This paper presents the expressions for the vibrational power flow (VPF) in beam-plate structures (BPSs) with isolation components for three different cases: case 1 is when the isolation component 1 (IC1) is added at the free end of the beam; case 2 is when the isolation component 2 (IC2) is embedded between the beam and the plate; case 3 is when IC1 is at the end of the beam, and IC2 is between the beam and the plate (IC1,2). The BPS is composed of a constant-cross-section beam and a thin flat rectangular plate with four edges simply supported. According to these expressions the corresponding numerical calculations are implemented. The influence of the parameters of the isolation components on the VPF is also considered. The calculated VPF in the structures are compared with the corresponding measured VPF. There is good agreement between them. The analytical method presented in the paper provides a tool for analysing vibrational energy transmission between the support roller and the armoured plate of a tracked vehicle. Some valuable conclusions have been applied to the vibration and noise control of tracked vehicles.

Coupled H-shaped three-plate structures are extensively used as support platforms for machinery structures in engineering applications. These structures are constructed with various types of real engineering boundaries and coupling mechanisms. This investigation presents a numerical analysis of the effect of finitely varying boundary and coupling conditions on the vibration and power flow characteristics of a coupled H-shaped three-plate system. Modified Fourier series approximation of out-of-plane and in-plane displacement along with the Rayleigh–Ritz energy minimising procedure has been utilised for theoretical analysis, and different cases of variation of boundary and coupling spring stiffnesses have been taken to numerically analyse its effect on the vibration and power flow characteristics of the plate system. The numerical results indicate the presence of three different zones of finite coupling stiffness combinations at the coupled junction wherein the natural frequency and mode shapes undergo a major alteration. The decay or amplification of power flow characteristics across the plate junctions has been found to be highly dependent on the coupling stiffness values at the junctions. The consideration of general boundaries and coupling conditions in coupled plate systems is an essential design necessity for accurate prediction of the dynamic behaviour of coupled plate structures as their finite variations greatly influence the vibration and power flow characteristics of the coupled system.

Abstract In this paper we study the closed loop power flow characteristics between a controlled piezoelectric actuator and a current controlled drive amplifier for two different structural control laws. We determine the real and reactive power flow through the structure and actuator into the amplifier when the structure is excited with a sinusoidal disturbance force under both control laws. The dependence of the real and reactive components of the power on the material properties of the actuator, structure and the configuration of the controller is presented. These real and reactive power estimates are useful for sizing the drive amplifier for the actuator.

This study examines wave attenuation and power flow characteristics of sandwich beams with internal absorbers. Two types of absorbing systems embedded in the core are considered, namely, a conventional spring-mass-dashpot system having a mass with a spring and a dashpot in parallel, and a relaxation system containing an additional relaxation spring added in series with the dashpot. Analytical continuum models used for interpreting the attenuation behavior of sandwich structures are presented. Through the analysis of the power flowing into the structure, the correlation of wave attenuation and energy blockage is revealed. The reduction in the power flow indicates that some amount of energy produced by the external force can be effectively obstructed by internal absorbers. The effects of parameters on peak attenuation, bandwidth, and power flow are also studied.

Flexible manipulator generally can be modeled as a coupling system with a flexible beam and a rigid moving base. This paper investigates the vibration responses and power flow of a flexible manipulator with a moving base (FMMB). Considering the motion characteristics of the rigid base, the moving base is modeled to have a motion with disturbances, and the dynamic model of the FMMB is established. With the dynamic model, vibration responses of the FMMB for the rigid base having disturbance velocities and accelerations are specifically presented. Subsequently, to investigate the effect of the disturbances on the vibration energy distributions of the FMMB, power flow of the FMMB is exhibited. To verify the dynamic model, an ADAMS physical model of the FMMB is constructed. It reveals that the motion characteristics of the rigid base have a noticeable effect on the vibration responses and power flow of the FMMB and should be considered. The results are significant and contribute to the vibration control of flexible manipulators.
