The viscoelastic damper is one of the most promising devices for vibration mitigation. In order to reduce dynamic responses of iced transmission lines due to strong wind, a new kind of viscoelastic antigalloping device (VEAGD) is developed. Experimental and theoretical studies indicate that the device has fine energy dissipation capacity and high damping characteristic. Then, the motion equations of the iced quad-bundle transmission lines incorporated with VEAGDs are established by employing Lagrange equation based on the assumed mode method. At the same time, the parameters and positions of the VEAGDs are determined optimally by the genetic algorithm. Numerical analysis results show that VEAGDs have excellent antigalloping effect, and the dynamic responses of the transmission lines with optimally designed VEAGDs are mitigated more effectively.

By used the assumed mode method to simulate the iced transmission line galloping,with three generalized coordinates to represent the iced transmission line galloping. In order to avoid the complicated calculation of vector,used the Lagrange equation to build the nonlinear equations of iced transmission line from the perspective of energy,used the Runge-Kutta numerical calculation to solve the equations of motion and get the iced transmission line’s across-wind,along-wind and the torsional response. Based on Lyapunov stability theory to deduce the critical wind speed of the iced transmission line galloping. And had used a test iced transmission line to verify the feasibility of the numerical solution and the critical wind speed.

The rigid-flexible coupling system with a hub and concentrated mass is studied in this paper. Considering the second-order coupling of axial displacement which is caused by transverse deformation of the beam, the dynamic equations of the system are established using the second Lagrange equation and the assumed mode method. The simulation results show that the concentrated mass mainly suppresses the vibration and exhibits damping characteristics. When the nondimensional mass position parameterβ>0.67, the first natural frequency is reduced as the concentrated mass increases. Whenβ<0.67, the first natural frequency is increased as the concentrated mass increases. We also find the maximum first natural frequency nondimensional position for the concentrated mass.

The air squeeze film damping effect on the dynamic responses of clamped micro- electromechanical resonators is investigated in this study. A dynamic model for a clamped micro- electromechanical resonator with the damping consideration is derived using Lagrange’s equation. The corresponding resonator eigen solutions are formulated and solved by employing the assumed-mode method. The effect of different parameters; i.e. the resonator size, ambient temperature and pressure on the squeeze film damping characteristics were simulated and investigated. The results indicate that the squeeze film damping effect may significantly affect the dynamic responses of micro-scale electromechanical resonator.

The traditional approach of using free vibration modes in the assumed mode method often leads to an extremely slow convergence rate, especially when discete interactive forces are involved. By introducing a number of forced modes, significant improvements can be achieved. These forced modes are intrinsic to the structure and the spatial distribution of forces. The motion of the structure can be described exactly by these forced modes and a few free vibration modes provided that certain conditions are satisfied. The forced modes can be viewed as an extension of static modes. The development of a forced mode formulation is outlined and a numerical example is presented.

AbstractThis paper combines the nonlinear Udwadia-Kalaba control approach with the Assumed Mode Method to model flexible structures and derives an attitude controller for a spacecraft. The study case of this paper is a satellite with four flexible cantilever beams attached to a rigid central hub. Two main topics are covered in this paper. The first one is the formulation of the equation of motion and the second one is the nonlinear controller design. The combination of these two techniques is able to provide a controller that damps the vibration of a flexible structure while achieving the desired rigid-motion state.

The improved equations of motion for a friction-engaged brake system have been newly derived on the basis of the assumed mode method and frictional damping. The equations of motion with a finite element model were constructed by a set of vibration modes found from FE modal analysis on all system components. Consequently, the modal information of system components are combined with equations of motion derived from the analytical model. Numerical analysis showed the mode which was unstable in an undamped case became stable in a damped case.
