A technique for non-intrusive greedy piecewise-rational model reduction of frequency response problems over wide frequency bands

In the field of model order reduction for frequency response problems, the minimal rational interpolation (MRI) method has been shown to be quite effective. However, in some cases, numerical instabilities may arise when applying MRI to build a surrogate mo ...

Step Change Detection for Improved ROCOF Evaluation of Power System Waveforms

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Alexandra Cameron Karpilow, Guglielmo Frigo

In the analysis of power grid waveforms, the presence of amplitude or phase steps can disrupt the estimation of frequency and rate-of-change-of-frequency (ROCOF). Standard methods based on phasor-models fail in the extraction of signal parameters during th ...

A Vibrational Technique for in vitro Intraoperative Prosthesis Fixation Monitoring

Kamiar Aminian, Hooman Dejnabadi, Seyed Abdolmajid Yousefsani

Objective: In this paper, a new vibrational modal analysis technique was developed for intraoperative cementless prosthesis fixation evaluation upon hammering. Methods: An artificial bone (Sawbones)-prosthesis system was excited by sweeping of a sine signa ...

Vibration tests on interconnected timber elements using wood-wood connections

Yves Weinand, Julien Gamerro, Jean-François Bocquet

Vibration tests were performed on 3 large-scale timber slabs using wood-wood connections with a span of 8.1 meters. 10 impulsive vibration tests per specimen were performed to estimate the initial natural frequency. Vibrations were triggered using a hammer ...

Vibration Mode of MEMS Ultrasonic Sensors on Buckled Diaphragms with Piezoelectric Resonance Frequency Modification

Paul Muralt, Kaoru Yamashita

Vibration mode and resonance frequency of piezoelectric MEMS ultrasonic sensors was investigated on buckled diaphragm structures. The buckling of the diaphragms was introduced intrinsically through residual stress control of the piezoelectric film, and ext ...

Acoustic emission and ultrasonic testing for fatigue damage detection in a RC bridge deck slab

Eugen Brühwiler, Imane Bayane

There is a significant need to examine precisely the conditions of concrete road bridges because of the increasing traffic and axle loads and the fact that most existing bridges were not designed with respect to fatigue. In-situ investigations are challeng ...

High-Resolution fMRI of Auditory Cortical Map Changes in Unilateral Hearing Loss and Tinnitus

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Melissa Saenz, Naghmeh Ghazaleh, Stephanie Clarke

Animal models of hearing loss and tinnitus observe pathological neural activity in the tonotopic frequency maps of the primary auditory cortex. Here, we applied ultra high-field fMRI at 7 T to test whether human patients with unilateral hearing loss and ti ...

High resolution eddy current inspection and eddy current testing for additive manufacturing

David Florian Hippert

Non-destructive testing (NDT) is one of the key method developed for the safety mechanism of many industrial fields, e.g. aerospace, oil and gas and power industries. Among the NDT techniques, eddy current testing belongs to the well-established ones and h ...

Investigating The Size-Dependent Static And Dynamic Behavior Of Circular Micro-Plates Subjected To Capillary Force

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi, Mohammad Hussein Kahrobaiyan

The size-dependent static deflection, pull-in instability and resonant frequency of a circular microplate under capillary force have been studied using modified couple stress elasticity theory. SiZe-dependency is a phenomenon in which the normalized quanti ...

Resonance in swirling wakes and sloshing waves : non-normal and sublinear effects

Francesco Viola

Similarly to mechanical structures, stable flows can exhibit resonance when perturbed by an impulsive or harmonic forcing. Swirling wakes and sloshing waves belong to this kind of flows and manifest large energy response when excited close to their natural ...
