Abstract

This is a preliminary study for the real-time feedback vibration control of building structures. The study developed a wireless acceleration sensor system based on authentic technology capacities, to integrate with the Prototype AMD system and ultimately construct the feedback vibration control system. These systems were used to evaluate the basic performance levels of the control systems within model building structures. For this purpose, the study first developed a wireless acceleration sensor unit that integrates an MEMS sensor device and bluetooth communication module. Also, the study developed an operating program that enables control output based on real-time acceleration response measurement and control law. Furthermore, the Prototype AMD and motor driver system were constructed to be maneuvered by the AC servo-motor. Eventually, all these compositions were used to evaluate the real-time feedback vibration control system of a 2-story model building, and qualitatively measure the extent of vibrational reduction of the target structure within the laboratory validation tests. As a result of the tests, there was a definite vibrational reduction effect within the laboratory validation tests. As a result of the tests, there was a definite vibrational reduction effect within 1st and 2nd resonance frequency as well as the random frequency of the model building structure. Ultimately, this study confirmed the potential of its wireless acceleration sensor system and AMD system as an effective tool that can be applied to the active vibration control of other structures.

본 논문에서는 건축물의 실시간 피드백 진동제어를 위한 기초연구로써, 자체 기술력을 바탕으로 개발된 무선 가속도센서 시스템 및 프로토타입 (Prototype) AMD 시스템을 결합하여 피드백 진동제어 시스템을 구성하고, 모형 건축물을 대상으로 구성된 제어시스템의 기초성능을 평가하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 우선 MEMS 센서 소자 및 블루투스 통신 모듈 기반의 무선 가속도 센서 유닛, 실시간 가속도 응답획득 및 제어법칙에 근거한 제어출력을 구현하도록 구성한 운영프로그램 등을 개발하였다. 또한 AC 서보모터를 이용해 기동되도록 설계한 프로토타입 AMD 및 모터 드라이버 시스템을 구성하였다. 마지막으로 이를 이용해 실시간 피드백 진동제어 시스템을 구성하였고, 2층 모형 건축물을 대상으로 실험실 규모의 진동제어 실험을 수행하여 목적된 구조물의 진동저감 효과를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 실험의 결과, 모형 구조물의 1차 및 2차 공진주파수 그리고 랜덤주파수 등의 실험조건에서 명확한 진동저감의 효과를 확인할 수 있었으며, 종국적으로 본 논문에서 개발한 무선 가속도센서 시스템 및 AMD 시스템이 향후 여타 구조물의 진동제어를 위한 효과적인 수단으로 응용될 수 있는 가능성을 확인하였다.
