In this paper, a symmetrically coated damping structure for entangled metallic wire materials (EMWM) of pipelines was designed to reduce the vibration of high temperature (300 °C) pipeline. A series of energy dissipation tests were carried out on the symmetrically coated damping structure at 20–300 °C. Based on the energy dissipation test results, the hysteresis loop was drawn. The effects of temperature, vibration amplitude, frequency, and density of EMWM on the energy dissipation characteristics of coated damping structures were investigated. A nonlinear energy dissipation model of the symmetrically coated damping structure with temperature parameters was established through the accurate decomposition of the hysteresis loop. The parameters of the nonlinear model were identified by the least square method. The energy dissipation test results show that the symmetrically coated damping structure for EMWM of pipelines had excellent and stable damping properties, and the established model could well describe the changing law of the restoring force and displacement of the symmetrically coated damping structure with amplitude, frequency, density, and ambient temperature. It is possible to reduce the vibration of pipelines in a wider temperature range by replacing different metal wires.
Entangled metallic wire material (EMWM) is a kind of porous damping material. To promote the engineering application of EMWM, it is necessary to establish the constitutive model of EMWM to estimate its mechanical properties. In this paper, a series of quasi-static compression experiments for plate-like EMWM specimens made of austenitic stainless steel wire (06Cr19Ni10) with different densities were carried out in the temperature range of 20–500 °C. It was found that the stiffness of the plate-like EMWM would increase with the increases in the ambient temperature. The non-linear characteristics of the force–displacement curve of the plate-like EMWM would be weakened. Taking the spatial structural characteristics of the plate-like EMWM and the influence of the thermal expansion of the structure into account, a new constitutive model for plate-like EMWM was presented by the combination of the Johnson–Cook model and the Sherwood–Frost constitutive framework model. The accuracy of the model was verified by the experimental data under different temperatures. The results show that the calculated results of the model are consistent with the experimental results. This model can provide an effective theoretical basis for predicting the mechanical properties of plate-like EMWM and guiding its design.
When the submarine is sailing at full speed, the power cabin has an abnormally high temperature. However, in the previous research on the vibration reduction design of the foundation, the influence of high temperature on the vibration characteristics of the foundation is not taken into account. In this paper, a new composite foundation with entangled metallic wire material (EMWM) is presented to reduce the vibration of the foundation. The energy transfer path of the foundation was obtained by the power flow method, and then the layout of EMWM was determined. The optimization of the constraining layer was carried out by modal analysis. The damping performance of the composite foundation with EMWM was validated by the thermal-vibration joint test. The results show that, at room temperature, the composite foundation has remarkable vibration reduction efficiency in the middle and high-frequency bands. The maximum insertion loss can reach 15.37 dB. The insertion loss varies with the location of the excitation point. As the temperature rises to 300°C, the insertion loss in the low-frequency band was improved, and the insertion loss is not influenced by the excitation position.
