The early damage detection of large structures is very important to prevent the disaster due to its global failure. In this paper, a crack detection method of the beam-analogy structure based on the wavelet transformation of mode shape is presented. The method can effectively detect the singularity of mode shape caused to the inconsistency of bending moment and shear force at the damaged part using the discrete wavelet of mode shape and its inverse transforms of detail components. To investigate the validity and the applicability of the presented damage detection method, numerical simulation and experiment are carried out for the idealized beam and the real ship structures.

Using isogeometric analysis(IGA) gives more accurate results for higher order mode in eigenvalue problem than using the finite element method(FEM). This is because the FEM has $C^0$ continuity between elements, whereas IGA guarantee $C^{P-1}$ between elements for p-th order basis functions. In this paper, a mode based reduced model is constructed by using IGA and dynamic behavior analysis is performed using this advantage. Craig-Bampton(CB) method is applied to construct the reduced model. Several numerical examples were performed to compare the eigenvalue analysis results for various order of element basis function by applying the IGA and FEM to simple rod analysis. We have confirmed that numerical error increases in the higher order mode as the continuity between elements decreases in the IGA by allowing internal knots multiplicity. The accuracy of the solution can be improved by using the IGA with high inter-element continuity when high-frequency external force acts on the reduced model for dynamic behavior analysis.

Wave propagation in gyrotropic or anisotropic medium is analyzed in terms of the eigenmodes of the medium, which are admixture of TE and TM waves. The field composition and the phase velocity of the modes are also determined. The results of the analysis are applied to thin film optical waveguide using such medium as substrate and/or film. Based on the characteristic equations for phase constants of the waveguide, the condition for TE-TM mode convection is derived, and wave propagation in the guide is represented in the form of Jones matrix, which allows a new interpretation in the conversion efficiency of the thin-film optical waveguides.

Swirl injector with multi-stage tangential entry was analyzed to suppress high-frequency combustion instability in Liquid Rocket Engines. In order to analyze the effect of swirl injector as an acoustic absorber, swirl injector was regarded as a quarter-wave resonator and it's damping capacity is verified in atmospheric temperature. It has a finite mode of vibration and natural frequencies which can be tuned to the natural frequencies of a model combustion chamber. When the targeted injector for each modes is located at anti-node point, the amplitude of modes was decreased. And when the injector of large diameter is mounted, the split of mode which accompanies the decrease of amplitude appeared. From the experimental data, it is proved that if the location of injector mounted is located at an anti-node position of the targeted modes with proper volume, the amplitude of modes is decreased and the split of modes occurs at anti-node point.

Simple Iteration Method for calculating the natural frequency is presented in this paper. This method is simple but exact method of calculating natural frequencies corresponding to the modes of vibration of beams and tower structures with irregular cross sections and arbitrary boundary conditions. This method consists of determining the deflected mode shape of the member due to the inertia force under resonance condition. Finite difference method is used for this purpose. The influence of the $D_{22}$ stiffness on the natural frequency is rigorously investigated. In this paper, the influence of the loading sizes, different cross section on the natural frequency of vibration of some structural elements is presented. This method extends to two dimensional problems including advanced composite material structures.

A damage in a structure changes its dynamic characteristics such as natural frequencies, damping ratios, and the mode shapes. In this paper the effort has been spent in obtaining the characteristics of the reduction ratio in natural frequencies and the damage detection is performed using the reduction ratios. Most of the emphasis has been on using the artificial neural network to determine the location and the extent of the damage as well as the existence of the damage. The data for learning and verifying neural network were obtained from the analytical analysis. The data have no errors. Considering the real measurements the data including errors which are difference this study between other studies also were used for neural network. The position and extent of the damage can be detected using the neural network trained by reduction ratios of natural frequencies.

A rotordynamic analysis is performed for a high thrust class liquid rocket engine turbopump considering the dynamic characteristics of ball bearings and pump noncontact seals. Complex eigenvalue problems are solved to predict the rotating natural frequencies and damping ratios as a function of rotating speeds. Synchronous rotor mass unbalance response and time transient response analyses are also performed to figure out the rotor critical speed and the onset speed of instability. From the numerical analysis, it is found that the rear bearing stiffness is most important parameter for the critical speed and instability because the 1st mode is turbine side shaft bending mode. The pump seal effect on the critical speed is enlarged as the rear bearing stiffness decreases and the front bearing stiffness increases.

In this study, as part of the development of an autonomous flying personal aircraft, an equivalent model of the main wing assembly of an Optionally Piloted Personal Air Vehicle (OPPAV) was developed. Reliability of the developed equivalent model was verified by eigenvalue analysis. The main wing assembly consisted of a main wing, an inboard pod, and an outboard pod. First, for developing an equivalent model of each component, components to produce the equivalent model were divided into several sections. Nodes were then created on the axis of the equivalent model at both ends of each section. In addition, static analysis with unit force and unit moment was performed to calculate the deformation or the amount of rotation at the node to be used in the equivalent model. Equivalent axial, bending, and torsional stiffness of each section were calculated by applying the beam theory. Once the equivalent stiffness of each section was calculated, information of a mass and moment of inertia for each section was entered by creating a lumped mass in the center of each section. An equivalent model was developed using beam element. Finally, the reliability of the developed equivalent model was verified by comparison with results of mode analysis of the fine model.

This paper propose electronic speckle pattern interferometry(ESPI) for reliability evaluation of electronic device. Especially, vibration problem in a fan of air conditioner, motor of washing machine and etc. is important factor to design the devices.

Vibration mode shapes, natural frequency and the range of the frequency are decided and compared with that of FEM analysis. In mechanical deign of new product, ESPI adds weak point of previous method to supply effective design information.

This paper presents a numerical analysis procedure and a characteristics for vibration and buckling of the cylinderical panels. The panels with simply-simply or simply-clamped edge supports are subjectes to circumferential compressive or flexural stresses. The differential equations governing vibration and buckling for these panels are derived by using the fundamental differential equation of the Love-Timoshenko and are solved numerically via the Galerkin method. The panel with simply-clamped edge supports is used a trigonometric function or a eigen function of a beam as a trial function and the effects of trial functions on numerical solutions are displayed. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the effects of the flexural parameters in natural frequencies and coefficients of critical buckling and some typical mode shapes of vibration and buckling are also presented.
