Prestressed Beams

This paper deals with the effect of the prestress load on the free and forced dynamic behavior and vertical vibration of the prestressed beams. The analysis applies both the analytical frequency equation and the finite element method (FEM) using ABAQUS software to predict the fundamental natural frequency (FNF) of the simply supported unbonded prestressed beams. The energy method has been employed to derive the effective prestressing load to determine the eccentricity effect. In regard to the forced response of the prestressed beam, a moving point load with a constant value and various velocities and excitation frequencies is applied. Extensive parametric studies are carried out taking into account different factors including prestress load, eccentricity, concrete ratio, span-to-depth ratio, velocity, and frequency of the moving load. The comparison of the FNFs obtained by the formula with those obtained from FEM models indicates that the results are in a good agreement. This convergence demonstrates that the proposed formulation can predict the FNF of the eccentrically prestressed beams with high reliability. The time-histories curves for midspan displacement of the unbonded prestressed beams and the dynamic magnification factors are also evaluated. The results illustrate that the aforementioned factors have an indispensable contribution to the beam dynamic behavior.

Nonuniform Motion

A bidirectional functionally graded Sandwich (BFGSW) beam model made from three distinct materials is proposed and its dynamic behavior due to nonuniform motion of a moving point load is investigated for the first time. The beam consists of three layers, a homogeneous core, and two functionally graded face sheets with material properties varying in both the thickness and longitudinal directions by power gradation laws. Based on the first-order shear deformation beam theory, a finite beam element is derived and employed in computing dynamic response of the beam. The element which used the shear correction factor is simple with the stiffness and mass matrices evaluated analytically. The numerical result reveals that the material distribution plays an important role in the dynamic response of the beam, and the beam can be designed to meet the desired dynamic magnification factor by appropriately choosing the material grading indexes. A parametric study is carried out to highlight the effects of the material distribution, the beam layer thickness and aspect ratios, and the moving load speed on the dynamic characteristics. The influence of acceleration and deceleration of the moving load on the dynamic behavior of the beam is also examined and highlighted.

This paper discusses the dynamic characteristics of an elastically supported Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to an initially loaded compressive force and a moving point load. The eccentricity of the axial force is taken into consideration. The time-histories for beam deflection and the dynamic magnification factors are computed by using the Galerkin finite element method and the implicit Newmark method. The effects of decelerated and accelerated motions on the dynamic characteristics are also examined. The influence of the axial force, eccentricity and the moving load parameters on the dynamic characteristics of the beams is investigated and highlighted.

Abstract The dynamic response of fractionally damped viscoelastic plates subjected to a moving point load is investigated. In order to capture the viscoelastic dynamic behavior more accurately, the material is modeled using the fractionally damped Kelvin–Voigt model (rather than the integer-type viscoelastic model). The Riemann–Liouville fractional derivative of order 0 < α ≤ 1 is applied. Galerkin's method and Newton–Raphson technique are used to evaluate the natural frequencies and corresponding damping coefficients. The structure is subject to a moving point load, traveling at different speeds. The modal summation technique is applied to generate the dynamic response of the plate. The influence of the order of the fractional derivative on the free and transient vibrations is studied for different velocities of the moving load. The results are compared with those using the classical integer-type Kelvin–Voigt viscoelastic model. The results show that an increase in the order of the fractional derivative causes a significant decrease in the maximum dynamic amplification factor, especially in the “dynamic zone” of the normalized sweep time. The dynamic behavior of the plate is verified with ansys.

The dynamic behavior of tied-arch bridges under the action of moving load is investigated. The main aim of the paper is to quantify, numerically, dynamic amplification factors of typical kinematic and stress design variables by means of a parametric study developed in terms of the structural characteristics of the bridge and moving loads. The basic formulation is developed by using a finite element approach, in which refined schematization is adopted to analyze the interaction between the bridge structure and moving loads. Moreover, in order to evaluate, numerically, the influence of coupling effects between bridge deformations and moving loads, the analysis focuses attention on usually neglected nonstandard terms in the inertial forces concerning both centripetal acceleration and Coriolis acceleration. Sensitivity analyses are proposed in terms of dynamic impact factors, in which the effects produced by the external mass of the moving system on the dynamic bridge behavior are evaluated.

Pasternak Elastic Foundation

In this study, the response of two homogeneous parallel beams with two-parameter Pasternak elastic foundation subjected to a constant uniform partially distributed moving force is considered. On the basis of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the fourth order partial differential equations of motion describing the behavior of the beams when subjected to a moving force were formulated. In order to solve the resulting initial-boundary value problem, finite Fourier sine integral technique and differential transform scheme were employed to obtain the analytical solution. The dynamic responses of the two beams obtained was investigated under moving force conditions using MATLAB. The effects of speed of the moving force, layer parameters such as stiffness (K_0) and shear modulus (G_0 ) have been conducted for the moving force. Various values of speed of the moving load, stiffness parameters and shear modulus were considered. The results obtained indicates that response amplitudes of both the upper and lower beams increases with increase in the speed of the moving load. Increasing the stiffness parameter is observed to cause a decrease in the response amplitudes of the beams. The response amplitudes decreases with increase in the shear modulus of the linear elastic layer.

Hydroelastic Response

The hydroelastic response of a very large floating structure in regular waves suffering an external moving point load is considered. The linearized velocity potential theory is adopted to describe the fluid flow. To take into account the coupled effects of the structure deformation and fluid motion, the structure is divided into multiple segments and connected by an elastic beam. Then through adding a stiffness matrix arising from the elastic beam into the multiple bodies coupled motion equations, the hydroelastic response is considered. By applying the Fourier transform to the obtained frequency domain coefficients, the motion equation is transformed into the time domain and the external point load is further considered. The accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified through the comparison with experimental results. Finally, extensive results are provided, and the effects of the moving point load on the hydroelastic response of the very large floating structure are investigated in detail.

The paper aims at issuing of a virtual simulation model that would be able to assess the actual working modes of a torque converter, both hydraulically and mechanically. To estimating the dynamic behavior we used the assessing equations of the converter’s performance coefficients. The rotational inertial phenomena due to the transient regimes during the getaway phase are also considered. The modeling process assumed the use of the pre-defined structures of the Simulink-Matlab and Simscape-Matlab modules. The virtual model of the torque converter was fed with the experimentally determined, performance parameters as input. The input also consisted of the inertia moments of the converter’s components. Eventually, by interrogating the simulation model, we’ve got and plotted the time histories of the converter’s impeller and turbine angular velocities during the vehicle’s getaway process.
