On coupled transversal and axial motions of two beams with a joint

In this paper we develop and analyze a mathematical model for combined axial and transverse motions of two Euler-Bernoulli beams coupled through a joint composed of two rigid bodies. The motivation for this problem comes from the need to accurately model damping and joints for the next generation of inflatable/rigidizable space structures. We assume Kelvin-Voigt damping in the two beams whose motions are coupled through a joint which includes an internal moment. The resulting equations of motion consist of four, second-order in time, partial differential equations, four second-order ordinary differential equations, and certain compatibility boundary conditions. The system is re-cast as an abstract second-order differential equation in an appropriate Hilbert space, consisting of function spaces describing the distributed beam deflections, and a finite-dimensional space that projects important features at the joint boundary. Semigroup theory is used to prove the system is well posed, and that with positive damping parameters the resulting semigroup is analytic and exponentially stable. The spectrum of the infinitesimal generator is characterized.     

A note on a conjecture for the critical curve of a weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations with scale-invariant lower order terms

In this note, two blow-up results are proved for a weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations with distinct scale-invariant lower order terms both in the subcritical case and in the critical case when the damping and the mass terms make both equations in some sense “wave-like.” In the proof of the subcritical case, an iteration argument is used. This approach is based on a coupled system of nonlinear ordinary integral inequalities and lower bound estimates for the spatial integral of the nonlinearities. In the critical case, we employ a test function-type method that has been developed recently by Ikeda-Sobajima-Wakasa and relies strongly on a family of certain self-similar solutions of the adjoint linear equation. Therefore, as critical curve in the p−q plane of the exponents of the power nonlinearities for this weakly coupled system, we conjecture a shift of the critical curve for the corresponding weakly coupled system of semilinear wave equations.     

On the spectrum of Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with Kelvin-Voigt damping

The spectral property of an Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with clamped boundary conditions and internal Kelvin-Voigt damping is considered. The essential spectrum of the system operator is rigorously identified to be an interval on the left real axis. Under some assumptions on the coefficients, it is shown that the essential spectrum contains continuous spectrum only, and the point spectrum consists of isolated eigenvalues of finite algebraic multiplicity. The asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues is presented.     

Mechatronic system with shunted piezoelectric damper modelled with structural damping

Paper presents analysis of an one-dimension flexural vibrating mechatronic system. The considered system is a cantilever beam with a piezoelectric transducer bonded to the beam's surface. An external electric circuit is adjoined to the transducer's clamps in order to damp vibrations. System was analyzed on the basis of an approximate Galerkin method. Verification and assumptions of the approximate method were described in the previous papers where analysis of the mechatronic system with piezoelectric shunt damper was presented. Structural damping of all system's components was being taken into consideration. Rheological properties were introduced using Kelvin-Voigt model of materials. Influences of component's structural damping coefficients values on the system's dynamic flexibility were defined. Obtained results were presented on 3D graphs as dynamic flexibility dependence on the structural damping coefficient and frequency of an external force that was applied to the system.

New Class of Kirchhoff Type Equations with Kelvin-Voigt Damping and General Nonlinearity: Local Existence and Blow-up in Solutions

In this paper, we consider a class of Kirchhoff equation, in the presence of a Kelvin-Voigt type damping and a source term of general nonlinearity forms. Where the studied equation is given as follows\begin{equation*}u_{tt} -\mathcal{K}\left( \mathcal{N}u(t)\right)\left[ \Delta_{p(x)}u +\Delta_{r(x)}u_{t}\right]=\mathcal{F}(x, t, u).\end{equation*}Here, $\mathcal{K}\left( \mathcal{N}u(t)\right)$ is a Kirchhoff function, $\Delta_{r(x)}u_{t}$ represent a Kelvin-Voigt strong damping term, and $\mathcal{F}(x, t, u)$ is a source term. According to an appropriate assumption, we obtain the local existence of the weak solutions by applying the Galerkin's approximation method. Furthermore, we prove a non-global existence result for certain solutions with negative/positive initial energy. More precisely, our aim is to find a sufficient conditions for $p(x), q(x), r(x), \mathcal{F}(x,t,u)$ and the initial data for which the blow-up occurs.     

Dynamics of a Rod Made of Generalized Kelvin-Voigt Visco-elastic Material

In this paper we develop a new mathematical model for the lateral vibration of an axially compressed visco-elastic rod. As the basis for this model we use a fractional derivative type of stress-strain relation. We show that the dynamics of the lateral vibration is governed by two coupled linear differential equations with fractional derivatives. For a special case of the generalized Kelvin-Voigt body, this system is reduced to a single fractional derivative differential equation (Eq. (19)). For a class of problems to which (19) belongs the questions of the existence of a solution and its regularity are analyzed. Both continuous and impulsive loading are treated.     

Existence and nonexistence of global positive solutions for a weakly coupled P-Laplacian system

In this paper, we deal with a weakly coupled evolution P-Laplacian system with inhomogeneous terms. We obtain a critical criterion concerning existence and nonexistence of its global positive solutions. Such a criterion is different from that of the weakly coupled evolution P-Laplacian system with homogeneous terms. Further, we demonstrate existence and nonexistence of its global positive solutions.     

Resonant vibrations in harmonically excited weakly coupled mechanical systems with cyclic symmetry

The resonant vibrations in weakly coupled nonlinear cyclic symmetric structures are studied. These structures consist of weakly coupled identical nonlinear oscillators. A careful bifurcation analysis of the amplitude equations is performed in the fundamental resonance case for an illustrative example consisting of a three particle system. In case of a uniformly distributed excitation, a localized response is identified in which one of the particles exhibits large amplitude motions compared to those of the other particles. In case of single-particle excitation, it is found that for very small coupling strength and large external mistuning, a large stable localized periodic response coexists with an extended small response. With an increase in the coupling strength, multiple extended solutions arise near the exact external resonance via saddle-node bifurcations. Further increase in coupling strength and a decrease in damping results in isolated asymmetric solution branches, which bifurcate from the symmetric solutions via symmetry-breaking bifurcations. The role of coupling strength in creating/destroying localized solutions is discussed.     

Exponential Decay Rates for Structural Acoustic Model with an Overdamping on the Interface and Boundary Layer Dissipation

We study uniform stability properties of a strongly coupled system of Partial Differential Equations of hyperbolic/parabolic type, which arises from the analysis and control of acoustic models with structural damping on an interface. A challenging feature of the present model is the presence of additional strong boundary damping which is responsible for lack of uniform stability of the free system ( overdamping phenomenon). It has been shown recently that by applying full viscous damping in the interior of the domain and suitable static damping on the interface, then the corresponding feedback system is uniformly stable. In this article we prove that uniform decay rates of solutions to the system can be achieved even if viscous damping is active just in an arbitrary thin layer near the interface.     

Structure of the global attractor for a second order strongly damped lattice system

In this paper, we consider the dynamical behavior of a second order strongly damped lattice system where the coupled operator is nonnegative definite symmetric. Firstly, we prove the existence of a global attractor, and give an upper bound of Hausdorff dimension of the global attractor, which keeps bounded for large strongly damping. Then we show that when the damping term is linear and the damping is suitable large, the system has an unbounded one-dimensional global attractor, which is a restricted horizontal curve.
