The influence of hold-down spring (HDS) on the vibration characteristics of core barrel is studied in this paper. First, the vibration characteristics experiment of core barrel was carried out with four type of different hold-down spring. These hold-down springs represent the same hold-down force under different spring stiffness and different hold-down force under the same spring stiffness. And then a new finite element method for researching the influence of hold-down spring on the vibration characteristics of core barrel was presented. This new method could consider the influence of the hold-down force and the spring stiffness at the same time. The results suggest that, the hold-down force and friction have greater influence on the vibration characteristics of core barrel than the spring stiffness, and the influence is nonlinear. The influence of the boundary condition on beam mode is greater than that on shell mode for core barrel.

The photoelastic determination of S.I.F. in Fracture mechanics has been regarded as one of the most effective and practical experimental methods in which stresses are read directly, except a few shortcomings involved in the process of experiment; the difficulties of making a sharp crack tip similar to the practical one and nearly impossibilities of carving an arbitrarily shaped crack on the test plate, etc. To eliminate flaws mentioned above, recently, Kitagawa and Watanabe of Tokyo Univ.developed a new method named"Teflon Insert Method". which has improved experimental accuracy to a considerable extent byt remaining still room for further improvement, that is, the elimination of bonding boundary scars which render photoelastic fringes obscure. In this paper, a newly exploited"Teflon Molding Method" was attempted for the completion of teflon-epoxy experimental method. The experimental results obtained by this method are compared with existent theoretical and experimental values to evaluate its accuracy. As result, 1-6% of margin of errors were appeared in a series of photoelastic experiments which defied any other conventional method in terms of experimental accuracy.perimental accuracy.

This paper presents the analysis of a time reversal process for $A_0$ Lamb wave mode($A_0$ mode) on a rectangular plate. The dispersion characteristic equation of the $A_0$ mode is approximated using the Timoshenko beam theory. A virtual sensor array model is developed to consider the effects of reflections occurring on the plate boundary on the time reversal process. The time reversal process is formulated in the frequency domain using the virtual sensor array model. The reconstructed signal is obtained in the time domain through an inverse fast Fourier transform. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated through the comparison to the numerical simulation results computed by the finite element analysis.

A complete current loop decoupling control strategy based on a sliding mode observer (SMO) is proposed to eliminate the influence of current dynamic coupling and back electromotive force (EMF) in the vector control of permanent magnet synchronous motors. With this strategy, current dynamic decoupling and back EMF compensation can be simultaneously achieved. Unlike conventional methods, the proposed strategy can avoid the disturbances caused by the parametric variations of motor systems and maintain the advantages of proportional integral (PI) controllers, which are robust and easy to operate. An improved SMO, which uses a special PI regulator other than a linear saturation function as the equivalent control law in the boundary layer of a sliding surface, is proposed to eliminate the estimated errors caused by the quasi-sliding mode and obtain a satisfactory decoupling performance. The stability and parameter robustness of the proposed strategy are also analyzed. Physical experimental results are presented to verify the validity of the method.

This paper presents an overview on flutter boundary prediction in tests which is principally based on a system stability measure, named Jury's stability criterion, defined in the discrete-time domain, accompanied with the use of autoregressive moving-average (AR-MA) representation of a sampled sequence of wing responses excited by continuous air turbulences. Stability parameters applicable to two-, three- and multi-mode systems, that is, the flutter margin for discrete-time systems derived from Jury's criterion are also described. Actual applications of these measures to flutter tests performed in subsonic, transonic and supersonic wind tunnels, not only stationary flutter tests but also a nonstationary one in which the dynamic pressure increased in a fixed rate, are presented. An extension of the concept of nonstationary process approach to an analysis of flutter prediction of a morphing wing for which the instability takes place during the process of structural morphing will also be mentioned. Another extension of analytical approach to a multi-mode aeroelastic system is presented, too. Comparisons between the prediction based on the digital techniques mentioned above and the traditional damping method are given. A future possible application of the system stability approach to flight test will be finally discussed.

In this study free vibration analysis of a cracked Goland composite wing is investigated. The wing is modelled as a cantilevered beam based on Euler- Bernoulli equations. Also, composite material is modelled based on lamina fiber-reinforced. Edge crack is modelled by additional boundary conditions and local flexibility matrix in crack location, Castigliano's theorem and energy release rate formulation. Governing differential equations are extracted by Hamilton's principle. Using the separation of variables method, general solution in the normalized form for bending and torsion deflection is achieved then expressions for the cross-sectional rotation, the bending moment, the shear force and the torsional moment for the cantilevered beam are obtained. The cracked beam is modelled by separation of beam into two interconnected intact beams. Free vibration analysis of the beam is performed by applying boundary conditions at the fixed end, the free end, continuity conditions in the crack location of the beam and dynamic stiffness matrix determinant. Also, the effects of various parameters such as length and location of crack and fiber angle on natural frequencies and mode shapes are studied. Modal analysis results illustrate that natural frequencies and mode shapes are affected by depth and location of edge crack and coupling parameter.

This paper investigates the free vibrations of cylindrical shells made of time-dependent materials for different viscoelastic models under various boundary conditions. During the extraction of equations, the displacement field is estimated through the first-order shear deformation theory taking into account the transverse normal strain effect. The constitutive equations follow Hooke's Law, and the kinematic relations are linear. The assumption of axisymmetric is included in the problem. The governing equations of thick viscoelastic cylindrical shell are determined for Maxwell, Kelvin-Voigt and the first and second types of Zener's models based on Hamilton's principle. The motion equations involve four coupled partial differential equations and an analytical method based on the elementary theory of differential equations is used for its solution. Relying on the results, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of viscoelastic shells are identified. Conducting a parametric study, we examine the effects of geometric and mechanical properties and boundary conditions, as well as the effect of transverse normal strain on natural frequencies. The results in this paper are compared against the results obtained from the finite elements analysis. The results suggest that solutions achieved from the two methods are ideally consistent in a special range.

The blower which is installed in a FCEV(fuel cell electric vehicle) may cause noise due to misalignment and unbalance of mechanical components that rotate at high speed. One of the key points in efforts to minimize the noise radiation from a blower is the knowledge of the main radiating component and the relation between the surface vibration of a blower and the sound pressure. In this research, the blower model is developed based on FEM(finite element method). FE(finite element) model is reliable by correlation of frequencies and MAC(modal assurance criterion) values between EMA(experimental modal analysis) and FEA(finite element analysis). This model is applied to predict the vibration of a blower by using inverse force identification method and predict the radiating noise by using BEM(boundary element method). Comparing the frequencies of resonance and those mode shapes between EMA and FEA, a structural modification of the FE model is evaluated for reducing the parameters of the blower noise.

This paper discusses a harmonic response estimation method on the L$\acute{e}$vy plate with two opposite edges simply supported and the other two edges having free boundary conditions. Since the equation of motion of the plate is not self-adjoint, the modes are not orthogonal to each other on the domain. Noting that the L$\acute{e}$vy plate can be expressed using one term sinusoidal function that is orthogonal to other sinusoidal functions, this paper suggested the calculation method that is equivalent to finding a least square error minimization solution of the finite number of algebraic equations. Example problems subjected to a distributed area loading and a distributed line loading are defined and their solutions are provided. The solutions are compared to those of the commercial code, ANSYS. According to the verification results, it is expected that the suggested method will be useful to predict the forced response on the L$\acute{e}$vy plate with the distributed area or line loading conditions.
