A lot of research on the properties of a panel-enclosure coupled system which consists of an enclosure with a simply supported flexible wall was conducted. However, an enclosure with clamped flexible walls is commonly encountered. The properties of a panel-enclosure system, with one clamped flexible wall, are different from those of a simply supported one, and there are only a few studies on it. Thus, this paper is dedicated to the study of the effect of structural-acoustic coupling on the properties of a panel-enclosure system, which consists of an enclosure with a clamped panel. The resonance frequencies and the decay times of the coupled system are obtained using the classical modal coupling theory. The effects of enclosure and its flexible boundary on the resonance frequencies and the modal decay times of the coupled system are then analyzed. It is shown that, when panel thickness is changed, coupling strength is determined by the difference between the resonance frequencies of the panel and the enclosure modes. However, for the variation of enclosure depth, the factor which determines the coupling strength between panel and enclosure modes is the enclosure depth or the difference between their resonance frequencies.

The sound field characteristics in a trapezoidal enclosure surrounded by a flexible wall, which is adjacent to the tilted one, are investigated and compared with the case of a rectangular enclosure. The acoustic modes of trapezoidal enclosure are obtained by the coupling of the modes of rectangular enclosure that bounds it. The coupling system model is then built between trapezoidal enclosure modes and flexible wall modes using modal coupling theory. Based on the coupled system model, the effect of flexible wall modal density on the resonance frequencies and the decay times of coupled system are analyzed. Compared with the case of rectangular enclosure, the variation of the resonance frequency and the decay time of enclosure-controlled system mode is determined by its mode indices and tilted wall location when the panel modal density is changed. When the modal indices of trapezoidal sound field in the two directions unparallel to the tilted wall are equal to zero simultaneously, the effect of inclination angle on the resonance frequencies and decay times of these coupled system modes can be neglected. Otherwise, the coupling system modes behaviors are changed with the elevation angle. In addition, the coupling selection between the modes of trapezoidal enclosure and flexible wall is discussed in detail.

The coupled model between trapezoidal cavity and its clamped flexible wall is developed using classical modal coupling theory. Based on the coupled model, the resonance frequencies of coupled system are obtained and compared with the corresponding uncoupled one. Meanwhile, the reason for the variation of resonance frequencies of coupled system modes is analyzed in detail. Then, the response of coupled system is investigated using the acoustic potential energy in the cavity and panel vibration kinetic energy when it is excited by an incident plane wave outside of the cavity. Coupling coefficient between trapezoidal cavity and its clamped flexible wall is proposed to assess the modal matching degree between them. It is shown that the coupling selection is not satisfied except in the axis direction which is parallel to the inclined wall. In addition, a rectangular cavity with a clamped flexible wall is also considered and compared with that of the trapezoidal one.

This study addresses the frequency–amplitude relationship of a nonlinear symmetric panel absorber mounted on a flexible wall. In many structural–acoustic works, only one flexible panel is considered in their models with symmetric configuration. There are very limited research investigations that focus on two flexible panels coupled with a cavity, particularly for nonlinear structural–acoustic problems. In practice, panel absorbers with symmetric configurations are common and usually mounted on a flexible wall. Thus, it should not be assumed that the wall is rigid. This study is the first work employing the weighted residual elliptic integral method for solving this problem, which involves the nonlinear multi-mode governing equations of two flexible panels coupled with a cavity. The reason for adopting the proposed solution method is that fewer nonlinear algebraic equations are generated. The results obtained from the proposed method and finite element method agree reasonably well with each other. The effects of some parameters such as vibration amplitude, cavity depth and thickness ratio, etc. are also investigated.

Applying invariant manifold theorem, we study the existence of generalized synchronization of a coupled system, with local systems being different sine circle maps. We specify a range of parameters for which the coupled system achieves generalized synchronization. We also investigate the relation between generalized synchronization, predictability and equivalence of dynamical systems. If the parameters are restricted in the specified range, then all the subsystems are topologically equivalent, and each subsystem is predictable from any other subsystem. Moreover, these subsystems are frequency locked even if the frequencies are greatly different in the absence of coupling. If the local systems are identical without coupling, then the widths of the phase-locked intervals of the coupled system are the same as those of the individual map and are independent of the coupling strength.

We investigate the galvanic coupling schemes of superconducting flux qubits. From the fundamental boundary conditions, we obtain the effective potential of the coupled system of two or three flux qubits to provide the exact Lagrangian of the system. While usually the two-qubit gate has been investigated approximately, in this study we derive the exact inductive coupling strength between two flux qubits coupled directly and coupled through a connecting central loop. We observe that the inductive coupling strength needs to be included exactly to satisfy the criteria of fault-tolerant quantum computing.

The 35Cl, 121Sb and 123Sb resonance frequencies for seventeen tetrachloro(carboxylato)antimony V compounds, RCO2SbCl4, are reported. The results confirm the difference in the effects of the substituent on the equatorial chlorine atoms and the axial chlorine atoms of the SbCl4 group, previously remarked in Parts I and II of this series, and this effect has been put on a more quantitative basis by correlating the observed frequencies with the pK’s of the corresponding acids.The compounds with R = isopropyl and R = cyclopropyl both show a phase change in the region of 140 K which may correspond to reorientation of the substituent about the R - CO2 axis.

AbstractElectron-phonon matrix elements, phonon linewidths and mode coupling strengths are being calculated for La2-xMxCuO4 (M-divalent cation, for paramagnetic x-0.0 and for x-0.15 in a rigid band picture) from first principles local density calculations. The change in potential due to a particular phonon mode is calculated from the difference of self-consistent one-electron potentials, and appropriate Fermi surface averages are carried out for selected modes, allowing us to obtain the phonon linewidth due to the electron-phonon interaction, and the corresponding coupling strength λQ. Here we establish the numerical accuracy within the dual representation of the potential used in the Linearized Augmented Plane Wave (LAPW) method. Evaluations of phonon linewidths and mode coupling strengths are presented for Al and Nb and compared with previous information on these modes. We present preliminary results for the full matrix elements and coupling of the La2CuO4 oxygen planar X-point breathing mode, and compare with a simpler approximation.

The torsion of the multi-span aqueduct body was studied under the lateral seismic excitation by FSI computational analysis. The results show that the difference of stiffness of both sides has little influence on the torque of the aqueduct body. However, the influence of the torque on both end sections of the aqueduct body is not to be neglected. For the simply-supported beam aqueduct, if the centre moment of the aqueduct is adopted as the controlling condition to design the whole aqueduct body and when the bending-torsion effect is small, the safety of anti-seismic structures can meet the requirements. Otherwise, on the section between the centre section of the aqueduct body and the end slot section, the safety of anti-seismic structures could not meet the requirements.

This paper presents a nonlinear rubber spring model for the primary suspension of the railway vehicle, which can effectively describe the amplitude dependency and the frequency dependency of the rubber spring, by taking the elastic force, the fractional derivative viscous force, and nonlinear friction force into account. An improved two-dimensional vehicle–track coupled system is developed based on the nonlinear rubber spring model of the primary suspension. Nonlinear Hertz theory is used to couple the vehicle and track subsystems. The railway vehicle subsystem is regarded as a multibody system with ten degrees-of-freedom, and the track subsystem is treated as finite Euler–Bernoulli beams supported on a discrete–elastic foundation. Mechanical characteristic of the rubber spring due to harmonic excitations is analyzed to clarify the stiffness and damping dependencies on the excitation frequency and the displacement amplitude. Dynamic responses of the vehicle–track coupled dynamics system induced by the welded joint irregularity and random track irregularity have been performed to illustrate the difference between the Kelvin–Voigt model and the proposed model in the time and frequency domain.
