Abstract A critical problem facing data collection in structural health monitoring, for instance via sensor networks, is how to extract the main components and useful features for damage detection. A structural dynamic measurement is more often a complex time-varying process and therefore, is prone to dynamic changes in time-frequency contents. To extract the signal components and capture the useful features associated with damage from such non-stationary signals, a technique that combines the time and frequency analysis and shows the signal evolution in both time and frequency is required. Wavelet analyses have proven to be a viable… More >

Abstract The influence of an acoustic field on the dynamic behavior of a flexible structure is a common issue in automotive applications. An example is the pressure-induced structure-borne sound of piping and exhaust systems. Efficient model order reduction and substructuring techniques accelerate the finite element analysis and enable the vibroacoustic optimization of such complex systems with acoustic fluid-structure interaction. This research reviews the application of the Craig-Bampton and the Rubin method to fluid-structure coupled systems and presents two automotive applications. First, a fluid-filled piping system is assembled by substructures or superelements according to the Craig-Bampton method.… More >
