Reconstructing the transient,dissipative dynamics of a bistable Duffing oscillator with an enhanced averaging method and Jacobian elliptic functions

Systems characterized by the governing equation of the bistable, double-well Duffing oscillator are ever-present throughout the fields of science and engineering. While the prediction of the transient dynamics of these strongly nonlinear oscillators has been a particular research interest, the sufficiently accurate reconstruction of the dissipative behaviors continues to be an unrealized goal. In this study, an enhanced averaging method using Jacobian elliptic functions is presented to faithfully predict the transient, dissipative dynamics of a bistable Duffing oscillator. The analytical approach is uniquely applied to reconstruct the intrawell and interwell dynamic regimes. By relaxing the requirement for small variation of the transient, averaged parameters in the proposed solution formulation, the resulting analytical predictions are in excellent agreement with exact trajectories of displacement and velocity determined via numerical integration of the governing equation. A wide range of system parameters and initial conditions are utilized to assess the accuracy and computational efficiency of the analytical method, and the consistent agreement between numerical and analytical results verifies the robustness of the proposed method. Although the analytical formulations are distinct for the two dynamic regimes, it is found that directly splicing the inter- and intrawell predictions facilitates good agreement with the exact dynamics of the full reconstructed, transient trajectory.     

Transverse conductivity and longitudinal shear of elliptic fiber composite with imperfect interface

The paper addresses the problem of calculating the local fields and effective transport properties and longitudinal shear stiffness of elliptic fiber composite with imperfect interface. The Rayleigh type representative unit cell approach has been used. The micro geometry of composite is modeled by a periodic structure with a unit cell containing multiple elliptic inclusions. The developed method combines the superposition principle, the technique of complex potentials and certain new results in the theory of special functions. An appropriate choice of the potentials provides reducing the boundary-value problem to an ordinary, well-posed set of linear algebraic equations. The exact finite form expression of the effective stiffness tensor has been obtained by analytical averaging the local gradient and flux fields. The convergence of solution has been verified and the parametric study of the model has been performed. The obtained accurate, statistically meaningful results illustrate a substantial effect of imperfect interface on the effective behavior of composite.     

A class of coupled nonlinear Schr(o)dinger equations: Painlevé property,exact solutions,and application to atmospheric gravity waves

The Painlev(e) integrability and exact solutions to a coupled nonlinear Schrodinger (CNLS) equation applied in atmospheric dynamics are discussed. Some parametric restrictions of the CNLS equation are given to pass the Painleve test. Twenty periodic cnoidal wave solutions are obtained by applying the rational expansions of fundamental Jacobi elliptic functions. The exact solutions to the CNLS equation are used to explain the generation and propagation of atmospheric gravity waves.     

Dynamics of Oscillators with Strongly Nonlinear Asymmetric Damping

Dynamics of a class of strongly nonlinear single degree of freedom oscillators is investigated. Their common characteristic is that they possess piecewise linear damping properties, which can be expressed in a general asymmetric form. More specifically, the damping coefficient and a constant parameter appearing in the equation of motion are functions of the velocity direction. This class of oscillators is quite general and includes other important categories of mechanical systems as special cases, like systems with Coulomb friction. First, an analysis is presented for locating directly exact periodic responses of these oscillators to harmonic excitation. Due to the presence of dry friction, these responses may involve intervals where the oscillator is stuck temporarily. Then, an appropriate stability analysis is also presented together with some quite general bifurcation results. In the second part of the work, this analysis is applied to several example systems with piecewise linear damping, in order to reveal the most important aspects of their dynamics. Initially, systems with symmetric characteristics are examined, for which the periodic response is found to be symmetric or asymmetric. Then, dynamical systems with asymmetric damping characteristics are also examined. In all cases, emphasis is placed on investigating the low forcing frequency ranges, where interesting dynamics is noticed. The analytical predictions are complemented with results obtained by proper integration of the equation of motion, which among other responses reveal the existence of quasiperiodic, chaotic and unbounded motions.     

Symbolic Computation of Local Stability and Bifurcation Surfaces for Nonlinear Time-Periodic Systems

In this paper we present a spectral technique for building asymptotic expansions which describe periodic processes in conservative and self-excited systems without assuming the oscillations to be weakly nonlinear. The small parameter of the expansion is connected with the ratio of the amplitudes of higher than the first harmonics in contrast to the traditional parameter connected with weak nonlinearity. In the case of an oscillator with power nonlinearity the frequency of the main harmonic and the complex amplitudes of higher harmonics are computed as the expansions of either integer (for weakly nonlinear oscillations) or algebraic (for strong nonlinearity) functions of the complex amplitude of the first harmonic depending on the character of the initial conditions and the maximum power of the nonlinear term in the equation. In the simplest case of weakly nonlinear oscillations the complete asymptotic expansion is shown to be valid in the whole domain of the periodic motions of definite type until the separatrix is reached. The expressions for the first terms of the expansion for concrete examples coincide with the expressions obtained both with the use of other methods and by expanding the exact solutions. For some special cases of the strongly nonlinear oscillations the comparison of the results with known exact solutions is carried out as well as the criteria of convergence of the expansions are determined.

无限粘弹性平面中椭圆孔口变边界过程的复变函数解答

工程中存在一类几何边界随时间变化的变边界结构,例如土木工程中处于施工阶段的结构。本文以粘弹性岩体中隧道开挖为背景,尝试用变边界问题对应关系和平面弹性复变方法求取无限平面中椭圆孔口自相似变边界情况下的解析解答。首先建立了复变函数法求解变边界粘弹性问题的基本步骤和公式。然后通过建立逆映射函数将已知?平面复位势转至z平面,从而解耦参与拉普拉斯变换的时间与孔口映射函数所带来的时间,从而导出了粘弹性类材料的应力与位移的统一表达。作为一个例子,本文选择Boltzmann粘弹性模型,代入模型参数后得到积分形式的位移、应力解析解,通过与数值解的比较验证了该解答的可靠性,并通过一个算例分析了变边界过程对位移、应力的影响。分析结果显示,采用不同变边界过程的位移、应力变化形态和数值均有差别。本文解答可用于进行地下椭圆孔型隧道在开挖过程中的力学分析,为实际工程提供初步设计的手段。此外,本文给出的方法可用于推导任意形状孔型变边界问题的解答。     

Two models for the parametric forcing of a nonlinear oscillator

Instabilities associated with 2:1 and 4:1 resonances of two models for the parametric forcing of a strictly nonlinear oscillator are analyzed. The first model involves a nonlinear Mathieu equation and the second one is described by a 2 degree of freedom Hamiltonian system in which the forcing is introduced by the coupling. Using averaging with elliptic functions, the threshold of the overlapping phenomenon between the resonance bands 2:1 and 4:1 (Chirikov’s overlap criterion) is determined for both models, offering an approximation for the transition from local to global chaos. The analytical results are compared to numerical simulations obtained by examining the Poincaré section of the two systems.

Anomalous steady flows in a tube

Tube flow of a viscoelastic liquid of the multiple integral type driven by periodic forcing is investigated. It is shown that mean longitudinal and secondary flows exist, independently of the explicit form of the constitutive functions, due to frequency cancellation when the forcing oscillates around a zero mean. Closed form expressions are given for these non-trivial flows at the lowest order of the algorithm where nonlinear effects appear.Presented at the Third European Rheology Conference, Edinburgh, UK, Sept. 3–7, 1990.     

Three-dimensional continuum analysis for a unidirectional composite with a broken fiber

The three-dimensional problem of a periodic unidirectional composite with a penny-shaped crack traversing one of the fibers is analyzed by the continuum equations of elasticity. The solution of the crack problem is represented by a superposition of weighted unit normal displacement jump solutions, everyone of which forms a Green’s function. The Green’s functions for the unbounded periodic composite are obtained by the combined use of the representative cell method and the higher-order theory. The representative cell method, based on the triple discrete Fourier transform, allows the reduction of the problem of an infinite domain to a problem of a finite one in the transform space. This problem is solved by the higher-order theory according to which the transformed displacement vector is expressed by a second order expansion in terms of local coordinates, in conjunction with the equilibrium equations and the relevant boundary conditions. The actual elastic field is obtained by a numerical evaluation of the inverse transform. The accuracy of the suggested approach is verified by a comparison with the exact analytical solution for a penny-shaped crack embedded in a homogeneous medium. Results for a unidirectional composite with a broken fiber are given for various fiber volume fractions and fiber-to-matrix stiffness ratios. It is shown that for certain parameter combinations the use of the average stress in the fiber, as it is employed in the framework of the shear lag approach, for the prediction of composite’s strength, leads to an over estimation. To this end, the concept of “point stress concentration factor” is introduced to characterize the strength of the composite with a broken fiber. Several generalizations of the proposed approach are offered.

Delay Equations with Rapidly Oscillating Stable Periodic Solutions

We prove analytically that there exist delay equations admitting rapidly oscillating stable periodic solutions. Previous results were obtained with the aid of computers, only for particular feedback functions. Our proofs work for stiff equations with several classes of feedback functions. Moreover, we prove that for negative feedback there exists a class of feedback functions such that the larger the stiffness parameter is, the more stable rapidly oscillating periodic solutions there are. There are stable periodic solutions with arbitrarily many zeros per unit time interval if the stiffness parameter is chosen sufficiently large.     

Green’s functions of an exponentially graded transversely isotropic half-space

By virtue of a complete set of displacement potential functions and Hankel transform, the analytical expressions of Green’s function of an exponentially graded elastic transversely isotropic half-space is presented. The given solution is analytically in exact agreement with the existing solution for a homogeneous transversely isotropic half-space. Employing a robust asymptotic decomposition technique, the Green’s function is decomposed to the closed-form Green’s function corresponding to the homogeneous transversely isotropic half-space and grading term with strong decaying integrands. This representation is very useful for numerical methods which are based on boundary-integral formulations such as boundary-element method since the numerically evaluated part is not responsible for the singularity. The high accuracy of the proposed numerical scheme is confirmed by some numerical examples.     

Analysis of Duffing oscillator with time-delayed fractional-order PID controller

The free vibration of Duffing oscillator with time-delayed fractional-order Proportional-Integral-Derivative (FOPID) controller based on displacement feedback is studied. The second-order approximate analytical solution is obtained by KBM asymptotic method. The effects of the parameters in FOPID controller on the dynamical properties are characterized by some equivalent parameters. The correctness of the approximate analytical results is verified by the numerical results. The effects of the time-delayed FOPID controller with displacement feedback on control performances of Duffing oscillator are analyzed in detail by time response, and the stability conditions of zero solution and periodic motions are also presented. Finally, the control performances on Duffing oscillator with large damping are further analyzed. And the results show that one could take the advantage of time delay, when the parameters of time-delayed FOPID controller are chosen reasonably.     

Action of an elliptic punch on a transversally isotropic half-space

The 3D contact problem on the action of a punch elliptic in horizontal projection on a transversally isotropic elastic half-space is considered for the case in which the isotropy planes are perpendicular to the boundary of the half-space. The elliptic contact region is assumed to be given (the punch has sharp edges). The integral equation of the contact problem is obtained. The elastic rigidity of the half-space boundary characterized by the normal displacement under the action of a given lumped force significantly depends on the chosen direction on this boundary. In this connection, the following two cases of location of the ellipse of contact are considered: it can be elongated along the first or the second axis of Cartesian coordinate system on the body boundary. Exact solutions are obtained for a punch with base shaped as an elliptic paraboloid, and these solutions are used to carry out the computations for various versions of the five elastic constants. The structure of the exact solution is found for a punch with polynomial base, and a method for determining the solution is proposed.
