In this paper, we propose a dynamic model of an escalator which can be used to build a design database. The model permits to estimate the forces applied to the structure by calculating three primary types of forces; the torque required to operate the escalator, the reaction forces at part interconnection points, and contact forces between parts. These forces can then be used to calculate dynamic stresses in the structure which is required to estimate the durability of the structure. Result of the computer model are compared with testing results. This simulation model is used to construct a design database. So when we design a new escalator, this design database can be used to make a new simulation model which makes it possible for us to do a Knowledge-Based-Design.

Besides their spiritual significance, minarets are humanity's cultural heritage to the future generations due to their historical and architectural attraction. Currently, many historical masonry minarets are damaged and destroyed due to several reasons such as earthquakes and wind. Therefore, safety of these religiously significant buildings needs to be thoroughly investigated. The utmost care must be taken into account while investigating these structures. Our study investigated earthquake behavior of historical masonry minaret of Haci Mahmut Mosque. Destructive and non-destructive tests were carried out to determine earthquake safety of this structure. Brick-stone masonry material properties of structure were determined by accomplishing ultrasonic wave velocity, Schmidt Hammer, uniaxial compression (UAC) and indirect tension (Brazilian) tests. Determined material properties were used in the finite element analysis of the structure. To validate the numerical analysis, Operational Modal Analysis was applied to the structure and dynamic characteristics of the structure were determined. To this end, accelerometers were placed on the structure and vibrations due to environmental effects were followed. Finite element model of the minaret was updated using dynamic characteristics of the structure and the realistic numerical model of the structure was obtained. This numerical model was solved by using earthquake records of Turkey with time history analysis (THA) and the realistic earthquake behavior of the structure was introduced.

In the fluid-structure interaction analysis, the finite element formulation is performed for the wave equation for dynamic fluid pressure, and the dynamic pressure is defined as a degree of freedom at the fluid nodes. Therefore, to connect the fluid to the structure, it is necessary to connect the degree of freedom of fluid dynamic pressure and the degree of freedom of structure displacement through an interface element derived from the relationship between dynamic pressure and displacement. The previously proposed fluid-structure interface elements use conformal finite element meshes in which the fluid and structure match. However, it is challenging to construct conformal meshes when complex models, such as water purification plants and wastewater treatment facilities, are models. Therefore, to increase modeling convenience, a method is required to model the fluid and structure domains by independent finite element meshes and then connect them. In this study, two fluid-structure interface elements, one based on constraints and the other based on the integration of nonsmooth functions, are proposed in nonconformal finite element meshes for structures and fluids, and their accuracy is verified.

This article provides a dynamic modeling methodology of engines to be accurate with a small number of degrees of freedom for an active vibration control using a top bracing. First. a finite element (FE) model for the engine structure is constructed so that the size of model is as small as possible where the dynamic characteristics of engine are ensured. Second. a technique is studied to obtain the exact mass and stiffness matrices of the FE model. The size of matrices from the FE model is still too large to apply. Finally, a model reduction is. therefore. conducted to make an appropriate dynamic model for designing and simulating a top bracing. In this article, a dynamic model of a large 9 cylinder engine is constructed and reviewed by comparing its natural frequencies and steady state reponses with those of experimental data provided by manufacturer.

Recently, as the demand for high efficiency, multi function machine tools is increasing, domestic machine tool industries are investing in research and development for precision machine tools with high speed. This trend is closely correlated with the design technique which is necessary to make new type machine tool compatible with new production system. To achieve high precision, high speed machine tools with reduced chatter, it is needed to develop dynamically rigid structure. In this paper, dynamic optimization of machine structure is presented. At this procedure of dynamic design, dynamic compliance is minimized using Simple Genetic Algorithm(SGA)

Nonlinear dynamic analysis is generally used in automobile crash analysis and structural optimization considering crashworthiness uses the results of nonlinear dynamic analysis. Automobile crash optimization has high nonlinearity and difficulty in calculating sensitivity. Recently the equivalent static load (ESL) method has been proposed in order to overcome these difficulties. The ESL is the static load set generating the same displacement field as the nonlinear dynamic displacement field at each time step in dynamic analysis. From various researches regarding the ESL method, it has been proved that the ESL method is fairly useful. The ESL method can mathematically optimize a crash optimization problem through nonlinear analysis and well developed static optimization. The ESL is applied to nonlinear dynamic structural optimization of the automobile frontal impact problem. An automobile bumper is optimized. The mass of the structure is minimized while some constraints are satisfied.

Many investigations about the dynamic analysis of the structural system based on the BBA(Building Block Approach) method which predict dynamic characteristics of synthesized structures from each structure. But it is actually sometimes difficult to remove mounts from structures. In this paper, TFSM(The Transfer Function Separation Method) is developed which can predict dynamic characteristics of separated structures from the data of vibrational experiment of the synthesized structures. By combining TFSM with BBA, this paper also proposes the method which can predict dynamic characteristics of mount-modified structure without removing mounts from structures. And the proposed method is verified by the experimental data of plates.

There are a lot of linear dynamic analysis methods for complex structures. Each method has advantages and shortcomings. Method of dynamic analysis for complex structure is selected considering characteristics of dynamic loading, computer facility available number of degree of freedem and accuracy of results. It is a main point of view to get economical results rather then accurate ones for analysis of general complex structures, Mode superposition method and direct integration method are generally used. However, the characteristics of load is not considered in mode superpositon method, the personal computer cannot be used in direct integration methods. To over-come these shortcomings, the component mode method incorporating Ritz algorithm updated is proposed to solve economically dynamic behavior of the structures. The purpose of study is a formulation of algorithm, and computer programing suitable for dynamic analysis of the complex structure in personal computer environment.

In the design stage of high precision manufacturing/inspection FAB facilities, it is necessary to investigate the allowable vibration limits of high precision equipments and to study structural dynamic characteristics of C/R and Sub-structure in order to provide structural vibration criteria to satisfy these allowable limits. The goal of this study is to investigate the dynamic characteristics of PC-Type mock-up structures designed for next generation TFT-LCD FAB through experiments and analysis procedures. Therefore, in order to provide a proper dynamic structural design for high precision manufacturing/inspection work process, these allowable limits must be satisfied.
