Experimental pseudo-equivalent deterministic excitation method extension for low frequency domain applications
Résumé
In transport engineering applications, flow-induced vibrations is an interesting topic to address since it may negatively affect the operation and the response of the system. Wind tunnel facilities are mandatory to test the structure design efficiency or to analyse new material performances under aerodynamic load. However, these experimental tests can be expensive and take a long time to set up and operate; hence, alternative methods for the reproduction of the structural response to a turbulent boundary layer excitation are required to accelerate and improve the experimental setups and provide more data for uncertainty analysis. In this paper, an alternative approach, the eXperimental Pseudo-Equivalent Deterministic Excitation method (X-PEDEM), is here extended for applications in the low frequency domain. An investigation about the applicability of the method in the low frequency domain is conducted, together with an analysis of its main properties. The reliability of the method is then tested numerically by considering different conditions: two different panels, two different boundary conditions, and different asymptotic flow velocities are considered.
