Abstract Adaptive multi-level substructuring (AMLS) is a method for reducing the order of models of complex structures by orders of magnitude, while ensuring that the accuracy available from the original finite element model is preserved. A structure’s finite element model is transformed to a much more efficient representation in terms of approximate vibration modes for substructures on multiple levels. An adaptive procedure constructs an optimal model for satisfying a user-specified error tolerance, by determining which modes should be included in the model. In this paper, a frequency window implementation of AMLS is developed, in which frequency response analysis can be done over a frequency window at little additional cost beyond that of the solution at the center frequency. A numerical example is presented.

Abstract. To make vehicles more reliable and efficient, many researchers have tried to improve the rotor performance. Although certain achievements have been made, the previous finite element model did not reflect the historical process of the motor rotor well, and the rigidity and mass in rotor optimization are less discussed together. This paper firstly introduces fractional order into a finite element model to conduct the harmonic response analysis. Then, we propose an optimal design framework of a rotor. In the framework, objective functions of rigidity and mass are defined, and the relationship between high rigidity and the first-order frequency is discussed. In order to find the optimal values, an accelerated optimization method based on response surface (ARSO) is proposed to find the suitable design parameters of rigidity and mass. Because the higher rigidity can be transformed into the first-order natural frequency by objective function, this paper analyzes the first-order frequency and mass of a motor rotor in the experiment. The results proved that not only is the fractional model effective, but also the ARSO can optimize the rotor structure. The first-order natural frequency of asynchronous motor rotor is increased by 11.2 %, and the mass is reduced by 13.8 %, which can realize high stiffness and light mass of asynchronous motor rotors.

The move from conceptual design, through fabrication to observation and measurement on the resulting physical structure is fraught with uncertainty. This, together with the necessary simplifications inherent when using the finite element technique, makes the development of a predictive model for the physical structure sufficiently approximate that the use of random structural models is often to be preferred. In this paper, the random uncertainties of the mass, damping and stiffness matrices in a finite element model are replaced by random matrices, and a highly efficient pseudo excitation method for the dynamic response analysis of non-parametric probability systems subjected to stationary random loads is developed. A numerical example shows that the dynamic responses calculated using a conventional (mean) finite element model may be quite different from those based on a random matrix model. For precise fabrication, the uncertainties of models cannot be ignored and the proposed method should be useful in the analysis of such problems.

Research and development of three-dimensional vibration simulation technologies for nuclear facilities is one mission of the Center for Computational Science and e-Systems of the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA). A seismic intensity of upper 5 was observed in the area of High-Temperature Engineering Test Reactor (HTTR) at the Oarai Research and Development Center of JAEA during the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. In this paper, we report a seismic response analysis of this earthquake using three-dimensional models of the HTTR building. We performed a parametric study by using uncertainty parameters. Furthermore, we examined the variation in the response result for the uncertainty parameters to create a valid 3D finite element model.
