Combination,principal parametric and internal resonances of an accelerating beam under two frequency parametric excitation

This study analyses the nonlinear transverse vibration of an axially moving beam subject to two frequency excitation. Focus has been made on simultaneous resonant cases i.e. principal parametric resonance of first mode and combination parametric resonance of additive type involving first two modes in presence of internal resonance. By adopting the direct method of multiple scales, the governing nonlinear integro-partial differential equation for transverse motion is reduced to a set of nonlinear first order ordinary partial differential equations which are solved either by means of continuation algorithm or via direct time integration. Specifically, the frequency response plots and amplitude curves, their stability and bifurcation are obtained using continuation algorithm. Numerical results reveal the rich and interesting nonlinear phenomena that have not been presented in the existent literature on the nonlinear dynamics of axially moving systems.     

Coupled fluid structure analysis for wing 445.6 flutter using a fast dynamic mesh technology

The flow around wing 445.6 was modelled using Navier–Stokes equations and S-A model. The wing vibration and flow mesh deformation were computed using a fast dynamic mesh technology proposed by our own group. Wing 445.6 flutter was analysed through a strong coupling between the wing vibration and flow. The reduced flutter velocity was predicted and results are in good agreement with the experimental data. It is found that the subsonic flutter is mainly induced by the flow separation and the transonic and supersonic flutter are mainly caused by the oscillating shock wave and its induced flow separation. The positive aerodynamic work increases due to the oscillating shock wave when the subsonic flow becomes transonic reducing the flutter velocity. While the positive aerodynamic work induced by the oscillating shock wave decreases when the transonic flow becomes supersonic increasing the flutter velocity. That is why the transonic dip exists.     

The effect of parametric excitation on a self-excited three-mass system

This contribution deals with the quenching of self-excited vibrations by means of parametric excitation due to periodic variation of spring stiffness. A three-mass chain system is investigated in detail. It is shown that the self-excitation can be fully or partly suppressed in a particular frequency interval.     

Enhanced damping of a cantilever beam by axial parametric excitation

A uniform cantilever beam under the effect of a time-periodic axial force is investigated. The beam structure is discretized by a finite-element approach. The linearised equations of motion describing the planar bending vibrations of the beam structure lead to a system with time-periodic stiffness coefficients. The stability of the system is investigated by a numerical method based on Floquet’s theorem and an analytical approach resulting from a first-order perturbation. It is demonstrated that the parametrically excited beam structure exhibits enhanced damping properties, when excited near a specific parametric combination resonance frequency. A certain level of the forcing amplitude has to be exceeded to achieve the damping effect. Upon exceeding this value, the additional artificial damping provided to the beam is significant and works best for suppression of vibrations of the first vibrational mode of the cantilever beam.     

Multi-mode parametric excitation of a simply supported plate under time-varying and non-uniform edge loading

In this study, multi-mode parametric excitation of a simply supported plate under time-varying and non-uniform edge loading is modeled and the solution is found. Equations for multi-mode parametric excitation of a simply supported plate are derived using stress distributions within the plate as well as on the edges, considering both the effects of non-uniform edge loading and the non-linearity caused by the large deflection. The multi-mode equations are coupled by first-order linear terms, even in the case of simply supported boundary conditions, due to the non-uniform edge loading. The perturbation solutions of two-mode parametric excitation are examined by the method of multiple scales. For the edge loading, which consists of a uniform term as well as a non-uniform one, equations could be coupled or de-coupled by parametric excitation terms, and the numbers and values of the resonance frequencies of the parametric excitations could also differ, depending on whether the non-uniform term of the edge loading is time-varying or not. In addition to the resonant frequencies of the case when only the uniform term of the edge loading is time-varying, there are additional combination resonances at the vicinity of the sum of two natural frequencies of each mode when the non-uniform term of the non-uniform edge loading is time-varying.     

Nonlinear aeroelastic analysis of a two-dimensional wing with control surface in supersonic flow

Based on the piston theory of supersonic flow and the energy method, a two dimensional wing with a control surface in supersonic flow is theoretically modeled, in which the cubic stiffness in the torsional direction of the control surface is considered. An approximate method of the cha- otic response analysis of the nonlinear aeroelastic system is studied, the main idea of which is that under the condi- tion of stable limit cycle flutter of the aeroelastic system, the vibrations in the plunging and pitching of the wing can approximately be considered to be simple harmonic excita- tion to the control surface. The motion of the control surface can approximately be modeled by a nonlinear oscillation of one-degree-of-freedom. The range of the chaotic response of the aeroelastic system is approximately determined by means of the chaotic response of the nonlinear oscillator. The rich dynamic behaviors of the control surface are represented as bifurcation diagrams, phase-plane portraits and PS diagrams. The theoretical analysis is verified by the numerical results.     

Internal resonance of an axially transporting beam with a two-frequency parametric excitation

This paper investigates the transverse 3:1 internal resonance of an axially transporting nonlinear viscoelastic Euler-Bernoulli beam with a two-frequency parametric excitation caused by a speed perturbation. The Kelvin-Voigt model is introduced to describe the viscoelastic characteristics of the axially transporting beam. The governing equation and the associated boundary conditions are obtained by Newton’s second law. The method of multiple scales is utilized to obtain the steady-state responses. The Routh-Hurwitz criterion is used to determine the stabilities and bifurcations of the steady-state responses. The effects of the material viscoelastic coefficient on the dynamics of the transporting beam are studied in detail by a series of numerical demonstrations. Interesting phenomena of the steady-state responses are revealed in the 3:1 internal resonance and two-frequency parametric excitation. The approximate analytical method is validated via a differential quadrature method.     

Principal parametric resonances of a slender cantilever beam subject to axial narrow-band random excitation of its base

The non-linear integro-differential equations of motion for a slender cantilever beam subject to axial narrow-band random excitation are investigated. The method of multiple scales is used to determine a uniform first-order expansion of the solution of equations. According to solvability conditions, the non-linear modulation equations for the principal parametric resonance are obtained. Firstly, The largest Lyapunov exponent which determines the almost sure stability of the trivial solution is quantificationally resolved, in which, the modified Bessel function of the first kind is introduced. Results show that the increase of the bandwidth facilitates the almost sure stability of the trivial response and stabilizes the system for a lower acceleration oscillating amplitude but intensifies the instability of the trivial response for a higher one. Secondly, the first and second order non-trivial steady state response of the system is obtained by perturbation method and the corresponding amplitude–frequency curves are calculated when the bandwidth is very small. Results show that the effective non-linearity of whether the amplitude expectation of the first order steady state response or the amplitude expectation of the second order steady state response is of the hardening type for the first mode, whereas for the second mode the effective non-linearity of whether the amplitude expectation of the first order steady state response or the amplitude expectation of the second order steady state response is of the softening type. Finally, the stochastic jump and bifurcation is investigated for the first and second modal parametric principal resonance. The basic jump phenomena indicate that, under the conditions of system parameters with a smaller bandwidth, the most probable motion is around the non-trivial branch of the amplitude response curve, whereas with a higher bandwidth, the most probable motion is around the trivial one of the amplitude response curve. However, the stochastic jump is sometimes more sensitive to the change of the bandwidth, in other words, a small change of bandwidth may induce a series of stochastic jump and bifurcation.     

Parametric excitation of waves on a free boundary of a horizontal fluid layer

We consider the dynamical stability of horizontal fluid layer, performing harmonic oscillations in vertical direction. The continued fractions approach allowed us to avoid the conventional restriction to the case of small viscosity and almost-resonant frequencies. Our numerical results cover a wide range of the parameters (viscosity, amplitude and frequency of the oscillation, and depth of the layer). To cite this article: V.I. Yudovich et al., C. R.
