Historical structures are the values that are of great importance to that country, showing the roots of a country, and must be passed on from generation to generation. This study attempts to make a contribution to this goal. Seismic damage pattern estimation in a historical brick masonry minaret under different ground motion levels is investigated by using updated finite element models based on ambient vibration data in this study. Imaret Mosque which was built in 1481 AD is selected for an application. Surveying measurement and material tests were conducted to obtain a 3D solid model and mechanical properties of the components of the minaret. Firstly, the initial 3D finite element model of the minaret was analyzed and numerical dynamic characteristics of the minaret were obtained. Then, ambient vibration tests as well as operational modal analysis were implemented in order to obtain the experimental dynamic characteristics of the minaret. The initial finite element model of the minaret was updated by using the experimental dynamic results. Lastly, linear and nonlinear time-history analyses of the updated finite element model of the minaret were carried out using the acceleration records of two different level earthquakes that occurred in Turkey, in Afyon-Dinar (1995) and Çay-Sultandağı (2002). A concrete damage plasticity model is considered in the nonlinear analyses. The conducted analyses indicate that the compressive and tension stress results of the linear analyses are not as realistic as the nonlinear analysis results. According to the nonlinear analysis, the Çay-Sultandağı earthquake would inflict limited damage on the minaret, whereas the Dinar earthquake would damage some parts of the elements in the transition segment of the minaret.

In order to improve dynamic characteristics of air spring with auxiliary chamber, finite element model of air spring R1A390-295 with auxiliary chamber connected with pipe is established,and through analysis to the dynamic characteristics of the model, influence discipline of sitffness characteristics to air spring with different pipe, different auxiliary chamber or different initial pressure are analysed under different excitation. The result show that:minor dynamic sitffness is obtained by using larger pipe or under lower excitation frequency,and as volume of auxiliary chamber increases, the spring dynamic sitffness will decrease accordingly and its amplitude tends to gentle,and influence for decreasing the spring dynamic sitffness is not obvious by continuing to increase the auxiliary chamber volume; the spring dynamic sitffness will increases as initial pressure increases. The validity of Finite element model is verified through dynamic characteristic test .

The System-integrated Modular Advanced ReacTor (SMART) developed by KAERI includes components like a core, steam generators, coolant pumps, and a pressurizer inside the reactor vessel. Though the integrated structure improves the safety of the reactor, it can be excited by an earthquake and pump pulsations. It is important to identify dynamic characteristics of the reactor internals considering fluid-structure interaction caused by inner coolant for preventing damage from the excitations. Thus, the finite element model is constructed to identify dynamic characteristics and natural frequencies and mode shapes are extracted from this finite element model.

This article took the climbing formwork which constructed on the bridge at a height of 100 meters as the prototype, then established the finite element model and conducted modal analysis. The APDL language is used to load the wind load which is simulated by the Matlab programming then calculated the displacement and acceleration responses of the climbing formwork and further. The results show that the bending effect of the climbing formwork is more obvious. This calculation method of calculating the wind load, improve the anti-wind design method of the climbing formwork.

The quality of high speed machining is directly related to dynamic characteristics of spindle-toolholder interface. The paper established normal and tangential interactions of BT spindle-toolholder interface based on finite element contact theory, and analysed free modal in Abaqus/Standard. Then the result was compared with the experimental modal analysis. It shows that the finite element model is effective and could be applied in the future dynamic study of high-speed spindle system.

Dynamic characteristics of a planetary gear set can be greatly affected by a localized fault in the planet bearing. To understand the relationship between the dynamic characteristic of the planetary gear set and the localized fault sizes, a dynamic finite element model for a planetary gear set is developed. A localized fault is assumed to be located in the outer race of the planet bearing. The fault profile is defined as a rectangular one. To formulate the elastic deformations of the components and elastic contact deformations between the mating components, all components of the planetary gear set are considered as elastic bodies in the finite element model. A standard gravity is also considered in the finite element model. A Coulomb frictional model is used to formulate the frictional forces in the planetary gear set. Influences of the rotational velocity, moment, and fault width on the dynamic characteristics of the planetary gear set are discussed. The simulation results are compared with those from the previous method to validate the finite element model. It seems that the presented finite element model can be applied to simulate the dynamic characteristics of a planetary gear set caused by a localized fault in the outer race of the planet bearing.
