FREQUENCY-ANALYSIS OF CORNER POINT SUPPORTED MINDLIN PLATES BY A FINITE-DIFFERENCE ENERGY METHOD

AKSU, G

The first known solution of the title problem is presented. A method based on the variational procedure in conjunction with a finite difference method is used to examine the free vibration characteristics. Numerical studies show that the convergence is relatively slow, requiring a finer mesh model. In view of the symmetry of the geometry of the plate and the symmetry in the distribution of the point supports, only one-quarter of the plate is examined. Three mode types are developed to account for the full plate. Detailed results are given for the frequencies and mode shapes of the first six modes of each symmetry class, and the effect of transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia is analyzed. The validity of the results is partially demonstrated by comparing them with existing solutions based on the classical thin plate theory.

Vibrations of open-section channels: A coupled flexural and torsional wave analysis
Yaman, Yavuz (Elsevier BV, 1997-07-03)
An exact analytical method is presented for the analysis of forced vibrations of uniform, open-section channels. The centroid and the shear center of the channel cross-sections considered do not coincide; hence the flexural and the torsional vibrations are coupled. In the context of this study, the type of any existing coupling is defined in terms of the independent motions which are coupled through mass and/or stiffness terms. Hence, if the flexural vibrations in one direction are coupled with the torsiona...
Inverse dynamics control of constrained robots in the presence of joint flexibility
Ider, SK (Elsevier BV, 1999-07-29)
An inverse dynamics control algorithm for constrained flexible-joint robots is developed. It is shown that in a flexible-joint robot, the acceleration level inverse dynamic equations are singular because of the elastic media. Implicit numerical integration methods that account for the higher order derivative information are utilized for solving the singular set of differential equations. The control law proposed linearizes and decouples the system and achieves simultaneous and asymptotically stable trajecto...
Transient wave propagation in a viscoelastic layered composite—An approximate theory
Birlik, Gülin A.; Mengi, Yalçın (Elsevier BV, 1987-2)
The approximate theory proposed in reference [1] for viscoelastic layered composites is appraised by applying it to a transient wave propagation problem. The problem involves a viscoelastic slab subjected at one end to a dynamic pressure which has either step or trapezoidal variation in time while its other end is kept fixed. The faces of the slab are parallel to the layering. For the case in which the composite material is elastic, which can be obtained from viscoelastic case when viscous terms vanish, the...
One-dimensional dynamic microslip friction model
Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Menq, Ch (Elsevier BV, 2006-05-09)
A one-dimensional dynamic microslip friction model, including the damper inertia, is presented in this paper. An analytical approach is developed to obtain the steady-state solution of the resulting nonlinear partial differential equations when subjected to harmonic excitation. In the proposed approach, according to the excitation frequency, a single mode of the system is considered in the steady-state solution for simplicity; consequently, phase difference among spatially distributed points is neglected. T...
Error analysis and feasibility study of dynamic stiffness matrix-based damping matrix identification
Özgen, Gökhan Osman (Elsevier BV, 2009-02-06)
Developing a method to formulate a damping matrix that represents the actual spatial distribution and mechanism of damping of the dynamic system has been an elusive goal. The dynamic stiffness matrix (DSM)-based damping identification method proposed by Lee and Kim is attractive and promising because it identifies the damping matrix from the measured DSM without relying on any unfounded assumptions. However, in ensuing works it was found that damping matrices identified from the method had unexpected forms ...
