Based on the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), the nonlinear dynamic equations involving the transverse shear deformation and initial geometric imperfections were derived with the Hamilton philosophy. The axial shallow groove of the laminated composite cylindrical shell was treated as the initial geometric imperfections in the dynamic equations. A semi-analytical method of expanding displacements and loads along the circumferential direction and employing the finite difference method along the axial direction and in the time domain is used to solve the governing equations and obtain the dynamic response of the laminated shell. The B-R criterion was employed to determine the critical loads of dynamic buckling of the shell. The effects of the parameters of the shallow groove on the dynamic response and buckling were discussed in this paper and the results show that the axial shallow grooves greatly affect the dynamic response and buckling.展开更多

The rolling motion equation of the ship in random oblique waves was established. The righting arm obtained by the numerical simulation was approximately fitted by an analytical function. The irregular waves were decomposed into two Gauss stationary random processes, and the CARMA(2, 1) model was used to fit the spectral density function of parametric and forced excitations. The stochastic energy envelope averaging method was used to solve the PDFs and the probability. The validity of the semi-analytical method was verified by the Monte Carlo method. The C11 ship was taken as an example, and the influences of the system parameters on the PDFs and probability were analyzed. The results show that the probability of ship rolling is affected by the characteristic wave height, wave length, and the heading angle. In order to provide proper advice for the ship’s manoeuvring, the parametric excitations should be considered appropriately when the ship navigates in the oblique seas.展开更多

To enlighten the capability of the presented analytical method, the ?nite element method(FEM) is used to verify the accuracy of the analytical results in some case studies. The perfect agreement con-?rms the accuracy of the presented method. Due to the applicability of FG pH-sensitive hydrogels, some design factors such as the semi-angle, the bending curvature, the aspect ratio, and the distributions of deformation and stress ?elds are studied. Furthermore, the tangential free-stress axes are illustrated in deformed con?guration.展开更多

We expand the electrostatic potential of the system in terms of some basis functions such as spherical harmonic function and cylinder function. The expansion coefficients can be obtained by solving the equations of the boundary conditions, combining an analytical translation transform of the coordinates and a numerical multipoint collection method. The precise electrostatic potential and the interaction energy are then obtained automatically. The method is available not only for the uniformly charged colloids but also for nonuniformly charged ones. We have successfully applied it to unconfined diluted colloid system and some confined systems such as the long cylinder wall confinement, the air–water interfacial confinement and porous membrane confinement. The consistence checks of our calculations with some known analytical cases have been made for all our applications. In theory, the method is applicable to any dilute colloid solutions with an arbitrary distribution of the surface charge on the colloidal particle under a regular solid confinement, such as spherical cavity confinement and lamellar confinement.展开更多

The Lamb's solution and the approximate formulae were used to establish the relation of the contact force and deflection between the foundation and soil. Therefore, the foundation can be separated from soil and analyzed by FEM as for the static cases. The plate can be treated as that the known forces are acting on the upper surface, and the contact pressure from soil can be represented as the deflection. So that only the plate needs to be divided into elements in the analysis. By this method, a series of vibration problems, including various shapes and rigidities of foundations, different excitation frequencies, were analyzed. Furthermore, it can be used for the embedded foundation. The numerical examples show that this method has simplicity, highly accurate and versatile. It is an effective method for the dynamic analysis of foundations.展开更多

文摘Dry friction damping structures are widely-used in aero-engines to mitigate vibration.The nonlinear nature of friction and the two-dimensional in-plane motion on the contact interface bring challenges to accurately and efficiently predict the forced response of frictionally damped structures.The state-of-the-art Multi-Harmonic Balance Method(MHBM)on quasi-3D contact model in engineering cannot precisely capture the kinematics on the friction interface although the efficiency is high.The full-3D contact model can describe the constitutive relationship of the interface in a more accurate manner;however,the efficiency and convergence are not guaranteed for large-scale models.In this paper,a semi-analytical MHBM on full-3D contact model is proposed.The original Trajectory Tracking Method(TTM)for evaluating the contact force is reformulated to make the calculation more concise and the derivation of the Analytical Jacobian Matrix(AJM)feasible.Based on the chain rule of derivation,the AJM which is the core to upgrade the performance is deduced.Through a shrouded blade finite element model,the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method are compared with both the MHBM on full-3D contact model with numerical Jacobian matrix and the MHBM on quasi-3D contact model with AJM.The results show that the AJM improves significantly the efficiency of the MHBM on full-3D contact model.The time cost of the proposed method is in the same order of magnitude as that of the MHBM on quasi-3D contact model.We also confirm that the full-3D contact model is necessary for the dynamic analyses of shrouded blades.If one uses the quasi-3D model,the estimation relative error of damping can even reach 31.8%in some cases.In addition,the AJM also brings benefits for stability analysis.It is highly recommended that engineers use the MHBM on full-3D contact model for the dynamic analysis and design of shrouded blades.

文摘In this paper,a simple direct space-time semi-analytical meshless scheme is proposed for the numerical approximation of the coupled Burgers'equations.During the whole solution procedure,two different schemes are considered in terms of radial and non-radial basis functions.The time-dependent variable in the first radial scheme is directly considered as the normal space variables to formulate an"isotropic"space-time radial basis function.The second non-radial scheme considered relationship between time-dependent and spacedependent variables.Under such circumstance,we can get a one-step space-time meshless scheme.The numerical findings demonstrate that the proposed meshless schemes are precise,user-friendly,and effective in solving the coupled Burgers'equations.

文摘High-speed milling(HSM)is advantageous for machining high-quality complex-structure surface components with various materials.Identifying and estimating cutting force signals for characterizing HSM is of high significance.However,considering the tool runout and size effects,many proposed models focus on the material and mechanical characteristics.This study presents a novel approach for predicting micromilling cutting forces using a semianalytical multidimensional model that integrates experimental empirical data and a mechanical theoretical force model.A novel analytical optimization approach is provided to identify the cutting forces,classify the cutting states,and determine the tool runout using an adaptive algorithm that simplifies modeling and calculation.The instantaneous un-deformed chip thickness(IUCT)is determined from the trochoidal trajectories of each tool flute and optimized using the bisection method.Herein,the computational efficiency is improved,and the errors are clarified.The tool runout parameters are identified from the processed displacement signals and determined from the preprocessed vibration signals using an adaptive signal processing method.It is reliable and stable for determining tool runout and is an effective foundation for the force model.This approach is verified using HSM tests.Herein,the determination coefficients are stable above 0.9.It is convenient and efficient for achieving the key intermediate parameters(IUCT and tool runout),which can be generalized to various machining conditions and operations.

文摘The three-dimensional natural vibration characteristics of water inside a moon pool of an ocean structures are studied. The governing equations are derived based on the linear potential flow theory, and the boundary condition of the total opening bottom suggested by Molin is adopted. A semi-analytical method is used to solve the governing equations, and the natural frequencies and the motion modes are obtained. Two types of motions are studied: (1) the piston motion in the vertical direction, and (2) the sloshing motion of the free surface. The influences of moon pool's structural parameters on the natural frequencies, and the modal shapes are analyzed.
文摘In this paper,a semi-analytical method for the forced vibration analysis of cracked laminated composite beam(CLCB)is investigated.One computational model is formulated by Timoshenko beam theory and its dynamic solution is solved using the Jacobi-Ritz method.The boundary conditions(BCs)at both ends of the CLCB are generalized by the application of artificial elastic springs,the CLCB is separated into two elements along the crack,the flexibility coefficient of fracture theory is used to model the essential continuous condition of the connective interface.All the allowable displacement functions used to analyze dynamic characteristics of CLCB are expressed by classical Jacobi orthogonal polynomials in a more general form.The accuracy of the proposed method is verified through the compare with results of the finite element method(software ABAQUS is used in this paper).On this basis,the parametric study for dynamic analysis characteristics of CLCB is performed to provide reference datum for engineers.
文摘A semi-analytical and semi-numerical method is proposed for the dynamic analysis of foundations. The Lamb's solution and the approximate formulae were used to establish the relation of the contact force and deflection between the foundation and soil. Therefore, the foundation can be separated from soil and analyzed by FEM as for the static cases. The plate can be treated as that the known forces are acting on the upper surface, and the contact pressure from soil can be represented as the deflection. So that only the plate needs to be divided into elements in the analysis. By this method, a series of vibration problems, including various shapes and rigidities of foundations, different excitation frequencies, were analyzed. Furthermore, it can be used for the embedded foundation. The numerical examples show that this method has simplicity, highly accurate and versatile. It is an effective method for the dynamic analysis of foundations.

文摘Based on the transfer matrix method and the virtual source simulation technique, this paper proposes a novel semi-analytical and semi-numerical method for solving 2-D sound- structure interaction problems under a harmonic excitation.Within any integration segment, as long as its length is small enough,along the circumferential curvilinear coordinate,the non- homogeneous matrix differential equation of an elastic ring of complex geometrical shape can be rewritten in terms of the homogeneous one by the method of extended homogeneous capacity proposed in this paper.For the exterior fluid domain,the multi-circular virtual source simulation technique is adopted.The source density distributed on each virtual circular curve may be ex- panded as the Fourier's series.Combining with the inverse fast Fourier transformation,a higher accuracy and efficiency method for solving 2-D exterior Helmholtz's problems is presented in this paper.In the aspect of solution to the coupling equations,the state vectors of elastic ring induced by the given harmonic excitation and generalized forces of coefficients of the Fourier series can be obtained respectively by using a high precision integration scheme combined with the method of extended homogeneous capacity put forward in this paper.According to the superposition princi- ple and compatibility conditions at the interface between the elastic ring and fluid,the algebraic equation of system can be directly constructed by using the least square approximation.Examples of acoustic radiation from two typical fluid-loaded elastic rings under a harmonic concentrated force are presented.Numerical results show that the method proposed is more efficient than the mixed FE-BE method in common use.
