A prototype of 500Wh class flywheel energy storage device was designed and manufactured to check the previously predicted system performance. The system was intentionally designed to show rigid body behavior up to the maximum operating speed of 60000Tpm and to have its 2nd rigid critical mode, of which nodal point lies on the flywheel center of mass, around 4000 to 6000rpm with radial magnetic bearing stiffness of l.e+6 N/m. Numerous experiments an the system behavior showed that the PM axial bearing, designed utilizing a commercial code, acts as resonably as predicted and, most importantly, the system becomes stable after the 2nd critical speed. The EM radial bearing, however, was found out to have orthotropic property with much less radial stiffness values than expected, so that it was observed that the 2nd forward and backward critical modes were excited at 310 and 590rpm respectively with larger vibration amplitudes. Thus, in order to improve the system dynamic behavior, the EM radial bearing is currently being re designed so as to get bigger stiffness and, in turn, smoother operation of the system.

This paper presents a theoretical approach to describe the vibration characteristics in the 1-3 piezoelectric composite arrayed on a cylindrical surface. By homogenizing the composite composed of a piezoelectric ceramic and a polymer the physically useful parameters were defined and then used to derive the governing equation of radial motion for the cylindrical 1-3 piezoelectric composite. Applying mechanical and electric boundary conditions has yielded a characteristic equation for radial vibration of the composite. Theoretical calculations of the resonance frequency have been compared with those obtained by the finite-element analysis and have shown a good agreement.

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the noise and vibration characteristics of externally pressurized air proceeding bearings with a circular slot restrictor. To do this, the nonlinear transient analysis including rotor imbalance was performed for a rotor-bearing system. The effects of radial clearance and the width of the bearing and mass eccentricity of the rotor on the noise and vibration characteristics of the bearing are also examined. The results show that the noise and vibration of the rotor-bearing system first increase up to critical speed of the system, and then decrease up to instability threshold speed of the system as the rotational speed of the rotor increases, and the noise of the bearing is markedly influenced by the mass eccentricity of the rotor and the radial clearance and the width of the bearing.

SRM Drives generate large vibration and acoustic noise because it is rotated by step pulse mmf and switching commutation mechanism. The main vibration source of SRM Drive is generated by rapidly variation of radial force when phase winding current is extinguished for commutation action. So the rapidly variation of radial force is repressed firstly to reduce vibrating force of SRM Drive. This paper suggests the vibration reduction method that SRM Drive with unidirect-short compensation winding is excited by a two stage commutation method at commutation period. This reduction effect of vibration is verified with the result obtained in the test of prototype machine.

In this paper, the vibration source of IPM type BLDC motor was analyzed by finite element method. The main causes of the electrical vibration were RMF(Radial magnetic force) and cogging torque. It was designed model of minimized cogging torque and RMF equilibrium. Design models were selected the optimum model using the design of experiment method. And, the vibration experiment was carried out through prototype machine of each model. Finally, the experimental results were compared with the analysis ones.

The study of the vibration characteristics of annular sector plates which are clamped along their inner circumferential edge is important for structural engineers. The present analysis consists of experimental method and numerical method. The experimental method using time-average holographic interferometry is obtained vibration modes and frequencies. The experimental results are verified by a numerical method using F.E.M. The important aspects of the present paper is the dependence of the natural frequencies and the mode shape on the annular area changing sector angle. The radial nodal lines converge to the center of the plate. As increasing sector angle, the radial modes are predominant.

We propose and experimentally demonstrate an effective method to reduce near-field speckle noise at the output of a 50 ${\mu}m$ graded index multimode fiber using a short cylindrical piezoelectric transducer(PZT) vibrating in the radial direction. The fiber was coiled as tightly as possible around the mandrel of the PZT and a periodic stretching effect was caused by the radial oscillations of the actuator. The output of the optical fiber using the He-Ne laser source was intensively observed by a CCD camera. By counting all the pixels corresponding to relative intensity graded into 256 levels in the selected area and by calculating standard deviation and mean value of the intensity, we could measure the speckle contrast and vibration effect quantitatively with reduction ratio of pixels and line profile of the illuminated region. It was clearly observed that the characteristics of the speckle pattern in the vibration-on state were significantly improved over that of the vibration-off state due to time-averaged smoothing.

Switched reluctance motor(SRM) has simple magnetic structure, and requires simple power electronic driving circuit. It is very useful for wide range adjustable speed drive system. But, SRM drive generates large vibration and acoustic noise because it is commutated individually by step pulse m.m.f of each phase pole. In the vibration and acoustic noise characteristics. The considerable vibration and noise is induced by radial deforming of stator, so the frequency of dominant vibration and noise is coincident with the frequency of natural mode frequency of mechanical structure. This radial vibration force is generated in the phase commutation region. This paper suggests the new electromagnetic structure of SRM with auxiliary commutation winding which is excited by direct current. This phase and commutation winding are coupled magnetically between one phase winding and the other. Therefore, the switch-off phase current is absorbed by the another phase winding. By this interaction of phase and commutation winding in commutation mechanism, vibration and noise is reduced. And this reduction effect is examined by the test of prototype machine. As a result, SRM with DC exciting commutation winding is very useful to reduce vibration and acoustic noise.
