Subharmonic response of single-degree-of-freedom linear vibroimpact system to narrow-band random excitation

Abstract

The subharmonic response of a single-degree-of-freedom linear vibroimpact oscillator with a one-sided barrier to the narrow-band random excitation is investigated. The analysis is based on a special Zhuravlev transformation, which reduces the system to the one without impacts or velocity jumps, and thereby permits the applications of asymptotic averaging over the period for slowly varying the inphase and quadrature responses. The averaged stochastic equations are exactly solved by the method of moments for the mean square response amplitude for the case of zero offset. A perturbation-based moment closure scheme is proposed for the case of nonzero offset. The effects of damping, detuning, and bandwidth and magnitudes of the random excitations are analyzed. The theoretical analyses are verified by the numerical results. The theoretical analyses and numerical simulations show that the peak amplitudes can be strongly reduced at the large detunings.

Perturbation methods in evolutionary spectral analysis for linear dynamics and equivalent statistical linearization

“…After recasting (63) into a state space formalism, the time evolution of the covariance matrix Σ z is described with a Lyapunov equation by invoking Itô's lemma [47], such that The application of the multiple scales technique [32,43], widely used for decades in mechanics [40,21,57,17], and in random dynamics [53,3], looks perfectly appropriate, since an analysis of the different regimes is mandatory at this step. A convenient way to sort the timescales is to introduce a distinction between the fast timescale t f and the slow timescale t s .…”

Nonlinear vibration control of functionally graded material beam coupled with NiTiNOL–steel wire ropes

“…The nonlinearity of structures can cause complex dynamic responses such as super-harmonic response (Permoon et al, 2018; Wu et al, 2019), subharmonic response (Rong et al, 2011), and soft and hard nonlinearity (Guo et al, 2022b; Han et al, 2021). It is worth noting that unstable closed detached response (CDR) branches may be introduced owing to the nonlinearity in the vibration control of the system (Habib et al, 2017; Zang et al, 2018).…”
