Analyzing the bearing wear using direct spectrum method when transferring the torque motion from the machine

The present article examines rolling bearings with varying degrees of wear using direct spectrum method when operating from a machine drive. To achieve this purpose, a narrow-band spectrum analyzer was used. Also, several experiments were carried out to determine the effects of different types of bearing wear on the frequency characteristics of the vibroacoustic signal, which allows to predict the occurrence of defects in the bearing structure. Eventually, data were gathered on the increase in vibroacoustic noise in different types of wear and conclusions were drawn about the possibility of using the spectral method to predict failures during the operation of bearings. The results showed the lack of lubrication in the bearing and the presence of corrosion leads to an increase in amplitude frequencies in the high frequency range of 4000 - 10000 Hz. Moreover, the amplitude of the bearing without lubrication is about 35% higher than the amplitude of the worn bearing. Finally, due to the research carried out, it becomes possible to create a method for determining the type and nature of wear of rolling bearings of metal-cutting and other equipment. This will allow in the future to create a system for monitoring malfunctions directly during the operation of technological equipment without disassembling its units, reduce the cost of repair work and prevent emergency failures.

A High-Speed Serial Digital Interface Video Signal Jitter Measurement Method

This paper designs a measurement method for high-speed serial digital interface video signal jitter. Firstly, we introduce the features of SDI signal and the jitter measurement methods of traditional high-speed serial signals. A jitter model is built for the SDI signal while the properties of the components are analysed. An adjusted dual-Dirac model is adopted to measure the jitter in the signal. This method can accurately analyse different jitter components in SDI signals. It is directly performed on oscilloscope, which is beneficial to the traceability of the jitter. The feasibility of the method is verified by experiments. The measurement results show that the method has better measurement accuracy than the direct spectrum method.

기존 비선형약산법들의 신뢰성 개선을 위한 비선형직접스펙트럼법

This paper considers the nonlinear direct spectrum method to estimate seismic performance of mixed building structures without iterative computations, given dynamic property from stiffness skeleton curve and nonlinear pseudo acceleration and/or ductility ratio p from response spectrum. Nonlinear response history analysis has been performed and analysed with various earthquakes for evaluation of correctness and confidence of nonlinear direct spectrum method. The conclusions of this study are as follows; (1) Nonlinear direct spectrum method is considered as a practical method which is applicable to compute the structural initial elastic period and the yielding strength from stiffness skeleton owe and calculate the nonlinear maximum response of structure directly from nonlinear response spectrum. (2) The comparison of the analysis results from NDSM and NRHA showed that the average errors were less than 20% in about 3/4 of the analysis cases, and that the results obtained from NDSM turned out to be generally larger than those from NRHA.

비선형 약산법들에 의한 전단형 건물의 지진응답평가

성능에 기초한 설계법에서는 비선형 응답산정이 필수적이다. 이를 위한 해석법으로는 비선형 시간이력해석, 비선형 정적해석 혹은 비선형의 영향을 고려한 등가정적해석 등이 있다. 비선형 응답을 산정하기 위한 가장 정확한 해석방법은 비선형 시간이력해석법이지만, 많은 시간과 노력을 필요로 한다. 비선형 직접스펙트럼법은 pushover곡선으로부터 구조물의 선형 진동주기와 항복강도를 구한 다음, 반복계산 없이 비선형 응답을 직접 산정하는 약산법이다. 본 연구에서는 비선형 약산법들의 정확성과 신뢰성을 다양한 지진과 전단형 건물의 여러 가지 조건에 대해 검토하고자 한다. 본 연구의 결론은 다음과 같다. 1) 선형 능력스펙트럼법에 의한 약산응답들은 수렴하는 해를 구하지 못하거나 발산하는 경우가 발생하며 수렴하더라도 큰 오차가 발생하는 경우가 있으며, 지진별로 오차의 편차가 크다. 2) 비선형 능력스펙트럼법은 능력스펙트럼법보다 계산량이 크게 줄어들고, 해는 구해지나 요구곡선의 특성으로 정확한 해를 구하기 어려울 수 있으며, 전반적으로 큰 오차가 발생한다. 3) 비선형 직접스펙트럼법은 다른 약산법들에 비해 추가적이고 반복적인 계산과정 없이 pushover곡선과 비선형 응답스펙트럼으로부터 비교적 정확한 값을 직접 구할 수 있으므로 실용적인 방법으로 사료된다. In performance-based design methods, it is clear that the evaluation of the nonlinear response is required. Analysis methods available to the design engineer today are nonlinear time history analyses, or monotonic static nonlinear analyses, or equivalent static analyses with simulated inelastic influences. The nonlinear time analysis is the most accurate method in computing the nonlinear response of structures, but it is time-consuming and necessitate more efforts. Some codes proposed the capacity spectrum method based on the nonlinear static analysis to determine earthquake-induced demand. The nonlinear direct spectrum method is proposed and studied to evaluate nonlinear response of structures, without iterative computations, given by the structural linear vibration period and yield strength from pushover analysis. The purpose of this paper is to compare the accuracy and the reliability of approximate nonlinear methods with respect to shear buildings and various earthquakes. The conclusions of this study are summarized as follows: 1) Linear capacity spectrum method may fail to find a convergent answer or make a divergence. Even if a convergent answer is found, it has a large error in some cases and the error varies greatly depending on earthquakes. 2) Although nonlinear capacity spectrum method need much less calculation than capacity spectrum method and find an answer in any case, it may be difficult to obtain an accurate answer and generally large error occurs. 3) The nonlinear direct spectrum method is thought to have good applicability because it produce relatively correct answer than other methods directly from pushover curves and nonlinear response spectrums without additional and iterative calculations.

복합구조물에 대한 비선형 직접스펙트럼법의 신뢰성

대부분의 구조물들은 강한 지진을 받을 경우, 비선형 거동의 변형이 예상된다. 구조물의 내진평가는 구조물에 가해진 지진력에 대한 변위요구와 같은 구조물의 성능평가를 필요로 한다. 여러 가지 비선형해석법 가운데 구조물의 내진역량을 계산하기 위한 가장 정확한 방법은 비선형 시각이력해석(NRHA)이긴 하나 많은 시간과 노력이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 구조물의 비선형 거동을 보다 간편하게 예측하기 위한 정확하고 실용적인 비선형 약산해석법에 관한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 일부 약산적 방법 중 능력스펙트럼법(CSM)은 개념적으로는 간단하나 반복적인 계산과정과 함께 때로는 해가 없거나 중복적인 해를 갖는 약점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강성골격곡선으로부터 산정한 구조물의 초기 탄성진동주기 T와 응답스펙트럼으로부터 산정한 비선형 유사가속도 h<TEX>$_{y}$</TEX> /g 및 연성비 <TEX>$\mu$</TEX>를 사용하여, 반복적인 계산과정 없이 복합구조물의 내진성능을 평가하는 비선형 직접스펙트럼법(NDSM)을 고려한다. 다양한 지진과 복합구조물에 대한 NDSM의 신뢰성과 실용성을 비선형 시각이력해석(NRHA) 결과와 비교함으로써 검토하였다. Most structures are expected to deform beyond the limit of linearly elastic behavior when subjected to strong ground motion. Seismic evaluation of structure requires an estimation of the structural performance in terms of displacement demand imposed by earthquakes on the structure. The nonlinear response history analysis(NRHA) among various nonlinear analysis methods is the most accurate to compute seismic performance of structures, but it is time-consuming and necessitate more efforts. The nonlinear approximate methods, which is more practical and reliable tools for predicting seismic behavior of structures, are extensively studied. Among them, the capacity spectrum method(CSM) is conceptually simple, but the iterative procedure is time-consuming and may sometimes lead to no solution or multiple solutions. This paper considers a nonlinear direct spectrum method(NDSM) to evaluate seismic performance of mixed building structures without iterative computations, given dynamic property T from stiffness skeleton curve and nonlinear pseudo acceleration <TEX>$A_{y}$</TEX>/g and/or ductility ratio <TEX>$\mu$</TEX> from response spectrum. The nonlinear response history analysis has been performed and analyzed with various earthquakes for estimation of reliability and practicality of NDSM with mixed building structures.
