A spectral resolving method for analyzing linear random vibrations with variable parameters

This paper is a development of ref. [1]. Consider the following random equation: Z(t)+2βZ(t)+ω₀²Z(t)=(a⁰+a¹Z(t))I(t)+c in which excitation I(t) and response Z(y) are both random processes, and it is proposed that they are mutually independent. Suppose that a(t) is a known function of time and I(t) is a stationary random process. In this paper, the spectral resolving form of the random equation stated above, the numerical solving method and the solutions in some special cases are considered.

A perturbation method for nonlinear vibrations of imperfect structures: Application to cylindrical shell vibrations

A perturbation method is used to analyse the nonlinear vibration behaviour of imperfect general structures under static preloading. The method is based on a perturbation expansion for both the frequency parameter and the dependent variables. The effects on the linearized and nonlinear vibrations caused by geometric imperfections, a static fundamental state, and a nontrivial static state are included in the perturbation procedure.The theory is applied in the nonlinear vibration analysis of anisotropic cylindrical shells. In the analysis the specified boundary conditions at the shell edges can be satisfied accurately. The characteristics of the analysis capability are shown through examples of the vibration behaviour of specific shells. Results for single mode and coupled mode nonlinear vibrations of shells are presented. Parametric studies have been performed for a composite shell.     

A meshfree method for transverse vibrations of anisotropic plates

A meshfree approach, called displacement boundary method, for anisotropic Kirchhoff plate dynamic analysis is presented. This method is deduced from a variational principle, which uses a modified hybrid functional involving the generalized displacements and generalized tractions on the boundary and the lateral deflection in the domain as independent variables. The discretization process is based on the employment of the fundamental solutions of the static problem operator for the expression of the variables involved in the functional. The stiffness and mass matrices obtained for the dynamic model are frequency-independent, symmetric and positive definite and their computation involves boundary integrals of regular kernels only. Due to its features, the final resolving system can be solved with the classical approaches by using standard numerical procedures. To assess the formulation, the free vibrations of some anisotropic plates were calculated and the results compared with those obtained using other solution techniques. The present results are in good agreement with those found in the literature showing the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed approach.

A simplified method for time domain simulation of cross-flow vortex-induced vibrations

A new method for time domain simulation of cross-flow vortex-induced vibrations of slender circular cylindrical structures is developed. A model for the synchronization between the lift force and structure motion is derived from already established data for the cross-flow excitation coefficient. The proposed model is tested by numerical simulations, and the results are compared to experimental observations. When a sinusoidal cross-flow motion is given as input to the algorithm, the generated force time series are generally in good agreement with experimental measurements of cross-flow force in phase with cylinder velocity and acceleration. The model is also utilized in combination with time integration of the equation of motion to simulate the cross-flow vibration of a rigid cylinder. The resulting amplitude and frequency of motion as functions of reduced velocity are compared to published experimental results. In combination with the finite element method, the model is used to simulate cross-flow vibrations of a flexible cylinder in shear flow. Comparison with experiments shows that the model is capable of reproducing important quantities such as frequency, mode and amplitude, although some discrepancies are seen. This must be expected due to the complexity of the problem and the simple form of the present method.
