Book Statistical Energy Analysis

Download or read book Statistical Energy Analysis written by A. J. Keane and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-03-06 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1997 volume provides an overview of statistical energy analysis and its applications in structural vibration. Statistical energy analysis is a powerful method for predicting and analysing the vibrational behaviour of structures. Its main use is for structures that can be considered as assemblies of interconnected subsystems which are subject to medium to high frequency vibration sources. This volume brings together nine articles by experts from around the world. The opening chapter gives an introduction and overview of the technique describing its key successes, potential and limitations. Following chapters look in more detail at a selection of cases and examples which together illustrate the scope and power of the technique. This book is based on a Royal Society Philosophical Transactions issue under the title 'Statistical Energy Analysis', but an extra chapter, by Chohan, Price, Keane and Beshara, discussing nonconservatively coupled systems is included in this edition.

Book Power Flow Analysis of Two Coupled Plates with Arbitrary Characteristics

Download or read book Power Flow Analysis of Two Coupled Plates with Arbitrary Characteristics written by National Aeronautics and Space Adm Nasa and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last progress report (Feb. 1988) some results were presented for a parametric analysis on the vibrational power flow between two coupled plate structures using the mobility power flow approach. The results reported then were for changes in the structural parameters of the two plates, but with the two plates identical in their structural characteristics. Herein, limitation is removed. The vibrational power input and output are evaluated for different values of the structural damping loss factor for the source and receiver plates. In performing this parametric analysis, the source plate characteristics are kept constant. The purpose of this parametric analysis is to determine the most critical parameters that influence the flow of vibrational power from the source plate to the receiver plate. In the case of the structural damping parametric analysis, the influence of changes in the source plate damping is also investigated. The results obtained from the mobility power flow approach are compared to results obtained using a statistical energy analysis (SEA) approach. The significance of the power flow results are discussed together with a discussion and a comparison between the SEA results and the mobility power flow results. Furthermore, the benefits derived from using the mobility power flow approach are examined. Cuschieri, J. M. Unspecified Center NAG1-685; RTOP 535-03-11-03...

Book Energy Flow Theory of Nonlinear Dynamical Systems with Applications

Download or read book Energy Flow Theory of Nonlinear Dynamical Systems with Applications written by Jing Tang Xing and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-05-28 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph develops a generalised energy flow theory to investigate non-linear dynamical systems governed by ordinary differential equations in phase space and often met in various science and engineering fields. Important nonlinear phenomena such as, stabilities, periodical orbits, bifurcations and chaos are tack-led and the corresponding energy flow behaviors are revealed using the proposed energy flow approach. As examples, the common interested nonlinear dynamical systems, such as, Duffing’s oscillator, Van der Pol’s equation, Lorenz attractor, Rössler one and SD oscillator, etc, are discussed. This monograph lights a new energy flow research direction for nonlinear dynamics. A generalised Matlab code with User Manuel is provided for readers to conduct the energy flow analysis of their nonlinear dynamical systems. Throughout the monograph the author continuously returns to some examples in each chapter to illustrate the applications of the discussed theory and approaches. The book can be used as an undergraduate or graduate textbook or a comprehensive source for scientists, researchers and engineers, providing the statement of the art on energy flow or power flow theory and methods.

Book Wave Propagation Approach for Structural Vibration

Download or read book Wave Propagation Approach for Structural Vibration written by Chongjian Wu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-28 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for researchers, graduate students and engineers in the fields of structure-borne sound, structural dynamics, and noise and vibration control. Based on vibration differential equations, it presents equations derived from the exponential function in the time domain, providing a unified framework for structural vibration analysis, which makes it more regular and normalized. This wave propagation approach (WPA) divides structures at “discontinuity points,” and the waves show characteristics of propagation, reflection, attenuation, and waveform conversion. In each segment of the system between two “discontinuity points,” the governing equation and constraint are expressed accurately, allowing the dynamic properties of complex systems to be precisely obtained. Starting with basic structures such as beams and plates, the book then discusses theoretical research on complicated and hybrid dynamical systems, and demonstrates that structural vibration can be analyzed from the perspective of elastic waves by applying WPA.

Book IUTAM Symposium on Statistical Energy Analysis

Download or read book IUTAM Symposium on Statistical Energy Analysis written by F.J. Fahy and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a record of the proceedings of the Symposium on Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA) held at the University of Southampton in July 1997 which was held under the auspices of the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanic~. Theoretical SEA is form of modelling the vibrational and acoustical behaviour of complex mechanical systems which has undergone a long period of gestation before recent maturation into a widely used engineering design and analysis tool which is supported by a rapidly growing supply of commercial software. SEA also provides a framework for associated experimental measurement procedures, data analysis and interpretation. Under the guidance of the members of a distinguished International Scientific Committee, participants were individually invited from the broad spectrum of 'SEAfarers', including academics, consultants, industrial engineers, software developers and research students. The Symposium aimed to reflect the balance of world-wide activity in SEA, although some eminent members of the SEA community were, sadly, unable to attend. In particular, Professor Richard Lyon and Dr Gideon Maidanik, two of the principal originators of SEA, were sorely missed. This publication contains copies of all the papers presented to the Symposium together with a summary of the associated discussions which contains valuable comments upon the contents of the formal papers together with the views of participants on some fundamental issues which remain to be resolved.

Book Toward a Theory of Diffuse Energy Transport in Large Irregular Structures

Download or read book Toward a Theory of Diffuse Energy Transport in Large Irregular Structures written by Nicholas L. Wolff and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We develop a "concatenation ansatz" of energy flow in large, complex structures to predict the response of a nominally diffusive system. The concatenation ansatz is inspired by statistical energy analysis (SEA) which is, in turn, based on an analogy to diffusive heat transfer. Where in heat transfer, thermal energy flows from areas of hot temperature to those of cold temperature, in SEA vibrational or acoustic energy is assumed to flow from structures or volumes with high energy density to those with low energy density. The word "ansatz" refers to a "starting assumption." Here we make the ansatz that transport of diffuse vibrational energy over short-time intervals contains all information needed for estimates of energy flow over long times, and that these estimates can be extracted by concatenating successive copies of transport over short-time intervals. Though not based directly on an assumption of diffusion, the ansatz contains the same phase-neglecting principle as SEA and implies a diffusion limit equivalent to SEA. In this thesis, the concatenation ansatz is tested on various benchmark systems, some typically studied using SEA, other not. We carry out direct numerical simulation (DNS) in the time domain using finite-difference and finite-element methods. We study two- and three-room systems with rooms connected by a window allowing energy to flow between them. We study a torus, a single statistically homogenous structure, which cannot be studied by SEA. We also study plates coupled by springs allowing energy to flow between the plates. This type of system is of interest to the structures community. Finally, we study an interesting "hybrid" system consisting of two coupled systems. One system would typically be studied statistically in a framework such as SEA. The other system, not satisfying the assumptions of SEA, would typically be studied deterministically in a framework such as finite-element analysis.

Book Computational Acoustics of Noise Propagation in Fluids   Finite and Boundary Element Methods

Download or read book Computational Acoustics of Noise Propagation in Fluids Finite and Boundary Element Methods written by Steffen Marburg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-27 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a survey of numerical methods for acoustics, namely the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). It is the first book summarizing FEM and BEM (and optimization) for acoustics. The book shows that both methods can be effectively used for many other cases, FEM even for open domains and BEM for closed ones. Emphasis of the book is put on numerical aspects and on treatment of the exterior problem in acoustics, i.e. noise radiation.

Book Sound and Structural Vibration

Download or read book Sound and Structural Vibration written by Frank J. Fahy and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a unified qualitative and quantitative account of the physical mechanisms and characteristics of linear interaction between audio-frequency vibrational motion in compressible fluids and structures with which they are in contact. The primary purpose is to instruct the reader in theoretical approaches to the modelling and analysis of interactions, whilst simultaneously providing physical explanations of their dependence upon the parameters of the coupled systems. It is primarily to the engineering student that the book is addressed, in the firm belief that a good engineer remains a student throughout his professional life. A preoccupation with the relevance and validity of theoretical analyses in relation to practical problems is a hallmark of results obtained from theoretical analysis of idealized models and the behaviour of the less than ideal realities from which they are abstracted.
