This paper deals with an analysis and countermeasure of escalator vibration. The vibration characteristics of escalators are studied theoretically and experimentally to fine the main cause of severe vibration. The main source of vibration in escalators is found to be chordal effect due to the step chain and sprocket system. It is also found that the vibration become significantly large at so called no load condition, in which the load due to passengers, during down-moving, is equal to the resistive force in the driving system. Dynamic absorbers are implemented to suppress the vibration, A theoretical analysis is made to determine the appropriate dynamic absorber. Theoretical and experimental study shows that dynamic absorber is effective to suppress the vibration in escalators.

Development of the linear motors is recently required to control a high-speed and high-resolution in the high-integrated and speed process industry. This paper presents vibration analyses as well as measurement standards of the newly developed linear motors through analyzing the vibration characteristics of the advanced products. Vibration experiments are conducted for identifying vibration level during operation. They are also included in the modal test to analyze dynamic characteristics. Analytic data using Finite Element Method (FEM) are compared with the results of the modal. The FEM and experiments make it possible to understand these characteristics. Further, through computer simulation for the behavior of moving part to be vibration source, the best acceleration pattern of moving part movement can be verified to achieve effective moving part positioning and reduce the vibration due to moving part movement.

This paper deals with noise reduction on a light source driving board in a projector. We analyze causes of noise/vibration in the circuit with the present increasing use of LD and LED driving boards. The main source of noise is the MLCC in the driving board. Our aim is to investigate how the mechanical arrangement of the circuit elements affects noise reduction. The result of our experiment shows that noise can be reduced by symmetrical arrangement and slots in PCB. This result is expected to facilitate a variety of applications for manufactures without a need to change circuit elements.

The magnets and vacuum chambers, which are the main facilities of the Pohang light source are installed on the storage-ring girders. System safety and reliability should be taken into account for the precise operating of the main facilities, so vibration analysis is essential to do this. Static and seismic analyses were performed for the design of structure considering safety, and also frequency and response spectrum analyses were performed for the precise alignment. With these results, the effects of surrounding vibration were checked. This paper explains about the design and vibration analysis of girder systems.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the characteristics of a new heavy weight impactor, the Rubber Ball. Until now Bang-machine has been used to measure the heavy impact noise in accordance with JIS A 1418-1. However, various kinds of examination methods have been needed to make an objective observation of insulation capacity for floor impact noises. Two types of experiments were undertaken. First, the experiment about noise was carried out about an apartment building in actual living condition. Then. vibration noises from the impactors were analyzed. The results of this study were as follows : the result of experiment carried out with bonded area of bail was closer to practical experiment than that of non bonded area. In addition, the result about bonded area of ball was more similar to the result which is claimed by H. Tachibana than that about non bonded area. Moreover, it was found that Rubber Ball has more similar vibration characteristics to the real impact noise source than Bang-machine.

With recent advanced in portable electric devices, wireless sensor, MEMS and bio-Mechanics device, the new typed power supply, not conventional battery but self-powered energy source is needed. Particularly, the system that harvests from their environments are interests for use in self powered devices. For very low powered devices, environmental energy may be enough to use power source. In the generality of cases, these energy harvesting systems are used in the piezoelectric materials as mechanisms to convert mechanical vibration energy into electric energy. Through the piezoelectric materials, the ambient vibration energy could be used to prolong the power supply or in the ideal case provide endless energy f9r the devices. Therefore, the piezoelectric power harvesting cantilever beam is developed. Also, the output voltage and power are predicted in this study. We also discuss the developing system of the piezoelectric energy scavenger. An experimental verification of the model is also performed to ensure its accuracy.

The non-preiodic fluctuation of the engine torque appears to be the major source of the torsional vibration of the automotive driveline. The reduction of this torsional vibration hs become a significant problem along with the requirements of higher performance. The shuffle(tip-in, tip-out) is the transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle which appears at the sudden change of an accelerator under traveling. By executing of an experiment and a simulation using a model, it has become possible to obtain the design parameter of a driveline for the torsional vibration. This paper presents an experimental and theoretical research on the transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle which appears at the sudden change of an accelerator under traveling. A dynamic model for the automotive driveline was developed, and all parameters of the mmdel were evaluated with experimental data. The results are as follows: (1) The lower the gea ratio of the transmission is, the more the transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle appears clearly. (2) The transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle is affected by the design parmeter of the driveline.

Rubber mounts so called grommets and pipes are two major paths of vibration transmission from a compressor, an important vibration source in an air conditioner, to the whole unit. A procedure of configuring the suction and discharge pipes of the compressor was developed in this paper so as to reduce the vibration transmission through the pipes as well as the grommets. Through investigating the effects of shapes and connecting disrections of pipe elements on vibration transmission, a guideline to configure the pipe layout, which enables to reduce vibration transmission, was proposed. The initial pipe layout by the guideline was optimized with the objective function, minimization of boty vibration transmission and the cost, and with the constraints to yield the final dimensions of the pipes. The procedure not only minimizes the transmitted force to the circumferential devices but enables to eliminate rubber blocks or dampers, which are generally used to avoid resonances of the pipe system.

In this study, field measurements and analysis of vibration before and after the installation of continuously welded rail were performed. The vibration data obtained at the same locations before and after were analyzed to find out the characteristics of vibration level. The component of train-induced impulsive vibration at the rail joints varies depending upon the distance from the source, however mostly low frequency vibration which propagates long distance causes the problems of vibration. Even though it is expected that there may be certain degree of discrepancy in the amount of reduction in vibration depending upon site ground conditions, it was found that installation of continuously welded rail shows reduction in train-induced vibration.
