This paper explores the possibility of using a combination of the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and the Hilbert transform (HT), termed the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) method, to identify the modal damping ratios of the structure with closely spaced modal frequencies. The principle of the HHT method and the procedure of using the HHT method for modal damping ratio identification are briefly introduced first. The dynamic response of a two-degrees-of-freedom (2DOF) system under an impact load is then computed for a wide range of dynamic properties from well-separated modal frequencies to very closely spaced modal frequencies. The natural frequencies and modal damping ratios identified by the HHT method are compared with the theoretical values and those identified using the fast Fourier transform (FFT) method. The results show that the HHT method is superior to the FFT method in the identification of modal damping ratios of the structure with closely spaced modes of vibration. Finally, a 36-storey shear building with a 4-storey light appendage, having closely spaced modal frequencies and subjected to an ambient ground motion, is analyzed. The modal damping ratios identified by the HHT method in conjunction with the random decrement technique (RDT) are much better than those obtained by the FFT method. The HHT method performing in the frequency-time domain seems to be a promising tool for system identification of civil engineering structures.

본 논문에서는 시간-주파수 동시 해석 기법 중 하나인 수정된 HHT 기법을 이용하여 회전하는 프로펠러의 날개에서 산란되는 마이크로 도플러 신호를 분석하였다. 프로펠러의 날개 모서리에 산란되는 산란파는 등가전류법(ECM)을 이용하여 구했다. 산란파의 시간 데이터를 얻은 후, 수정된 HHT 기법을 마이크로 도플러 신호의 해석에 적용하였다. 해석 결과는 실제 날개의 동특성에 잘 부합하였으며, 회전체로부터 발생하는 마이크로 도플러의 정편파적인 특성을 보였다. 수정된 HHT를 이용한 시간-주파수 동시 해석은 작은 레이더 단면적 값을 갖는 소형 비행체를 식별하기 위한 명확한 특성을 제공하였다.

Empirical Mode Decomposition(EMD)을 통한 Hilbert Huang Transform(HHT)은 시간-주파수 영역분석 방법 중 하나로 기존의 다른 분석 방법에 비해 비선형, 비정상 신호를 해석 가능하다는 등 여러가지 이점이 있다. 그러나 인접한 주파수를 분별하기 힘들고 잡음에 취약하다는 결점이 있다고 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 HHT와 정상신호 분석에 효과적인 Short-Time Fourier Transform(STFT)을 비교하여 각 방법의 장 단점을 분석하고 Rijke 튜브 실험에서 얻은 열음향학적 불안정 데이터에 적용하여 잡음에 취약한 점을 보완한 Improved HHT와 비교한다. 그 결과, EMD를 이용한 Original HHT보다 EEMD를 이용한 Improved HHT가 잡음의 영향을 적게 받아 보다 정확한 신호분석이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Rotating machinery has two typical faults with clearance, one is partial rub and the other is looseness. Due to these faults, non-linear and non-stationary signals are occurred. Therefore, time-frequency analysis is necessary for exact fault diagnosis of rotating machinery. In this paper newly developed time-frequency analysis method, HHT(Hilbert-Huang Transform) is applied to fault diagnosis and compared with other method of FFT, SFFT and CWT. The results show that HHT can represent better resolution than any other method. Consequently, the faults of rotating machinery are diagnosed efficiently by using HHT.

A recently developed Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) technique is applied to the detection of the damage locations of bridge structures. The HHT may be used to identify the locations of damages which exhibit nonlinear and non-stationary behavior, since the instantaneous frequency characteristics of the measured signal can be analyzed by the HHT. Numerical simulations were conducted on two bridge systems with damages using controlled excitations with sweeping frequency. Nonlinear plastic model using a gap element is employed to model the behavior of the cracked elements in the numerical simulations. The results indicate that the HHT method can reasonably identify the damage locations based on a limited number of acceleration sensors. Experimental study has been 실so carried out on a steel frame to confirm the applicability of the HHT to detect a structural connection with loosened bolts.

음향방출(Acoustic Emission, AE) 시스템은 최근 조기 결함 검출 시스템 개발을 위해 적용되고 있으며, 그에 따르는 신호처리 기법에 대한 문제를 해결하기 위해 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 신호처리 기법 중 포락처리(Envelope analysis)가 베어링 결함 분석에 사용되고, Wavelet Transform은 기어 등의 결함 분석에 용이한 것으로 알려져 있다. 하지만 여전히 AE 신호를 위한 신호처리 기법은 불확실하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 AE 시스템을 적용한 조기 결함 검출 시스템 개발을 위한 사전 연구로, AE 신호를 분석하기 위한 신호처리 기법으로 Hilbert Transform(HT)과 Hilbert-Huang Transform(HHT)에 대해 비교 분석한다. AE 신호는 피로시험을 통해 취득되었으며, 취득된 AE 신호를 두 신호처리 기법을 적용하여 주파수 및 시간 신호에 대해 분석하였다. HT에 비해 HHT가 시간-주파수 영역에 대해 결과를 나타내기 때문에 좀 더 명확한 특징을 보이는 데에 반해 신호처리 시간 및 필터링에 대한 단점을 보이고 있음을 확인하였다.

Objectives The purpose of this thesis is to compare and analyze outcomes of case studies and controlled studies about Hwangryunhaedok-tang (HHT) pharmacopuncture in clinical studies. Based on these studies reporting clinical effects by using HHT pharmacopuncture, we object to deduct the comparative review in applying clinical disorders limitedly. And conclusionally, by using this comparative review, we aim to make the fine evidence in treating clinical specific diseases. Methods We searched 106 studies about HHT pharmacopuncture from 6 Korean web databases by using in Korean word 'Hwangryunhaedok-tang pharmacopuncture'. This search had been progressed throughout 1 month (January, 2019). There was 106 thesis and we excluded studies that are not related to HHT pharmacopuncture, experimental research, not the case report or randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, not using HHT pharmacopuncture, not using only one pharmacopuncture, and not using HHT pharmacopuncture for major treating method. As a result, 39 thesis are selected as a population. Results We analyzed 34 case reports and 5 controlled studies. As the final outcome, HHT pharmacopuncture was used in musculoskeletal diseases, dermatopathy, and 32 specific diseases. Conclusions After analyzing 39 studies, effective symptom changes clinically and statistically by using HHT pharmacopuncture herbal acupuncture were identified. However, these thesis designs were reported deficiently in many parts such as not excluding other confounding variables. After modifying defects of thesis design and conduct study, it can play a role as the evidence using HHT pharmacopuncture more precisely.

Recently, the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) has gained considerable attention as a novel technique of signal processing, which shows promise for the system identification and damage detection of structures. This study investigates the effectiveness and accuracy of the HHT method for the system identification and damage detection of structures through a series of experiments. A multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structural model has been constructed with modular members, and the columns of the model can be replaced or removed to simulate damages at different locations with different severities. The measured response data of the structure due to an impulse loading is first decomposed into modal responses using the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) approach with a band-pass filter technique. Then, the Hilbert transform is subsequently applied to each modal response to obtain the instantaneous amplitude and phase angle time histories. A linear least-square fit procedure is used to identify the natural frequencies and damping ratios from the instantaneous amplitude and phase angle for each modal response. When the responses at all degrees of freedom are measured, the mode shape and the physical mass, damping and stiffness matrices of the structure can be determined. Based on a comparison of the stiffness of each story unit prior to and after the damage, the damage locations and severities can be identified. Experimental results demonstrate that the HHT method yields quite accurate results for engineering applications, providing a promising tool for structural health monitoring.

본 연구에서는 최근에 개발된 Hilbert-Huang 변환(HHT) 기법의 교각시스템에서 손상위치추정을 위한 적용성을 분석하였다. HHT기법으로 시계열의 순간주파수를 분석할 수 있음을 이용하여, 손상에 기인한 비선형 거동이 발생하는 때에 순간주파수의 변화를 분석함으로서, 손상부재와 위치를 추정하는 방법이다. 손상을 입은 교각 시스템에 대하여 수치모의실험을 수행하였는데, 이 때에 주파수가 점차로 증가하는 입력하중을 사용하였다. 연구결과로부터, HHT기법이 한정된 갯수의 가속도센서를 이용하여 계측오차가 포함된 조건하에서도 교각에 발생한 손상위치를 적절히 색출할 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.

An effective purification method was developed for producing Homoharringtonine (HHT), to guarantee high purity and yield from Cephalotaxus koreana. This process was a simple and efficient procedure, for the isolation and purification of HHT form the biomass of Cephalotaxus koreana, consisting of extract, adsorbent treatment, precipitation and followed by a chromatography. The extraction, adsorbent treatment and precipitation in pre-purification process allows for rapid and efficient separation of HHT from many compound and dramatically increases the yield and purity of crude HHT for HPLC purification steps compared to alternative processes. This purification processes serves to minimize solvent usage, size, and complexity of the operations for HHT purification.
