2084) Experimental Studies on 4-storied "Tilt-up" Buildings. Part II : Vibration Test(Structure)

Tilt-up Buildings

Introduction The reinforced concrete tilt-up building is the most popular form of light industrial and low-rise commercial construction in the Western United States and is a significant portion of new construction nationwide. This popularity is primarily driven by the construction speed and economical nature of tilt-up construction. Architectural acceptance has become more widespread as tilt-up...

Dynamic Characterization of Noise and Vibration Transmission Paths in Linear Cyclic Systems: Part II Experimental Validation

Experimental Study on the Floor Vibration Evaluation of Concrete Slab for Existing Buildings

building caused by floor impact sound. In this study, the concrete slab measured vibration impact sound for evaluation floor vibration of deteriorated buildings that fails to satisfy with the minimum thickness. In this experimental study, the vibration scale by impact sound was calibrated and compared with ISO and AIJ standard for vibration. The results show that vibration in slab with thicknes...

Experimental and Finite Element Studies on Free Vibration of Automotive Steering Knuckle

The main aim of this research is to determine the best material for manufacturing of steering knuckle in order to reduce the weight using aluminum alloy and Metal Matrix Composite (MMC). To achieve this purpose, the Modal test has been performed to study vibrational behavior of steering knuckle. CAD Model has been prepared by using coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Finally, the Finite Element...
