In this study, the vibration behavior of circular and annular graphene sheet embedded in a Visco-Pasternak foundation and coupled with temperature change and under in-plane pre-load is studied. The single-layered annular graphene sheet is coupled by an enclosing viscoelastic medium which is simulated as a Visco- Pasternak foundation. By using the nonlocal elasticity theory and classical plate t...

A tremendous amount of research has been performed on the design and analysis of vibration energy harvester architectures with the goal of optimizing power output; most studies assume idealized input vibrations without paying much attention to whether such idealizations are broadly representative of real sources. These “idealized input signals” are typically derived from the expected nature of ...

In this study, rotating flexible shaft-disk system having flexible beams is considered as a dynamic system. After neglecting nonlinear terms, torsional vibration of the shaft-disk system and lateral and longitudinal vibration of the flexible beam are still coupled through the motor speed. The system has three natural frequencies; the flexible shaft-disk system torsional natural frequency, the f...

The oscillations of tall slender towers under environmental loads are usually of large amplitude. In order to protect these structures, suitable absorbers can be installed to control or limit the amplitude of oscillation. In this paper, passive and hybrid control strategies are used to improve the dynamic response of a tall tower. A pendulum attached to the top of the tower is used as a vibrati...

A mathematical model of a cracked rotor and an asymmetric rotor with two disks representing a turbine and a generator is uti­ lized to study the vibrations due to imbalance and side load. Nonlinearities typically related with a “breathing” crack are included using a Mayes steering function. Numerical simulations demonstrate how the variations of rotor parameters affect the vibration response an...

Abstract In this paper, a nonlinear vibration differential equation is established for the moment when tennis racket hits ball. At same time, we deduce relationship between string tension and separation time distance of hitting speed. Then article analyzes damping We use ANSYS finite element analysis software solid modeling modal rackets. The natural frequency was obtained through verification ...

In this study, electro-thermo-mechanical nonlinear vibration and instability of embedded piezoelectric micro-tube is carried out based on nonlocal theory and nonlinear Donnell's shell model. The smart micro-tube made of Poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is conveying an isentropic, incompressible fluid.

In this paper, vibrations and bifurcation of a damped system consists of a mass grounded by linear and nonlinear springs and a nonlinear damper is studied. Nonlinear equation of motion is derived using Newton’s equations. Approximate analytical solutions are obtained using multiple time scales (MTS) method. For free vibration, the approximate analytical results are compared with the numerical i...
