Uncertainty analysis of strain modal parameters by Bayesian method using frequency response function

Structural strain modes are able to detect changes in local structural performance, but errors are inevitably intermixed in the measured data. In this paper, strain modal parameters are considered as random variables, and their uncertainty is analyzed by a Bayesian method based on the structural frequency response function （FRF）. The estimates of strain modal parameters with maximal posterior probability are determined. Several independent measurements of the FRF of a four-story reinforced concrete flame structural model were performed in the laboratory. The ability to identify the stiffness change in a concrete column using the strain mode was verified. It is shown that the uncertainty of the natural frequency is very small. Compared with the displacement mode shape, the variations of strain mode shapes at each point are quite different. The damping ratios are more affected by the types of test systems. Except for the case where a high order strain mode does not identify local damage, the first order strain mode can provide an exact indication of the damage location.

STUDY ON FREQUENCY ESTIMATION BASED ON WEIGHTED LEAST SQUARE METHOD WITH THREE FOURIER COEFFICIENTS

In this paper,a sinusoidal signal frequency estimation algorithm is proposed by weighted least square method.Based on the idea of Provencher,three biggest Fourier coefficients in the maximum periodogram are considered,the Fourier coefficients can be written as three equations about the amplitude,phase,and frequency,and the frequency is estimated by solving equations.Because of the error of measurement,weighted least square method is used to solve the frequency equation and get the signal frequency.It is shown that the proposed estimator can approach the Cramer-Rao Bound(CRB)with a low Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR)threshold and has a higher accuracy.

Dynamic design of a nonlinear energy sink with NiTiNOL-steel wire ropes based on nonlinear output frequency response functions

A novel vibration isolation device called the nonlinear energy sink(NES)with NiTiNOL-steel wire ropes(NiTi-ST)is applied to a whole-spacecraft system.The NiTi-ST is used to describe the damping of the NES,which is coupled with the modified Bouc-Wen model of hysteresis.The NES with NiTi-ST vibration reduction principle uses the irreversibility of targeted energy transfer(TET)to concentrate the energy locally on the nonlinear oscillator,and then dissipates it through damping in the NES with NiTi-ST.The generalized vibration transmissibility,obtained by the root mean square treatment of the harmonic response of the nonlinear output frequency response functions(NOFRFs),is first used as the evaluation index to analyze the whole-spacecraft system in the future.An optimization analysis of the impact of system responses is performed using different parameters of NES with NiTi-ST based on the transmissibility of NOFRFs.Finally,the effects of vibration suppression by varying the parameters of NiTi-ST are analyzed from the perspective of energy absorption.The results indicate that NES with NiTi-ST can reduce excessive vibration of the whole-spacecraft system,without changing its natural frequency.Moreover,the NES with NiTi-ST can be directly used in practical engineering applications.

Frequency response range of terahertz pulse coherent detection based on THz-induced time-resolved luminescence quenching

It has been proposed previously that the coherent detection of a terahertz（THz） pulse can be achieved based on the time-resolved luminescence quenching. In this paper, we investigate the frequency response range of this novel detection technology by simulating the motion of carriers in gallium arsenide（GaAs） by the ensemble Monte Carlo method. At room temperature, for a direct-current（DC） voltage of 20 kV/cm applied to the semiconductor（GaAs） and sampling time o140 fs, the luminescence quenching phenomena induced by terahertz pulses with different center frequencies are studied The results show that the quenching efficiency is independent of the THz frequency when the frequency is in a range o0.1 THz–4 THz. However, when the frequency exceeds 4 THz, the efficiency decreases with the increase of frequency Therefore, the frequency response range is 0.1 THz–4 THz. Moreover, when the sampling time is changed to 100 fs the frequency response range is extended to be approximately 0.1 THz–5.6 THz. This study of the frequency-dependen characteristics of the luminescence response to the THz pulse can provide a theoretical basis for the exploration of THz detection technology.

Vibration reliability analysis for aeroengine compressor blade based on support vector machine response surface method

To ameliorate reliability analysis efficiency for aeroengine components, such as compressor blade, support vector machine response surface method(SRSM) is proposed. SRSM integrates the advantages of support vector machine(SVM) and traditional response surface method(RSM), and utilizes experimental samples to construct a suitable response surface function(RSF) to replace the complicated and abstract finite element model. Moreover, the randomness of material parameters, structural dimension and operating condition are considered during extracting data so that the response surface function is more agreeable to the practical model. The results indicate that based on the same experimental data, SRSM has come closer than RSM reliability to approximating Monte Carlo method(MCM); while SRSM(17.296 s) needs far less running time than MCM(10958 s) and RSM(9840 s). Therefore,under the same simulation conditions, SRSM has the largest analysis efficiency, and can be considered a feasible and valid method to analyze structural reliability.

A highly-efficient method for stationary response of multi-degree-of-freedom nonlinear stochastic systems

Analytical and numerical studies of multi-degree-of-freedom(MDOF) nonlinear stochastic or deterministic dynamic systems have long been a technical challenge.This paper presents a highly-efficient method for determining the stationary probability density functions(PDFs) of MDOF nonlinear systems subjected to both additive and multiplicative Gaussian white noises. The proposed method takes advantages of the sufficient conditions of the reduced Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov(FPK) equation when constructing the trial solution. The assumed solution consists of the analytically constructed trial solutions satisfying the sufficient conditions and an exponential polynomial of the state variables, and delivers a high accuracy of the solution because the analytically constructed trial solutions capture the main characteristics of the nonlinear system. We also make use of the concept from the data-science and propose a symbolic integration over a hypercube to replace the numerical integrations in a higher-dimensional space, which has been regarded as the insurmountable difficulty in the classical method of weighted residuals or stochastic averaging for high-dimensional dynamic systems. Three illustrative examples of MDOF nonlinear systems are analyzed in detail. The accuracy of the numerical results is validated by comparison with the Monte Carlo simulation(MCS) or the available exact solution. Furthermore, we also show the substantial gain in the computational efficiency of the proposed method compared with the MCS.

The reliability based optimization （RBO） issue of composite laminates trader fundamental frequency constraint is studied. Considering the tmcertainties of material properties, the frequency constraint reliability of the structure is evaluated by the combination of response surface method （RSM） and finite element method.

基于加权最小二乘的稀疏FIR滤波器设计方法

大规模通信系统的发展对传统滤波器设计提出了更高的要求,稀疏有限脉冲响应(FIR)滤波器具有低计算复杂度与低实现成本的特点,但常规凸松弛近似设计方法会产生额外的逼近误差,稀疏性也不理想,并且求解过程复杂。针对FIR滤波器在设计中由于乘法器个数多而导致实现成本高的问题,该文提出了一种基于加权最小二乘准则的稀疏FIR滤波器设计方法。首先,根据不同范数性质对初始稀疏表示的L0范数进行替换,即对目标函数进行改进,从而在保持稀疏性的基础上,解决非凸函数难以直接求解的问题;然后,将目标问题转化为2个凸子问题差的形式,根据迭代规则构造形式更为简单的子问题,采用交替求解方法求解子问题,以进一步提高求解效率并降低求解复杂度;最后,在确定0系数的位置后,通过求解一个加权最小二乘问题来进一步减小近似误差。仿真实验结果显示:与已有的稀疏滤波器求解方法相比,所提方法能够提高FIR滤波器的系数稀疏性,降低乘法器个数,并且在稀疏性增强的情况下获得较为折中的均方根误差与最大误差,同时计算机求解时间更少,求解效率更高。

Dynamic modelling and chaos control for a thin plate oscillator using Bubnov–Galerkin integral method

The utilization of thin plate systems based on acoustic vibration holds significant importance in micro-nano manipulation and the exploration of nonlinear science. This paper focuses on the analysis of an actual thin plate system driven by acoustic wave signals. By combining the mechanical analysis of thin plate microelements with the Bubnov–Galerkin integral method, the governing equation for the forced vibration of a square thin plate is derived. Notably,the reaction force of the thin plate vibration system is defined as f=α|w|, resembling Hooke’s law. The energy function and energy level curve of the system are also analyzed. Subsequently, the amplitude–frequency response function of the thin plate oscillator is solved using the harmonic balance method. Through numerical simulations, the amplitude–frequency curves are analyzed for different vibration modes under the influence of various parameters. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates the occurrence of conservative chaotic motions in the thin plate oscillator using theoretical and numerical methods. Dynamics maps illustrating the system’s states are presented to reveal the evolution laws of the system. By exploring the effects of force fields and system energy, the underlying mechanism of chaos is interpreted. Additionally, the phenomenon of chaos in the oscillator can be controlled through the method of velocity and displacement states feedback, which holds significance for engineering applications.
