We study the motion which results when a fluid film is squeezed between two parallel plane surfaces in relative motion. Particular attention is given to the special case where one surface is fixed and the other is rapidly accelerated from a state of rest to a state of uniform motion. The analysis is based in part on linear theory and in substance on a finite-difference analysis of the full nonlinear equations of motion.

This paper is concerned with the motion of a fluid film squeezed between two rotating parallel plane surfaces. Attention is given to the case of impulsive squeezing and impulsive rotation. Approximate analytic solutions are obtained and a numerical solution to the full nonlinear equations of motion is presented. The results show that the centrifugal inertial forces increase the radial outflow and reduce considerably the load capacity while the noncentrifugal inertial forces increase the torque.

Special Case

Orthotropic, polymeric tubes subjected to internal pressure may undergo large deformations while maintaining linear moment-curvature behavior. Such tubes are modeled herein as inertialess, elastic cantilever beams (the elastica) with a payload mass at the tip and with internal pressure as the eccentric tip follower loading that drives the configurations through large deformations. From the nonlinear equations of motion, dynamic beam trajectories are calculated over a range of system parameters for the special case of a point mass at the tip and a terminated ramp pressure loading. The dynamic responses, which are unique because the loading history and the range of motion are fully defined, are presented in nondimensional form and are compared to static responses presented in a companion study. These results are applicable to the dynamic design of high flexure, tube-type, robotic manipulator arms.

This article details a scheme for evaluating the stability of motions of a system consisting of a rigid body connected at one point to a rotating arm. The nonlinear equations of motion for the system are formulated, and a method for finding exact solutions representing motions that resemble a state of rest is presented. The equations are then linearized and roots of the eigensystem are classified and used to construct stability diagrams that facilitate the assessment of effects of varying the body's mass properties and system geometry, changing the position of the attachment joint, and adding energy dissipation in the joint.

In this paper, the combined effects of turbulence and fluid film inertia on the dynamic behavior of an unbalanced rigid shaft supported horizontally on two identical aligned short journal bearings are investigated theoretically and experimentally. Utilizing analytical expressions for the dynamic fluid film force components considering the effects of turbulence and fluid film inertia, the nonlinear equations of motion for the rotor-bearing systems are solved by the improved Euler’s forward integration method. The journal center trajectories with unbalance eccentricity ratio of εμ = 0, 0.1 and 0.2 are examined theoretically for Reynolds number of Re = 2750, 4580, and 5500, and the theoretical results are compared with experimental results. From the theoretical and experimental results, it was found that the fluid film inertia improves the stability of unbalanced rigid shaft under certain operating conditions.

Special Case

Silverman's game on intervals was analyzed in a special case by Evans, and later more extensively by Heuer and Leopold-Wildburger, who found that optimal strategies exist (and gave them) quite generally when the intervals have no endpoints in common. They exist in about half the parameter plane when the intervals have a left endpoint or a right endpoint, but not both, in common, and (as Evans had earlier found) exist only on a set of measure zero in this plane if the intervals are identical. The game of Double-Silver, where each player has its own threshold and penalty, is examined. There are several combinations of conditions on relative placement of the intervals, the thresholds and penalties under which optimal strategies exist and are found. The indications are that in the other cases no optimal strategies exist.

Energy Interchange

The free motion of an undamped pendulum-type vibration absorber is studied on the basis of approximate nonlinear equations of motion. It is shown that this type of mechanical system exhibits the phenomenon of auto parametric excitation; a type of “instability” which cannot be accounted for on the basis of the linearized system. Complete energy transfer between modes is shown to occur when the beam frequency is twice the simple pendulum frequency. On the basis of a numerical solution, approximately 150 cycles of the beam oscillation take place during a single cycle of energy interchange.

In the field of port design there is a need for a reliable but time-efficient method to assess the behavior of moored ships in order to determine if further detailed analysis of the behavior is required. The response of moored ships induced by gusting wind and/or waves is dynamic. Excessive motion response may cause interruption of the (un)loading operation. High line tension may cause lines to snap, introducing dangerous situations. A (detailed) Dynamic Mooring Analysis (DMA), however, is often a time-consuming and expensive exercise, especially when responses in many different environmental conditions need to be assessed. Royal HaskoningDHV has developed a time-efficient computational tool in-house to assess the wave (sea or swell) induced dynamic response of ships moored to exposed berths. The mooring line characteristics are linearized and the equations of motion are solved in the frequency domain with both the 1st and 2nd wave forces taken into account. This tool has been termed Less=Moor. The accuracy and reliability of the computational tool has been illustrated by comparing motions and mooring line forces to results obtained with software that solves the nonlinear equations of motion in the time domain (aNySIM). The calculated response of a Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) moored to dolphins located offshore has been presented. The results show a good comparison. The computational tool can therefore be used to indicate whether the wave induced response of ships moored at exposed berths proves to be critical. The next step is to make this tool suitable to assess the dynamic response of moored ships with large wind areas, e.g. container ships, cruise vessels, RoRo or car carriers, to gusting wind. In addition, assessment of ship responses in a complicated wave field (e.g. with reflected infra-gravity waves) also requires more research effort.
