Finite element modeling and updating for dynamic study of exhaust structure

Modal analysis is an approach to determine the dynamic behavior of a structure through numerical analysis or experimental approach. Nowadays, numerical analysis has been preferred by most researchers and engineers compared to experimental analysis to analyze the structure due to expenditure and time consuming factors of the research. Recently, numerical analysis is done computationally or well known as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) by using finite element (FE) model to replicate the real test structure. Instead of advantage of FE analysis, the trustworthiness of FE model has been questioned since simplification has been made during design stage for complex structure and inaccurate of geometry input of the model. Hence, this paper is carried out to reduce the discrepancies between numerical prediction results with measured test data on FE model of exhaust structure by implementing FE model updating using SOL200 algorithm. Initially, the FE model is running on normal mode analysis SOL103 to extract the modal parameters such as natural frequency and mode shape. Then, the numerical pre-diction result has been correlated and validated with measured test data obtained through Experimental Modal Analysis (EMA). Due to disagreement between numerical result and experimental data in correlation process, the FE model has been updated using SOL200 algorithm. The percentage error between numerical prediction result and measured test data is minimized from 5.67 to 3.23% after been updated. It’s shown the capability SOL200 algorithm in preparing the reliable FE model before been used for further analysis such as structural dynamic modification

Changes in oxidation indices and minor components of low free fatty acid and freshly extracted crude palm oils under two different storage conditions

This article reports on the changes of oxidation indices and minor components of low free fatty acid (FFA) and freshly extracted crude palm oils after storage at ambient (28 ± 1 C) and 60 C for 77 days. The changes in peroxide value (PV), FFA, extinction coefficient at 233 and 269 nm (K 233 and K 269), bleachability index (DOBI), carotene and vitamin E contents were monitored. PV, FFA, K 233 and K 269 of both oil samples increased as storage progressed while the values of carotene and vitamin E contents decreased. At the end of storage period at 60 °C, the carotene content of low FFA crude palm oil was 4.24 ppm. The storage conditions used led to the loss of entire vitamin E fractions of both oil samples as well as a reduction in DOBI values except for freshly extracted crude palm oil stored at ambient temperature
