Abstract The dynamic response and stability of parametrically excited viscoelastic belts are investigated in this paper. The linear viscoelastic differential constitutive law is employed to characterize the material property of belts. The generalized equation of motion is obtained for a viscoelastic moving belt with geometric nonlinearity. The method of multiple scales is applied directly to the governing equation, which is in the form of continuous gyroscopic systems. Closed-form expressions for the amplitude, existence conditions and stability conditions of non-trivial limit cycles of the summation resonance are obtained. Effects of viscoelastic parameters, excitation frequencies, excitation amplitudes and axial moving speeds on stability boundaries are discussed.

The multi-pulse heteroclinic orbits and chaotic dynamics of a parametrically excited viscoelastic moving belt are studied in detail. Using Kelvin-type viscoelastic constitutive law, the equation of motion for viscoelastic moving belt with the external damping and parametric excitation are determined. The four-dimensional averaged equation under the case of 1:1 internal resonance and primary parametric resonance is obtained by directly using the method of multiple scales and Galerkin’s approach to the partial differential governing equation of motion for viscoelastic moving belt. The system is transformed to the averaged equation. From the averaged equation, the theory of normal form is used to find the explicit formulas of normal form. Based on normal form obtained, an extension of the Melnikov method is utilized to analyze the multi-pulse global bifurcations and chaotic dynamics for a parametrically excited viscoelastic moving belt. The analysis of global dynamics indicates that there exist the multi-pulse jumping orbits in the perturbed phase space of the averaged equation. From the averaged equations obtained, the chaotic motions and the Shilnikov type multi-pulse heteroclinic orbits of viscoelastic moving belts are found by using numerical simulation. The results obtained above mean the existence of the chaos for the Smale horseshoe sense for a parametrically excited viscoelastic moving belt.

By taking advantage of modal decoupling and reduction of order, we derive a simplified procedure for applying the method of multiple scales to determine the stability boundaries of parametrically excited, gyroscopic systems. The analytic advantages of the procedure are illustrated with three examples.

In this paper, the Shilnikov type multi-pulse orbits and chaotic dynamics of parametrically excited viscoelastic moving string are studied in detail. Using Kelvin-type viscoelastic constitutive law, the equation of motion for viscoelastic moving string with the external damping and parametric excitation is given. The four-dimensional averaged equation under primary parametric resonance is obtained by directly using the method of multiple scales and Galerkin’s approach to the partial differential governing equation of viscoelastic moving string. The Shilnikov type multi-pulse chaotic motions of viscoelastic moving string are also found by using numerical simulation. A new phenomenon on the multi-pulse jumping orbits and a new strange attractor are observed from three-dimensional phase space for the first time.

In this work a novel pneumatic artificial muscle is fabricated using golden muga silk and silicon rubber. It is assumed that the muscle force is a quadratic function of pressure. Here a single degree of freedom system is considered where a mass is supported by a spring-damper-and pneumatically actuated muscle. While the spring-mass damper is a passive system, the addition of pneumatic muscle makes the system active. The dynamic analysis of this system is carried out by developing the equation of motion which contains multi-frequency excitations with both forced and parametric excitations. Using method of multiple scales the reduced equations are developed for simple and principal parametric resonance conditions. The time response obtained using method of multiple scales have been compared with those obtained by solving the original equation of motion numerically. Using both time response and phase portraits, variation of few systems parameters have been carried out. This work may find application in developing wearable device and robotic device for rehabilitation purpose.

The steady-state transverse responses and the stability of an axially accelerating viscoelastic string are investigated. The governing equation is derived from the Eulerian equation of motion of a continuum, which leads to the Mote model for transverse motion. The Kirchhoff model is derived from the Mote model by replacing the tension with the averaged tension over the string. The method of multiple scales is applied to the two models in the case of principal parametric resonance. Closed-form expressions of the amplitudes and the existence conditions of steady-state periodical responses are presented. The Lyapunov linearized stability theory is employed to demonstrate that the first (second) non-trivial steady-state response is always stable (unstable). Numerical calculations show that the two models are qualitatively the same, but quantitatively different. Numerical results are also presented to highlight the effects of the mean axial speed, the axial-speed fluctuation amplitude, and the viscoelastic parameters.

This paper predicts transverse vibration and stability of a rotating circular plate subjected to stationary, in-plane, concentrated edge loads. First of all, the equation of motion is discretized in a plate-based coordinate system resulting in a set of coupled Hill’s equations. Through use of the method of multiple scales, stability of the rotating plate is predicted in closed form in terms of the rotational speed and the in-plane edge loads. The asymmetric membrane stresses resulting from the stationary in-plane edge loads will transversely excite the rotating plates to single-mode parametric resonances as well as combination resonances at supercritical speed. In addition, introduction of plate damping will suppress the parametric instability when normalized edge loads are small. Moreover, the radial in-plane edge load dominates the rotational speed at which the instability occurs, and the tangential in-plane edge load dominates the width of the instability zones.

Bio-MEMS/NEMS resonator sensors near twice natural frequency for mass detection are investigated. Electrostatic force along with fringe correction and Casimir effect are included in the model. They introduce parametric nonlinear terms in the system. The partial-differential equation of motion of the system is solved by using the method of multiple scales. A direct approach of the problem is then used. Two approximation problems resulting from the direct approach are solved. Phase-amplitude relationship is obtained. Numerical results for uniform electrostatically actuated micro resonator sensors are reported.

This paper deals with two frequency parametric excitation in presence of internal resonance. The cubic nonlinearity is inserted into the equation of motion by considering the mid-line stretching of the beam. The perturbation method of multiple scales is applied directly to the governing nonlinear fourth order integro-partial differential equation of motion. This leads to a set of first order differential equations known as the reduced equations or normalized reduced equations, which are utilized to determine the additional instability zones, appeared in the trivial state stability plot, the bifurcation and stability of fixed-points, periodic, quasi-periodic, mixed mode and chaotic responses. The transition of system behaviour from stable periodic to unstable chaotic occurs through intermittency route

The linear, viscoelastic, integral constitutive law is employed to model the viscoelastic characteristic of belt materials. By assuming the translating eigenfunctions instead of stationary eigenfunctions to be the spatial solutions, the governing equation is reduced to differential-integral equations in time, which are then solved by the block-by-block method. The transient amplitudes of parametrically excited viscoelastic moving belts with uniform and non-uniform travelling speed are obtained. The effects of viscoelastic parameters and perturbed axial velocity on the system response are also investigated.

This paper deals with two different methods to analyze the amplitude frequency response of an electrostatically actuated micro resonator. The methods used in this paper are the method of multiple scales, which is an analytical method with one mode of vibration. The other method is based on system of odes which is derived using the partial differential equation of motion, as well as the boundary conditions. This system is then solved using a built in matlab function known as BVP4C. Results are then shown comparing the two methods, under a variety of parameters, including the influence of damping, voltage, and fringe.
