High-voltage cables, as applied in the electro-mobility, are highly complex structures regarding their vibration behaviour. The high complexity leads to considerable uncertainty in models for a finite element method (FEM) simulation, which is shown, for example, in the contact modelling between the strands of the cable. To handle this uncertainty and model the structural dynamic, a nonparametric probabilistic approach (NPPA) with random matrices is used for the first time on high-voltage cables. This novel application of NPPA has an advantage over typical FEM analysis by using a more manageable simulation model and eliminating the need for a complex deterministic simulation model. Initially, the NPPA is analysed and enhanced, with an optimization for the dispersion parameter and a frequency shift introduced as methodological improvements. These enhancements result in a comparable scatter band of the frequency response. Following preliminary studies, the cable's dynamic behaviour is examined through experimental modal analysis, after which the dispersion parameters are computed. The NPPA is then applied to the simplified deterministic model with the calculated dispersion parameters, and a Monte Carlo simulation is done. As a result of this simulation, a scatter band is given. The results from the simulation are then compared to the results of an experiment. It is shown that the frequency response from the experiment is almost always in the inner area of the scatter band. Consequently, this innovative method can be used for a risk evaluation according to the path of the frequency response function and an evaluation of the structural behaviour. |
