Determination of Local Structural Vibration Properties For the Design of Machine Foundations
Publication: Structures Congress 2005: Metropolis and Beyond
Abstract
The identification of vibration properties for individual structural members of tabletop-type turbine-generator foundations is discussed. A procedure is outlined for the accurate determination of local natural frequencies using the harmonic analysis technique. Case studies are presented which involve applications of the proposed approach to the design of large steam-turbine-generator foundations.
