    Probabilistic Investigation of Error Propagation in Frequency Domain Decomposition-Based Operational Modal Analysis
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021) Hızal, Çağlayan; Aktaş, Engin
    Each operational modal analysis (OMA) technique may produce significant errors during the identification procedure due to the applied methodology, environmental/operational conditions, and instrumentation. Consequently, those errors can adversely affect the quality of identified parameters. In this context, this study aims at providing a comprehensive discussion on the propagation of predictions errors in the frequency domain OMA. To mitigate the prediction errors those considered to be induced by modeling and measurement errors, an extended formulation is presented based on a recently developed Modified Frequency and Spatial Domain Decomposition technique. A comprehensive investigation is presented for the probabilistic modeling of output power spectral density (PSD), considering prediction errors. Numerical and real data applications are conducted to show the effectiveness of the proposed methodology.

    A Boundary Element Method for Axisymmetric Elastodynamic Analysis
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 1996) Özkan, Gonca; Mengi, Yalçın
    A new numerical method is proposed for the boundary element analysis of axisymmetric bodies. The method is based on complex Fourier series expansion of boundary quantities in circumferential direction, which reduced the boundary element equation to an integral equation in (r-z) plane involving the Fourier coefficients of boundary quantities, where r and z are the coordinates of the r theta z cylindrical coordinate system. The kernels appearing in these integral equations can be computed effectively by discrete Fourier transform formulas together with the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm, and the integral equations (r-z) plane can be solved by Gaussian quadrature, which establishes the Fourier coefficients associated with boundary quantities. The Fourier transform solution can then be inverted into r theta z space by using again discrete Fourier transform formulas together with FFT algorithm. In this paper, we present the formulation of the proposed method which is outlined above. A comparison is given between the existent methods in literature and our method, which shows that the use of FFT algorithm for the integrations in circumferential direction provides considerable saving in computer time.
