In order to analyze turbine blades vibration caused by flutter, it is necessary to understand both aerodynamic damping and structural damping of high vibration stress. Flutter Vibration mode occurring in rated speed is non-synchronous mode. For measuring non-synchronous mode damping ratio of turbine blades, AC-type electromagnet which can generate high frequency excitation force was developed. Damping ratio characteristics of non-synchronous mode of nodal diameter 12,4 was measured in rotational test. For comparison, synchronous mode of nodal diameter 4 was measured, too. It was concluded as follows. (1) It is possible to excite non-synchronous mode by high frequency excitation electromagnet and calculate damping ratio from measurement resonance curve. (2) Damping ratio of non-synchronous mode ND12,4 was increased by increasing the excitation force. Synchronous mode ND4 is also a similar trend. (3) Nodal diameter 4 damping ratio of non-synchronous mode (Resonant speed=100%) was lower than synchronous mode (Resonant speed=75%).

Fokker Planck

The Fokker–Planck equation accurately describes AC magnetization dynamics of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). However, the model for describing AC magnetization dynamics of MNPs based on Fokker-Planck equation is very complicated and the numerical calculation of Fokker-Planck function is time consuming. In the stable stage of AC magnetization response, there are differences in the harmonic phase and amplitude between the stable magnetization response of MNPs described by Langevin and Fokker–Planck equation. Therefore, we proposed an empirical model for AC magnetization harmonics to compensate the attenuation of harmonics amplitude induced by a high frequency excitation field. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed model accurately describes the AC M–H curve. Moreover, we propose a harmonic amplitude–temperature model of a magnetic nanoparticle thermometer (MNPT) in a high-frequency excitation field. The simulation results show that the temperature error is less than 0.008 K in the temperature range 310–320 K. The proposed empirical model is expected to help improve MNPT performance.

In this paper, a two-dimensional numerical model is developed to investigate the effect of rail pad stiffness on the wheel/rail force in a slab track with harmonic irregularity. The model consists of a vehicle, nonlinear Hertz spring, rail, rail pad, concrete slab, resilient layer, concrete base, and subgrade. The rail is simulated using the Timoshenko beam element for considering the effects of high-frequency excitation produced by short-wave irregularity. The results obtained from the model are compared with those available in the literature and from the field to prove the validity of the model. Through a parametric study, the effect of variations in rail pad stiffness, vehicle speed, and harmonic irregularity on the wheel/rail force is investigated. For the slab track without any irregularity, the wheel/rail force is at maximum when the vehicle speed reaches the critical speed. As the rail pad stiffness increases, the critical speed increases. When the amplitude of irregularity is high, wheel jumping phenomenon may occur. In this situation, as the vehicle speed and rail pad stiffness are increased, the dynamic wheel/rail force is increased. In the low-frequency range, the wheel/rail force increases as the rail pad stiffness increases. In the high-frequency range, the wheel/rail force increases as the rail pad stiffness is decreased.

Electromagnetic Damper

The passive electromagnetic damper was commonly simplified into the linear viscous model in numerical analysis, while this simplification may produce large error when the damper inductance is obvious. In this article, an optimal passive electromagnetic damper with good performance and economy characteristic is proposed by parameter optimization, where the damping density is set as the optimization objective. The hysteresis behavior of the passive electromagnetic damper is verified, and by neglecting the inductance effect, the passive electromagnetic damper can be simplified into the linear viscous model in some cases, but actually the inductance effect is obvious under the high-frequency excitation. Subsequently, the effect of inductance on seismic performance of building damper system under the near-fault earthquake is investigated by comparing the simplified linear viscous model and the accurate passive electromagnetic model. The passive electromagnetic damper was supplemented in a 9-story building, and the analysis of the accurate passive electromagnetic model was carried out by the co-simulation of MATLAB and OpenSees based on the client–server technology. It concludes that the inductance effect is obvious and causes large error when the building damper system is subjected to the near-fault earthquake, and the energy dissipation performance described by the linear viscous model is overestimated.

The purpose of this study was to develop a model of the dynamic behavior of a hydraulic vehicle double-tube shock absorber. The model accounts for the effects of compressibility, valve stiction, inertia, etc. and can be suitable for use in the analyses on flow-induced pressure fluctuations in the device. The author highlights all major variables to influence the output of the shock absorber, and then proceeds by performing a series of simulations using the developed model. The model is demonstrated to operate well in the large amplitude and low frequency range as well as the small amplitude and high frequency excitation operation regimes. The results are presented in the form of time histories of pressures in each fluid volume of the damper, flow rates through the valves, piston rod acceleration and force. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) graphs are presented, too, in order to identify major components of the pressure fluctuation phenomena in frequency domain.
