A three-dimensional model is developed to study the dynamic process of three-roll plate bending using finite element method (FEM). In this work, the continuous three-roll bending configuration with cylindrical rolls is used to bend a thick plate into a cylindrical shape. It presents the geometrical setup and the finite element model. This 3D simulation is based on the elastic plastic explicit dynamic FEM under the ANSYS/LS-DYNA environment. Effect of initial strain and change of material properties during deformation is neglected. In order to investigate the influence of parameters on the process, top roller position, friction between rolls and plate, and temperature are also discussed. It is found that the simulation program is a feasible and economical method to study the influence of these parameters, and the FEM simulation can also provide engineers with a convenient analytical tool for optimizing process parameters.

The vibration and damping characteristics of an assembled structure made of steel are investigated by an experimental modal analysis and compared with the results of a finite element modal analysis. A generic experiment is carried out to evaluate the stiffness and the damping properties of the structure's join patches. Using these results, an appropriate finite element model of the structure is developed where the join patches are represented by thin-layer elements containing material properties which are derived from the generic experiment's results. The joint's stiffness is modeled by orthotropic material behavior whereas the damping properties are represented by the model of constant hysteresis, leading to a complex-valued stiffness matrix. A comparison between the experimental and the numerical modal analysis shows good agreement. A more detailed damping model in conjunction with an optimization procedure for the joint's parameters results in an improved correlation between the experimental and the numerical modal quantities and reveals that the results of the generic experiment are sound.

Abstract This paper aims to introduce a simplified moment-rotation backbone model for exploring the nonlinear behavior of shallow foundations subjected to rocking. The model is developed based on parametric numerical investigations of rectangular footings on dense dry sand, taking advantage of a nonlinear macro-element model verified based on a set of experimental results. Empirical expressions are proposed for rocking stiffness degradation due to gravity loads and foundation rotation as a function of the factor of safety against vertical loads and aspect ratio of foundations. Similar to previous researches, the uplift reference rotation was introduced to explore a new closedform expression appropriate for normalizing the foundation response in a non-dimensional form. The proposed approach for stiffness degradation and nonlinear backbone model of rocking foundations aims to be simple, to minimize the dependence on the variable parameters, and to provide physically sound selections for engineering applications.

This paper deals with evaluation of damping properties of natural fibre composites consisting of bamboo fibre as reinforcement, epoxy as matrix and cenosphere as particulate filler. Hand lay-up technique is used to fabricate the composites with varying number of layers and different weight percentage of cenosphere filler. The prepared specimens are subjected to free vibration test (FVT) to investigate the damping ratio and natural frequency. Damping of the bamboo–epoxy composites is analysed experimentally using cantilever beam test set up by impulse technique. The investigation reveals that the number of layers and cenosphere filler content influences the natural frequency and the damping ratio.

Rotor internal damping has been indicated as one of the main causes of instability in rotatingmachinery for more than a century. However, the exact characterisation of this damping is still an unsolvedresearch topic. Therefore, in this thesis the consequences of material damping in rotating shafts areexamined more in depth. Two main steps are considered. Firstly, a finite element model of the beam,including viscous and hysteretic damping, is constructed. This model allows to calculate the thresholdspeed of instability and the resonance frequencies of a shaft. Furthermore it allows to vary the dampingparameters and to compare the considered models giving an indication of the general relations betweeninstability and damping properties. Secondly, an experimental approach should elucidate which model fitsbest for the physical damping. In general, the main purpose is to gain new insights into how the dampingshould really be modelled to have the most accurate and safe prediction of a designed rotor.
