Abstract This paper presents an exact solution for the transverse response of an axially moving string under general boundary conditions. The response solution is derived in the frequency domain and interpreted in terms of wave propagation functions. The response in the time domain involves only several convolution integrals which can easily be obtained for many physical boundary conditions. The transient response of the translating string with a spring or a dashpot at a boundary is presented.

In this paper, we present an exact solution for the linear, transverse response of an axially moving string with general boundary conditions. The solution is derived in the frequency domain and interpreted in terms of wave propagation functions. The boundary effects are included by the use of compliance functions at the boundaries. The response in the time domain involves only several convolution integrals which can easily be obtained for many physical boundary conditions. A comparison of this method with an existing solution method shows that this method requires much less computation time. The transient response of the translating string with a spring or a dashpot at a boundary is presented. It is shown that complete wave absorption occurs at a boundary when that boundary has a dashpot with damping coefficient equal to the propagation speed of the reflected wave.

Abstract The active wave control of the linear, axially moving string with general boundary conditions is presented in this paper. Considerations of general boundary conditions are important from both practical and experimental viewpoints. The active control law is established by employing the idea of wave cancellation. An exact, closed-form expression for the transverse response of the controlled system, consisting of the flexible structure, the wave controller, and the sensing and actuation devices, is derived in the frequency domain. Two actuation forces, one upstream and one downstream of an excitation force, are applied. The proposed control law shows that all modes of the string are controlled and the vibration in the regions upstream and downstream of the control forces can be cancelled. However, these results are based on ideal conditions and the assumption of zero initial conditions at the non-fixed boundaries. Effects of non-zero boundary motions at the instant of application of the control forces are examined and the control is shown to be effective under these conditions. The stability and robustness of the control forces are improved by the introduction of a stabilization coefficient in the control law. The effectiveness, robustness and stability of the control forces are demonstrated by simulations and verified by experiments on axially moving belt drive and chain drive systems.

This paper presents a different approach to the work developed by Cruz and Sarmento (2005), where the same problem was studied in the frequency domain. It concerns the same sphere, connected to the seabed by a tension line (single point moored), that oscillates with respect to the vertical direction in the plane of wave propagation. The pulsating nature of the sphere is the basic physical phenomenon that allows the use of this model as a simulation of a floating wave energy converter. The hydrodynamic coefficients and diffraction forces presented in Linton (1991) and Lopes and Sarmento (2002) for a submerged sphere are used. The equation of motion in the angular direction is solved in the time domain without any assumption about its output, allowing comparisons with the previously obtained results.

Problem statement. The accuracy and convergence of calculations for solving problems of electrodynamics by the finite difference method in the time domain significantly depends on the correct choice of parameters and the correct setting of the absorbing boundary conditions (ABC). Two main types of absorbing boundary conditions are known: Mur ABC; Beranger ABC. It is believed that the Mur ABC is less effective at absorbing spherical waves than the Beranger ABC, but they do not require the introduction of additional parameters (the so-called "Beranger fields"), which simplifies the implementation of program code and saves computer RAM. Calculations have shown that the efficiency of the Mur ABC will depend on their thickness. On the one hand, an increase in the thickness of the ABC layers will lead to an increase in the accuracy of calculations, on the other hand, to an increase in the size of the calculation area and, as a result, an increase in RAM. The problem arises of determining the criterion for evaluating the efficiency of ABC to determine their optimal thickness. Goal. Identification of new factors that make it possible to use the Mur ABC as efficiently as the Beranger ABC, while significantly saving computer resources. Result. The expressions for the ABC are presented, taking into account the interaction of all components of the electromagnetic field within a single cell of the FDTD. Calculations of the reflection coefficient – a criterion for evaluating the efficiency of the ABC, are presented. Practical significance. Calculations are presented that allow automating the selection of ABC parameters for their stable operation in solving electrodynamic problems.

On the basis of fractional viscoelasticity, the size-dependent free-vibration response of viscoelastic carbon nanotubes conveying fluid and resting on viscoelastic foundation is studied in this article. To this end, a nonlocal Timoshenko beam model is developed in the context of fractional calculus. Hamilton’s principle is applied in order to obtain the fractional governing equations including nanoscale effects. The Kelvin–Voigt viscoelastic model is also used for the constitutive equations. The free-vibration problem is solved using two methods. In the first method, which is limited to the simply supported boundary conditions, the Galerkin technique is employed for discretizing the spatial variables and reducing the governing equations to a set of ordinary differential equations on the time domain. Then, the Duffing-type time-dependent equations including fractional derivatives are solved via fractional integrator transfer functions. In the second method, which can be utilized for carbon nanotubes with different types of boundary conditions, the generalized differential quadrature technique is used for discretizing the governing equations on spatial grids, whereas the finite difference technique is used on the time domain. In the results, the influences of nonlocality, geometrical parameters, fractional derivative orders, viscoelastic foundation, and fluid flow velocity on the time responses of carbon nanotubes are analyzed.

In recent years the development of free field radiation conditions in the time domain has become a topic of intensive research. Perfectly matched layer (PML) approaches for the frequency domain are well known. In the time domain, on the other hand, they suffer in many cases from highly increased complexity and instabilities. In this paper, we introduce a PML for the conservation equations of linear acoustics. The used formulation requires three auxiliary variables in 3D and circumvents thereby convolution integrals and higher order time derivatives. Furthermore, we prove the weak stability of the proposed formulation and show their good absorption properties by means of numerical examples.
