There exist many frame structural systems having some attachments reducible to damped spring-mass systems, concentracted masses and spring supports. For free and forced vibration analyses of such a system an analytical method based on the receptance method is presented. A framed structure having attachments is considered as a combined system composed of various Timoshenko beam and bar elements and the attachments. So, the vibration characteristics of the system are calculated by synthesizing receptances and Support Displacement Transfer Ratio (SDTR) of beam and bar elements In spectral and/or closed forms, and receptances of the attachments. In forced vibration analysis, arbitrary excitation forces at a point on the structure and displacement excitations at boundaries are considered. Numerical investigations are carried out for verification of the presented method, and the results show good accuracy and very high computational efficiency.

There exist many frame structural systems which may be regarded as a combined structural system composed of beam/bar elements and attachments reducible to damped spring-mass systems. In this paper, analytical methods based on the receptance for the vibration analysis of such a system are presented. For the free vibration analysis and response calculations to point excitations, receptances of a uniform Timoshenko beam and a bar are derived in closed and spectral forms, and the method to obtain the system receptance by synthesizing the receptances of the elements and other subsystems is presented. The system damping property is also obtainable by sysnthesizing the components' damping properties. For calculations of the system responses to support motion, the Support Displacement Transfer Ratio(SDTR) of a uniform Timoshenko beam and a bar conceptually similar to the receptance is defined, and the method of synthesizing them with other subsystems' receptances is also presented. Such a method is very convenient especially in dynamic reanalysis subject to changes of some design variables.

In this paper, we proposed an efficient algorithm using pulse signal based on group-node-contention in LR-WPAN. The purpose of IEEE 802.15.4 is low speed, low cost and low power consumption. Recently, as applications of LR-WPAN have been extended, there is a strong probability of collision as well and almost collision occurs because of hidden node problem. Moreover, if the collision continuously occurs due to hidden node collision, network performance could be decreased. Nowadays, although several papers focus on the hidden node collision, algorithms waste the channel resource if continuous collisions frequently occur. In this paper, we assume that PAN has been already formed groups, and by using pulse signal, coordinator allocates channel and orders, and then, nodes in the allocated group can compete each other. Hence, contention nodes are reduced significantly, channel wastage caused by collision is decreased, and data transmission rate is improving. Finally, this algorithm can protect the network from disruption caused by frequent collisions. Simulation shows that this algorithm can improve the performance.
