| description | Discovering the in-service dynamic forces, their location and their line of action
regarding the structure are necessary during its design, development and modification
stages. Additional information about the loads experienced by the structure will aid the
development iterations resulting in a better outcome. However, direct measurement by
using force transducer is not practical in some cases due to some difficulties in force
sensor configuration. As an alternative, it would be more convenient to just measure the
response and dynamic characteristic of a structure by using Operating Deflection Shape
(ODS) analysis and Frequency Response Function (FRF) measurement. Hence, the
analysis involved backtracking to determine the force causing the problem can be done.
It is known that this inverse problem is ill-conditioned in most practical cases. In this
study, a Perspex plate with 4 ground supports was used as test rig. Recovery of
unknown impact force using Modal Transformation Method (MTM) is experimentally
demonstrated. The transformation from high condition number of synthesised FRF
matrix to a well-conditioned case is demonstrated by adding additional information of
force location. The low quality of fitting a modal model by using modal parameters
obtained from the polynomial curve fitting algorithm is highlighted. In this study,
impact force determination with MTM is enhanced by using integration and data
filtering approaches. The effectiveness of various types of responses (i.e. measured
acceleration responses from sensors; velocity and displacement responses obtained from
integration result) is studied, and the results of the impact force determination are
examined in under-estimated, even-estimated and over-estimated cases of fixed analysis
frequency range. The outcomes show the importance of selecting a suitable response
unit and an appropriate analysis frequency range in impact force determination. When
the excitation frequency of an impact force is unknown and time-variant, selection of an
appropriate analysis frequency range by using Power Spectral Density (PSD) tool is |
