TL;DR: In this paper, the out-of-plane dynamic instability of elastic shallow circular arches under an in-plane central concentrated periodic load owing to parametric resonance was investigated and the analytical solutions of the critical excitation frequencies of the concentrated periodic loads were obtained.
Abstract: Little research about the out-of-plane dynamic stability of arches under in-plane loading has been reported in the literature hitherto. This paper presents analytical and experimental investigations of the out-of-plane dynamic instability of elastic shallow circular arches under an in-plane central concentrated periodic load owing to parametric resonance. Differential equations of out-of-plane motion of shallow arches are established using the Hamilton principle by accounting for the effects of geometric nonlinearity, additional concentrated weights and damping. The analytical solutions of the critical excitation frequencies of the concentrated periodic load for out-of-plane dynamic instability of arches are obtained. The corresponding experimental investigations are also carried out to verify the analytical solutions. Agreements between the analytical and experimental results are very good. In addition, the effects of the central concentrated weight and the in-plane excitation amplitude on out-of-plane dynamic instability of arches are investigated. It is found that as the weight increases, the bandwidth of the critical in-plane excitation frequencies for out-of-plane dynamic instability of the arch decreases. It is also found that the bandwidth of critical frequencies increases with an increase in the excitation amplitude. Furthermore, the nonlinear inertial force is derived, which is essential in determining the out-of-plane parametric resonance. It is shown that the curve of the excitation frequency versus amplitude of out-of-plane vibration bends toward the low-frequency region and that the “traction” out-of-plane instability may occur owing to “amplitude” perturbation. To authors’ knowledge, the analytical solutions and experimental investigations for out-of-plane dynamic instability of arches owing to parametric resonance presented in the paper are first time reported in the literature. The new findings in the paper can provide an in-depth understanding of out-of-plane dynamic instability behavior of arches under a periodic load.

TL;DR: A theory of two-mode phase-sensitive amplification by a three-level atomic system in the cascade configuration is presented, within the framework of the theory of multiwave mixing.
Abstract: A theory of two-mode phase-sensitive amplification by a three-level atomic system in the cascade configuration is presented, within the framework of the theory of multiwave mixing. Two photons of a strong external pump field induce coherence between the top and bottom levels. It is shown that both quadratures of the field modes acquire unequal gain and added noise. For large values of the dimensionless pump intensity, with a particular choice of its phase, and zero side-mode detuning, the system behaves as a nondegenerate parametric amplifier.

TL;DR: In this article, the response of a single-degree-of-freedom shape memory oscillator subjected to the excitation harmonic has been investigated, assuming a polynomial constitutive model to describe the restitution force of the oscillator.
Abstract: In this work, the response of a single-degree-of-freedom shape memory oscillator subjected to the excitation harmonic has been investigated. Equation of motion is formulated assuming a polynomial constitutive model to describe the restitution force of the oscillator. Here the method of multiple scales is used to obtain an approximate solution to the equations of the motion describing the modulation equations of amplitude and phase, and to investigate theoretically its stability. This work is presented in two parts. In Part I of this study we showed the modeling of the problem where the free vibration of the oscillator at low temperature is analyzed, where martensitic phase is stable. Part I also presents the investigation dynamics of the primary resonance of the pseudoelastic oscillator. Part II of the work is focused on the study in the secondary resonance of a pseudoelastic oscillator using the model developed in Part I. The analysis of the system in Part I as well as in Part II is accomplished numerically by means of phase portraits, Lyapunov exponents, power spectrum and Poincare maps. Frequency-response curves are constructed for shape memory oscillators for various excitation levels and detuning parameter. A rich class of solutions and bifurcations, including jump phenomena and saddle-node bifurcations, is found.
