In mechanical systems the static deflection of the elastic elements is usual not appeared in the equations of motion. The reason is that either a linear model of the elastic elements or their too small static deflection assumption was accepted. In the present paper both nonlinear model of elastic elements and their large static deflection are considered, so that the nonlinear terms in the equation of motion appear with different degrees of smallness. In this case the nonlinearity of the system depends not only on the nonlinear characteristic of the elastic element but on its static deflection. The distinguishing feature of the system under consideration is that if the elastic element has soft characteristic, the nonlinear system also belongs to the soft one. If the elastic element has hard characteristic, the system may be either soft or hard or neutral type, depending on the relation between the parameters of the elastic element and its static deflection.

The article analyzes elastic elements with a nonlinear characteristic. To improve the smoothness of a truck, a combined elastic element is proposed, including a semi-eleptic spring and an air cylinder, for installation in the rear axle suspension of a car. In order to assess the effect of a combined elastic element with a nonlinear characteristic on the smoothness of the ride, a mathematical model has been developed. The mathematical model allows for a numerical experiment taking into account the nature of the interaction of tires with unevenness of the roadway and the nonlinear characteristics of the combined elastic element.

Abstract The “pole-skipping” phenomenon reflects that the retarded Green’s function is not unique at a pole-skipping point in momentum space (ω, k). We explore the universality of pole-skipping in different geometries. In holography, near horizon analysis of the bulk equation of motion is a more straightforward way to derive a pole-skipping point. We use this method in Lifshitz, AdS2 and Rindler geometries. We also study the complex hydrodynamic analyses and find that the dispersion relations in terms of dimensionless variables $$ \frac{\omega }{2\pi T} $$ ω 2 πT and $$ \frac{\left|k\right|}{2\pi T} $$ k 2 πT pass through pole-skipping points $$ \left(\frac{\omega_n}{2\pi T},\frac{\left|{k}_n\right|}{2\pi T}\right) $$ ω n 2 πT k n 2 πT at small ω and k in the Lifshitz background. We verify that the position of the pole-skipping points does not depend on the standard quantization or alternative quantization of the boundary theory in AdS2× ℝd−1 geometry. In the Rindler geometry, we cannot find the corresponding Green’s function to calculate pole-skipping points because it is difficult to impose the boundary condition. However, we can still obtain “special points” near the horizon where bulk equations of motion have two incoming solutions. These “special points” correspond to the nonuniqueness of the Green’s function in physical meaning from the perspective of holography.

AbstractParametric vibrations of the single-layered graphene sheet (SLGS) are studied in the presented work. The equations of motion govern geometrically nonlinear oscillations. The appearance of small effects is analysed due to the application of the nonlocal elasticity theory. The approach is developed for rectangular simply supported small-scale plate and it employs the Bubnov–Galerkin method with a double mode model, which reduces the problem to investigation of the system of the second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The dynamic behaviour of the micro/nanoplate with varying excitation parameter is analysed to determine the chaotic regimes. As well the influence of small-scale effects to change the nature of vibrations is studied. The bifurcation diagrams, phase plots, Poincaré sections and the largest Lyapunov exponent are constructed and analysed. It is established that the use of nonlocal equations in the dynamic analysis of graphene sheets leads to a significant alteration in the character of oscillations, including the appearance of chaotic attractors.

Vibration of a statically loaded, inherently compensated hydrostatic journal bearing due to oscillating exhaust pressure is investigated. Both angular and radial vibration modes are analyzed. The time-dependent Reynolds equation governing the pressure distribution between the oscillating journal and sleeve is solved together with the journal equation of motion to obtain the response characteristics of the bearing. The Reynolds equation and the equation of motion are simplified by applying regular perturbation theory for small displacements. The numerical solutions of the perturbation equations are obtained by discretizing the pressure field using finite-difference approximations with a discrete, nonuniform line-source model which excludes effects due to feeding hole volume. An iterative scheme is used to simultaneously satisfy the equations of motion for the journal. The results presented include Bode plots of bearing-oscillation gain and phase for a particular bearing configuration for various combinations of parameters over a range of frequencies, including the resonant frequency.

This work studies the nonlinear oscillations of an elastic rotating shaft with acceleration to pass through the critical speeds. A mathematical model incorporating the Von-Karman higher-order deformations in bending is developed to investigate the nonlinear dynamics of rotors. A flexible shaft on flexible bearings with springs and dampers is considered as rotor system for this work. The shaft is modeled as a beam and the Euler–Bernoulli beam theory is applied. The kinetic and strain energies of the rotor system are derived and Lagrange method is then applied to obtain the coupled nonlinear differential equations of motion for 6 degrees of freedom. In order to solve these equations numerically, the finite element method (FEM) is used. Furthermore, for different bearing properties, rotor responses are examined and curves of passing through critical speeds with angular acceleration due to applied torque are plotted. Then the optimal values of bearing stiffness and damping are calculated to achieve the minimum vibration amplitude, which causes to pass easier through critical speeds. It is concluded that the value of damping and stiffness of bearing change the rotor critical speeds and also significantly affect the dynamic behavior of the rotor system. These effects are also presented graphically and discussed.

An analysis on nonlinear dynamic of a cantilevered functionally graded materials (FGM) plate which subjected to the transverse excitation in the uniform thermal environment is presented for the first time. Materials properties of the constituents are graded in the thickness direction according to a power-law distribution and assumed to be temperature dependent. In the framework of the Third-order shear deformation plate theory, the nonlinear governing equations of motion for the functionally graded materials plate are derived by using the Hamilton’s principle. For cantilever rectangular plate, the first two vibration mode shapes that satisfy the boundary conditions is given. The Galerkin’s method is utilized to discretize the governing equations of motion to a two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system under combined thermal and external excitations. By using the numerical method, the two-degree-of-freedom nonlinear system is analyzed to find the nonlinear responses of the cantilever FGMs plate. The influences of the thermal environments on the nonlinear dynamic response of the cantilevered FGM plate are discussed in detail through a parametric study.

This research presents the mathematical modeling for the nonlinear oscillations analysis of a pre-stretched hyperelastic annular membrane with varying density under finite deformations. The membrane material is assumed to be homogeneous, isotropic, and neo-Hookean and the variation of the membrane density in the radial direction is investigated. The membrane is first subjected to a uniform radial traction along its outer circumference and the stretched membrane is fixed along the outer boundary. Then the equations of motion of the pre-stretched membrane are derived. From the linearized equations of motion, the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the membrane are obtained analytically. The vibration modes are described by hypergeometric functions, which are used to approximate the nonlinear deformation field using the Galerkin method. The results are compared with the results evaluated for the same membrane using a nonlinear finite element formulation. The results show the influence of the stretching ratio and varying density on the linear and nonlinear oscillations of the membrane.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are expected to have significant impact on several emerging nanoelectromechanical (NEMS) applications. Vigorous understanding of the dynamic behavior of CNTs is essential for designing novel nanodevices. Recent literature show an increased utilization of models based on elastic continuum mechanics theories for studying the vibration behavior of CNTs. The importance of the continuum models stems from two points; (i) continuum simulations consume much less computational effort than the molecular dynamics simulations, and (ii) predicting nanostructures behavior through continuum simulation is much cheaper than studying their behavior through experimental verification. In numerous recent papers, CNTs were assumed to behave as perfectly straight beams or straight cylindrical shells. However, images taken by transmission electron microscopes for CNTs show that these tiny structures are not usually straight, but rather have certain degree of curvature or waviness along the nanotubes length. The curved morphology is due to process-induced waviness during manufacturing processes, in addition to mechanical properties such as low bending stiffness and large aspect ratio. In this study the free nonlinear oscillations of wavy embedded multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are investigated. The problem is formulated on the basis of the continuum mechanics theory and the waviness of the MWCNTs is modeled as a sinusoidal curve. The governing equation of motion is derived by using the Hamilton’s principle. The Galerkin approach was utilized to reduce the equation of motion to a second order nonlinear differential equation which involves a quadratic nonlinear term due to the curved geometry of the beam, and a cubic nonlinear term due to the stretching effect. The system response has been obtained using the incremental harmonic balanced method (IHBM). Using this method, the iterative relations describing the interaction between the amplitude and the frequency for the single-wall nanotube and double-wall nanotube are obtained. Also, the influence of the waviness, elastic medium and van der Waals forces on frequency-response curves is researched. Results present some useful information to analyze CNT’s nonlinear dynamic behavior.

The dynamic characteristics of a six bar hinge mechanism as used in home cabinets were investigated using the method of equation of motion. The derived equations of motion were numerically solved and the motion of the hinge mechanism was simulated. The influence of mass and width of the cabinet door on the dynamic characteristics of the hinge mechanism as well as the effect of the hinge number on the force applied on the handle were also investigated. The experimental and simulation results showed good agreement with an error of under 2%, which validated the simulation results. The proposed approach can be used by hinge manufacturers for the design and analysis of similar hinge mechanisms.
