Impeller blades in the centrifugal compressor are subjected to periodic aerodynamic excitations by interactions between the impeller and the diffuser vanes (DV) in resonant conditions. This may cause high cycle fatigue (HCF) and eventually result in failure of the blades. In order to predict the structural response accurately, the aerodynamic excitation and the major resonant conditions were predicted using unsteady computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and structural analysis. Then, a forced vibration analysis was performed by going through one-way fluid-structure interaction (FSI). A numerical analysis procedure was established to evaluate the structural safety with respect to HCF. The numerical analysis procedure proposed in this paper is expected to contribute toward preventing HCF problems in the initial design stage of an impeller.

In this paper, a tuned liquid mass damper(TLMD) was proposed and experimentally investigated on its control performance, which can control bi-axial responses of building structures by using only one device. The proposed TLMD controls the structural response in a specific one direction by using a liquid sloshing of TLCD. Also, the TLMD reduces the response of structures in the other orthogonal direction by behaving as a TMD that uses mass of the container itself and liquid within container of TLCD installed on linear motion guides. Force-vibration tests on a real-sized structure installed with the TLMD were performed to verify its independent behavior in two orthogonal directions. Test results showed that the responses of a structure were considerably reduced by using the proposed TLMD and its usefulness for structural control in two orthogonal directions.

강제가진을 받는 진동장은 직접장과 반사장으로 이루어진다. 직접장은 무한구조요소가 점입력을 받을 때의 해와 같으며, 반사장은 직접장에 의해 발생되는 1차 반사파 및 추가로 발생하는 무수한 반사파들의 합으로 나타낼 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 점가진을 받는 유한한 평판의 단일 주파수 해석을 수행하기 위한 레이추적기법을 연구하였다. 이를 위해, 직접장은 고주파수 가정을 이용하여 원형전달파로 근사화하고. 이 원헝전달파를 다수의 파동관 (wave tube)으로 이산화하였다. 균일한 경계조건과 무시할 만큼의 미약한 굴절효과를 가정하고 경계에서의 정반사 (specular reflection)만을 고려하여, 경계에서의 입사파동관. 전달 및 반사파동관의 기하학적 관계를 제안하였다. 이들 파동관이 평판 내부를 진행하면서 관측점에 미치는 영향들을 합성하여 비교적 정확한 강제진동응답을 얻을 수 있음을 단일 평판의 예제를 통하여 확인할 수 있었다 그러나, 연성된 평판의 경우에는 다소 부정확한 결과를 얻었다.

A simplified modeling approach of forced vibration for occupied car seats was demonstrated by using a mathematical model presented in 'Free Vibration of Car seat and Mannequin System' nonlinear and linear equations of motions were rederived for forced vibration and the transfer function was used to calculate the frequency response function. The experimental apparatus were set up and hydraulic shaker was used to obtain the system responses. Through the tests mannequin's head had a lot of problems and the responses with a head and without a head were measured. To explore the effects of linear dampings and friction moments at the joints linear analyses were performed. New sets of linear spring and damping coefficients and torsional dampings at the joints were calculated through parameter study to match up with experimental results. Good agreement between experimental and simulation frequency response estimates were obtained both in terms of locations of resonances and system deflection shapes at resonance indicating that this is a feasible method of modeling seated occupants.

동적무한요소를 이용한 지반-구조물 상호작용에 대하여 연구하였다. 동적무한요소는 무한원방향으로 전파되어 나가는 여러종류의 지진파 성분을 동시에 모형화 할 수 있도록 개발된 축대칭요소로서, 구조물에서 멀리 떨어진 지반영역(외부영역)을 모형화 하는데 사용되었다. 반면, 구조물에 가까운 지반영역(내부영역)은 재래의 축대칭요소를 사용하여 모형화 하였다. 본 해석방법의 검증은 적충된 반무한 지반위에 놓여진 원형강판의 임피던스함수를 구하여, 이를 이론적 결과와 비교하는 방법으로 수행되었다. 또한, 지반에 일부가 묻힌 원통형구조물에 대하여 수행된 강제진동시험 결과와 실제 지진발생시 구조물의 거동기록을 같은 입력조건에 대하여 본 해법으로 구한 결과와도 비교하였다. 해석결과로 부터 본 해석방법이 구조물의 거동을 타당히 산정하여 줌을 알 수 있었다.

Complex and large lattice type structures are frequently used in design of bridge, tower, crane and aerospace structures. In general, in order to analyze these structures we have used the finite element method(FEM). This method is the most widely used and powerful method for structural analysis lately. However, it is necessary to use a large amount of computer memory and computational time because the FEM requires many degrees of freedom for solving dynamic problems exactly for these complex and large structures. For analyzing these structures on a personal computer, the authors developed the transfer stiffness coefficient method(TSCM). This method is based on the concept of the transfer of the nodal dynamic stiffness coefficient matrix which is related to force and displacement vector at each node. And we suggested TSCM for free vibration analysis of complex and large lattice type structures in the previous report. In this paper, we formulate forced vibration analysis algorithm for complex and large lattice type structures using extened TSCM. And we confirmed the validity of TSCM through computational results by the FEM and TSCM, and experimental results for lattice type structures with harmonic excitation.

This paper presents an efficient method for determining the forced response of a spinning flexible disk-spindle system supported by fluid dynamic bearings(FDBs) in a computer hard disk drive(HDD). The spinning flexible disk-spindle system is represented by the asymmetric finite element equations of motion originating from the asymmetric dynamic coefficients of the FDBs and the gyroscopic moment of a spinning disk-spindle system. The proposed method utilizes only the right eigenvectors of the eigenvalue problem to transform the large asymmetric finite element equations of motion into a small number of coupled equations, guaranteeing the accuracy of their numerical integration. The results are then back-substituted into the equations of motion to determine the forced response. The effectiveness of the proposed method was verified by comparing it with the responses from the classical methods of mode superposition with the general eigenvalue problems, and mode superposition with modal approximation. The proposed method was shown to be effective in determining the forced response represented by the asymmetric finite element equations of motion of a spinning flexible disk-spindle system supported by FDBs.

Accurate modal identification analysis is required to reasonably perform a seismic qualification of safety-related electric equipment installed in nuclear power plants (NPPs). This study evaluates a variation of the modal properties of an electric equipment cabinet structure in NPPs according to the excitation levels. For the study, an actual electric equipment cabinet was selected as a specimen and was dynamically tested by using a portable exciter in accordance with the level of input vibration energy. Tests were classified into two sets: with-door cases, and without-door cases. Frequency response functions were computed from the signals of the acceleration responses and input motions measured from the vibration tests. A polynomial curve fitting algorithm was used to extract the modal properties from the frequency response functions. This study reviews the variation of the modal properties according to the variation of the excitation levels. The results of the study show that the modal frequencies and the modal dampings of the object specimen varies nonlinearly according to the excitation level of the test motion. Attaching the door increases the modal damping of the cabinet.

An investigation into asymmetric vibrations of a clamped circular place under a harmonic excitation is made. We examine a primary resonance. in which the frequency of excitation is near the natural frequency of an asymmetric mode of the plate. We found not only a response haying the form of standing wave but also one having the form of traveling wave, which was not observed by Sridhar, Mook and ${Nayfeh}^{(1)}$

The strong nonliner dynamic behavior of mechanical systems in the presence of clearances are studied. The nonlinearity is induced from the assumed symmetric piecewise-linear characteristics for stiffness and damping by the contact and uncontact. Based on Stoker's assertion concering the reasoning beyond the occurrence of subharmonics, the nonlinear differential equation is converted to four nonlinear algebraic equations form the boundary conditions at the contact points. For a single contact per half exciting period, under the assumption of symmetric response, the steady-state solutions obtained are in agreement with those of numerical integration. Also a nondimen-sionalized formulation is made for the purpose of parametric studies.
