Time-varying nonlinear dynamics of a deploying piezoelectric laminated composite plate under aerodynamic force

Using Reddy’s high-order shear theory for laminated plates and Hamilton’s principle, a nonlinear partial differential equation for the dynamics of a deploying cantilevered piezoelectric laminated composite plate, under the combined action of aerodynamic load and piezoelectric excitation, is introduced. Two-degree of freedom (DOF) nonlinear dynamic models for the time-varying coefficients describing the transverse vibration of the deploying laminate under the combined actions of a first-order aerodynamic force and piezoelectric excitation were obtained by selecting a suitable time-dependent modal function satisfying the displacement boundary conditions and applying second-order discretization using the Galerkin method. Using a numerical method, the time history curves of the deploying laminate were obtained, and its nonlinear dynamic characteristics, including extension speed and different piezoelectric excitations, were studied. The results suggest that the piezoelectric excitation has a clear effect on the change of the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of such piezoelectric laminated composite plates. The nonlinear vibration of the deploying cantilevered laminate can be effectively suppressed by choosing a suitable voltage and polarity.     

Double Hopf bifurcation of composite laminated piezoelectric plate subjected to external and internal excitations

The double Hopf bifurcation of a composite laminated piezoelectric plate with combined external and internal excitations is studied. Using a multiple scale method, the average equations are obtained in two coordinates. The bifurcation response equations of the composite laminated piezoelectric plate with the primary parameter resonance, i.e.,1:3 internal resonance, are achieved. Then, the bifurcation feature of bifurcation equations is considered using the singularity theory. A bifurcation diagram is obtained on the parameter plane. Different steady state solutions of the average equations are analyzed.By numerical simulation, periodic vibration and quasi-periodic vibration responses of the composite laminated piezoelectric plate are obtained.     

Random Vibration Control of Laminated Composite Plates with Piezoelectric Fiber Reinforced Composites

This paper presents an analysis of the active control of random vibration for laminated composite plates using piezoelectric fiber reinforced composites(PFRC). With Hamilton's principle and the Rayleigh-Ritz method, the equation of motion for the resulting electromechanical coupling system is derived. A velocity feedback control rule is employed to obtain an effective active damping in the suppression of random vibration. The power spectral density and meansquare displacements of the random vibration for laminated plates under different control gains are simulated and the validity of the present control strategy is confirmed. The effect of piezoelectric fiber orientation in the PFRC layer on the random vibration suppression is also investigated.The analytical methodology can be expanded to other kinds of random vibration.     

On bimodal flutter behavior of a flexible airfoil

The dynamic aeroelastic behavior of an elastically supported airfoil is studied in order to investigate the possibilities of increasing critical flutter speed by exploiting its chord-wise flexibility. The flexible airfoil concept is implemented using a rigid airfoil-shaped leading edge, and a flexible thin laminated composite plate conformally attached to its trailing edge. The flutter behavior is studied in terms of the number of laminate plies used in the composite plate for a given aeroelastic system configuration. The flutter behavior is predicted by using an eigenfunction expansion approach which is also used to design a laminated plate in order to attain superior flutter characteristics. Such an airfoil is characterized by two types of flutter responses, the classical airfoil flutter and the plate flutter. Analysis shows that a significant increase in the critical flutter speed can be achieved with high plunge and low pitch stiffness in the region where the aeroelastic system exhibits a bimodal flutter behavior, e.g., where the airfoil flutter and the plate flutter occur simultaneously. The predicted flutter behavior of a flexible airfoil is experimentally verified by conducting a series of systematic aeroelastic system configurations wind tunnel flutter campaigns. The experimental investigations provide, for each type of flutter, a measured flutter response, including the one with indicated bimodal behavior.     

Vibration characteristics and flutter analysis of a composite laminated plate with a store

The effects of an external store on the flutter characteristics of a composite laminated plate in a supersonic flow are investigated. The Dirac function is used to formulate the interaction between the plate and the store. The first-order piston theory is used to describe the aerodynamic load. The governing equation of the composite laminated plate with an external store is established based on the Hamilton principle. The mode shapes are constructed by the admissible functions which are a set of characteristic orthogonal polynomials generated directly by the Gram-Schmidt process, and the boundary constraint is modeled as the artificial springs. The frequency and mode shapes of the plate under different boundaries are determined by the Rayleigh-Ritz method. The validity of the proposed approach is confirmed by comparing the results with those obtained from the finite element method (FEM). The effects of the mounting position, the center of gravity position and the mounting points spacing of the external store on the flutter boundary are discussed for both the simply supported and cantilever plates, respectively, which correspond to the two installation sites of the external store, i.e., the belly and wings of the aircraft.     

Nonlinear high-frequency flutter of a plate

In recent studies of the problem of linear stability of a plate in a supersonic gas flow a new (“high-frequency”) type of flutter, which cannot be obtained by means of the piston theory usually employed in these problems, was found to exist together with the classical (“low-frequency”) type. In the present study a new method of calculating the pressure acting on a high-frequency vibrating plate is proposed and, using this method, high-frequency flutter is investigated in the nonlinear formulation and the flutter vibration amplitudes are determined.     

Electro-elastic analysis of fiber-reinforced multilayered cylindrical composites with integrated piezoelectric actuators

Based on the electro-mechanical coupling theory and the laminate elasticity theory, an electro-elastic solution is obtained for the fiber-reinforced cylindrical composites with integrated piezoelectric actuators when subjected to mechanical and electrical loadings. The hybrid composite is composed of three parts: internal piezoelectric actuator, fiber-reinforced laminated interlayer, and external piezoelectric actuator. The general solution in each piezoelectric smart layer is obtained by introducing three undetermined constants, and the general solutions in the fiber-reinforced laminated interlayer are obtained by means of the state-space method. The mechanical behaviors of the hybrid fiber-reinforced cylindrical composites are investigated. The illustrative examples show that the fiber’s angle, the stacking sequence as well as the applied electric loading strongly affect the physical fields in the fiber-reinforced multilayered cylindrical composites.
