Quadratic And Cubic Nonlinearities

This paper proposes an accuracy improvement of the method of multiple scales (MMSs) for nonlinear vibration analyses of continuous systems with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. As an example, we treat a shallow suspended cable subjected to a harmonic excitation, and investigate the primary resonance of the th in-plane mode () in which and are the driving and natural frequencies, respectively. The application of Galerkin's procedure to the equation of motion yields nonlinear ordinary differential equations with quadratic and cubic nonlinear terms. The steady-state responses are obtained by using the discretization approach of the MMS in which the definition of the detuning parameter, expressing the relationship between the natural frequency and the driving frequency, is changed in an attempt to improve the accuracy of the solutions. The validity of the solutions is discussed by comparing them with solutions of the direct approach of the MMS and the finite difference method.

Quadratic And Cubic Nonlinearities

We use two approaches to determine the nonlinear modes and natural frequencies of a simply supported Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on an elastic foundation with distributed quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. In the first approach, we use the method of multiple scales to treat the governing partial-differential equation and boundary conditions directly. In the second approach, we use a Galerkin procedure to discretize the system and then determine the normal modes from the discretized equations by using the method of multiple scales and the invariant manifold approach. Whereas one- and two-mode discretizations produce erroneous results for continuous systems with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities, all methods, in the present case, produce the same results because the discretization is carried out by using a complete set of basis functions that satisfy the boundary conditions.

This paper deals with electrostatically actuated Carbon NanoTubes (CNT) cantilevers for bio-sensing applications. There are three kinds of forces acting on the CNT cantilever: electrostatic, elastostatic, and van der Waals. The van der Waals forces are significant for values of 50 nm or lower of the gap between the CNT and the ground plate. As both forces electrostatic and van der Waals are nonlinear, and the CNT electrostatic actuation is given by AC voltage, the CNT dynamics is nonlinear parametric. The method of multiple scales is used to investigate the system under soft excitations and/or weakly nonlinearities. The frequency-amplitude and frequency-phase behavior are found in the case of primary resonance. The CNT bio-sensor is to be used for mass detection applications.

On base of the electro-magneto-elastic theory and the theory of the bending vibration of the electric beam, nonlinear vibration equation of current-carrying beam subjected to thermal-magneto-elasticity field is studied. The Lorentz force and thermal force on the beam are derived. According to the method of multiple scales for nonlinear vibrations the approximation solution of the primary resonance of the system is obtained. Numerical analysis results show that the amplitude changed with the system parameters. With the decrease of magnetic intensity, the amplitude increases rapidly. The response curve occurs bending phenomenon and soft features is increased gradually. Increasing current, the amplitudes increase. With the decrease of temperature, the peak of response curves decrease. With the increase of temperature, natural frequency decreased. It is useful in practical engineering.

Nonlinear vibration of a simply-supported Euler-Bernoulli microbeam with fractional Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic model subjected to harmonic excitation is investigated in this paper. For small scale effects the modified strain gradient theory is used. For take into account geometric nonlinearities the Von karman theory is applied. Beam equations are derived from Hamilton principle and the Galerkin method is used to convert fractional partial differential equations into fractional ordinary differential equations. Problem is solved by using the method of multiple scales and amplitude-frequency equations are obtained for primary, super-harmonic and sub-harmonic resonance. Effects of force amplitude, fractional parameters and nonlinearity on the frequency responses for primary, super-harmonic and sub-harmonic resonance are investigated. Finally results are compared with ordinary Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic model.

Electrostatically Actuated

This paper investigates the voltage-amplitude response of soft AC electrostatically actuated M/NEMS clamped circular plates. AC frequency is near half natural frequency of the plate. This results in primary resonance. The system is analytically modeled using the Method of Multiple Scales (MMS). The system is assumed weakly nonlinear. The behavior of the system including pull-in instability as the AC voltage is swept up and down while the excitation frequency is constant is reported. The effects of detuning frequency, damping, Casimir force, and van der Waals force are reported as well.

We use several methods to study the nonlinear modes of one-dimensional continuous systems with cubic inertia and geometric nonlinearities. Invariant manifold and perturbation methods applied to the discretized system and the method of multiple scales applied to the partial-differential equation and boundary conditions are discussed and their equivalence is demonstrated. The method of multiple scales is then applied directly to the partial-differential equation and boundary conditions governing several nonlinear beam problems.

Mass System

The nonlinear response of a simply supported beam with an attached spring-mass system to a primary resonance is investigated, taking into account the effects of beam midplane stretching and damping. The spring-mass system has also a cubic nonlinearity. The response is found by using two different perturbation approaches. In the first approach, the method of multiple scales is applied directly to the nonlinear partial differential equations and boundary conditions. In the second approach, the Lagrangian is averaged over the fast time scale, and then the equations governing the modulation of the amplitude and phase are obtained as the Euler-Lagrange equations of the averaged Lagrangian. It is shown that the frequency-response and force-response curves depend on the midplane stretching and the parameters of the spring-mass system. The relative importance of these effects depends on the parameters and location of the spring-mass system.
