This paper investigates the dynamic stability of an axially moving web which translates with periodically varying speeds and is subjected to partially distributed tensions on two opposite edges. The web is modeled as a rectangular plate simply supported at two opposite edges where the tension is applied, and free at the other two edges. The plate is assumed to possess internal damping, which obeys the Kelvin-Voigt model. The moving speed of the plate is expressed as the sum of a constant speed and a periodical perturbation with a zero mean. Due to the periodically varying speed of the moving plate, terms with time-dependent coefficients appear in the equations of motion, which may bring about parametric instability under certain situations. First, the in-plane stresses of the plate due to the partially distributed edge tensions is determined exactly by the theory of plane elasticity. Then, the dependence on the spatial coordinates in the equations of motion is eliminated by the Galerkin method, which results in a set of discretized system equations in time. Finally, the method of multiple scales is utilized to solve this set of system equations analytically if the periodical perturbation of the moving speed is much smaller as compared with the average speed of the plate, from which the stability boundaries of the moving plate are obtained. Numerical results reveal that only combination resonances of the sum-type appear between modes having the same symmetry class in the transverse direction. Unstable regions of main resonances are generally larger than those of sum-type resonances.

This paper presents an investigation into the vibration and stability of a blade spinning with respect to a nonfixed axis. Due to the motion of the spin axis, parametric instability of the blade may occur in certain situations. In this work, the discretized equations of motion are first formulated by the finite element technique. Then the system equations are transformed, by a special modal analysis procedure, into independent sets of first-order simultaneous differential equations. Each set of differential equations is solved analytically by the method of multiple scales if the precessional speed of the spin axis is assumed to be small compared to the spin rate of the blade, yielding the system response and the expressions for the boundaries of the unstable regions. Finally, the effects of system parameters on the changes in these boundaries are studied numerically.

This paper presents an analysis of dynamic stability of an annular plate with a periodically varying spin rate subjected to a stationary in-plane edge load. The spin rate of the plate is characterized as the sum of a constant speed and a small, periodic perturbation. Due to this periodically varying spin rate, the plate may bring about parametric instability. In this work, the initial stress distributions caused by the periodically varying spin rate and the in-plane edge load are analyzed first. The finite element method is applied then to yield the discretized equations of motion. Finally, the method of multiple scales is adopted to determine the stability boundaries of the system. Numerical results show that combination resonances take place only between modes of the same nodal diameter if the stationary in-plane edge load is absent. However, there are additional combination resonances between modes of different nodal diameters if the stationary in-plane edge load is present.

The Stability

The parametric excitation of an axially moving plate is examined in an application where a partial foundation moves in the plane of the plate and in a direction orthogonal to the plate’s transport. The stability of the plate’s out-of-plane vibration is of interest in a magnetic tape data storage application where the read/write head is substantially narrower than the tape’s width and is repositioned during track-following maneuvers. In this case, the model’s equation of motion has time-dependent coefficients, and vibration is excited both parametrically and by direct forcing. The parametric instability of out-of-plane vibration is analyzed by using the Floquet theory for finite values of the foundation’s range of motion. For a relatively soft foundation, vibration is excited preferentially at the primary resonance of the plate’s fundamental torsional mode. As the foundation’s stiffness increases, multiple primary and combination resonances occur, and they dominate the plate’s stability; small islands, however, do exist within unstable zones of the frequency-amplitude parameter space for which vibration is marginally stable. The plate’s and foundation’s geometry, the foundation’s stiffness, and the excitation’s amplitude and frequency can be selected in order to reduce undesirable vibration that occurs along the plate’s free edge.

This paper experimentally investigates the parametric instability of an industrial axially moving belt subjected to multifrequency excitation. Based on the equations of motion, an analytical perturbation analysis is achieved to identify instabilities. The second part deals with an experimental setup that subjects a moving belt to multifrequency parametric excitation. A data acquisition technique using optical encoders and based on the angular sampling method is used with success for the first time on a nonsynchronous belt transmission. Transmission error between pulleys, pulley/belt slip, and tension fluctuation are deduced from pulley rotation angle measurements. Experimental results validate the theoretical analysis. Of particular note is that the instability regions are shifted to lower frequencies than the classical ones due to the multifrequency excitation. This experiment also demonstrates nonuniform belt characteristics (longitudinal stiffness and friction coefficient) along the belt length that are unexpected sources of excitation. These variations are shown to be sources of parametric instability.

The aim of this paper is to examine the natural frequencies of beams for different flexural stiffness, internal simple support locations and axial moving speed. In the present investigation, the linear transverse vibrations of an axially translating beam are considered based on Euler-Bernoulli model. The beam is passing through two frictionless guides and has an internal simple support between the guides. The governing differential equations of motion are derived using Hamiltons Principle for two regions of the beam. The method of multiple scales is employed to obtain approximate analytical solution. Some numerical calculations are conducted to present the effects of flexural rigidity, mean translating speed and different internal support locations on natural frequencies.

This paper investigates the dynamic stability of a finite Timoshenko beam spinning along its longitudinal axis and subjected to a moving mass-spring-damper (MSD) unit traveling in the axial direction. The mass of the moving MSD unit makes contact with the beam all the time during traveling. Due to the moving MSD unit, the beam is acted upon by a periodic, parametric excitation. In this work, the equations of motion of the beam are first discretized by the Galerkin method. The discretized equations of motion are then partially uncoupled by the modal analysis procedure suitable for gyroscopic systems. Finally the method of multiple scales is used to obtain the stability boundaries of the beam. Numerical results show that if the displacement of the MSD unit is equal to only one of the two transverse displacements of the beam, very large unstable regions may appear at main resonances.

The Relationship

Paper board with bending stiffness is usually used as the substrates on cigarette package printing industry. The vibration of these paper boards in high speed affects the printing precision. The dynamic characteristics and stability of moving paper board with finite interior elastic point supports and elastic edges restrained are investigated. First, the energy function of the system is established by using the extended Hamilton’s principle; second, the dimensionless equations of motion for the moving paper board are obtained using the element-free Galerkin method. The equations of motion and the eigenvalue equations of the system are established. The relationship between the first three complex frequencies of the system and the moving speed is then obtained by the numerical calculation. The effects of the elastic point supports, the elastically restrained edges, and the dimensionless speed of the motion on the dynamic stability of the paper board are analyzed. The critical speed when the paper board is in a stable state under different conditions is obtained. The results improve the dynamic stability of the paper board in printing process and provide the theoretical basis for the optimization of printing equipment.

Nonlinear Equations Of Motion

This study deals with the nonlinear flutter of a cantilever wing in the absence and presence of parametric excitation that acts in the plane of highest rigidity. The nonlinear equations of motion in the presence of an incompressible fluid flow are derived using Hamilton’s principle. The regions of parametric instability are obtained for different values of flow speed. In the neighborhood of combination parametric resonance, the nonlinear response is determined using the multiple scales method for different values of flow speed. In the absence of parametric excitations, numerical simulation is performed for flow speeds at the critical flutter speed. It is found that the nonlinear flutter of the two modes depends on initial conditions, and exhibits symmetric periodic oscillations. Under parametric excitation and in the absence of air flow, each mode oscillates at its own natural frequency. In the presence of air flow, the two modes possess the same frequency response. Depending on the flow speed the response could be periodic, quasi-periodic, or chaotic.
