This paper presents a method for analyzing a pair of coupled nonlinear differential equations of the Duffing type in order to determine whether linearly related modal oscillations of the system are possible. The system has two masses, a coupling spring and two anchor springs. For the systems studied, the anchor springs are symmetric but the masses are not. The method requires the solution of a polynomial of fourth degree which reduces to a quadratic because of the symmetric springs. The roots are a function of the spring constants. When a particular set of spring constants is chosen, roots can be found which are then used to set the necessary mass ratio for linear modal oscillations. Limits on the ranges of spring-constant ratios for real roots and positive-mass ratios are given. A general stability analysis is presented with expressions for the stability in terms of the spring constants and masses. Two specific examples are given.

An experimental investigation on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) response characteristics of a rigid cylinder was conducted at the Towing Tank Lab in Harbin Engineering University. The Reynolds Number based on proposed diameter ranged from 6×104 to 2.4×105, with the cross-flow mass ratio my* = 1.127 and the in-line mass ratio mx* = 1.363. In the experiment, the spring constants of the cross-flow and in-line flow directions were regulated to change the natural vibration frequency of the model system. One- and two-degree-of-freedom VIV experiment was respectively carried out to analyze the vibration characteristic and trajectory. It was found that the non-dimension in-line and cross-flow natural frequency ratio fx/fy, is an important parameter which not only affects cross-flow vibration peak but also affects the forms of vibration trajectory except the reduced velocity.

The stability of periodic motions (nonlinear normal modes) in a nonlinear two-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian system is studied by deriving an approximation for the Poincare´ map via the Birkhoff-Gustavson canonical transofrmation. This method is presented as an alternative to the usual linearized stability analysis based on Floquet theory. An example is given for which the Floquet theory approach fails to predict stability but for which the Poincare´ map approach succeeds.

We first study the distribution of the zeros of a fourth-degree exponential polynomial. Then we apply the obtained results to a simplified bidirectional associated memory (BAM) neural network with four neurons and multiple time delays. By taking the sum of the delays as the bifurcation parameter, it is shown that under certain assumptions the steady state is absolutely stable. Under another set of conditions, there are some critical values of the delay, when the delay crosses these critical values, the Hopf bifurcation occurs. Furthermore, some explicit formulae determining the stability and the direction of periodic solutions bifurcating from Hopf bifurcations are obtained by applying the normal form theory and center manifold reduction. Numerical simulations supporting the theoretical analysis are also included.

This paper investigates the streamline topologies and stability of stagnation points and their bifurcations for an asymmetric peristaltic flow. The asymmetry of channel is due to the propagation of peristaltic waves with different phases and amplitudes on the flexible channel walls. An exact analytic solution of the flow problem subject to the constraints of low Reynolds number and long wavelength is obtained in wave frame of reference moving with wave velocity. A system of nonlinear differential equations is established to locate and classify the stagnation points in the flow domain. Different flow situations, manifested in the flow field, are categorized as: backward flow, trapping, and augmented flow. The transition from one situation to the other corresponds to bifurcation, which is explored graphically through local and global bifurcation diagrams. This analysis discloses the stability status of stagnation points and ranges of involved parameters in which various flow conditions appear in the flow field. It is concluded that the trapping in an asymmetric peristaltic transport can be reduced by increasing the phase difference of the channel walls. It is also found that the augmented flow region shrinks and the trapping region expands by increasing the amplitude ratio of the channel walls.

In a recent paper1 we have proposed a new approach for extracting the wave function of the π-meson φπ(x) and the masses and wave functions of its first resonances from the new QCD sum rules for nondiagonal correlators obtained in Ref. 2. Here, we test our approach using an exactly solvable toy model as illustration. We demonstrate the validity of the method and suggest a pure algebraic procedure for extracting the masses and wave functions relating to the case under investigation. We also explore the stability of the procedure under perturbations of the theoretical part of the sum rule. In application to the pion case, this results not only in the mass and wave function of the first resonance (π′), but also in the estimation of π″-mass.

В статье представлены на рассмотрение характеристики стабильности работы стреловых грузоподъемных средств на колесном шасси в форме математических выражений. Математические выражения представлены в виде не громоздких зависимостей от конкретно заданных параметров. Качество движения зависит от возрастания линейных размеров, масс, моментов инерции, а также скоростей и других механических параметров грузоподъемных средств. Достижение стабильности работы выносных стреловых грузоподъемных средств достигается путем распределения нагрузки между утлегарью (выносной стрелой грузоподъемного средства) и опорными колесами колесного шасси. Считаем, что при существовании ряда концепцией со своими теориями. возможно определение стабильности работы стрелового грузоподъемного средства на колесном шасси. Нами установлено, что возможно обеспечить стабильность работы путем выбора целесообразных значений механических составляющих всех звеньев рабочего механизма для спланировано составленных рабочих ситуаций. В зависимости от возможного размещения грузоподъемного устройства показатели стабильности работы меняются и это подтверждают составленные нами математические выражения, которые приводятся в статье. Установлено, что путем варьирования различными вариантами положений и массой составляющих элементов конструкции грузоподъемного средства, а также графически определяя возможные варианты перемещения груза в зависимости от заданной длины утлегарьи, имеет место выражение, позволяющее определить ряд значений масс, безопасно поднимаемых грузоподъемным средством. Нами получены значения необходимых для графических построений грузовых характеристик грузоподъемного средства, выражающие зависимость между массой груза и вылетом утлегарьи с весом ее элементов. Реакции в шарнирах утлегарьи и усилия в ее составляющих звеньях возможно установить из данных грузовой характеристики. Стремление обеспечить максимальную стабильность работы грузоподъемного средства накладывает ограничения на контроль за несколькими подвижными операциями одновременно, что неблагоприятно сказывается на эффективности рабочего процесса. Установили, что обеспечение стабильности работы в поперечной и продольной плоскостях грузоподъемного средства является необходимым компонентом безопасной эксплуатации. По зависимостям для определения показателя грузового равновесия возможно определение предварительного места установки выносных опор грузоподъемного средства. Как подтверждают полученные результаты, стабильность работы грузоподъемного средства в продольном направлении определяется аналогично стабильности работы в поперечном направлении и для номинальной массы груза при наибольшем вылете утлегарьи и выставленных выносных опорах. В итоге отметим, что показателем грузового равновесия служит отношение удерживающего момента относительно ребра опрокидывания, создаваемого весом грузоподъемного средства на колесном шасси с учетом уменьшающих его дополнительных внешних нагрузок и влияния уклона площадки к опрокидывающему моменту, создаваемому рабочим грузом. The article presents for consideration the characteristics of the stability of the boom lifting equipment on a wheeled chassis in the form of mathematical expressions. Mathematical expressions are presented in the form of not cumbersome dependencies on specified parameters. The quality of movement depends on the increase in linear dimensions, masses, moments of inertia, as well as speeds, and other mechanical parameters of the lifting equipment. Achievement of the stability of the outboard boom lifting device is achieved by distributing the load between the jib boom (outboard boom of the lifting device) and the support wheels of the wheeled chassis. We believe that with the existence of a number of concepts with their theories, it is possible to determine the stability of the boom lifting device on a wheeled chassis. It has been found that it is possible to ensure the stability of work by choosing the appropriate values of the mechanical components of all links of the working mechanism for planned working situations. Depending on the possible placement of the lifting device, the stability indicators are changed, and this is confirmed by the mathematical expressions we compiled, which are given in the article. It has been established that by varying the positions and the mass of the constituent elements of the structure of the lifting device, as well as graphically defining the possible options of the load moving, depending on the given length of the jib boom, an expression takes place that makes it possible to determine a number of values of the masses safely lifted by the lifting device. There have been obtained the values of the cargo characteristics of the lifting device necessary for graphic constructions, expressing the relationship between the weight of the cargo and the overhanging of the jib boom with the weight of its elements. The reactions in the joints of the jig boom and the forces in its constituent links can be established from the data of the load characteristics. The desire to ensure maximum stability in the operation of the lifting device imposes restrictions on the control of several mobile operations at the same time, which adversely affects the efficiency of the work process. It has been established that ensuring the stability of operation in the transverse and longitudinal planes of the lifting device is a necessary component of safe operation. According to the dependencies for determining the indicator of cargo balance, it is possible to determine the preliminary installation site of the outriggers of the lifting device. As the results obtained confirm, the stability of the operation of the lifting device in the longitudinal direction is determined similarly to the stability of the operation in the transverse direction and for the nominal weight of the load with the greatest overhanging of the jib boom and the set outriggers. As a result, we note that the ratio of the holding moment relative to the overturning rib created by the weight of the lifting device on the wheeled chassis, taking into account the additional external loads that reduce it and the influence of the platform slope to the overturning moment created by the working load, serves as an indicator of the cargo balance.

Abstract The natural modes of free vibrations of a symmetrical two-degree-of-freedom system are analyzed theoretically and experimentally. This system has two natural modes, one in-phase and the other out-of-phase. In contradistinction to the comparable single-degree-of-freedom system where the free vibrations are always orbitally stable, the natural modes of the symmetrical two-degree-of-freedom system are frequently unstable. The stability properties depend on two parameters and are easily deduced from a stability chart. For sufficiently small amplitudes both modes are, in general, stable. When the coupling spring is linear, both modes are always stable at all amplitudes. For other conditions, either mode may become unstable at certain amplitudes. In particular, if there is a single value of frequency and amplitude at which the system can vibrate in either mode, the out-of-phase mode experiences a change of stability. The experimental investigation has generally confirmed the theoretical predictions.
