Nonlinear vibration behavior of beam is an important issue of structural engineering. In this study, a mathematical modeling of a forced nonlinear vibration of Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on nonlinear elastic foundation is presented. The nonlinear vibration behavior of the beam is investigated by using a modified multi-level residue harmonic balance method. The main advantage of the method is ...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To observe blood perfusion and vascular permeability changes under varying vibration frequency exposures. STUDY DESIGN Animal model. METHODS Blood perfusion was measured using laser Doppler flowmetry in eight rabbit auricular vessels (four rabbits) under nonvibration, and 62.5-Hz/1-mm, 125-Hz/1-mm, and 250-Hz/0.5-mm vibration frequency/amplitude exposures. Another 12 r...

With the trend of lighter vehicle and more powerful engine (power plant) passengers are subjected to large vibration and harshness coming from the engine through the chassis. This paper discusses the application of active vibration control to reduce this vibration effect. Using a mass-spring-damper model which represents a passive engine mount, dynamic characteristic of the mount is obtained fo...

We examined, noninvasively, the response of the left ventricular (LV) wall to precordially applied vibration in seven normal subjects. The LV posterobasal wall vibration was detected by an esophageal vibration sensor. Even though the amplitude of input vibration was maintained at a constant level, a sharp change in amplitude of the LV wall vibration was observed during the cardiac cycle, especi...

The present paper investigates the potential application of graphene sheets with attached nanoparticles as resonant sensors by introducing a nonlocal shear deformation plate model. To take into account an elastic connection between the nanoplate and the attached nanoparticle, the nanoparticle is considered as a mass-spring system. Then, a combination of pseudo-spectral and integral quadrature m...

In the present study, the analysis of nonlinear vibration for a simply-supported flexible beam with a constant velocity carrying a moving mass is studied. The amplitude of vibration assumed high and its deformation rate is assumed slow. Due to the high amplitude of vibrations, stretching is created in mid-plane, resulting in, the nonlinear strain-displacement relations is obtained, Thus, Nonlin...

Squeeze Film Dampers (SFD) are commonly used for passive vibration control of rotor-bearing systems. The Magnetorheological (MR) and Electrorheological (ER) fluids in SFDs give a varying damping characteristic to the bearing that can provide active control schemes for the rotor-bearing system. A common way to model an MR bearing is implementing the Bingham plastic model. Adding this model to th...

The first accurate measurement of an intermolecular vibration of the water dimer is reported. Five vibration-rotation-tunneling (VRT) bands of the perdeuterated isotope, located near 84 cm-’ , have been assigned to the A 1 /E/B, tunneling components of the K, = O-0 and K, = l-0 subbands. The vibration involves large amplitude motion of the hydrogen bond acceptor and is assigned as the vs accept...
