Dynamic Reliability Evaluation on Foundation of Stone Cutting Machine under Ambient Excitation by Jianjun Liu, Qiang Fu, Jiarui Shi, Xiao Li, Xueji Cai, Zilong Meng, Jiyi Mi

“…After getting the detected data, a fast identified process is available for fastly identifying the dynamic parameter foundation of stone cutting machine by using the peak-picking method, in which the natural frequency of foundation is able to be first identified by the equivalent frequency response function for the self-power spectrum of the foundation; subsequently, the damping ratio of the foundation, on the basis of the previous result of natural frequency, is identified by the half-power broadband technology; eventually, after obtaining these dynamic parameters identified, the failure probability of the foundation and its corresponding dynamic reliability index, under ambient excitation, is capable to be calculated based on the first-passage probability of the maximum response. …”
