본 연구에서는 실험적인 모우드해석법을 실제의 테니스 라켓에 적용하여 모우드파라미터를 구한 다음, 그 파라미터의 변화에 따르는 안정타점영역의 변화를 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해서 에측하였다. 또한 안정타점영역을 확장시키고 라켓의 동특성을 개선시킬 수 있는 모우드파라미터를 찾아서 라켓의 설계제작단계에 정보를 제공하는 테니스 라켓의 CAD(Computer Aided Design) 화를 위한 자료 획득을 목적으로 한다.
The dynamic characteristics of a tennis racket were identified by experimental modal analysis and the sweet spot due to these was calculated. A tennis racket was selected as a model reference and modal parameters of the racket were estimated from the transfer function measured by experiment. The transfer function was reconstructed by the modified modal parameters on the assumption that the racket was locally modified, for example, a change in the material of the frame and the attachment of a damping material to the grip. The change of the dynamic characteristics, especially natural frequency and magnitude of the second and the third vibrational modes, were evaluated from the reconstructed transfer function. The change of the sweet spot due to the modified modal parameters was estimated and visualized through computer graphic simulation by the criterion of the sweet spot measured before structural modification. The modal parameters for improvement of the dynamic characteristics.
