Elastic Wave Propagation in Strongly Nonlinear Lattices and Its Active Control
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work studies elastic wave propagation in strongly nonlinear periodic systems and its active control with specific attention to an infinite mass-in-mass lattice. Piezoelectric materials are applied to it to provide ...
Modeling of Welded Joints in a Pyramidal Truss Sandwich Panel Using Beam and Shell Finite Elements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pyramidal truss sandwich panels (PTSPs) are widely used in engineering structures and their face sheets and core parts are generally bonded by the welding process. A large number of solid elements are usually required in ...
Periodic Solutions of Wave Propagation in a Strongly Nonlinear Monatomic Chain and Their Novel Stability and Bifurcation Analyses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A modified incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method is used to determine periodic solutions of wave propagation in discrete, strongly nonlinear, periodic structures, and solutions are found to be in a two-dimensional ...
A Spatial and Temporal Harmonic Balance Method for Obtaining Periodic Solutions of a Nonlinear Partial Differential Equation With a Linear Complex Boundary Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A spatial and temporal harmonic balance (STHB) method is demonstrated in this work by solving periodic solutions of a nonlinear string equation with a linear complex boundary condition, and stability analysis of the solutions ...
Analysis on In-Plane 2:2:1 Internal Resonance of a Complex Cable-Stayed Bridge System Under External Harmonic Excitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nonlinear dynamic analysis of a cable-stayed bridge has been a hot topic due to its structural flexibility. Based on integro-partial differential equations of a double-cable-stayed shallow-arch model, in-plane 2:2:1 internal ...
Enhanced Pose Adjustment System for Wing-Box Assembly in Large Aircraft Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Strict quality requirements in aircraft manufacturing demand high-accuracy pose adjustment systems. However, the pose alignment process of a large complex structure is also affected by thermal and gravity deformations to ...
Nonlinear Transverse Vibration of a Hyperelastic Beam Under Harmonically Varying Axial Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nonlinear transverse vibration of a hyperelastic beam under a harmonically varying axial load is analyzed in this work. Equations of motion of the beam are derived via the extended Hamilton's principle, where transverse ...
