A resonance is the one of major reasons of vibration problems occurred in industrial fields. To reduce vibration level due to resonance, structure reinforcements or change of the dynamic characteristics is generally applied. In this paper, the troublesome vibration levels of the motor shaft and auxiliary condensate pump are reduced by avoiding resonance.

As a major component of a power plant, a turbine generator must have sufficient reliability. Longer blades have lower natural frequency, thereby requiring that the design of the shaft and blade takes into account the coupling of the blade vibration mode, nodal diameter k=0 and k=1 with vibration of the shaft. The present work analyzes the coupling of the translation motion of the shaft with in-plane vibration of the blades with k=1 modes. At a rotational speed ${\Omega}_1=|{\omega}_s-{\omega}_b|$, the resonance of the blades has a relatively large amplitude. A violent coupled resonance was observed at a rotational speed ${\Omega}_2=|{\omega}_s+{\omega}_b|$. Resonance in blade vibration at ${\Omega}_1=|{\omega}_s-{\omega}_b|$ was experimentally confirmed.

This paper presents phenomena of vibration and noise due to acoustic resonance in tube bank of a power plant. Acoustic resonance is may arise when the vortex shedding frequency coincides with the acoustic natural frequency. At the resonance, the value of vibration in this system was 595 ${\mu}m$, p-p and the sound pressure level was maximum 103 dBA. And the resonance frequency was found to be 35 Hz. When the difference of vortex shedding frequency and acoustic natural frequency is within ${\pm}20%$, acoustic resonance is possible. In this system, the difference of these frequencies was 1.8%. We can evaluate the possibility of acoustic resonance by using damping parameter. We did eliminate acoustic resonance by installing baffle in tube bank. After installing baffle, the level of vibration and noise was reduced dramatically.

As the most precision equipment requiring very strict vibration environment are vulnerable to the surrounding vibration condition, they adapt the passive or active vibration isolation system. When it comes to the passive isolation system, the resonance of the isolation system causes excessive resonance response, and finally results in the degrade the equipment performance. This paper deals with the active control method to control this resonance induced response, and includes the experiment on the active control for controlling the resonance response on the table against the excitation of the same frequency with the natural frequency of the isolation system. The electromagnetic actuator was designed and the control effect was verified by the experiment. The experiment showed that the electromagnetic actuator is effective for controlling the low frequency isolation resonance response of the precision equipment.

This paper reports a peculiar example of flow-induced vibration in a very large plant and the whole procedure of reducing the vibration. During the operation of flue gas desurfurization unit of the thermal power plant, serious vibration was dtected at all around the plant. The worst vibration was recorded on the heat exchanger surface, which weighed 180 tones, as 17.8 m/$s^2$ in vibration amplitude at 34 Hz. To identify the vibration, frequency analysis on the response vibration as well as on the expected excitation forces and the system resonance was executed. This investigation revealed that the cause of the vibration was vortex shedding from the circular pipes in the heat exchanger. Vortices from the pipes excited acoustic resonance in the heat exchanger room, which, in turn, made the structure vibrate. Through inserting the baffles between the pipes, which had an effect of cutting the acoustic wave at resonance frequency, the vibration was eliminated dramatically.

This paper presents phenomena of vibration and noise due to acoustic resonance in tube bank of a large fossil power plant. The phenomena of acoustic resonance may arise when the vortex shedding frequency coincides with the acoustic natural frequency. In this system dominant frequency of vibration and noise was 37.5Hz. The $3^{rd}$ acoustic natural frequency calculated was 37.2 Hz. When the difference of vortex shedding frequency and acoustic natural frequency is within ${\pm}20%$, acoustic resonance could occur. If system is the state of acoustic resonance, vibration and noise become large. In order to prevent acoustic resonance, anti-noise baffle should be installed in the tube bank. In the case of installing baffle, we should consider the number of baffle and the effect of acoustic mode due to baffle extension length. To do this, we did acoustic mode analysis. After installing anti-noise baffle, acoustic resonance was disappeared and vibration magnitude and noise level was reduced dramatically.

The direction of the cutting tool plays a critical role in elliptical vibration cutting(EVC) where the cutting tool cuts workpiece in a trochoidal motion. In this study, EVC cutting device was developed using two parallel piezoelectric materials and it was observed that the rotation direction of the tool reverses as the EVC device undergoes resonance at which either flexural(cutting direction) or longitudinal( thrust direction) mode shapes occurs. To analytically explain reversal of the rotation direction, kinematic motion analysis of the tool was modified to incorporate amplification of the vibration amplitude and phase introduced by resonance. It successfully demonstrated, through Matlab simulation, reversal of the rotation direction of the cutting tool as the excitation frequency increases beyond resonance frequencies at which either flexural or longitudinal vibration occurs.

This paper presents phenomena of vibration and noise due to acoustic resonance in tube bank of a HRSG. Acoustic resonance is may arise when the vortex shedding frequency coincides with the acoustic natural frequency. At this tube bank, dominant frequencies of vibration in this system were 43.5, 67.5㎐. The 3$\^$rd/ acoustic natural frequency calculated was 68.5㎐. When the difference of vortex shedding frequency and acoustic natural frequency is within ${\pm}$20%, acoustic resonance could occur. In this system, in order to prevent acoustic resonance, acoustic baffle was installed in the tube bank before operating. But acoustic resonance occurred. So, we evaluate the effect of acoustic mode due to baffle extension length. After investigating, we did revise acoustic baffle to eliminate acoustic resonance effectively.

The test specimen in environmental vibration test is connected to the fixture through several attachment points. The forces generated by the shaker must be transmitted equally to all attachment points. The forces transmitted to attachment points, however, are different because of the flexural vibration of the fixture. The variations of the transmitted force cause the under-test, especially at anti-resonance frequencies, in vibration test control. Anti-resonance frequencies at the attachment points of the fixture must be same in order to avoid the under-test in vibration test control. The structural modification of the fixture is needed so that anti-resonance frequencies at attachment points have the same value. In this paper, the method to calculate the anti-resonance frequencies and those sensitivities is presented. This sensitivity analysis is applied to the structural modification of the fixture excited at multi-points by the shaker. The antiresonance frequencies at the attachment points of the fixture can have the same value after structural modification, and the under-test in the vibration test control can be removed. Several computer simulations show that the proposed method can remove the under-tests, which are not removed in conventional vibration test control.

The cantilever beam with nonlinearity has many dynamic characteristics of nonlinear vibration. Nonlinear terms of a flexible cantilever beam include inertia, spring, damping, and warping. When the beam is given basic harmonic excitation, it shows planar and nonplanar vibrations due to one-to-one resonance. And when the one-to-one resonance occurs, the flexible beam shows different behaviors in those vibrations. For the one-to-one resonance occurring in each mode, the phase value of the planar vibration is different from that of the nonlinear vibration. This paper investigates the phase change and the phase difference between such planar and nonplanar vibrations which are caused by one-to-one resonance.
