A reactor vibration monitoring has been performed using neutron noise obtained from excore detectors for the safety operation, Traditionally, the spectral estimator based on Fourier analysis has been widely used in the noise analysis of the reactor system. If the bias is too severe, the resolution would not be adequate for a given application. One major motivation for the current interests in the parametric approach to spectral estimation is the apparent higher resolution achievable with these modern techniques. In considering an unbias, a consistency, an efficency, and a minimum lower bound of the statictic estimation, an AR model is appropriate for noise spectral estimation with sharp peaks but not deep valley. In order to select an appropriate model order, the lag value of autocorrleaton function is applied. Burg method to trace the vibration mode of RPV internal is the most sucuessful.

This paper presents the extraction of natural frequencies and mode shapes of a cable-stayed bridge using data acquired from GNSS. The response signals of 6 GNSS measuring points installed at the Seohae cable-stayed bridge are used for analysis of dynamic characteristics. Using normalization process and a third order Butterworth filter for the measured signals, the related pass band's signals have been isolated. Then, the acceleration data by double differentiation for these signals are obtained. Total five natural frequencies have been extracted by the fast Fourier transform and compared to the results of different studies. For the acceleration obtained from GNSS signals, the mode shapes of the bridge have been successfully extracted by TDD technique.

Damage location and extent could be detected by the inverse analysis on dynamic response of the damaged structure. In general, detection of damage location is possible by the observation of the mode shape difference between undamaged and damaged structure and assessment of stiffness reduction is possible by the observation of the natural frequency difference of them. The study on damage detection by the dynamic response in civil structures is reported enough and in practical use, but in building structures it is reported seldom due to several problems. The purpose of this study is to present the damage detection method on shear building structures by mode shape. The damage location index using 1st mode shape is observed theoretically to find out damage location. The damage detection method is applied to numerical analysis model such as MATLAB and MIDAS GENw for the verification. Finally the shaking table test on 3 story shear building is performed for the examination of the damage detection method. In shaking table results, as the story stiffness decrease by 25% the 1st mode frequency increase by 12%, and the damage location index represents minus at damaged story.

The Fourier series uses a vibrating wave that possesses an amplitude that is like the one of the sine curve. Therefore, the functions used in the Fourier series do not change due to the value of the frequency and that set a limit to express irregular signals with rapid oscillations or with discontinuities in localized regions. However, the wavelet series analysis(WSA) method supplements these limits of the Fourier series by a linear combination of a suitable number of wavelets. By using the wavelet that is focused on time, it is able to give changes to the range in the cycle. Also, this enables to express a signal more efficiently that has singular configuration and that is flowing. The main objective of this study is to propose a scheme called wavelet series analysis for the application of wavelet theory to one-dimensional problems represented by the second-order elliptic equation and to evaluate theperformance of proposed scheme comparing with the finite element analysis. After a through evaluation of different types of wavelets, the HAT wavelet system is chosen as a wavelet function as well as a scaling function. It can be stated that the WSA method is as efficient as the FEA method in the case of axial bars with distributed loads, but the WSA method is more accurate than the FEA method at the singular points and its computation time is less.

Impact resonance testing was carried out on small and large concrete blocks containing several types of artificial flaws respectively. Quantitative analysis of the observed peak frequencies in the impact resonance tests identifies the possible normal modes of concrete blocks containing flaws. and enables to determine the depth and size of the flaws in concrete blocks. In this study, concrete can be treated as a homogeneous and isotropic material. The flaw size and location at each section of artificial flaw series in small and large concrete blocks, determined through two-dimensional scanning of impact point and real-time fast Fourier transform, are in good agreement with real size location, respectively. Consequently, quantitative analysis method of vibration modes in the impact resonance tests, which can be applied for homogeneous and isotropic material, can be useful for the detection of flaws in any case of small and large concrete blocks in this study.

Vibro-contact of cantilever tip is studied with respect to contact mechanics and an elastic characteristic of nanoscale surface is imaged. The contact resonance frequency is calculated theoretically using the spring-mass and Herzian models, and the variation of resonance frequency of cantilever was analyzed when the cantilever was free and contact. The elasticity imaging was also achieved successfully using phase and amplitude signals obtained from the spheroidized steel specimens by prototype ultrasonic AFM.

오늘날 널리 연구되고 있고 공학자들에게 많은 관심을 끌고있는 압전 세라믹(ceramic)을 이용 하여 자연계에서 일어나는 각종 진동현상을 측정하고 해석하기 위한 센서(sensor)의 설계, 제작은 이미 선진국에서도 보편화된지 오래이다. 특히 압전형 가속도계(piezo type accelerometer)는 진동의 절대 측정에 가장 유용한 센서로 널리 알려져 있다. (1) 아주 넓은 사용 주파수 범위 (2) 넓은 동적범위(dynamic range)에 걸친 뛰어난 선형성(linearity) (3) 측정된 가속도 신호를 전기적으로 적분하여 속도와 변위에 대한 자료 제공 용이 (4) 높은 정확성 (5) 자발 전(self-generating)이므로 외부 전원 공급이 불필요 (6) 수명과 뛰어난 내구성 (7) 작은 크기와 가벼운 무게 등이다. 현재 기계 구조물 진동 측정에 이용되고 있는 스트레인 게이지 형(strain gage-type)의 가속도계는 감도가 좋고 저주파 진동 측정에는 편리한 반면 충격이나 높은 주파수 전동 측정에는 적합하지 않으며 내부 구조가 다소 복잡하다(2). 반면에 압전형 가 속도계는 압전 소자와 관성 질량의 조합 설계로서 저주파 진동 측정에 적합한 고감도의 가속도 계와, 감도는 떨어지나 아주 높은 주파수 범위의 진동까지 측정이 가능한 가속도계를 손쉽게 설계, 제작할 수 있다. 본 글에서는 선진국에 비해 낙후된 국내의 센서 설계, 제작 기술을 고 양시키고자 최근 한국과학기술원에서 시도된 압전형 가속도계의 개발 연구 사례를 중심으로 설계 및 제작시 고려 사항과 보정 문제를 소개하고자 한다.

In this paper, we develop a vibration pattern editor and a vibration pad controller for a sound-driven vibration system, which can generate diverse vibration effects in realtime by analyzing signals from the sound output of PC. It consists of a DSP system to analyze the sound, a wrist-wearable vibration pad, and its controller. For the vibration pattern editor, we define four elements to describe the pattern the locations of vibrating elements, start time, duration, and vibration intensity. The editor provides a GUI through which users can create such patterns fast and easily, and store them for reuse. We also propose a pattern-interpreting controller. It is able to interpret patterns created by the editor and control the pad accordingly. It can avoid the need to change the controller firmware whenever desired patterns change.

The non-preiodic fluctuation of the engine torque appears to be the major source of the torsional vibration of the automotive driveline. The reduction of this torsional vibration hs become a significant problem along with the requirements of higher performance. The shuffle(tip-in, tip-out) is the transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle which appears at the sudden change of an accelerator under traveling. By executing of an experiment and a simulation using a model, it has become possible to obtain the design parameter of a driveline for the torsional vibration. This paper presents an experimental and theoretical research on the transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle which appears at the sudden change of an accelerator under traveling. A dynamic model for the automotive driveline was developed, and all parameters of the mmdel were evaluated with experimental data. The results are as follows: (1) The lower the gea ratio of the transmission is, the more the transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle appears clearly. (2) The transient vibration phenomenon of a vehicle is affected by the design parmeter of the driveline.
