Correlation coefficients of mode shape between higher frequency modes and lower frequency modes are given. Then 17 high modes were initially selected as the dominant high modes in the analysis of wind-induced response, and cumulative mode correlation was used to judge the rationality of the method of selecting dominant high modals, so dominant modals of wind-induced response analysis are constructed. Based on these, the wind-induced vibration response of spherical Kiewitt cable dome was analyzed in frequency domain using CQC method. Through analyses of computational results, it is found that the selecting method of dominant modals by using the mode correlation coefficient can be applied in frequency domain analysis for wind-induced vibration response of cable dome structures. If the first 100 modals are considered into the analysis, the computational results obtained will be high precision.

The dynamics of Tower Crane is complicated by wind excitation which complicates the wind-induced vibration response analysis. The random wind-induced response analysis of tower crane is presented based on finite element method and virtual excitation method. The pulsating wind loads change into multiple-point correlation stationary excitation. This paper uses Davenport’s wind speed spectrum which does not change with height, and considers multiplepoint correlation of wind-induction. The tower crane was employed as a numerical example; the response spectra and Mean Square Root (RMS) of the tower crane were obtained by wind-induced vibration. The results indicate that the vibration of the tower crane showed a greater response in low frequency with the One-third Octave acceleration RMS being lower. Finally, the influences of the wind-induced vibration on comfort were analyzed.

Autoregressive (AR) method can provide a simulation of random process with relatively short computational time and acceptable accuracy while Newmark-β Method is a quick way to accomplish the response analysis. Therefore in this paper, the combination of these two methods will solve the problem of wind-induced response analysis quickly and precisely. According to several theories, such as wind engineering, vibration theory and random process, we succeed to model 37-dimensional correlated random wind velocity and it is used for the response analysis. Then we utilize Newmark-β method to analyze successfully and the key results demonstrate that Guangzhou New TV Tower does not satisfy the requirements in the building code of China thus vibration control is needed.

Wind-induced response analysis is an important process in the design of large-span roofs. Conventional time-domain methods are computationally more expensive than frequency-domain algorithms; however, the latter are not as accurate because of the ill-treatment of the modal coupling effects. This paper revisited the derivations of the frequency-domain algorithm and proposed a fast algorithm for estimating the dynamic wind-induced response considering duly the modal coupling effects. With the wind load cross-spectra modeled by rational functions, closed-form solutions to the frequency-domain integrals can be calculated by Cauchy’s residue theorem, rather than by numerical integration, thereby reducing the truncation errors and enhancing the efficiency of computation. The algorithm is applied to the analysis of a grandstand roof and a spherical dome. Through comparison with time domain analyses results, the algorithm is proved to be reliable. A criterion of the coupling modal combination was suggested based on the cumulative modal contribution rate of over 70%.

In turbomachinery applications, the rotating turbine blades are subjected to high static and dynamic loads. The static loads are due to centrifugal stresses and thermal strains whereas the dynamic loads are caused by the fluctuating gas forces resulting in high vibration amplitudes, which can lead to high cycle fatigue failures. Hence, one of the main tasks in the design of turbomachinery blading is the reduction in the blade vibration amplitudes to avoid high dynamic stresses. Thus, coupling devices like underplatform dampers and tip shrouds are applied to the blading to reduce the vibration amplitudes and, therefore, the dynamic stresses by introducing nonlinear contact forces to the system. In order to predict the resulting vibration amplitudes, a reduced order model of a shrouded turbine blading is presented including a contact model to determine the nonlinear contact forces. To compute the forced response, the resulting nonlinear equations of motion are solved in the frequency domain using the multiharmonic balance method because of the high computational efficiency of this approach. The transformation from the time domain into the frequency domain is done by applying Galerkin’s method in combination with a multiharmonic approximation function for the unknown vibration response. This results in an algebraic system of nonlinear equations in the frequency domain, which has to be solved iteratively in order to compute the vibration response. The presented methodology is applied to the calculation of the forced response of a nonlinear coupled turbine blading in the frequency domain.

Abstract The extended lift operation to deliver the Wellbay module (M5) combined with the Flare Tower (M8) from the Miller Platform in the North Sea to the shore using the Semi-Submersible Crane Vessel S7000 was restricted by the clearances between M5/M8 and the vessel crane booms. A method to calculate the clearances of the M5/M8 normal to the vessel crane booms has been developed and used in a frequency-domain response analysis to define operability limits. Investigations based on a series of scale model tests in regular waves and irregular short-crested waves including motion decay tests in calm water, conducted by the Maritime Research Institute (MARIN) in the Netherlands, were also made to further evaluate the behaviour of the suspended M5/M8 on S7000’s main hooks during transit. The time series of decay motions of the suspended M5/M8 obtained from the decay motion tests and a time domain analysis are compared and used to derive rigging damping. The numerical results of the frequency-domain analysis are validated with the experimental data for response amplitude operators (RAOs) found in regular waves and pink noise waves, significant and 3 hour most probable maximum/minimum (MPM) responses of interest in irregular waves.
