A mode-based meta-model for the frequency response func- tions of uncertain structural systems

چکیده
Frequency response functions (FRFs) play an important role in the assessment of the structural response of linear systems subjected to dynamic forces. In this work a meta-model is presented to approximate the eigenfrequencies and mode shapes to describe the FRFs. The meta-model is supposed to provide a computationally fast solution for the eigenvalue problem, which needs to be solved for each set of random structural input parameters. The provided relations can be helpful in the design stage to control the dynamic response within certain frequency bands. Moreover, the meta-model can be used for optimization and reliability assessments based on Monte Carlo sampling procedures. Numerical examples show the application of the method focusing mainly on the variability of the FRFs w.r.t. the number of random variables involved to model the mechanical system. The accuracy of the meta-model to approximate FRFs is assessed by a comparison with the solution by Finite Element (FE) analyses.

Earthquake Analysis of Base Isolated Structures Including Soil-Structure Interaction
A frequency domain dynamic analysis is needed to obtain the response of structures constructed on a system of base isolators on flexible soil when subjected to earthquake ground motion. In such systems, the lateral stiffness of the base isolators is so small, compared to the structural stiffness, that in an earthquake attack the fundamental vibration mode dominates the response. With this in mi...

Earthquakes are one of the most destructive natural phenomena which consist of rapid vibrations of rock near the earth’s surface. Because of their unpredictable occurrence and enormous capacity of destruction, they have brought fear to mankind since ancient times. Usually the earthquake acceleration is noted from the equipment in crisp or exact form. But in actual practice those data may not be...
متن کاملDesign of robust fuzzy Sliding-Mode control for a class of the Takagi-Sugeno uncertain fuzzy systems using scalar Sign function
This article presents a fuzzy sliding-mode control scheme for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy which are subject to norm-bounded uncertainties in each subsystem. The proposed stabilization method can be adopted to explore T-S uncertain fuzzy systems (TSUFS) with various local control inputs. Firstly, a new design is proposed to transform TSUFS into sliding-mode dynamic systems.In addi...
