Vibration Problems

The vibration of a solid elastic cylinder is one of the classical applied problems of elastodynamics. Many fundamental forced-vibration problems involving solid elastic cylinders have not yet been studied or solved using the full three-dimensional (3D) theory of linear elasticity. One such problem is the steady-state forced-vibration response of a simply-supported isotropic solid elastic circular cylinder subjected to two-dimensional harmonic standing-wave excitations on its curved surface. In this paper, we exploit certain recently-obtained particular solutions to the Navier–Lamé equation and exact matrix algebra to construct an exact closed-form 3D elastodynamic solution to the problem. The method of solution is direct and demonstrates a general approach that can be applied to solve other similar forced-vibration problems involving elastic cylinders. The obtained analytical solution is then applied to a specific numerical example, where it is used to determine the frequency response of the displacement field in some low wave number excitation cases. In each case, the solution generates a series of resonances that are in exact correspondence with a subset of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported cylinder. The analytical solution is also used to compute the resonant mode shapes in some selected asymmetric excitation cases. The studied problem is of general interest both as an exactly-solvable 3D elastodynamics problem and as a benchmark forced-vibration problem involving a solid elastic cylinder.

Railway carbody is modeled as a non-circular cylindrical shell with simply-supported ends in this paper. The shell model doesn’t have end plates of the carbody and other equipments attached to actual carbody are neglected. We have applied the transfer matrix method (TMM) to the analysis of three-dimensional elastic vibration problems on the carbody. We also made a 1/12 size carbody model for experimental studies to verify the validity of the numerical simulation. The model has end plates and was placed on soft sponge at both ends of the model to emulate the freely-support. The modal analysis was applied to the experimental model, and natural frequencies and mode shapes of vibration were measured. Comparing the results by TMM and the experiment, natural frequencies and mode shapes of vibration for lower modes show good agreement each other in spite of differences of boundary conditions.

The modal analysis method (MAM) is very useful for obtaining the dynamic responses of a structure in analytical closed forms. In order to use the MAM, accurate information is needed on the natural frequencies, mode shapes, and orthogonality of the mode shapes a priori. A thorough literature survey reveals that the necessary information reported in the existing literature is sometimes very limited or incomplete, even for simple beam models such as Timoshenko beams. Thus, we present complete information on the natural frequencies, three types of mode shapes, and the orthogonality of the mode shapes for simply supported Timoshenko beams. Based on this information, we use the MAM to derive the forced vibration responses of a simply supported Timoshenko beam subjected to arbitrary initial conditions and to stationary or moving loads (a point transverse force and a point bending moment) in analytical closed form. We then conduct numerical studies to investigate the effects of each type of mode shape on the long-term dynamic responses (vibrations), the short-term dynamic responses (waves), and the deformed shapes of an example Timoshenko beam subjected to stationary or moving point loads.

The vibration characteristics of a nonuniform, flexible and free-flying slender rocket experiencing constant thrust is investigated. The rocket is idealized as a classic nonuniform beam with a constant one-dimensional follower force and with free-free boundary conditions. The equations of motion are derived by applying the extended Hamilton’s principle for non-conservative systems. Natural frequencies and associated mode shapes of the rocket are determined using the relatively efficient and accurate Adomian modified decomposition method (AMDM) with the solutions obtained by solving a set of algebraic equations with only three unknown parameters. The method can easily be extended to obtain approximate solutions to vibration problems for any type of nonuniform beam.

AbstractAnalytical Strip Method is presented for the analysis of the bending-extension coupling problem of stiffened and continuous antisymmetric thin laminates. A system of three equations of equilibrium, governing the general response of antisymmetric laminates, is reduced to a single eighth-order partial differential equation (PDE) in terms of a displacement function. The PDE is then solved in a single series form to determine the displacement response of antisymmetric cross-ply and angle-ply laminates. The solution is applicable to rectangular laminates with two opposite edges simply supported and the other edges being free, clamped, simply supported, isotropic beam supports, or point supports.

The free vibration of cylindrical shells filled with a compressible viscous fluid has been studied by numerous workers using the linearized Navier-Stokes equations, the fluid continuity equation, and Flu¨gge ’s equations of motion for thin shells. It happens that solutions can be obtained for which the interface conditions at the shell surface are satisfied. Formally, a characteristic equation for the system eigenvalues can be written down, and solutions are usually obtained numerically providing some insight into the physical mechanisms. In this paper, we modify the usual approach to this problem, use a more rigorous mathematical solution and limit the discussion to a single thin shell of infinite length and finite radius, totally filled with a viscous, compressible fluid. It is shown that separable solutions are obtained only in a particular gage, defined by the divergence of the fluid velocity vector potential, and the solutions are unique to that gage. The complex frequency dependence for the transverse component of the fluid velocity field is shown to be a result of surface interaction between the compressional and vortex motions in the fluid and that this motion is confined to the boundary layer near the surface. Numerical results are obtained for the first few wave modes of a large shell, which illustrate the general approach to the solution. The axial wave number is complex for wave propagation, the imaginary part being the spatial attenuation coefficient. The frequency is also complex, the imaginary part of which is the temporal damping coefficient. The wave phase velocity is related to the real part of the axial wave number and turns out to be independent of frequency, with numerical value lying between the sonic velocities in the fluid and the shell. The frequency dependencies of these parameters and fluid velocity field mode shapes are computed for a typical case and displayed in non-dimensional graphs.

This paper reports on the instability for the meniscus of a thin film of a very viscous liquid between two tilted plates, which are separated at a constant speed with a tilt angle in the normal direction of the plates. The disturbances on the meniscus moving with movement of the plates are examined experimentally and theoretically. The disturbances are started when the velocity of movement of the plates exceeds a critical one. The wavelength of the disturbances is measured by using a VTR. The instability of the meniscus is studied theoretically using the linearized perturbation method. A simple and complete analytical solution yields both a stability criterion and the wave number for a linear thickness geometry. These results compared with experiments for the instability show the validity of the stability criterion and the best agreement is obtained with the wave number of maximum amplification.

Forced vibration analysis of two dimensional bridge deck structures involves complex mathematical procedures and therefore analysis is often based on beam idealization of equivalent plates. This simplification yields close agreement only for long span bridges where plate action is relatively insignificant. However, such a concept of beam idealization cannot be successfully utilized in the case of short span bridges where plate action is predominant and where the determination of the distribution of dynamic deflections and amplification factors at critical sections of such plates is of prime concern. The principal objective of the present investigation is the forced vibration analysis of longitudinally stiffened, simply supported orthotropic bridge decks utilizing a new concept of interconnected beam idealization. The theoretical analysis deals with determination of amplification factors and dynamic deflections along critical sections of the plate treated as a series of interconnected beams. The aspect ratios of the plates under investigation as series of interconnected beams are designed to cover a wide range of plate to beam transition. The theoretical analysis is supplemented by an extensive experimental programme.In conclusion, it is seen that this concept of interconnected beam idealization not only takes into account the plate action of the deck structure but also reduces greatly the complexity of mathematical formulation. A good comparison between the theoretical and the experimental results indicates that this concept can be used to advantage for analysis and, within certain limitations, for design purposes.
