Abstract
The article describes technique for modelling of ultrasonic vibrations amplifiers, which are implemented in the form of non-uniform ring-shaped waveguides, based on application of harmonic balance method. Bending vibrations of the waveguide are described by means of non-uniform integral and differential equations equivalent to Euler–Bernoulli equations in order to simplify calculation of amplitude-frequency characteristics of vibrations, particularly, to exclude the need of working with singular matrices. Using harmonic balance method, equations of vibrations are reduced to overdetermined non-uniform linear system of algebraic equations, which least-squares solution is determined by means of pseudo-inverse matrix. On the basis of analysis of numerical example possibility of existence of variable-sign and constant-sign vibration modes of the waveguide is shown and it is determined that for realization of amplifying function it is necessary to use waveguide at constant-sign vibration mode. The constant-sign vibration modes are combinations of bending defor-mation and extensional deformation of central line of the waveguide and they are detected due to accounting extensibility of the central line in equations of vibrations. Validity of the obtained results is confirmed by comparing them to the results of modelling by means of finite element method.
