Abstract
Stability in transverse parametric vibration of axially accelerating viscoelastic beams is investigated. The governing equation is derived from Newton's second law, Boltzmann's superposition principle, and the geometrical relation. When the axial speed is a constant mean speed with small harmonic variations, the governing equation can be treated as a continuous gyroscopic system with small periodically parametric excitations and a damping term. The method of multiple scales is applied directly to the governing equation without discretization. The stability conditions are obtained for combination and principal parametric resonance. Numerical examples demonstrate that the increase of the viscosity coefficient causes the lager instability threshold of speed fluctuation amplitude for given detuning parameter and smaller instability range of the detuning parameter for given speed fluctuation amplitude. The instability region is much bigger in lower order principal resonance than that in the higher order.
