Zero-current control and gap- tracking control are rea

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>土木工程學研究所<br>103<br>ABSTRACT Passive control systems are used to improve seismic capacity of the structure and maintain the function and security of the main structure during an earthquake. In the far-fault region, passive control systems have been studied and proven to be an effective way to improve structural seismic capacity; however, the past record of near-fault earthquake is not as rich now, the advantage of structure equipped passive control elements cannot be estimated quantifiably subject near-fault earthquake. The difference between near-fault and far-fault earthquake
