Abstract
Nonlinear energy sink (NES) is widely applied in engineering field due to the advantages of light weight, high robustness, unidirectional energy transfer, rapid and broadband vibration isolation. In this paper, nonlinear energy sink is utilized to suppress vibration of the variable thickness porous sandwich conical shells for the first time, and the high-dimensional nonlinear flutter suppression characteristics of the system of simply supported variable stiffness truncated porous sandwich conical shell coupled NES under aerodynamic force and thermal stress are investigated. By applying the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), Hamilton's principle and Galerkin technique, the high-dimensional nonlinear ordinary differential flutter suppression equations of the system appended with NES are established. The accuracy of the theoretical approach is ensured by the comparison of frequency results, while the NES dissipated kinetic energy ratio and the comparison of NES performance with other suppression systems are presented to prove the effectiveness of NES on nonlinear flutter suppression. The time history diagrams and limit cycle oscillation (LCO) amplitude curves, which reflect the high-dimensional nonlinear flutter suppression effect of NES, are obtained by employing the Runge-Kutta method. The effects of aerodynamic pressure, the parameters and positions of single NES, and the positions of parallel NES and series NES on the high-dimensional nonlinear flutter suppression characteristics of the system attached with NES are discussed in depth. Finally, the optimal high-dimensional nonlinear flutter suppression scheme is arrived.
