4. Resonant vibration is the root cause of many mechanical
failures Dynamic characteristics of a structure must be extracted
to better understand structural vibrational problem Existing modal
extraction techniques are: (1) EMA, (2) OMA and (3) ISMA In this
study, the excitation of a structure is made using impulse
excitation technique Introduction
5. Current EMA Practice #experimental condition
#Labor-intensive #Time-consuming #Incur machine downtime cost
Practice OMA Curren #Lacks of input force informatio
6. EMA OMA ISMA Presence of Ambient Force Cannot be conducted

excitation Does not contain input data from excitation Contains
Input data from excitation Output Response Response Response
Averaging Frequency domain Time domain Time/frequency domain
Averaging technique Perform Frequency averaging after FFT Perform
Time Averaging before FFT Perform Impact- Synchronous Time
Averaging before FFT Comparison of Existing Methods
7. utilizes ISTA before performing Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)
to obtain its corresponding Frequency Response Function (FRF)
Non-synchronous components like noises and other unaccounted
signals are averaged out in the time domain before performing FFT,
after few random repetitive impacts Waveforms that are synchronous
with the reference tend to be reinforced Hence, ISMA can be
performed in the presence of ambient forces while having the input
force information Why ISMA
8. Importance of Averages slowly diminish non- synchronous
components reinforce structures response synchronous to the
repetitive impact force due to the trigger (impact hammer) Impact
force slightly higher than cyclic load could determine the dynamic
characteristics successfully Too low impact force with reference to
the operating cyclic loads will not excite the structure whereas
too high impacts may result in non-linearity Importance of Impact
Level Importance of Impact Frequency is the inverse of impact
contact time contact time should be as small as possible
9. has difficulty in extracting dynamic characteristics of a
structure which is closer to the operating speed for high speed
machines perform badly if the impact frequency in ISMA is
synchronous with the running speed performs random impacts using
manually operated impact hammer which is labour-intensive and
time-consuming Manual procedures result in inconsistency in terms
of impact contact time, impact period and impact level, as well as
human errors e.g. double impact This gives rise to the need of
automating ISMA Limitation of ISMA
10. To control and synchronize the portable calibrated auto
impact excitation device with virtual instruments To study the
impact profiles generated by the auto impact excitation device
which facilitates ISMA To compare and verify the dynamic
characteristics obtained by auto impact excitation device to that
obtained by EMA during non-rotating condition (benchmark)
Objectives
11. Obtain modal parameters under experimental conditions
Conducted in complete shutdown mode Excitation force applied in the
time domain, but the system responses are auto-correlated with the
measured input (Peter Avitabile, 2001; Peres & Bono, 2011) The
correlated functions are transformed into frequency domain to
obtain the transfer functions (FRF) 2.1 Experimental Modal Analysis
(EMA)
12. = where and are n x 1 frequency vectors of accelerations
and forces respectively. is an n x n square matrix of FRF of the
system. It also regarded as accelerance (Hosseini, Arzanpour,
Golnaraghi, & Parameswaran, 2013)
13. Alternatively, can be written as, = =1 (Chao, 2013), in
page 30, describes above constitutes a reciprocal theorem for
dynamic loads that is similar to Maxwells reciprocal theorem for
static loads So, it is OK to rove or fix any of the impact hammer
or the force transducer
14. By performing FRF on the continuous system in EMA, the
formula to obtain the FRF = =1 2 + 2 + 2 mode shape coefficient,
the undamped natural frequency and damping can be obtained by
selecting a band of frequency around the region curve-fitting the
FRF through best-fit methods such as Least Square method

18. time response block is defined as the block size, BS over
the sampling rate, SR: tblock = BS SR The period of square wave, T
is defined as the inverse of frequency, f of the square wave: T = 1
f The number of cycle of square wave within the response time block
is: n = tblock T (n = integers; otherwise, truncate decimals) Duty
cycle is the percentage of one period in which a signal is active
and is given by: tON = DC T The square wave signals can only moves
along the time axis provided that there is a time difference, t.
Hence, the condition of t 0 nT, must be met. Hence, is given by: t
= tblock nT
19. Next, the number of block which is On, N can be evaluated
as: N = tON t (N = integers; otherwise, truncate decimals) The
impact contact time, is evaluated by taking the number of blocks
which is On, to multiply by the time response block, : Tpulse = tON
t tblock = N tblock The impact period is determined by using:
Tinterval = t tblock The inverse of Tinterval gives the impact
frequency: fimpact = 1 Tinterval a heuristic method is adopted to
determine a range of accepted combination of sampling rate-block
size-frequency-duty cycle
20. quantitative technique to compare the closeness between two
families of mode shapes x(1) and x(2) (Allemang, 2003; Allemang

45. Enhanced ISMA that uses ISTA technique has successfully
automated the conventional modal testing methods by utilizing to
replace for operational modal testing purpose 5.1 Conclusion
46. The enhanced ISMA can automatically deliver impact onto a
structure at a consistent impact level over constant impact period,
at a very small impact contact time to accurately and effortlessly
acquire the dynamic characteristics of a test structure under non-
rotating condition The impact profile can be changed by the auto
impact sampling rate, block size, frequency and duty cycle readily
with the use of auto impact excitation device
47. Auto impact excitation device with the built-in of high
sensitivity that is covered with rubber tip and is isolated from
the boundary condition of the test structure is developed for
operational modal testing purpose as its dynamic characteristics
are highly comparable to the EMA (benchmark set)
48. Perform the enhanced ISMA technique on a rotating structure
for verification purpose Create a programming algorithm in the
virtual instrument (DASYLab) to immediately stop the data
acquisition process after the running components and noises are
successfully filtered out Devise a practical way to isolate the
auto impact excitation device from the boundary condition of a test
structure 5.2 Recommendation
