Dynamic Characteristics Analysis and Finite Element Simulation of an Ancient Timber Building under Environmental Excitation

This study investigates the vibration response and dynamic characteristics of the Shigudeng Pavilion under environmental excitation, employing a comprehensive approach that includes vibration response measurements, theoretical analysis, and finite element numerical simulation. An in-depth examination of the appearance and stress status of the Shigudeng Pavilion in Yao Ancient Village in southern Hunan was conducted, and the horizontal acceleration of different floors of the pavilion under environmental excitation was ascertained through field measurements. The NExT-ERA method was utilized to identify the modal parameters (frequency, damping ratio, and vibration pattern) of the measured timber construction. Subsequently, a finite element analysis model of the ancient timber building was developed and refined using ANSYS Workbench finite element software. This study proposes a specific repair plan addressing apparent defects and structural damage in the measured ancient timber building, offering theoretical and technical references for the conservation and repair of similar structures.
