Abstract In this paper, a modal analysis method (MAM) is introduced for the active multi-layer laminate beams. Two types of active multi-layer laminate beams are considered: the elastic-viscoelastic-piezoelectric three-layer beams and the elastic-piezoelectric two-layer beams. The dynamics of the multi-layer laminate beams are represented by a set of fully coupled equations of motion, derived by using Hamilton’s principle. The exact eigenfunctions are spectrally formulated and the orthogonality of eigenfunctions is derived in a closed form. The present MAM is evaluated through some numerical examples. It is shown that the dynamic characteristics obtained by the present MAM certainly converge to the exact ones obtained by SEM as the number of eigenfunctions superposed in MAM is increased. The modal analysis results are also compared with the results obtained by FEM.

Although the exact dynamic elements have been suggested by the authors [1] and proved to be useful for the dynamic analysis of distributed-parameter rotor-bearing systems, difficulty remains in computation because of the presence of transcendental functions in the matrix. This paper proposes a complete analysis scheme for the exact dynamic elements, a generalized modal analysis method, to obtain exact and closed form solutions of time and frequency domain responses for multi-stepped distributed-parameter rotor-bearing systems. A numerical example is provided for validating the proposed method.

With the purpose of realizing the analysis of mechanical structure dynamic characteristics and inhibit vibration and noise, combined with the analysis of a certain type of high speed sewing machines vibration characteristics, we carry on the concrete experimental modal analysis, and compare the results of the experimental modal analysis with the results of spectrum analysis. The analysis results show that the second order natural frequency of the shell is close to two octaves under the normal working speed of sewing machine and it will lead to resonance. Enhancing the structural rigidity and the natural frequency under this modal to avoid resonance frequency is the key to improve vibration resistance of the structure.

AbstractIce-sheet modelers tend to be more familiar with the Newtonian, vectorial formulation of continuum mechanics, in which the motion of an ice sheet or glacier is determined by the balance of stresses acting on the ice at any instant in time. However, there is also an equivalent and alternative formulation of mechanics where the equations of motion are instead found by invoking a variational principle, often called Hamilton’s principle. In this study, we show that a slightly modified version of Hamilton’s principle can be used to derive the equations of ice-sheet motion. Moreover, Hamilton’s principle provides a pathway in which analytic and numeric approximations can be made directly to the variational principle using the Rayleigh–Ritz method. To this end, we use the Rayleigh–Ritz method to derive a variational principle describing the large-scale flow of ice sheets that stitches the shallow-ice and shallow-shelf approximations together. Numerical examples show that the approximation yields realistic steady-state ice-sheet configurations for a variety of basal tractions and sliding laws. Small parameter expansions show that the approximation reduces to the appropriate asymptotic limits of shallow ice and shallow stream for large and small values of the basal traction number.

Holonomic And Nonholonomic Systems

As basic principles for deriving the equations of motion for dynamical systems, there are d’Alembert’s principle and the principle of virtual power. From the former Hamilton’s principle and Langage’s equations are derived, which are powerful tool for deriving the equation of motion of mechanical systems since they can give the equations of motion from the scalar energy quantities. When Hamilton’s principle is applied to nonholonomic systems, however, care has to be taken. In this paper, a unified approach for holonomic and nonholonomic systems is discussed based on the modified Hamilton’s principle. In the present approach, constraints for both of the holonomic and nonholonomic systems are expressed in terms of time derivative of the position, and their variations are treated similarly to the principle of virtual power, i.e. time and position are fixed in operation with respect to the variations. The approach is applied to a holonomic and a simple nonholonomic systems.

Equations of motion of a thin, stranded elastic cable with an eccentric, attached mass and subject to aerodynamic loading are derived using Hamilton’s principle. Coupling between the translational and rotational degrees of freedom owing to inertia, elasticity, and stranded geometry are considered. By invoking simplifying assumptions, the equations of motion are reduced to those obtained previously by other researchers.

Abstract A form of the Verlet-algorithm for the integration of Newton’s equations of motion is derived from Hamilton's principle in discretized space and time. It allows the computation of exactly time-reversible trajectories on a digital computer, offers the possibility of systematically investigating the effects of space discretization, and provides a criterion as to when a trajectory ceases to be physical.

This article studies dynamic characteristics of a novel porous cylindrical hollow rotor based on the first-order shear deformation theory and Hamilton’s principle. The proposed model is made from a core including aluminum with porosity integrated with an arrangement of functionally graded piezoelectric patches placed on its inner and outer surfaces with a customized circumferential orientation. The piezoelectric patches are subjected to applied electric potential as sensor and actuator. The kinematic relations are developed based on the first-order shear deformation theory. Hamilton’s principle is used to derive governing equations of motion with calculation of strain and kinetic energies and external work. Solution procedure of the partial differential equations of motion is developed using Galerkin technique for simple boundary conditions. The accuracy and trueness of this work is justified using a comprehensive comparison with previous valid references. A large parametric study is presented to show influence of significant parameters such as dimensionless geometric parameters, porosity coefficient, angular speed, inhomogeneous index, and characteristics of patches on the mode shapes, natural frequencies, and critical speeds of the structure.

Isolated Systems

At the present time, the relativistic many-particle classical dynamics theory of the Fokker–Wheeler–Feynman type for isolated systems admits to two contradictory and mutually exclusive interpretations, noncausal versus causal. This work resolves this contradiction by demonstrating definitively that the mathematical structure of this theory is inconsistent with the assumption of noncausality. The demonstration is effected by identifying the fundamental difference in the input assumptions responsible for the two interpretations, by presenting general arguments proving the deterministic nature of the equations of motion, and by giving explicit examples that not only display the deterministic nature of the equations of motion but also their causal character, namely, being solvable by a stepwise forward in time integration using solely past information. One concludes, first, that the assumption of noncausality, and related deductions, is invalid and must be rejected and, second, that one has, at last, the relativistic generalization of many-particle nonrelativistic classical dynamics based on a Hamilton's principle and with a Lagrangian structure. Thus, one can sensibly proceed to examine the physical implications.
