This paper describes the vibration characteristics of a dual-bimorph piezoelectric pumping element under fluid–structure coupling. Unlike the single bimorph used in most previous studies, the proposed device comprises two piezoelectric bimorphs within an acrylic housing. Amplitude-fluctuation electronic speckle pattern interferometry (AF-ESPI) was used to examine the visible displacement fringes in order to elucidate the anti-phase as well as in-phase motions associated with vibration. Analysis was also conducted using impedance analysis and laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) based on the measurement of point-wise displacement. The experimental results of resonant frequencies and the corresponding mode shapes are in good agreement with those obtained using finite element analysis. The gain of flow rate obtained by the anti-phase motion of the dual-bimorph pumping element is larger than both those obtained by in-phase motion and the single bimorph pumping element. This work greatly enhances our understanding of the vibration characteristics of piezoelectric pumping elements with two bimorphs, and provides a valuable reference for the further development of bionic pump designs.

Element Analysis

In this paper, two experimental techniques, Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry and Stroboscopic Interferometry, and two different finite element analysis packages are used to measure or to analyze the frequencies and mode shapes of a micromachined, cross-shaped torsion structure. Four sets of modal data are compared and shown having a significant discrepancy in their frequency values, although their mode shapes are quite consistent. Inconsistency in the frequency results due to erroneous inputs of geometrical and material parameters to the finite element analysis can be salvaged by applying the finite element model updating procedure. Two updating cases show that the optimization sequences converge quickly and significant improvements in frequency prediction are achieved. With the inclusion of the thickness parameter, the second case yields a maximum of under 0.4% in frequency difference, and all parameters attain more reliable updated values.

Vibration Excitation

The blading in large turbochargers is subjected to vibration excitation originating from pulsations in the exhaust gas stream coupled with the blade pass frequencies. The amplitude of vibrations induced are a source of concern to design engineers as they can seriously affect the operation of the turbocharger. This paper discusses theoretical and experimental investigations aimed at identifying the natural frequencies and the associated mode shapes for a single turbocharger blade. Modal Analysis, Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI), and Finite Element Analysis are all used in an attempt to categorize the modal patterns.

Abstract This research investigates both the steady-state and transient dynamic characteristics of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), which is one of the most commonly used piezoelectric polymers. In steady-state vibration, the visible resonant mode fringe patterns are obtained using the amplitude-fluctuation electronic speckle pattern interferometry experiment, and the point-wise displacement data are measured by laser Doppler vibrometer–dynamic signal analysis. Finite element analysis is also performed, and the numerical results are compared with the experimental ones for the steady-state vibration. In a transient dynamic experiment, the history of dynamic impact generated by a steel ball is measured by the PVDF, and the experimental results are compared with the theoretical results obtained by the Hertz contact law. The comprehensive information about steady-state and transient dynamic properties of PVDF membranes obtained in this study is expected to contribute to the further development of the PVDF piezoelectric element.

Abstract This paper reports on the application of Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) technique in vibration measurement of turbine blading. Using the time-averaged mode of ESPI, the first six modes of a turbocharger blade with airfoil profile were identified. The effect of the complicated profile of the blade was established by studying simplified model blades. Coupled modes were identified and successfully separated. Experimental results are compared with those obtained using finite element analysis.

This paper studies natural frequencies and mode shapes of a glide head with a piezoelectric transducer (PZT) through calibrated experiments and a finite element analysis. In the experiments, the PZT transducer served as an actuator exciting the glide head from 100 kHz to 1.3 MHz, and a laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) measured displacement of the glide head at the inner or outer rail. The natural frequencies were measured through PZT impedance and frequency response functions from PZT to LDV. In the finite element analysis, the glide head was meshed by brick elements. The finite element results show that there are two types of vibration modes: slider modes and PZT modes. Only the slider modes are important to glide head applications. Moreover, natural frequencies predicted from the finite element analysis agree well with the experimental results within 5% of error. Finally, the finite element analysis identifies four critical slider dimensions whose tolerance will significantly vary the natural frequencies: PZT bonding length, wing thickness, slider thickness, and air bearing recess depth.

Drilling Method

The incremental hole-drilling method is a well-known mechanical measurement procedure for the analysis of residual stresses. The newly developed PRISM® technology by Stresstech Group measures stress relaxation optically using electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI). In case of autofrettaged components, the large amount of compressive residual stresses and the radius of the pressurized bores can be challenging for the measurement system. This research discusses the applicability of the measurement principle for autofrettaged cylinders made of steel AISI 4140. The residual stresses are measured after AF and after subsequent boring and reaming. The experimental residual stress depth profiles are compared to numerically acquired results from a finite element analysis (FEA) with the software code ABAQUS. Sample preparation will be considered as the parts have to be sectioned in half in order to access the measurement position. Following this, the influence of the boring and reaming operation on the final residual stress distribution as well as the accuracy of the presented measurement setup will be discussed. Finally, the usability of the FEA method in early design stages is discussed in order to predict the final residual stress distribution after AF and a following post-machining operation.

Laminated Composite Materials

The ESPI (Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry) is a real-time, full-field, non-destructive optical measurement technique. In this study, ESPI was proposed for the purpose of vibration analysis for new and composite materials. Composite materials have various complicated characteristics according to the materials, orientations, stacking sequences of the ply and boundary conditions. Therefore, it was difficult to analyze composite materials. For efficient use of composite materials in engineering applications the dynamic behavior (i.e., natural frequencies and nodal patterns) should be informed. With the use of Time-Average ESPI, one could analyze vibration characteristics of composite material by real time easily. We manufactured two kinds of laminated composites (i.e., symmetry and asymmetry) which were consisted of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) and the shape of the test piece was of rectangular form.

Super Harmonic Resonance

The time-averaged electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI) is employed to measure the frequencies and mode shapes of thin, cantilevered plates with root-slit. The first 12 order linear resonance frequency and mode shape of an intact cantilevered plate is determined by using FEM calculation. The dynamic response of the intact specimen forced by a PZT actuator is measured and its super-harmonic resonance of forced response is investigated experimentally. The results show that the principal mode shape of super-harmonic vibration is similar to its natural modal. In contrast to linear forcing vibration, the threshold of force for super-harmonic resonance is much higher than that of the former. In addition, linear free response of four cantilevered root-slit plates with variation length of slit are analyzed by applying the FEM calculation, and their responses of forcing vibration were measured by using the ESPI method. The validity and accuracy of the numerical prediction are confirmed through experimental studies. The present work shows that the ESPI technique can provide whole-field and real-time measurement for vibration analysis and can also be employed for validation of the FEM calculation.
