A method based on frequency domain approaches is presented for the nonlinear parameters identification of structure having nonlinear joints. The finite element model of linear substructure is us ed to calculating its frequency response functions needed in parameter identification process. This method is easily applicable to a complex real structure having nonlinear elements since it uses the frequency response function of finite element model. Since this method is performed in frequency domain, the number of equations required to identify the unknown parameters can be easily increased as many as it needed, just by not only varying excitation amplitude but also selecting excitation frequencies. The validity of this method is tested numerically and experimentally with a cantilever beam having the nonlinear element. It was verified through examples that the method is useful to identify the nonlinear parameters of a structure having arbitary nonlinear boundaries.

This paper deals with the experimental validation of the use of PVDF Patches for the assessment of spatial derivatives of displacement field. It focuses more exactly on the shear Force Identification by using Specific forms of PVDF patcHes (FISH) on beams. An overview of the theoretical approach is exposed. The principle is based on the use of the weak form of the equation of motion of the beam which allows the shear forces to be extracted at one edge of the sensor when this last has a specific form. The experimental validation is carried out with a cantilever steel beam, excited by a shaker at its free boundary. The validation consists in comparing the shear force measured by the designed sensor glued at the free edge and the directly measured force applied by the shaker. The sensor is made of two patches, called the "stiffness" patch and the "mass" patch. The use of both patches allows one to identify correctly the shear force on a large frequency domain. The use of only the stiffness patch is valid in the low frequency domain and has the advantage to have a frequency-independent gain that allows its use in real time.

Full-range spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) with a 1-${\mu}m$ band light source is shown here. The phase of the reference beam is continuously stepped while the probing beam scans the sample laterally (B-scan). The two dimensional spectral interferogram obtained is processed by a Fourier transform method to obtain a complex spectrum leading to a full-range OCT image. A detailed mathematical explanation of the complex conjugate resolving method utilized is provided. The system's measurement speed was 7.96 kHz, the measured axial resolution was $9.6{\mu}m$ in air and the maximum sensitivity 99.4 dB. To demonstrate the effect of mirror image elimination, In vivo human eye pathology was measured.

Over the past decade the experimental technique of THz time domain spectroscopy (㎔- TDS) has proved to be a versatile method for investigating a wide range of phenomena in the ㎔ or far infrared spectral region from 100 ㎓ to 5 ㎔. This paper reviews some recent results of the Ultrafast ㎔ Research Group at Oklahoma State University using ㎔-TDS as a characterization tool. The experimental technique is described along with recent results on ㎔ beam propagation and how ㎔ beam profiles arise from propagation of pulse fronts along caustics. To illustrate how spatio-temporal electric field measurements can determine material properties over a wide spectral range, propagation of ㎔ pulses through systems exhibiting frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR) are reviewed. Finally two potential metrology applications of ㎔-TDS are discussed, thin film characterization and non-destructive evaluation of ceramics. Although ㎔-TDS has been confined to the research laboratory, the focus on application may stimulate the adoption of ㎔- TDS for industrial or metrology applications.

An approach to 3D visualization of multiple sound sources has been developed with the application of a moving array technique. Frequency-domain beamforming algorithm is used to generate a beam power map and the sound source is modeled as a point source. When a conventional delay and sum beamformer is used, it is considered that 2D distribution of sensors leads to have deficiency in spatial resolution along a measurement distance. The goal of moving an array in this study is to form 3D array aperture surrounding multiple sound sources so that the improved spatial resolution in a virtual space can be expected. Numerical simulation was made to examine source localization capabilities of various shapes of array. The 3D beam power maps of hemispherical and spherical distribution are found to have very sharp resolution. For experiments, two sound sources were placed in the middle of defined virtual space and arc-shaped line array was rotated around the sources. It is observed that spherical array show the most accurate determination of multiple sources' positions.

현재까지 구조건전성 모니터링과 관련하여 제안된 대부분의 손상인식기법은 모달영역응답을 이용하고 있으나, 모달영역응답은 별도의 후처리가 필요하며 추출과정에서 오차를 포함하게 되므로 손상인식의 정확성을 저하시키는 요인이 되어왔다. 본 논문에서는 이동하중응답을 직접 이용하는 손상인식기법의 적용성을 실내 실험을 통하여 검증하였다. 실험은 강재로 만든 보에 이동하중을 재하시켜 수행하였으며, 보의 응답은 변위계를 이용하여 측정하였다. 이동하중은 쇠구슬과 활강장치를 이용하여 모사하였으며, 주기성과 비주기성 이동하중으로 구분하여 재하하였다. 계측된 응답을 이용한 손상인식 결과, 이동하중을 이용한 손상인식기법은 구조물의 손상을 성공적으로 탐지하는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 Nayfeh등과 이원경과 소강영은 조화가진하의 핀과 꺽쇠로 고정 된 보(hinged-clamped beam)의 강제 진동 해석을 통하여 점근적으로 안정한 정상상태 응답이 둘 이상 존재할 수 있음을 알게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 이 경우에 접근적으 로 안정한두 정상상태 응답을 구하고 이들 안정한 해로 각각 흡인되는 초기조건들의 집합인 흡인영역을 보간사상법(interpolated mapping method)과 직접 수치적분에 의해 구한 후 서로 비교하였다.

본 논문에서는 ESPAR(Electronically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator) 안테나를 이용한 $M{\times}M$ BS-MIMO(beam space multiple input multiple output) 시스템을 제안한다. 기존 MIMO 시스템은 전송 데이터 신호를 다수의 안테나에 맵핑시켜 전송하기 때문에 다수의 RF 체인이 필요한 문제점이 있다. 다수의 RF 체인은 하드웨어의 비용을 및 RF 회로의 전력 소모를 증가 시킨다. 또한, 휴대폰과 같이 공간적인 제약이 큰 모바일 장비에서 MIMO 시스템을 사용하기 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 단일 RF 체인을 가지는 ESPAR 안테나를 사용하여 빔 공간에서 신호를 맵핑시키는 BS-MIMO 시스템이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 BS-MIMO 시스템 기법에 대해서 설명하고 이를 확장한 $M{\times}M$ BS-MIMO 전송 기법의 설계 및 성능을 분석한다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통한 성능 확인 결과 제안된 BS-MIMO 전송기법은 기존 MIMO 기법과 비교하여 거의 동일한 수신 BER 성능을 얻는다. 따라서 다수의 RF 체인을 가지는 기존 MIMO 시스템과 비교하여 BS-MIMO 시스템은 단일 RF 체인을 가지고 MIMO 전송이 가능하며, 이로 인해서 하드웨어 비용 및 RF 회로의 전력 소모를 획기적으로 줄일 것으로 예상된다.

In this research, an active vibration suppression of a smart beam having piezoelectric sensor and actuators is investigated by designing separate controllers comprising a linear quadratic regulator and a neural network. Firstly, design of a smart beam which consists of a cantilever aluminum beam with surface bonded piezoelectric patches and a designed mechanism having a micro servomotor with a mass attached arm for obtaining variations in the frequency response function are presented. Secondly, the frequency response functions of the smart beam are investigated experimentally by using different piezoelectric patch combinations and the analytical models of the smart beam around its first resonance frequency region for various servomotor arm angle configurations are obtained. Then, a linear quadratic regulator controller is designed and used to simulate the suppression of free and forced vibrations which are performed both in time and frequency domain. In parallel to simulations, experiments are conducted to observe the closed loop behavior of the smart beam and the results are compared as well. Finally, active vibration suppression of the smart beam is investigated by using a linear controller with a neural network based adaptive element which is designed for the purpose of overcoming the undesired consequences due to variations in the real system.
