This paper presents an improved system identification methodology for structural systems by applying static compliance dominant (SCD) frequencies. The existing sensitivity-based system identification technique is extended to adopt the static compliance dominant frequencies, and the performance of the additional spectral information, i.e., SCD frequencies, is compared with that of the natural frequencies only via a numerical example of a mechanical system. The results of the numerical study indicate that the additional use of the SCD frequencies improves accuracy in system identification problems.

The purpose of the present study is to compare the reduction rate of natural frequency and the increase rate of damping parameter with structural damage in system. For this purpose, experiment and numerical simulation analysis are performed for the 2-span H-Beam with lower natural frequency and higher damping parameter from free vibration in structure. The response signal by impact load before and after damage is analyzed at 14 locations. The response signals for all locations are performed fast fourier transform to estimate the natural frequency reduction rate and wavelet transform to estimate the damping parameter increase rate. The time domain function corresponding to each scale(frequency) is separated from the response signal by wavelet parameter. The estimation of damping parameter increase rate using wavelet transform is more sensitive than the estimation of natural frequency reduction rate in structure.

구조물에 손상이 발생하면 구조물의 강성변화로 구조물의 고유진동수에 변화가 발생하게 된다. 실험을 통해 얻을 수 있는 손상 전 구조물의 고유진동수와 해석적 방법을 사용하여 구하는 고유진동수가 같다고 가정하고 해석적인 방법으로 손상전후 고유진동수비를 구하여 3차원 그래프로 표시하였다. 손상이 한 부위에 존재할 경우 진동실험으로 구한 고유진동수비를 고유진동수비 그래프와 비교하여 손상의 위치, 크기 및 방향을 알 수 있었으나 여러 지점에 손상이 발생할 경우에는 손상을 파악하기 위해 고유진동수비 그래프 외에 주파수 응답함수를 병행하여 사용하였다.

An optimal shape design algorithm is suggested to systematically design a traditional Korean musical instrument, the Pyeongyeong. The Pyeongyeong consists of 16 different chime stones called Gyeongpyeons. The first natural vibration frequency of each Gyeongpyeon must be adjusted to its target frequency, which is determined by the traditional sound tuning method. The second and third natural frequencies must be proportional to the first natural frequency with a specific ratio (1:1.498:2.378). The key idea in our suggested design algorithm is to use the sensitivity of natural frequencies to the variation in the length of each side of a Gyeongpyeon. The dimensions of five different Gyeongpyeons are determined by following the suggested algorithm. Changes in natural frequencies with respect to local thickness variation are closely investigated to compensate for errors that may occur during manufacturing.

Speech Signals consist of signals of consonants and vowels, but the lasting time of vowels is much longer than that of consonants. It can be assumed that the correlations between signal blocks in speech signal is very high. But the correlations between signal blocks in various frequency bands can be quite different. Each speech signal is divided into blocks which have 128 speech data. FFT is applied to each block. Various frequency areas of the results of FFT are taken and Covariance matrix between blocks in a speech signal is extracted and finally eigenvalues of those matrix are obtained. It is studied that in the eigenvalues of various frequency bands which band can be used to get more reliable result.

The characteristics of forced vibration by an external excitation force having a frequency were analyzed according to the amplitude and frequency of the excitation force. To obtain displacement, velocity, and acceleration, numerical analysis was performed to obtain the frequency response, and in particular, each FRF(Frequency Response Function) was analyzed to reveal the location of the system natural frequency and excitation frequency in the frequency domain. In the vibration model caused by external excitation, the natural frequency and distribution of the surrounding excitation mode in displacement, velocity and acceleration FRF. The FRF was also shown in the power spectrum and FRF of real and imaginary parts. The external excitation force was approximated with the excitation force of a sine wave by giving the amplitude and frequency, the mode generated by this excitation force could be distinguished. After numerical analysis by changing the equivalent mass, damping and stiffness, the forced vibration response characteristics by external excitation force were systematically analyzed.

The estimation of system damping parameter of the response signal with lower natural frequency and higher damping parameter from free vibration is affected by the wavelet center frequency. This study discusses these considerations in the context of the wavelet's multi-resolution character and includes guidelines for selection of wavelet center frequency. The experiment with H-Beam and numerical examples with respect to three cases (i)single mode, (ii)separated modes and (iii)close modes demonstrate the validity of method to improve the accuracy of the estimated damping parameter. The localization of the corresponding scale for the total scales is determined by the natural frequency of the analysing mode and is affected by the wavelet center frequency. Thus, the reliability for the accuracy of the estimated damping parameter can be improved by the corresponding scale of the natural frequency for the analysing mode is localized at the half of the total scales.

The natural constants of moving coil type geophone can be determined by free impedance and step force method. The former method was desirable for the measurement of natural frequency($f_o$), inertial mass(m) and damping factor($h_o$), but the latter method for sensitivity(G). In particular, the value by the latter method should be corrected for the noise by the long period movement of measurement device. The results of frequency characteristics from these constants operate the accelerometer and displacement system in the boundary of natural frequency.

Dynamic responses were measured using long-term monitoring system for Uldolmok tidal current pilot power plant which is one of jacket-type offshore structures. Among the dynamic quantities, the tilt angle was chosen because the low frequency response components can be precisely measured by dynamic tiltmeter, and the natural frequencies and modal damping ratio were successfully identified using proposed LS-FDD (least squared frequency domain decomposition) method. And the effects of tidal height and tidal current velocity on the variation of natural frequencies and modal damping ratios were investigated in time and frequency domain. Also the non-parametric models were tested to model the relationship between tidal conditions and modal properties such as natural frequencies and damping ratios.

In this paper, a technique to detect structural damage and estimate its severity using peaks and zeros of frequency response functions (FRFs) is developed. The peaks in FRFs represent the natural frequencies of the structure and the zeros provide additional information. The characteristics of peaks and zeros are defined and the calculation procedure to obtain the peaks and zeros from the relationship between frequency response function and stiffness and mass matrices are clearly explained. A structural system identification theory which is utilizing the sensitivity of stiffness of a structural member to eigenvalues, i.e., peaks and zeros, is established. The proposed method can identify damage location and its severity, with natural and zero frequencies, by estimating structural stiffness of the structure in the process of making a analytical model The accuracy and feasibility is demonstrated by numerical models of a spring-mass system and a beam structure.
