We propose a new method for vibration suppression in a flexible structure using a frictionless sliding constraint. The constraint force applied by the slider is assumed known from measurements and the slider motion is prescribed to do negative work on the structure. The structure is modeled as a two-dimensional nonlinear rod with pinned-pinned boundary conditions and the slider is assumed to constrain the position of one point on the rod but not its slope. The problem is formulated using variable-length finite elements in the framework of Arbitrary Lagrange-Euler (ALE) description. The governing equations of motion are derived using the principle of virtual displacements and D’Alembert’s principle. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the control strategy based on the idea of negative work. To meet the bandwidth requirement of the actuator, a nonlinear filter is placed in the feedback loop and asymptotic stability of the equilibrium configuration is established using Lyapunov stability theory.

In this paper, two models of elastic metamaterial containing one and two resonators are proposed to obtain the bandgaps with the aim of providing broadband vibration suppression. The model with one DOF is built by assembling several unite cells in which each unite cell consists of a rectangular frame as the base structure and a rack-and-pinion mechanism that is joined to the frame with a linear spring on both sides. In the second model with two DOF, a small mass is added while its center is attached to the center of the pinion on one side and the other side is connected to the rectangular frame via a linear spring. In the first mechanism, the pinion is considered as the single resonator, and in the 2DOF model, on the other hand, the pinion and small mass acted as multiple resonators. By obtaining the governing equations of motion for a single cell in each model, the dynamic behavior of two metastructures is thoroughly investigated. Therefore, the equations of motion for the two models are written in matrix form, and then, the dispersion relations are presented to analyze the influences of system parameters on the bandgaps’ starting/ending frequencies. Finally, two models are successfully compared and then numerically simulated via MATLAB-SIMULINK and MSC-ADAMS software. With the aid of closed-form expressions for starting/ending frequencies, the correlation between the system parameters and bandgap intervals can be readily recognized.

In this paper a satellite with two flexible appendages and the piezoelectric layers which are attached to them and a central hub is considered. The piezoelectric layers are used as actuators. The governing equations of motion are derived based on Lagrange method. Using Rayleigh-Ritz technique ordinary differential equations of motion are obtained. A robust passivity based control is applied to the system to not only control the three axes maneuver of the satellite but also suppress the vibrations of the flexible appendages. Finally, the system is simulated and simulation results show the good performance of this controller.

Turning cutting tool with large length–diameter ratio has been essential when machining structural part with deep cavity and in-depth hole features. However, chatter vibration is apt to occur with the increase of tool overhang. A slender turning cutting tool with a length–diameter ratio of 7 is developed by using a vibration absorber equipped with piezoelectric ceramic. The vibration absorber has dual functions of vibration transfer to the absorber mass and vibration conversion to the electrical energy via the piezoelectric effect. Equations of motion are established considering the dual damping from the piezoelectric ceramic and rubber gasket. The equivalent damping of piezoelectric ceramic is derived, and the geometries are optimized to achieve optimal vibration suppression. The modal analysis demonstrates that the cutting tool with the vibration absorber can reach 80.1% magnitude reduction. Machining tests are carried out in the end. The machining acceleration and machined surface roughness validate the vibration suppression of the VA, and the output voltage by the piezoelectric ceramic demonstrates the ability of vibration sensing.

In this paper, vibration behavior of engine on nonlinear hydraulic engine mount including inertia track and decoupler is studied. In this regard, after introducing the nonlinear factors of this mount (i.e. inertia and decoupler resistances in turbulent region), the vibration governing equations of engine on one hydraulic engine mount are solved and the effect of nonlinearity is investigated. In order to have a comparison between rubber and hydraulic engine mounts, a 6 degree of freedom four cylinders V-shaped engine under inertia and balancing masses forces and torques is considered. By solving the time domain nonlinear equations of motion of engine on three inclined mounts, translational and rotational motions of engines body are obtained for different engine speeds. Transmitted base forces are also determined for both types of engine mount. Comparison of rubber and hydraulic mounts indicates the efficiency of hydraulic one in low frequency region.

A new analytical model is developed for the reduction of noise inside a cavity using distributed piezoelectric actuators. A modal coupling method is used to establish the governing equations of motion of the fully coupled acoustics-structure-piezoelectric patch system. Two performance functions relating “global” and “local” optimal control of sound pressure levels (SPL) respectively are applied to obtain the control laws. The discussions on associated control mechanism show that both the mechanisms of modal amplitude suppression and modal rearrangement may sometimes coexist in the implementation of optimal noise control.

The linear in-plane free vibration of a thin, homogeneous, viscoelastic, rotating annular disk is investigated. In the development of an analytical solution, two dimensional elastodynamic theory is employed and the viscoelastic material for the medium is allowed by assuming complex elastic moduli. The general governing equations of motion are derived by implementing plane stress theory. Natural frequencies are computed for several modes at specific radius ratios with fixed-free boundary conditions and modal loss factors for different damping ratios are determined. The computed results were compared to previously established results. It was observed that the effects of rotational speed and hysteretic damping ratio on natural frequency and elastic stability of the rotating disks were related to the mode of vibration and type of circumferential wave occurring.

<p><span lang="EN-IN">The flow of an unsteady incompressible electrically conducting fluid with uniform distribution of dust particles in a constricted channel has been studied. The medium is assumed to be porous in nature. The governing equations of motion are treated analytically and the expressions are obtained by using variable separable and Laplace transform techniques. The influence of the dust particles on the velocity distributions of the fluid are investigated for various cases and the results are illustrated by varying parameters like Hartmann number, deposition thickness on the walls of the cylinder and the permeability of the porous medium on the velocity of dust and fluid phase.</span></p>

The vibration behavior of piezoelectric microbeams is studied on the basis of the modified couple stress theory. The governing equations of motion and boundary conditions for the Euler-Bernoulli and Timoshenko beam models are derived using Hamilton’s principle. By the exact solution of the governing equations, an expression for natural frequencies of microbeams with simply supported boundary conditions is obtained. Numerical results for both beam models are presented and the effects of piezoelectricity and length scale parameter are illustrated. It is found that the influences of piezoelectricity and size effects are more prominent when the length of microbeams decreases. A comparison between two beam models also reveals that the Euler-Bernoulli beam model tends to overestimate the natural frequencies of microbeams as compared to its Timoshenko counterpart.

The dynamical analysis of a rotating thin-walled composite shaft with internal damping is carried out analytically. The equations of motion are derived using the thin-walled composite beam theory and the principle of virtual work. The internal damping of shafts is introduced by adopting the multiscale damping analysis method. Galerkin’s method is used to discretize and solve the governing equations. Numerical study shows the effect of design parameters on the natural frequencies, critical rotating speeds, and instability thresholds of shafts.

Abstract This paper describes a finite element approach to the analysis of flexible multibody systems. It is based on the motion formalism that (1) uses configuration and motion to describe the kinematics of flexible multibody systems, (2) recognizes that these are members of the Special Euclidean group thereby coupling their displacement and rotation components, and (3) resolves all tensors components in local frames. The goal of this review paper is not to provide an in-depth derivation of all the elements found in typical multibody codes but rather to demonstrate how the motion formalism (1) provides a theoretical framework that unifies the formulation of all structural elements, (2) leads to governing equations of motion that are objective, intrinsic, and present a reduced order of nonlinearity, (3) improves the efficiency of the solution process, and (4) prevents the occurrence of singularities.
