In this investigation, an analytical investigation of the previously un-explored local anti-resonance (LAR) phenomenon induced by guided elastic waves is performed, and the capability of LAR for tuning guided wave mode is identified which enables the suppression of undesired nonlinear waves from the disturbing sources. In the analytical investigation, the normal mode expansion method is adopted to analyze the guided wave reflection at the boundaries of a flat bottom hole, on which basis the generation of local anti-resonance is interpreted from the perspective of destructive interference of trapped waves in the hole. The capability of LAR for guided wave mode tuning is demonstrated, and thus an approach leveraging this capability is developed to suppress the undesired higher harmonics in guided waves, allowing for the precise acquisition of nonlinear waves associated with material defect. Numerical simulations and experimental investigations are performed for the proof-of-concept. This investigation presents a significantly simpler and more implementable design for achieving mode tuning compared to existing solutions.

The SSVI-NES, which achieves the TET by means of asymmetric single-sided vibro-impacts, can offer improved TET with a faster time scale and enhanced robustness with respect to forcing conditions when compared to other types of NESs that are constructed with smooth nonlinearities.

First, signals are transformed to the time-frequency domain, and then to the energy domain by integrating over time. And peak frequency points are detected frequency energy sum curve from each channel. Second, to distinguish source signals, cosine distances between peak frequency points and other ones are calculated, and BTFM is constructed.

Therefore, the primary focus of this work is to avoid these limitations by considering a suitable substructure which eliminates the need to model the RNA and the SSI, thus significantly reducing uncertainties. The substructure is obtained by ‘cutting’ the OWT at the top of the tower and at the ground level. To define the model, the resulting substructure then only requires geometries and material properties for the monopile and tower; information which is often known with greater certainty. A numerical case study is presented to investigate the accuracy of the proposed approach for input-state estimation of a 15 MW OWT. A series of commonly used setups involving accelerometers and inclinometers are used and the effects on the predicted fatigue life of the structure are discussed.
