The generalized method of equivalent linearization is modified to be applicable for multi-degree-of-freedom dynamic systems with nonsymmetric nonlinearities subjected to harmonic monofrequency excitation. Readily applicable formulas are given for the construction of the equivalent linear systems related to a class of systems commonly encountered in engineering applications. As an example of its application, the proposed method is used to generate an approximate steady-state solution for a simple vehicle system. The accuracy of the approximate solutions is determined.

We study the time dependent problem of a nonconducting half-plane sliding on the surface of a conductor with heat generation at the interface due to friction. The conducting half-plane is slightly rounded to give a Hertzian initial pressure distribution. Relationships are established for temperature and thermoelastic displacements due to a heat input of cosine type through the surface, and then these are used to obtain the solution in the form of a double Fourier integral. Numerical results show that, if the ratio of the initial size of the area of contact to that in the steady state is less than some critical value, the area of contact and the pressure distribution change smoothly toward the steady state solution. Otherwise the area of contact goes through bifurcation. The bifurcation accelerates the process. Numerical results are compared with previous approximate solutions.

Free motions of viscously damped linear systems are studied. A heavily damped multi-degree-of-freedom system is defined as one for which all its eigenvalues are real, negative, and semi-simple. Several results are obtained which state conditions for the heavy damping of the system. The conditions are given directly in terms of the coefficients of system matrices and these conditions may yield design constraints in terms of the physical parameters of the system. An example illustrates the validity and usefulness of the presented results.

Time Varying Coefficients

An efficient method for obtaining the steady-state response of linear systems with periodically time varying coefficients is developed. The steady-state solution is obtained by dividing the fundamental period into a number of intervals and establishing, based on a fourth-order Rung-Kutta formulation, the relation between the response at the start and end of the period. Imposition of periodicity condition upon the response facilitates computation of the initial condition that yields the steady-state values in a single pass; i.e., integration over only one period. Through a practical example, the method is shown to be more accurate and computationally more efficient than other known methods for computing the steady-state response.

A numerical analysis is used to investigate the response of non-linear systems under aperiodic excitations based on the harmonic response analysis method. An idea of fine discretization is proposed to turn the aperiodic excitations into the superposition of a series of periodic excitations in a tiny time interval. The method of perturbation is employed to transform the non-linear governing equation into a series of linear differential equations. Harmonic response analysis can be applied in the solution of aperiodic steady response. The algebraic algorithm of direct steady-state analysis can improve computational efficiency. The defect that the steady-state solution can be gotten out until the free vibration attenuates is avoided. The examples show that the numerical results match well with the analytic data.

The steady-state response of a one-degree-of-freedom double bilinear hysteretic model is investigated and it is shown that this model gives rise to the jump phenomenon which is associated with certain nonlinear systems. The stability of the steady-state solution is discussed and it is shown that the model predicts an unbounded resonance for finite excitation.

Mean Square Error Criterion

The paper presents a performance analysis of global-local mean square error criterion of stochastic linearization for some nonlinear oscillators. This criterion of stochastic linearization for nonlinear oscillators bases on dual conception to the local mean square error criterion (LOMSEC). The algorithm is generally built to multi degree of freedom (MDOF) nonlinear oscillators. Then, the performance analysis is carried out for two applications which comprise a rolling ship oscillation and two degree of freedom one. The improvement on accuracy of the proposed criterion has been shown in comparison with the conventional Gaussian equivalent linearization (GEL).

AbstractStochastic Automata Networks (SANs) have a large amount of applications in modelling queueing systems and communication systems. To find the steady state probability distribution of the SANs, it often needs to solve linear systems which involve their generator matrices. However, some classical iterative methods such as the Jacobi and the Gauss-Seidel are inefficient due to the huge size of the generator matrices. In this paper, the multipreconditioned GMRES (MPGMRES) is considered by using two or more preconditioners simultaneously. Meanwhile, a selective version of the MPGMRES is presented to overcome the rapid increase of the storage requirements and make it practical. Numerical results on two models of SANs are reported to illustrate the effectiveness of these proposed methods.

Steady State Solutions

Global interaction of the boundary layer separating from an obstacle with resulting open/closed wakes is studied for a thin airfoil in a steady flow. Replacing the Kutta condition of the classical theory is the breakaway criterion of the laminar triple-deck interaction (Sychev 1972; Smith 1977), which, together with the assumption of a uniform wake/eddy pressure, leads to a nonlinear equation system for the breakaway location and wake shape. The solutions depend on a Reynolds numberReand an airfoil thickness ratio or incidence τ and, in the domain$Re^{\frac{1}{16}}\tau = O(1)$considered, the separation locations are found to be far removed from the classical Brillouin–Villat point for the breakaway from a smooth shape. Bifurcations of the steady-state solution are found among examples of symmetrical and asymmetrical flows, allowing open and closed wakes, as well as symmetry breaking in an otherwise symmetrical flow. Accordingly, the influence of thickness and incidence, as well as Reynolds number is critical in the vicinity of branch points and cut-off points where steady-state solutions can/must change branches/types. The study suggests a correspondence of this bifurcation feature with the lift hysteresis and other aerodynamic anomalies observed from wind-tunnel and numerical studies in subcritical and high-subcriticalReflows.

The influence of the steady state flow solution on the aero-elastic stability behaviour of an annular compressor cascade shall be studied in order to determine sensitivities of the aero-dynamic damping with respect to characteristic flow parameters. In this context two different flow regimes — a subsonic and a transonic case — are subject to the analysis. The pressure distributions, steady as well as unsteady, on the blade surface of the NACA3506 profile are compared to experimental data that has been gained by the Institute of Aeroelasticity of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) during several wind tunnel tests at the annular compressor cascade facility RGP-400 of the Ecole Polytechnique Fe´de´rale de Lausanne (EPFL). Whereas a certain robustness of the unsteady CFD results can be stated for the subsonic flow regime, the transonic regime proves to be very sensitive with respect to the steady state solution.
