Noise and vibration triggered by pile driving in a construction site not only give hard time to the surrounding areas but could also cause residents nearby to file civil complaints to the extent of bringing construction to a halt. To deal with this issue, construction engineers have worked strenuously to develop low noise & low vibration pile methods. A noise & vibration-free screw concrete pile method proposed in this study is one of the successful outputs. It penetrates pile underground by rotating and pressing in body of the pile to avert noise and vibration while maximizing bearing capacity. A prototype of noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method was manufactured, which is not seen anywhere in Korea and elsewhere, and have undergone pilot tests twice to determine construction method.

Various the low noise & vibration pile methods were developed and used in many construction sites. Low noise & vibration pile methods must be used essentially from the sites where popular complints would be expected. In this paper, low noise & vibration pile methods and screw pile methods were investigated, noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile method, also, was studied and its constructibility and applicability were analyzed.

In doing the foundation work in the downtown, the popular complaints by means of Noise and vibration have been became heavy burden. Therefore, the noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile method will contribute to the foundation work by removal of the popular complaints and improvement of the constructability. In this paper, the load bearing capacity and displacement characteristics of the noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile were analyzed. The noise & vibration-free screw PHC pile's behavior was better well than the existing PHC pile's one.

Noise and vibration due to pile driving cause residents nearby construction sites to file civil complaints and to the extent of bringing construction to a halt. To deal with this issue, construction engineers have worked strenuously to develop several types of low noise & low vibration pile methods. In this study, a new noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method proposed as a low noise & low vibration pile. It penetrates into the ground by rotating and pressing to avert noise and vibration while maximizing bearing capacity. A prototype of noise and vibration-free precast screw pile method was manufactured, which is not seen anywhere in Korea and elsewhere, and have undergone pilot tests twice to determine construction method. Based on this study, features of the noise & vibration-free screw pile method, production of screw concrete pile prototype, two pilot tests and subsequent construction method were determined.

The so-called boundary node method (or NDIF method) that was developed by the authors has been extended for free vibration analysis of arbitrarily shaped plates with free edges. Since the proposed method requires no interpolation functions. no integration Procedure is needed on boundary edges of the plates and only a small amount of numerical calculation is involved, compared with FEM and BEM. In order to explain tile reason why spurious eigenvalues are generated when the NDIF method is applied to free plates, the NDIF method has been considered for free vibration analysis of both a fixed string and a free beam. Finally, verification examples show that natural frequencies obtained by the present method agree well with those given by an exact method or a numerical method (ANSYS).

The free vibration of partially embedded piles is investigated. The pile model is based on the Bernoulli-Euler beam theory and the soil is idealized as a Winkler model for mathematical simplicity. The governing differential equation for the free vibrations of such members is solved numerically The piles with one typical end constraint (clamped/hinged/free) and the other hinged end with rotational spring are applied in numerical examples. The lowest three natural frequencies are calculated over a range of non-dimensional system parameters: the rotational spring parameter, the relative stiffness and the embedded ratio.

This paper is concerned with the free vibration analysis of an annular plate with boundary conditions of simply supported-free, clamped-free and free-free, respectively. Exact solutions for the natural frequency and mode of an annular plate can be obtained by solving the differential equation but other methods such as the Rayleigh-Ritz method and the finite element method can be also used. In this research, we applied the Independent Coordinate Coupling Method(ICCM) to the annular plate and prove that the ICCM can accurately predict the natural frequency and mode shape of the annular plate. The numerical results show that the ICCM can be used effectively for the free vibration problem of plate with a hole compared to the Rayleigh-Ritz method and the finite element method.

This paper presents the application of the technique of differential transformation of free vibration of membrane. Numerical calculations are carried out and compared with previously published results. The results obtained by the present method agree very well with those reported in the previous works. The present analysis shows the usefulness and validity of differential transformation in solving a solid and annular circular membranes problem of the responses of the free vibration.

This paper deals with the application of numerical differentiation in free vibration analysis. In the free vibration analysis, the derivative values of the given function are certainly used in calculation of structural parameters. For deriving the derivative values, both the time and labor are needed when the structures consist of non-linear geometries such as arches or curved beams. From this viewpoint, the numerical differentiation scheme is applied into the free vibration analysis. The numerical results obtained from the numerical differentiations are agreed very well with those obtained from the exact derivatives by analytical method. It is expected that the numerical differentiations can be utilized practically in the free vibration analysis.

The time-dependent frequency and energy of free vibration of the spagetti problem, that is the axially moving continuum with time-varying length, are investigated. Exact expressions for the natural frequency and time-varying vibration energy are derived by dealing with traveling waves. The vibration period increases with increasing length, but the free vibration energy decreases. When the string undergoes retraction, the vibration energy increases with time. The free response of the time-varying string is represented by superposing two traveling waves.
