The resonant behavior of fractional-order Mathieu oscillator subjected to external harmonic excitation is investigated. Based on the harmonic balance (HB) method, the first-order approximate analytical solutions for primary resonance and parametric-forced joint resonance are obtained, and the higher-order approximate steady-state solution for parametric-forced joint resonance is also obtained, where the unified forms of the fractional-order term with fractional order between 0 and 2 are achieved. The correctness of the approximate analytical results is verified by numerical results. The effects of the fractional order and parametric excitation frequency on the resonance response of the system are analyzed in detail. The results show that the HB method is effective to analyze dynamic response in a fractional-order Mathieu system.

The superharmonic resonance of fractional-order Mathieu–Duffing oscillator subjected to external harmonic excitation is investigated. Based on the Krylov–Bogolubov–Mitropolsky (KBM) asymptotic method, the approximate analytical solution for the third superharmonic resonance under parametric-forced joint resonance is obtained, where the unified expressions of the fractional-order term with fractional order from 0 to 2 are gained. The amplitude–frequency equation for steady-state solution and corresponding stability condition are also presented. The correctness of the approximate analytical results is verified by numerical results. The effects of the fractional-order term, excitation amplitudes, and nonlinear stiffness coefficient on the superharmonic resonance response of the system are analyzed in detail. The results show that the KBM method is effective to analyze dynamic response in a fractional-order Mathieu–Duffing system.

The galloping or vortex-induced vibration of transmission lines will lead to a periodic excitations to the masts of the cross-rope suspension tower (CRST). The mast of the CRST is modeled as a straight beam with an elastic support subjected to a pulsating axial force on the top, which will change the stiffness of the mast, thereby resulting in produce harmonic excitation and instability. The dynamic characteristics of the system are investigated, which show that the bending frequency of the CRST decreases linearly with increase in axial static load, while it increases nonlinearly with the increase in boundary stiffness. Then, the method of multiple scales is adopted to analyze the vibration. It is found that the wind load on the mast brings primary resonance, but has no effects on instability. In addition, the steady state solution of the primary resonance is obtained by the polar form of the reduced amplitude modulation equations (RAMEs), with the effects of the following parameters on the vibration amplitude of the mast studied: the prestressing load in the guy, magnitude of the dynamic force, detuning parameter and wind load. Finally, the instability regions of two cases ([Formula: see text] near [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] near [Formula: see text]) are studied by the Cartesian form of the RAMEs, with focus on the influence of the axial harmonic load produced by the galloping of the transmission lines on the instability area. It is observed that the magnitude of excitation frequency of the dynamic force in the range of instability region becomes larger until the spring stiffness is increased up to a certain value.

Responses of systems with nonlinear stiffness subjected to base harmonic excitation are determined. An expression to estimate the amplitude in the fundamental frequency of oscillation is derived from first principles using Lindstedt's method. It is observed that the amplitude determined using the zero order approximation is in error at low frequencies. Therefore, an expression for the first order approximation of the amplitude of response at the fundamental frequency is derived. Zero order and first order approximation terms together form the response. Characteristics showing the variation of the amplitude with the excitation frequency for various nonlinear spring parameters are presented. The issue at low frequencies is resolved by the incorporation of the first order term. An expression for the phase difference and the expression of the asymptote where the responses converge are also derived.

Abstract Computer numerical control (CNC) worktable is the most important part of CNC machines. The CNC worktable exhibits complex nonlinear dynamic behaviors in the milling process. The physical model and mathematical model of CNC worktable are presented, where the nonlinear factors such as clearance and friction are considered. The primary resonance of computer numerical control worktable with clearance and friction under harmonic excitation is investigated. The approximate analytical solution of primary resonance is obtained by using the averaging method. The stability condition of the steady-state solution is also exhibited. It is found that the clearance affects the dynamic characteristics of the system in the form of equivalent nonlinear stiffness, and the friction coefficient acts in the form of equivalent nonlinear damping. The correctness of the approximate analytical solutions is verified by comparing the numerical results with the approximate analytical solutions. The approximate analytical solution is in good agreement with its corresponding numerical solution. The effects of clearance and friction on the dynamic characteristics of the system are analyzed in detail. The stick-slip vibration induced by friction is also analyzed by phase portrait at low feed velocity of machine tool. The results can provide a reference for the dynamic analysis of CNC worktable.

Fractional-order derivative has been shown an adequate tool to the study of so-called "anomalous" social and physical behaviors, in reflecting their non-local, frequency- and history-dependent properties, and it has been used to model practical systems in engineering successfully, including the famous Bagley-Torvik equation modeling forced motion of a rigid plate immersed in Newtonian fluid. The solutions of the initial value problems of linear fractional differential equations are usually expressed in terms of Mittag-Leffler functions or some other kind of power series. Such forms of solutions are not good for engineers not only in understanding the solutions but also in investigation. This paper proves that for the linear SDOF oscillator with a damping described by fractional-order derivative whose order is between 1 and 2, the solution of its initial value problem free of external excitation consists of two parts, the first one is the 'eigenfunction expansion' that is similar to the case without fractional-order derivative, and the second one is a definite integral that is independent of the eigenvalues (or characteristic roots). The integral disappears in the classical linear oscillator and it can be neglected from the solution when stationary solution is addressed. Moreover, the response of the fractionally damped oscillator under harmonic excitation is calculated in a similar way, and it is found that the fractional damping with order between 1 and 2 can be used to produce oscillation with large amplitude as well as to suppress oscillation, depending on the ratio of the excitation frequency and the natural frequency.

Abstract The steady state response of a fractional order vibration system subject to harmonic excitation was studied by using the fractional derivative operator ${}_{-\infty} D_t^\beta,$where the order β is a real number satisfying 0 ≤ β ≤ 2. We derived that the fractional derivative contributes to the viscoelasticity if 0 < β < 1, while it contributes to the viscous inertia if 1 < β < 2. Thus the fractional derivative can represent the “spring-pot” element and also the “inerterpot” element proposed in the present article. The viscosity contribution coefficient, elasticity contribution coefficient, inertia contribution coefficient, amplitude-frequency relation, phase-frequency relation, and influence of the order are discussed in detail. The results show that fractional derivatives are applicable for characterizing the viscoelasticity and viscous inertia of materials.

This paper develops an experimentally validated model of a piezoelectric energy harvester under combined aeroelastic-galloping and base excitations. To that end, an energy harvester consisting of a thin piezoelectric cantilever beam subjected to vibratory base excitation is considered. To permit galloping excitation, a bluff body is rigidly attached at the free end such that a net aerodynamic lift is generated as the incoming airflow separates on both sides of the body giving rise to limit cycle oscillations when the flow velocity exceeds a critical value. A nonlinear electromechanical distributed-parameter model of the harvester under the combined excitation is derived using the energy approach and by adopting the nonlinear Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, linear constitutive relations for the piezoelectric transduction, and the quasi-steady assumption for the aerodynamic loading. The partial differential equations of the system are discretized and a reduced-order-model is obtained. The mathematical model is validated by conducting a series of experiments with different loading conditions represented by wind speed, base excitation amplitude, and excitation frequency around the primary resonance.

An application of the nonlinear saturation control (NSC) algorithm for a self-excited strongly nonlinear beam structure driven by an external force is presented in the paper. The mathematical model accounts for an Euler-Bernoulli beam with nonlinear curvature, reduced to first mode oscillations. It is assumed that the beam vibrates in the presence of a harmonic excitation close to the first natural frequency of the beam, and additionally the beam is self-excited by fluid flow, which is modelled by a nonlinear Rayleigh term for self-excitation. The self- and externally excited vibrations have been reduced by the application of an active, saturation-based controller. The approximate analytical solutions for a full structure have been found by the multiple time scales method, up to the first-order approximation. The analytical solutions have been compared with numerical results obtained from direct integration of the ordinary differential equations of motion. Finally, the influence of a negative damping term and the controller's parameters for effective vibrations suppression are presented.

Abstract This paper investigates the nonlinear dynamics of square dielectric elastomer membranes under time-dependent, through-thickness compressive loading. The dielectric elastomer is modeled as an isotropic ideal dielectric, with mechanical stiffening at large strains captured using the Gent hyperelastic constitutive model. The equation of motion for the in-plane membrane stretch is derived using Hamilton’s principle. The static response of the membrane is first investigated, with equilibrium stretches calculated numerically for a wide range of compressive pre-loads and applied voltages. Snap-through instabilities are observed, with the critical snap-through voltage decreasing with increasing compressive pre-load. The dynamic response of the membrane is then investigated under forced harmonic excitation. Frequency response plots characterizing the steady-state vibration reveal primary, subharmonic, and superharmonic resonances. Near these resonances, two stable vibration states are possible, corresponding to upper and lower branches in the frequency response. Significant and practically meaningful differences in the dynamic response are observed when the system vibrates at a fixed frequency about the upper and lower branches, a feature not discussed in previous research.
