Truncated Conical Shell

In aerospace structures, vehicles, civil structures, conical shells are used to support a part or connect different parts, such as spacecraft adaptors, fixtures of machine tools. This type of structures has the possibility of vibration isolation. The final purpose of the on-going research is to isolate the supported part from the vibration transferred from the other end. As a phase of the research, the present paper emphasizes on the distributed sensing signals and modal voltages of the truncated conical shell. To simulate free vibrations of supported part, one end of the truncated conical shell is clamped and the other end is free. The piezoelectric patches are attached on top skin of the shell along diagonal helical line. This paper presents an analytical procedure of sensing of truncated conical shell supporting a mass. The displacement functions satisfying the special boundary conditions are given. Based on the thin-shell theory and Donnel-Mushtari-Valsov theory, sensing equations of the piezoelectric stripes are derived. The sensing signals consist of four components, i.e. sensing signals due to meridional and circular membrane strains, meridional and circular bending strains. These components are studied separately to show their distributions to the sensing signals. Finally, a case study is carried out using a sample truncated conical shell model with laminated piezoelectric stripes.

Truncated Conical Shell

In this paper, the integro-differential equations of natural oscillations of a viscoelastic ribbed truncated conical shell are obtained based on the Lagrange variational equation. The general research methodology is based on the variational principles of mechanics and variational methods. Geometrically nonlinear mathematical models of the deformation of ribbed conical shells are obtained, considering such factors as the discrete introduction of edges. Based on the finite element method, a method for solving and an algorithm for the equations of natural oscillations of a viscoelastic ribbed truncated conical shell with articulated and freely supported edges is developed. The problem is reduced to solving homogeneous algebraic equations with complex coefficients of large order. For a solution to exist, the main determinant of a system of algebraic equations must be zero. From this condition, we obtain a frequency equation with complex output parameters. The study of natural vibrations of viscoelastic panels of truncated conical shells is carried out, and some characteristic features are revealed. The complex roots of the frequency equation are determined by the Muller method. At each iteration of the Muller method, the Gauss method is used with the main element selection. As the number of edges increases, the real and imaginary parts of the eigenfrequencies increase, respectively.

The free vibrations of the stiffened hollow conical shells with different variable thickness distribution modes are investigated in detail in the context of Donnel-Mushtari conical shell theory. Two sets of boundary conditions have been considered. The algebraic energy equations of the conical shell and the stiffeners are established separately. The Rayleigh-Ritz method is used to equate maximum strain energy to maximum kinetic energy which leads to a standard linear eigenvalue problem. Numerical results are presented graphically for different geometric parameters. The parametric study reveals the characteristic behavior which is useful in selecting the shell thickness distribution modes and the stiffener type. The comparison between the present results and those of finite element method shows that the present results agree well with those of finite element method.

Conventional sensors, such as proximeters and accelerometers, are add-on devices usually adding additional weights to structures and machines. Health monitoring of flexible structures by electroactive smart materials has been investigated over the years. Thin-film piezoelectric material, e.g., polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymeric material, is a lightweight and dynamic sensitive material appearing to be a perfect candidate in monitoring structure’s dynamic state and health status of flexible shell structures with complex geometries. The complexity of shell structures has thwarted the progress in studying the distributed sensing of shell structures. Linear distributed sensing of various structures have been studied, like beam, plate, cylindrical shell, conical shell, spherical shell, paraboloidal shell and toroidal shell. However, distributed sensing control of nonlinear shell structures has not been carried out rigorously. This study is to present the microscopic signals, modal voltages and distributed micro-sensing components of truncated nonlinear conical shells laminated with distributed infinitesimal piezoelectric neurons. Signal generation of distributed neuron sensors laminated on conical shells is defined first. The dynamic signal of truncated nonlinear conical shell consists of microscopic linear and nonlinear membrane strain components and linear bending strain component based on the von Karman geometric nonlinearity. Micro-signals, modal voltages and distributed sensing components of two different truncated nonlinear conical shells are investigated and their sensitivities discussed.

Truncated Conical Shell

Based on the first-order shear deformation theory, this paper focuses on the free vibration behavior of two-dimensional functionally graded material truncated conical shells resting on Winkler–Pasternak foundations. The materials are assumed to be isotropic and inhomogeneous in the length and thickness directions of truncated conical shell. The material properties of the truncated conical shell are varied in these directions according to power law functions. The derived governing equations are solved using differential quadrature method. Convergence of this method is checked and the fast rate of convergence is observed. The primary results of this study are obtained for ( SS− SL), ( CS− CL), and ( CS− SL) boundary conditions and compared with those available in the literatures. Furthermore, effects of geometrical parameters, material power indexes, mechanical boundary conditions, Winkler and Pasternak foundation moduli on the nondimensional frequency parameters of the two-dimensional functionally graded material truncated conical shell are studied.

Isolation Performance

Conical shells have advantages such as light weight, higher stiffness and strength, its stiffness ratio between axial and transverse directions can be easily adjusted by changing its apex angle. Thus conical shell can be utilized as an isolator to protect precision payloads and equipment from severe dynamic loads. In this study, vibration isolation performance of a conical shell isolator laminated with piezoelectric actuators is investigated. The conical shell isolator is manufactured from epoxy resin. The payload is at the minor of the isolator. The major end of the isolator is fixed at a flange installed on a shaker. Macro fiber composite (MFC) is used as actuator, which is laminated on the outer surface of the conical isolator. The sensing signals from sensors on the isolator is transferred to a dSPACE system and the control voltage is transferred to a power amplifier and then to the MFC actuator. The control voltage is calculated in the Matlab/Simulink environment. Both negative velocity feedback and optimal controllers are employed in the active vibration control. The payloads are simplified to be a rigid cylinder, and two payloads with different weight are investigated in the study. Experimental results show that the proposed conical shell isolator is effective for vibration isolation of payloads, and vibration amplitude of the payload can be significantly reduced.

Governing equations of motion are presented for arbitrarily laminated fiber reinforced composite material truncated conical shell in which each layer is permitted an arbitrary fixed fiber orientation. Each layer has been considered to be of a specially orthotropic material with its directional elastic properties depending on the fiber orientation. Extension, bending, in-plane shear and transverse shear in all the layers have been considered and inertia effects due to transverse, meridional and rotary motions are taken into account. Convenient trigonometric series are used as solution functions in Galerkin's method to reduce the governing equations to sets of matrix equations. The correspondence principle of linear viscoelasticity has been used for evaluating the damping effectiveness of the shell. Computer programs have been developed for axisymmetric and antisymmetric vibrations of multi-layered conical shells with simply supported edges. The influence of apex angle upon the resonance frequencies and the associated system loss factors of laminated FRP conical shells is investigated.
