Whirling of a forced cantilevered beam with static deflection. II: Superharmonic and subharmonic resonances

Secondary resonances of a slender, elastic, cantilevered beam subjected to a transverse harmonic load are investigated. The effects of nonlinear curvature, nonlinear inertia, viscous damping and static load are included. Cubic terms in the governing equations lead to subharmonic and superharmonic resonances of order three. The static displacement produced by the weight of the beam introduces quadratic terms in the governing equations, which cause subharmonic and superharmonic resonances of order two. Out-of-plane motion is possible in all of these secondary resonances when the principal moments of inertia of the beam cross section are approximately equal.     

A very complicated structure of resonances in a nonlinear system with cyclic symmetry: Nonlinear forced localization

The fundamental and subharmonic resonances of a nonlinear cyclic assembly are examined using the asymptotic method of multiple-scales. The system consists of a number of identical cantilever beams coupled by means of weak linear stiffnesses. Assuming beam inextensionality, geometric nonlinearities arise due to longitudinal inertia and the nonlinear relation between beam curvature and transverse displacement. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are discretized by a Galerkin procedure and the resulting set of coupled ordinary differential equations is solved using an asymptotic analysis. The unforced assembly is known to possess localized nonlinear normal modes, which give rise to a very complicated topological structure of fundamental and subharmonic response curves. In contrast to the linear system which exhibits as many forced resonances as its number of degrees of freedom, the nonlinear system is found to possess a number of additional resonance branches which have no counterparts in linear theory. Some of the additional resonances are spatially localized, corresponding to motions of only a small subset of periodic elements. The analytical results are verified by numerical Poincaré maps, and the forced localization features of the nonlinear assembly are demonstrated by considering its response to impulsive excitations.     

Nonlinear Dynamics of a Cantilever Beam Carrying an Attached Mass with 1:3:9 Internal Resonances

In this paper the nonlinear response of a base-excited slender beam carrying an attached mass is investigated with 1:3:9 internal resonances for principal and combinationparametric resonances. Here the method of normal forms is used to reduce the second order nonlinear temporal differential equation of motion of the system to a set offirst order nonlinear differential equations which are used to find the fixed-point, periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic responses of the system.Stability and bifurcation analysis of the responses are carried out and bifurcation sets are plotted. Many chaotic phenomena are reported in this paper.     

Nonlinear dynamics of a $$\varvec{\phi ^6}-$$ modified Duffing oscillator: resonant oscillations and transition to chaos

The nonlinear dynamics of a hybrid Rayleigh–Van der Pol–Duffing oscillator includes pure and impure quadratic damping are investigated. The multiple timescales method is used to study exhaustively various resonances states. It is noticed that the system presents nine resonances states. The frequency response curves of quintic, third and second superharmonic, and subharmonic resonances states are obtained. Bistability, hysteresis, and jump phenomenon are also obtained. It is pointed out that these resonance phenomena are strongly related to the nonlinear cubic and quadratic damping and to the external force. The numerical simulations are used to make bifurcation sequences displayed by the model for each type of oscillatory. It is noticed that the pure quadratic, impure cubic damping, and external excitation affect regular and chaotic states.

Stability of the wave motion on the charged interface between two immiscible fluids in the presence of a tangential velocity field discontinuity

In the second-order approximation in the dimensionless wave amplitude, the problem of nonlinear periodic capillary-gravity wave motion of the uniformly charged interface between two immiscible ideal incompressible fluids, the lower of which is perfectly electroconductive and the upper, dielectric, moves translationally at a constant velocity parallel to the interface, is solved analytically. It is shown that on the uniformly charged surface of an electroconductive ideal incompressible fluid the positions of internal nonlinear degenerate resonances depend of the medium density ratio but are independent of the upper medium velocity and the surface charge density on the interface. All resonances are realized at densities of the upper medium smaller than the density of the lower medium. In the region of Rayleigh-Taylor instability with respect to density there is no resonant wave interaction.     

Influences of random disturbances on simultaneous resonances of nonlinear coupling systems

The influences of random disturbances on simultaneous resonances of nonlinear coupling systems are dealt with in this paper. First, the approximate probability distribution of behavior of nonlinear system is presented through using the stochastic averaging method. Secondly, using the Monte Carlo numerical simulation method, we study the above mentioned system. Both conclusions are nearly same. It is confirmed that the stochastic averaging method is one of efficient methods for dealing with nonlinear random vibration problems.     

Random excitation of coupled oscillators with single and simultaneous internal resonances

The primary objective of this paper is to examine the random response characteristics of coupled nonlinear oscillators in the presence of single and simultaneous internal resonances. A model of two coupled beams with nonlinear inertia interaction is considered. The primary beam is directly excited by a random support motion, while the coupled beam is indirectly excited through autoparametric coupling and parametric excitation. For a single one-to-two internal resonance, we used Gaussian and non-Gaussian closures, Monte Carlo simulation, and experimental testing to predict and measure response statistics and stochastic bifurcation in the mean square. The mean square stability boundaries of the coupled beam equilibrium position are obtained by a Gaussian closure scheme. The stochastic bifurcation of the coupled beam is predicted theoretically and experimentally. The stochastic bifurcation predicted by non-Gaussian closure is found to take place at a lower excitation level than the one predicted by Gaussian closure and Monte Carlo simulation. It is also found that above a certain excitation level, the solution obtained by non-Gaussian closure reveals numerical instability at much lower excitation levels than those obtained by Gaussian and Monte Carlo approaches. The experimental observations reveal that the coupled beam does not reach a stationary state, as reflected by the time evolution of the mean square response. For the case of simultaneous internal resonances, both Gaussian and non-Gaussian closures fail to predict useful results, and attention is focused on Monte Carlo simulation and experimental testing. The effects of nonlinear coupling parameters, internal detuning ratios, and excitation spectral density level are considered in both investigations. It is found that both studies reveal common nonlinear features such as bifurcations in the mean square responses of the coupled beam and modal interaction in the neighborhood of internal resonances. Furthermore, there is an upper limit for the excitation level above which the system experiences unbounded response in the neighborhood of simultaneous internal resonances.

Analytical approximations and physical interpretation of nonlinear vibrations with internal resonances

Summary In this paper internal resonances of nonlinear vibrations are analytically investigated and physically interpreted. The classical canonical perturbation method is generalized in such a manner that nonlinear vibrations in near internal resonances can be analytically calculated too. As an example a symmetrical system with two degrees of freedom is considered and the instabilities of this system can be explained by internal resonances.

     

Experimental Study of Strongly Nonlinear Resonances and Anti-Resonances in Granular Dimer Chains

Previous theoretical works considered the intrinsic dynamics of one-dimensional uncompressed granular dimer (diatomic) chains composed of pairs of dissimilar spherical elastic beads in Hertzian interaction. Such ordered granular media exhibit essentially nonlinear acoustics and have been characterized as ‘sonic vacua’ due to the fact that the speed of sound in these media (as defined in classical acoustics) is zero. Yet, depending on the mass ratios of the pairs of dissimilar beads of these dimers, it was proven that they may possess countable infinities of anti-resonances leading to solitary waves (this in spite of their high inhomogeneity), or countable infinities of strongly nonlinear resonances leading to passive strong attenuation of propagating pulses through energy radiation by means of excitation of traveling waves. The aim of this work is to experimentally verify the existence of these strongly nonlinear dynamics through a series of experiments involving granular dimer chains supported by flexures. By carefully designing the supporting flexures so that their dynamics is sufficiently ‘soft’ and thus separate from the ‘stiff’ dynamics governing the bead to bead interactions, we overcome a basic limitation for the experimental realization of such dimer systems, namely the construction of one-dimensional dimer chains with beads of different radii. Our results confirm experimentally the occurrence of nonlinear resonances and anti-resonances in dimer chains, and conclusively prove the capacity of appropriately designed granular dimers for passive strong attenuation of propagating pulses due to nonlinear resonance. Moreover, we validate the theoretical prediction that within the elastic range of bead to bead dynamical interactions the results are fully re-scalable with respect to energy. This work provides the first experimental evidence of strongly nonlinear resonances and anti-resonances in essentially nonlinear ordered granular media.     

A geometrically exact approach to the overall dynamics of elastic rotating blades—part 2: flapping nonlinear normal modes

The geometrically exact equations of motion about the prestressed state discussed in part 1 (i.e., the nonlinear equilibrium under centrifugal forces) are expanded in the Taylor series of the incremental displacements and rotations to obtain the third-order perturbed form. The expanded form is amenable to a perturbation treatment to unfold the nonlinear features of free undamped flapping dynamics. The method of multiple scales is thus applied directly to the partial-differential equations of motion to construct the backbone curves of the flapping modes and their nonlinear approximations when they are away from internal resonances with other modes. The effective nonlinearity coefficients of the lowest three flapping modes of elastic isotropic blades are investigated when the angular speed is changed from low- to high-speed regimes. The novelty of the current findings is in the fact that the nonlinearity of the flapping modes is shown to depend critically on the angular speed since it can switch from hardening to softening and vice versa at certain speeds. The asymptotic results are compared with previous literature results. Moreover, 2:1 internal resonances between flapping and axial modes are exhibited as singularities of the effective nonlinearity coefficients. These nonlinear interactions can entail fundamental changes in the blade local and global dynamics.     

Nonlinear sound and structure interaction in a fluid–filled flexible waveguide

In this study, a 2-D infinite flexible waveguide is considered. The waveguide carries a weakly nonlinear acoustic fluid. It is bounded on one side by a weakly nonlinear flexible membrane and the other side is rigid. The infinite waveguide is driven at the origin by a piston oscillating at a single frequency. However, we focus only on the positive side of the piston. As the coupled waves propagate in the membrane and the fluid, the modal interactions lead to resonances and beats which form the main focus of this work. A regular perturbation method is used to derive the linear and the quasilinear order equations which are then solved. At the linear order, the primary wavenumbers are solved for and the modes are found to be non-orthogonal because of the flexible membrane. Only the propagating waves are included in the analysis. Both self-mode and cross-mode interactions of the planar and the non-planar modes are considered. The novelty of this work lies in obtaining conditions and the closed form solutions for the resonances and beats along the spatial coordinate. It is found that the self-mode interactions lead to beats only. And in the self-mode interactions, the coupled planar mode plays an important role. On the other hand, the cross-mode interactions can lead to either resonances or beats.     

Whirling of a forced cantilevered beam with static deflection. I: Primary resonance

The response of a slender, clastic, cantilevered beam to a transverse, vertical, harmonic excitation is investigated. The effects of nonlinear curvature, nonlinear inertia, viscous damping and static load are included. Previous work often has neglected the static deflection caused by the weight of the beam, which adds quadratic terms in the governing equations of motion. Galerkin's method is used with three modes and approximate solutions of the temporal equations are obtained by the method of multiple scales. Primary resonance is treated here, and out-of-plane motion is possible in the first and second modes when the principal moments of inertia of the beam cross-section are approximately equal. In Parts II and III, secondary resonances and nonstationary passages through various resonances are considered.

Subharmonics analysis of nonlinear flexural vibrations of piezoelectrically actuated microcantilevers

Using the method of multiple scales, an extensive frequency response and subharmonic resonance analysis of the equations of motion governing the nonlinear flexural vibrations of piezoelectrically actuated microcantilevers is performed. Such comprehensive understanding of the nonlinear response and subharmonics analysis of these microcantilevers is, indeed, justified by the applications of piezoelectrically actuated microcantilevers that are increasingly becoming popular in many science and engineering areas including scanning force microscopy, biosensors, and microactuators. Along this line, the method of multiple scales is used to derive the 2× and 3× subharmonic resonances appearing in nonlinear flexural vibrations of a piezoelectrically actuated microcantilever. An experimental examination is performed in order to verify the analytical results. The analytical and experimental results yield the same system response for the fundamental frequency. In addition, the experimental results demonstrate the presence of subharmonic resonances that are supported by numerical simulations of the equations of motion. The experimental mode shapes of these subharmonic frequencies are also measured and compared with fundamental frequency.     

Solitary Waves in a Collisionless Plasma with Isothermal Pressure

Wave resonances in the hydrodynamic model of an isotropic collisionless quasi-neutral hot plasma with isothermal ions and electrons are considered. These resonances lead to the formation of two types of solitary waves: solitary waves proper and generalized solitary waves. The latter result from the nonlinear resonance of the proper solitary waves with magnetosonic and Alfvén periodic waves. The possibility of observing these waves in the Earth's magnetospheric plasma is discussed.     

Dynamics of an Elastic Four Bar Linkage Mechanism with Geometric Nonlinearities

The geometric nonlinearity due to the large elastic deformations of three flexible links is considered in setting up the dynamic equation of elastic linkages. It is shown that both the quadratic nonlinear terms and the cubic nonlinear terms are included in the model. The analyses with the method of multiple scales demonstrate that the superharmonic resonances caused by the quadratic and cubic nonlinearities, as well as the multi-frequency nature of the inertial force are the reasons causing the critical speed to take place. They also demonstrate that the combination resonances caused by the combined effects of internal resonance in the form of ₂ 2₁, the cubic nonlinearity and the multi-frequency nature of the inertial forces is the reason causing the production of the nonsynchronism of the lower order harmonic resonances of elastic linkages. Meanwhile, the influences of important system parameters on the resonances are investigated.
