摘要

The input forces and structural reactions of an Experimental Modal Analysis [1] test are known. It should be emphasized that the dynamic response is a type of “fingerprint” that is independent of the applied loads and only dependent on the intrinsic properties (mass, stiffness, damping, limitations, degrees of freedom, etc.). If there is no modification to the structure (damage, etc.), the reaction of the structure stays the same; if not, there is a variation in the frequencies and modes of vibration. Here, the forcing functions produced by a vibrodyne are studied experimentally, and the discrepancies between these loading patterns and the theoretical sinusoidal profiles are identified. It is highlighted how these incompatibilities affect a basic structural model’s simulated dynamic response. These study’s findings are then examined, and a method for compiling a database of actual force functions applied by vibrodynes under various operating circumstances is described. When employing vibrodyne for dynamic testing of next-generation composite constructions, such a tool can be extremely helpful. The structure can then be dynamically identified by comparing the experimental data with the findings of FE models. Dynamic structure identification is actually a non-destructive approach that can be used for new construction, inventive constructions (for which there are no well-defined design requirements), and even existing, historic buildings (to assess their state).
