A propeller blade, as a typical example of low-rigidity components, is prone to chatter and deformation in machining process, especially when large material removal is applied. In order to foresee the problems and then optimize the process, identification of the dynamic behavior of the workpiece is of great importance. This paper studies the dynamic characteristics of the workpiece in the machining process from plate to propeller blade using Finite Element Method. The results show that the time-varying natural frequencies of the workpiece decrease gradually at the beginning steps of the process due to the influence of material removal, and increases afterwards influenced by the geometry of the blade.

The aim of this paper is to study the influence of hull deformation on dynamic behavior of ship propulsion shafting. Taking an 8530TEU container ship as an objective and using the finite element method, a global ship structure model is built up to evaluate the hull deformations under typical loading cases. Then the hull bottom-propulsion shafting integrated model is adopted to analyze the effect of hull deformation on shafting natural frequency under dry and wet mode. The results show that the natural frequencies of the shafting will increase due to the effect of hull deformation. Consequently, it is necessary to consider the effect of ship deformation when dealing with the dynamic behavior of ship propulsion shafting.

This paper focuses on the dynamic characteristics of reflectors considering the effects of assembly of gores. A model is established to properly predict the assembled shape of planar gores, and nonlinear finite element method and subspace iteration method are adopted to analyze the dynamic characteristics of reflectors. A comparative study is carried out based on the dynamic analysis with ideal reflector and assembled reflector to illustrate the impacts of assembly on mode shapes and natural frequencies of the reflectors. The results show that the presence of assembly of gores and seaming tapes has significant effects on mode shapes and natural frequencies of reflectors, which will influence the shape control of reflectors.

Abstract One of the main requirements for efficient and economical material removal is optimal machine tool design. The main objective of this paper is to investigate the dynamic characteristics of a shaping machine using finite element method. In the first part, experimentation and computation are combined to formulate and validate the mechanical model of the shaper. A parametric study is done in the second part. The main housing along with the ram of a typical shaper is analyzed during the process of shaping. This assembly is modeled using triangular shell elements. The eigenvalues and the eigenvectors are obtained. There is an acceptable degree of agreement between analytical results and the experimental observations. The cutting force is determined experimentally and using this the response of the shaping machine is determined. The dynamic acceleration response so obtained is compared with the experimentally obtained response. An exhaustive stress analysis is done. The system is sensitive to changes in certain parameters which are identified and analyzed, with optimization of the structural weight and machining accuracy being the criteria.

As the most significant material removal method, milling plays a very important role in the manufacturing industry. However, chatter occurs frequently in milling, which will seriously affect the production efficiency. The accurate prediction of chatter frequency can contribute to chatter monitoring and the design of the controller for chatter mitigation. During thin-walled workpiece milling under chatter, a new phenomenon of time-varying chatter frequency is discovered and explained in this paper. This phenomenon can be explained as follows, with the workpiece material removal, the modal parameters change during thin-walled milling, which can cause the continuous change of chatter frequency. In order to predict the varying modal parameters, this paper provided an efficient tool, the B-spline wavelet on interval finite element method (BSWIFEM), which can possess the material removal problem more accurately and more rapidly. Based on the calculated modal parameters, the time-varying chatter frequency can be obtained with the chatter frequency calculation formulas. To verify the calculated results, a number of milling tests are implemented on thin-walled parts. The experimental results show that the calculated chatter frequency is in good agreement with the measured chatter frequency, which validates the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Vibration of structures due to external sound is one of the main causes of interior noise in cavities like automobile, aircraft, and rotorcraft, which disturb the comfort of passengers. Accurate modelling of such phenomena is required in eigenfrequency analysis and in designing an active noise control system to reduce the interior noise. In this paper, the effect of periodic noise travelling into a rectangular enclosure is investigated with finite element method (FEM) using COMSOL Multiphysics software. The periodic acoustic wave is generated by a point source outside the enclosure and propagated through the enclosure wall and excites an aluminium flexible panel clamped onto the enclosure. The behaviour of the transmission of sound into the cavity is investigated by computing the modal characteristics and the natural frequencies of the cavity. The simulation results are compared with previous analytical and experimental works for validation and an acceptable match between them were obtained.
