In this paper, a study of the vibrations that appear in the transmission shafts of an adder gearbox used for a heavy truck is made. The truck has two engines on only one chassis and the power offered by these engines is summated and transmitted to the truck or the working machine. This type of transmission is used for oil production installation for the army. During the transportation of the installation to the workplace, only one engine is running, after mounting installation, both engines are running. This paper studies the vibrations of the adder gearbox, a complex construction, subjected to multiple operating requirements. In this regard, the authors first performed accuracy (accuracy) tests of the VIC 3D system on an original experimental mini-stand. Measurements performed on a mini disc demonstrated the validity and accuracy of the method, even if the cameras used were not high resolution. The authors applied the same principle in the case of the adder box from the truck, obtaining useful results for those in the field. The experimental method uses the facilities of a contactless optical measurement method (VIC-3D), which provides a high-accuracy quantitative linear and angular vibration analysis. The VIC measurement method offers, based on a frontal viewing of the disk during the resonance phenomenon and by simple calculus on the monitored linear displacements, the corresponding angular amplitude.

This paper proposes a displacement measuring technique for detailed noncontact mapping of the interior geometry of pipes. The technique, which is based on optical measurement using triangulation, employs a laser-beam scanner to measure radial displacement. To achieve high precision, three different algorithms for calculating the displacement from sensor output are compared in experiments. One of them, which calculates the displacement by using several direction-dependent characteristic curves, gives high accuracy. The accuracy of our experimental system is ±0.2 mm for radii between 33 and 42 mm. A mapping system using this technique with automated data-acquisition and 3D rendering of the interior is also described. Its effectiveness is illustrated by the experimental results.

Experimental modal analysis is a relatively young part of dynamics, which deals with the vibration modes identification of machines or their parts. Its development has started since the beginning of the eighties, when the computers hardware equipment has improved and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) could be used for the results determination. Nowadays it provides an uncountable set of vibration analysis possibilities starting with conventional contact transducers of acceleration and ending with modern noncontact optical methods. In this contribution we mention the use of high-speed digital image correlation by experimental determination of mode shapes and modal frequencies. The aim of our work is to create a program application called Modan 3D enabling the performing of experimental modal analysis and operational modal analysis. In this paper the experimental modal analysis of a thin steel sample performed with Q-450 Dantec Dynamics is described. In Modan 3D the experiment data were processed and the vibration modes were determined. The reached results were verified by PULSE modulus specialized for mechanical vibration analysis.

Abstract In this paper, the vibration analysis in terms of modal and harmonic responses are investigated for the power station structure of Kenyir Dam in Terengganu, Malaysia. Modal analysis is carried out to provide the dynamic characteristics of the power station which includes the natural frequencies and mode shapes. Meanwhile, the harmonic response analysis is performed by applying the force to the structure to obtain the Frequency Response Function (FRF) in certain range of frequencies. A real scale three-dimensional (3D) model of the Kenyir Dam power station is constructed using SolidWorks software and imported to ANSYS software for the Finite Element (FE) analysis. A proper boundary condition is taken into consideration to demonstrate the real behaviour of the power station structure. From the results, six most significant natural frequencies and mode shapes including the FRF in all three axes are selected. The highest natural frequency value occurred at 5.4 Hz with the maximum deflection of 0.90361 m in the z axis direction. This value is important in order to verify whether the structure can overcome the resonance phenomenon from the external disturbance forces in the future.

Abstract Among the full-field optical measurement methods, the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is one of the techniques which has been given particular attention. Technically, the DIC technique refers to a non-contact strain measurement method that mathematically compares the grey intensity changes of the images captured at two different states: before and after deformation. The measurement can be performed by numerically calculating the displacement of speckles which are deposited on the top of object’s surface. In this paper, the Two-Dimensional Digital Image Correlation (2D-DIC) is presented and its fundamental concepts are discussed. Next, the development of the 2D-DIC algorithms in the past 33 years is reviewed systematically. The improvement of 2DDIC algorithms is presented with respect to two distinct aspects: their computation efficiency and measurement accuracy. Furthermore, analysis of the 2D-DIC accuracy is included, followed by a review of the DIC applications for two-dimensional measurements.
