We consider the motion of non-Newtonian behavior in the inter-disk space of the liquid separator. The shared medium is supplied from the periphery of the disks and moves to the center of the machine. Under the influence of centrifugal force the particles of the dispersed phase are precipitated to the bottom surface of the top disk to form a thin layer of precipitate, which moves toward the periphery of the disk. The equations of motion are solved by the equal-discharge-increments method. In this case, the flow field is introduced surfaces of equal costs for the continuous phase, which are determined by the conditions of constant flow velocity of the medium between them. To determine the locations of input surfaces, the recurrent type differential equations are recorded. The equations of motion, recorded on the flow lines, are simplified and take the form of ordinary differential equations in the longitudinal coordinate. The term, takes into account the effect of viscous friction in the equation of motion, contains the partial derivatives of the transverse coordinate. For their computation, a grid solution can be represented as a series expansion in the complete system of basis functions, satisfying the boundary condition. The presence of moving sediment layer and the centrifugal force influence causes the asymmetry of the flow in the dispersion medium in the inter-disk space. In this work the basic functions that take into account the asymmetry of the flow were constructed. In order to determine the type of basis functions, the Poiseuille flow in a conical slit with a moving wall was considered. An algebraic equation for calculating the extremum point of the function of speed made up. It is shown, that for the power fluid in the areas of increasing and decreasing functions, there are different solutions. The studies proposed a system of basis functions for the approximation of the grid solutions. It is shown, that the proposed features provide continuity of the viscous stress tensor in the whole flow area.

In this paper, the post-divergence behaviour of fluid-conveying pipes supported at both ends is studied using the complete extensible nonlinear equations of motion. The two coupled nonlinear partial differential equations are discretized via Galerkin’s method and the resulting set of ordinary differential equations is solved by Houbolt’s finite difference method and also using AUTO. Typically, the pipe is stable and retains its original static equilibrium position up to where it loses stability by a supercritical pitchfork bifurcation. By increasing the flow velocity, the amplitude of the buckled position increases, but no secondary instability can be observed thereafter, in agreement with Holmes’ results for his simplified model. The effect of different parameters on the behaviour of the pipe has been studied. By increasing the externally applied tension, or by increasing the gravity parameter, the critical flow velocity for the pitchfork bifurcation increases. The pitchfork bifurcation is subcritical if the nondimensional externally imposed tension, is greater than the nondimensional axial rigidity. The solution in the vicinity of the critical point for this case is confirmed to be subcritical, although the fold and the stable non-trivial solution thereafter could not be seen — perhaps because the model is correct to only third-order of magnitude. Dynamic instabilities may be possible for a pipe hinged at both ends but free to slide axially at the downstream end, according to preliminary results.

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.

An analytical formulation for the roller motion in a cylindrical roller bearing is presented in terms of the classical differential equations of motion. Roller-race interaction is analyzed in detail and the resulting normal force and moment vectors are determined. Elastohydrodynamic traction models are considered in determining the roller-race tractive forces and moments. Formulation for the roller end and race flange interaction during skewing of the roller is also considered. Roller-cage interactions are assumed to be either hydrodynamic or fully metallic. Simple relationships are used to determine the churning and drag losses.

This paper presents an analysis on the nonlinear dynamics and multi-pulse chaotic motions of a simply-supported symmetric cross-ply composite laminated rectangular thin plate with the parametric and forcing excitations. Firstly, based on the Reddy’s three-order shear deformation plate theory and the model of the von Karman type geometric nonlinearity, the nonlinear governing partial differential equations of motion for the composite laminated rectangular thin plate are derived by using the Hamilton’s principle. Then, using the second-order Galerkin discretization approach, the partial differential governing equations of motion are transformed to nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The case of the primary parametric resonance and 1:1 internal resonance is considered. Four-dimensional averaged equation is obtained by using the method of multiple scales. From the averaged equation obtained here, the theory of normal form is used to give the explicit expressions of normal form. Based on normal form, the energy phase method is utilized to analyze the global bifurcations and multi-pulse chaotic dynamics of the composite laminated rectangular thin plate. The results obtained above illustrate the existence of the chaos for the Smale horseshoe sense in a parametrical and forcing excited composite laminated thin plate. The chaotic motions of the composite laminated rectangular thin plate are also found by using numerical simulation. The results of numerical simulation also indicate that there exist different shapes of the multi-pulse chaotic motions for the composite laminated rectangular thin plate.

Motivated by the Hamilton–Jacobi approach of constrained systems, we analyze the classical structure of a four-dimensional superstring. The equations of motion for a singular system are obtained as total differential equations in many variables. The path integral quantization based on Hamilton–Jacobi approach is applied to quantize the system, and the integration is taken over the canonical phase space coordinates.

In this paper, multibody dynamic modeling and flutter analysis of a flexible slender vehicle are investigated. The method is a comprehensive procedure based on the hybrid equations of motion in terms of quasi-coordinates. The equations consist of ordinary differential equations for the rigid body motions of the vehicle and partial differential equations for the elastic deformations of the flexible components of the vehicle. These equations are naturally nonlinear, but to avoid high nonlinearity of equations the elastic displacements are assumed to be small so that the equations of motion can be linearized. For the aeroelastic analysis a perturbation approach is used, by which the problem is divided into a nonlinear flight dynamics problem for quasi-rigid flight vehicle and a linear extended aeroelasticity problem for the elastic deformations and perturbations in the rigid body motions. In this manner, the trim values that are obtained from the first problem are used as an input to the second problem. The body of the vehicle is modeled with a uniform free–free beam and the aeroelastic forces are derived from the strip theory. The effect of some crucial geometric and physical parameters and the acting forces on the flutter speed and frequency of the vehicle are investigated.

Multi-Hamiltonian systems are investigated by using the Hamilton–Jacobi method. Integration of a set of total differential equations which includes the equations of motion and the action integral function is discussed. It is shown that this set is integrable if and only if the total variations of the Hamiltonians vanish. Two examples are studied.
