The deflection, bending moment, shear force and acceleration-time histories of a two-span beam subjected to moving sprung vehicles are presented. The vehicle model is a 2DOF system with a constant velocity. The two-span beam with a rough surface is used as structure model. The beam is defined in modal domain by natural frequencies, mode shapes and modal damping values. The rough surface is modeled by filtered white noise. The equations of motion for the coupled vehicle-structure system are formulated, for non-dimensionalized variables in the system equation. The first-order linear stochastic differential equations are solved, and the effects of the span passage rate and other important parameters are studied.

The vibration characteristics of a circumferentially cracked rotating disk are investigated. The disk is assumed to be axisymmetric, flexible and clamped at the center. The crack increases the local flexibility of the disk at the crack location and is modeled as linear and torsional springs, connecting the two segments of the disk. The spring constants are evaluated by considering crack opening displacements due to bending moment and shear force at the crack location. The equations of motion of two segments of the disk, for disk operating in vacuum as well as subjected to shear fluid flow are developed. Using the Finite Difference Technique, the coupled systems of equations are solved and the natural frequencies and mode shapes are obtained. The mode shapes are seen to be comparatively flattened in the inner region of the disk separated by the crack and heightened towards the periphery of the disk. Shear fluid loading reduces the critical speeds and results in a quicker onset of instability. The degree of instability caused by the crack is a function of crack depth and location. Critical speeds increase with increasing crack distance from the central clamp and decrease with increasing crack depth.

In a previous paper, the correspondence principle has been applied to derive the differential equations of motion of viscoelastic Timoshenko beams with or without external viscous damping. To study free vibrations these equations are solved by Laplace transform and boundary conditions are applied to obtain the attenuation factor and the frequency of the damped free vibrations and mode shapes. The present paper continues to analyze this subject and deals with the responses in deflection, bending slope, bending moment and shear for forced vibrations. Laplace transform and appropriate boundary conditions have been applied. Examples are given and results are plotted. The solution of forced vibrations of elastic Timoshenko beams obtained as a result of reduction from viscoelastic case and by eigenfunction expansion method concludes the paper.

Shear fluid loading reduces the natural frequencies and results in a quicker onset of instability. It is observed that the effect of the crack on the vibration characteristics of the disk is mainly a function of the crack location.

Abstract During the manufacture and transport of textile products, yarns are rotated at high speed and form balloons. The dynamic response of the balloon to varying rotation speed, boundary excitation, and disturbance forces governs the quality of the associated process. Resonance, in particular, can cause large tension variations that reduce product quality and may cause yarn breakage. In this paper, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a single loop balloon are calculated to predict resonance. The three dimensional nonlinear equations of motion are simplified via small steady state displacement (sag) and vibration assumptions. Axial vibration is assumed to propagate instantaneously or in a quasistatic manner. Galerkin’s method is used to calculate the mode shapes and natural frequencies of the linearized equations. Experimental measurements of the steady state balloon shape and the first two natural frequencies and mode shapes are compared with theoretical predictions.

This paper is composed of two main parts: simplification of leg structure of the jack-up rig, and dynamic analysis of the entire rig due to excitation of regular waves. First, the legs of spatial beamlike lattice with rigid joints are replaced by the equivalent beams through application of the theory of static condensation and the principle of virtual work. Then the equations of motion of the entire rig are derived based on the simplified mathematical model, and the natural frequencies and mode shapes are sought by the Jacobi method. Finally, the dynamic behavior of the hinged rig and fixed rig operating in four kinds of water depths (and hence effective leg lengths) and wave heights is studied by means of the mode superposition technique. The phase angles between responses of the legs and the influence on responses of support conditions at the seabed, wave attack angle, and damping ratio are the key points of the investigation.

High speed rotating blades are crucial components of modern large aircraft engines. The rotating blades under working condition frequently suffer from the aerodynamic, elastic and inertia loads, which may lead to large amplitude nonlinear oscillations. This paper investigates nonlinear dynamic responses of the blade with varying rotating speed in supersonic airflow. The blade is simplified as a pre-twist and presetting cantilever composite plate. Warping effect of the rectangular cross-section of the plate is considered. Based on the first-order shear deformation theory and von-Karman nonlinear geometric relationship, nonlinear partial differential dynamic equations of motion for the plate are derived by using Hamilton’s principle. Galerkin approach is applied to discretize the partial differential governing equations of motion to ordinary differential equations. Asymptotic perturbation method is exploited to derive four-degree-of-freedom averaged equation for the case of 1 : 3 internal resonance-1/2 sub-harmonic resonance. Based on the averaged equation, numerical simulation is used to analyze the influence of the perturbation rotating speed on nonlinear dynamic responses of the blade. Bifurcation diagram, phase portraits, waveforms and power spectrum prove that periodic motion and chaotic motion exist in nonlinear vibration of the rotating cantilever composite plate.

Deepwater surface BOP (surface blowout prevention, SBOP) drilling differs from conventional riser drilling system. To analyze the dynamic response of this system, the riser-conductor was considered as a beam with varied cross-sections subjected to loads throughout its length; then an equation of motion and free vibration of the riser-conductor string for SBOP was developed. The finite difference method was used to solve the equation of motion in time domain and a semianalytical approach based on the concept of section division and continuation was proposed to analyze free vibration. Case simulation results show that the method established for SBOP system natural frequency analysis is reasonable. The mode shapes of the riser-conductor are different between coupled and decoupled methods. The soil types surrounding the conductor under mudline have tiny effect on the natural frequency. Given that some papers have discussed the response of the SBOP riser, this work focused on the comparison of the dynamic responses on the wellhead and conductor with variable conditions. The dynamic lateral displacement, the bending moment, and the parameters’ sensitivity of the wellhead and the conductor were analyzed.

The mode shapes, frequencies, and modal mass and stiffness coefficients of multibody systems such as tracked vehicles can be determined using experimental identification techniques. In multibody simulations, however, knowledge of the modal parameters of the individual components is required, and consequently, a procedure for extracting the component modes from the mode shapes of the assembled system must be used if experimental modal analysis techniques are to be used with general purpose multibody computer codes. In this investigation, modal parameters (modal mass, modal stiffness, modal damping, and mode shapes), which are determined experimentally, are employed to simulate the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a multibody tracked vehicle which consists of interconnected rigid and flexible components. The equations of motion of the vehicle are formulated in terms of a set of modal and reference generalized coordinates, and the theoretical basis for extracting the component modal parameters of the chassis from the modal parameters of the assembled vehicle is described. In this investigation, the track of the vehicle is modeled as a closed kinematic chain that consists of rigid links connected by revolute joints, and the effect of the chassis flexibility on the motion singularities of the track is examined numerically. These singularities which are encountered as the result of the change in the track configuration are avoided by using a deformable secondary joint instead of using the loop-closure equations.

A theoretical model to study the flexural vibration of a bonded lap joint system is described in this paper. First, equations of motion at the joint region are derived using a differential element approach. The transverse displacements of the upper and lower beam are considered to be different. The adhesive is assumed to be linearly viscoelastic and the widely used Kelvin-Voight model is used to represent the viscoelastic behavior of the adhesive. The shear force at the interface between the adhesive and the beam is obtained from the simple bending motion equations of the two beams. The resulting equations of motion are combined with the equations of transverse vibration of the beams in the unjointed regions. These are later solved as a boundary value problem to obtain the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the system. The model can be used to predict the natural frequencies, modal damping ratios, and mode shapes of the system for free vibration. Good agreement between numerical and experimental results was obtained for a system of graphite epoxy beams lap-jointed by an epoxy adhesive.

In operation, rotating bladed disks (blisks) are often subject to high levels of dynamic loading, resulting in large amplitudes of forced vibrations especially at resonance. Moreover, variations in structural properties of individual sectors, referred to as mistuning, can lead to strain energy localization and can amplify forced responses. To prevent damages caused by high cycle fatigue, various frictional damping sources are introduced to dissipate vibration energy. Due to the nonlinear behavior of frictional contacts, conventional methods to study the dynamics of the blisk-damper systems are based often on numerical time integration, which is time-consuming and can be computationally prohibitive due to the large sizes of commercial blisk models. Existing techniques for model reduction either rely heavily on cyclic symmetry of the blisk-damper system, or are based on component mode synthesis (CMS). However, in the presence of mistuning, cyclic symmetry no longer exists. Also, mistuning is random and best studied statistically. Repetitive CMS condensation for a large amount of random mistuning patterns can lead to a computationally formidable task. This paper presents a reduced-order modeling technique to efficiently capture the nonlinear dynamic responses of blisk-damper systems with both small perturbations in blade material properties (small mistuning), and significant changes in the blisk geometries (large mistuning). The reduced-order models (ROMs) are formed by projecting the blisk-damper systems onto a novel mode basis that mimics the contact behavior. This mode basis contains normal mode shapes of the mistuned blisk-damper systems with either sliding or sticking conditions enforced on the contact surfaces. These mode shapes are computed through the N-PRIME method, a technique recently developed by the authors to efficiently obtain mode shapes for blisks with simultaneous large and small mistuning. The resulting modal nonlinear equations of motion are solved by a hybrid frequency/time (HFT) domain method with continuation. In the HFT method, the contact status and friction forces are determined in the time domain by a quasi-two-dimensional contact model at each contact point, whereas the modal equations of motion are solved in the frequency domain according to a harmonic balance formulation. The forced responses computed by the proposed ROMs are validated for two systems with distinct mistuning patterns. A statistical analysis is performed to study the effectiveness of the frictional dampers under random mistuning patterns.
