Hydrodynamics of a flexible cylinder under modulated vortex-induced vibrations

Both amplitude modulation and frequency modulation of Vortex-induced Vibration (VIV) are observed in a recent model test of a flexible cylinder under oscillatory flow, but its hydrodynamics has not yet been broached in detail. This paper employs the Forgetting Factor Least Squares (FF-LS) method for identification of time-varying hydrodynamics of a flexible cylinder under modulated VIV. The FF-LS method’s applicability to accurately identify time-varying hydrodynamic coefficients is demonstrated through an elastically mounted rigid cylinder under flow with a given modulated motion. Furthermore, we propose a framework to predict instantaneous amplitude (envelope) and frequency using time-varying hydrodynamic coefficients to establish their analytical relationship. This prediction method is further extended to a highly tensioned flexible cylinder through Fourier series expansion in the spatial domain. By performing the identification procedure for all sampled data of a flexible cylinder undergoing oscillatory flow, we obtain the corresponding time-varying hydrodynamics in the cross-flow direction considering the amplitude and frequency modulation. The results show that, under modulated VIV, hydrodynamic coefficients of the flexible cylinder also show time-varying characteristics. We further investigate differences between identified hydrodynamic coefficients and those obtained from the database of a cylinder with modulated motion under flow. Prediction results using these identified time-varying coefficients reveal that the time-varying excitation coefficients mainly influence the amplitude modulation, and the time-varying added-mass coefficients contain the major information of frequency modulation. These results further suggest including the temporal derivative of the instantaneous amplitude as one determining parameter in building databases to improve the prediction of modulated VIV.     

Stabilization of a viscoelastic rotating Euler‐Bernoulli beam

In this paper, we consider a rotating Euler‐Bernoulli beam. The beam is made of a viscoelastic material, and it is subject to undesirable vibrations. Under a suitable control torque applied at the motor, we prove the arbitrary stabilization of the system for a large class of relaxation functions by using the multiplier method and some ideas introduced by Tatar (J. Math. Phys. 52:013502, 2011).     

非PLL相位平均型参考线原型验证

射频相位参考线是粒子加速器的重要组成部分之一,为射频低电平控制系统(LLRF)、束流诊断系统、定时系统等提供稳定的相位锁定参考信号。为减少远距离传输过程中由环境温度变化导致的射频传输线中的射频相位漂移,多个加速器装置中已经采用射频相位参考线提供射频相位参考,这些相位参考的实现方案主要是基于恒温控制和基于光纤锁相。与这些方案相比,采用相位平均方法不仅可以保持长距离节点之间的相位稳定,而且更易于现场安装与维护。现有的带有锁相环(PLL)的终端短路方式实现相位平均参考线的方案仍有一些节点数量限制等方面的不足,本文对相位平均参考线结构进行了去除PLL的简化设计并进行了验证,以期增加更多的相位分配节点以及降低对射频器件参数的要求。对非PLL的单端输入终端短路相位平均方案与两端输入各节点间互为参考的相位平均方案分别进行了实验测试,结果表明两者的相位RMS精度可以达到0.1°~0.3°。并对不同的相位平均实现方案中相位不稳定的产生原因进行了分析,结果表明,除环境温度外,同轴线缆材质、合成相位与幅度的不平衡合成等也是重要影响因素。

Influence of the torsional vibration of the periodically attached perpendicular beam resonator on the flexural band of a Euler-Bernoulli beam

The bending and torsional vibration of the periodic perpendicular cantilever beam-mass resonators (PCBMR) is idealized as translational and rotational oscillators attached to the main beam. In this paper, the effect of that torsional vibration of the PCBMR on the dynamics of an infinitely long Euler-Bernoulli beam is evaluated. The band-structure is explored by implementing the transfer matrix method in conjunction with Bloch-Floquet's theorem. The combination of the translational and rotational oscillator modifies the relative position of the coupling coefficient in the transfer matrix, which plays a pivotal role in the band-gap formation. The flexural band-structure is highly sensitive to the torsional vibration while the radius of gyration of the tip mass is considerably higher than the length of the PCBMR. Ill-tuning leads to split and reduction of attenuation band to 50%; whereas, around 38% elongation of the attenuation band in the low frequency regime can be achieved by proper tuning.     

Nanoscale detection of faint machinery vibration using the NV center in diamond

We propose a novel method for detection of the faint machinery vibration at the nanometer resolution based on the spin magnetic resonant effect. A suspension magnet acts as a vibration sensor to transfer the vibration signals as the magnetic field fluctuation to excite the spin magnetic resonance. Due to the high sensitivity of the magnetic field of the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond, the theoretical detection limit of mechanical vibration is as high as 5.7 nm, and the actual measurement resolution reached 12.8 nm, and proved the potential for further improvement to ∼pm resolution. The feasibility of this method is verified by dynamic tests. This method provides a novel approach for the detection of micro-mechanical vibrations.     

3D syndiotactic elastic metastructure with single-phase material

The artificially periodic structures with the bandgap (BG) features provide a fantastic way for elastic wave manipulation. However, omnidirectional control of elastic waves at low-frequency remains a challenge, especially in the engineering application, due to the great different material parameters of the structure's components. In this work, we present the design of a three-dimensional syndiotactic metastructure (STM) and isotactic metastructure (ITM) composed of a single material with the same density and stiffness. A low-frequency broad bandgap occurs in the global band structure of STM. Meanwhile, it also retains the same high-frequency ultra-wide BG as that of ITM. The formation of the low-frequency BG of STM is attributed to the simultaneous activation of rotation and translation modes. The static deformation analysis indicates that STM has a unique translational and rotational coupling mechanism. The frequency response results reveal that the coupling mechanism can also enhance the attenuation of high-frequency BG.
