In this study, the transient analysis of a cable unwinding from a cylindrical spool package is first studied and compared to experiment. Then, a steady-state solution is also compared to transient solution. Cables are assumed to be withdrawn with a constant velocity through a fixed point which is located along the axis of the package. When the cable is flown out of the package, several dynamic forces, such as inertial force, Coriolis force, centrifugal force, tensile force, and fluid-resistance force are acting on the cable. Consequently, the cable becomes to undergo very nonlinear and complex unwinding behavior which is called unwinding balloon. In this paper, to prevent the problems during unwinding such as tangling or cutting, unwinding behaviors of cables in transient state were derived and analyzed. First of all, the governing equations of motion of cables unwinding from a cylindrical spool package were systematically derived using the extended Hamilton’s principles of an open system in which mass is transported at each boundary. And the modified finite difference methods are suggested to solve the derived nonlinear partial differential equations. Time responses of unwinding cables are calculated using Newmark time integration methods. The transient solution is compared to physical experiment, and then the steady-state solution is compared to transient solution.

Particular Solution

The response of a simply supported semi-infinite Timoshenko beam on an elastic foundation to a moving step load is determined. The response is found from summing the solutions to two mutually complementary sets of governing equations. The first solution is a particular solution to the forced equations of motion. The second solution is a solution to a set of homogeneous equations of motion and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions so formulated as to satisfy the initial and boundary conditions of the actual problem when the two solutions are summed. As a particular solution, the steady-state solution is used which is the motion that would appear stationary to an observer traveling with the load. Steady-state solutions are developed in Part 1 of this article for all load speeds greater than zero. It is shown that a steady-state solution which is identically zero ahead of the load front exists at every load speed, in the sense of generalized functions, including the critical speeds when the load travels at the minimum phase velocity of propagating harmonic waves and the sonic speeds. The solution to the homogeneous equations of motion is developed in Part 2 where the two solutions in question are summed and numerical results are presented as well.

The transient response of a simply supported semi-infinite Timoshenko beam on an elastic foundation to a moving step load is determined. The response is found from summing the solutions to two mutually complementary sets of governing equations. The first solution is a particular solution to the forced equations of motion. The second solution is a solution to a set of homogeneous equations of motion and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions so formulated as to satisfy the initial and boundary conditions of the actual problem when the two solutions are summed. As a particular solution, the steady-state solution is used which is the motion that would appear stationary to an observer traveling with the load. Steady-state solutions were developed in Part 1 of this article for all load speeds greater than zero. The solution to the homogeneous equations of motion is developed here in Part 2. It is shown that the latter solution can be obtained by numerical integration using the method of characteristics. Particular attention is given to the cases when the load travels at the critical speeds consisting of the minimum phase velocity of propagating harmonic waves and the sonic speeds. It is shown that the solution to the homogeneous equations combines with the steady-state solution in such a manner that the beam displacements are continuous and bounded for all finite times at all load speeds including the critical speeds. Numerical results are presented for the critical load speed cases.

Axial Coordinate

An infinitely long, circular, cylindrical shell is submerged in an acoustic medium and subjected to a plane, axially propagating step wave. The fluid-shell interaction is approximated by neglecting fluid motions in the axial direction, thereby assuming that cylindrical waves radiate away from the shell independently of the axial coordinate. Rotatory inertia and transverse shear deformations are included in the shell equations of motion, and a steady-state solution is obtained by combining the independent variables, time and the axial coordinate, through a transformation that measures the shell response from the advancing wave front. Results from the steady-state solution for the case of steel shells submerged in water are presented using both the Timoshenko-type shell theory and the bending shell theory. It is shown that previous solutions, which assumed plane waves radiated away from the vibrating shell, overestimated the dumping effect of the fluid, and that the inclusion of transverse shear deformations and rotatory inertia have an effect on the response ahead of the wave front.

Load flow studies are carried out in order to find a steady state solution of a power system network. It is done to continuously monitor the system and decide upon future expansion of the system. The parameters of the system monitored are voltage magnitude, voltage angle, active and reactive power. This paper presents techniques used in order to obtain such parameters for a standard IEEE – 30 bus and IEEE-57 bus network and makes a comparison into the differences with regard to computational time and effectiveness of each solver
