The effect of periodic vibration noise in wellsite is an important factor which impact analysis on three-dimensional drill string vibration signal. In order to obtain more accurate characters of three-dimensional drill string vibration signal that reflects the drilling tools condition, we conduct researches on the periodic vibration noise in the wellsite, independent component analysis algorith...

The computation of compact and meaningful representations of high dimensional sensor data has recently been addressed through the development of Nonlinear Dimensional Reduction (NLDR) algorithms. The numerical implementation of spectral NLDR techniques typically leads to a symmetric eigenvalue problem that is solved by traditional batch eigensolution algorithms. The application of such algorith...

In this paper an efficient method is developed for the analysis of non-regular graphs which contain regular submodels. A model is called regular if it can be expressed as the product of two or three subgraphs. Efficient decomposition methods are available in the literature for the analysis of some classes of regular models. In the present method, for a non-regular model, first the nodes of the ...

A review of previous studies shows that there are two general views on how to determine demand in structures through incremental nonlinear static analysis. In the first view, multi-modal methods are used to determine demand in structures. In this view, the applied load pattern is applied to the structure according to the shape of each vibration mode, assuming that the structure deformation foll...

A spatially dense wireless sensor network was designed, developed and installed on a long-span suspension bridge for a 3-month deployment to record ambient acceleration. A total 174 sets of data 1.3 GB were collected from 64 sensor nodes on the main span and south tower of the Golden Gate Bridge. Analysis of the vibration data using power spectral densities and peak picking provide approximate ...

This paper presents a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor. The cubic theory of weakly nonlinear electroelasticity is applied to the model for describing the electromechanical coupling effect in the piezoelectric sensing elements which operate in thickness-shear and thickness-stretch vibration modes. Hamilton's principle is used to derive...

Many attempts have been made to automate the process through which vibration signals are analyzed to pinpoint a machine fault. Detailed diagnostic vibration analysis is often performed using portable spectrum analyzers that implement Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) mathematics on the vibration signal. In some instances, only a trained analyst can interpret the vibration data, effectively diagnose ...

Free vibration of soil often occurs during earthquakes. Since the vibration caused by earthquake does not have (steady state harmonic vibration) continuity, the alluvium vibrates with its natural frequency between two natural seismic waves. This study evaluates the effect of piles on the period of free vibration of a soil layer using numerical method. In the first stage, using analytical equati...
