Generalized Harmonic Balance Method

Abstract Steady state solutions for nonlinear dynamic problems are interesting because (1) the long time behaviors of many problems are of practical concern, and, (2) these behaviors are often difficult to predict. This paper first presents a brief description of a generalized harmonic balance method (GHB) for steady state solutions to nonlinear problems via a nonlinear oscillator problem with a quadratic nonlinearity. Using this approach, steady state solutions are obtained for problems with several parameters: damping, nonlinearity and frequency (subharmonic, superharmonic and primary resonance). These results, plotted in time evolution curves and phase diagrams are compared with those obtained by numerically integrating the original differential equations. The effect of initial conditions on long time solutions is discussed. This investigation indicates that (1) the GHB steady state is an excellent approximate solution to that of the original equation if such a solution is numerically stable, and (2) the GHB steady state simply indicates a region of instability when the numerical solution to the original equation, using a point in that region as the initial point, is unstable.

AbstractThe exact analytical expression of the period of a conservative nonlinear oscillator with a non-polynomial potential, is obtained. Such an oscillatory system corresponds to the transverse vibration of a particle attached to the center of a stretched elastic wire. The result is given in terms of elliptic functions and validates the approximate formulae derived from various approximation procedures as the harmonic balance method and the rational harmonic balance method usually implemented for solving such a nonlinear problem.

Generalized Harmonic Balance Method

In this work, the effect of a crack on the vibrational properties of a shaft-disc system has been studied applying a generalized harmonic balance method. In the reviewed literature, the reported methods to find the unbalance response of a continuous shaft-disc system provide only the first harmonic component of the response; whereas, the presented method gives the super-harmonic components as well. The shaft-disk system consists of a flexible shaft with a single rigid disc mounted on rigid short bearing supports. The shaft contains a transverse breathing crack (fatigue crack). The main concept for crack detection in vibration-based methods is basically the investigation of crack-induced changes in the selected vibrational properties. Shaft critical speeds and harmonic and super-harmonic components of the unbalance lateral response have been used as typical vibrational properties for crack detection in a rotating shaft system. A generalized harmonic balance method has been developed to efficiently investigate changes in vibrational properties due to the effect of crack properties, depth and location. The results of the developed analytical model have been compared with those obtained from the finite element model and close agreement has been observed.

Many rotor assemblies of industrial turbomachines are supported by oil-lubricated bearings. It is well known that the operation safety of these machines is highly dependent on rotors whose stability is closely related to the whirling motion of lubricant oil. In this paper, the problem of transverse motion of rotor systems considering bearing nonlinearity is revisited. A symmetric, rigid Jeffcott rotor is modeled considering unbalanced mass and short bearing forces. A semi-analytical, seminumerical approach is presented based on the generalized harmonic balance method (GHBM) and the Newton–Raphson iteration scheme. The external load of the system is decomposed into a Fourier series with multiple harmonic loads. The amplitude and phase with respect to each harmonic load are solved iteratively. The stability of the motion response is analyzed through identification of eigenvalues at the fixed point mapped from the linearized system using harmonic amplitudes. The solutions of the present approach are compared to those from time-domain numerical integrations using the Runge–Kutta method, and they are found to be in good agreement for stable periodic motions. It is revealed through bifurcation analysis that evolution of the motion in the nonlinear rotor-bearing system is complicated. The Hopf bifurcation (HB) of synchronous vibration initiates oil whirl with varying mass eccentricity. The onset of oil whip is identified when the saddle-node bifurcation of subsynchronous vibration takes place at the critical value of parameter.

Generalized Harmonic Balance Method

In this paper, asymmetric periodic motions in a periodically forced, softening Duffing oscillator are presented analytically through the generalized harmonic balance method. For the softening Duffing oscillator, the symmetric periodic motions with jumping phenomena were understood very well. However, asymmetric periodic motions in the softening Duffing oscillators are not investigated analytically yet, and such asymmetric periodic motions possess much richer dynamics than the symmetric motions in the softening Duffing oscillator. For asymmetric motions, the bifurcation tree from asymmetric period-1 motions to chaos is discussed comprehensively. The corresponding, unstable and stable, asymmetric and symmetric, periodic motions in the softening Duffing oscillator are presented, and numerical illustrations of stable and unstable periodic motions are completed. This investigation provides a better picture of complex motion in the softening Duffing oscillator.

Generalized Harmonic Balance Method

In this paper, the generalized harmonic balance method is presented for approximate, analytical solutions of periodic motions in nonlinear dynamical systems. The nonlinear damping, periodically forced, Duffing oscillator is studied as a sample problem. The approximate, analytical solution of period-1 periodic motion of such an oscillator is obtained by the generalized harmonic balance method. The stability and bifurcation analysis of the HB2 approximate solution of period-1 motions in the forced Duffing oscillator is carried out, and the parameter map for such HB2 solutions is achieved. Numerical illustrations of period-1 motions are presented. Similarly, the same ideas can be extended to period- k motions in such an oscillator. The methodology presented in this paper can be applied to other nonlinear vibration systems, which are independent of small parameters.
