The effect of static friction on the design of flexible blade-to-ground vibration dampers used in gas turbine engines is investigated. It is found that for γ (ratio of dynamic and static friction coefficients) less than 1, the steady-state response is essentially harmonic when the damper slip load, S, is small. However, as S increases beyond a certain value, the steady-state response ceases to be simply harmonic and, while still periodic, is a more complex waveform. The transition slip load is found to be lower for smaller γ. The maximum possible reduction in vibratory stresses increases as γ decreases. These analytical results are compared with those from the conventional numerical time integration method. In addition, an efficient time integration algorithm is described which can be used to predict the peak displacements of the transition solution without tracing the whole waveform, a useful procedure when no harmonic steady-state solution exists. The conditions under which blade response can be adequately modeled by simulating only dynamic friction are established.

This paper deals with steady-state response of a continuous system with collision characteristics. Considering the energy loss in a collision, an analytical method of approximate solution for the continuous system with symmetrical hysteresis loop characteristics is presented. The resonance curves of nonlinear response obtained from approximate solution are shown as discontinuous line, and are discussed the phenomenon.

The Seismic Electric Effect gives rise to the problem of finding the steady state response of a circuit consisting of an inductance and a response of a circuit consisting of an inductance and a resistance of the form R+A cos cot (R>A) in series with a D.C. input. In this paper a solution is given, other than the one usually obtained by the method of successive approximations.

Abstract An efficient method for obtaining the steady-state response of linear systems with periodically time varying coefficients is developed. The steady-state solution is obtained by dividing the fundamental period into a number of intervals and establishing, based on a fourth-order Rung-Kutta formulation, the relation between the response at the start and end of the period. Imposition of periodicity condition upon the response facilitates computation of the initial condition that yields the steady-state values in a single pass; i.e. integration over only one period. Through a practical example, the method is shown to be more accurate and computationally more efficient than other known methods for computing the steady-state response.

This paper considers the steady-state response due to unbalance of a planar rigid rotor carried in a short squeeze film damper with linear centering spring. The damper fluid forces are determined from the short bearing, cavitated (π film) solution of Reynold’s equation. Assuming a circular centered orbit, a change of coordinates yields equations whose steady-state response are constant eccentricity and phase angle. Focusing on this steady-state solution results in reducing the problem to solutions of two simultaneous algebraic equations. A method for finding the closed-form solution is presented. The system is nondimensionalized, yielding response in terms of an unbalance parameter, a damper parameter, and a speed parameter. Several families of eccentricity-speed curves are presented. Additionally, transmissibility and power consumption solutions are present.

AbstractA family of structure-dependent integration methods has been proposed by Gui et al. for time integration. Although it has desirable numerical properties, such as unconditional stability, explicit formulation and second-order accuracy, it has some adverse properties, such as a poor capability to capture structural nonlinearity, an overshoot in a high frequency steady- state response and a weak instability in the high frequency response of nonzero initial conditions. The causes of these adverse properties are explored. A poor capability to capture structural nonlinearity may originate from the convergence rate of 1 in velocity error. This family method has an overshoot in a high frequency steady-state response and this overshoot can be eliminated by adding a load-dependent term into the displacement difference equation. It is also analytically verified that the family method generally has no weak instability. However, the special member with λ = 4, i.e., CR explicit method, is shown to have a weak instability. Thus, it must be prohibited from practical applications although many applications of this method were found in the literature.

The steady-state response of a one-degree-of-freedom double bilinear hysteretic model is investigated and it is shown that this model gives rise to the jump phenomenon which is associated with certain nonlinear systems. The stability of the steady-state solution is discussed and it is shown that the model predicts an unbounded resonance for finite excitation.
