The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of repeated fasting and refeeding on lipid metabolism. Thirty male ICR mice, aged 6 weeks, were fed an AIN-93 control diet during the experimental period. The mice were divided into 5 groups: Non fasting group (ad libitum-fed, NF), fasting for 3 days (F), fasting for 3 days and then refeeding for 4 days repeated once (FRF1), fasting for 3 days and then refeeding for 4 days repeated twice (FRF2), and fasting for 3 days and then refeeding for 4 days repeated three times (FRF3). Rates of body weight gain, epididymal fat weight, and serum TG were significantly decreased in the F, FRF1, FRF2, and FRF3 groups, compared to the NF group. LDL-cholesterol was significantly higher in the FRF3 group than the NF and F groups, but HDL-cholesterol and HDL/TC were significantly lower in the FRF3 group than in the NF and F groups. Serum total carnitine was significantly lower in the FRF1, FRF2, FRF3 groups than the NF and F groups. However, rates of serum and hepatic acyl-carnitine concentration were significantly lower in FRF1, FRF2, and FRF3 than in NF and F. Repeated tasting-refeeding resulted in visible reductions of body weight and fat mass, but it caused ill-effects with lipid and carnitine metabolism in the body.

The frequency response function(FRF) of each substructure is used for the transfer function synthesis method(TFS). The dynamic characteristics of the full system are obtained by synthesizing FRFs of each substructure. The validation of TFS depends on accuracy for FRF of each substructure. Impact hammer testing is widely used to obtain the modal characteristics of structures. However, the FRF obtained from impact hammer testing contains several errors, such as finite record length error and leakage error of which characteristic depends on data acquisition time which we call record length. In this paper, a method to remove these errors is proposed so as to enhance results of TFS. Numerical examples show that the FRF of full structure can be predicted exactly by the method proposed in this paper.

A method how to determine the shock response spectrum from the FRF of the statistical energy analysis( SEA ) is presented here. The system of 3 different Plates connected by bolt joints is selected simulating missile structural sections Joined together. First, the SEA model was rendered by SEA parameters which were determined from experimental SEA method. Then, the mobility power was input to the SEA model and we can verify the validity of the model in the medium to high frequency range checking the reproduction of output average velocity. And, the shock induced shock response spectrum(SRS) was obtained using SEA FRF and arbitrarily chosen experimental FRF. We have compared the thus obtained SRS with actually measured SRS and they were relatively in good agreement. In this paper, we used the measured SEA FRF and therefore we have got the SRS well agreed with actually measured SHS even in the low frequency range. If the SEA FRF of well verified SEA model is used, the good result will come out in SEA effective frequency range which is more important at SRS.

기계시스템의 비선형특성 해석을 위하여 여러가지 방법이 활용되고 있는데, 이들은 Nyquist 선도의 찌그러짐(distortion), Hilbert 변환, 복원력면(restoring force surface), NARMAX, 고차 주파수응답함수(higher order frequency response function), DPE(direct parameter estimation)를 이용한 방법등이다. 이들중 고차 FRF(frequency response function)는 그 개념이 선형시스템의 FRF와 유사하여 비선형시스템의 해석방법으로서 주목을 받고 있으나 아직은 고차 FRF의 특성에 대한 이론적 연구 단계이고, 고차 FRF로부터 비선형특성을 정량적으로 해석하는 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 다항식으로 표시되는 비선형성을 갖는 시스템이 정현파가진을 받을 때 그 응답의 가진주파수 성분은 가진력진폭과 고차 FRF의 무한급수로 나타낼 수 있다. 가진력의 진폭을 변화시켜가며 응답을 측정하고, 고차항을 무시하면 고차 FRF의 값을 근사적으로 구할 수 있다. 고차 FRF는 비선형 시스템의 매개변수의 식으로 나타낼 수 있으므로 이로부터 비선형 매개변수를 추정할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 비선형강성과 비선형감쇠를 갖는 1자유도 시뮬레이션 시스템에 이 매개변수 추정법을 각각 적용함으로써 이 방법의 가능성을 고찰하였다.

구조물의 동특성은 대형구조물을 상시감시 할 수 있는 장점으로 인하여 널리 활용된다. 상시감시를 위해 계측된 랜덤 데이터는 FFT를 통한 구조물의 동적 고유특성을 분석함으로써 이루어진다. 이 과정에서 Input Data와 Response Data사이에서 FFT Analyzer를 통하여 FRF가 측정된다. 특히 랜덤 데이터의 계측은 여건과 환경에 따라 발생하는 Noise로부터 가능한 정확한 FRF를 계측해야만 성공적인 구조물의 고유의 동적특성을 파악하게 된다. 랜덤 데이터에서 발생할 가능성이 높은 입력, 출력 Noise를 동시에 최소화 할 수 있는 새로운 개념의 FRF측정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 이 알고리즘에 의하여 장대형 모형교량으로부터 Modal 실험을 수행하여 계측된 동특성을 FE 해석 결과와 비교 평가하여 유용성을 제시한다.

This paper provides an experimental verification of an FRF-based structural damage identification method (SDIM) developed by the authors for beam structures. The FRF-based SDIM requires the following data : (1) natural frequencies and mode shapes measured at the intact state and (2) the FRF-data measured at the damaged state. Experiments are conducted for the cantilevered beam with one slot and three slots. It is shown that the FRF-based SDIM developed by the authors provide very successful damage identification results which agree well with true damage state.

The characteristics of forced vibration with excited sinusoidal force was introduced. Also, numerical analyses and FRF in frequency domain were performed in detail. In this regard, the responses of displacement, velocity and acceleration were investigated in a forced vibration model. The FRF characteristics in real and imaginary part around natural frequency are also discussed. This response approach of forced vibration in time domain is used for the identification and monitoring of sinusoidal forced vibration. For acquiring a displacement, velocity and acceleration, a numerical technique of Runge-Kutta-Gill method was performed. For the FRF(frequency response function), These responses are used. Also, the FRF can represent the intrinsic characteristics of the forced vibration. These performed results and analysis are successful in each damped condition for the forced vibration model. After numerical analysis of the different mass, damping and stiffness, the forced vibration response characteristics with sinusoidal force was discriminated considering its amplitude and frequency simultaneously.

Finding reasonable flexural modes from the full vehicle modal testing has always been a difficult job to N&V engineers due to FRF inconsistency, nonlinearity, heavy damping and, in many cases, interactions between global body structural modes and massive isolate/non-isolated subsystem modes. This paper provides a brier overview of the mode map validation using single-run FRF measurement with highly sensitive accelerometers fur the full vehicle modal analysis and then it can be used to characterize the vehicle's global/local vibration performances, especially customer perceived "structural feel" typically below 40Hz.
