In ship and aircraft turbine rotors, the rotating mass unbalance and the different movements of the rotor base are among the main causes of vibrations in bending. The goal of this paper is to investigate the dynamic behavior of an on-board rotor under rigid base excitations. The modeling takes into consideration six types of base deterministic motions (rotations and translations) when the kinetic and strain energies in addition to the virtual work of the rotating flexible rotor components are computed. The finite element method is used in the rotor modeling by employing the Timoshenko beam theory. The proposed on-board rotor model takes into account the rotary inertia, the gyroscopic inertia, the shear deformation of shaft as well as the geometric asymmetry of shaft and/or rigid disk. The Lagrange’s equations are applied to establish the differential equations of the rotor in bending with respect to the rigid base which represents a noninertial reference frame. The linear equations of motion display periodic parametric coefficients due to the asymmetry of the rotor and time-varying parametric coefficients due to the base rotational motions. In the proposed applications, the rotor mounted on rigid/elastic bearings is excited by a rotating mass unbalance associated with sinusoidal vibrations of the rigid base. The dynamic behavior of the rotor is analyzed by means of orbits of the rotor as well as fast Fourier transforms (FFTs).

AbstractThis study investigates the effects of disk position nonlinearities on the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a rotating flexible shaft-disk system. Displacement of the disk on the shaft causes certain nonlinear terms which appears in the equations of motion, which can in turn affect the dynamic behavior of the system. The system is modeled as a continuous shaft with a rigid disk in different locations. Also, the disk gyroscopic moment is considered. The partial differential equations of motion are extracted under the Rayleigh beam theory. The assumed modes method is used to discretize partial differential equations and the resulting equations are solved via numerical methods. The analytical methods used in this work are inclusive of time series, phase plane portrait, power spectrum, Poincaré map, bifurcation diagrams, and Lyapunov exponents. The effect of disk nonlinearities is studied for some disk positions. The results confirm that when the disk is located at mid-span of the shaft, only the regular motion (period one) is observed. However, periodic, sub-harmonic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic states can be observed for situations in which the disk is located at places other than the middle of the shaft. The results show nonlinear effects are negligible in some cases.

The dynamical analysis of a rotating thin-walled composite shaft with internal damping is carried out analytically. The equations of motion are derived using the thin-walled composite beam theory and the principle of virtual work. The internal damping of shafts is introduced by adopting the multiscale damping analysis method. Galerkin’s method is used to discretize and solve the governing equations. Numerical study shows the effect of design parameters on the natural frequencies, critical rotating speeds, and instability thresholds of shafts.

The intrinsic beam theory, as one of the exact beam formulas, is quite suitable to describe large deformation of the flexible curved beam and has been widely used in many engineering applications. Owing to the advantages of the intrinsic beam theory, the resulted equations are expressed in first-order partial differential form with second-order nonlinear terms. In order to solve the intrinsic beam equations in a relative simple way, in this paper, the point interpolation meshless method was employed to obtain the discretization equations of motion. Different from those equations by using the finite element method, only the differential of the shape functions are needed to form the final discrete equations. Thus, the present method does not need integration process for all elements during each time step. The proposed method has been demonstrated by a numerical example, and results show that this method is highly efficient in treating this type of problem with good accuracy.

The dynamic stability behavior of a cantilever shaft-disk system subjected to axial periodic forces varying with time is studied by the finite element method. The equations of motion for such a system are formulated using deformation shape functions developed from Timoshenko beam theory. The effects of translational and rotatory inertia, gyroscopic moment, bending and shear deformation are included in the mathematical model. Numerical results show that the effect of the gyroscopic term is to shift the boundaries of the regions of dynamic instability outwardly and, therefore, the sizes of these regions are enlarged as the rotational speed increases.

Curved beam-type structures have many applications in engineering area. Due to the initial curvature of the central line, it is complicated to develop and solve the equations of motion by taking into account the extensibility of the curve axis and the influences of the shear deformation and the rotary inertia. In this study the finite element method is utilized to study the curved beam with arbitrary geometry. The curved beam is modeled using the Timoshenko beam theory and the circular ring model. The governing equation of motion is derived using the Extended-Hamilton principle and numerically solved by the finite element method. A parametric sensitive study for the natural frequencies has been performed and compared with those reported in the literature in order to demonstrate the accuracy of the analysis.

Abstract The stability behavior of a cantilevered shaft, rotating at a constant speed and subjected to a follower force at the free end, is studied by the finite element method. The equations of motion for such a gyroscopic system are formulated by using deformation shape functions developed from Timoshenko beam theory. The effects of translational and rotatory inertia, gyroscopic moments, bending and shear deformations are included. In order to determine the critical load of the present nonconservative system more quickly and efficiently, a simple and direct method that utilizes the eigenvalue sensitivity with respect to the follower force is introduced. The numerical results show that for the present nonconservative system, the onset of flutter instability occurs when the first and second backward whirl speeds are coincident. And also, due to the effect of the gyroscopic moments, the critical flutter load decreases as the rotational speed increases.

Abstract An investigation into the dynamic behavior of a bridge with simply supported boundary conditions, carrying a moving vehicle, is performed. The vehicle has been modelled as a two degree of freedom lumped-parameter system travelling at a uniform speed. Furthermore, the bridge is assumed to obey the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory of vibration. This analysis may well be applied to a beam with different boundary conditions, but the computer simulation results given in this paper are set for only the case of freely hinged ends. Numerical solutions for the derived differential equations of motion are obtained and their close agreement, in some extreme cases, with those reported earlier by the authors are observed. Finally, the effect of speed on the maximum dynamic deflection of bridge is shown to be of much importance and hence an estimation for the critical speed of the vehicle is presented.

A hybrid numerical method in which the finite element method and the method of Fourier transforms are combined is proposed for computing the transient waves in anisotropic laminated plates excited by impact loads. The anisotropic laminated plate is divided into N plate elements, and the principle of virtual work is used to develop approximate dynamic equilibrium equations for three- and two-dimensional problems. The displacement response is determined by employing the Fourier transformation and the modal analysis. This hybrid numerical method is straightforward and easy to use.

The equations of motion of a flexible rotating shaft have been typically derived by introducing gyroscopic moments, in an inconsistent manner, as generalized work terms in a Lagrangian formulation or as external moments in a Newtonian approach. This paper presents the consistent derivation of a set of governing differential equations describing the flexural vibration in two orthogonal planes and the torsional vibration of a straight rotating shaft with dissimilar lateral principal moments of inertia and subject to a constant compressive axial load. The coupling between flexural and torsional vibration due to mass eccentricity is not considered. In addition, a new approach for calculating correctly the effect of an axial load for a Timoshenko beam is presented based on the change in length of the centroidal line. It is found that the use of either a floating frame approach with the small strain assumption or a finite strain beam theory is necessary to obtain a consistent derivation of the terms corresponding to gyroscopic moments in the equations of motion. However, the virtual work of an axial load through the geometric shortening appears consistently in the formulation only when using a finite strain beam theory.

This paper presents a systematic methodology for solving the inverse dynamics of a Stewart-Gough manipulator. Based on the principle of virtual work and the concept of link Jacobian matrices, a methodology for deriving the dynamical equations of motion is developed. It is shown that the dynamics of the manipulator can be reduced to solving a system of six linear equations in six unknowns. A computational algorithm for solving the inverse dynamics of the manipulator is developed and several trajectories of the moving platform are simulated. [S1050-0472(00)00401-3]
