The substructure synthesis method is used for making it easy to analyze vibration systems generally in vibration field. In the past, this method has been to be used mainly because of shortage of computer memory and CPU time. But recently this method is used for analyzing complex structure or identifying the characteristics of systems precisely. The purpose of this study is to develop acoustic substructure synthesis method that can be applied to acoustic modal analysis of complex acoustic systems. Acoustic modal analysis method to be introduced here is a method that analyze acoustic natural mode shape of the complex acoustic system by the principle of CMS(component mode synthesis method). This paper describes the acoustic modal analysis of the acoustic finite element model of simple expansion pipe by acoustic substructure synthesis method. The resutls of acoustic modal analysis analyzed by Acoustic substructure synthesis method and the results by FEM(finite element method) shows good agreement.

A method, termed as the substructural sensitivity synthesis method, which utilizes the computational merits of the component mode synthesis technique is proposed to calculate design sensitivity of modal parameters of substructurally combined structures. In this method, the sensitivity analysis is combined with component mode synthesis thchnique. thus the degrees of freedom of a combined structure can be dramatically reduced. Free-interface mode method including the residual attachment modes among the component mode synthesis methods is used to calculate the modal sensitivity of the combined structure. For the design sensitivities of modal properties of structure, the Nelson's method, which is exact solving method is used. It is shown that the modal sensitivities of the entire structure can be obtained by synthesizing the substructural modal data, and the sensitivities of the modal data about the design variables of modifiable substructure. Using the proposed method, the final degrees of freedom of entire structure can be remarkably reduced to calculate the modal parameter sensitivities. With a structure composed of beams and plates, as an example, the sensitivities of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors obtained by this proposed method were compared with the exact solutions in terms of accuracy.

This paper presents systematic study of the experimental application of a free-interfaced component mode synthesis method. In the free-interfaced component mode synthesis method, an error the to truncated higher modes and neglected ineria loadings on a component from the connected component is inherent. Also, it is difficult to directly use experimental modal data in a modal synthesis method which links experimental model to finite-element model because of many inconsistencies between experimentally obtained and analytically obtained modal vectors and missing degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) such as rotational DOFs. In order to solve these problems, three methods, the first one based on attaching auxiliary weights to the connection points, the second one utillizing the normalization of experimental modal vector, and the third one generating smoothed and expanded experimental mode shapes, are studied in this paper. Finally, the study is illustrated for a flat-plate structure by using simulated and measured experimental data.

In the case of performing experimental modal analysis(EMA) and finite- element analysis(EFA) for a whole structure of automotive body that is composed of many complex parts, a trouble may arise from the calculation time, the capacity of memory in computers and the experimental conditions, etc. In this paper, for the vibrational analysis of automotive body model, the efficient modal synthesis method by means of dividing the whole structure into two parts and performing EMA and FEA for each part is studied. In addition, the method based on Lagrange interpolation is proposed for approximating rotational degrees-of-freedom information and linking FEA with EMA. In result, by measuring translational degrees-of-freedom information of only few points and adopting only few modes, the linking method based on Lagrange interpolation turned out to be efficient and accurate in the low frequency range.

A great deal of effort has been invested in upgrading the performance and the efficiency of dynamic analysis of mechanical structures. Using experimental modal analysis(EMA) or finite element analysis(FEA) data of mechanical structures, the performance and efficiency can be effectively evaluated. In order to analyze complex structures such as automobiles and aircrafts, for the sake of computing efficiency, the dynamic substructuring techniques that allow to predict the dynamic behavior of a structure are widely used. Through linking a modal model obtained from EMA and an analytical model obtained from FEA, the best conditioned strucutres can be proposed. In this study, a new algorithm of substructre synthesis method, Multi-FRF synthesis method, is proposed to analyze a structure composed of many substructures.

Modal analysis of cracked cantilever composite beams, made of graphite-fibre reinforced polyamide, is studied. By using the finite element and component mode synthesis methods, a numeric model applicable to investigate the vibration of cracked composite beams is developed. In this new approach, from the crack section, the composite beam separated into two parts coupled by a flexibility matrix taking into account the interaction forces. These forces are derived from the fracture mechanics theory as the inverse of the compliance matrix calculated with the proper stress intensity factors and strain energy release rate expressions. Numerical results are obtained for modal analysis of composite beams with a transverse non-propagating open crack, addressing the effects of the location and depth of the crack, and the volume fraction and orientation of the fibre on the natural frequencies and mode shapes. By means of modal data, the position and dimension of the defect can be found. The results of the study confirmed that presented method is suitable for the vibration analysis of cracked cantilever composite beams. Present technique can be easily extended to composite plates and shells.

Seismic qualification of equipment including piping is performed by using floor response spectra (FRS) or in-structure response spectra (ISRS) as the earthquake input at the base of the equipment. The amplitude of the FRS may be noticeably reduced when obtained from coupling analysis because of interaction between the primary structure and the equipment. This paper introduces a method using a modal synthesis approach to generate the FRS in a coupled primary-secondary system that can avoid numerical instabilities or inaccuracies. The FRS were generated by considering the dynamic interaction that can occur at the interface between the supporting structure and the equipment. This study performed a numerical example analysis using a typical nuclear structure to investigate the coupling effect when generating the FRS. The study results show that the coupling analysis dominantly reduces the FRS and yields rational results. The modal synthesis approach is very practical to implement because it requires information on only a small number of dynamic characteristics of the primary and the secondary systems such as frequencies, modal participation factors, and mode shape ordinates at the locations where the FRS needs to be generated.

Dose response and time dependence of unscheduled DNA synthesis induced by X-rays were measured to determine if any correlation exists between unscheduled DNA synthesis, modal chromosome number, chromosome exchange and mitotic activity in four mammalian cell strains. Unscheduled DNA synthesis occurred in all strains studied. The rate was dose-dependent and strain-specific. Only HeLa $S_3$ showed a staturated dose response after 4, 000 R, other cells were linearly proportional to dose increases. Time dependence of unscheduled DNA synthesis was completed within 2 hours after irradiation regardless of cell strains. Unscheduled DNA synthesis was not directly related to modal chromosome number, total exchange rate and mitotic activity. Mitotic activity and chromosome exchange were both dose-dependent, but the rates of them were inversely related.
