Vibration fatigue failure is a critical problem of hydraulic pipes under severe working conditions. Strain modal testing of small and light pipes is a good option for dynamic characteristic evaluation, structural health monitoring and damage identification. Unique features such as small size, light weight, and high multiplexing capability enable Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors to measure stru...

During a revisit to modal identification in the past three decades, an overview of the major developments and issues in modal identification is motivated. A brief review on the progress from Single-Input/Single-Output (SISO), Single-Input/Multi-Output (SIMO) to Multi-Input/Multi-Output (MIMO) identification in frequency, time and spatial domain, is presented. The latest developments and issues ...

Abstract Task-based language teaching is considered an effective way to achieve a harmony between grammar and communication. The present study investigates two different ways of teaching modal verbs: task-based versus traditional approaches. To this purpose, an Oxford Placement Test was administered to select 40 homogeneous participants out of a larger population who took this test. The selecte...

The behavior of an asymmetric bladed rotor was investigated in this study. which performs solid-solid, liquid-liquid, liquid-solid separation processes is part the decanter machine and named as screw conveyor. purpose study to determine dynamics on free conditions for future development blade assembled rotors. It important designer natural frequencies so that some precautions can be taken durin...

The nonlinear system becomes an area with numerous investigations over the past decades. The conventional modal analysis could not be  applied on nonlinear continuous system which makes it impossible to construct the reduced order models and obtain system response based on limited number of measurement points. Nonlinear normal modes provide a useful tool for extending modal analysis to nonlinea...
