In highway bridges robust damage detection exercises are mandatory to secure the safety of the structures from hostile environmental conditions such as fatigue earthquake, wind, and corrosion. This paper presents a damage detection practice in a full-scale highway bridge by utilizing modal response parameters of as-built and damaged states of the structure. first the test structure is described and modal testing procedures are outlined. Next, a damage detection model which yields information on the location of damage directly from changes in mode shapes is outlined. Finally, the damage detection model is implemented to predict the location of damage in the ten structure. From the results, it was found that the damage detection model accurately locates damage in the test structures for which modal parameters of only a single mode are available for pre-damage (as-built) and post-damage stages.

This paper presents an experimental study on the dynamic characteristics of infilled reinforced concrete (RC) frames. A 1/3-scaled, one-bay, three-storey RC frame was produced and tested by using operational modal analysis (OMA). The experiments were performed on five specimens: one reference frame with no infill walls and four frames with infill walls. The RC frame systems included infill walls made of hollow clay brick, which were constructed in four different patterns. The dynamic characteristics of the patterns, including the frequency, mode shapes and damping ratios in the in-plane direction, were obtained by 6 accelerometers. Twenty-minute records under ambient vibration were collected for each model, and the dynamic characteristics were determined using the ambient vibration testing and modal identification software (ARTeMIS). The experimental studies showed that the infill walls significantly affected the frequency value, rigidity and damping ratio of the RC frame system.

구조적 경제적 효율성을 갖춘 다양한 형태의 철도교량이 중소경간 적용을 위해 개발되고 있다. PSC 거더의 긴장방법 차이에 따른 단면효율화, 허용응력이 서로 다른 강재와 콘크리트를 효율적으로 합성시킨 형태의 교량 들이 개발되고 있으며, 본 연구에서 다루는 프리스트레스트 강합성 거더도 그 중 한 예이다. 프리스트레스트 강합성 거더 교량은 구조적 개념에 따라 형고 및 자중을 줄이고 경간을 장대화할 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다. 그러나, 이와 같은 장대화된 보다 유연한 교량은 상대적으로 동적거동이 불리 할 수 있으며, 특히 철도교량의 경우 일정간격으로 반복되는 열차하중에 대한 공진 검토가 필수적이며, 동적응답의 검토 시 정확한 동특성 입력은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 정확한 고유진동수 및 감쇠비 추출을 위하여 실물 모형을 제작하여 모달테스트를 수행하였다. 모달테스트를 위한 가진방법으로 기존의 충격햄머와 디지털 콘트롤에 의한 가진기를 사용하였으며, 구조물 손상 후 동특성 변화 고찰을 위한 모달테스트도 수행하였다. 모달테스트 결과에 의한 동특성 값을 주행열차하중 해석에 적용하여 다양한 매개변수연구를 통한 철도교량 동적거동을 분석하였다. 동적처짐, 충격계수, 상판의 연직가속도, 단부꺾임각 등에 대하여 열차별, 속도별 동적해석을 수행하여 국내외 철도교량 동적성능 평가기준과 비교하였다.

Recently in the automotive brake industry brake squeal noise has become one of the top automotive quality warranty issues. The contact pressure is used to predict friction coupling in the brake squeal analysis. The formulation of friction coupling has performed by nonlinear static analysis prior to the complex eigenvalue analysis. This paper proposes a validation methodology of squeal analysis using modal testing and contact analysis and examines the effect of predicted contact pressure that leads to the discrepancy between unstable complex mode and squeal frequency. This studies compose a three step validation process : examining the modal characteristics of component and assembly loaded contact pressure using modal testing and FEM analysis and verifying the contact pressure distribution using nonlinear static analysis and experiment. Finally, the unstable modes from complex eigenvalue analysis and realistic squeal frequency from the noise dynamometer are investigated.

Fast Fourier Transformation(FFT) is one of the most useful way to analyze response signal for the purpose of grasping the dynamic characteristics of system. Excitation is a factor or process making noise or vibration. It's typical and simple experimental method widely used for catching hold of dynamic peculiar characters and modal behaviors of system by frequency analysis. There are harmonic excitation, impact excitation, random excitation, sweep excitation, chirp excitation and so on as the ideal method in an experiment using exciter. In this thesis, excitation testing module for NI-PXI equipment is developed. The analyzing module is developed with LabVIEW tool. A user can generate each waveform for shaking a structure and see quickly and easily modal shape of system with this module. This developed module will be expected to build up more convenient and serviceable measurement system.

유한요소 해석(FEA: finite element analysis)의 발달로 복잡한 기계나 자동차 및 구조물에 대해서도 상세한 진동해석을 할 수 있게 되었다. 그러나, 복잡한 구조물을 정확하게 모형화하기 어렵고, 특히 접합부의 강성과 감쇠 특성을 알기 어렵고, 복잡한 형상을 단순화하는 과정에서 발생하는 오차 등의 이유로 유한요소해석 결과는 부정확할 수 있다. 반면에 실제 구조물의 실험 데이터로부터 추출한 실험적 모드해석(modal testing) 결과는 상세하지는 않지만 정확하다고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 실험 결과가 구조물의 진동 특성을 정확하게 나타낸다는 가정은 여러 가지 측정 오차로 인하여 정확하지 않을 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 실험적 모드해석의 기본이 되는 FRF(frequency response function; 주파수 응답함수)의 측정에 영향을 미치는 오차들을 측정 오차와 신호처리 오차로 구분하여 각각에 대해 세밀히 살펴보고, 그러한 오차들을 감소함으로써 보다 정확한 FRF를 구하는 방법에 대해서 고찰해보았다.

The structural modification to install a heavy sensor was made at the front extremities of the foreign-produced helicopter operated in the Korea Navy Mounting the sensor directly to the nose structure is unlikely to be practical because it lowers a dynamic mode of the airframe close to rotor blade passing frequencies, leading to increased helicopter vibration. Unfortunately we have no information on dynamic characteristics of the imported helicopter. So the experimental modal model derived from shake testing on the overall airframe of a working helicopter was used to solve the sensor Installation problems. The sensitivity analysis was done to evaluate what the best of modification woo)d be. Simple ID model and experimental modal data for mount system with sensor were Incorporated into overall dynamic model to assess the effects of the sensor installation on helicopter. Modal testing for the modified helicopter shows that the airframe modes are sufficiently displaced from rotor passing frequencies. The mount system has been proven fight to be sufficiently stable to meet vibration-level requirement for all required operational profiles.

In this paper, a new damage-detection method based on structural vibration is proposed. The essence of the proposed method is the detection of abrupt changes in rotation. Damage-induced rotation (DIR), which is determined from the modal flexibility of the structure, initially occurs only at a specific damaged location. Therefore, damage can be localized by evaluating abrupt changes in rotation. We conducted numerical simulations of two damage scenarios using a 10-story cantilever-type building model. Measurement noise was also considered in the simulation. We compared the sensitivity of the proposed method to localize damage to that of two conventional modal-flexibility-based damage-detection methods, i.e., uniform load surface (ULS) and ULS curvature. The proposed method was able to localize damage in both damage scenarios for cantilever structures, but the conventional methods could not.

In this paper, the dynamic flexural stiffness of concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) members is investigated based on vibration modal testing and a Bayesian model updating procedure. To reflect the actual service states of CFST members, a 3-stage modal testing procedure is developed for 6 circular CFST beam-columns, in which the modal parameters of the specimens under varying axial load levels are extracted. In the model updating procedure, a Timoshenko beam element model is first established, in which the influence of shear deformation and rotational inertia are incorporated. Subsequently, a 2-round Bayesian model updating strategy is proposed to calculate the dynamic flexural stiffness of the specimens, which could effectively consider the influence of physical constraints in the updating process and achieve reasonably well results. Analysis of the updating results shows that with the increase of the axial load level, degradation of the flexural stiffness is significantly influenced by the load eccentricity. It shows that the cracking of the core concrete is the primary reason for the flexural stiffness degradation of CFST beam-columns. Finally, based on comparison with equations proposed by several design standards, the calculation methods for the dynamic flexural stiffness of CFST members is recommended.

Traditionally, it is not easy to carry out tests to identify modal parameters from existing railway bridges because of the testing conditions and complicated nature of civil structures. A six year (2007-2012) research program was conducted to monitor a group of 25 railway bridges. One of the tasks was to devise guidelines for identifying their modal parameters. This paper presents the experience acquired from such identification. The modal analysis of four representative bridges of this group is reported, which include B5, B15, B20 and B58A, crossing the Caraj$\acute{a}$s railway in northern Brazil using three different excitations sources: drop weight, free vibration after train passage, and ambient conditions. To extract the dynamic parameters from the recorded data, Stochastic Subspace Identification and Frequency Domain Decomposition methods were used. Finite-element models were constructed to facilitate the dynamic measurements. The results show good agreement between the measured and computed natural frequencies and mode shapes. The findings provide some guidelines on methods of excitation, record length of time, methods of modal analysis including the use of projected channel and harmonic detection, helping researchers and maintenance teams obtain good dynamic characteristics from measurement data.
