Among other critical conditions in rotor systems the large non-linear vibration excited by bearing non-linearity causes the rotor failure. For reducing this catastrophic failure and predictive detection of this phenomenon the analysis of orthotropic bearing non-linearity in rotor system using higher order frequency response functions (HFRFs) is conducted and is shown to be theoretically feasible as that of non-rotating structures. The complex HFRFs based on the Volterra series are newly developed for the process and investigated their features by using the simple forms of the FRFs associated with the forward and the backward modes.

A compressor loop pipe is the most important part in a refrigerator from the view of structural vibration and noise. Vibration energy generated from a compressor's inner body is transmitted to the shell and outside through the loop pipe. For this reason it is very important to design a compressor loop pipe. But, for geometrical complexity and dynamic nonlinearity of the loop pipe, analysis and design of the loop pipe is very difficult. So the statistical and experimental methods have to be used for design of this system. The response surface method (RSM) becomes a popular meta-modeling technique f3r the complex system as this loop pipe. As starting point of loop pile's optimization, FEA model and simple experimental model are used instead of the real loop pipe model. After RS model was constructed, using sensitivity-based optimizer performed optimization for the loop pipe. And the moving least square method (MLSM) was applied to reduce the approximation error.

While the booming occurs in a cabin, the powertrain and subframes which are the main sources and paths of the booming, show the rigid body motions. This paper presents a technique to predict the booming noise in a car using the rigid body information of the important parts. The rigid body information comes from the CAD data, from which we can predict the response of the complex system. Since the mechanism of this technique is very similar to the finite element formulation, we can apply it to the complex system with ease.

For the environmental noises has various frequency spectrums and fluctuation characteristics. the dimensions of psychological influencing on persons IS also complex. Analyzing this complex-dimensional psychological factors and characteristics of them then developing the evaluation indexes which have a good correspondence are important for improvement of noise environment. To develop the effective evaluation procedures which reflect the psychological respects of persons, this study firstly we drove the psychological factors and classified the noises into several groups by their psychological response characteristics through the psycho-acoustical experiments using environmental noises. In addition, we analyzed the relationship between the various evaluation indexes, psychological factors and the noise groups, and then suggested several indexes for the simple and efficient psycho-acoustic evaluation.

An isolated building, composed of superstructure and isolation system which have very different damping properties, is typically non-classical damping system. This results in inapplicability of traditional response spectrum method for isolated buildings. A multidimensional response spectrum method based on complex mode superposition is herein introduced, which properly takes into account the non-classical damping feature in the structure and a new method is developed to estimate velocity spectra from the commonly used displacement or pseudo-acceleration spectra based on random vibration theory. The error of forced decoupling method, an approximated approach, is discussed in the viewpoint of energy transfer. From the base-isolated benchmark model, as a numerical example, application of the procedure is illustrated companying with comparison study of time-history method, forced decoupling method and the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is valid, while forced decoupling approach can't reflect the characteristics of isolated buildings and may lead to insecurity of structures.

This paper presents motion control of the Inchworm composed of the piezoelectric actuators and mechanical elements. Piezoelectric actuator shows nonlinear response characteristics including hysteresis due to the ferroelectric characteristics. This paper proposes feedback control scheme to improve the ability of tracking response to complex input signal and suppress the phenomenon of hysteresis using the sliding mode control technique with the integrator. The sliding mode control system has the limit to minimize both the settle time and overshoot. For making up this limit, this paper also suggests input shaping technique suitable to the inchworm control system.

In this paper, an experimental verification of system identification technique for constructing finite element model is conducted for a three-story test structure equipped with an active mass driver (AMD). Twenty Gaussian white noises were used as the input for AMD, and the corresponding accelerations of each floors are measured. Then, the complex frequency response function (FRF) for the input, the force induced by the AMD, was obtained and subsequently, the Markov parameters and system matrices were estimated. The magnitudes as well as phase of experimentally obtained FRFs match well with those of analytically obtained FRFs.

This paper predicted the dynamic behaviors of a cantilevered carbon nanotube(CNT) incorporating the electrostatic force, van der Waals interactions between the CNT and ground plane. The structural model of the CNT includes geometric and inertial nonlinearities for predicting various phenomena of nonlinear responses of the CNT due to the electrostatic force. In order to solve the problem, we used Galerkin's approximation and the numerical integration techniques and as a result, we predicted characteristics of nonlinear response of nano resonator. The cantilevered CNT shows complex dynamic responses and instabilities due to the applied ac and ac voltages, and driving frequencies. The results investigated in this paper are helpful to the modeling of nanotube based electromechanical devices such as nano-resonators and nano-sensors.

In this study, an improved topology design methodology that is combined with genetic algorithm, response surface method is provided to overcome the limitations of the ordinary topology optimization methods on the complex non-linear problem. the method is applied to a disc brake system for reducing an automobile brake noise. The low frequency that may induces the brake noise under the unstable mode is increased by obtaining the optimal topology. The result is verified by the analysis of variance and confirmed that the estimators for the approximation equations are highly reliable

Equivalent volume estimation of the coupler and two coupled microphones has a key role in standard microphone pressure calibration. The equivalent volume of the microphone is determined by the dynamic characteristics of the diaphragm system and front cavity. Therefore the modal parameters of diaphragm system - natural frequency and damping fatter - should be measured explicitly for the estimation of the equivalent volume. The diaphragm system is composed of the vibrating diaphragm, back slit behind diaphragm, pressure equalization vent, and front cavity which are acoustically coupled. In the measurement, the electrostatic actuator was used to excite the system with the swept sine, and the frequency response was obtained. The close actuator in front of the diaphragm must influence the radiation impedance of the system, and then the modal parameters. From the measured frequency response, the natural frequency and the damping factor could be estimated with the Complex exponential method based on the Prony model and the zero crossing real and imaginary plot.
