Resonant response of a non-linear vibro-impact system to combined deterministic harmonic and random excitations

The resonant resonance response of a single-degree-of-freedom non-linear vibro-impact oscillator, with cubic non-linearity items, to combined deterministic harmonic and random excitations is investigated. The method of multiple scales is used to derive the equations of modulation of amplitude and phase. The effects of damping, detuning, and intensity of random excitations are analyzed by means of perturbation and stochastic averaging method. The theoretical analyses verified by numerical simulations show that when the intensity of the random excitation increases, the non-trivial steady-state solution may change from a limit cycle to a diffused limit cycle. Under certain conditions, impact system may have two steady-state responses. One is a non-impact response, and the other is either an impact one or a non-impact one.     

Stochastic stability of non-linear SDOF systems

A semi-analytical procedure for obtaining stability conditions for strongly non-linear single degree of freedom system (SDOF) subjected to random excitations is presented using stochastic averaging technique. The method is useful for finding stability conditions for systems having highly irregular non-linear functions which cannot be integrated in closed form to yield analytical expressions for averaged drift and diffusion coefficients. In spite of numerical methods available for finding stability of SDOF system by determining Lyapunov exponent, the proposed technique may have to be adopted (i) when the excitation is non-white; and (ii) when numerical integration fails due to convergence problem. The method is developed in such a way that it lends itself to a numerical computational scheme using FFT for obtaining numerical values of drift and diffusion coefficients of Its differential equation and the corresponding FPK equation for the system. These values of averaged drift and diffusion coefficients are then fit into polynomial form using curve fitting technique so that polynomials can be used for stability analysis. Two example problems are solved as illustrations. The first one is the Van der Pol oscillator having non-linearities which can be treated purely analytically. The example is considered for the validation of the proposed method. The second one involves non-linearities in the form of signum function for which purely analytical solution is not possible. The results of the study show that the proposed method is useful and efficient for performing stability analysis of dynamic systems having any type of non-linearities.

Response Statistics of Three-Degree-of-Freedom Nonlinear System to Narrow-Band Random Excitation

The principal resonance of a 3-DOF nonlinear system to narrow-band random external excitations is investigated. The method of multiple scales is used to derive the equations for modulation of amplitude and phase. The behavior, stability and bifurcation of steady-state responses are studied by means of qualitative analysis. The effects of damping, detuning, and excitation intensity on responses are analyzed. The theoretical analyses are verified by numerical results. Both theoretical analyses and numerical simulations show that when the intensity of the random excitation increases, the nontrivial steady state solution may change from a limit cycle to a diffused limit cycle. Under some conditions, co-existence of two kinds of stable steady-state solutions, saturation and jump phenomena may occur. The stationary probability density function of responses for the co-existence case is obtained approximately.

Non-linear viscoelasticity of hagfish slime

We report here the first experimental measurements of non-linear rheological material properties of hagfish slime, a hydrated biopolymer/biofiber network, and develop a microstructural constitutive model to explain the observed non-linear viscoelastic behavior. The linear elastic modulus of the network is observed to be for timescales , making it one of the softest elastic biomaterials known. Non-linear rheology is examined via simple shear deformation, and we observe a secant elastic modulus which strain-softens at large input strain while the local tangent elastic modulus strain-stiffens simultaneously. This juxtaposition of simultaneous softening and stiffening suggests a general network structure composed of non-linear elastic strain-stiffening elements, here modeled as finite extensible non-linear elastic (FENE) springs, in which network connections are destroyed as elements are stretched. We simulate the network model in oscillatory shear and creep, including instrument effects from rotational inertia. The network model captures the simultaneous softening of the secant modulus and stiffening of tangent modulus as the model enters the non-linear viscoelastic regime.     

Oscillation pattern of stick-slip vibrations

This paper studies the stick-slip oscillations of discrete systems interacting with translating energy source through a non-linear smooth friction curve. The stick-slip limit cycle oscillations of a single degree-of-freedom model are examined by means of numerical time-integration and analytical methods. Similar approaches are also applied to the model of the coupled friction oscillator. Particularly, it is found that the steady-state response of the coupled oscillator can be divided into two different forms of oscillation (mode-merged and mode-separated oscillations) according to the frequency separation of two modes. The oscillation pattern of the steady-state response is shown to depend on system parameters such as detuning factor, energy source speed, and normal contact load.

A new analytical technique to find periodic solutions of non-linear systems

Based on the classical harmonic balance method a new technique is presented to determine higher approximate periodic solutions of the non-linear differential equations. The new method is systematic and simple. The solution covers the general initial value problem (i.e., for while the existing solution is determined for a particular case, especially for . The solution is easily transformed to perturbation solution. The method is used in various non-linear problems possessing second and more than second derivatives.     

Analysis of regular and irregular acoustic streaming patterns in a rectangular enclosure

This study reports an experimental investigation of the non-linear phenomena of regular (classical) and irregular streaming patterns generated in an air-filled rigid-walled square channel subjected to the acoustic standing waves of different frequencies and intensities. The interaction of acoustic waves and thermoviscous fluids is responsible for these phenomena. The resonator’s walls are maintained at isothermal condition. Synchronized particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique has been used to measure the streaming velocity fields. The experimental results show that at a given excitation frequency, regular streaming flow patterns are observed up to a certain value of the excitation amplitude. As the amplitude increases beyond this limit, the regular streaming is distorted to an irregular flow structure. The regular and irregular streaming are classified in terms of streaming Reynolds number . It is found that for Re_s2<50, classical streaming flow patterns are established and then deform to irregular and complex shapes as Re_s2 exceeds 50.
