Vibro-acoustic behavior of a multilayered viscoelastic sandwich plate under a thermal environment:

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present numerical simulation studies on the vibration and acoustic response characteristics of a multilayered viscoelastic sandwich plate in a thermal environment, where the critical buckling temperature and vibration response were obtained using finite element method while sound radiation characteristics are obtained using boundary element method.
Abstract: This article presents numerical simulation studies on the vibration and acoustic response characteristics of a multilayered viscoelastic sandwich plate in a thermal environment. Initially the critical buckling temperature is obtained followed by free and forced vibration analyses considering the pre-stress due to the imposed thermal environment in the plate. The vibration response predicted is then used to compute the sound radiation. The critical buckling temperature and vibration response are obtained using finite element method while sound radiation characteristics are obtained using boundary element method. It is found that resonant amplitude of both the vibration and acoustic response decreases with increase in temperature. The influence of core thickness, number of layers, type of thermal field, and type of viscoelastic core material on vibration response sound radiation characteristics are studied in detail.

TL;DR: In this paper, the buckling analysis, free vibration, and flexure of clamped laminated composite plates (CLCP) in the variable thermal environment through finite elements (FE) method is presented.
Abstract: This paper represents the buckling analysis, free vibration, and flexure of clamped laminated composite plates (CLCP) in the variable thermal environment through finite elements (FE) method. The midplane kinematics of CLCP has been simulated applying commercial accessible FE tool (ABAQUS) in the outline of the FSDT (first-order shear deformation theory). Firstly, validation of the current problem is accomplished by equating the current buckling temperature and natural frequenc values with the existing benchmark results. Then, the effect of variable thermal environment on the buckling temperature, natural frequencies, and flexural analysis of CLCP are compared by solving suitable numerical problems and their results are represented graphically and in the form of tables.

TL;DR: Based on von Karman nonlinear strain-displacement relationships and classical thin plate theory, a list of nonlinear dynamic equilibrium equations for a viscoelastic composite material thin narrow strip under thermal and mechanic loads are deduced in this paper.
Abstract: Based on von Karman nonlinear strain-displacement relationships and classical thin plate theory, a list of nonlinear dynamic equilibrium equations for a viscoelastic composite material thin narrow strip under thermal and mechanic loads are deduced. According to the material constitutive relationship and the relaxation modulus in the form of the Prony series, combing with the Newmark method and the Newton-cotes integration method, a new numerical algorithm for direct solving the whole problem in the time domain is established. By applying this numerical algorithm, the viscoelastic composite material thin narrow strip as the research subject is analyzed systematically, and its rich dynamical behaviors are revealed comprehensively. To verify the accuracy of the present work, a comparison is made with previously published results. Finally, the viscoelastic composite material thin narrow strip under harmonic excitation load and impact load are discussed in detail, and many valuable thermoviscoelastic dynamic characteristics are revealed.

TL;DR: In this article, an efficient method for finite element modeling of three-layer laminates containing a viscoelastic layer is described, and modal damping ratios are estimated from undamped normal mode results by means of the modal strain energy method.
Abstract: An efficient method is described for finite element modelling of three-layer laminates containing a viscoelastic layer. Modal damping ratios are estimated from undamped normal mode results by means of the modal strain energy method. Comparisons are given between results obtained by the MSE method implemented in NASTRAN, by various exact solutions for approximate governing differential equations, and by experiment. Results are in terms of frequencies, modal damping ratios, and mechanical admittances for simple beams, plates, and rings. Application of the finite element -- MSE method in design of integrally damped structures is discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors re-examined the definition of loss factor in terms of energy quantities, particularly as it applies to composite viscoelastic systems, and proposed simple relations which express the loss factors of series-parallel arrays of massless VRSs.
Abstract: The definition of loss factor in terms of energy quantities is re‐examined, particularly as it applies to composite viscoelastic systems. A restatement of this definition in terms of a corresponding viscoelastic spring is used to show that this definition is extremely useful for massless (ideal viscoelastic spring) systems, but may be applied unambiguously to spring systems with a single attached mass only at resonance. Simple relations are presented which express the loss factors of series‐parallel arrays of massless viscoelastic springs in terms of properties of the individual components. Implications of these relations in damping of composite structures are discussed. (This work was supported in part by the Aeronautical Systems Division, U. S. Air Force.)
