Discrete Transfer Function

Complex structural dynamic problems are normally analyzed by finite element and numerical integration techniques. An explicit time integration algorithm with second-order accuracy and unconditional stability is presented for dynamic analysis. Utilizing weighted factors, the current displacement and velocity relations are defined in terms of the accelerations of two previous time steps. The concept of discrete transfer function and the pole mapping rule from the control theory are exploited to develop the new algorithm. Several linear and nonlinear dynamic analyses are performed to verify the efficiency of the method compared with the well-known Newmark method.

Difference Formula

This paper presents a new robust and efficient time integration algorithm suitable for various complex nonlinear structural dynamic finite element problems. Based on the idea of composition, the three-point backward difference formula and a generalized central difference formula are combined to constitute the implicit algorithm. Theoretical analysis indicates that the composite algorithm is a single-solver algorithm with satisfactory accuracy, unconditional stability, and second-order convergence rate. Moreover, without any additional parameters, the composite algorithm maintains a symmetric effective stiffness matrix and the computational cost is the same as that of the trapezoidal rule. And more merits of the proposed algorithm are revealed through several representative finite element examples by comparing with analytical solutions or solutions provided by other numerical techniques. Results show that not only the linear stiff problem but also the nonlinear problems involving nonlinearities of geometry, contact, and material can be solved efficiently and successfully by this composite algorithm. Thus the prospect of its implementation in existing finite element codes can be foreseen.

Explicit Time Integration Algorithm

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a new explicit time integration algorithm for solution to the linear and non-linear finite element equations of structural dynamic and wave propagation problems. Design/methodology/approach The algorithm is completely explicit so that no linear equation system requires solving, if the mass matrix of the finite element equation is diagonal and whether the damping matrix does or not. The algorithm is a single-step method that has the simple starting and is applicable to the analysis with the variable time step size. The algorithm is second-order accurate and conditionally stable. Its numerical stability, dissipation and dispersion are analyzed for the dynamic single-degree-of-freedom equation. The stability of the multi-degrees-of-freedom non-proportional damping system can be evaluated directly by the stability theory on ordinary differential equation. Findings The performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by several numerical examples including the linear single-degree-of-freedom problem, non-linear two-degree-of-freedom problem, wave propagation problem in two-dimensional layer and seismic elastoplastic analysis of high-rise structure. Originality/value A new single-step second-order accurate explicit time integration algorithm is proposed to solve the linear and non-linear dynamic finite element equations. The algorithm has advantages on the numerical stability and accuracy over the existing modified central difference method and Chung-Lee method though the theory and numerical analyses.

The Impact

This paper introduces dynamic impact analysis as an effective technique for studying the response of horizontal vibrated conveyor with time-varying impact excitation by the falling of the scrap. A two degree-of-freedoms impact dynamic model is formulated considering the static and dynamic coulomb friction between the scrap and chute. Then the time integration algorithm was applied in the program to solve the dynamic equations. Using the proposed method, the impact effects of ideal single scrap and multiple scraps on the dynamic response of the conveyor were analyzed. Computational results reveal numerous interesting dynamic characteristics which can be used to forecast and control the vibration of the scrap and conveyor system.

Abstract A method of time integration algorithm is presented for solving stiff vibration and motion problems. It is absolutely stable, numerically dissipative, and much accurate than other dissipative time integration methods. It achieves high-frequency dissipation, while minimizing unwanted low-frequency dissipation. In this method change of acceleration during time step is expressed as quadratic function including some parameters, whose appropriate values are determined through numerical investigation. Two calculation examples are demonstrated to show the usefulness of this method.
