In order to analyze the dynamic response of medium-speed maglev train in the speed range of 0–200 km/h, the suspension performance, suspended energy consumption, and riding comfort of the train stimulated by random track irregularities are discussed in this paper. Firstly, the model of medium-speed maglev train including car body, air spring vibration isolation system, and the suspension system is established. Then, a controller based on flux inner feedback loop and PID outer feedback loop is designed for the suspension system. The established model is stimulated by the actual track power spectrum in full speed range. The simulation results show that the fluctuation of suspension gap is less than ±4 mm. Furthermore, thanks to the adding of permanent magnet, the power consumption is significantly reduced, which is of benefit to the electromagnet heating problem and on-board levitation power supply system. The riding comfort of the train moving on the irregular track using Sperling index is assessed. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed analytical calculation model of medium-speed maglev train. It is shown that medium-speed maglev train achieved good performance, significant power reduction, and satisfactory riding comfort.

In design of solar powered aircraft wing panel, vibration properties of wing panel should be considered, especially for the peak value of dynamic response. In this research, a viscoelastic damping layer is built for vibration isolation, wing panel finite element models of stiffened and no-stiffened structures base on fiber-reinforced laminates with damping layer in the middle are built. Natural frequency and displacement response are analyzed with different thickness of damping layer and structures. Result shows natural frequencies decrease as thickness increased, and that of laminates are lower than stiffened structure. The maximum displacement response value decreased when thickness increased and that of laminates is higher than structured with stiffer. The presented work is helpful for type selection and designing of solar powered aircraft wing panel.

The dynamic response of a simply supported double-beam system under moving loads was studied. First, in order to reduce the difficulty of solving the equation, a finite sin-Fourier transform was used to transform the infinite-degree-of-freedom double-beam system into a superimposed two-degrees-of-freedom system. Second, Duhamel’s integral was used to obtain the analytical expression of Fourier amplitude spectrum function considering the initial conditions. Finally, based on finite sin-Fourier inverse transform, the analytical expression of dynamic response of a simply supported double-beam system under moving loads was deduced. The dynamic response under successive moving loads was calculated by the analytical method and the general FEM software ANSYS. The analysis results show that the analytical method calculation results are consistent with ANSYS’ calculation, thus validating the analytical calculation method. The simply supported double-beam system had multiple critical speeds, and the flexural rigidity significantly affected both peak vertical displacement and critical speed.

AbstractThe negative stiffness exhibited by bi-stable mechanisms together with the tunable superelasticity offered by shape memory alloy (SMA) wires can enhance the dynamic resilience of a structure in the context of vibration isolation. The effects of negative stiffness and superelastic damping in base-isolated structures are here explored by carrying out an extensive study of the nonlinear dynamic response via pathfollowing, bifurcation analysis, and time integration. The frequency-response curves of the isolated structure, with and without the negative stiffness contribution, are numerically obtained for different excitation amplitudes to construct the acceleration and displacement transmissibility curves. The advantages of negative stiffness, such as damping augmentation and reduced acceleration/displacement transmissibility, as well as the existence of rich bifurcation scenarios toward quasi-periodicity and chaos, are discussed.

Abstract Vibration isolation devices are generally applied to equipment that dislikes vibration installed in buildings. Since the vibration isolator is intended for small vibration input, the damage has been frequently confirmed with excessive vibration input such as an huge earthquake motion. Therefore, the development of a seismic isolation device with a vibration isolation function is desired for important equipment and expensive manufacturing equipment. However, the vibration region targeted by the vibration isolator and the vibration region of the seismic input are at completely different levels. In this study, the authors propose a seismic isolation system using air floating technique to cope with such different vibration levels. In this paper, basic concept, basic performance, preliminary performance evaluation by nonlinear time response analysis, and performance evaluation by shaking table test.
