NONLINEAR BENDING OF CORRUGATED DIAPHRAGM WITH LARGE BOUNDARY CORRUGATION UNDER COMPOUND LOAD

By using the simplified Reissner's equation of axisymmetric shells of revolution, the nonlinear bending of a corrugated annular plate with a large boundary corrugation and a nondeformable rigid body at the center under compound load are investigated. The nonlinear boundary value problem of the corrugated diaphragm reduces to the nonlinear integral equations by applying the method of Green's function. To solve the integral equations, a so_called interpolated parameter important to prevent divergence is introduced into the iterative format. Computation shows that when loads are small, any value of interpolated parameter can assure the convergence of iteration. Interpolated parameter equal or almost equal to 1 yields a faster convergence rate; when loads are large, interpolated parameter cannot be taken too large in order to assure convergence. The characteristic curves of the corrugated diaphragm for different load combinations are given. The obtained characteristic curves are available for reference to design. It can be concluded that the deflection is larger when the diaphragm is acted by both uniform load and concentrated load than when it is acted only by uniform load. The solution method can be applied to corrugated shells of arbitrary diametral sections.

Ultra-high sensitivity fiber optic microphone with corrugated graphene-oxide diaphragm for voice recognition

To avoid interference from unexpected background noises and obtain high fidelity voice signal,acoustic sensors with high sensitivity,flat frequency response,and high signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)are urgently needed for voice recognition.Grapheneoxide(GO)has received extensive attention due to its advantages of controllable thickness and high fracture strength.However,low mechanical sensitivity(SM)introduced by undesirable initial stress limits the performance of GO material in the field of voice recognition.To alleviate the aforementioned issue,GO diaphragm with annular corrugations is proposed.By means of the reusable copper mold machined by picosecond laser,the fabrication and transfer of corrugated GO diaphragm are realized,thus achieving a Fabry–Perot(F–P)acoustic sensor.Benefitting from the structural advantage of the corrugated GO diaphragm,our F–P acoustic sensor exhibits high S_(M)(43.70 nm/Pa@17 kHz),flat frequency response(−3.2 to 3.7 dB within 300–3500 Hz),and high SNR(76.66 dB@1 kHz).In addition,further acoustic measurements also demonstrate other merits,including an excellent frequency detection resolution(0.01 Hz)and high time stability(output relative variation less than 6.7% for 90 min).Given the merits presented before,the fabricated F–P acoustic sensor with corrugated GO diaphragm can serve as a high-fidelity platform for acoustic detection and voice recognition.In conjunction with the deep residual learning framework,high recognition accuracy of 98.4%is achieved by training and testing the data recorded by the fabricated F–P acoustic sensor.
