Abstract For the quantitative dynamic analysis of aero gas turbines, accurate modal parameters must be identified. However, the complicated structure of thin-walled casings may cause false mode identification and mode absences if conventional methods are used, which makes it more difficult to identify the modal parameters. A modal parameter identification method based on improved covariance-driven stochastic subspace identification (covariance-driven SSI) is proposed. The ability to reduce the number of mode absences and the solving stability are improved by a covariance matrix dimension control method. Meanwhile, the number of false mode identification is reduced via a false mode elimination method. In addition, the real mode complementation and the excitation frequency mode screening can be realized by a multispeed excitation method. The numerical results of a typical rotor model and measured data of an aero gas turbine validated the proposed method.

Stochastic Subspace Identification

A method of modal parameter identification of structures using reconstructed displacements was proposed in the present research. The proposed method was developed based on the stochastic subspace identification (SSI) approach and used reconstructed displacements of measured accelerations as inputs. These reconstructed displacements suppressed the high-frequency component of measured acceleration data. Therefore, in comparison to the acceleration-based modal analysis, the operational modal analysis obtained more reliable and stable identification parameters from displacements regardless of the model order. However, due to the difficulty of displacement measurement, different types of noise interferences occurred when an acceleration sensor was used, causing a trend term drift error in the integral displacement. A moving average low-frequency attenuation frequency-domain integral was used to reconstruct displacements, and the moving time window was used in combination with the SSI method to identify the structural modal parameters. First, measured accelerations were used to estimate displacements. Due to the interference of noise and the influence of initial conditions, the integral displacement inevitably had a drift term. The moving average method was then used in combination with a filter to effectively eliminate the random fluctuation interference in measurement data and reduce the influence of random errors. Real displacement results of a structure were obtained through multiple smoothing, filtering, and integration. Finally, using reconstructed displacements as inputs, the improved SSI method was employed to identify the modal parameters of the structure.

In the wind tunnel test of a long-span bridge model, to ensure that the dynamic characteristics of the model can satisfy the test design requirements, it is particularly important to accurately identify the modal parameters of the model. First, the stochastic subspace identification algorithm was used to analyze the modal parameters of the model in the wind tunnel test; then, Grubbs criterion was introduced to effectively eliminate outliers in the damping ratio matrix. Stochastic subspace identification algorithm with Grubbs criterion improved the accuracy of the modal parameter identification and the ability to determine system matrix order and prevented the modal omissions caused by determining the stable condition of the damping ratio in the stability diagram. Finally, Oujiang Bridge was used as an example to verify the stochastic subspace identification algorithm with Grubbs criterion and compare with the results of the finite element method. The example shows that the improved method can be effectively applied to the modal parameter identification of bridges.

Bayesian theory is adopted in modal parameter identification, finite element model updating and residual capacity evaluation of the structures recently. Fast Bayesian FFT modal identification approach provides a rigorous way to obtain modal parameters and well-separated modes using the fast Fourier transform under ambient excitation. Moreover, it avoids choosing the modal order or removing false modes based on the stable diagram and has its obvious advantages. In this paper, modal parameters of a rigid frame-continuous girders bridge under ambient excitation are identified by this approach. Comparison with stochastic subspace identification (SSI) method indicates that Fast Bayesian FFT is a good approach to identify the modal parameters even for a large number of measurement channels.

The measured frequency response functions (FRFs) in the modal test are usually contaminated with noise that significantly affects the modal parameter identification. In this paper, a modal peak-based Hankel-SVD (MPHSVD) method is proposed to eliminate the noise contaminated in the measured FRFs in order to improve the accuracy of the identification of modal parameters. This method is divided into four steps. Firstly, the measured FRF signal is transferred to the impulse response function (IRF), and the Hankel-SVD method that works better in the time domain rather than in the frequency domain is further applied for the decomposition of component signals. Secondly, the iteration of the component signal accumulation is conducted to select the component signals that cover the concerned modal features, but some component signals of the residue noise may also be selected. Thirdly, another iteration considering the narrow frequency bands near the modal peak frequencies is conducted to further eliminate the residue noise and get the noise-reduced FRF signal. Finally, the modal identification method is conducted on the noise-reduced FRF to extract the modal parameters. A simulation of the FRF of a flat plate artificially contaminated with the random Gaussian noise and the random harmonic noise is implemented to verify the proposed method. Afterwards, a modal test of a flat plate under the high-temperature condition was undertaken using scanning laser Doppler vibrometry (SLDV). The noise reduction and modal parameter identification were exploited to the measured FRFs. Results show that the reconstructed FRFs retained all of the modal features we concerned about after the noise elimination, and the modal parameters are precisely identified. It demonstrates the superiority and effectiveness of the approach.
