It is impractical to install sensors on every floor of a tall building to measure the full state vector because of the large number of degrees of freedom. This makes it necessary to introduce reduced order control. A kind of system reduction scheme (dynamic condensation method) is proposed in this paper. This method is iterative and Guyan condensation is looked upon as an initial approximation of the iteration. Since the reduced order system is updated repeatedly until a desired one is obtained, the accuracy of the reduced order system resulting from the proposed method is much higher than that obtained from the Guyan condensation method. An eigenvalue shilling technique is applied to accelerate the convergence of Iteration. Two schemes to establish the reduced order system by using the proposed method are also presented and discussed in this paper. The results for a tail building with active tuned mass damper show that the proposed method is efficient for the reduced order modelling and the accuracy is very close to exact only after two iterations.

A unified modal-nodal expansion of tile angular distribution of neutron flux in one spatial dimension is considered, following the proposal of Harms. Several standard nodal and/or modal methods of analysis are shown to be specializations of this technique. The modal-nodal moment from of the mono-energetic transport equation with isotropic sources and scattering is derived and the infinite medium eigenvalue problem solved. The technique is shown to yield results which approximate the exact value of the inverse diffusion length in non-multiplying media more accurately than standard methods of equal or somewhat greater computational complexity.

Matched field processing technique is performed by considering complex underwater environments. Specially, the performance of minimum variance processor is greatly degraded by eigenvalue problem. In this paper, we propose the minimum variance matched field processor using shaping matrix. This shaping matrix makes that the input covariance matrix is invertible and enhances the desired acoustic source component. It was proved effectively range/depth localization of the proposed method with simulated data and vertical array data collected by NATO SACLANT Center north of the island of Elba off the Italian west coast.

This paper is concerned with the determination of exact buckling loads and vibration frequencies of variable thickness isotropic plates using well known finite difference technique. The plates are subjected to uni, biaxial compression and shear loadings and various combinations of boundary conditions are considered. The buckling load is found out as the in plane load that makes the determinant of the stiffness matrix equal to zero and the natural frequencies are found out by carrying out eigenvalue analysis of stiffness and mass matrices. New and exact results are given for many cases and the results are in close agreement with the published results. In this paper, like finite element method, finite difference method is applied in a very simple manner and the application of boundary conditions is also automatic.

A new modeling and analysis technique for one-dimensional distributed parameter systems is presented. First. discretized equations of motion in Laplace domain are derived by applying discretization methods for partial differential equations of a one-dimensional structure with respect to spatial coordinate. Secondly. the z and inverse z transformations are applied to the discretized equations of motion for obtaining a dynamic matrix for a uniform element. Four different discretization methods are tested with an example. Finally, taking infinite on the number of step for a uniform element leads to an exact dynamic matrix for the uniform element. A generalized modal analysis procedure for eigenvalue analysis and modal expansion is also presented. The resulting element dynamic matrix is tested with a numerical example. Another application example is provided to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method.

The present work mainly reports a significant development of a novel efficient meshfree method for vibration and buckling analysis of orthotropic plates. The plate theory with orthotropic materials is followed the Kirchhoff''s assumption in which the only deflection is field variable and approximated by the moving Kriging interpolation approach, a new technique used for constructing the shape functions. The moving Kriging technique holds the Kronecker delta property, thus it makes the method efficiently in imposing the essential boundary conditions and no special techniques are required. Assessment of numerical results is to accurately illustrate the applicability and the effectiveness of the proposed method in the class of eigenvalue problems.

Eigenvalue distributions for a periodic metal-insulator-metal waveguide, classified into the point spectrum and the discretized continuous spectrum (DCS), are investigated as functions of frequencies, gap widths, and periods. Muller's method is suggested for solving exact eigenvalues, and we propose the scheme for finding proper initial values in the Muller's method by considering only ${\Re}e({\varepsilon}_r)$ in the dispersion equation. We then find that anti-crossing behavior, repulsive effect between the point spectrum and the DCS, becomes stronger when the real parts of the roots in the point spectrum have smaller values. Finally, we examine the transmittances of a single subwavelength slit for real metals using the mode matching technique. The transmittances in real metals similarly follow those of the perfect electric conductor (PEC) at low frequencies, while the patterns at higher frequencies begin to differ from the PEC.

The purpose of this paper is to study the effects of magnetic field and gravitational field on fiber-reinforced thermoelastic medium with memory-dependent derivative. Three-phase-lag model of thermoelasticity (3PHL) is used to study the plane waves in a fiber-reinforced magneto-thermoelastic material with memory-dependent derivative. A gravitating magneto-thermoelastic two-dimensional substrate is influenced by both thermal shock and mechanical loads at the free surface. Analytical expressions of the considered variables are obtained by using Laplace-Fourier transforms technique with the eigenvalue approach technique. A numerical example is considered to illustrate graphically the effects of the magnetic field, gravitational field and two types of mechanical loads(continuous load and impact load).

Component Mode Synthesis (CMS) is a dynamic substructuring technique to get an approximate eigensolutions of large degree-of-freedom structures divisible into several components. But, In practice. most of large structures are modeled by different teams of engineers. and their respective finite element models often require different mesh resolutions. As a result, the finite element substructure models can be non-conforming and/or incompatible. In this work, A hybrid version of component mode synthesis using a localized lagrange multiplier to treat the non-conforming mesh problem was derived. Evolution Strategies (ESs) is a stochastic numerical optimization technique and has shown a robust performance for solving deterministic problems. An ESs conducts its search by processing a population of solutions for an optimization problem based on principles from natural evolution. An optimization example for raising the first natural frequency of a plate structure using beam stiffeners was presented using hybrid component mode synthesis and robust evolution strategies (RES) optimization technique. In the example. the design variables are the positions and lengths of beam stiffeners.
