Generally speaking, a vibration system consists of three parts: vibration resource, vibration transfer path, and vibration receiver. Based on the dynamic sensitivity technique, this paper proposes a method for evaluating the contribution of each vibration transfer path to the dynamic response of the vibration receiver. Nonlinear stiffness is an important factor in causing the nonlinearity of vibration systems. Taking sensitivity as the evaluation criteria, we present an effective approach for estimating the influence of nonlinear stiffness in vibration transfer paths on the dynamic response of the vibration receiver. Using the proposed method, the sensitivity of the vibration system with multiple and/or multidimensional transfer paths could be determined in the time domain.

The time-domain substructure inverse matrix method has become a popular method to detect and diagnose problems regarding vehicle noise, vibration, and harshness, especially for those impulse excitations caused by roads. However, owning to its reliance on frequency response functions (FRFs), the approach is effective only for time-invariable linear or weak nonlinear systems. This limitation prevents this method from being applied to a typical vehicle suspension substructure, which shows different nonlinear characteristics under different wheel transient loads. In this study, operational excitation was considered as a key factor and applied to calculate dynamic time-varying FRFs to perform accurate time-domain transient vibration transfer path analysis (TPA). The core idea of this novel method is to divide whole coupled substructural relationships into two parts: one involved time-invariable components; normal FRFs could be obtained through tests directly. The other involved numerical computations of the time-domain operational loads matrix and FRFs matrix in static conditions. This method focused on determining dynamic FRFs affected by operational loads, especially the severe transient ones; these loads are difficult to be considered in other classical TPA approaches, such as operational path analysis with exogenous inputs (OPAX) and operational transfer path analysis (OTPA). Experimental results showed that this new approach could overcome the limitations of the traditional time-domain substructure TPA in terms of its strict requirements within time-invariable systems. This is because in the new method, time-varying FRFs were calculated and used, which could make the FRFs at the system level directly adapt to time-varying systems from time to time. In summary, the modified method extends TPA objects studied in time-invariable systems to time-varying systems and, thus, makes a methodology and application innovation compared to traditional the time-domain substructure TPA.

Significant differences between the predicted and measured dynamic response of 3D rigid foundations on multi-layered soils in the time domain were identified due to the existence of uncertainties, which makes the issue a complicated one. In this study, a numerical method was developed to determine the dynamic responses of 3D rigid surfaces and embedded foundations of arbitrary shapes that are bonded to a multi-layered soil in the time domain. First, the dynamic stiffness matrices of the rigid foundations in the frequency domain are calculated via integral domain transformation. Secondly, a dynamic stiffness equation for rigid foundations in the time domain is established via the mixed variables formulation, which is based on the discrete dynamic stiffness matrices in the frequency domain. The proposed method can be applied to the treatment of systems with multiple degrees of freedom without losing the true information that concerns the coupling characteristics. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method for predicting the horizontal, vertical, rocking, and torsional vibrations. Further, a parametric study was carried out to provide insight into the dynamic behavior of the soil–foundation interaction (SFI) while considering soil nonhomogeneity. The results indicate that the elastic modulus of the soil has a significant impact on the dynamic responses of the rigid foundation. Finally, a numerical example of a rigid foundation resting on a six-layered, semi-infinite soil demonstrates that the proposed method can be used to deal with multi-layered media in the time domain in a relatively easy way.

In this paper, we solve the dynamic response of an inhomogeneous elastic pile embedded in a multilayered saturated soil and subjected to a transient torsional load via a semianalytical method. To portray the inhomogeneity of the pile and the stratification of surrounding soil, the pile-soil system is subdivided into Nth layers along the depth direction in view of the variation of shear modulus or cross-sectional dimension of the pile or differences in soil properties. Then, the vibration displacement solution with undermined constants for any saturated soil layer subjected to the time-harmonic torsional load is obtained by virtue of the separation of variables scheme. To establish the connection of adjacent longitudinal soil layers, the circumferential contact traction at the interface of the adjacent layers is treated as the distributed Winkler subgrade model independent of the radial distance. Then, by utilizing the continuity conditions of the pile-soil system and the method of recursion typically used in the transfer function technique, the torsional impedance of the pile top can be derived in the frequency domain. By virtue of inverse Fourier transform and convolution theorem, the velocity response of an inhomogeneous pile subjected to a transient half-sine exciting torque and embedded in a layered saturated soil is gained in the time domain. Finally, selected numerical results are gained to investigate the influence of typical defects in pile and soil layering on the velocity response of the pile top in the time domain.

AbstractIn deep-sea mining, the coupling dynamic response between the mining vessel and the lifting pipe is a significant problem, which directly affects the structural design of the lifting system and the safety of field operation. The characteristics of coupled motion model have not been fully considered in the existing research. Therefore, this paper uses time-domain coupled numerical model as the research object, considering ocean current, surface wave, pipe dynamics and vessel-pipe contact mechanics, to study the dynamic behavior of the lifting pipe and mining vessel during the process of deep-sea mining using AQWA and OrcaFlex softwares. The response amplitude operator (RAO) is used to compare the measured and simulations dynamic response of the mining vessel. There is a very good agreement in RAO between the experiments and simulations. The coupling simulation results show that the coupling effect has a significant effect on the time domain dynamic response of the lifting pipe, but has little effect on the average effective tension and longitudinal amplitude along the pipe length. The research results of this paper are of great significance to the safety design of deep-sea mining lifting system and the planning of deep-sea operation activities.

Move performance in six-degree-of-freedom is one of the important indexes of hydro-dynamic property of tension leg platform (TLP). This paper discusses the time domain dynamic response characteristics of a tension leg platform in the regular wave. The paper focuses on the effects of the incident wave angles (15 °, 22.5 ° and 45 °), the wave height (6m, 8m and 10m) and the wave period (10s, 12s and 14s) on the movement of tension leg platform, the top tension of the tension leg. The results show that: because of the different sensitivity of the tension leg platform to the incident wave angle, the wave height and the wave period, the motion characteristics is different.

The experiment of chaotic exponent extraction is carried out on the basis of nonlinear vibration system, and the responses under different conditions are processed with the improved algorithm. Firstly, the weighted wavelet denoise method is applied to filter the contaminated noise. Then, on the basis of fast search technology i.e. space grid hiberarchy inquiry method, the chaos characteristic exponent extraction algorithm is modified and applied to LE and fractal dimension calculation. Finally the piece-wise vibration system is designed, and the nonlinear dynamics under different harmonic frequencies excitation are analyzed. The comprehensive chaos judgment program is developed, in which the time domain diagram, phase space reconstruction attractor, Lyapunov exponent, fractal dimension curve of the measured data are obtained. The interesting phenomena such as AM modulation, limited cycle, and strange attractor are observed.
