This is a study on the natural vibration characteristics of Vehicle frame. Nowadays, many trucks freight the over-load, do the car designers consider the over-load about 200% in the design. It's necessary to make the model of a vehicle and simulate it for the test of driving condition, durability and vibration behavior before the vehicle is manufactured. If it is possible to make a simulation using the static and dynamic analysis, this is very useful in accomplishing an optimal design of the vehicle. In this paper, we studied the vibration characteristics of a truck body frame. The automobile body frame model for experiment is made smaller than real size frame with the ratio of 1/10. The vibration characteristics of a frame is considered as one of main factors in analyzing and improving the problem for ride comfort, noise and vibration reduction. Therefore, we experimented two method to neglect the nonlinearity. First is bolting and second is welding at the joint section. We compared computer simulation results and experimental data.

In this study a multi-objective optimization problem is solved. The objectives used here include simultaneous minimum construction cost in term of sections weight, minimum structural damage using a damage index, and minimum non-structural damage in term of inter-story drift under the applied ground motions. A high-speed and low-error neural network is trained and employed in the process of optimization to estimate the results of non-linear time history analysis. This approach can be utilized for all steel or concrete frame structures. In this study, the optimal design of a planar eccentric braced steel frame is performed with great detail, using the presented multi-objective algorithm with a discrete population and then a moment resisting frame is solved as a supplementary example.

To promote greater acceptance and use of composite RCS systems, a two-bay two-story frame specimen with improved composite RCS joint details was tested in the laboratory under reversed cyclic loading. The test revealed superior seismic performance with stable load versus story drift response and excellent deformation capacity for an inter-story drift ratio up to 1/25. It was found that the failure process of the frame meets the strong-column weak-beam criterion. Furthermore, cracking inter-story drift ratio and ultimate inter-story drift ratio both satisfy the limitation prescribed by the design code. Additionally, inter-story drift ratios at yielding and peak load stage provide reference data for Performance-Based Seismic Design (PBSD) approaches for composite RCS frames. An advantage over conventional reinforced concrete and steel moment frame systems is that the displacement ductility coefficient of the RCS frame system is much larger. To conclude, the test results prove that composite RCS frame systems perform satisfactorily under simulated earthquake action, which further validates the reliability of this innovative system. Based on the test result, some suggestions are presented for the design of composite RCS frame systems.

Open ground story (OGS) reinforced concrete (RC) buildings are vulnerable to the complete collapse or severe damages under seismic actions. This study investigates the effectiveness of four different strengthening techniques representing the local and global modifications to improve the seismic performance of a non-ductile RC OGS frame. Steel caging and concrete jacketing methods of column strengthening are considered as the local modification techniques, whereas steel bracing and RC shear wall systems are selected as the global strengthening techniques in this study. Performance-based plastic design (PBPD) approach relying on energy-balance concept has been adopted to determine the required design force demand on the strengthening elements. Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses are carried out on the numerical models of study frames to assess the effectiveness of selected strengthening techniques in improving the seismic performance of OGS frame.. Strengthening techniques based on steel braces and RC shear wall significantly reduced the peak interstory drift response of the OGS frame. However, the peak floor acceleration of these strengthened frames is amplified by more than 2.5 times as compared to that of unstrengthened frame. Steel caging technique of column strengthening resulted in a reasonable reduction in the peak interstory drift response without substantial amplification in peak floor acceleration of the OSG frame.

A mechanical model of band sawing saw frame was established according to an analysis of a commonly used saw-frame structure diagram to overcome the problems of low service life, substandard cutting precision and efficiency, and high manufacturing cost caused by the unreasonable design of saw frame. Taking a particular type of sawing machine as an example, stress cycle analysis of the saw blade was carried out according to the mechanical model of the saw frame, and the fatigue analysis model of the most dangerous cross-section point that was most prone to fatigue failure of the saw blade was then established. The fatigue analysis result was used as the basis for the improved design of the saw frame, and the improved detailed saw-frame design parameters were obtained. The results suggested that the saw frame system is much more compact and the saw blade force met the fatigue strength requirements through the improved design. In addition, the service life of the saw blade and the cutting precision were increased. The established mechanical model of the saw frame in this paper is used widely and has high practical application values.

In the design process of an automobile part, several analysis methods are usually utilized to evaluate the performance of the part. However, most automobile design engineers do not directly utilize CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) tools since specific skills are required to obtain practical results. Moreover, CAE requires a huge amount of computation time and cost. In order to resolve these problems, a new design approach named First Order Analysis (FOA) technique has been proposed. In this paper, the FOA technique is employed to design a vehicle sub-frame. An equivalent model of the vehicle sub-frame which only consists of beam elements is proposed and the modal properties obtained with the model are compared to those obtained with a full scale finite element model. The effect of some parameter tolerances on the modal characteristics of the vehicle sub-frame is investigated by employing the FOA equivalent model.
