This study introduces a hybrid approach combining numerical results with pre-developed analytical calculations for the sound radiation from the modal vibration of a thick, finite length cylinder with various boundary conditions. Structural vibrations of the cylinder are numerically investigated with the finite element method, and distributions of vibratory displacements on the cylinder surface are idealized as simple mathematical expressions based on the numerical results. Sound radiations from the normal vibration of the cylinder are calculated based on idealized modal displacements using a previously introduced theoretical solution. The results are confirmed with numerical analyses using the boundary element method. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the solutions suggested in this study have good accuracies in calculating the vibro-acoustic properties of a thick, finite cylinder with various boundary conditions. Also, the sound radiation characteristics of many practical components such as brake drums and motor housings are expected to be investigated using the procedure proposed in this study.

The objective of this paper is to get excitation forces of the engine at each of the brackets for the prediction of the vehicle interior noise by the powertrain. A powertrain geometry model is produced by CATIA and its FE model is made by MSC/Patran. A vibration mode analysis and a running mode analysis are experimentally implemented. After getting a satisfied MAC value by doing a correlation about a measured mode analysis value and analyzed value through MSC/Nastran software, all components are assembled through MSC/ADAMS software which is a dynamic analysis tool. We can predict the vibration of brackets which is the last points to occur the force of the engine combustion by analyzing the combustion force produced by engine mechanism.

Vibration intensity has been used to identify the location of a vibration source in a vibrating system. By using vectors representation, the source of the power flow and the vibration energy transmission paths can be revealed. However, due to the large surface area of a plate-like structure, clear transmission paths cannot be achieved using the vectors representation. Experimentally, for a large surface object, the number of measured points will also be increased. This requires a lot of time for measurement. In this study, streamlines representation is used to clearly indicate the power flow transmission paths at all surface plate for FEM and experiment. To clearly improve the vibration intensity transmission paths, streamlines representation from experimental works and FEM computations are compared. Improved transmission paths visualization for both FEM and experiment are shown in comparison to conventional vectors representation. These streamlines visualization is useful to clearly identify vibration source and detail energy transmission paths especially for large surface plate-like structures. Not only that, this visualization does not need many measured point either for experiment or FEM analysis.

Noise radiated from the powertrain is an important factor of the vehicle interior noise. In this paper, Finite Element(FE) model and Boundary Element(BE) models were created. The FE model was updated by doing a correlation between experimental modal analysis(EMA) values and finite element analysis(FEA) values. Main bearing forces were calculated using a running modal data. The forced vibration analysis was simulated using the software MSC/NASTRAN, and the radiated noise was predicted using the software LMS/VIRTUAL.LAB.

In this paper, a novel intensity-based fiber optic vibration sensor using a mass-spring structure, which consists of four serpentine flexure springs and a rectangular aperture within a proof mass, is proposed and its feasibility test is given by the simulation and experiment. An optical collimator is used to broaden the beam which is modulated by the displacement of the rectangular aperture within the proof mass. The proposed fiber optic vibration sensor has been analyzed and designed in terms of the optical and mechanical parts. A mechanical structure has been designed using theoretical analysis, mathematical modeling, and 3D FEM (Finite Element Method) simulation. The relative aperture displacement according to the base vibration is given using FEM simulation, while the output beam power according to the relative displacement is measured by experiment. The simulated sensor sensitivity of $15.731{\mu}W/G$ and detection range of ${\pm}6.087G$ are given. By using reference signal, the output signal with 0.75% relative error shows a good stability. The proposed vibration sensor structure has the advantages of a simple structure, low cost, and multi-point sensing characteristic. It also has the potential to be made by MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) technology.

Using an isogeometric approach, a continuum-based shape design optimization method is developed for steady state power flow problems at high frequencies. In case the isogeometric method is employed to the shape design optimization, the NURBS basis functions used in CAD geometric modeling are directly utilized to embed the exact geometry into the computational framework so that the design parameterization for shape optimization is much easier than that in the finite element method and consequently provides the enhanced smoothness of design perturbations. Thus, exact geometric models can be used in both the response and the shape sensitivity analyses, where normal vector and curvature are continuous over the whole design space so that enhanced shape sensitivity can be expected. Through numerical examples, the developed isogeometric sensitivity is compared with finite difference one to provide excellent agreement. Also, it turns out that the proposed method works very well in the shape optimization problems.

본 연구에서는 압전체의 횡 진동모드를 이용한 압전 초음파 진동자를 설계 분석하였다. 이전의 란쥬반 진동자는 진동을 얻기 위하여, 복수의 원판 또는 사각판 형태의 압전 세라믹을 서로 반대 방향으로 분극하여 마주 보도록 설치한 후 전기적으로 병렬로 연결하고 상단 및 하단에 금속부을 부착하여 전체를 볼트로 조인 복잡한 구조와 큰 출력 파워를 갚는 반면, 본 연구에서는 판상형의 압전소자와 일체형 금속진동체를 이용하여 기계적 출력 파워 조절이 용이한 구조의 압전 진동자를 고안하여, 압전진동자의 횡 진동 모드를 이용함으로써 신뢰성과 정확도가 높고 진동효율이 최대가 되도록 설계하였다. 설계 개발된 압전 진동자는 진동의 크기 조절이 용이하여 일반 진동자 뿐 만 아니라, 외과 및 안과 수술에 있어서 인체조직이나 각막상피의 활성화를 유지한 상태에서 안전하게 절개 및 분리 시술용 진동자로 사용 할 수 있는 이점이있다. 압전 진동자는 유한요소법 시뮬레이션 프로그램 (ATILA 5.2.4)을 이용하여 설계를 하였으며 압전소자의 두께는 각각 0.2 mm, 0.5 mm로 제작하여 시뮬레이션 결과와 제작된 샘플의 특성을 비교하였고, 변위측정은 칼날을 결합 한 상태에서 공진 주파수대역 부근 주파수별로 측정 비교하였다.

The objective of this paper is to get excitation forces of the engine. A powertrain geometry model is produced by CATIA and its FE model is made by MSC/Patran. A vibration mode analysis which makes us know the natural frequency and mode shape and a running mode analysis which measures the mode shape as a relative displacement about one reference point by measuring the acceleration of each bracket to take a place at the running vehicle are experimentally implemented. After getting a satisfied MAC value by doing a correlation about a measured mode analysis value and analyzed value through MSC/Nastran software, all components are assembled through MSC/ADAMS software which is a dynamic analysis tool. We can predict the vibration of brackets which is the last points to occur the force of the engine combustion by analyzing the combustion force produced by engine mechanism.

This study analytically reviewed the behavior of steel plate concrete (SC) walls subjected to forced vibration to investigate the effects of shape and arrangement spacing of studs on the behavior spacing of studs in SC wall were carried out. From the analyses, it was noted that the damping ratio obtained from the time history analyses showed overall high value in Half-power Bandwidth method and the lowest value in Fitted Exponential Curve method. And, in half of the design strength, the damping ratio presented approximately 3.0~4.2% and, in the design strength, it was approximately 4.1~5.2%. When the developed studs were used, the damping ratio was reduced slightly and it did not show consistent results between DS1 and DS2. When the distance between the studs increases more than necessary, it was also confirmed that the natural frequency was reduced and the damping ratio was increased.

This study investigates vibro-acoustic characteristics of a short, thick cylinder containing a slot given a pined-free boundaries. Using the finite element analysis results, structural modes of the asymmetric cylinder (with a slot) are expressed as the linear combinations of modes of the symmetric cylinder made of same material with identical geometry except the slot. Based on synthesized modal vibrations, acoustic modes of the asymmetric cylinder are obtained with two approaches, i.e., Rayleigh integral calculation and modal expansion of the acoustic modes of the symmetric cylinder. Also, acoustic powers, max. sound pressure and directivity pattern are obtained from acoustic modes and verified with the boundary element analyses. Based on these results, the accuracy of proposed approaches in calculating the vibro-acoustic properties of a short, thick, asymmetric cylinder has been confirmed. The procedure can be applied to the similar cylinders with other boundaries or asymmetric properties. Also, attenuation of vibration and/or sound radiation of the cylinder type practical components can be studied using these approaches.
