The dynamic vibration absorbers have been applied to attenuate the rotor unbalance and torsional vibrations. The major purpose of this paper is to research the elimination of the fluid-induced vibration in the rotor/seal system using the absorber. The simplified rotor model with the absorber is established, and the Muszynska fluid force model is employed for the nonlinear seal force. The numerical method is used for the solutions of the nonlinear differential equations. The nonlinear responses of the rotor/seal system without and with the absorber are obtained, and then the rotating speed ranges by which the fluid-induced instability can be eliminated completely and partially are presented, respectively. The absorber parameters ranges by which the instability vibration can be eliminated completely and partially are obtained. The results show that the natural frequency vibration due to the fluid-induced instability in the rotor/seal system can be eliminated efficiently using the absorber. The appropriate natural frequency and damping ratio of the absorber can extend the complete elimination region of the instability vibration and postpone the occurrence of the instability vibration.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the use of embedded Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) nitinol wire for the enhancement of vibration and damping characteristics of filament-wound fiber-reinforced plastic composite hollow shafts. Design/methodology/approach The plain Glass Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (GFRP) and plain Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) hollow shafts were manufactured by filament winding technique. Experimental modal analysis was conducted for plain hollow shafts of C1045 steel, GFRP and CFRP by subjecting them to flexural vibrations as per ASTM standard C747, with both ends clamped (C-C) end condition to investigate their vibration and damping behavior in terms of first natural frequency, damping time and damping ratio. Nitinol wires pre-stressed at various pre-strains (2, 4 and 6 per cent) were embedded with CFRP hollow shafts following same manufacturing technique, and similar experimental modal analysis was carried out by activating nitinol wires. The first natural frequencies of all the shaft materials were also predicted theoretically and compared with experimental measurements. Findings Among the three materials C1045 steel, plain GFRP and plain CFRP, the vibration and damping behavior were found to be the best for plain CFRP. Hence, CFRP shafts were considered for further improvement by embedding nitinol wires at pre-stressed condition. For CFRP shafts embedded with nitinol wires, the damping time decreased; and damping ratio and first natural frequency increased with increase in percentage of pre-strain. In comparison with plain CFRP, 7 per cent increase in first natural frequency and 100 per cent increase in damping ratio were observed for nitinol embedded CFRP shafts with 6 per cent pre-strain. Theoretical predictions of the first natural frequencies agree well with the experimental results for all the shaft materials. Originality/value The effect of nitinol on vibration and damping characteristics of filament wound hollow CFRP composite shafts with different pre-strains has not been studied extensively by the previous researchers. This paper addresses the effect of embedded nitinol wires pre-stressed at three varied pre-strains, that is, 2, 4 and 6 per cent on the vibration and damping characteristics of composite hollow CFRP shafts manufactured by filament winding technique.

Abstract Ropeways such as gondola lifts have attracted increasing interest as a means of transportation in cities. However, swing of ropeway carriers is easily caused by wind, and usually a ropeway cannot operate if the wind velocity exceeds about 15m/s. The study of how to reduce the wind-induced swing of ropeway carriers has attracted many researchers. It had been said that it was impossible to reduce the vibration of pendulum type structures such as ropeway carriers by a dynamic absorber. But in 1993, Matsuhisa showed that the swing of carrier can be reduced by a dynamic absorber if it is located far above or below from the center of oscillation. Based on this finding, a dynamic absorber composed of a moving mass on an arc-shaped track was designed for practical use, and it was installed in chairlift-type carriers and gondola type carriers in snow skiing sites in Japan in 1995 for the first time in the world. It has been shown that a dynamic absorber with the weight of one tenth of the carrier can reduce the swing to half. The liquid dynamic absorber was also investigated. It has the same damping effect as the conventional solid absorber. It is easy to adjust the natural frequency and the damping ratio, and the structure is simple. Therefore, it will be applied for not only ropeway carriers but also ships and rope suspended bridge and others.

When using thermocouples directly connected to ultra-violet galvanometers for recording temperature transients, the low-voltage outputs necessitate the use of galvanometers with low natural frequencies. This puts a limitation on the overall dynamic performance. In a particular application, the user has to select the damping resistor for the galvanometer and the work describes how this is done so that the system is optimised for minimum integrated errors during a transient. The transient considered was of an exponential type which occurs frequently in practice and it is shown that the correct damping ratio and hence damping resistor for the galvanometer depends upon the non-dimensional parameter defined by the product of the natural frequency of the galvanometer and the time constant of the exponential. The results show that the usual value of damping ratio of 0·64 based on minimum sinusoidal distortion has to be modified for best dynamic performance. However, if the non-dimensional parameter is sufficiently large, higher values of damping can be used, which produce a large trace with acceptably small errors.

The work of vibration test has significant meanings for the researches and applications of 3-dimension and 5-direction braided composites. This article discusses the effects of added mass with different weight on the modal test of 3-dimension and 5-direction braided composites. The comparison of the modal parameters of 3-dimension and 5-direction braided composites tested by different weight of mass reveals that the additional mass is a mostly influence factor for vibration property of 3-dimension and 5-direction braided composites. The results of frequency response and force response curves show that smaller mass accelerometer is more effective for a wider range of frequencies around the resonance frequency, a higher natural frequency and a larger peak in these points. Force-response curves show that force response amplitude increases with the increase of additional mass weight, and the larger additional mass, the shorter time taken for reaching stationary state. The errors of natural frequency and damping ratio increase when the weight of additional mass increases. With the increase of modal orders, relative errors of modal characteristics have slighter decreasing degrees. The results derived from this article will provide a useful reference for precise modal analysis of 3-dimension and 5-direction braided composites.

Abstract In this study, a broadband frequency tunable dynamic absorber was designed and fabricated based on the primary design principle of a mass damper. A magneto-rheological elastomer that can change the relative stiffness when an external magnetic field is applied was used to control the natural frequency of the movable mass of the absorber. A coil to generate the magnetic field was also used as a movable mass to decrease the total weight and to create a constant closed loop of the magnetic force. The hammer impact test results show that the present absorber could change its natural frequency with minimal electric power and had a constant damping ratio. Experimental results of vibration absorbing of an acrylic flat plate show that the proposed absorber could change the natural frequency of the movable mass and reduce the vibration over a wide band by constantly applying the optimum current to the coil in the device with a small power consumption (less than 10 W). Therefore, the proposed absorber works effectively. Further, a technique to determine the electric current applied to the coil automatically based on the phase difference of the vibrational acceleration of the movable mass and the vibrating objective was also presented.

In this study, in order to evaluate water damping effects of hybrid pontoon system with cylinders, experimental studies were carried out. At first, in order to evaluate oscillatory motions, three small-scale models of hybrid, tapered, and pontoon were fabricated and tested under the still-water condition. Four acceleration gauges were attached on the top edges and acceleration of top edge were measured during the oscillation. Then, oscillatory motions of oscillation period and stabilizing time to steady-state were analyzed. Finally, based on the oscillatory motions, damping properties of the logarithmic decrement, damping ratio, and natural frequency of damped system were calculated and compared with each other. As the results of this study, it was found that hybrid model presented about 3.67 times higher decay rate of amplitude of the oscillatory motion than the pontoon model. Also, hybrid model presented about 3.67 times higher damping ratio than the pontoon model. Whereas the natural frequency of the pontoon and tapered model were nearly same with the natural frequency of undamped system, that of the hybrid model presented some difference with the that of the undamped system. In addition, periods of floating body at the wet mode presented about 1.5∼3.0 times longer periods than the dry mode, and it was expected that there was not possibility for the resonance. Therefore, it was expected that the hybrid model of this study should contribute to improve serviceability and safety of offshore floating structures as decreasing oscillatory motions.

This paper proposes an input shaping technique for efficient payload swing control of a tower crane with cable length variations. Artificial neural network is utilized to design a zero vibration derivative shaper that can be updated according to different cable lengths as the natural frequency and damping ratio of the system changes. Unlike the conventional input shapers that are designed based on a fixed frequency, the proposed technique can predict and update the optimal shaper parameters according to the new cable length and natural frequency. Performance of the proposed technique is evaluated by conducting experiments on a laboratory tower crane with cable length variations and under simultaneous tangential and radial crane motions. The shaper is shown to be robust and provides low payload oscillation with up to 40% variations in the natural frequency. With a 40% decrease in the natural frequency, the superiority of the artificial neural network–zero vibration derivative shaper is confirmed by achieving at least a 50% reduction in the overall and residual payload oscillations when compared to the robust zero vibration derivative and extra insensitive shapers designed based on the average operating frequency. It is envisaged that the proposed shaper can be further utilized for control of tower cranes with more parameter uncertainties.

By using balancing balls constrained to move in a circular groove filled with oil, the vibration of rotating machinery can, under certain circumstances, be reduced. This paper shows that the damping from the oil reduces the instability region, i.e., the conditions when the balancing balls don’t find their equilibrium positions. However, the instability region seems to increase with increasing number of balancing balls. The critical ball damping ratio is highest just above the natural frequency and then rapidly decreases. Consequently, since the region between instability and critical damping is quite small, the ball damping should be made as small as possible without getting too close to the instability threshold. Bearing damping has a large effect on the instability region. High bearing damping will suppress the instability. The time it takes to reach the asymptotically stable position seems to increase with increasing number of balls. Keeping this time low is one of the most important things when designing a balancing ring.
