Abstract

In this study, the convenience and efficiency of vision-based displacement measurement (VBDM) to estimate the cable tension of cable-stayed bridges and the requirements for its effective application were examined. To demonstrate its convenience and efficiency, it was confirmed that VBDM can be accomplished with a minimum amount of equipment using a commercial camcorder. In this case, it was found that the accuracy of estimation of the natural frequencies is sufficient, even though magnitude errors can occur when conducting high-speed recording at the low resolution afforded by the minimal equipment employed. It was also confirmed that the most important factor in detecting the precise natural frequencies is the use of the appropriate frequency range in the tension estimation using vibration. Based on these results, a study was carried out on the accuracy variation of the estimated tension according to the frame rate of a commercial camcorder. For this purpose, an experiment was performed to estimate the cable tension in a cable-stayed bridge model. Through this experiment, the detectable tensions of cables with various natural frequencies as a function of the frame rate were summarized. As a result, it was shown that the frame rate should be determined based on the natural frequency which is estimated to be located within the appropriate frequency range (approximately 10~75% of theoretical range) considering the aliasing and low-frequency distortion due to excitations.

본 논문에서는 사장교 케이블의 장력 추정을 위한 영상변위 측정법의 간편성과 효율성을 보이고 효과적인 적용에 필요한 요구조건에 대해 연구하였다. 간편성과 효율성을 보이기 위해 상용 캠코드를 이용한 최소한의 장비만으로도 필요한 영상변위 측정이 가능함을 증명하였다. 이 경우 최소 장비 구성과 고속촬영에 따른 해상도 저하에 의한 크기오차가 발생할 수 있으나 진동법에 필요한 고유진동수 추정의 정확도 확보는 충분히 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 진동법을 이용한 장력 추정에서 정확한 고유진동수의 검출을 위해서는 적절한 주파수 범위의 확보가 가장 중요함을 확인하였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로, 상용캠 사용 조건하에서 촬영프레임속도에 따른 장력 추정의 정확도 변동에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위해 모형사장교의 케이블에 대한 장력 추정 실험을 수행하였다. 모형실험을 통해 다양한 고유진동수를 가지는 케이블에 대해 촬영프레임 속도에 따라 검출 가능한 장력을 정리하였다. 그 결과 에일리어싱 효과와 가진력의 저주파수 왜곡효과를 고려하여 추정될 고유진동수가 적절한 주파수 범위(대략 이론적 범위의 10~75%) 내에 위치하도록 프레임 속도를 결정되어야 함을 보였다.
