In this study, structural design of exhaust gas sensor of automobile was performed. In order to evaluate the structural design of the measurement sensor, the structural analysis was performed by the finite element method. The vibration and thermal stress analysis was carried out at the high temperature condition. Finally, the structural test of sensor system was performed, and used for comparison with the analyzed model. Through the structural analysis and test, it is confirmed that the designed measurement sensor structure is acceptable.

This study outlines the analysis of toggle system and the vibration control performance when the toggle-rotational inertia damper system was applied to a structure. Numerical analysis shows that the relative displacement of the structure can be amplified by amplification mechanism of the toggle system and the capacity of the damper can be reduced without the loss of vibration control performance. It is also observed that vibration control effects is caused by the increase of equivalent mass due to the rotational inertia of damper.

Differential Quadrature Method (DQM) is a powerful method which can be used to solve numerical problems in the analysis of structural and dynamical systems. In this study the governing equation which represents the free vibration of coupled shear walls is solved using the DQM method. A one-dimensional model has been used in this study. At the end of study various examples are presented to verify the accuracy of the method.

The main noise source of the rotary compressor for air conditioner was analyzed by using the measurement of sound intensity, modal analysis and operational deflection shape(ODS) analysis. In this study, the key noise source of rotary compressor was an accumulator, and noise was sharply increased due to the accumulator's resonance which has a big contribution to the noise. To reduce the excessive noise generated from accumulator, structural modification through ODS analysis were applied. Its validation was conducted by the measurement of noise and vibration on the accumulator's surface. The total noise was significantly reduced by 4.2dB(A).

Recently, the field of the engineering has been studied about optimum design continuously. Verified data by comparison with simulation and dynamic characteristic analysis enables the design of a machine tool to be modified easily and effectively concerning to the mode shape of the vibration. Especially, BC-500 Line Center has got some problems causing vibration which mainly come from Column and ATC part. So it is necessary to solve those problems by the two kinds of method such as changing structural design and reinforcing with ribs. In this paper, column and ATC part of BC-500 Line center are modified by an optimum design by the analysing method of FEM to avoid vibration. As a result, a more stable machine tool was designed by this simulation as optimum condition.

Wired monitoring systems have been used for damage detection and dynamic analysis of large structures(bridges, dams, plants, etc.). However, the real-world applications still remain limited, mainly due to time and cost issues inherent to wired systems. In recent years, an increasing number of researchers have adopted WSN(wireless sensor network) technologies to the field of SHM(structural health monitoring). Accurate time synchronization is most critical for the wireless approach to be feasible for SHM purpose, along with sufficient wireless bandwidth and highly precise measuring resolution. To satisfy technical criteria stated above, a wireless vibration monitoring system that uses high-precision MEMS(micro-electro-mechanical system) sensors and A/D convertor is discussed in detail. It was found experimentally that the level of time synchronization fell within $200\;{\mu}sec$.

Wind induced vibration of a stay cable with a nonlinear friction damper is investigated. Stay cables are likely to vibrate under several wind-related environments, and cable dampers can be used to suppress the excessive vibrations of stay cables. Conventional design of cable dampers are based on the equivalent modal damping achieved by the cable damper. However, the equivalent modal damping achieved by nonlinear dampers are depend on the vibration characteristics like the amplitude of the vibration. In this paper, not only the achieved equivalent modal damping, but also the vibration levels under gust wind are analyzed through the time domain buffeting analysis. Numerical simulation results show the efficacy of a nonlinear friction damper for suppressing the excessive vibration of a stay cable.

Recently, demands on light weight, high strength, and low noise or vibration have led to the design of complicated structural systems. Although finite elements [1], mode synthesis [2], and statistical energy analysis [3] can be used to compute the dynamic response of such systems, the structural complexity has made the interpretation of the results of such analysis difficult. Many researchers in dynamic analysis have sought to further develop existing theories or develop alternate methods to obtain greater insight in the behavior of large massive primary systems (P systems) with connected light secondary systems (S systems). Some recent research includes work by Sackman and Kelly [4], Sackman et al.[5], Der Kiureghian et al.[6], and Igusa and Der Kiureghian [7-9] who have combined mode synthesis concepts, matrix algebraic theory, and perturbation methods for characterizing weakly-coupled structural systems. A major limitation of these works are that they are limited to lumped mass S systems. In this paper, the general ideas in the Refs.[4-9] are used to study continuous S systems and the method to reduce the complexity, studied in the works by Igusa, Achenbach, and Min [10,11], is developed into the frequency window method.

For large structural eigen-analysis, the whole structure is divided into some partitioned structures and through synthesis of partitioned structural model the eigen-data of structure can be obtained. In that case, eigenvalue problem consists of semidefinite mass matrix form because of displacement constraint condition. In this work the eigenvalue problem is considered by means of several method, determinant search and null space reduction method.

In this paper Power Flow Finite Element Method(PFFEM) has been implemented to analyze the vibration of a plate in mid and high frequency ranges. In order to solve the vibration energy governing equation in Power Flow Analysis(PFA), The Finite Element Method(FEM) was used as a numerical tool. It allowed one to predict the distribution of displacement and Intensity in the plate vibrating at mid and high frequencies. The results were compared with the analytical solutions and the approximate FEM solutions. The comparison showed that PFFEM can be an effective tool to analyze the structural vibration in mid and high frequency ranges.
