Abstract This study aims at the comparative analysis and improvement of different analytical crack models for rotating blade. Part II of this study focuses on the comparative analysis of dynamic characteristics based on modified models mentioned in Part I. A nonlinear damage indicator (NDI) and an equivalent energy indicator (EEI) are introduced to characterize the nonlinear effect of crack from different perspectives. EEI offers a physical mechanism explanation of crack closing behavior, which is invisible. Meanwhile, NDI offers an observable indicator to quantify the nonlinearity of crack. It is demonstrated through the numerical study that the variation of NDI and EEI varies the same with each other, which cross-verified the validity of NDI and EEI for quantifying the nonlinear effect of crack. Comparative investigations are performed to analyze the effects of load amplitude, crack depth, and crack location on the nonlinear dynamics of cracked blade, and both NDI and EEI are utilized to quantify the nonlinear effects of crack. The comparative results suggest that NDI of the second order super-harmonic component increase with the increasing crack depth and excitation load amplitude and decreases with the increasing crack locations, while the variation of EEI follows the variation of NDI. This phenomenon indicates that the crack which is deeper and closer to blade root under a larger load will be more dangerous. This study's comparative results may provide some guidance for choosing the analytical crack models when analyzing the nonlinear dynamics of rotating cracked-blade and blade health monitoring.

The focus of this paper is on the nonlinear dynamics and control of the scan process in noncontacting atomic force microscopy. An initial-boundary-value problem is consistently formulated to include both nonlinear dynamics of a microcantilever with a localized atomic interaction force for the surface it is mapping, and a horizontal boundary condition for a constant scan speed and its control. The model considered is obtained using the extended Hamilton’s principle which yields two partial differential equations for the combined horizontal and vertical motions. Isolation of a Lagrange multiplier describing the microbeam fixed length enables construction of a modified equation of motion which is reduced to a single mode dynamical system via Galerkin’s method. The analysis includes a numerical study of the strongly nonlinear system leading to a stability map describing an escape bifurcation threshold where the tip, at the free end of the microbeam, ‘jumps-to-contact’ with the sample. Results include periodic ultrasubharmonic and quasiperiodic solutions corresponding to primary and secondary resonances.
