Aiming at the problems of strong vibration, inconsistent subsoiling depth and high failure rate of air-pressure subsoiler, air-pressure subsoiler vibration characteristics was studied. In order to decrease the vibration, For the first time, the vibration characteristics of air-pressure subsoiler were obtained by modal analysis and vibration test. The vibration characteristics of the whole air-blown subsoiler are analyzed Through time domain analysis, it is found that the vibration acceleration of four deep loosening shovel is inconsistent. When the diesel engine is started, it is easy to cause inconsistent subsoiler depth. Then, by analyzing the vibration characteristics of the whole air-pressure subsoiler, it can be known that the external excitation source of the air-blown subsoiler is close to its own natural frequency. In order to avoid resonance caused by the vibration frequency of the external excitation source being close to the natural frequency of the air-pressure subsoiler, and to reduce the inconsistency of the subsoil depth, we optimize the design of air-pressure subsoiler. Instead of diesel engines, the steering gear box is connected with tractor power output shaft to provide power. The modal simulation of the optimized air-pressure subsoiler shows that the first-order natural frequency is obviously improved and the external excitation frequency is successfully avoided. It not only avoids resonance, reduces the damage of resonance components, but improves the service life of the subsoiler, greatly improves the structural reliability of the air-pressure subsoiler, at the same time, removes the main external excitation source, which greatly reduces the vibration in actual production and the inconsistency of subsoiling, which is of great significance in actual production. It provides a reference for the research of vibration characteristics, resonance avoidance and structure optimization of agricultural equipment.

This paper aimed to study the longitudinal vibration characteristics of the 5000 m mining pipe in the ocean under different working wind conditions, offset angle, damping, and ore bin weight. Based on the finite element method, the mining pipe is simplified into beam element and discretized, and the physical and mathematical models of the mining pipe system are established. The Wilson-θ direct integral method is adopted for numerical calculation. The results show that the longitudinal vibration of the mining pipe is irregular, which presents the phenomenon of oscillation. The vibration amplitude decreases first and then increases from top to bottom, the minimum vibration amplitude appears at 1000 m, and the maximum vibration amplitude appears at the top of the mining pipe. Under the same working wind condition, the overall longitudinal vibration amplitude of the mining pipe can be increased by increasing the ore bin weight and the offset angle, but neither of them can change the frequency of the longitudinal vibration. The closer the excitation frequency generated by different working wind conditions is to the natural frequency, the larger the mining pipe longitudinal vibration amplitude is. The closer the vibration frequency generated by the same excitation frequency is to the natural frequency, the stronger the vibration intensity is, and when damping is added, the vibration intensity decreases faster.

The longitudinal axial flow threshing cylinder of the full feeding rice combine harvester is widely used in China and works with violent vibration. To explore the source of the excitation affecting the vibration and to reduce the vibration, a finite element modal analysis and multipoint input and multipoint output (MIMO) modal test were performed to solve the natural vibration characteristics. By analyzing the excitation frequency, we concluded that the main reason for the resonance was the coupling between the rotation frequency of the threshing cylinder and the first natural frequency. To avoid the influence of resonance and realize a lightweight design, we proposed a combination of size optimization and topology optimization. The second rotation orthogonal combination test was designed to analyze the first natural frequency, maximum stress, and maximum deformation of the threshing cylinder, and the threshing cylinder was reconstructed as a central symmetrical structure to balance the rotational inertia force. The field experiment results showed that the amplitudes of the optimized threshing cylinder were significantly lower than those of the original threshing cylinder. This study provides ideas for solving the vibration characteristics of rotating parts and provides an important reference for the design of vibration reduction and weight reduction of key parts in the field of agricultural machinery.

Purpose: The operation of engineering structures may cause various type of damages like cracks, alterations. Such kind of defects can lead to change in vibration characteristics of cantilever beam. The superposition of frequency causes resonance leading to amplitude built up and failure of beam. The current research investigates the effect of crack dimensional parameters on vibrational characteristics of cantilever beam. Design/methodology/approach: The CAD design and FE simulation studies are conducted in ANSYS 20 simulation package. The natural frequencies, mode shapes and response surface plots are generated, and comparative studies are performed. The effect of crack dimensional parameters is then investigated using Taguchi Design of Experiments. The statistical method of central composite design (CCD) scheme in Response Surface Optimization is used to generated various design points based on variation of crack width and crack depth. Findings: The research findings have shown that crack depth or crack height have significant effect on magnitude of deformation and natural frequency. The deformation is minimum at 0.009 m crack height and reaches maximum value at 0.011 m crack height. Research limitations/implications: The crack induced in the cantilever beam needs to be repaired properly in order to avoid crack propagation due to resonance. The present study enabled to determine frequencies of external excitation which should be avoided. The limitation of current research is the type of crack studied which is transverse type. The effect of longitudinal cracks on vibration characteristics is not investigated. Practical implications: The study on mass participation factor has shown maximum value for torsional frequency which signifies that any external excitation along this direction should be avoided which could cause resonance and lead to amplitude build up. Originality/value: The beams are used in bridge girders and other civil structures which are continuously exposed to moist climate. The moisture present in the air causes corrosion which initiates crack. This crack propagates and alters the natural frequency of beam.

The nonlinear vibration control of a nonlinear dynamical system modeled as the well-known Duffing oscillators is investigated within this article. The conventional Positive Position Feedback (PPF) controller is proposed to mitigate the considered system nonlinear vibrations. The whole system mathematical model is analyzed by applying the multiple time scales perturbation method. The slow-flow modulation equations that govern the oscillation amplitudes of both the main system and controller are derived. The stability analysis is investigated based on Lyapunov’s first method. The effects of the different control parameters on both the main system and controller are explored. The obtained analytical and numerical results illustrated that the PPF controller can eliminate the main system nonlinear vibrations once the controller natural frequency is tuned to be the same value as the external excitation frequency, otherwise, the controller adds excessive vibrational energy to the main system rather than suppressing it. In addition, the PPF controller can destabilize the main system motion when excited by strong excitation force. Therefore, a modified version of the PPF controller named the Adaptive Positive Position Feedback (APPF) controller is proposed to overcome the main drawbacks of the conventional PPF controller. The idea is to track the external excitation frequency using an adaptive frequency measurement technique to update continuously the PPF controller natural frequency to become the same value of the excitation frequency. Based on this strategy, the system mathematical model is analyzed again by making the controller’s natural frequency equal to the external excitation frequency. The obtained analytical and numerical simulations showed that the adaptive positive position feedback controller can suppress the main system nonlinear vibration close to zero regardless of the excitation force amplitude and excitation frequency.

Many structures such as automobile bodies, bridges and buildings are subjected to external forces due to the nature of the environment in which they exist. When the external excitation frequency is similar to the structure’s natural frequency a resonance effect is generated, increasing the energy and the amplitude of the oscillation, often causing catastrophic situations. This paper presents a method to decrease such resonant oscillations using magnetorheological dampers.

AbstractIt is well-known that practical vibro-impact systems are often influenced by random perturbations and external excitation forces, making it challenging to carry out the research of this category of complex systems with non-smooth characteristics. To address this problem, by adequately utilizing the stochastic response analysis approach and performing the stochastic response for the considered non-smooth system with the external excitation force and white noise excitation, a modified conducting process has proposed. Taking the multiple nonlinear parameters, the non-smooth parameters, and the external excitation frequency into consideration, the steady-state stochastic P-bifurcation phenomena of an elastic impact oscillator are discussed. It can be found that the system parameters can make the system stability topology change. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified and demonstrated by the Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. Consequently, the conclusions show that the process can be applied to stochastic non-autonomous and non-smooth systems.

Delamination is definitely an important topic in the area of composite structures as it progressively worsens the mechanical performance of fiber-reinforced polymer composite structures in its service period. The detection and severity analysis of delaminations in engineering areas like the aviation industry is vital for safety and economic considerations. The existence of delaminations varies the vibration characteristics such as natural frequencies, mode shapes, etc. of composites and hence this indication can be effectively used for locating and quantifying the delaminations. The changes in vibration characteristics are considered as inputs for the inverse problem to determine the location and size of delaminations. In this paper Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is used for delamination evaluationof glass fiber-reinforced composite beams using natural frequency as typical vibration parameter. The Finite Element Analysis is used for generating the required dataset for ANN. The frequency-based delamination prediction technique is validated by finite element models and experimental modal analysis. The results indicate that the ANN-based back propagation algorithm can predict the location and size of delaminations in composites with good accuracy for numerical natural frequency data but the accuracy is comparitivelyless for experimental natural frequency data.

Analysis of the linear vibration characteristics of unconstrained rotating isotropic thin disks leads to the important concept of “critical speeds.” These critical rotational speeds are of interest because they correspond to the situation where a natural frequency of the rotating disk, as measured by a stationary observer, is zero. Such speeds correspond physically to the speeds at which a traveling circumferential wave, of shape corresponding to the mode shape of the natural frequency being considered, travel around the disk in the absence of applied forces. At such speeds, according to linear theory, the blade may respond as a space fixed stationary wave and an applied space fixed dc force may induce a resonant condition in the disk response. Thus, in general, linear theory predicts that for rotating disks, with low levels of damping, large responses may be encountered in the region of the critical speeds due to the application of constant space fixed forces. However, large response invalidates the predictions of linear theory which has neglected the nonlinear stiffness produced by the effect of in-plane forces induced by large displacements. In the present paper, experimental studies were conducted in order to measure the frequency response characteristics of rotating disks both in an idling mode as well as when subjected to a space fixed lateral force. The applied lateral force (produced by an air jet) was such as to produce displacements large enough that non linear geometric effects were important in determining the disk frequencies. Experiments were conducted on thin annular disks of different thickness with the inner radius clamped to the driving arbor and the outer radius free. The results of these experiments are presented with an emphasis on recording the effects of geometric nonlinearities on lateral frequency response. In a companion paper (Khorasany and Hutton, 2010, “Vibration Characteristics of Rotating Thin Disks—Part II: Analytical Predictions,” ASME J. Mech., 79(4), p. 041007), analytical predictions of such disk behavior are presented and compared with the experimental results obtained in this study. The experimental results show that in the case where significant disk displacements are induced by a lateral force, the frequency characteristics are significantly influenced by the magnitude of forced displacements.

Self-pierce riveting (SPR) technology offers an alternative to resistance spot welding (RSW) for joining sheet materials. It has been found that the SPR technology produced a much stronger joint than the RSW in fatigue test. For efficient design of SPR structures, the knowledge of dynamic characteristics of the SPR beams is essential. In this paper, the free transverse vibration characteristics of single lap-jointed cantilevered SPR beams are investigated in detail. The focus of the analysis is to reveal the influence on the natural frequency and natural frequency ratio of these beams caused by variations in the material properties of sheet materials to be jointed. It is shown that the transverse natural frequencies of single lap jointed cantilevered SPR beams increase significantly as the Young’s modulus of the sheet materials increases, but change slightly corresponding to the change in Poisson’s ratio. It is also found that the material density of the sheets have significant effects on the free transverse vibration characteristics of the beams.
