This article investigates experimentally the application of health monitoring techniques to assess the damage on a particular kind of hysteretic (metallic) damper called web plastifying dampers, which are subjected to cyclic loading. In general terms, hysteretic dampers are increasingly used as passive control systems in advanced earthquake-resistant structures. Nonparametric statistical processing of the signals obtained from simple vibration tests of the web plastifying damper is used here to propose an area index damage. This area index damage is compared with an alternative energy-based index of damage proposed in past research that is based on the decomposition of the load?displacement curve experienced by the damper. Index of damage has been proven to accurately predict the level of damage and the proximity to failure of web plastifying damper, but obtaining the load?displacement curve for its direct calculation requires the use of costly instrumentation. For this reason, the aim of this study is to estimate index of damage indirectly from simple vibration tests, calling for much simpler and cheaper instrumentation, through an auxiliary index called area index damage. Web plastifying damper is a particular type of hysteretic damper that uses the out-of-plane plastic deformation of the web of I-section steel segments as a source of energy dissipation. Four I-section steel segments with similar geometry were subjected to the same pattern of cyclic loading, and the damage was evaluated with the index of damage and area index damage indexes at several stages of the loading process. A good correlation was found between area index damage and index of damage. Based on this correlation, simple formulae are proposed to estimate index of damage from the area index damage.

Tämän insinöörityön tarkoituksena on kehittää avaruusinstrumentti, joka on osa Euroopan avaruusjärjestön ESA:n ja Japanin avaruusjärjestön JAXA:n BepiColombo-yhteistyöhanketta. Satelliitti lähetetään Merkurius-planeetan kiertoradalle vuonna 2013. Avaruusaluksen matka Merkuriukseen kestää yhteensä kuusi vuotta ja on perillä vuonna 2019. Yksi BepiColombo-satelliitin tieteellisistä instrumenteista on Oxford Instruments Analytical Oy:n kehittämä SIXS-instrumentti (Solar Intensity X-ray and particle Spectrometer). Instrumentin tarkoituksena on mitata auringosta tulevaa röntgen- ja partikkelisäteilyä. Se toimii yhteistyössä Merkuriuksen pintaa mittaavan MIXS-instrumentin (Mercury Imaging X-ray Spectrometer) kanssa. Tuloksista pystytään analysoimaan ne alkuaineet, joista Merkuriuksen pinta koostuu. Työn alussa esitellään teoriataustaa alkuaineiden mittauksesta niiltä osin, kuin se tämän työn kannalta on tarpeellista. Työssä syvennytään tarkemmin auringosta tulevan säteilyn mittauksesta vastaavan instrumentin tekniikkaan ja mekaniikkasuunnitteluun. Instrumentin lämpöteknisestä suunnittelusta, värähtelymittauksista ja lujuusanalyysista on työhön sisällytetty pääasiat. Työn tuloksena on kehitetty instrumenttiin tulevan partikkelidetektorin prototyyppi sekä instrumenttikotelon malli. Lopullisen koon instrumenttikotelolle määrittää vaadittavan elektroniikan viemä tila. Mittalaitteen kehitystyö jatkuu Oxford Instruments Analytical Oy:ssä vuoteen 2011 saakka.

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites have been used in wide variety of applications including, aerospace, marine, sporting equipment as well as in the defense sector due to their outstanding properties at low density. In many of their applications, moisture absorption takes place which may result in a reduction in mechanical properties even at lower temperature service. In this work, the viscoelastic properties, such as storage modulus (E′) and loss modulus (E″), were obtained through vibration damping tests for three carbon fiber/epoxy composite families up to the saturation point (6 weeks). Three carbon fiber/epoxy composites having [0/0] s, [0/90] s, and [±45] s orientations were studied. During vibration tests the storage modulus (E′) and loss modulus (E″) were monitored as a function of moisture uptake, and it was observed that the natural frequencies and E′ values decreased with the increase during hygrothermal conditioning due to the matrix plasticization. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
