Modeling Systems from Measurements of their Frequency ResponseJanuary 2012 (has links)
The problem of modeling systems from frequency response measurements is of interest to many engineers. In electronics, we wish to construct a macromodel from tabulated impedance, admittance or scattering parameters to incorporate it into a circuit simulator for performing circuit analyses. Structural engineers employ frequency response functions to determine the natural frequencies and damping coefficients of the underlying structure. Subspace identification, popular among control engineers, and vector fitting, used by electronics engineers, are examples of algorithms developed for this problem. This thesis has three goals. 1. For multi-port devices, currently available algorithms arc expensive. This thesis therefore proposes an approach based on the Loewner matrix pencil constructed in the context of tangential interpolation with several possible implementations. They are fast, accurate, build low dimensional models, and are especially designed for a large number of terminals. For noise-free data, they identify the underlying system, rather than merely fitting the measurements. For noisy data, their performance is analyzed for different noise levels introduced in the measurements and an improved version, which identifies an approximation of the original system even for large noise values, is proposed. 2. This thesis addresses the problem of generating parametric models from measurements performed with respect to the frequency, but also with respect to one or more design parameters, which could relate to geometry or material properties. These models are suited for performing optimization over the design variables. The proposed approach generalizes the Loewner matrix to data depending on two variables. 3. This thesis analyzes the convergence properties of vector fitting, an iterative algorithm that relocates the poles of the model, given some "starting poles" chosen heuristically. It was recognized as a reformulation of the Sanathanan-Koerner iteration and several authors attempted to improve its convergence properties, but a thorough convergence analysis has been missing. Numerical examples show that for high signal to noise ratios, the iteration is convergent, while for low ones, it may diverge. Hence, incorporating a Newton step aims at making the iteration always convergent for "starting poles" chosen close to the solution. A connection between vector fitting and the Loewner framework is exhibited, which resolves the issue of choosing the starting poles.

Numerical calculation of dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients of oil lubrication film in internal gear motors and pumpsHoa, Pham Trong, Hung, Nguyen Manh 25 June 2020 (has links)
Oil lubrication film plays an important role in analysis of dynamic behavior of the internal gear motors and pumps. During operation, the oil film is considered as the spring and damping system. Therefore, calculation of the dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients is necessary to build the mathematical model for studying of dynamic problem. In order to calculate these coefficients, the dynamic pressure and perturbing pressure distribution must be determined firstly. In this paper, the infinitesimal perturbation method (IFP) is used to calculate the dynamic pressure distribution. Based on that the dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients can be computed. The calculation results point out that the dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients are much dependent on the eccentricity ratio.
