This paper predicts transverse vibration and stability of a rotating circular plate subjected to stationary, in-plane, concentrated edge loads. First of all, the equation of motion is discretized in a plate-based coordinate system resulting in a set of coupled Hill’s equations. Through use of the method of multiple scales, stability of the rotating plate is predicted in closed form in terms of the rotational speed and the in-plane edge loads. The asymmetric membrane stresses resulting from the stationary in-plane edge loads will transversely excite the rotating plates to single-mode parametric resonances as well as combination resonances at supercritical speed. In addition, introduction of plate damping will suppress the parametric instability when normalized edge loads are small. Moreover, the radial in-plane edge load dominates the rotational speed at which the instability occurs, and the tangential in-plane edge load dominates the width of the instability zones.

Abstract Principal parametric resonances of elastic plates actuated by periodic in-plane stresses effected by embedded piezoelectric wires are investigated to describe the morphing scenarios of flexible, ultra-lightweight panels. A mechanical model of elastic plate including geometric nonlinearities and the parametric actuation provided by the piezoelectric wires, is adopted to formulate the nonlinear equation of motion. A bifurcation analysis is carried out by means of an asymptotic approach based on the method of multiple scales leading to a comprehensive parametric study on the effect of the wires width on the morphing regions (i.e., parametric instability regions) associated with the principal parametric resonances. The threshold voltages triggering the onset of the principal parametric resonances of the lowest three symmetric modes are also calculated as a function of the wires size so as to determine the voltage requirements for the morphing activation.

This paper is to demonstrate that axisymmetric plate damping will suppress unbounded response of a stationary, elastic, circular plate excited by a rotating slider. Use of the method of multiple scales shows that the axisymmetric plate damping will suppress parametric resonances excited by slider stiffness and slider inertia at supercritical speed. In addition, the plate damping will increase the onset speed above which slider damping destabilizes the elastic circular plate. Moreover, numerical examples show that the plate damping could stabilize the plate/slider system at discrete rotation speeds above the onset speed.

This paper studies nonlinear transverse vibrations of spinning disks with nonconstant spinning rate. Here the angular speed of the disk is characterized as a small, periodic perturbation superimposed upon a constant speed. Due to this perturbation in angular speed, nonautonomous terms appear in the equation of motion, which results in the existence of parametric instability. In this paper, Galerkin’s method is first applied to yield a discretized system, and the method of multiple scales is used to obtain periodic solutions. All types of possible resonant combinations are investigated, and numerical results are shown for a simple harmonic speed perturbation.

In this work a novel pneumatic artificial muscle is fabricated using golden muga silk and silicon rubber. It is assumed that the muscle force is a quadratic function of pressure. Here a single degree of freedom system is considered where a mass is supported by a spring-damper-and pneumatically actuated muscle. While the spring-mass damper is a passive system, the addition of pneumatic muscle makes the system active. The dynamic analysis of this system is carried out by developing the equation of motion which contains multi-frequency excitations with both forced and parametric excitations. Using method of multiple scales the reduced equations are developed for simple and principal parametric resonance conditions. The time response obtained using method of multiple scales have been compared with those obtained by solving the original equation of motion numerically. Using both time response and phase portraits, variation of few systems parameters have been carried out. This work may find application in developing wearable device and robotic device for rehabilitation purpose.

Bio-MEMS/NEMS resonator sensors near twice natural frequency for mass detection are investigated. Electrostatic force along with fringe correction and Casimir effect are included in the model. They introduce parametric nonlinear terms in the system. The partial-differential equation of motion of the system is solved by using the method of multiple scales. A direct approach of the problem is then used. Two approximation problems resulting from the direct approach are solved. Phase-amplitude relationship is obtained. Numerical results for uniform electrostatically actuated micro resonator sensors are reported.

This paper deals with two frequency parametric excitation in presence of internal resonance. The cubic nonlinearity is inserted into the equation of motion by considering the mid-line stretching of the beam. The perturbation method of multiple scales is applied directly to the governing nonlinear fourth order integro-partial differential equation of motion. This leads to a set of first order differential equations known as the reduced equations or normalized reduced equations, which are utilized to determine the additional instability zones, appeared in the trivial state stability plot, the bifurcation and stability of fixed-points, periodic, quasi-periodic, mixed mode and chaotic responses. The transition of system behaviour from stable periodic to unstable chaotic occurs through intermittency route

This paper deals with two different methods to analyze the amplitude frequency response of an electrostatically actuated micro resonator. The methods used in this paper are the method of multiple scales, which is an analytical method with one mode of vibration. The other method is based on system of odes which is derived using the partial differential equation of motion, as well as the boundary conditions. This system is then solved using a built in matlab function known as BVP4C. Results are then shown comparing the two methods, under a variety of parameters, including the influence of damping, voltage, and fringe.

The parametric instability of planetary gears having elastic continuum ring gears is analytically investigated based on a hybrid continuous-discrete model. Mesh stiffness variations of the sun-planet and ring-planet meshes caused by the changing number of teeth in contact are the source of parametric instability. The natural frequencies of the time invariant system are either distinct or degenerate with multiplicity two, which indicates three types of combination instabilities: distinct-distinct, distinct-degenerate and degenerate-degenerate instabilities. By using the structured modal properties of planetary gears and the method of multiple scales, the instability boundaries are obtained as simple expressions in terms of mesh parameters. Instability existence rules for in-phase planet meshes are given. The instability boundaries are validated numerically.

This paper reports the case of internal resonance three-to-one with frequency of excitation near natural frequency in the case of bending vibrations of nonuniform cantilever with small damping. The case of nonlinear curvature, moderately large amplitudes, is considered. The method of multiple scales is applied directly to the nonlinear partial-differential equation of motion and boundary conditions. The phase-amplitude equations are analytically determined. Steady-state response is reported.

With the increasing requirement of quiet electrical machines in the civil and defense industry, it is very significant and necessary to predict the vibration and noise characteristics of stator and rotor in the early conceptual phase. Therefore, the combined internal and principal parametric resonances of a stator system excited by radial electromagnetic force are presented in this paper. The stator structure is modeled as a continuum double-shell system which is loaded by a varying distributed electromagnetic load. The nonlinear dynamic equations are derived and solved by the method of multiple scales. The influences of mechanical and electromagnetic parameters on resonance characteristics are illustrated by the frequency-response curves. Furthermore, the Runge-Kutta method is adopted to numerically analyze steady-state response for the further understanding of the resonance characteristics with different parameters.
