With the increase of the span and height of modern engineering structures, the design complexity of the cable structure is constantly increasing, whose dynamic problem has become the key to structural design, performance monitoring and maintenance, and vibration control. Therefore, it is necessary to study and develop a new dynamic analysis theory for complex cable system with higher calculation accuracy and efficiency to meet the requirements of exact analysis of engineering structures. In view of this, a novel dynamic analysis method for shallow sagged cable system is proposed in this paper based on the dynamic stiffness method. Since the derivation process is given in analytical form, the calculation accuracy and efficiency are promoted greatly. The numerical cases are used to verify the accuracy of the proposed dynamic analysis method, meanwhile, the simulation results show that the proposed method can overcome the "root missing" phenomenon when solving the frequency equation by the existing analytical method.

With the increase of the span and height of modern engineering structures, the design length of engineering cables is increasing while the structural form is becoming more complicated, whose dynamic problem has become the key to structural design, performance monitoring and maintenance and vibration control. Therefore, it is necessary to study and develop a unified dynamic analysis theory for complex cable system with high calculation accuracy and efficiency to meet the requirements of exact analysis of engineering structures. In view of this, a unified dynamic analysis method for shallow sagged cable system is proposed in this paper based on the dynamic stiffness method. Since the derivation process is given in analytical form, the calculation accuracy and efficiency are promoted greatly. Full-scale cable test and numerical cases are used to verify the accuracy of the proposed method. Results show that the proposed method is in good agreement with the measured results and can effectively overcome the “root-missing” phenomenon existing in conventional iteration methods when solving the transcendental frequency equation.

Based on requirements of pipe transport systems on deepwater pipelaying vessel, a new pipe lifting mechanism was designed. It was composed of crank-rocker and rocker-slider mechanism with good lifting capacity and high efficiency. When the slider went to the upper limit position, the mechanism could approximatively dwell, meeting the requirement for transverse conveyor operation. According to the theory of dynamics, numerical analysis method was used to the dynamic analysis of the mechanism. The results showed the maximum counterforce was at the joint between the rocker and ground, and this calculation could be a guideline for the kinematic pair structure designing.

Abstract This paper presents an efficient extension of Rosenthal’s order-n algorithm for multibody systems containing closed loops. Closed topological loops are handled by cut joint technique. Violation of the kinematic constraint equations of cut joints is corrected by Baumgarte’s constraint violation stabilization method. A reliable approach for selecting the parameters used in the constraint stabilization method is proposed. Dynamic analysis of a slider crank mechanism is carried out to demonstrate efficiency of the proposed method.

Abstract Many studies have been performed to analyze the natural frequency of beams undergoing both flexural and torsional loading. For example, Adam (1999) analyzed a beam with open cross-sections under forced vibration. Although the exact natural frequency equation is available in literature (Lumsdaine et al), to the authors’ knowledge, a beam with an intermediate mass and support has not been considered. The models are then compared with an approximate closed form solution for the natural frequency. The closed form equation is developed using energy methods. Results show that the closed form equation is within 2% percent when compared to the transcendental natural frequency equation.
