An outline of formulation based on a layerwise beam theory for unbalance response and stability analysis of a multi mass, multi bearing composite rotor mounted on fluid film bearings is presented. Disc gyroscopics and rotary inertia effects are accounted for. Material damping is also taken into account. The layerwise theory is compared with conventionally used equivalent modulus beam theory. Some interesting case studies are presented. The effect of various parameters on dynamic behavior and stability of a composite rotor is presented.

In this paper, the extended Reynolds equation proposed by Dousti et al. [1] is applied to predict the dynamic behavior of different fixed geometry bearings used in vertical water pumps. The influence of convective and temporal inertia effects is studied in regular and preloaded multi-lobe bearings. It is shown that the convective inertia is more influential at the presence of preload and higher rotational speeds and alters the stiffness and damping properties of the bearing. The temporal inertia leads to the prediction of considerable lubricant added mass coefficients in the order of journal mass. The stability analysis shows depending upon the geometry of the bearing, the new extended Reynolds equation may predict higher or lower logarithmic decrement.

Presented in this study is investigation of dynamic behavior of a helical gear reduction by experimental and numerical methods. A closed-loop test rig is designed to measure vibrations of the example system, and the basic principle as well as relevant signal processing method is introduced. A hybrid user-defined element model is established to predict relative vibration acceleration at the gear mesh in a direction normal to contact surfaces. The other two numerical models are also constructed by lumped mass method and contact FEM to compare with the previous model in terms of dynamic responses of the system. First, the experiment data demonstrate that the loaded transmission error calculated by LTCA method is generally acceptable and that the assumption ignoring the tooth backlash is valid under the conditions of large loads. Second, under the common operating conditions, the system vibrations obtained by the experimental and numerical methods primarily occur at the first fourth-order meshing frequencies and that the maximum vibration amplitude, for each method, appears on the fourth-order meshing frequency. Moreover, root-mean-square (RMS) value of the acceleration increases with the increasing loads. Finally, according to the comparison of the simulation results, the variation tendencies of the RMS value along with input rotational speed agree well and that the frequencies where the resonances occur keep coincident generally. With summaries of merit and demerit, application of each numerical method is suggested for dynamic analysis of cylindrical gear system, which aids designers for desirable dynamic behavior of the system and better solutions to engineering problems.

AbstractThis study investigates the effects of disk position nonlinearities on the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a rotating flexible shaft-disk system. Displacement of the disk on the shaft causes certain nonlinear terms which appears in the equations of motion, which can in turn affect the dynamic behavior of the system. The system is modeled as a continuous shaft with a rigid disk in different locations. Also, the disk gyroscopic moment is considered. The partial differential equations of motion are extracted under the Rayleigh beam theory. The assumed modes method is used to discretize partial differential equations and the resulting equations are solved via numerical methods. The analytical methods used in this work are inclusive of time series, phase plane portrait, power spectrum, Poincaré map, bifurcation diagrams, and Lyapunov exponents. The effect of disk nonlinearities is studied for some disk positions. The results confirm that when the disk is located at mid-span of the shaft, only the regular motion (period one) is observed. However, periodic, sub-harmonic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic states can be observed for situations in which the disk is located at places other than the middle of the shaft. The results show nonlinear effects are negligible in some cases.

Superposition Technique

Telescopic cranes are usually steel beam systems carrying a load at the tip while comprising at least one constant and one moving part. In this work, an analytical model suitable for the dynamic analysis of telescopic cranes boom is presented. The system considered herein is composed — without losing generality — of two beams. The first one is a jut-out beam on which a variable in time force is moving with constant velocity and the second one is a cantilever with length varying in time that is subjected to its self-weight and a force at the tip also changing with time. As a result, the eigenfrequencies and modal shapes of the second beam are also varying in time. The theoretical formulation is based on a continuum approach employing the modal superposition technique. Various cases of telescopic cranes boom are studied and the analytical results obtained in this work are tabulated in the form of dynamic response diagrams.

This paper presents Maritrans’ groundbreaking experience in rebuilding very large single hull barges into OPA- 90 compliant double hull barges. Details of the process are described along with interesting case studies involving aspects of analysis and construction. The process by which the American Bureau of Shipping certified this barge to be a “Grade 1” under the ABS SafeHull Condition Assessment Program is described in detail. There is a brief discussion of extending this rebuild process to the double hulling of tankers.

In this paper the dynamic behavior of beam-like mechanism systems is investigated. The elastic beam is modeled by finite rigid segments connected by joint springs and dampers. The equations of motion are derived using Kane’s equations. The nonlinear terms are linearized by first order perturbation about a system balanced configuration state leading to geometric stiffness matrices. A simple numerical example of a rotating cantilever beam is presented.
