Curved Girders

Abstract In this paper, a semi-analytical solution for free vibration differential equations of curved girders is proposed based on their mathematical properties and vibration characteristics. The solutions of in-plane vibration differential equations are classified into two cases: one only considers variable separation of non-longitudinal vibration, while the other is a synthesis method addressing both longitudinal and non-longitudinal vibration using Rayleigh’s modal assumption and variable separation method. A similar approach is employed for the out of- plane vibration, but further mathematical operations are conducted to incorporate the coupling effect of bending and twisting. In this case study, the natural frequencies of a curved girder under different boundary conditions are obtained using the two proposed methods, respectively. The results are compared with those from the finite element analysis (FEA) and results show good convergence.

This article proposes a new method for the analysis of free vibration of a cracked isotropic plate with various boundary conditions based on Kirchhoff’s theory. The isotropic plate is assumed to have a part-through surface or internal crack. The crack is considered parallel to one of the plate edges. Existence of the crack modified the governing differential equations which were formulated based on the line-spring model. Generalized differential quadrature method discretizes the obtained governing differential equations and converts them into an algebraic system of equations. Then, an eigenvalue analysis was used to determine the natural frequencies of the cracked plates. Some numerical results are given to demonstrate the accuracy and convergence of the obtained results. To demonstrate the efficiency of the method, the results were compared with finite element solutions and available literature. Also, effects of the crack depth, its location along the thickness, the length of the crack and different boundary conditions on the natural frequencies were investigated.

Differential Transform

In this paper, free vibration differential equations of cracked beam are solved by using differential transform method (DTM) that is one of the numerical methods for ordinary and partial differential equations. The Euler–Bernoulli beam model is proposed to study the frequency factors for bending vibration of cracked beam with ant symmetric boundary conditions (as one end is clamped and the other is simply supported). The beam is modeled as two segments connected by a rotational spring located at the cracked section. This model promotes discontinuities in both vertical displacement and rotational due to bending. The differential equations for the free bending vibrations are established and then solved individually for each segment with the corresponding boundary conditions and the appropriated compatibility conditions at the cracked section by using DTM and analytical solution. The results show that DTM provides simple method for solving equations and the results obtained by DTM converge to the analytical solution with much more accurate for both shallow and deep cracks. This study demonstrates that the differential transform is a feasible tool for obtaining the analytical form solution of free vibration differential equation of cracked beam with simple expression.

The present work offers a simple and efficient analytical treatment of the in-plane undamped vibrations of simply supported parabolic arches under parametric excitation. After thoroughly dealing with the free vibration characteristics of the structure dealt with, the differential equations of the forced motion caused by a time dependent axial loading of the form P=P0+Pt cos θt are reduced to a set of Mathieu-Hill type equations. These may be thereafter tackled and the dynamic stability problem comprehensively discussed. An illustrative example based on Bolotin’s approach produces results validating the proposed method.

The Law

The theory of Ritz is applied to the equation that Hamilton called the “Law of Varying Action.” Direct analytical solutions are obtained for the transient motion of beams, both conservative and nonconservative. The results achieved are compared to exact solutions obtained by the use of rigorously exact free-vibration modes in the differential equations of Lagrange and to an approximate solution obtained through the application of Gurtin’s principles for linear elastodynamics. A brief discussion of Hamilton’s law and Hamilton’s principle is followed by examples of results for both free-free and cantilever beams with various loadings.

The Ideal

Dimensionless differential equations are developed which model a hydraulic shock absorber. These equations are solved numerically to determine quantitatively the effects of fluid compressibility and series and parallel springs on the shock absorber operation. Both variable and constant orifice area are considered for a system protecting a mass during impact against a rigid wall. The results show that a finely tuned variable area shock absorber is degraded by the considered forms of compliance. Performance of the constant area shock absorber can be improved by including compliance and, with an appropriate parallel spring, the ideal flat deceleration profile can be obtained without variable orifice area.

The present work investigates the effects of the curvature terms in the three-dimensional (3D) equilibrium equations used for the free vibration analysis of functionally graded material (FGM) structures. The 3D equilibrium equations have been written in general orthogonal curvilinear coordinates which are valid for spherical shells. They automatically degenerate in those for cylindrical shells and plates considering one of the two radii of curvature and both radii of curvature equal to infinite, respectively. The approximation of curvature terms in the 3D equilibrium equations has been evaluated by means of frequency analyses. Results obtained via 3D equilibrium equations with exact geometry have been compared with those calculated via 3D equilibrium equations written with the approximation of the curvature terms. The effects of the curvature approximations depend on the thickness and curvature of the structures, on the materials, lamination sequences and FGM laws, on the frequency orders and vibration modes. The resulting system of second order partial differential equations has been reduced into a system of first order partial differential equations redoubling the variables. Therefore, the exponential matrix method has been employed using a layer wise approach. The final 3D equations have been solved in exact form considering harmonic displacement components and simply supported structures. The approximation of the curvature terms has been introduced in the 3D equilibrium shell equations. For numerical reasons, interlaminar continuity conditions and the top and bottom boundary and loading conditions have been written including the exact geometry. The introduction of curvature approximations only in the equilibrium equations is sufficient to obtain an exhaustive qualitative analysis of the importance of curvature terms in the free vibration problems for FGM structures.
