Failure mechanisms in composite panels subjected to underwater impulsive loads

This work examines the performance of composite panels when subjected to underwater impulsive loads. The scaled fluid-structure experimental methodology developed by Espinosa and co-workers was employed. Failure modes, damage mechanisms and their distributions were identified and quantified for composite monolithic and sandwich panels subjected to typical blast loadings. The temporal evolutions of panel deflection and center deflection histories were obtained from shadow Moiré fringes acquired in real time by means of high speed photography. A linear relationship of zero intercept between peak center deflections versus applied impulse per areal mass was obtained for composite monolithic panels. For composite sandwich panels, the relationship between maximum center deflection versus applied impulse per areal mass was found to be approximately bilinear but with a higher slope. Performance improvement of sandwich versus monolithic composite panels was, therefore, established specially at sufficiently high impulses per areal mass (I₀/M¯>170 m s⁻¹). Severe failure was observed in solid panels subjected to impulses per areal mass larger than 300 m s⁻¹. Extensive fiber fracture occurred in the center of the panels, where cracks formed a cross pattern through the plate thickness and delamination was very extensive on the sample edges due to bending effects. Similar levels of damage were observed in sandwich panels but at much higher impulses per areal mass. The experimental work reported in this paper encompasses not only characterization of the dynamic performance of monolithic and sandwich panels but also post-mortem characterization by means of both non-destructive and microscopy techniques. The spatial distribution of delamination and matrix cracking were quantified, as a function of applied impulse, in both monolithic and sandwich panels. The extent of core crushing was also quantified in the case of sandwich panels. The quantified variables represent ideal metrics against which model predictive capabilities can be assessed.     

The construction of non-linear normal modes for systems with internal resonance

A numerical method, based on the invariant manifold approach, is presented for constructing non-linear normal modes for systems with internal resonances. In order to parameterize the non-linear normal modes of interest, multiple pairs of system state variables involved in the internal resonance are kept as ‘seeds’ for the construction of the multi-mode invariant manifold. All the remaining degrees of freedom are then constrained to these ‘seed’, or master, variables, resulting in a system of non-linear partial differential equations that govern the constraint relationships, and these are solved numerically. The computationally-intensive solution procedure uses a combination of finite difference schemes and Galerkin-based expansion approaches. It is illustrated using two examples, both of which focus on the construction of two-mode models. The first example is based on the analysis of a simple three-degree-of-freedom example system, and is used to demonstrate the approach. An invariant manifold that captures two non-linear normal modes is constructed, resulting in a reduced order model that accurately captures the system dynamics. The methodology is then applied to a larger order system, specifically, an 18-degree-of-freedom rotating beam model that features a three-to-one internal resonance between the first two flapping modes. The accuracy of the non-linear two-mode reduced order model is verified by comparing time-domain simulations of the two DOF model and the full system equations of motion.     

Modal decomposition of polychromatic internal wave fields in arbitrary stratifications

Internal waves such as those produced by tidal sloshing over seafloor topography play an important role in the energy budget of the oceanic overturning circulation. Understanding their spatial and temporal structure, which depend on both the details of the forcing topography and the forcing frequency, is relevant in predicting how and where wave breaking and mixing may occur. Past work has largely focused on the case of a monochromatic wave field; however, the forcing tides may be composed of multiple frequency constituents. Here we present an approach by which the vertical mode structure of a polychromatic internal wave field may be computed from velocity timeseries data without any a priori knowledge of the details of the forcing topography. We consider wave fields in both uniform and vertically-varying stratification, and show using synthetic data that our approach is able to accurately reconstruct the vertical mode strengths. The sensitivity of our approach to noise and vertical resolution is also examined.     

Coupled, forced response of an axially moving strip with internal resonance

In this paper, the forced response of a non-linear axially moving strip with coupled transverse and longitudinal motions is studied. In particular, the response of the system is examined in the neighborhood of a 3 : 1 internal resonance between the first two transverse modes. The equations of motion are derived using the Hamilton's Principle and discretized by the Galerkin's method. First, with the longitudinal motion neglected, the forced transverse response is investigated by applying the method of multiple scales to assess the effects of speed and the internal resonance. In general, the speed is shown to affect each mode differently. The internal resonance results in the constant solutions having transition to instability of both a saddle-node type and a Hopf bifurcation. In the region where the Hopf bifurcation occurs, steady-state periodic motion does not exist. Instead the stable motion is amplitude- and phase-modulated. When the coupled system with longitudinal motion is examined with internal resonance, results reveal that the modulated motions disappear. Thus, the presence of the longitudinal motion has a stabilizing effect on the transverse modes in the Hopf bifurcation region. The second longitudinal mode is shown to drift due primarily to a direct excitation of the first transverse mode. Effects of the longitudinal motion on the transverse response are shown to be significant for speeds both away from and close to the critical speed.     

Development of a generalised active vibration suppression strategy for a cantilever beam using internal resonance

In this paper, the potential to utilise modal coupling effects in the formulation of a generalised vibration suppression algorithm is investigated. The plant, a flexible cantilever beam undergoing first mode oscillation, is modelled by a second order differential equation with a spring constant and damping coefficient that are representative of the first mode flexibility and material damping of the beam, respectively.In order to establish an internal resonance condition, a second equation, designated the supplementary equation or controller, is appended to the plant to render a two-degree-of-freedom system. The objective is to generate an internally resonant pair. Upon successful completion of this task, a suppression technique is implemented whereby energy is removed from the plant via the supplementary system.The introduction of the supplementary system results in a set of design parameters which are employed to realise a state of internal resonance and to establish the desired dynamic response. The choice of 2:1 internal resonance models results in a unidirectional control torque making this technique particularly attractive for systems using thrusters or tendons as actuators. A similar structural configuration regulated under a PD (Proportional-Derivative) control law is compared to the proposed control scheme via simulation.

The effects of kinematic condensation on internally resonant forced vibrations of shallow horizontal cables

This study aims at comparing non-linear modal interactions in shallow horizontal cables with kinematically non-condensed vs. condensed modeling, under simultaneous primary external and internal resonances. Planar 1:1 or 2:1 internal resonance is considered. The governing partial-differential equations of motion of non-condensed model account for spatio-temporal modification of dynamic tension, and explicitly capture non-linear coupling of longitudinal/vertical displacements. On the contrary, in the condensed model, a single integro-differential equation is obtained by eliminating the longitudinal inertia according to a quasi-static cable stretching assumption, which entails spatially uniform dynamic tension. This model is largely considered in the literature. Based on a multi-modal discretization and a second-order multiple scales solution accounting for higher-order quadratic effects of a infinite number of modes, coupled/uncoupled dynamic responses and the associated stability are evaluated by means of frequency- and force-response diagrams. Direct numerical integrations confirm the occurrence of amplitude-steady or -modulated responses. Non-linear dynamic configurations and tensions are also examined. Depending on internal resonance condition, system elasto-geometric and control parameters, the condensed model may lead to significant quantitative and/or qualitative discrepancies, against the non-condensed model, in the evaluation of resonant dynamic responses, bifurcations and maximal/minimal stresses. Results of even shallow cables reveal meaningful drawbacks of the kinematic condensation and allow us to detect cases where the more accurate non-condensed model has to be used.     

KBM unified method for solving an nth order non-linear differential equation under some special conditions including the case of internal resonance

The Krylov-Bogoliubov-Mitropolskii (KBM) unified method is used for obtaining the approximate solution of an nth order (n?4) ordinary differential equation with small non-linearities when a pair of eigen-values of the unperturbed equation is multiple (approximately or perfectly) of the other pair or pairs. The general solution can be used arbitrarily for over-damped, damped and undamped cases. In a damped or undamped case, one of the natural frequencies of the unperturbed equation may be a multiple of the other. Thus, the solution also covers the case of internal resonance which is an interesting and important part of non-linear oscillation. The determination of the solution is very simple and easier than the existing procedures developed by several authors (both in methods of averaging and multiple time scales) especially to tackle the case of internal resonance. The method is illustrated by an example of a fourth-order differential equation. The solution shows a good agreement with numerical solution in all of the three cases, e.g. over-damped, damped and undamped.

Non-linear vibrations of free-edge thin spherical shells: Experiments on a 1:1:2 internal resonance

This study is devoted to the experimental validation of a theoretical model of large amplitude vibrations of thin spherical shells described in a previous study by the same authors. A modal analysis of the structure is first detailed. Then, a specific mode coupling due to a 1:1:2 internal resonance between an axisymmetric mode and two companion asymmetric modes is especially addressed. The structure is forced with a simple-harmonic signal of frequency close to the natural frequency of the axisymmetric mode. The experimental setup, which allows precise measurements of the vibration amplitudes of the three involved modes, is presented. Experimental frequency response curves showing the amplitude of the modes as functions of the driving frequency are compared to the theoretical ones. A good qualitative agreement is obtained with the predictions given by in the model. Some quantitative discrepancies are observed and discussed, and improvements of the model are proposed.     

Forced vibration analysis of the milling process with structural nonlinearity,internal resonance,tool wear and process damping effects

In this paper, forced vibration analysis of an extended dynamic model of the milling process is investigated, in the presence of internal resonance. Regenerative chatter, structural nonlinearity, tool wear and process damping effects are included in the proposed model. Taking into account the average and first order expansion of Fourier series for cutting force components; their closed form expressions are derived. Moreover, in the presence of large vibration amplitudes, the loss of contact effect is included in this model. Analytical approximate response of the nonlinear system is constructed through the multiple-scales approach. Dynamics of the system is studied for two cases of primary and super-harmonic resonance, associated with the internal resonance. Under steady state motion, the effects of structural nonlinearity, cutting force coefficients, tool wear length and process damping are investigated on the frequency response functions of the system. In addition, existence of multiple solutions, jump phenomenon and energy transfer between vibration modes are presented and compared for tow cases of primary and super-harmonic resonances.     

Dynamics of asymmetrical crack propagation in composite materials

When a crack appears in composite materials, the fibrous system will form bridges, and the crack propagates asymmetrically as a rule. A dynamic model of an asymmetrical crack propagation is considered and investigated by applying the self-similar functions. The formulation involves the development of a Riemann–Hilbert problem. The analytical solution of an asymmetrical propagation crack of composite materials under the action of variable moving loads and unit-step moving loads is obtained.     

Analysis of guided waves with a nonlinear boundary condition caused by internal resonance using the method of multiple scales

We theoretically investigated the cumulative nonlinear guided waves caused by internal resonance, using the method of multiple scales (MMS), which can construct better approximations to the solutions of perturbation problems. In this study, we consider nonlinearity only on the boundary instead of material nonlinearity or geometric nonlinearity. We showed nonlinear effects on the amplitudes of a lower mode and a higher mode depending on the propagation length. Also, we examined effects of wavenumber detuning from a phase matching condition of the two modes. If the wavenumber detuning is exactly equal to zero, the mechanical energy of the lower mode is transferred through nonlinear coupling to the energy of the higher mode, unilaterally. However, if a wavenumber detuning is not equal to zero, amplitude of the two modes change in a cyclic fashion during wave propagation. The amount of this amplitude variation and its cycle length are determined by the eigenfunctions of the two modes, the nonlinear parameter and the wavenumber detuning.     

A novel model of delamination bridging via Z-pins in composite laminates

A new micro-mechanical model is proposed for describing the bridging actions exerted by through-thickness reinforcement on delaminations in prepreg based composite materials, subjected to a mixed-mode (I–II) loading regime. The model applies to micro-fasteners in the form of brittle fibrous rods (Z-pins) inserted in the through-thickness direction of composite laminates. These are described as Euler–Bernoulli beams inserted in an elastic foundation that represents the embedding composite laminate. Equilibrium equations that relate the delamination opening/sliding displacements to the bridging forces exerted by the Z-pins on the interlaminar crack edges are derived. The Z-pin failure meso-mechanics is explained in terms of the laminate architecture and the delamination mode. The apparent fracture toughness of Z-pinned laminates is obtained from as energy dissipated by the pull out of the through-thickness reinforcement, normalised with respect to a reference area. The model is validated by means of experimental data obtained for single carbon/BMI Z-pins inserted in a quasi-isotropic laminate.     

Three-to-one internal resonance in multiple stepped beam systems

In this study, the vibrations of multiple stepped beams with cubic nonlinearities are considered. A three-to-one internal resonance case is investigated for the system. A general approximate solution to the problem is found using the method of multiple scales （a perturbation technique）. The modulation equations of the amplitudes and the phases are derived for two modes. These equations are utilized to determine steady state solutions and their stabilities. It is assumed that the external forcing frequency is close to the lower frequency. For the numeric part of the study, the three-to-one ratio in natural frequencies is investigated. These values are observed to be between the first and second natural frequencies in the cases of the clamped-clamped and clamped-pinned supports, and between the second and third natural frequencies in the case of the pinned-pinned support. Finally, a numeric algorithm is used to solve the three-to-one internal resonance. The first mode is externally excited for the clamped-clamped and clamped-pinned supports, and the second mode is externally excited for the pinned-pinned support. Then, the amplitudes of the first and second modes are investigated when the first mode is externally excited. The amplitudes of the second and third modes are investigated when the second mode is externally excited. The force-response, damping-response, and .frequency- response curves are plotted for the internal resonance modes of vibrations. The stability analysis is carried out for these plots.     

Parametric resonance in non-linear elastodynamics

We show that finite amplitude shearing motions superimposed on an unsteady simple extension are admissible in any incompressible isotropic elastic material. We show that the determining equations for these shearing motions admit a general reduction to a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) in the remarkable case of generalized circularly polarized transverse waves. When these waves are standing and the underlying unsteady simple extension is composed of a harmonic perturbation of a static stretch it is possible to reduce the determining ODEs to linear or non-linear Mathieu equations. We use this property for a detailed study of the phenomenon of parametric resonance in non-linear elastodynamics.
