The Stability

The parametric excitation of an axially moving plate is examined in an application where a partial foundation moves in the plane of the plate and in a direction orthogonal to the plate’s transport. The stability of the plate’s out-of-plane vibration is of interest in a magnetic tape data storage application where the read/write head is substantially narrower than the tape’s width and is repositioned during track-following maneuvers. In this case, the model’s equation of motion has time-dependent coefficients, and vibration is excited both parametrically and by direct forcing. The parametric instability of out-of-plane vibration is analyzed by using the Floquet theory for finite values of the foundation’s range of motion. For a relatively soft foundation, vibration is excited preferentially at the primary resonance of the plate’s fundamental torsional mode. As the foundation’s stiffness increases, multiple primary and combination resonances occur, and they dominate the plate’s stability; small islands, however, do exist within unstable zones of the frequency-amplitude parameter space for which vibration is marginally stable. The plate’s and foundation’s geometry, the foundation’s stiffness, and the excitation’s amplitude and frequency can be selected in order to reduce undesirable vibration that occurs along the plate’s free edge.

The nonlinear vibration of a travelling beam subjected to principal parametric resonance in presence of internal resonance is investigated. The beam velocity is assumed to be comprised of a constant mean value along with a harmonically varying component. The stretching of neutral axis introduces geometric cubic nonlinearity in the equation of motion of the beam. The natural frequency of second mode is approximately three times that of first mode; a three-to-one internal resonance is possible. The method of multiple scales (MMS) is directly applied to the governing nonlinear equations and the associated boundary conditions. The nonlinear steady state response along with the stability and bifurcation of the beam is investigated. The system exhibits pitchfork, Hopf, and saddle node bifurcations under different control parameters. The dynamic solutions in the periodic, quasiperiodic, and chaotic forms are captured with the help of time history, phase portraits, and Poincare maps showing the influence of internal resonance.

Abstract The present paper addresses axially moving beams with co-moving concentrated masses while undergoing large deformations. For the numerical modeling, a novel beam finite element is introduced, which is based on the absolute nodal coordinate formulation extended with an additional Eulerian coordinate to represent the axial motion. The resulting formulation is well known as Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) method, which is often used for axially moving beams and pipes conveying fluids. As compared to previous formulations, the present formulation allows us to introduce the Eulerian part by an independent coordinate, which fully incorporates the dynamics of the axial motion, while the shape functions remain independent of the beam coordinates and are thus constant. The proposed approach, which is derived from an extended version of Lagrange’s equations of motion, allows for the investigation of the stability of axially moving beams for a certain axial velocity and stationary state of large deformation. A multibody modeling approach allows us to extend the beam formulation for co-moving discrete masses, which represent concentrated masses attached to the beam, e.g., gondolas in ropeway systems, or transported masses in conveyor belts. Within numerical investigations we show that a larger number of discrete masses behaves similarly as the case of (continuously) distributed mass along the beam.

Sample Case

The present paper analyzes the dynamic behavior of a simply supported beam subjected to an axial transport of mass. The Galerkin method is used to discretize the problem: a high dimensional system of ordinary differential equations with linear gyroscopic part and cubic nonlinearities is obtained. The system is studied in the sub and super-critical speed ranges with emphasis on the stability and the global dynamics that exhibits special features after the first bifurcation. A sample case of a physical beam is developed and numerical results are presented concerning the convergence of the series expansion, linear subcritical behavior, bifurcation analysis and stability, and direct simulation of global postcritical dynamics. A homoclinic orbit is found in a high dimensional phase space and its stability and collapse are studied. [S0739-3717(00)00501-8]

Moving Media

The dynamics of an axially-moving flexible medium are examined in the context of an application where the medium is partially supported by a frictional surface, that actively-orients itself relative to the direction of transport. The stability and motion of the medium are of interest in a magnetic tape data storage application where the orientation of a sensing surface is continuously altered in order to ‘follow’ the medium’s motion. Moving media that are in contact with such guiding surfaces experience friction excitations induced by the relative motion in addition to what is observed with a stationary guiding surface. Friction-induced bending moments, as well as tension fluctuation beyond the permissible limits for the flexible material can erode the potential benefits of such active positioning. This paper describes some of these dynamic phenomena using the simplified example of a planar guiding surface whose orientation is dynamically altered relative to the moving medium. A physical model for the friction-induced excitation of the moving medium is developed, and the dynamics are analyzed for their effect on critical design parameters such as the achievable bandwidth of the active control algorithm, as well as with respect to constraints on the geometry and positioning of the guiding surface.

Abstract The present work addresses pipes conveying fluid and axially moving beams undergoing large deformations. A novel two dimensional beam finite element is presented, based on the Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation (ANCF) with an extra Eulerian coordinate to describe axial motion. The resulting formulation is well known as Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) method, which is often used to model axially moving beams and pipes conveying fluid. The proposed approach, which is derived from an extended version of Lagrange's equations of motion, allows for the investigation of the stability of pipes conveying fluid and axially moving beams for a certain axial velocity and stationary state of large deformation. Additionally, a multibody modeling approach allows us to extend the beam formulation for co-moving discrete masses, which represent concentrated masses attached to the beam, e.g., gondolas in ropeway systems, or transported masses in conveyor belts. Within numerical investigations, we show that axially moving beams and a larger number of discrete masses behave similarly as the case of (continuously) distributed mass.

Transverse vibration of an axially moving viscoelastic sandwich beam is investigated in this paper. Based on the Kelvin constitutive equation, transverse controlling equation is established. First of all, the multiple scales method is applied to obtained steady-state response. Elimination of scales terms will give us the amplitude of vibrations. Additionally, the stability conditions of trivial and non-trivial solutions are analyzed using Routh-Hurwitz criterion. Eventually, numerical results are obtained to show the thickness of core layer, mean velocity, the amplitude of fluctuation effects on natural frequencies and response curves.

The Stability

The stability and dynamics of an axially moving unidirectional plate partially immersed in a liquid and subjected to a nonlinear aerodynamic excitation are investigated. The method of singular functions is adopted to study the dynamic characteristics of the unidirectional plates with discontinuous characteristics. Nonlinearities due to large-amplitude plate motions are considered by using the classical nonlinear thin plate theory, with allowance for the effect of viscous structural damping. The velocity potential and Bernoulli's equation are used to describe the fluid pressure acting on the unidirectional plate. The effect of fluid on the vibrations of the plate may be equivalent to added mass of the plate. The formulation of added mass is obtained from kinematic boundary conditions of the plate–fluid interfaces. The system is discretized by Galerkin's method while a model involving two degrees of freedom, is adopted. Attention is focused on the behavior of the system in the region of dynamic instability, and several motions are found by numerical simulations. The effects of the moving speed and some other parameters on the dynamics of the system are also investigated. It is shown that chaotic motions can occur in this system in several certain regions of parameter space.
