Abstract Modern computers are generally equipped with multi-core central processing units (CPUs). There has been great interest to introduce a parallelized harmonic balance method to make full use of computing resources and improve the efficiency in dealing with nonlinear dynamic analysis of high-dimensional spatially discretized models of continuous systems. In this work, an optimized efficient Galerkin averaging-incremental harmonic balance method for solving high-dimensional models of continuous systems based on parallel computing is introduced. Optimized parallel implementation based on tensor contraction is introduced in time-domain series calculations and the quasi-Newton method is used in the iteration procedure, which greatly accelerate computational speeds of both serial and parallel implementations. Especially, the parallel implementation achieves high parallel efficiency when multiple CPU cores are used. Due to its high computational efficiency and good robustness, the proposed method has the potential to be used as a powerful universal solver and analyzer for general types of continuous systems.

The study of the nonlinear dynamic behaviour of friction systems in general and of clutch systems in particular remains an open problem. Noise and vibrations induced by friction in the sliding phase of a clutch are very sensitive to design parameters. The latter have significant dispersions. In the study of the system stability, the problem is not only to know if the parameter values lead to the appearance of unstable equilibrium points; the real challenge lies in estimating the vibration levels when such unstable equilibrium points occur. This estimation is analyzed using the limit cycles. This article aims to study the ability of robust approaches based on developments in nonintrusive generalized polynomial chaos and a constrained harmonic balance method to estimate the vibration levels through the limit cycles of a clutch system in the presence of uncertainty. The purpose is to provide a low-cost, high precision approach, compared to the classic Monte Carlo method.

This study presents the nonlinear vibration and chaotic response of a beam subjected to harmonic excitation. The multi-level residue harmonic balance method is applied to solve the geometrically cubic nonlinear vibration of the simply supported beam. The obtained results agree well with those of the numerical integration method. The amplitude frequency response curves are presented to illustrate the nonlinear dynamic system response both for a damping and without damping model. Also, the chaotic response is examined for a simply supported beam with a nonlinear dynamic system.

Vibratory feeder is known as one of major machines in various industries. The feeding parts in a vibratory feeder are experiencing repeated discontinuous friction that can be considered as a typical strong nonlinear dynamic problem. It is very significant to obtain the motion of parts under different alternating loads for the design of vibratory feeder. An analytical model of parts’ motion in sliding regime was constructed and verified with a simplified model based on discrete element method. An improved increment harmonic balance method was proposed to obtain the dynamic behaviors of vibratory feeder and the motion of feeding parts. In contrast to previous researches, we considered the interactions between vibratory feeder and parts in detail, not only containing the effects of the dynamics of vibratory feeder on the motion of parts but also the motion of parts on vibratory feeder. Finally, studying the interactions for various parts’ masses in different frequencies, the motion of parts had a significant effect on the dynamics of vibratory feeder. In reverse, the alterations of the dynamics of vibratory feeder influenced the motion of parts and conveying speed. In the design of vibratory feeder, the interactions between vibratory feeder and parts should not be neglected.

Physical driveline systems have inherent nonlinearities such as multiple piecewise linear springs, gear backlashes, and drag torques. The multi-staged clutch dampers, in particular, cause severe problems in simulating the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of multi-degree-of-freedom systems. In order to analyze the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of the system, the harmonic balance method has been employed. This study suggests a method to overcome the convergence problems with strong nonlinearities by employing two distinct smoothening factors for stiffness and hysteresis. First, the dynamic behaviors of the multi-degree-of-freedom torsional system are investigated by employing multi-staged clutch dampers subjected to a sinusoidal excitation. Second, the effects of system parameters are examined with respect to dynamic characteristics of torsional vibration. The regimes of resonance frequencies along with the relevant parameters of the system are investigated by calculating backbone curves, which reduce the calculation time significantly. In order to validate harmonic balance method simulation, the simulated results are compared with those of numerical simulation. Harmonic balance method is shown to be more efficient than numerical simulation in calculating the nonlinear frequency response, as well as in simulating the steady-state responses without transient response effect.
