A passive vibration mitigation architecture is proposed to damp transverse vibrations of guyed masts. The scheme is based on a number of pendula attached to the mast and tuned to the vibration modes to be controlled. This scheme differs from the well-known autoparametric pendulum absorber system. The equations of motion of the guyed mast with an arbitrary number of pendula are obtained. The leading bending behaviour of a typical truss mast is described by an equivalent beam model whereas the guys are conveniently modeled as equivalent transverse springs whose stiffness comprises the elastic and geometric stiffness. By assuming a mast with an inertially and elastically isotropic cross-section, a planar model of the guyed mast is investigated. The linearization of the equations of motion of the mast subject to a harmonic distributed force leads to the transfer functions of the structure without the dampers and with the dampers. The transfer functions allow to investigate the mitigation effects of the pendula. By employing one pendulum only, tuned to the frequency of the lowest mode, the effectiveness of the passive vibration potential in reducing the motion and acceleration of the top section of the mast is demonstrated.

Due to increasing ship dimensions and installed propulsive power, resonance frequencies of the propeller shaft system tend to decrease and they can appear in some cases within the operating range of the shaft revolution. For calculation of transverse shaft vibrations, various methods have been proposed but as they are mainly for approximate calculation, no contented results are obtained. For fairly accurate estimation of resonance frequencies in the design stage, one can use transfer matrix method of the finite element method and former is rather prefered in ordinary cases. In this study, the finite element method which is utilized for calculation of the propulsion shaft alignment, is introduced to derive the vibration equation of the ship's propulsion shaftings. The digital computer program is developed to solve the above equation, and the details of preparing the input data are described. The method presented in the underlying report was applied to the shafting of ship which has a lignumvitae bearing to verify its reliability and the results of calculation and those of the measurements on rotating shaft show a good agreement. Calculating methods of exciting of forces and damping forces are also discussed for future work.

A new hybrid quasi-3D and 2D high-order shear deformation theory is studied in this mathematical formulation, for an investigation of the bending, free vibrations and buckling influences on a functionally graded material plate. The theoretical formulation has been begun by a displacement field of five unknowns, governing the transverse displacement across the thickness of the plate by bending, shearing and stretching. The transverse shear deformation effect has been taken into consideration, satisfying the stress-free boundary conditions, especially on plate free surfaces as parabolic variation through its thickness. Thus, the mechanical properties of the functionally graded plate vary across the plate thickness, following three distributions forms: the power law, exponential form and the Mori-Tanaka scheme. The mechanical properties are used to develop the equations of motion, obtained from the Hamilton principle, and solved by applying the Navier-type solution for simply supported boundary conditions. The results obtained are compared with other solutions of 2D, 3D and quasi-3D plate theories have been found in the literature.

In the context of finite element method, a computational simulation is presented to study and analyze the dynamic behavior of regularly perforated functionally graded rotating beam for the first time. To investigate the effect of perforation configurations, both regular circular and squared perforation patterns are studied. To explore impacts of graded material distributions, both axial and transverse gradation profiles are considered. The material characteristics of graded materials are assumed to be smoothly and continuously varied through the axial or the thickness direction according the nonlinear power gradation law. A computational finite elements procedure is presented. The accuracy of the numerical procedure is verified and compared. Resonant frequencies, axial displacements as well as internal stress distributions throughout the perforated graded rotating cantilever beam are studied. Effects of material distributions, perforation patterns, as well as the rotating beam speed are investigated. Obtained results proved that the graded material distribution has remarkable effects on the dynamic performance. Additionally, circular perforation pattern produces more softening effect compared with squared perforation configuration thus larger values of axial displacements and maximum principal stresses are detected. Moreover, squared perforation provides smaller values of nondimensional frequency parameters at most of vibration modes compared with circular pattern.

다양한 형태의 선체 진동 중, 선체 선미 및 거주구의 횡방향 진동은 대부분 주기관의 횡기진력으로부터 유발되는데, 주기관과 연결된 주변 구조물과의 공진이 발생 할 수 있으므로 공진회피 설계가 반드시 필요하다. 공진 회피를 위한 가진 주파수는 주기관 및 프로펠러 사양으로부터 추정 가능하나, 기관실 주변 구조물의 고유 진동수는 형상의 다양성 등에 의해 추정이 쉽지 않고 경험을 위주로 한 방진 설계가 수행되고 있는 현실이며, 이로 인해 시운전 중에 발생하는 진동 문제는 공정지연, 현장 인력의 과다 투입 및 설계의 반복 수행 등 많은 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 본 연구에서는8,600TEU급 컨테이너선을 대상으로 유연한 설계를 위해 선체 구조배치의 변경 없이 주기관만 12기통에서 10기통으로 변경하는 경우에 대해 주기관 횡진동에 의한 공진 문제를 다루었다. 연구 결과로서, 주기관 횡기진력과 기관실 주변 구조와의 공진 회피를 위한 효율적인 구조보강 설계지침을 제시하였으며, 설계 현장의 실제적인 방진설계 지침으로 활용이 기대된다.

In this paper, an active vibration control of a tensioned, elastic, axially moving string is investigated. The dynamics of the translating string are described with a non-linear partial differential equation coupled with an ordinary differential equation. A right boundary control to suppress the transverse vibrations of the translating continuum is proposed. The control law is derived via the Lyapunov second method. The exponential stability of the closed-loop system is verified. The effectiveness of the proposed control law is simulated.

The cracks are modeled by massless substitute spring. The effects of the crack location, size and its number and the foundation constants, on the natural frequencies of the beam, are investigated.

Practicing a hole or an orifice through a plate or a slab constitutes a very frequent engineering situation due to operational reasons imposed on the structural system. From a designer's viewpoint it is important to know the effect of this modification of the mechanical system upon its elastodynamic characteristics. The present study deals with the determination of the lower natural frequencies of the structural element described in the title of the paper using a variational approach and expressing the displacement amplitude of the plate in terms of the double Fourier series which constitutes the classical, exact solution when the structure is simply supported at its four edges.

In this paper, we proposed a two-stage control of the container crane. The first stage control is time-optimal control for the purpose of fast trolley traveling. With suitable trolley velocity patterns, the sway which is generated during trolley moving is minimized. At the second stage control feedback control law is investigated for the quick suppression of residual vibration after the trolley motion. For more practical system, the container crane system is modeled as a partial differential equation (PDE) system with flexible cable. The dynamics of the cable is derived as a moving system with tension caused by payload using Hamilton's principle for the systems. A control law based upon the Lyapunov's method is derived. It is revealed that a time-varying control force and a suitable passive damping at the actuator can successfully suppress the transverse vibrations.

The free vibration characteristics of fluid-filled cylindrical shells on partial elastic foundations are investigated by an analytical method. The cylindrical shell is fully or partially surrounded by the elastic foundations, these are represented by the Winkler or Pasternak model. The motion of shell is represented by the first order shear deformation theory to account for rotary inertia and transverse shear strains. The steady flow of fluid is described by the classical potential flow theory. The fluid-structure interaction is considered in the analysis. The effect of internal fluid can be considered by imposing a relation between the fluid pressure and the radial displacement of the structure at the interface. To validate the present method, the numerical example is presented and compared with the available existing results.
