Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement for UndergraduateLaboratories

结构动力学和控制实验由本科生进行。已获得类似的仪器和实验成功地整合到研究生课程。然而，现有的设施不足以满足大班本科生的额外需求。这些实验将为本科生实验室专用的两个试验站提供足够的资源。在实验的第一部分，将对几个简单的结构进行模态分析，其结果将与解析和/或计算解决方案进行比较。在第二部分，表示飞机和空间结构的线性和非线性系统将在模拟模拟器上建模。控制方法将通过微机数字化实施。这些实验将有助于更好地理解在刚体和柔性体动力学和控制中产生的现象，并提供在工业和学术环境中普遍存在的设备的实践经验。

Experiments in structural dynamics and control are to be conducted by undergraduate students. Similar instrumentation has been acquired and experiments successfully integrated into the graduate curriculum. However, insufficient facilities exist to handle the additional requirements of large undergraduate classes. The experiments will provide adequate resources for two test station dedicated to the undergraduate laboratory. In the first part of the experiment, modal analysis will be performed on several simple structures, the results of which will be compared with analytical and/or computation solutions. In the second part, linear and nonlinear systems representing aircraft and space structures will be modeled on a analog simulator. Control methodology will be digitally implemented via microcomputer. These experiments will lead to better understanding of phenomena arising in both rigid body and flexible body dynamics and control as well as providing hands on experience with equipment generally found in both industrial and academic environments.
