For the dynamic nonlinear analysis of stiffened plate and shell structures, total Lagrangian formulation is presented based upon the degenerated shell element considering finite rotation effects. Assumed strain concept is adopted in order to overcome shear locking phenomena and to eliminate spurious zero energy mode. In the elasto-plastic analysis, the return mapping algorithm based on the consistent elasto-plastic tangent modulus is applied to collapse analysis of shell structures. Newmark integration method is used for dynamic nonlinear analysis of shell structures under dynamic forces.

This paper presents the theoretical development and qualitiative evaluation of a new concept in the mathematical modeling of dynamicstructures. We use both test data and analytical approximations to identify the parameters of an incomplete model. The model has the capability of prodicting the response of the points of interest on the structure over the frequency range of interest and can be used to predict the changes in natural frequencies and normal modes due to structural changes. The theory was tested by running simulated tests on a relatively simple structure, identifying the parameters of the incomplete model, and using this model to predict the effects on frequency and mode shapes of several mass and stiffness changes. The conditions of the test were varied by selecting different numbers of points of meansurement, varying the frequency range, and by including assumed measurement error. It is recommended that the theroetical development be continued and that applications to more complex structures be carried out in order todevelop a better understanding of the limitations and capabilites of the method. A successful, more definitive evaluation could lead to immediate practical applications.

This paper presents the series multiple tuned mass dampers (STMDs) to suppress the resonant vibrations of railway bridges under the passage of high-speed trains (HSTs). A STMD device consisting of two spring-mass-damper units connected each other in series is installed on the bridge. In solution, bridge is modeled as a simply-supported Euler-Bernoulli beam with constant cross-section, and vehicle is simulated as a series of moving forces with constant speed. By the assumed mode method, the governing equations of motion of the beam-TMD device coupled system traversed by a moving train are obtained. The optimum values for the parameters of the STMD device are obtained for the criterion based on the minimization of the maximum dynamic displacement of the beam at its midspan. Single TMD and multiple TMDs in parallel are also considered for demonstration of the STMD device's performance. The results show that STMDs are effective in bridge vibration suppression and robust to parameters' change in the main system and the absorber itself.

In this paper, the dynamic stability of a rotating cantilever pipe conveying fluid with a crack is investigated by the numerical method. That is, the influence of the rotating angular velocity, mass ratio and crack severity on the critical flow velocity for flutter instability of system are studied. The equations of motion of rotating cantilever pipe are derived by using extended Hamilton's principle. The crack section of pipe is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged pipe segments. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and always opened during the vibrations. Generally, the critical flow velocity for flutter is proportional to the rotating angular velocity of a pipe. Also, the critical flow velocity and stability maps of the rotating pipe system for the variation each parameter are obtained.

In this paper, assumed mode method on Euler beam theory is employed and signal distortion is considered to obtain the performances of a MEMS accelerometer which are a sensitivity and measurable frequency range(MFR). Not only the sensitivities and MFR but also the variations of dynamic responses and natural frequencies of the MEMS accelerometer are investigated for several sets of beam properties such as length, width, thickness and Young's modulus. It is stated that the variations of beam properties significantly influence the performances of the MEMS accelerometer and the relationship between sensitivities and MFR is inversely proportional to each other.

This paper is concerned with the dynamic modeling of transmission line undergoing galloping vibrations. To this end, the kinetic and potential energies of a uniform wire vibrating in space are derived. The equations of motion suitable for numerical simulations are derived using the assumed mode method and Lagrange equation. The resulting equations of motion are expressed in matrix form. To cope with bundled transmission line, the spacer was modelled by a spring element. As a numerical example, a two-wire transmission line combined by spacers was considered. Natural vibration characteristics show that the in-plane vibrations of the transmission line appeared in low frequency range, which may lead to galloping.

Hwang et al (2001) proposed a new method for an evaluation of equivalent damping ratios of a linear structure with linear or nonlinear damping devices. This procedure has a disadvantage that it requires time history analysis for the whole system including damping devices, which may be troublesome for practical application. To tackle this problem closed form formulas for equivalent damping ratios are proposed in this study. It is assumed that the responses of MDOF system can be reproduced by an equivalent SDOF system which vibrates in a fundamental mode. The numerical analyses of a ten-story building equipped with linear viscous damper or active mass damper or friction damper show the effectiveness of equivalent SDOF model and closed form formulas.

The objective of this paper is to introduce very fast but still stable solution using finite element procedures, and it has been used in an iterative mode for product design applications. A lot of numerical techniques have been developed to deal with the material, geometric and boundary condition non-linearities occurred in the stamping process. One of them, the One-Step FEM is very efficient and useful tool for a design and trouble-shooting in various stamping processes. In this method, the mathod, the material is assumed to deform directly from the initial flat blank to the final configuration without any intermediate steps. The formulation is based on the deformation theory of plasticity and the upper bound theorem. As a result of the calculations, the initial blank shape is obtained, together with the material flow, strains and thickness distribution in the part.

The performance of a mixed $H_{\infty}/H_2$ design with pole placement constraints based on robust vibration control for a piezo/beam system is investigated. The governing equation of motion for the piezo/beam system is derived by Hamilton's principle. The assumed mode method is used to discretize the governing equation into a set of ordinary differential equation. A robust controller is designed by $H_{\infty}/H_2$ feedback control law that satisfies additional constraints on the closed-loop pole location in the face of model uncertainties, which are derived for a general class of convex regions of the complex plane. These constraints are expressed in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) approach for the multiobjective synthesis. The validity and applicability of this approach for vibration suppressions of SMART structural systems are discussed by damping out the multiple vibrational modes of the piezo/beam system.
