Transverse non-linear vibration is investigated in principal parametric resonance of an axially accelerating viscoelastic beam. The axial speed is characterized as a simple harmonic variation about a constant mean speed. The material time derivative is used in the viscoelastic constitutive relation. The transverse motion can be governed by a non-linear partial-differential equation or a non-linear integro-partial-differential equation. The method of multiple scales is applied to the governing equations to determine steady-state responses. It is confirmed that the mode uninvolved in the resonance has no effect on the steady-state response. The differential quadrature schemes are developed to verify results via the method of multiple scales. It is demonstrated that the straight equilibrium configuration becomes unstable and a stable steady-state emerges when the axial speed variation frequency is close to twice any linear natural frequency. The results derived for two governing equations are qualitatively the same, but quantitatively different. Numerical simulations are presented to examine the effects of the mean speed and the variation of the amplitude of the axial speed, the dynamic viscosity, the non-linear coefficients, and the boundary constraint stiffness on the instability interval and the steady-state response amplitude.

Abstract In Part I of this two-part paper, a new benchmark transient model of Inductrack systems is developed. In this Part II, the proposed model, which is governed by a set of non-linear integro-differential governing equations, is used to predict the dynamic response of Inductrack systems. In the development, a state-space representation of the non-linear governing equations is established and a numerical procedure with a specific moving circuit window for transient solutions is designed. The dynamic analysis of Inductrack systems with the proposed model has two major tasks. First, the proposed model is validated through comparison with the noted steady-state results in the literature. Second, the transient response of an Inductrack system is simulated and analyzed in several typical dynamic scenarios. The steady-state response results predicted by the new model agree with those obtained in the previous studies. On the other hand, the transient response simulation results reveal that an ideal steady-state response can hardly exist in those investigated dynamic scenarios. It is believed that the newly developed transient model provides a useful tool for dynamic analysis of Inductrack systems and for in-depth understanding of the complicated electro-magneto-mechanical interactions in this type of dynamic systems.

Nonlinear models of transverse vibration of axially moving viscoelastic beams subjected external transverse loads via steady-state periodical response are numerically investigated. An integro-partial-differential equation and a partial-differential equation of transverse motion can be derived respectively from a model of the coupled planar vibration for an axially moving beam. The finite difference scheme is developed to calculate steady-state response for the model of coupled planar and the two models of transverse motion under the simple support boundary. Numerical results indicate that the amplitude of the steady-state response for the model of coupled vibration and two models of transverse vibration predict qualitatively the same tendencies with the changing parameters and the integro-partial-differential equation gives results more closely to the coupled planar vibration.

In this paper, the large amplitude free vibration of a cantilever Timoshenko beam is considered. To this end, first Hamilton’s principle is used in deriving the partial differential equation of the beam response under the mentioned conditions. Then, implementing the Galerkin’s method the partial differential equation is converted to an ordinary nonlinear differential equation. Finally, the method of multiple scales is used to determine a second order perturbation solution for the obtained ODE. The results show that nonlinearity acts in the direction of increasing the natural frequency of the thick-cantilevered beam.

We use several methods to study the nonlinear modes of one-dimensional continuous systems with cubic inertia and geometric nonlinearities. Invariant manifold and perturbation methods applied to the discretized system and the method of multiple scales applied to the partial-differential equation and boundary conditions are discussed and their equivalence is demonstrated. The method of multiple scales is then applied directly to the partial-differential equation and boundary conditions governing several nonlinear beam problems.
