The power flow analysis (PFA) can be effectively used to predict structural vibration in medium-to-high frequency ranges. In this paper, vibration experiments have been performed to observe the analytical characteristics of the power flow analysis of the vibration of various coupled plates. Those plates include two plates coupled with angles of $90^{\circ}$\;and\;30^{\circ}$, respectively. In the experiment, the loss factor and the input mobility at a source point on each coupled plate have been measured. The data for the loss factors have been used as the input data to predict the vibration of the coupled plates with PFA. The frequency response functions have been measured over the surface of the coupled plates. The comparison between the experimental results and the predicted PFA results for the frequency response functions has been performed.

The finite element analysis is frequently used to predict dynamic responses of complex structures. Since the predicted responses often differ from experimentally measured ones, updating of the finite element models is performed to make the finite element results agree with the measured ones. Among several model updating methods, one is to use FRF(frequency response function) data without a modal analysis. This paper investigates characteristics of the model updating method in order to improve the method. The investigation is focused on how to obtain FRFs for unmeasured rotational displacements and how to consider damping. For the investigation simulated data and experimental data for a cantilever beam are used.

Complex modal testing is employed for the in-situ parameter identification of a four-axis active magnetic bearing system while the system is in operation. In the test, magnetic bearings are used as exciters as well as actuators for feedback control. The experimental results show that the directional frequency response function, which is properly defined in the complex domain, is a powerful tool for identification of bearing as well as modal parameters. It is also shown that the position and current stiffnesses can be accurately estimated using the relations between the measured forces, displacements, and currents.

A spectral element model-based structural damage identification method (SDIM) was derived in the previous study by using the damage-induced changes in frequency response functions. However the previous SDIM often provides poor damage identification results because the nonlinear effect of damage magnitude was not taken into account. Thus, this paper improves the previous SDIM by taking into account the nonlinear effect of damage magnitude. Accordingly an iterative solution method is used in this study to solve the nonlinear matrix equation for local damages distribution. The present SDIM is evaluated through the numerically simulated damage identification tests.

An improved method based on a normal frequency response function (FRF) is proposed to identify structural parameters such as mass, stiffness and damping matrices directly from the FRFs of a linear mechanical system. The method for estimating structural parameters directly from the measured FRFs of a structure is presented. This paper demonstrates that the characteristic matrices are extracted more accurately by using a weighted equation and eliminating the matrix inverse operation. The method is verified for a four degree-of-freedom lumped parameter system and an eight degree-of-freedom finite element beam. Experimental verification is also performed for a free-free steel beam whose size and physical properties are the same as those of the finite element beam. The results show that the structural parameters, especially the damping matrix, can be estimated more accurately by the proposed method.

기계시스템의 비선형특성 해석을 위하여 여러가지 방법이 활용되고 있는데, 이들은 Nyquist 선도의 찌그러짐(distortion), Hilbert 변환, 복원력면(restoring force surface), NARMAX, 고차 주파수응답함수(higher order frequency response function), DPE(direct parameter estimation)를 이용한 방법등이다. 이들중 고차 FRF(frequency response function)는 그 개념이 선형시스템의 FRF와 유사하여 비선형시스템의 해석방법으로서 주목을 받고 있으나 아직은 고차 FRF의 특성에 대한 이론적 연구 단계이고, 고차 FRF로부터 비선형특성을 정량적으로 해석하는 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 다항식으로 표시되는 비선형성을 갖는 시스템이 정현파가진을 받을 때 그 응답의 가진주파수 성분은 가진력진폭과 고차 FRF의 무한급수로 나타낼 수 있다. 가진력의 진폭을 변화시켜가며 응답을 측정하고, 고차항을 무시하면 고차 FRF의 값을 근사적으로 구할 수 있다. 고차 FRF는 비선형 시스템의 매개변수의 식으로 나타낼 수 있으므로 이로부터 비선형 매개변수를 추정할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비선형강성과 비선형감쇠를 갖는 1자유도 시뮬레이션 시스템에 이 매개변수 추정법을 각각 적용함으로써 이 방법의 가능성을 고찰하였다.

The objective of this paper is to suggest an experimental technique to measure the out-of-plane vibration intensity of a coupled plate. In order to measure the out-of-plane vibration intensity of the plate, the frequency response technique has been implemented. In this technique, the 2-D intensity vector at a measurement point has been estimate from the frequency response functions measured at 4 points in the neighborhood of the measurement point. The experimental result has been compared with a theoretical result. It showed that the experimental technique can be effectively used to measure the out-of-plane vibration intensity of plates.

Modal testing and analysis is a primary tool for obtaining reliable models to represent the dynamics of structures. When a structure is tested in order to collect measured data in modal testing, we usually use attached accelerometers to pick up the response data. Change in modal parameters due to the mass of transducers in modal testing is a well-known problem. The disadvantages are the shift of measured modal frequencies and the change of modal shapes, which can cause inaccurate results in further analysis. Modal analysis methods in frequency domain are based on a set of measured frequency response functions(FRF).(omitted)

This paper presents a study on the system identification of the in-situ output shaft torque measurement system using a non-contacting magneto-elastic torque transducer installed in a vehicle drivline. The frequency response (transfer) function (FRF) analysis is conducted to interpret the dynamic interaction between the output shaft torque and road side excitation due to the road roughness. In order to identify the frequency response function of vehicle driveline system, two power spectral density (PSD) functions of two random signals: the road roughness profile synthesized from the road roughness index equation and the stationary noise torque extracted from the original torque signal, are first estimated. System identification results show that the output torque signal can be affected by the dynamic characteristics of vehicle driveline systems, as well as the road roughness.

The distributed-parameter structures expressed with the partial differential equations are considered as the infinite-dimensional dynamic system. For implementation of a controller in multivariate systems, it is necessary to derive the state-space reduced order model. By the eigensystem realization algorithm, we can yield tile subspace system with the Markov parameters derived from the measured frequency response function by the inverse discrete Fourier transformation. We also review the necessary conditions for the convergence of the approximation system and the error bounds in terms of the singular values of Markov-parameter matrices. To determine the natural frequencies and modal damping ratios, the modal coordinate transformation is applied to the realization system. The vibration test for a smart structure is performed to provide the records of frequency response functions used in the subspace system realization.
