Finite Cylindrical Shell

An analysis based on the first kind of Lagranges equations was presented for investigating the vibration and acoustic radiation of underwater finite cylindrical shell with interior plate under multiple excitations. The strain energy and kinetic energy of cylinder and plate were gained by the theory of plates and shells, and the potential energy of excitation and fluid loading was found based on acoustic-vibration coupling, and the connection conditions of plate and cylinder were expressed by Lagrange multipliers, then the vibro-acoustic equations of finite cylinder with interior plate under shafting excitation were established. The influences of excitations and plates position to the vibro-acoustic characteristics were studied by the equations. The results show that the frequency components of plate-shell structure are more complex. For the double excitations on plate, the distance between excitations is larger, the average velocity and sound radiation power are lower, while the radiation efficiency is larger. The modeling and analytical methods adopted in this paper are also available for more complex composite structure.

Principal Contribution

Analytic expressions are given for the radiation resistance at high modal numbers, of an L junction of two finite rectangular plates. Initially, plates are taken to perform small-amplitude transverse vibrations with sinusoidal mode shapes. It is shown that the principal contribution to the radiation resistance can be derived from the solution of appropriate large plate problems. Consequently, account may be taken of more realistic modal profiles arising from the exchange of vibrational energy in structural subsystems.

Radiation Amplitude

In this paper, the acoustic radiation mode’s amplitudes of laminated composite plates are studied. The layer wise finite element model is imposed to determine velocity distributions of laminated composite plates. Based on the acoustic radiation mode, the effects of the panel orientation angle on the first three orders acoustic radiation mode’s amplitude of the laminated composite plates are then discussed. A twelve-layer laminated plate was used as an example, and the numerical simulations results show that the effects of the panel orientation angle on the acoustic radiation amplitude of the laminated composite plates are significant.

Abstract Automotive transmission casing plates of irregular shape, with complex boundary conditions and non-uniform material properties, are experimentally and computationally studied to acquire a fundamental understanding of their dynamic and acoustic radiation characteristics. A modified flat cover is designed which simplifies the geometry while providing uniform thickness and material properties. Both covers (“real-life” and “laboratory”) are studied with free and bolted boundary conditions. In particular, the free boundary conditions are useful because they eliminate the cover-housing interaction allowing for a more detailed analysis of the cover plate. Finite element models for both covers under the free boundary conditions are developed and refined. Predicted natural frequencies and mode shapes are in excellent agreement with measured modal data. Then the finite element models are coupled with boundary element models to predict acoustic radiation properties. Predictions match well with measured acoustic directivity at resonant frequencies.

In this work, a new design method is proposed to intensify the focused acoustic field generated inside a circular cylindrical piezoelectric transducer. The proposed design incorporates a stepped-thickness piezoelectric transducer which has thickness variations along the length. The location of these steps are identified based on the mode shape analysis of a uniform-thickness tube. Once the step locations are identified, two cases are considered with internal and external steps. Acoustic radiation characteristics and mode shapes are compared with the uniform-thickness shell. All the investigations are performed using ANSYS. An increase in the sound pressure level is obtained utilizing the stepped-thickness tube at the same input power.

In the present paper, the influence of Green–Lagrange nonlinear strain-displacement terms, usually considered negligible under the von Kármán hypothesis, on the buckling of isotropic, moderately thick plates and shells, is investigated. The first order shear deformation plate theory is applied and the governing equations, containing nonlinear terms related to both in-plane displacement and out-of-plane rotations usually ignored in the literature, are derived using the principle of minimum of the strain energy. The general Levy type solution method is employed, and exact buckling loads and mode shapes are derived. To verify the accuracy of the solution obtained, comparisons with existing data are first made. Then, through graphics and tables, the effect of the nonlinear strain-displacement terms for a range of boundary and load conditions, variations of aspect ratio, thickness ratio and changes in geometry is presented. The results obtained show that the von Kármán's model can sensibly overestimate the critical load for structures characterized by the modes involving comparable in-plane and out-of-plane displacements.

A study on vibration and acoustic radiation characters of an isotropic rectangular thin plate under thermal environments is presented in this paper. It is assumed that thermal loads caused by thermal environments just change the structure stress state. Thermal stresses induced by uniform temperature rise of the plate are determined with the thermo-elastic theory. Then the stress state is used in the following dynamic analysis as a pre-stressed factor. It is observed that thermal loads influence the natural frequencies evidently, especially the fundamental natural frequency. The order of mode shapes stays the same. Dynamic response peaks float to lower frequency range with the increment of structure temperature. Acoustic radiation efficiency of the plate subjected to thermal loads decreases in the mid-frequency band. For validation, numerical simulations are also carried out. It can be found that the combined approach of finite element method (FEM) and boundary element method (BEM) is more appropriate for radiation problems.
