Abstract In conventional vibration testing, measurement of frequency response function (FRF) has been limited to translational degrees of freedom (DOF). Rotational DOFs have not been treated in experimental analysis. However, the rotational DOF is indispensable in further analysis, such as substructure synthesis, prediction of structural dynamics modification, etc. Hence, measurement of FRFs on rotational DOF is essential for expanding applicability of experimental modal analysis. This paper proposes a new method for FRF estimation on rotational DOF of structures. The following is the estimation procedure: A rigid block is fixed on the measurement point of the structure; the block is excited by conventional impact hammer; the inner force and the response of the connection point including rotational DOFs are estimated; and lastly, the FRF including rotational DOF at the connection point of the structure is obtained. The feasibility of the method is investigated experimentally by applying it to a beam structure.

AbstractThe paper describes role of non-proportional damping in flutter type instability, demonstrated on simplified disc brake model. The discrete two degrees of freedom system is considered to imply damping induced instability through a system eigenvalues evaluation. The Frequency Response Function (FRF) is further calculated from measurements on the physical disc brake model. From FRF, damping properties are estimated and discussed. Several different loading states of the pad versus disc are considered to show loading impact on FRF and thus damping of the system.

The literature about the mass associated with a certain mode, usually denoted as the modal mass, is sparse. Moreover, the units of the modal mass depend on the technique which is used to normalize the mode shapes, and its magnitude depends on the number of degrees of freedom (DOFs) which is used to discretize the model. This has led to a situation where the meaning of the modal mass and the length of the associated mode shape is not well understood. As a result, normally, both the modal mass and the length measure have no meaning as individual quantities but only when they are combined in the frequency response function. In this paper, the problems of defining the modal mass and mode shape length are discussed, and solutions are found to define the quantities in such a way that they have individual physical meaning and can be estimated in an objective way.
