In this paper, we study exponential stabilization of the vibrations of the Kelvin-Voigt type wave equation with Balakrishnan-Taylor damping and acoustic boundary in a bounded domain in $R^n$. To stabilize the systems, we incorporate separately, the internal material damping in the model as like Kang [3]. Energy decay rate are obtained by the exponential stability of solutions by using multiplier technique.

In this paper, we study uniform exponential stabilization of the vibrations of the Kelvin-Voigt type wave equation with acoustic boundary in a bounded domain in $R^n$. To stabilize the systems, we incorporate separately, the internal material damping in the model as like Gannesh C. Gorain [1]. Energy decay rates are obtained by the exponential stability of solutions by using multiplier technique.

Soil foundations exhibit significant creeping deformation, which may result in excessive settlement and failure of superstructures. Based on the theory of viscoelasticity and fractional calculus, a fractional Kelvin-Voigt model is proposed to account for the time-dependent behavior of soil foundation under vertical line load. Analytical solution of settlements in the foundation was derived using Laplace transforms. The influence of the model parameters on the time-dependent settlement is studied through a parametric study. Results indicate that the settlement-time relationship can be accurately captured by varying values of the fractional order of differential operator and the coefficient of viscosity. In comparison with the classical Kelvin-Voigt model, the fractional model can provide a more accurate prediction of long-term settlements of soil foundation. The determination of influential distance also affects the calculation of settlements.

In multibody dynamic analysis including contact and impact, there are two major analysis methods, i.e., piecewise analysis and continuous analysis. Modeling of contact phenomena is mainly classified with a Kelvin-Voigt model or a model of Hertz contact model. In this paper, a contact module fur AutoDyn7 program was developed and implemented. Both the Kelvin-Voigt model and a model of Hertz contact law were developed. The process of this module is composed of contact distinction and the contact force calculation. Two examples were verified and compared to the commercial program DADS.

In the paper, a fractional derivative Kelvin-Voigt model describing the dynamic behavior of a special class of fluid viscous dampers, is presented. First of all, in order to verify their mechanical properties, two devices were tested the former behaving as a pure damper (PD device), whereas the latter as an elastic-damping device (ED device). For both, quasi-static and dynamic tests were carried out under imposed displacement control. Secondarily, in order to describe their cyclical behavior, a model composed by an elastic and a damping element connected in parallel was defined. The elastic force was assumed as a linear function of the displacement whereas the damping one was expressed by a fractional derivative of the displacement. By setting an appropriate numerical algorithm, the model parameters (fractional derivative order, damping coefficient and elastic stiffness) were identified by experimental results. The estimated values allowed to outline the main parameter properties on which depend both the elastic as well as the damping behavior of the considered devices.

지진하중으로 인해 교량상부구조 간에 발생하는 충돌은 교량상부구조의 낙교, 교각의 파괴와 같은 국부적인 손상뿐만 아니라 교량전체시스템의 붕괴를 유발할 수 있다. 이와 같은 충돌의 영향은 신축이음부의 재질, 형태 및 교대부의 여유간격과 관계가 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 교량상부구조 간에 발생하는 충돌에 대한 특성을 분석하기 위해 충돌해석 이론 중 가장 널리 활용되고 있는 접합요소 접근법(Linear Spring Model, Kelvin-Voigt Model, Hertz Model)에 대해서 고찰 하고 이를 실험적으로 검증하기 위해 탄성받침이 설치된 교량상부구조를 모형화한 콘크리트 교량모델에 대한 진동대 실험을 실시하였다. 기존의 충돌모델을 적용한 이론 해는 실험결과와 잘 부합되지 못하였으며, 이에 본 논문에서는 충돌강성에 적절한 적용계수 �� 를 이용하여 충돌 후 거동을 잘 모사할 수 있는 충돌강성 수준을 산출하였다. 충돌발생시 적절한 강성 및 재료의 동적특성, 충돌면의 형상 등에 따라 발생하는 충돌력의 크기가 달라지므로 이에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

Experimental and numerical study was done to confirm the effect of the flexible tube in pipeline on transient flow oscillation. Experiment was made for a pipeline with and without deformable flexible tube using a single pumping system of main stainless pipe. The wave speeds of main pipe and flexible tube were calculated from the pipe material properties, structures, and boundary conditions. Time dependent pressure fluctuations were calculated for the pipeline using the simple and the Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic models for the deformation of main pipe and flexible tube. Pressure calculated by the Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic model showed better agreement with measured one than pressure by the simple model. Experimental and numerical results show that the maximum pressure as well as amplitude of pressure oscillation was decreased by inserting short flexible tube in pipeline. Hence, inserted short flexible tube to pipeline was found to be effective for the suppression of strong pressure oscillation. Moreover, the wave speed in pipe was discussed based on numerical and experimental results.

We consider a mathematical model which describes the quasistatic contact of electro-viscoelastic rod with an obstacle. We use a modified Kelvin-Voigt viscoelastic constitutive law in which the elasticity operator is nonlinear and locally Lipschitz continuous, taking into account the piezoelectric effect of the material. We model the contact with a general damped response condition. We establish a local existence and uniqueness result of the solution by using arguments of time-dependent nonlinear equations and Schauder's fixed-point theorem and obtain a global existence for small enough data.

The present study deals with the dynamics of the flapwise (out-of-plane) vibrations of a rotating, internally damped (Kelvin-Voigt model) tapered Bernoulli-Euler beam carrying a heavy tip mass. The centroid of the tip mass is offset from the free end of the beam and is located along its extended axis. The equation of motion and the corresponding boundary conditions are derived via the Hamilton's Principle, leading to a differential eigenvalue problem. Afterwards, this eigenvalue problem is solved by using Frobenius Method of solution in power series. The resulting characteristic equation is then solved numerically. The numerical results are tabulated for a variety of nondimensional rotational speed, tip mass, tip mass offset, mass moment of inertia, internal damping parameter, hub radius and taper ratio. These are compared with the results of a conventional finite element modeling as well, and excellent agreement is obtained.

In order to lessen cable vibration, new cable damper system with high damping rubber was developed using the basis of the LRB design scheme. The analysis model of cable damper system incorporate voigt-kelvin damper model into the nonlinear cable analysis model. To achieve maximum damping capacity both reducing damper stiffness and developing high damping rubber were performed. As a result of verification test, the high damping rubber damper show its effectiveness in improving cable damping capacity.
