What changes in the eigen values and eigen functions are produced if the boundary surface S is no longer rigid but has a specific acoustic admittance which may vary from point to point on S. In this paper, changes in eigen values and eigen functions are derived by using Kirchhoff-Helmholtz integral equation. And acoustic potential energy, which is representative measure describing the physical quantity in cavity, is defined. Acoustic potential energy can be divided into primary one and secondary one. Primary one is the acoustic potential energy through unchanged eigen functions, and secondary one is through changed eigen functions. Using these two term, we can find the eigenvalue problem, which gives the control performance when the boundary condition is changed.

An analytical method for the free vibration of two annular plates coupled with water was developed by the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The two plates with unequal thickness are clamped along a rigid cylindrical vessel wall. It is assumed that the fluid bounded by a rigid cylindrical vessel is incompressible and non-viscous. The wet mode shape of the annular plates Is assumed as a combination of the dry mode shapes of the plates. The fluid motion is described by using the fluid displacement potential and determined by using the compatibility conditions along the fluid interface with the plate. Minimizing the Rayleigh quotient based on the energy conservation gives an eigenvalue problem. It is found that the theoretical results can predict well the fluid-coupled natural frequencies comparing with the finite element analysis result.

In this study, a general perturbation method is presented to reanalysis dynamic response of base-isolated systems. The perturbation is expanded to general order and which provide the formulation of perturbed solutions. in which eigensolutions of non-modified system are treated as unperturbed solutions. The accuracy of present method is tested using a 2-DOF system with isolator, where the stiffness and damping coefficients of isolator are changed, respectively, The reanalyzed eigensolutions and response using perturbed solutions are successfully approached to exact ones after just first perturbation. Supposing the practical criterion as ${\pm}5%$ error, the modification range of -50%~30% from original system can be allowed for the first order perturbation. Using higher order solutions, the applicable range will be wide.

This research deals with the wave dispersion analysis of functionally graded double-layered nanobeam systems (FG-DNBSs) considering the piezoelectric effect based on nonlocal strain gradient theory. The nanobeam is modeled via Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Material properties are considered to change gradually along the nanobeams' thickness on the basis of the rule of mixture. By implementing a Hamiltonian approach, the Euler-Lagrange equations of piezoelectric FG-DNBSs are obtained. Furthermore, applying an analytical solution, the dispersion relations of smart FG-DNBSs are derived by solving an eigenvalue problem. The effects of various parameters such as nonlocality, length scale parameter, interlayer stiffness, applied electric voltage, relative motions and gradient index on the wave dispersion characteristics of nanoscale beam have been investigated. Also, validity of reported results is proven in the framework of a diagram showing the convergence of this model's curve with that of a previous published attempt.

This paper presents an investigation of the mode localization and frequency loci veering phenomena in an aircraft with disordered external stores. Two theoretical analyses are carried out to study the occurring mechanism of the two phenomena: condensation technique in the subspace spanned by modes of interest and geometric mapping theory in the complex plane. Two simple criteria for predicting the occurrence of the mode localization and frequency loci veering are put forward. The prediction of the phenomena by our theoretically proposed criteria is in good agreement with that obtained through numerical calculations of characteristic solutions of the disordered system.

The effect of rotary inertia of concentrated masses on the natural vibration of the simply supported-simply supported fluid conveying pipe has been studied. For the analysis Galerkin's method is used fer transformation of the governing equation to the eigenvalue problem and the natural frequencies and mode shapes for the system have been found. Introduction of rotary inertia results in lots of change on the natural frequencies and mode shapes and its effect is highly noticed at the higher natural frequencies and mode shapes. Consideration of rotary inertia results in much decrease on the natural frequencies and its neglect could lead to erroneous results.

It is well known that the variance of tally is biased in a Monte Carlo calculation based on the power iteration method. Several studies have been conducted to estimate the real variance. Among them, the batch method, which was proposed by Gelbard and Prael, has been utilized actively in many Monte Carlo codes because the method is straightforward, and it is easy to implement the method in the codes. However, there is a problem when utilizing the batch method because the estimated variance varies depending on batch size. Often, the appropriate batch size is not realized before the completion of several Monte Carlo calculations. This study recognizes this shortcoming and addresses it by permitting selection of an appropriate batch size.

In this paper, a new efficient method for structural modal reanalysis is proposed, which can handle large finite element (FE) models requiring frequent design modifications. The global FE model is divided into a residual part not to be modified and a target part to be modified. Then, an automated matrix permutation and substructuring algorithm is applied to these parts independently. The reduced model for the residual part is calculated and saved in the initial analysis, and the target part is reduced repeatedly, whenever design modifications occur. Then, the reduced model for the target part is assembled with that of the residual part already saved; thus, the final reduced model corresponding to the new design is obtained easily and rapidly. Here, the formulation of the proposed method is derived in detail, and its computational efficiency and reanalysis ability are demonstrated through several engineering problems, including a topological modification.

We consider the boundary value problem for the deflection of a finite beam on an elastic foundation subject to vertical loading. We construct a one-to-one correspondence �� from the set of equivalent well-posed two-point boundary conditions to gl(4, ℂ). Using ��, we derive eigenconditions for the integral operator ��M for each well-posed two-point boundary condition represented by M ∈ gl(4, 8, ℂ). Special features of our eigenconditions include; (1) they isolate the effect of the boundary condition M on Spec ��M, (2) they connect Spec ��M to Spec ����,α,k whose structure has been well understood. Using our eigenconditions, we show that, for each nonzero real λ ∉ Spec ����,α,k, there exists a real well-posed boundary condition M such that λ ∈ Spec ��M. This in particular shows that the integral operators ��M, arising from well-posed boundary conditions, may not be positive nor contractive in general, as opposed to ����,α,k.

Isogeometric concept is introduced to find out the optimum layout of plane structure under free vibration. Eigenvalue problem is formulated and numerically solved in order to obtain natural frequencies and mode shapes of plane structures. For the exact geometric expression of the structure, the Non-Uniform Rational B-spline Surface (NURBS) basis functions is employed and it is also used to define the material density functions. A node-wise design variables is adopted to deal with the updating of material density in topology optimization (TO). The definition of modal strain energy is employed to achieve the maximization of fundamental frequency through its minimization. The verification of the proposed TO technique is performed by a series of benchmark test for plane structures.
