Vibrating Response

By using simulated friction forces, analytical expressions were derived from the sliding-vibrating response of a single degree of freedom system under harmonic excitation or the "disadvantageous period reciprocating motion", taking the mass of the sliding base into consideration. Some of the general laws were studied and some new characteristics determined which had previously been ignored by assuming rigid body motion. The analysis methods adopted in this paper have been confirmed in comparison with the results of model tests on a shake table.

Linear Damping

Wilms (1995) has considered the plane motion of three lineal rigid bodies subject to linear damping over their length. He shows that these plane single-degree-of-freedom systems are governed by precisely the same fundamental differential equation. It is not unusual that several dynamical systems may be formally characterized by the same differential equation, but the universal differential equation for these systems is unusual because it is exactly the same equation for the three very different systems. It is shown here that these problems belong to a more general class of problems for which the differential equation is exactly the same for every lineal rigid body regardless of its geometry.

Critical Damping

In this paper, exact closed forms of critical damping manifolds for multiple-kernel-based nonviscous single-degree-of-freedom oscillators are derived. The dissipative forces are assumed to depend on the past history of the velocity response via hereditary exponential kernels. The damping model depends on several parameters, considered variables in the context of this paper. Those parameter combinations which establish thresholds between induced overdamped and underdamped motion are called critical damping manifolds. If such manifolds are represented on a coordinate plane of two damping parameters, then they are named critical curves, so that overdamped regions are bounded by them. Analytical expressions of critical curves are deduced in parametric form, considering certain local nondimensional parameters based on the Laplace variable in the frequency domain. The definition of the new parameter (called the critical parameter) is supported by several theoretical results. The proposed expressions are validated through numerical examples showing perfect fitting of the determined critical curves and overdamped regions.

AbstractThis paper presents an experimental investigation of the dynamic behaviour of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDoF) system with a metal-to-metal contact under harmonic base or joined base-wall excitation. The experimental results are compared with those yielded by mathematical models based on a SDoF system with Coulomb damping. While previous experiments on friction-damped systems focused on the characterisation of the friction force, the proposed approach investigates the steady response of a SDoF system when different exciting frequencies and friction forces are applied. The experimental set-up consists of a single-storey building, where harmonic excitation is imposed on a base plate and a friction contact is achieved between a steel top plate and a brass disc. The experimental results are expressed in terms of displacement transmissibility, phase angle and top plate motion in the time and frequency domains. Both continuous and stick-slip motions are investigated. The main results achieved in this paper are: (1) the development of an experimental set-up capable of reproducing friction damping effects on a harmonically excited SDoF system; (2) the validation of the analytical model introduced by Marino et al. (Nonlinear Dyn, 2019. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11071-019-04983-x) and, particularly, the inversion of the transmissibility curves in the joined base-wall motion case; (3) the systematic observation of stick-slip phenomena and their validation with numerical results.

Model Equations

We consider the dynamic response of a single degree of freedom system with preloaded, or “setup,” springs. This is a simple model for systems where preload is used to suppress vibrations. The springs are taken to be linear and harmonic excitation is applied; damping is assumed to be of linear viscous type. Using the piecewise linear features of the model equations we determine the amplitude and stability of the periodic responses and carry out a bifurcation analysis for these motions. Some parameter regions which contain no simple stable periodic motions are shown to possess chaotic motions.

The problem of shock generated vibration is presented and analyzed. The fundamental background is explained based on the analysis of a single degree-of-freedom model with passive stiffness and damping. The advantages and limitations of such a shock mount are discussed. Afterwards, different semi-active strategies involving variable damping are presented. These strategies have been used for harmonic excitation but it is not clear how they will perform during a shock. This paper analyzes the different variable damping schemes already used for harmonic vibration in order to find any potential advantages or issues for theoretical shock pulses.

Abstract In this paper, a semi-analytical approach was used to predict periodic motions in a single-degree-of-freedom system under both aerodynamic force and harmonic excitation. Using the implicit mappings, the predictions of period-1 motions varying with excitation frequency are obtained. Stability of the period-1 motions are discussed, and the corresponding eigenvalues of period-1 motions are presented. Finally, numerical simulations of stable period-1 motions are illustrated.

Abstract The dynamics of nonlinear structures under harmonic and random excitations is studied. The harmonic excitation is modeled by periodic loadings while the random excitations is modeled by segments of stationary Gaussian white noise processes. Transient responses of a single-degree-of-freedom model is studied to illustrate the characteristic of nonlinear responses. A free play type of nonlinearity is considered. The effects of nonlinearities on the overall dynamics of structure is investigated. The linearization technique is used to calculate the response statistics. To check the accuracy of the linearization technique, the results are compared with Monte-Carlo digital simulations and good agreement are observed.

Quasiperiodic galloping of a wind-excited tower under unsteady wind is investigated analytically near secondary (sub/superharmonic) resonances of order 2 considering a single degree-of-freedom model. The case where the unsteady wind develops multiharmonic excitations consisting of the two first harmonic terms is examined. We perform two successive multiple scale methods to obtain analytical expressions of a quasiperiodic solution and its modulation envelope near the secondary resonances. The influence of unsteady wind on the quasiperiodic galloping and on the frequency of its modulation is examined for different cases of wind excitation. The results show that the quasiperiodic galloping onset and its modulation envelope can be influenced, depending on the activated resonance and the harmonic component induced by the unsteady wind. It is also shown that the frequency of the quasiperiodic galloping is higher near the 2-superharmonic resonance in all cases of wind excitation.

This work formulates and demonstrates a motion generation method for the synthesis of a particular type of planar six-bar mechanism-the Watt I mechanism. The Watt I mechanism is essentially a “stacked” four-bar mechanism (having two closed loops and a single degree of freedom). Extending the planar motion generation method of Suh and Radcliffe [11] to incorporate relative motion between moving pivots, Watt I mechanisms are synthesized to simultaneously approximate two groups of prescribed rigid-body poses for simultaneous dual motion generation capability. The example included demonstrates the synthesis of a finger mechanism to achieve a prescribed grasping pose sequence.

Tradeoff Curve

A design strategy to simultaneously mitigate the effects of both shock and vibration is introduced. The proposed isolation mount is a passive, transitioning mount and consists of sliding friction elements in series connection with springs and dampers. A linear and a displacement dependent viscous damper are considered, while linear, hardening and softening springs, are considered. The isolation mount’s response is determined by numerical simulation. For a single-degree-of-freedom system, the tradeoff curve for a half-sine velocity input is determined, as is the nonlinear transmissibility for harmonic excitation. The method is found to achieve satisfactory isolation against shock events as well as persistent harmonic inputs. The suggested mount configuration was also found to have good performance against a ‘combined’ input with both resonant and transient content.
