This study investigates the dynamic performance of a large-span suspended steel space frame-glass composite floor (SSSF-GCF). Both the ambient vibration and the human-induced vibration of the floor were experimentally measured to identify vertical dynamic characteristics and evaluate vibration serviceability of the floor. Although vertical dynamic characteristics of the floor based on the global simplified finite element (FE) model of the structure agree well with those identified via experimental modal analysis, the global simplified FE model significantly underestimates vertical vibration amplitudes of the floor due to the coupled effect between two layers. Accordingly, an equivalent local FE model of the floor system was proposed and updated via adjusting the vertical stiffness of the interstory hanging pillars. It is shown that the equivalent local FE model can well predict both the dynamic characteristics and human-induced vibration response of the floor. Finally, the effect of the damping ratio on the acceleration response of the floor was numerically demonstrated with the verified local FE model.

Series isolation system consists of rubber isolation bearings and composite disk springs, determination method of vertical stiffness and vertical damping of isolation layer is given. Entering the near-fault vertical seismic waves, the affect of isolation layer parameters and earthquake intensity on the isolation effect is studied. Studies have shown that the vertical isolation effect increases with the increase of vertical damping ratio. When the damping ratio reaches a certain value, the isolated effect leveles off. When calculating model is adopted as the hierarchical model, vertical isolation effect has nothing to do with the increases of earthquake intensity.

Dynamic Vibration

A field test on the dynamic performance of a 100% low-floor railway train with five cars was conducted, and a vertical vibration at around 8 Hz was mainly studied for the background of the research. The vibration around 8 Hz, defined as the abnormal vertical vibration, was proved to be due to the pitching motion of the carbodies, which significantly affected the dynamic performance of the vehicle with a maximum increase of 0.309 in the vertical Sperling index. The dynamic vibration absorber theory was applied to reduce the abnormal vibration of carbodies to around 8 Hz by building a vertical mathematic model and a three-dimensional dynamical simulation model. The results of the theoretical analysis show that the stiffness of the articulated device between carbodies is the reason for the pitching motions at around 8 Hz, and the stiffness significantly affects the main frequency of the vertical vibration of carbodies. What’s more, the application of dynamic vibration absorber theory on low-floor railway trains can reduce the vertical abnormal vibration effectively. Yet, reasonable suspension parameters are needed; otherwise, the vibration of carbodies, including the mass ratio, the suspension frequency, the damping ratio, and the suspended location would be aggravated. Optimal suspension parameters of the dynamic vibration absorber system were used in the simulation model, and the result shows a good agreement with the numerical results; the attached dynamic vibration absorber system on carbodies significantly reduces the vibration of carbodies at around 8 Hz. However, it should be noted that the dynamic vibration absorber is only effective at high-speed stage (beyond 40 km/h) where the pitching motion of carbodies is obvious; this conclusion is consistent with the results of the field test.

This study measures the dynamic characteristics of flow control valve by a self-developed square pressure wave generator (SPWG). Comprised of a revolving shaft and a fixed ring, SPWG generates square pressure waves by the differential function of rotation between these two critical components. With the highly sensitive piezoelectric pressure sensor as the reference sensor, tests are conducted concurrently using a flow control valve. Under the same experimental parameters, the dynamic characteristics of flow control valve are evaluated by four kinds of system identification methods, namely ARX (Auto-Regressive with eXogenous input model), ARMAX (Auto-Regressive moving Average with eXogenous input model), OE (Output Error model) and BJ (Box-Jenkins model). The experimental results indicate that the dynamic performance of the tested flow control valve for resonance frequency, resonance peak and damping ratio are 1565.6 Hz, 0.9753 db and 0.4044, respectively.

Based on the random vibration and system identification theory, the ambient vibration testing of two adjacent transmission towers were carried out, dynamic characteristics of the towers were obtained from ambient vibration data. The result shown that the suspended cables not only have mass effects, but have coupled stiffness effects applied to tower on transverse direction and longitudinal direction. At the same, testing value shows that the two adjacent towers have basically the same dynamic characteristics and damping ratio of the two transmission towers less than 0.01. Owing to the influence of conductors, frequency of the insulators is different to the towers at the two directions. It is disadvantage for wind-induced response of transmission line system under ambient loads.

The cladding system is primarily composed of ALC (Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete) external wall cladding panels, gypsum plasterboard interior linings, and window glazing systems. Ten test cases including the bare steel frame and the steel frame with addition of different parts of the precast cladding system are prepared for detailed investigations. The amplitude-dependent dynamic characteristics of the test cases including natural frequencies and damping ratios determined from the tests are presented. The effects of the ALC external wall cladding panels, the gypsum plasterboard interior linings, and the window glazing systems on the stiffness and structural damping of the steel frame are discussed in detail. The effect of the precast cladding systems on the amplitude dependency of the dynamic characteristics and the tendencies of the dynamic parameters with respect to the structural response amplitude are investigated over a wide range. Furthermore, results estimated from the ambient vibration method are compared with those from the free vibration tests to evaluate the feasibility of the ambient vibration method.

Abstract The dynamic behavior of elastic joints strongly affect the dynamic performance of a jointed mechanical system. The dynamic contacts introduced by joint clearances create a system with nonlinear characteristics. Special effort needs to be made to study jointed mechanical systems. This paper presents an integrated joint dynamics system, which can be used to predict the dynamic characteristics of a newly designed structure, or to analyze an existing jointed structure. This joint dynamics system can also be applied as a real time monitoring and diagnosis system when it is connected with a vibration measuring device. The joint dynamics system includes: 1) a theoretical model of jointed structures, in which the joint clearance and joint friction effects are considered; 2) a stochastic simulator which is used to generate vibration data and evaluate system dynamic characteristics; 3) a diagnostic monitoring algorithm for vibration state detection; and 4) a forecasting vibration control scheme. The joint dynamics system is applied to the dynamic analysis of a truss-cell unit structure. The results presented in this paper show that the joint dynamics system is effective.

Research on the safety of powerhouse in a hydropower station is mostly concentrated on the vibration of machinery structure and concrete structure within a single unit. However, few studies have been focused on the vibration transmission among units. Due to the integrity of the powerhouse and the interaction, it is necessary to study the vibration transmission mechanism of powerhouse structure among units. In this paper, field structural vibration tests are conducted in an underground powerhouse of a hydropower station on Yalong River. Additionally, the simplified mechanical models are established to explain the transmission mechanism theoretically. Moreover, a complementary finite element (FE) model is built to replicate the testing conditions for comprehensive analysis. The field tests results show that: (1) the transmission of lateral-river vibration is greater than those of longitude-river vibration and vertical vibration; (2) the vibration transmission of the vibrations that is caused by the low frequency tail fluctuation is basically equal to that of the vibrations caused by rotation of hydraulic generator. The transmission mechanism is demonstrated by the simplified mechanical models and is verified by the FE results. This study can provide guidance for further research on the vibration of underground powerhouse structure.
