In this study, we investigate the plugging effect on the CE type steam generator tube. The natural frequency and mode shape will be changed due to decrease of the effective mass distribution along the tube. We compared the variation of stability ratio for plugged tube with that fur unplugged one. The natural frequency increased because of removing the cooling water inside the steam generator tube, but the stability ratio decreased inversely because of changing the vibrational mode shape. We also investigated the turbulent excitation effect.

Natural frequencies of non-symmetrically tapered beams with simply supported ends were determined by solving the frequency equations. In the case of symmetrically tapered beams. the finite element method was adopted for frequency computation. Computed frequencies of tapered beams were expressed as functions of taper ratio. a. and sectional properties. ( m, n).

This paper deals with free vibrations of the tapered circular arches with constant volume, whose cross sectional shape is the solid regular polygon. Volumes of the objective arches are always held constant regardless shape functions of the cross-sectional depth. The shape functions are chosen as the linear, parabolic and sinusoidal ones. Ordinary differential equations governing free vibrations of such arches are derived and solved numerically for determining the natural frequencies. In the numerical examples, hinged-hinged, hinged-clamped and clamped-clamped end constraints are considered. As the numerical results, the relationships between non-dimensional frequency parameters and various arch parameters such as rise ratio, section ratio, side number, volume ratio and taper type are reported in tables and figures.

The effect of Chitosan (CS), Carbon Nanotube (CNT) and hybrid (CS-CNT) fillers on the natural frequency of drilled composite plate is investigated by experimentally in this study. The numerical validation is also made with a program based on Finite Element Method (SolidWorks). Nine types filled and one neat composite plates are used in the study. The fillers ratios are 1% CS, 2% CS, 3% CS, 0.1% CNT, 0.2% CNT, 0.3% CNT, 1% CS+0.3% CNT, 2% CS+0.3% CNT, 3% CS+0.3% CNT. The specimens cut to certain sizes by water jet from the plates 400 mm × 400 mm in dimensions. Some of them are drilled in certain dimensions with drill. The natural frequency of each specimen is measured by the vibration test set up to determine the vibration characteristic. The vibration test set up includes an accelerometer, a current source power unit, a data acquisition card and a computer. A code is written in Matlab^® program for the signal processing. The study are investigated and discussed in four main points to understand the effect of the fillers on the natural frequency of the composite plate. These are the effect of fillers contents and amounts, orientation angles of fibers, holes numbers and holes sizes. As results, the natural frequency of the plate with 1% CS and 0.1% CNT hybrid filler is lower than those of the plates with other fillers ratios for 45° orientation angle. Besides, in the composite plate with 0° orientation angle, the natural frequency increases with increasing the filler ratio. Moreover, the natural frequency increases until a certain hole number and then it decreases. Furthermore, the natural frequency is not affected until a certain hole diameter but then it decreases.

The objective of this study is to evaluate residual seismic capacity of Unreinforced Masonry(URM) walls which were damaged by earthquake through the measurement of frequency. Three URM walls which made the shape ratio(1/h, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0)to be a variable were tested for the objective. It was seen that the natural frequency decreased with growing at rotation angle. Also, this study found out that residual seismic capacity and natural frequency of URM walls is correlative.

We as modal parameter estimation technique by developing a residual based system reconstruction and using the system matrix coordinate transformation. The modal parameters can be estimated from and residues of the system transfer functions expressed in modal coordinate basis, derived from the state space system matrices. However, for modal parameter estimation of multivariable and order structural systems over broad frequency bands, this non-iterative algorithm gives high accuracy in the natural fre- and damping ratios. From vibration tests on cross-ply and angle-ply composite laminates, the natural frequencies and damping ratios on be estimated using tile coordinates of the structural system reconstructed fro the experimental frequency response. These results are compared with those of finite element analysis and single-degree-of-freedom curve-fitting.

The natural frequencies of a long span bridge vary during its construction and it is thus difficult to apply traditional tuned liquid column dampers (TLCD) with a fixed configuration to reduce bridge vibration. The restriction of TLCD imposed by frequency tuning requirement also make it difficult to be applied to structure with either very low or high natural frequency. A semi-active tuned liquid column damper (SATLCD), whose natural frequency can be altered by active control of liquid column pressure, is studied in this paper. The principle of SATLCD with adaptive tuning capacity is first introduced. The analytical models are then developed for lateral vibration of a structure with SATLCD and torsional vibration of a structure with SATLCD, respectively, under either harmonic or white noise excitation. The non-linear damping property of SATLCD is linearized by an equivalent linearization technique. Extensive parametric studies are finally carried out in the frequency domain to find the beneficial parameters by which the maximum vibration reduction can be achieved. The key parameters investigated include the distance from the centre line of SATLCD to the rotational axis of a structure, the ratio of horizontal length to the total length of liquid column, head loss coefficient, and frequency offset ratio. The investigations demonstrate that SATLCD can provide a greater flexibility for its application in practice and achieve a high degree of vibration reduction. The sensitivity of SATLCD to the frequency offset between the damper and structure can be improved by adapting its frequency precisely to the measured structural frequency.

A modeling method for the vibration analysis of rotating multi-blade systems considering the coupling stiffness effect is presented in this paper. Blades are assumed as cantilever beams and the coupling stiffness effect originates from disc or shroud between blades. As the angular speed, hub radius ratio, and the coupling stiffness vary, the natural frequencies of the system vary. Numerical results show that the coupling stiffness is very important to estimate the natural frequencies. Along with the natural frequencies, associated mode shapes, critical angular speed, and critical hub radius ratio are obtained through the analysis.
