ER 인서트를 이용한 Hull Mount에서의 진동저감에 관한 연구

초록

This paper deals with vibration reduction of hull mount system of ship structures brought by ER smart structures. The hull mount is used to isolate the vibration of equipment from the host structures. Utilizing the tunable characteristics of ER fluids, ER inserts are made in the hull mount structure. Different types of ER inserts are proposed and the vibration characteristics are investigated. A hull mount structures is made and the influence of ER inserts are experimentally studied. An extensive modal test is empirically conducted to identify natural frequencies and mode shapes according to the applied electric field and the types of ER inserts. The frequency tunable characteristics of ER inserts can be to many mounting structures for vibration reduction.
