Linear dynamic simulations with one and two degrees of freedom were built from SIMULINK in MATLAB commercial program. Before starting the simulations, initial conditions and system parameters which are mass, spring constant and coefficient of damping are easily inputted by user through each pop-up window, and the conditions for the simulation including time step, analysis methodology and so on can be modified with ease. Also, as soon as the simulations are started, the windows for animations which shows deformed motions dynamically with real time are popped-up and the graphical results are shown in time and frequency domains, simultaneously, The results of the simulations were verified through some examples of textbooks of mechanical vibrations. It was found that the programs would help us to solve any kind of linear dynamic simulation for one and two degrees of freedom.

Adaptive feedforward control(AFC) is largely aimed for improving control performance of dynamic systems particularly involving periodic disturbance signals in engineering fields. This paper presents a novel hybrid AFC approach for specific systems with multiple disturbances in control input and state variables. The proposed AFC mechanism is hierarchically composed of the conventional AFC and a PID typed auxiliary control law in parallel. The former is generic to decrease periodic disturbance in control actuators and the latter is additionally constructed to overcome control deterioration due to time-varying uncertainty of given systems. We carry out numerical simulation to test reliability of the hybrid AFC system and compare its control performance with a well-known conventional AFC method in terms of time and frequency domains for proving of its superiority.

The contact characteristics of the current collection system are investigated by analyzing data collected during a test run of the Korean high speed rail vehicle. For the analysis, the signals from accelerometers and load cells attached to the various parts of the pantograph are analyzed in both the time and frequency domains. In the frequency domain, the pantograph response consists of low frequency components related to the rigid-body motion of the panhead assembly and high frequency components due to the structural vibration modes of the pantograph. The analysis shows that the inclusion of the high frequency structural vibration modes of the pantograph in the contact force calculation has a negligible effect on the predicted mean value of the contact force but significantly affects the magnitude of its fluctuations. This finding implies that numerical simulations using lumped element models of the pantograph may accurately predict the mean contact force but is limited in its capacity for predicting the fluctuation about the mean. Since the ratio of the fluctuation to the mean in the contact force increases with increased train speed, the limitation of the predictions based on numerical simulation results becomes more pronounced at higher train speed.

Typical negative group delay circuits (NGDC) are analyzed in terms of signal attenuation, group delay, and bandwidth using S-parameters. By inverting these formulations, we derive and present the design equations (for NGD circuit elements) for a desired specification of the two among the three parameters. The proposed design method is validated through simulation examples for narrow- and wide-band pulse inputs in the time and frequency domains. Moreover, an NGDC composed of lumped elements is fabricated at 1 GHz for measurement. As a function of frequency, the circuit-/EM-simulated and measured group delays are in good agreement. The provided simple NGDC design equations may be useful for many applications that require compensations of some signal delays.

This study presents a method for identifying partial discharge defects in an eco-friendly gas insulated system using a backpropagation algorithm. Four partial discharge (PD) electrode systems, namely, a free-moving particle, protrusion on the conductor, protrusion on the enclosure, and voids, were designed to simulate PD defects that can occur during the operation of eco-friendly gas-insulated switchgear. The PD signals were measured using an ultrahigh-frequency sensor as a nonconventional method based on IEC 62478. To identify the types of PD defects, the PD parameters of single PD pulses in the time and frequency domains and the phase-resolved partial discharge patterns were extracted, and a back-propagation algorithm in the artificial neural network was designed using a virtual instrument based on LabVIEW. The backpropagation algorithm proposed in this paper has an accuracy rate of over 90% for identifying the types of PD defects, and the result is expected to be used as a reference database for asset management and maintenance work for eco-friendly gas-insulated power equipment.

The structural vibration suppression with active constrained layer damping (ACLD) was widely studied recently. However, the literature seldom concerned with the vibration control on flow-induced vibration using active constrained layer. In this paper the wind induced vibration of cantilevered beam is analyzed and suppressed by using random theory together with a velocity feedback control strategy. The piezoelectric material and frequency dependent viscoelastic layer are used to achieve effective active damping in the vibration control. The transverse displacement and velocity in time and frequency domains, as well as the power spectral density and the mean-square value of the transverse displacement and velocity, are formulated under wind pressure at variable control gain. It is observed from the numerical results that the wind induced vibration can be significantly suppressed by using a small outside active voltage on the constrained layer.

DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial) is an important multimedia broadcasting technology capable of high data-rate transmission and adopted by Europe. OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) is the backbone technique employed in DVB-T to support multimedia services that have various bandwidths. Unfortunately, an OFDM signal has a large PAPR (Peak-to-Average Power Ratio). In this paper, we investigate the performance of a simple PAPR reduction scheme for the DVB-T system, which requires no change of a receiver structure or no additional information transmission. The approach we employed is clipping in the time and frequency domains. The time-domain clipping is carried out with a predetermined clipping level while the frequency-domain clipping is done within EVM (Error Vector Magnitude). This approach is suboptimal with lower computational complexity compared to the optimal method. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed one is getting more effective at lower modulation levels and with more allowed constellation error.

On face milling operation a new optimal cutter, which can minimize the resultant cutting forces, was designed from the cutting force model. Cutting experiments were carried out and the cutting forces of the new and conventional cutters were analyed in time and frequency domains. The resultant cutting forces were used as the objective function and cutter angles as the variables. A new optimal cutter design model which can minimize the resultant cutting forces under the constraints of variables was developed and its usefulness was proven. The cutting forces in feed direction of the newly designed cutter are reduced in comparison with those from the conventional cutter. The magnitudes of an insert frequency component of cutting force from the newly designed cutter are reduced than those from conventional cutter and the fluctuations of cutting force are also reduced.

Dynamic Characteristics of two different types of ER(electro-rheological)mounts ; flow and shear mode types are analyzed and compared. As a first step, field-dependent Bingham models of a chemically treated starch/silicone oil-based ER fluid are empirically identified under both flow and shear mode conditions. The models are them incorporated to the governing equation of the corresponding mode ER mount. For the reasonable comparison between two ER mounts, electrode parameters such as electrode gap are designed to be same. Dynamic stiffness and displacement transmissibility of each ER mount are evaluated in frequency domain with respect to the intensity of electric filed. In addition, vibration control capability of each ER mount is investigated in both frequency and time domains by employing the skyhook controller.

Vehicle vibration was introduced in the time and frequency domains using fast Fourier transform (FFT) analysis. In particular, a vibration mode analysis and characteristics of the frequency response function (FRF) in a sport utility vehicle (SUV) passing over a bump barrier at different speeds was performed systematically. The response behavior of the theoretical acceleration was obtained using a numerical method applied to the forced vibration model. The amplitude and frequency of the external force on the vehicle cause various power spectra with individual intrinsic system frequencies. In this regard, several modes of power spectra were acquired from the spectra and are discussed in this paper. The proposed technique can be used for monitoring the acceleration in a vehicle passing over a bump barrier. To acquire acceleration signals, various experimental runs were performed using the SUV. These acceleration signals were then used to acquire the FRF and to conduct mode analysis. The vehicle characteristics according to the vehicle condition were analyzed using FRF. In addition, the vehicle structural system and bump passing frequencies were discriminated based on their power spectra and other FRF spectra.
