    An approximate method for the surge response of the tension leg platform

    , Article Journal of Marine Science and Application ; Vol. 13, issue. 1 , March , 2014 , p. 99-104 Shoghi, R ; Tabeshpour, M. R ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    The solution for the Duffing equation in a nonlinear vibration problem is studied in this paper. Clearly, in the case of the perturb parameter being a larger value, the traditional perturbation method is no longer valid but the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) is applicable usually. HPM is used to solve the weak and strong nonlinear differential equations for finding the perturbed frequency of the response. The obtained frequencies via HPM and the approximate method have good accordance for weak and strong nonlinear differential equations. Additionally, the calculated responses by use of the approximate method are compared with the responses obtained from the Numerical method in the time...

    Abstract
    The ride comfort of high-speed trains passing over railway bridges is studied in this paper. The effects of some nonlinear parameters in a carriage-track-bridge system are investigated such as the load-stiffening characteristics of the rail-pad and the ballast, rubber elements in the primary and secondary suspension systems. The influence of the track irregularity and train speed on two comfort indicators, namely Sperling's comfort index and the maximum acceleration level, are also studied. Timoshenko beam theory is used for modelling the rail and bridge and two layers of parallel damped springs in conjunction with a layer of mass are used to model the rail-pads, sleepers and ballast.

    , Article Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation ; Volume 8, Issue 2 , 2003 , Pages 113-134 ; 10075704 (ISSN) Jalili, N ; Esmailzadeh, E ; Sharif University of Technology
    2003
    Abstract
    A distributed, nonlinear dynamic vibration neutralizer is presented to improve vibration suppression characteristics of harmonically excited structures. The absorber subsection consists of a double-ended cantilever beam carrying intermediate lumped masses. The positions of the moving masses are adjustable along the beam in order to comply with the desired optimal performance. The absorber is assumed to be linearly elastic but with the inextensibility along the neutral axis of the beam. Due to the existence of parametric resonance, nonlinearities of the system begin to affect the motion and hence parametric instability occurs. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of...

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Kavyanpoor, Mobin (Author) ; Dehghani Firouzabadi, Roohollah (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The dry friction and its effect on the dynamics and vibrations of structures have always been one of the remarkable engineering issues. In the structures of engineering, dry friction mostly exists at the joints of structures and substrates and dry friction can lead to the nonlinearity and even chaos in the vibration of structures. There are different theories for the friction modeling and the most famous theory is the relation between the proportional ratio of the force of friction and perpendicular force to the surface. The main characteristic of friction as a damper force is the change of direction along with change in the direction of velocity. In the present study, at first, the nature...

    Abstract
    The objective of this paper is to apply He's homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to analyze nonlinear free vibration of simply supported Timoshenko beams considering the effects of rotary inertia and shear deformation. First, the equation governing the nonlinear free vibration of a Timoshinko beam is nondimensionalized. Galerkin's projection method is utilized to reduce the governing nonlinear partial differential equation to a nonlinear ordinary differential equation. HPM is then used to find analytic expressions for nonlinear natural frequencies of the pre-stretched beam. A parametric study has also been applied in order to investigate the effects of design parameters such as applied axial...

    Abstract
    In this paper a nonlinear dynamic model for drill string in inclined well drilling is developed. Effects of drilling mud flow rate, weight on bit, angular velocity along with viscous damping on stability and vibration of the drill string are studied. Findings indicate the nonlinear effects are significant on the results. The effects of drilling mud flow rate and weight on bit on the natural frequencies and time responses are evaluated. Enhancement of drilling mud flow rate results in decreasing of natural frequencies and vibrational amplitude, while increasing the weight on bit, leads to decrease of the natural frequencies and increase the vibrational amplitude. © JVE INTERNATIONAL LTD  

    An Analytical Approach to Nonlinear Vibrations of a Three-Layered Sandwich Beam with a Viscoelastic Core, under the Effects of Internal Resonance, Employing MMS

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology PashaJavid, Babak (Author) ; Haddadpour, Hassan (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Vibrations with high amplitudes in continuous systems and models with multiple degrees of freedom, in specific conditions, is concomitant with a phenomenon called internal resonance. In the presence of this phenomenon, energy is transferred from one directly excited mode to the other vibrating modes of the structure results in response of the structure to be combination of the excited modes. In that situation occurrence of the internal resonance may decrease the level of undesired vibrations of the structure. This behavior is of interest especially in sandwich structures with viscoelastic cores that are designated to improve the damping characteristics of the structure and the property may...

    Abstract
    Presence of fluid in closed ends beam can increase beam hardness against pressure and buckling loads. This behavior is due to incompressibility or very low compressibility of fluids. there is a lot of research in the literature focusing on fluid solid interaction in pipe flow, but there is not any reported research studying on fluid filled beam, where fluid doesn’t flow across the beam.

    Abstract
    Vibration of flexible slender structures under vortex induced vibrations is one of the important subjects in the different fields of engineering such as overhead electricity transmission cables, columns, tall towers and suspended bridges. During passes of flow around bluff bodies, in the certain range of velocity, the Von Karman vortices sheds unsynchronized from two sides of bluff bodies. When structure frequency closed to the vortex shedding frequency, resonant vibrations happen and one can observe vibrations with limited amplitude. Simulations of these phenomenons are so complicated and time consuming prosess, but there is an engineering method for simulating this phenomenon. The aim of...

    Abstract
    In this paper, the strain gradient theory, a non-classical continuum theory able to capture the size effect happening in micro-scale structures, is employed in order to investigate the size-dependent nonlinear forced vibration of Euler-Bernoulli microbeams. The nonlinearities are caused by mid-plane stretching and nonlinear external forces such as van-der-Waals force. The nonlinear governing equations of the microbeams are solved analytically utilizing the perturbation techniques. The primary, super-harmonic and sub-harmonic resonances of a microbeam are studied and the size-dependency of the frequency responses is assessed. The results indicate that the nonlinear forced vibration behavior...

    Abstract
    In this paper, the large amplitude tree vibration of a doubly clamped microbeam is considered. The effects of shear deformation and rotary inertia on the large amplitude vibration of the microbeam are investigated. To this end, first Hamilton's principle is used in deriving the partial differential equation of the microbeam response under the mentioned conditions. Then, implementing the Galerkin's method the partial differential equation is converted to an ordinary nonlinear differential equation. Finally, the method of multiple scales is used to determine a second order perturbation solution for the obtained ODE. The results show that nonlinearity acts in the direction of increasing the...

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Rahmanian, Mohammad (Author) ; Dehghani Firouz Abadi, Ruhollah (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In the current study, nonlinear vibration and stability of conical shells with both separate and concurrent internal and external flows are studied. External and internal flows are in the supersonic and subsonic regimes, respectively. The Krumhar’s aerodynamic piston theory is utilized to model the external loading on the structure as well as the compressible potential flow model to capture the internal fluid dynamics. The so-called compressible fluid model is obtained via simplification of the Navier-Stockes equations after applying the inviscid and irrotational assumptions. The nonlinear structural equations of motion are derived using the Hamiltonian dynamics approach and utilizing the...

    Abstract
    Nowadays the combination of mechanical and electronic systems in small scales is gaining attention. Micro electro-mechanical systems are widely used in various industries such as car manufacturing and electronic chips. In these devices, the most important and useful mechanical structures are beams and plates. Therefore, investigating the mechanical properties of these structures in very small scales (micro and nano) is of great importance. Decreasing the size to these scales leads to the dependence of the behavior of these structures to size. Accordingly, some theories for prediction of these behaviors have been presented, one of which is the strain gradient theory. This theory is used in...

    Abstract
    Investigation of possible vibratory responses of dynamical systems around their stable equilibria is an essential step which must be taken before their both design and application. The attained results of such a study can largely help to prevent instability in closed-loop stabilized systems by avoiding excitation of the system in the neighborhood of its resonance. In this paper, nonlinear oscillations of a Rotary Inverted Pendulum (RIP) enjoying a full-state feedback controller is investigated. Lagrange’s equations are employed to derive an accurate 2-DoF mathematical model whose parameters are extracted by both measurement and 3D modeling of the real system components. The perturbative...
