The chaotic dynamic snap-through and complex nonlinear vibrations are investigated in a rectangular asymmetric cross-ply bistable composite laminated cantilever shell,in cases of 1:2 inter-well internal resonance and primary resonance.The transverse foundation excitation is applied to the fixed end of the structure,and the other end is in a free state.The first-order approximate multiple scales method is employed to perform the perturbation analysis on the dimensionless two-degree-of-freedom ordinary differential motion control equation.The four-dimensional averaged equations are derived in both polar and rectangular coordinate forms.Deriving from the obtained frequency-amplitude and force-amplitude response curves,a detailed analysis is conducted to examine the impacts of excitation amplitude,damping coefficient,and tuning parameter on the nonlinear internal resonance characteristics of the system.The nonlinear softening characteristic is exhibited in the upper stable-state,while the lower stable-state demonstrates the softening and linearity characteristics.Numerical simulation is carried out using the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method,and a series of nonlinear response curves are plotted.Increasing the excitation amplitude further elucidates the global bifurcation and chaotic dynamic snap-through characteristics of the bistable cantilever shell.

Primary resonance of traveling viscoelastic beam under internal resonance

Under the 3：1 internal resonance condition, the steady-state periodic response of the forced vibration of a traveling viscoelastic beam is studied. The viscoelastic behaviors of the traveling beam are described by the standard linear solid model, and the material time derivative is adopted in the viscoelastic constitutive relation. The direct multi-scale method is used to derive the relationships between the excitation frequency and the response amplitudes. For the first time, the real modal functions are employed to analytically investigate the periodic response of the axially traveling beam. The unde- termined coefficient method is used to approximately establish the real modal functions. The approximate analytical results are confirmed by the Galerkin truncation. Numerical examples are presented to highlight the effects of the viscoelastic behaviors on the steady-state periodic responses. To illustrate the effect of the internal resonance, the energy transfer between the internal resonance modes and the saturation-like phenomena in the steady-state responses is presented.

FLOW-INDUCED INTERNAL RESONANCES AND MODE EXCHANGE IN HORIZONTAL CANTILEVERED PIPE CONVEYING FLUID (Ⅱ)

The Newtonian method is employed to obtain nonlinear mathematical model of motion of a horizontally cantilevered and inflexible pipe conveying fluid. The order magnitudes of relevant physical parameters are analyzed qualitatively to establish a foundation on the further study of the model. The method of multiple scales is used to obtain eigenfunctions of the linear free-vibration modes of the pipe. The boundary conditions yield the characteristic equations from which eigenvalues can be derived. It is found that flow velocity in the pipe may induced the 3：1, 2：1 and 1：1 internal resonances between the first and second modes such that the mechanism of flow-induced internal resonances in the pipe under consideration is explained theoretically. The 3：1 internal resonance first occurs in the system and is, thus, the most important since it corresponds to the minimum critical velocity.

Three-to-one internal resonance in multiple stepped beam systems

In this study, the vibrations of multiple stepped beams with cubic nonlinearities are considered. A three-to-one internal resonance case is investigated for the system. A general approximate solution to the problem is found using the method of multiple scales （a perturbation technique）. The modulation equations of the amplitudes and the phases are derived for two modes. These equations are utilized to determine steady state solutions and their stabilities. It is assumed that the external forcing frequency is close to the lower frequency. For the numeric part of the study, the three-to-one ratio in natural frequencies is investigated. These values are observed to be between the first and second natural frequencies in the cases of the clamped-clamped and clamped-pinned supports, and between the second and third natural frequencies in the case of the pinned-pinned support. Finally, a numeric algorithm is used to solve the three-to-one internal resonance. The first mode is externally excited for the clamped-clamped and clamped-pinned supports, and the second mode is externally excited for the pinned-pinned support. Then, the amplitudes of the first and second modes are investigated when the first mode is externally excited. The amplitudes of the second and third modes are investigated when the second mode is externally excited. The force-response, damping-response, and .frequency- response curves are plotted for the internal resonance modes of vibrations. The stability analysis is carried out for these plots.

The nonlinear behavior of a cantilevered fluid conveying pipe subjected to principal parametric and internal resonances is investigated in this paper.The flow velocity is divided into constant and sinusoidal parts.The velocity value of the constant part is so adjusted such that the system exhibits 3:1 internal resonances for the first two modes.The method of multiple scales is employed to obtain the response of the system and a set of four first-order nonlinear ordinary- differential equations for governing the amplitude of the response.The eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix are used to assess the stability of the equilibrium solutions with varying parameters.The co- dimension 2 derived from the double-zero eigenvalues is analyzed in detail.The results show that the response amplitude may undergo saddle-node,pitchfork,Hopf,homoclinic loop and period- doubling bifurcations depending on the frequency and amplitude of the sinusoidal flow.When the frequency of the sinusoidal flow equals exactly half of the first-mode frequency,the system has a route to chaos by period-doubling bifurcation and then returns to a periodic motion as the amplitude of the sinusoidal flow increases.

Analysis of in-plane 1:1:1 internal resonance of a double cable-stayed shallow arch model with cables’ external excitations

The nonlinear dynamic behaviors of a double cable-stayed shallow arch model are investigated under the one-to-one-to-one internal resonance among the lowest modes of cables and the shallow arch and external primary resonance of cables. The in-plane governing equations of the system are obtained when the harmonic excitation is applied to cables. The excitation mechanism due to the angle-variation of cable tension during motion is newly introduced. Galerkin’s method and the multi-scale method are used to obtain ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of the system and their modulation equations, respectively. Frequency- and force-response curves are used to explore dynamic behaviors of the system when harmonic excitations are symmetrically and asymmetrically applied to cables. More importantly, comparisons of frequency-response curves of the system obtained by two types of trial functions, namely, a common sine function and an exact piecewise function, of the shallow arch in Galerkin’s integration are conducted. The analysis shows that the two results have a slight difference;however, they both have sufficient accuracy to solve the proposed dynamic system.

The nonlinear normal modes (NNMs) associated with integrnal resonance can be classified into two kinds: uncoupled and coupled. The bifurcation problem of the coupled NNM of system with 1 : 2 : 5 dual internal resonance is in two variables. The singular analysis of it is presented after separating the two variables by taking advantage of Maple algebra, and some new bifurcation patterns are found. Different from the NNMs of systems with single internal resonance, the number of the NNMs of systems with dual internal resonance may be more or less than the number of the degrees of freedom. At last, it is pointed out that bifurcation problems in two variables can be conveniently solved by separating variables as well as using coupling equations.

Nonlocal and strain gradient effects on nonlinear forced vibration of axially moving nanobeams under internal resonance conditions

Based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory(NSGT), a model is proposed for an axially moving nanobeam with two kinds of scale effects. The internal resonanceaccompanied fundamental harmonic response of the external excitation frequency in the vicinities of the first and second natural frequencies is studied by adopting the multivariate Lindstedt-Poincaré(L-P) method. Based on the root discriminant of the frequencyamplitude equation under internal resonance conditions, theoretical analyses are performed to investigate the scale effects of the resonance region and the critical external excitation amplitude. Numerical results show that the region of internal resonance is related to the amplitude of the external excitation. Particularly, the internal resonance disappears after a certain critical value of the external excitation amplitude is reached.It is also shown that the scale parameters, i.e., the nonlocal parameters and the material characteristic length parameters, respectively, reduce and increase the critical amplitude,leading to a promotion or suppression of the occurrence of internal resonance. In addition,the scale parameters affect the size of the enclosed loop of the bifurcated solution curves as well by changing their intersection, divergence, or tangency.
