This book was released on 1987 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When attempting to experimentally determine the dynamic properties (natural frequency, damping, and mode shapes) of a structure, one of the most important aspects is to collect and process data that represents the structure as accurately as possible. This means that 'clean' and error free data must be collected. This data must be processed by an appropriate frequency response function model. This data can then be used as input to an number of parameter estimation algorithms and could also be used in modal modeling algorithms. This technical report describes the procedure used to collect this data. Many of the potential errors are discussed as well as techniques to eliminate or reduce the effects of these errors on the quality of the results. Throughout the time frame of this contract, it was determined, that if the procedures described in this technical report are followed, data can be collected, as input to modal parameter estimation algorithms, that will yield accurate dynamic properties of the test structure. With care and attention to theoretical limitations, these dynamics properties can be used to construct a modal model.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document describes briefly the history and current state of development of the Real Time Executive (RTE) Modal Program. The purpose of this document is to provide a reference for the operation of the RTE Modal Program and to provide a reference for future program development. The RTE Modal Program has been developed as a replacement of an earlier program (User Program 9) that was written for the HP-5451-B Fourier system. The original concept of an RTE based program began in 1978 but was not realized in a working form until early in 1981. Based on the operating system of the HP-5451-B, Basic Control System (BCS), continued expansion of that software is prohibitive due to the inflexible programming environment and the memory limitations. To address these problems, the RTE Modal Program utilizes the overhead functions of the File Management Program under (RTE), an operating system available on Hewlett Packard computers, to provide flexibility that does not have to be built into the modal software. The emphasis of the modal software development in the RTE environment is toward supportability rather than efficiency. For future development reasons and based upon the research nature of the Structural Dynamics Research Laboratory, the ability of graduate students to extend and enhance the current software is always the primary consideration. In this way, the modal software can eventually support any type of data acquisition system as well as interface through file structures to related software such as finite element analysis packages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SEM Handbook of Experimental Structural Dynamics stands as a comprehensive overview and reference for its subject, applicable to workers in research, product design and manufacture, and practice. The Handbook is devoted primarily to the areas of structural mechanics served by the Society for Experimental Mechanics IMAC community, such as modal analysis, rotating machinery, structural health monitoring, shock and vibration, sensors and instrumentation, aeroelasticity, ground testing, finite element techniques, model updating, sensitivity analysis, verification and validation, experimental dynamics sub-structuring, quantification of margin and uncertainty, and testing of civil infrastructure. Chapters offer comprehensive, detailed coverage of decades of scientific and technologic advance and all demonstrate an experimental perspective. Several sections specifically discuss the various types of experimental testing and common practices utilized in the automotive, aerospace, and civil structures industries. · History of Experimental Structural Mechanics · DIC Methods - Dynamic Photogrammetry · LDV Methods · Applied Digital Signal Processing · Introduction to Spectral - Basic Measurements · Structural Measurements - FRF · Random and Shock Testing · Rotating System Analysis Methods · Sensors Signal Conditioning Instrumentation · Design of Modal Tests · Experimental Modal Methods · Experimental Modal Parameter Evaluation · Operating Modal Analysis Methods · Analytical Numerical Substructuring · Finite Element Model Correlation · Model Updating · Damping of Materials and Structures · Model Calibration and Validation in Structures · Uncertainty Quantification: UQ, QMU and Statistics · Nonlinear System Analysis Methods (Experimental) · Structural Health Monitoring and Damage Detection · Experimental Substructure Modeling · Modal Modeling · Response (Impedance) Modeling · Nonlinear Normal Mode Analysis Techniques (Analytical) · Modal Modeling with Nonlinear Connection Elements (Analytical) · Acoustics of Structural Systems (VibroAcoustics) · Automotive Structural Testing · Civil Structural Testing · Aerospace Perspective for Modeling and Validation · Sports Equipment Testing · Applied Math for Experimental Structural Mechanics Contributions present important theory behind relevant experimental methods as well as application and technology. Topical authors emphasize and dissect proven methods and offer detail beyond a simple review of the literature. Additionally, chapters cover practical needs of scientists and engineers who are new to the field. In most cases, neither the pertinent theory nor, in particular, the practical issues have been presented formally in current academic textbooks. Each chapter in the Handbook represents a ’must read’ for someone new to the subject or for someone returning to the field after an absence. Reference lists in each chapter consist of the seminal papers in the literature. This Handbook stands in parallel to the SEM Handbook of Experimental Solid Mechanics, where this Handbook focuses on experimental dynamics of structures at a macro-scale often involving multiple components and materials where the SEM Handbook of Experimental Solid Mechanics focuses on experimental mechanics of materials at a nano-scale and/or micro-scale.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents the area of modal parameter estimation in terms of reviewing efforts over the past twenty-five years, in developing several new multiple reference methods, and in attempting to provide a common basis and understanding for all of the modal parameter estimation methods developed to date. The review of modal parameter estimation includes a substantial literature review and the presentation of previous methods, such as the Least Squares Complex Exponential, as special cases of general methods, such as the Polyreference Time Domain method. Several new modal parameter estimation methods are developed and presented using consistent theory and nomenclature. The methods that are presented in this manner include: Polyreference Time Domain, Polyreference Frequency Domain, Multiple Reference Ibrahim Time Domain, Multiple Reference Orthogonal Polynomial, and Multi MAC. These methods, in terms of general characteristics, are also compared to other methods such as the Least Squares Complex Exponential, Ibrahim Time Domain, Eigen system Realization Algorithm, and Direct Parameter Estimation methods. These methods are all similar in that the methods involve the decomposition of impulse response functions (time domain), frequency response functions (frequency domain), or forced response patterns (spatial domain) into characteristic functions in the appropriate domain. These characteristic functions are the single degree of freedom information in the respective domain.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the theoretical basis for the current methods used to predict the system dynamics of a modified structure or of combined structures based upon a previously determined, modal or impedance, model of the structure(s). The methods reviewed were: Modal modeling Technique: Local eigenvalue modification, Coupling of Structures Using Eigenvalue Modification, and Complex Mode Eigenvalue Modification; Sensitivity Analysis; and Impedance Modeling Technique: Building Block Approach, Dynamic Stiffness Method, and Frequency Response Method. The effects of measurement errors, modal parameter estimation error, and truncated modes in the application of modal modeling technique are evaluated. Some of the experimental modal model validation method are also presented. Several methods to normalize the measured complex modes were reviewed including both the time domain and frequency domain techniques. A new component mode synthesis method (Super element Component Dynamic Synthesis) developed by the University of Dayton Research Institute is presented in Section 5 and Appendices. A complete literature search in the area of System Modeling was performed and is listed in the Bibliography.
