In this study, a Bayesian predictive model incorporating data association metric and incremental updating scheme is proposed to forecast the variability of modal frequencies under EOV. Fast Bayesian Operational Modal Analysis (FBOMA) is firstly employed to identify the modal properties. Based on the training data set of identified modal frequencies and multivariate Environmental and Operational Parameters (EOPs), Maximal Information Coefficient (MIC) as an efficient data association metric capable of capturing a wide range of associations is employed to measure their dependence, thereby screening out the factors with the largest correlation. Subsequently, Bayesian emulator providing a nonlinear surrogate mapping between the probability spaces of the modal frequencies and multivariate EOPs is established as a predictive model to forecast the Most Probable Values (MPVs) and associated uncertainties of modal frequencies due to arbitrary EOV. The approach constantly adapts the new field measurements to incrementally update the predictive model and improve the prediction accuracy. The case study using long-term monitoring of the Z24-Bridge demonstrates the superior prediction accuracy of the proposed scheme. Also, the proposed probabilistic input-output modelling scheme has the potential of distinguishing the variations of frequencies due to damage and EOV.

Among these methods, modal parameter identification based solely on output data is a cost-effective approach. Since structures are influenced by multiple input sources simultaneously, the use of poly-reference methods is essential for identifying the structural poles with minimal uncertainty. The main drawback of poly-reference methods is their dependence on loading conditions, which must differ significantly to accurately identify the structural poles. Another limitation of these methods is the presence of non-periodic harmonic components in the frequency responses of structures, which cause dispersion around the structural poles and lead to the identification of spurious poles. To address these issues, a new approach called Poly Reference Weighted Hermitian Transmissibility Operational Modal Analysis (P-WHTOMA) is employed. In this study, a 4-DOF measured structure is analyzed under three earthquake records with varying noise levels using this novel approach. This method utilizes the weight effects on the structural responses to reduce the frequency domain of the responses and minimize spectral dispersion around the structural poles. Therefore, modal parameters are identified with minimal uncertainty under similar loading conditions and correlated input sources. Furthermore, by defining transmissibility functions using Hermitian polynomials, orthogonality is established between the normal vectors of the transmissibility functions, resulting in the identification of modal parameters at the structural poles with reduced uncertainty. In this new approach, increasing noise has less impact on the identification of structural poles. Another advantage of this method is that, unlike single-reference methods, higher structural modes are identified with greater resolution.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17233,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sound and Vibration","volume":"615 ","pages":"Article 119212"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144099184","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Numerous studies have qualitatively explored the localized dynamics via simulations and experiments, investigating the defect resonance frequency as the primary feature. However, the frequency represents only a subset of the relevant characteristics and a systematic approach to quantify the full scope of the defect dynamics remains elusive. This article establishes the frequency, mode shape, and localized velocity (or displacement) amplitude envelope as three significant factors governing the defect resonance dynamics, and quantitatively examines these characteristics using a modified version of the perturbed tridiagonal n-Toeplitz method. The proposed method accurately estimates the resonance characteristics in 1D and 2D defect-embedded monoatomic PnC lattices with single and multiple defects and elucidates the effects of damping. The method is used to highlight how the key characteristics of defect modes depend on system parameters. Finally, we demonstrate the benefits of defect modes through two defect-based monoatomic PnCs that can accommodate – (i) a virtual ground, and (ii) achieve customized acoustic interaction and absorption, and use the proposed method to analyze these scenarios.

Works on the optimization of the pore design have shown that little improvement can be obtained at low frequencies. Meso-scale inclusions embedded in foam-like materials have been employed to address this problem and broaden the working frequency ranges, mainly through resonance phenomena. Although the subwavelength resonators effectively absorb sound in the low frequency range, the sizes needed to achieve low frequency performance frequently prohibit practical use. In this work we demonstrate how compact sound absorbing panels can be designed by exploiting the slow sound propagation achieved in flexible rubber tubes. An axisymmetric FEM formulation is developed and an optimization of the Biot parameters is carried out.

Therefore, it is interesting yet challenging to reveal the coupling effect on the cross-axis bending-torsion coupled dynamic behaviors of 2D micromirrors. Here, a temperature-dependent cross-axis bending-torsion coupled dynamic model is developed to elucidate the thermal-induced frequency drift of 2D micromirrors. The proposed model explains the intricate multimodal coupling relationships of cross-axis 2D micromirrors, indicating that the thermal-induced frequency drift of fast-scanning mode is influenced not only by the torsional stiffness of fast-axis beam, but also by the bending stiffness of slow-axis beam. Consequently, by introducing the temperature-dependent cross-axis bending-torsion coupled stiffness matrix, the prediction error of thermal-induced frequency drift is reduced by 88.7 %. Furthermore, a package optimization method for low thermal-induced frequency drift is presented based on the proposed model. As a result, the temperature coefficient of frequency (TCF) is decreased by 62.4 % at the temperature difference of 120 K, which significantly improves the frequency stability of cross-axis 2D micromirrors.
