Proper pretest planning is a vital component of any successful vibration test on engineering structures. The most important issue in dynamic testing of many engineering structures is arriving at the number and optimal placement of sensors. The sensors must be placed on the structure in such a way that all the important dynamic behaviour of a structural system is captured during the course of the test with sufficient accuracy so that the information can be effectively utilised for structural parameter identification or health monitoring. Several optimal sensor placement (OSP) techniques are proposed in the literature and each of these methods have been evaluated with respect to a specific problem encountered in various engineering disciplines like aerospace, civil, mechanical engineering, etc. In the present work, we propose to perform a detailed characteristic evaluation of some selective popular OSP techniques with respect to their application to practical civil engineering problems. Numerical experiments carried out in the paper on various practical civil engineering structures indicate that effective independence (EFI) method is more consistent when compared to all other sensor placement techniques.

KITECH and ODS performed a study of internal and external noise prediction of the Korean high speed prototype test train(HSR 350X). The object of this study was 3 kinds of cars, trailer car(TT2), motorized car(TMI ) and power car(TPI) and the predicted noise was for the two different driving speeds in free field and tunnel conditions. Data of carbody design and noise sources were delivered from manufactures. Some of noise sources which were not available in the project team, were chosen by experiences of ODS. Internal noise level of each car was predicted for two cases i.e, at 300 km/h and 350 km/h. In addition sound transmission path and dominant noise sources were also investigated for each section of the car, which is circular shell typed part of whole carbody. In case of TT2, the dominating sound transmission path is the (floor in terms of structure-borne noise and air-borne noise. The main noise sources are structure-borne noise from the yaw-damper and air-borne noise from the wheel/rail contact, whereas the dominating sound transmission path of TMI are floor and sidewall below the window in terms of structure-borne noise. The main noise sources of TMI are structure-borne noise from motor/gear unit and the yaw-damper in the free field, and air-borne noise from the wheel/rail contact and structure-borne noise from motor/gear unit in the tunnel. Through the external noise prediction for the KHST test train formation, the noise form the wheel/rail contact is estimated as one of the major sources. In addition, the noise specification of sub-component was proposed for managing each sub-surpplier to reach the KHST noise requirement. The specification provide the sound power of machinery part and transmission loss of component of carbody structure. The predicted noise level in each case exceeded the required limit. Through this study, the noise characteristics of the test train were investigated by simulation, and then the actual test will be performed in near future. Both measured and calculated data will be compared and further work for noise reduction will be continued.

Beam string structure (BSS) is introduced as a new type of hybrid prestressed string structures. The composition and mechanics features of BSS are discussed. The main principles of wavelet packet transform (WPT), principal component analysis (PCA) and support vector machine (SVM) have been reviewed. WPT is applied to the structural response signals, and feature vectors are obtained by feature extraction and PCA. The feature vectors are used for training and classification as the inputs of the support vector machine. The method is used to a single one-way arched beam string structure for damage detection. The cable prestress loss and web members damage experiment for a beam string structure is carried through. Different prestressing forces are applied on the cable to simulate cable prestress loss, the prestressing forces are calculated by the frequencies which are solved by Fourier transform or wavelet transform under impulse excitation. Test results verify this method is accurate and convenient. The damage cases of web members on the beam are tested to validate the efficiency of the method presented in this study. Wavelet packet decomposition is applied to the structural response signals under ambient vibration, feature vectors are obtained by feature extraction method. The feature vectors are used for training and classification as the inputs of the support vector machine. The structural damage position and degree can be identified and classified, and the test result is highly accurate especially combined with principle component analysis.

본 논문에서는 회전체의 특징 파라미터들을 추출하기 위한 센서의 신호들을 수집하여 추출기법의 성능을 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해, 모형 시험을 수행하기 위한 진동 테스트 리그를 개발하여 정상적으로 운전하에서의 신호특성을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 가속도 센서에서 측정한 불평형 질량에 따른 가속도 센서에서 측정된 원 데이터 진폭의 변화는 나타나지 않는 것으로 판단된다. FFT를 수행하여 불평형량이 증가함에 따라 회전 주파수인 20Hz의 진폭이 크게 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 속도 센서의 불평형량 변화에 따른 분석결과도 가속도 센서와 같이 1X 하모닉 성분이 크게 증가하였다.정렬불량의 변화시 가속도 센서 데이터에는 특별한 진폭의 변화가 없었으며, Envelope 데이터의 경우 2X(40Hz)의 진폭이 정렬불량의 정도에 따라 증가되었다. 정렬불량의 변화시 속도 센서도 가속도 센서와 유사한 결과를 보였으며 주파수 스펙트럼에서 부하의 증가에 따라 600Hz에서 피크가 감소되었다.

이 연구의 목적은 진동대를 사용한 지진모의 기술의 현상황을 살펴보고 그의 신뢰성을 검토하는 것이다. 1자유도 및 3자유도 알루미늄 전단구조 모델이 사용되었으며, $4m{\times}4m$ 6자유도 진동대가 1940 El centro 지진 가속도 기록(NS요소)를 재현하기 위해 수평 1방향으로 흔들어졌다. 진동대의 실제 가속도 이력과 목표 가속도 이력을 비교할 때, 전반적인 이력은 매우 흡사했으나 실제 진동의 저 주파수 영역은 목표치보다 후리에 변환 강도에서 낮은 값을 대체로 나타내고 있었다. 자유진동 및 백색파 실험은 고유주파수에 대해서는 거의 일치하는 값을 나타내고 있으나 감쇠계수에 대해서는 자유진동실험의 경우 1.4%, 백색파실험의 경우 14.8%를 나타내어 큰 차이를 보여주고 있다. 층 전단력 대 층간변위의 이력곡선으로부터 전제적으로 선형탄성거동을 나타내고 있으나 이 이력곡선의 모습이 층 강성을 한축으로 하는 타원형을 나타내어 점성감쇠의 영향을 암시하고 있다.

Cables are prone to vibration due to their low inherent damping characteristics. Recently, negative stiffness dampers have gained attentions, because of their promising energy dissipation ability. The viscous inertial mass damper (termed as VIMD hereinafter) can be viewed as one realization of the inerter. It is formed by paralleling an inertial mass part with a common energy dissipation element (e.g., viscous element) and able to provide pseudo-negative stiffness properties to flexible systems such as cables. A previous study examined the potential of IMD to enhance the damping of stay cables. Because there are already models for common energy dissipation elements, the key to establish a general model for IMD is to propose an analytical model of the rotary mass component. In this paper, the characteristics of the rotary mass and the proposed analytical model have been evaluated by the numerical and experimental tests. First, a series of harmonic tests are conducted to show the performance and properties of the IMD only having the rotary mass. Then, the mechanism of nonlinearities is analyzed, and an analytical model is introduced and validated by comparing with the experimental data. Finally, a real-time hybrid simulation test is conducted with a physical IMD specimen and cable numerical substructure under distributed sinusoidal excitation. The results show that the chosen model of the rotary mass part can provide better estimation on the damper's performance, and it is better to use it to form a general analytical model of IMD. On the other hand, the simplified damper model is accurate for the preliminary simulation of the cable responses.

Low frequency noises(up to about 200 Hz) such as booming are mainly caused by particular modes, and in general the solutions may be found based on mode controls where conventional methods such as FEM can be used. However, at higher frequencies between 0.3~1 kHz, as the number of modes rapidly increases, radiation characteristics from structures, performances of damping sheets and sound packages may be more crucial rather than particular modes, and consequently the conventional FEM may be less practical in dealing with this kinds of structure-borne problems. In this context, so-called 'mid-frequency simulation model' based on FE-SEA hybrid method is studied and validated to reduce noise in this frequency region. Energy transmission loss(i.e. air borne noise) is also studied. A dash panel component is chosen for this study, which is an important path that transmits both structure-borne and air borne energies into the cavity. Design modifications including structural modifications, attachment of damping sheets and application of different sound packages are taken into account and the corresponding noise characteristics are experimentally identified. It is found that the dash member behaves as a noise path. The damping sheet and sound packages have similar influences on both sound radiation and transmission loss. The comparison between experiments and simulations shows that this model could be used to predict the tendency of noise improvement.
