Here we present a theoretical analysis on the nonlinear free vibration of a tri-cross string system, which is an element of space net-antennas. We derived the governing equations from Hamilton’s principle and obtained a linearized solution by the standard perturbation method. The semi-analytical solutions of the governing equations have not been provided referring to the solution of plate vibrating problem. This analysis revealed that natural frequencies of the tri-cross string depend on the vibration amplitude due to the geometrical nonlinearity in the constitutive equation. The geometric parameters, such as the diameters and the lengths of the constituent strings, also affect the frequency through the nonlinearity of the tri-cross string. The nonlinear natural frequency shows coupled characteristic; that is, the natural frequency of the tri-cross string varies with that of the constituent strings, but the contribution of each constituent string to the natural frequency is in different proportions.

In this work analytical solutions are developed to study the free vibration of composite beams under axial loading. The beam with a single delamination is modeled as four interconnected Euler-Bernoulli beams using the delamination as their boundary. The continuity and the equilibrium conditions are satisfied between the adjoining beams. The studies show that the sizes and the locations of the delaminations significantly influence the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the beam. A monotonic relation between the natural frequency and the axial load is predicted.

Nonlinear free vibration of micro-beams based on the Timoshenko beam model is studied. The governing equations of motion using the strain gradient theory, Von Kármán strain tensors and Hamiltonian principle, are developed. The Galerkin method is applied to the governing equations and the coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations of system are obtained. The variational iteration method is utilized to determine the time responses of the micro-beam and also a close form expression for the frequency-amplitude is found. The analytical solutions obtained for different values of parameters are compared with those found from different numerical methods. The effects of geometrical and physical parameters on the dynamics of micro-beam are also examined. Moreover, the analytical formulation for frequency ratio, i.e., the ratio of nonlinear natural frequency to the linear one is obtained and the sensitivity of this ratio to the variations of various parameters is evaluated. It is proved that the proposed solution methods and the results obtained are accurate and reliable when dynamics of such micro structures are studied.

AbstractRecently, basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) is acknowledged as an outstanding material for the strengthening of existing concrete structure, especially it was being used in marine vehicles, aerospace, automotive and nuclear engineering. Most of the structures were subjected to severe dynamic loading during their service life that may induce vibration of the structures. However, free vibration studied on the basalt laminates composite plates with elliptical cut-out and correlation of natural frequency with buckling load has been very limited. Therefore, effects of the elliptical hole on the natural frequency of basalt/epoxy composite plates was performed in this study. Effects of stacking sequence (θ), elliptical hole inclination (ϕ), hole geometric ratio (a/b) and position of the elliptical hole were considered. The numerical modeling of free vibration analysis was based on the mechanical properties of BFRP obtained from the experiment. The natural frequencies as well as mode shapes of basalt laminates composite plates were numerically determined using the commercial program software (ABAQUS). Then, the determination of correlation of natural frequencies with buckling load was carried out. Results showed that elliptical hole inclination and fiber orientation angle induced the inverse proportion between natural frequency and buckling load.

This study focused on the in-plane free vibration of uniform circular arches made of axially functionally graded (AFG) materials. Based on the dynamic equilibrium of an arch element, the governing equations for the free vibration of an AFG arch are derived in this study, where arbitrary functions for the Young’s modulus and mass density are acceptable. For the purpose of numerical analysis, quadratic polynomials for the Young’s modulus and mass density are considered. To calculate the natural frequencies and corresponding mode shapes, the governing equations are solved using the direct integral method enhanced by the trial eigenvalue method. For verification purposes, the predicted frequencies are compared to those obtained by the general purpose software ADINA. A parametric study of the end constraint, rotatory inertia, modular ratio, radius parameter, and subtended angle for the natural frequencies is conducted and the corresponding mode shapes are reported.

Thermal effects on the natural frequency for the nonlinear free vibration of co-rotating disks are investigated for non-uniform temperature distributions relative to airflow induced by disk rotation. The natural frequencies for symmetric and asymmetric responses of a 3.5 inch diameter computer memory disk are calculated. When the disk is heated, its stiffness becomes larger for the two lowest nodal diameter numbers and smaller for the other nodal diameter numbers. It implies that the vibration of heated, rotating disks for the higher nodal diameter numbers may be induced more easily than the cooled one.

This paper reviewed the research on the nonlinear free vibration of pre-stressed orthotropic membrane, which is commonly applied in building membrane structures. We applied the L-P perturbation method to solve the governing equations of large amplitude nonlinear free vibration of rectangular orthotropic membranes and obtained a simple approximate analytical solution of the frequency and displacement function of large amplitude nonlinear free vibration of rectangular membrane with four edges simply supported. By giving computational examples, we compared and analyzed the frequency results. In addition, vibration mode of the membrane and displacement and time curve of each feature point on the membrane surface were analyzed in the computational example. Results obtained from this paper provide a simple and convenient method to calculate the frequency and lateral displacement of nonlinear free vibration of rectangular orthotropic membranes in large amplitude. Meanwhile, the results provide some theoretical basis for solving the response of membrane structures under dynamic loads and provide some computational basis for the vibration control and dynamic design of building membrane structures.

Nonlinear vibration computational problem of isotropic thin plates in large amplitude was investigated here. We applied the Von Kármán’s theory of thin plates to derive the governing equations of nonlinear free vibration of isotropic thin plates, and solved the governing equations by direct integration method combined with power series expansion method. We obtained the power series solution of the nonlinear vibration frequency of the rectangular thin plates with four edges simply supported. Finally, the paper gave the computational example and compared the two results from the large amplitude theory and the small one, respectively. Results obtained from this paper provide a new analytical computational approach for calculating the frequency of nonlinear free vibration of isotropic thin plates in large amplitude, and provide more accurate theoretical basis for the vibration control and dynamic design of plate structures.

In this paper, the differential transformation approach is applied to analyze the free vibration of centrifugally stiffened Timoshenko beam structures. Such structures involve variable coefficients in the governing equations, which in general cannot be solved analytically in closed form. Both the natural frequencies and the mode shapes are obtained using the differential transformation technique. Numerical examples are presented and results are compared with available results in the literature.
