Abstract
To study the nonlinear characteristics of the modal recognition of civil engineering parameters, a method of nonlinear recognition of the parameters of characteristics based on LMD is proposed. The LMD method is applied to decompose the acceleration response signals of the disturbing structure of the building, to obtain the PF components, the instantaneous frequency, and the instantaneous amplitude of each PF component, to determine the modal natural frequency and damping coefficient. To determine the modal parameter based on the LMD, the calculation and analysis results are presented as follows: the frequency of the components fluctuates between the fifth and sixth models, which shows that the components contain the reaction of the fifth and sixth design modes. This is because these two modes (3.101 Hz and 3.147 Hz) are very close to each other, which makes it difficult to distinguish between the responses of these two modes by the LMD method. The frequency of the components is always stable (the first 2.5 s), which indicates that during this period the responses of modes 5e and 6e do not dampen, and the ratio between them in the PF1 components does not differ much. The component frequency curve shows an interesting phenomenon. Starting from about 3.8 s, the frequency curve gradually approaches the first mode, and only the frequency of the first mode is about 6 s, which indicates that the response of the first mode still exists and makes up a significant proportion. Modular response, caused by the damping, is only detected in the first half of the 10 s response, after which it is verified from the nonlinear characteristics of the LMD parameter recognition method that half of the third-order modal response on the scale is very low and almost equal to zero, and despite problems with dense frequency separation mode in the LMD method, the frequency responses of its PF components may reflect the mode combination phenomenon and reflect the duration of each mode throughout the response.
