In order to perform the spatial buckling and static analysis of the nonsymmetric thin-walled beam-column element, improved exact static stiffness matrices were evaluated using equilibrium equation and force-deformation relationships. This numerical technique was obtained using a generalized linear eigenvalue problem, by introducing 14 displacement parameters and system of linear algebraic equations with complex matrices. Unlike the evaluation of dynamic stiffness matrices, some zero eigenvalues were included. Thus, displacement parameters related to these zero eigenvalues were assumed as polynomials, with their exact distributions determined using the identity condition. The exact displacement functions corresponding to three loadingcases for initial stress-resultants were then derived, by consistently combining zero and nonzero eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors. Finally, exact static stiffness matrices were determined by applying member force-displacement relationships to these displacement functions. The buckling loads and displacement of thin-walled beam were evaluated and compared with analytic solutions and results using ABAQUS' shell element or straight beam element.

An improved NDIF method is introduced to efficiently extract eigenvalues and eigenmodes of two-dimensional, arbitrarily shaped acoustic cavities. The NDIF method, which was developed by the authors for the eigen-mode analysis of arbitrarily shaped acoustic cavities, membranes, and plates, has the feature that it yields highly accurate eigenvalues compared with other analytical methods or numerical methods(FEM and BEM). However, the NDIF method has the weak point that the system matrix of the NDIF method depends on the frequency parameter and, as a result, a final system equation doesn's take the form of an algebra eigenvalue problem. The system matrix of the improved NDIF method developed in the paper is independent of the frequency parameter and eigenvalues and mode shapes can be efficiently obtained by solving a typical algebraic eigenvalue problem. Finally, the validity and accuracy of the proposed method is verified in two case studies, which indicate that eigenvalues and mode shapes obtained by the proposed method are very accurate compared to the exact method, the NDIF method or FEM(ANSYS).

A new formulation of NDIF method to the algebraic eigenvalue problem is introduced to efficiently extract natural frequencies of arbitrarily shaped plates with the simply supported boundary condition. NDIF method, which was developed by the authors for the free vibration analysis of arbitrarily shaped membranes and plates, has the feature that it yields highly accurate natural frequencies compared with other analytical methods or numerical methods(FEM and BEM). However, NDIF method has the weak point that it needs the inefficient procedure of searching natural frequencies by plotting the values of the determinant of a system matrix in the frequency range of interest. A new formulation of NDIF method developed in the paper doesn't require the above inefficient procedure and natural frequencies can be efficiently obtained by solving the typical algebraic eigenvalue problem. Finally, the validity of the proposed method is shown in several case studies, which indicate that natural frequencies by the proposed method are very accurate compared to other exact, analytical, or numerical methods.

This paper deriver the generalized mass to find dynamic characteristics and its derivatives of a continous system. And a new sensitivity analysis method is presented by using the amount of change of generalized mass and vibrational mode caused by the variation of lumped and distributed mass. In this paper, to get or detect appropriate results, cantilever beam and stepped beam are used. Deviations of sensitivity coefficient, natual frequency, vibrational mode and transfer function are calculated as result, and compared with the theoretical exact values.

A procedure to determine the realizable optimal positions of rigid supports is suggested to get a maximum fundamental natural frequency. a measured frequency response function based substructure-coupling technique is used to model the supported structure. The optimization procedure carries out the eigenvalue sensitivity analysis with respect to the stiffness of supports. As a result of such stiffness optimization, the optimal rigid-support positions are shown to be determined by choosing the position of the largest stiffness. The optimally determined support conditions are verified to satisfy the eigenvalue limit theorem. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, the optimal support positions of a plate model are investigated. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method can effectively find out the optimal support conditions of the structure just based on the measured frequency response functions without any use of numerical model of the structure.

The finite element model updating can be defined as the problem of finding the parameters of the finite element model which gives the closest response to the actual response of the structure by measurement. In the previous researches, optimization based methods have been developed to minimize the error of the response of the actual structure and the analytical model. In this study, we propose an inverse eigenvalue problem that can directly obtain the parameters of the finite element model from the target mode information. Deep Neural Networks are constructed to solve the inverse eigenvalue problem quickly and accurately. As an application example of the developed method, the dynamic finite element model update of a suspension bridge is presented in which the deep neural network simulating the inverse eigenvalue function is utilized. The analysis results show that the proposed method can find the finite element model parameters corresponding to the target modes with very high accuracy.

This paper examines that it is possible to apply RWCIM for determining eigenvector coefficients associated with eigenvalues for V-notched cracks in anisotropic dissimilar materials using the complex stress function. To verify the RWCIM algorithm, two tests will be shown. First it is performed to ascertain whether predicted coefficients associated with eigenvectors is obtained exactly. Second, it makes an examination of the state of stress for FEM and RWCIM according to a number of eigenvectors at a location far away from the V-notched crack tip.

Graded-Index Multimode Optical fibers have recently received a lot of attention as regards their application and lightwave behavior in relation to broadband communication links. Accordingly, this aticle presents a novel lightwave mode analysis that solves the wave equation using a numerical analysis based on an eigenvalue problem method, thereby avoiding the typical complicated Bessel function method. Angular depedences and number of modes were observed as well. Future research implications will be possibly noticed such areas as bending effects and mode coupling analyses thru this research.

A new formulation of the MNDIF method is introduced to extract highly accurate eigenvalues of concave acoustic cavities. Since the MNDIF method, which was introduced by the author, can be applicable for only convex acoustic cavities, a new approach of dividing a concave cavity into two convex domains and formulating an algebraic eigenvalue problem is proposed in the paper. A system matrix equation, which gives eigenvalues, is obtained from boundary conditions for each domain and the condition of continuity in the interface between the two domains. The validity and accuracy of the proposed method are shown through example studies.

A new formulation of the non-dimensional dynamic influence function method, which is a type of the meshless method, is introduced to extract highly accurate eigenvalues of clamped plates with arbitrary shape. Originally, the final system matrix equation of the method, which was introduced by the author in 1999, does not have a form of algebraic eigenvalue problem unlike FEM. As the result, the non-dimensional dynamic influence function method requires an inefficient process to extract eigenvalues. To overcome this weak point, a new approach for clamped plates is proposed in the paper and the validity and accuracy is shown in verification examples.
