Abstract This paper reports on the application of Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) technique in vibration measurement of turbine blading. Using the time-averaged mode of ESPI, the first six modes of a turbocharger blade with airfoil profile were identified. The effect of the complicated profile of the blade was established by studying simplified model blades. Coupled modes were identified and successfully separated. Experimental results are compared with those obtained using finite element analysis.

In this article, three small wind turbine blades of different materials were manufactured. Finite element analysis was carried out using finite element software ANSYS 14.5 on modeled blades of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics 4412 airfoil profile. From finite element analysis, first, two flap-wise natural frequencies and mode shapes of three different blades are obtained. Experimental vibration analysis of manufactured blades was carried out using fast Fourier transform analyzer to find the first two flap-wise natural frequencies. Finally, the results obtained from the finite element analysis and experimental test of three blades are compared. Based on vibration analysis, we found that the natural frequency of glass fiber reinforced plastic blade reinforced with aluminum sheet metal (small) strips increases compared with the remaining blades. An increase in the natural frequency indicates an increase in the stiffness of blade.

This article focuses on various features of a finite element analysis (FEA) program designed by IDIADA, a Barcelona-based company providing design, engineering, testing, and homologation services to the automotive industry. The program has been designed as a solution to the problem of squeaks and rattles in an automobile. FEA software used by engineers from automotive testing company IDIADA detects potential automotive noise. The company uses Abaqus Unified Finite Element Analysis from Dassault Systèmes’ brand Simulia. The team delivered a paper at the Simulia Customer Conference in Barcelona in May 2011 to present the latest improvements in their methodology, applied to rattle in a car instrument panel and correlated with real-world testing. Research has shown that a standard noise-and-vibration analysis method alone can’t model, or predict, the contact that will result in a rattle. The engineers need to come up with a simulation that can accommodate both frequency for noise and vibration and contact for squeak and rattle.

Finite element analysis of honeycomb sandwich panel has been performed by modeling the structure through three different approaches. Continuum properties are calculated through analytical solution and verified through FE analysis of bare core. In addition to that the thickness of core has also been varied in all the three approaches in order to study its effect on vibration analysis of sandwich structure.

The high frequency vibration analysis of a composite laminate plate structure subjected to impact loads was investigated by using method of energy finite element analysis (EFEA). The time and space averaged energy density was used as the primary variable to form the governing differential equations. The multilayer laminate plate is simplified to be equivalent isotropic plate using the average concept, such as the average damping loss factor and the average group speed. The global system of EFEA equations can be solved numerically and the energy density distribution within the whole system can then be obtained. The EFEA numerical results for composite laminate plate structure were validated through comparison with those of very dense conventional finite element analysis (FEA).
