This part provides a comprehensive account of the main theorems and mechanisms developed in the literature concerning friction-induced noise and vibration. Some of these mechanisms are based on experimental investigations for classical models. Bilinear and nonlinear dynamical models have been considered to explain such friction phenomena as stick-slip, chatter, squeal, and chaos. Nonlinear modeling includes two types of nonlinearities which differ from those encountered in structural dynamics. These nonlinearities, in addition to the observed uncertainty of friction between sliding surfaces, form a formidable difficulty in developing accurate and reliable modeling. They include the inherent nonlinearity of contact forces (eg, Hertzian contact), and the nonlinear relationship between friction and sliding relative velocity. Research activities in this area are a mixture of theoretical, numerical, and experimental investigations. Theoretical investigations are prevailed by deterministic analysis with few attempts of stochastic treatment. The models include classical and practical engineering models such as the mass-spring model sliding on a running belt or on a surface with Hertzian contact, a pin sliding on a rotating disk, beams with friction boundaries, turbine blades, water-lubricated bearings, wheel-rail systems, disc brake systems and machine cutting tools. There is a strong need for further research to promote our understanding of the various friction mechanisms and to provide designers of sliding components with better guidelines to minimize the deteriorating effects of friction.

Vibration properties of most assembled mechanical systems depend on frictional damping in joints. The nonlinear transfer behavior of the frictional interfaces often provides the dominant damping mechanism in a built-up structure and plays an important role in the vibratory response of the structure. For improving the performance of systems, many studies have been carried out to predict, measure, and/or enhance the energy dissipation of friction. This article reviews approaches for describing the nonlinear transfer behavior of bolted joint connections. It gives an overview of modeling issues. The models include classical and practical engineering models. Constitutive and phenomenological friction models describing the nonlinear transfer behavior of joints are discussed. The models deal with the inherent nonlinearity of contact forces (eg, Hertzian contact), and the nonlinear relationship between friction and relative velocity in the friction interface. The research activities in this area are a combination of theoretical, numerical, and experimental investigations. Various solution techniques commonly applied to friction-damped systems are presented and discussed. Recent applications are outlined with regard to the use of joints as semi-active damping devices for vibration control. Several application areas for friction damped systems due to mechanical joints and connections like shells and beams with friction boundaries are presented. This review article includes 134 references.

Abstract Labyrinth seals are used to prevent and control the mass flow rate between rotating components. Due to thermally and mechanically induced expansions during operation and transient flight maneuvers, a contact, the so-called rubbing process, between rotor and stator cannot be excluded. A large amount of rubbing process data concerning numerical and experimental investigations is available in public literature as well as at the Institute of Thermal Turbomachinery (ITS). The investigations were carried out for different operating conditions, material combinations, and component geometries. In combination with the experiments presented in this paper, the effects of the different variables on load due to rubbing are compared, and discussed with the focus lying on the material combination. The influence of the material on the loads can be identified as detailed as never before. For example, the contact forces in the current experiments are higher due to a higher temperature resistance of Young’s modulus. The analysis will also be based on the rubbing of turbine blades. Design guidelines are derived for labyrinth seals with improved properties regarding tolerance of rub events. Based on the knowledge obtained, guidelines for designing reliable labyrinth seals for future engines are discussed.

Violent drillstring vibrations in a well should be suppressed to prevent premature failure of the drillstring parts and borehole wall and enhance the drilling process. This paper presents novel centralized impact dampers and torsional vibration dampers for lateral and torsional stick–slip vibration suppression which will function well in the harsh environment in the well due to their all-metal construction. A drillstring vibration model is used in this paper to simulate coupled lateral and torsional vibrations of the drillstring with impact and torsional dampers installed in the drill collar (DC). The high-fidelity model utilizes Timoshenko beam finite elements (FEs) and includes stress-stiffening effects to account for the gravity and axial loading effect on the transverse string stiffness. The rotational motions of the impactors result from dry friction tangential contact forces that occur when they contact the DC or sub. The tangential forces utilize a nonlinear Hertzian contact restoring force and a nonlinear, viscous contact damping force, in place of the typical coefficient of restitution (COR) model that cannot provide the required normal and tangential contact forces. The primary conclusions drawn from the simulation results are: (1) both the lateral vibration of the drillstring that is close to the bending critical speeds and the vibration induced by destabilizing forces can be suppressed by impact dampers and (2) the torsional stick–slip motion of the drillstring can be mitigated by the torsional damper.

The vibration amplitudes of bladed disk assemblies can be reduced significantly by means of friction damping devices such as shrouds, damping wires and interblade friction dampers. In practice, interblade friction dampers are applied in rotating arrangements with various geometries showing curved or flat surfaces like so-called wedge-shaped dampers. This paper is focusing on a computation method to predict the dynamical behaviour of turbine blades with friction dampers including both, curved and wedge-shaped dampers with Hertzian and non-Hertzian contact conditions, respectively. The presented computation method uses a 3D contact model to calculate the contact forces, including normal and tangential stiffnesses, roughness and microslip effects. The relative displacements in the contact area can be expressed by means of 6 DOF of the blade platforms and 6 rigid body DOF of the damper including translational and rotational displacements. The relative displacement of the friction damper with respect to the adjacent blades can be derived from the contact kinematics of the blade-damper-blade system and the equations of motion of the friction damper. Thus, the model can be applied to investigate spatial motions of the bladed disk assembly including bending and torsional vibrations. A comparison of different friction damper designs with respect to an optimal damper geometry and damper mass is presented. The advantages and disadvantages of each design will be discussed. Experimental results are shown to validate the developed computation method.

Summary Most drill-collar-connection failures are attributed to cumulative fatigue caused by bending vibration. An important class of bending vibration is whirl, which is formed by the eccentricity of the rotational drill collar. The contact between the drill collar and the borehole causes extreme harmful backward whirl, even chaotic whirl. A two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear lumped-mass model is used to represent the drill collar in whirl. Unlike other studies, the stick/slip vibration causing fluctuation of rotary speed is taken into account. In this lumped-element model, the contact forces obey the Hertzian contact law, which leads to lateral bounce of the drill collar and affects the borehole wall chaotically. The modified Karnopp friction model is adopted to simulate the stick/slip rotary vibration of the bottomhole assembly (BHA). On the basis of the time-domain responses of whirl, the continuous-bending-stress history is broken down into individual stress ranges with an associated number of stress cycles using the rainflow-counting method. The cumulative fatigue damage is estimated using Miner's rule. The conclusion of this paper indicates that chaotic lateral vibration and fatigue damage happen at a lower rotational speed than previously reported.

Experimental investigations of wind turbine blades having NACA airfoils 0021 and 4412 with and without tubercles on the leading edge have been performed in a wind tunnel. It was found that the lift coefficient of the airfoil 0021 with tubercles was higher at Re = 1.2×105 and 1.69×105 in post critical region (at higher angle of attach) than airfoils without tubercles but this difference relatively diminished at higher Reynolds numbers and beyond indicating that there is no effect on the lift coefficients of airfoils with tubercles at higher Reynolds numbers whereas drag coefficient remains unchanged. It is noted that at Re = 1.69×105, the lift coefficient of airfoil without tubercles drops from 0.96 to 0.42 as the angle of attack increases from 15° to 20° which is about 56% and the corresponding values of lift coefficient for airfoil with tubercles are 0.86 and 0.7 at respective angles with18% drop.

This paper gives an overview about problems of modeling of piezo-actuated stick-slip micro-drives. It has been found that existing prototypes of such devices have been investigated empirically. There is only few research dealing with the theory behind this kind of drives. By analyzing the current research activities in this field, it is believed that the model of the drive depends strongly on the friction models, but in most cases neglecting any influences of the guilding system.These analyses are of fundamental importance for an integrated model combining friction model and mechanical model offering promising possibilities for future research.

The impacts of unsteady flow research activities on flow simulation methods used in the turbine design process are assessed. Results from experimental investigations that identify the impact of periodic unsteadiness on the time-averaged flows in turbines and results from numerical simulations obtained by using three-dimensional unsteady Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes indicate that some of the unsteady flow features can be fairly accurately predicted. Flow parameters that can be modeled with existing steady CFD codes are distinguished from those that require unsteady codes.

Natural fractures (NFs) have been recognized as the dominant factors that increase hydraulic fracture complexity and reservoir productivity. However, the interactions between hydraulic and natural fractures are far from being fully understood. In this study, a two-dimensional numerical model based on the displacement discontinuity method (DDM) has been developed and used to investigate the interaction between hydraulic and pre-existing natural fractures. The inelastic deformation, e.g., stick, slip and separation, of the geologic discontinuities is captured by a special friction joint element called Mohr-Coulomb joint element. The dynamic stress transfer mechanisms between the two fracture systems and the possible location of secondary tensile fracture that reinitiates along the opposite sides of the NF are discussed. Furthermore, the model results are validated by a series of large tri-axial hydraulic fracture (HF) tests. Both experimental and numerical results showed that the displacements and stresses along the NFs are all in highly dynamic changes. When the HF is approaching the NF, the HF tip can exert remote compressional and shear stresses on the NF interface, which results in the debonding of the NF. The location and value of the evoked stress is a function of the far-field horizontal differential stress, inclination angle of the NF, and the net pressure used in fracturing. For a small approaching angle, the stress peak is located farther away from the intersection point, so an offset fracture is more likely to be generated. The cemented strength of the NF also has an important influence on the interaction mechanism. Weakly bonded NF surfaces increase the occurrence of a shear slippage, but for a moderate strength NF, the hybrid failure model with both tensile and shear failures, and conversion may appear.
