Research on the vibration response characteristics of PE gas pipeline aimed for third-party damage monitoring

Third-party damage (TPD) incidents account for over 73% in China, becoming the primary cause of urban buried gas pipeline disruption. Therefore, real-time monitoring of TPD holds significance. This passage introduces a novel method for third-party damage monitoring of urban gas pipeline networks without excavation. The approach involves installing acoustic sensors in the pipeline to detect abnormal signals caused by construction activities. While the effectiveness of this method has been confirmed for buried steel pipelines, the propagation patterns, frequency characteristics, and the impact of fluid flow within PE pipelines remain unclear. To this end, this study explores these issues through experiments and simulations. According to the research, sound waves are the primary mode of signal propagation. The impact of gas pressure can be disregarded, but if the flow is reversed, the signal will weaken by 26%. The signal energy is concentrated in the 0–2 kHz range, decreasing exponentially as the distance increases. Moreover, a positive linear correlation exists between the signal energy and the load size to the power of 0.1. This research provides theoretical support for studying third-party damage monitoring technology and identifying and localizing damage types.

Effects of train speed and passenger capacity on ground vibration of underground suburban railways

This study aims to explore the optimal driving speed for ground vibration in suburban railway underground sections. We focused on the ground surface of suburban railway underground sections and developed a 3D finite element dynamic coupling model for the tunnel–soil system. Subsequently, considering factors such as train speed and passenger load, we analyzed the propagation characteristics of ground vibration responses in urban railway underground sections. The research results indicate a significant amplification phenomenon in the peak power spectrum of measurement points near the tunnels in underground sections. The high-frequency components of the power spectrum between measurement points are noticeably higher between the two tunnels. Furthermore, as the train speed increases, this amplification phenomenon becomes more pronounced, and the power spectrum of each measurement point mainly concentrates on several frequency bands, with the amplitude of the power spectrum near the prominent frequencies also increasing. However, when the train speed is between 100 and 120 km/h, the impact on the amplitude of the power spectrum at measurement points above the running tunnel is minimal. Additionally, the amplitude of the middle-to-high frequency components in the power spectrum increases with the increase in passenger numbers. The impact on the peak acceleration amplitude at each measurement point is minimal when the train speed is 80 km/h or below. However, once the train speed exceeds 80 km/h, the peak acceleration amplitude above the running tunnel rapidly increases, reaching its maximum value at 113 km/h, and then gradually decreasing.

Experimental study on flow-induced vibration under laminar flow and turbulent flow transition state in helical coiled tube

This study investigates the vibration characteristics induced by single-phase flow at low velocities within helical coiled tube, encompassing laminar and turbulent flow transition regimes. Modal experiments were conducted to ascertain the natural frequencies in the radial and vertical directions within the helical coiled tube. The influence of fluid mass in tube on vibration was considered, revealing the fluid mass has a greater influence on the vibration frequency in the vertical direction. When the coil was filled with water, the radial natural frequency decreased by 0.1 Hz, while the vertical natural frequency decreased by 0.8 Hz.By simplifying the spiral coil into a spring system, the intrinsic causes of the influence of mass on the natural frequency are studied and verified with the experimental data. The results show that the radial natural frequency is only related to the local mass change of the pipe, while the vertical natural frequency is related to the static deformation of the system under the influence of gravity.By conducting single-phase flow induced vibration experiments inside the pipeline, the radial and vertical vibration response characteristics were obtained, and the modal experimental results were analyzed. Findings indicated larger vibration displacements when laminar flow prevailed within the tube, with radial RMS (Root Mean Square) at 10.1 μm and vertical RMS at 14.5 μm. After the transition to turbulent flow, significant reductions in vibration displacements were observed, reducing the radial RMS to 2.3 μm and vertical RMS to 5.5 μm.Based on statistical and frequency-domain analysis methods, the influence mechanism of secondary flow on the vibration of helical coils at low flow rates was revealed, and the importance of friction coupling was clarified. Moreover, this study considered the impact of fluid viscosity on vibration response and experimentally validated the critical role of friction coupling in exciting secondary flows.

RESEARCH ON THE RESPONSE MECHANISM OF CLAMPING POINT POSITION TO THE VIBRATION PROPAGATION CHARACTERISTICS OF WOODEN MATERIALS

Vibratory harvesting is to dislodge fruits by applying excitation force to fruit trees, so the vibration response characteristics of fruit trees are of great significance for vibratory forest and fruit harvesting machinery to realize efficient harvesting. The effects of different clamping points and vibration frequencies on vibration responsiveness and energy transfer in Broussonetia papyrifera branches are investigated in this study. The results show that the effects of different clamping point positions and vibration frequencies on the branch vibration response are mutual. The ideal distance between the clamping point position and the base of the main branch should be between 48% and 73% of the branch length, and the distance between the clamping point position and the base of the main branch increased with the increase of vibration frequency. This is because, when the clamping point is close to the base of the main branch, a higher excitation frequency increases the energy consumption at the base of the main branch, and the amount of ineffective vibration energy transferred to the base of the main branch also increases. Therefore, when the location of the clamping point is close to the base of the main branch, the suppression of high-frequency vibration at the base of the main branch is stronger than the suppression of low-frequency vibration. When the clamping point is located in the center of the branch, the overall response of the branch to vibration is better.

Analysis of vibration response characteristics of composite pipeline based on finite element method

In order to ensure the good stability of the composite pipeline under fluid dynamic loads, finite element analysis method was applied to simulate and calculate the modal characteristics under dry and wet mode conditions. According to the working principle and structural characteristics of composite pipelines, the model was parameterized and simplified to improve computational efficiency and convergence. The modal testing platform is constructed, consisting of a combination of pipeline structure and pipeline support structure. The movement direction of the slider is limited by the guide rail used, allowing the horizontal section of the branch to move only along its own pipeline axis direction. The fluid structure coupling analysis technology was applied to obtain the vibration mode and spectral response results of the composite pipeline, which was verified through an experimental platform. The research results indicate that the natural frequency in wet mode was about 16 % lower than that in dry mode. In addition, it could be proven that the simulation scheme had good computational accuracy, with a maximum error of 9.2 %.

Modal and vibration response characteristics of rotating support platform

In order to improve the strength and stability of the rotating support platform, modal and stress characteristics were simulated and calculated based on finite element analysis method. In Hypemesh, the model of the rotating support platform was established. In Abaqus, boundary conditions and loads were defined, and the natural frequencies and vibration modes of the first four orders were obtained. Based on the structure and stress characteristics of the crossbeam, different damping technologies were compared and analyzed, and rubber damping scheme was selected and designed. Through time mileage analysis, the load response and damping effect of damping scheme were verified. The results show that the rubber damping scheme can reduce the maximum stress by more than 15 % without changing the natural frequency substantially.

Vibration response characteristics of Jujube trees based on finite element method and structure-from-motion

It is an indispensable step to choose optimal vibration parameters in jujube fruits vibration harvesting. Excessive vibration frequency will cause jujube tree damage, otherwise, the separation of fruit and fruit stalk cannot be achieved, resulting in harvesting failure. In our work, finite element method and vibration tests are applied to find optimal vibration parameters. To improve the accuracy of finite element method, a low-cost 3D reconstruction method is proposed to build jujube tree model. Experimental result showed that the phenotypic information of the reconstructed jujube tree and the real jujube tree have a high similarity, and their determination coefficient R2 reach to 0.984. Moreover, the natural frequencies of jujube tree are analyzed by modal analysis, transient analysis is applied to analyze vibration transfer characteristics. The simulation and experimental results show that the optimal vibration frequency range of jujube tree is 25∼30 Hz, the optimal vibration excitation location is on the main trunk and as high as possible close to the secondary branches, which can obtain maximum vibration response for optimum harvesting efficiency. The average determination coefficient is 0.66 between test and simulation results at different frequencies. This study can provide references for accurate 3D modeling of jujube trees, selection of appropriate vibration parameter range and the development of jujube harvesting machinery.

The NExT-ERA method was utilized to identify the modal parameters (frequency, damping ratio, and vibration pattern) of the measured timber construction. Subsequently, a finite element analysis model of the ancient timber building was developed and refined using ANSYS Workbench finite element software. This study proposes a specific repair plan addressing apparent defects and structural damage in the measured ancient timber building, offering theoretical and technical references for the conservation and repair of similar structures.

Exploring the vibration and energy absorption characteristic of auxetic tubular structure: an experimental analysis

This experimental study delves into the vibration response and energy absorption characteristics of three distinct auxetic tubular structures under quasi-static compression: the Reentrant, Double-V, and Anti-Trichiral designs. Notably characterized by their negative Poisson’s ratio, these structures exhibit superior mechanical properties in comparison to conventional tubular structures with a positive Poisson’s ratio. For consistency, all samples were standardized in terms of diameter and height, while variations due to unit cell geometry were parameterized based on the structure’s weight. The samples were fabricated using Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) with both PLA and PLA-Carbon filaments. Modal testing was conducted to evaluate structural damping, providing insights through time domain plots and frequency response functions. Subsequent compression testing facilitated the assessment of force-displacement relationships, thereby enabling the quantification of energy absorbed, specific energy absorption, and peak crushing force metrics. The analysis revealed that Reentrant unit cells constructed from PLA exhibited a 5% higher damping efficiency compared to Double-V and 4% higher than Anti-Trichiral units. Similarly, Reentrant units in PLA-Carbon demonstrated an 8 and 30% increase in damping relative to Double-V and Anti-Trichiral, respectively. During quasi-static compression, Double-V units in PLA showcased a 66 and 13% superior energy absorption capacity over Reentrant and Anti-Trichiral units, respectively. With PLA-Carbon, Double-V units exhibited a 28 and 116% enhanced energy absorption capacity compared to Reentrant and Anti-Trichiral units, respectively. This comprehensive evaluation offers insightful revelations into the damping and energy absorption capabilities of varying auxetic cell structures when composed of different materials, highlighting their potential in engineering applications.

Mathematical simulation modeling analysis of sub-sea tunnel blasting based on grey correlation

Blasting in the ocean tunnel has a great impact on Marine life and seabed vegetation, so it is necessary to control the impact of blasting vibration on the surrounding Marine environment. In this paper, taking Xiamen Tunnel as an example, the blasting vibration response characteristics of undersea tunnel are studied, and the velocity attenuation rules of tunnel structure in different directions are obtained. The grey correlation theory is innovatively applied to analyze the correlation degree of factors affecting the blasting vibration effect of the undersea tunnel, and the key factors and secondary factors affecting the blasting vibration effect of the tunnel are determined. The grey correlation theory is used to analyze the correlation degree between the blasting vibration effect of the cross-tunnel, which is conducive to improving the safety and stability of tunnel construction. It provides a new idea and method for vibration control of similar projects.

Analysis of the vortex-induced vibration response characteristics of riser under the soft suspension evacuation condition

This paper establishes a nonlinear dynamic model for a suspended riser under the condition of considering realistic configurations, based on the principles of virtual work and Hamilton's variational principle. The nonlinearity of the model is manifested by considering vortex-induced vibration in the cross flow (CF) and in-line (IL) directions, as well as large deformations, taking into account the variable diameter of the riser in the compliant riser system. The model is discretized using the finite element method and solved using the Newmark-β method. Experimental validation is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the model. Utilizing the parameters of a riser in a well in the South China Sea, the paper explores the influence of different environmental and structural parameters on the VIV response characteristics of a compliant riser. Results show that the vibration frequency is controlled by both the bare tube and buoyant block when the buoyant block coverage rate is 25%, which can significantly inhibit VIV. With the increase of flow velocity, the VIV energy jumps from low order to high order, and the riser mode also transitions from low order to high order. The increase in suspension length transfers the vibration energy from high to low frequency, thus realizing energy transition and mode shape transformation. With the increase in LMRP weight, the vibration and natural frequencies of the riser increase synchronously, the vibration amplitude decreases, and the mode shape remains unchanged.

Research on the effect of fretting wear on the vibration characteristics of the tenon joint bladed disk

The tenon joint structure is a typical structure of aero-engine bladed disk. Under external excitation, micro-slip inevitably occurs between the tenon and the tenon groove of the blade, which will cause fretting wear on the contact surface. The resonance frequency and margin of the bladed disk structure will change after fretting wear occurs. In this paper, a finite element subprogram is compiled based on the basic principle of Archard wear, which realizes the generation of surface wear morphology and multi-step iterative update of the double-tooth fir-tree joint model under fretting load. The subroutine is used to quantitatively analyze the wear depth distribution of the tenon joint surface under fretting loads. On this basis, the resonance margin and the vibration response characteristics of the bladed disk are quantitatively studied after fretting wear. The research results show that the natural vibration frequency of the bladed disk structure decreases at different wear times. This caused a decrease in the resonance margin of more than 80% of the measuring points. In addition, the resonance response amplitudes all showed an upward trend with the increase of wear depth.

DTMSgram: a novel optimal demodulation frequency band selection method for wheelset bearings fault diagnosis under wheel-rail excitation

Due to the influence of the wheel-rail excitation and complex transmission path, the fault signature of wheelset bearings is often obscured by complex background noise, which brings great challenges to the adaptive determination of the informative frequency band (IFB) in envelope analysis. In this paper, the vibration response characteristics of the axle box under wheel–rail excitation are revealed through full-scale bench tests. The experimental results show that tread damage will provoke periodic transient impacts and it has an obvious sparsity in the frequency domain. Inspired by this feature, a DTMSgram method is proposed to enhance the fault feature components of vibration signals through time-domain and frequency-domain noise reduction technology, and improve the accuracy of demodulation frequency band selection. Firstly, the amplitude spectrum of different weight coefficients is used to preprocess the vibration signal and adjust the full band component of the vibration signal. Then, the autocorrelation process is performed on each layer’s narrowband filtered signal envelope in kurtogram to further reduce noise interference from a time-domain perspective. Moreover, a two-dimensional color map is constructed showing the normalized squared envelope spectrum of the IFBs determined simultaneously from the modified signal. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulated signal and experimental data of three sets of full-size wheelset bearing systems. The analysis results indicate this proposed method can effectively overcome the influence of complex wheel–rail excitation interference and can diagnose multi-source faults simultaneously.

Vibration Response Analysis of a Time-varying Stiffness Wheel with Contrate Gear under Unbalanced Excitation

The vibration and response of multi-contact interface micro-motion time-varying stiffness wheel are analyzed, and the nonlinear vibration response characteristics caused by the unbalance force of multi-contact interface contrate gear face of a gas turbine rotor are studied. Firstly, the local sliding model of dry friction-damped contact is extended to establish a holistic and local unified sliding model. The equivalent stiffness and damping of the damping device are calculated by means of the equivalent linearization method and the first harmonic balance method. Finally, the finite element model of multi-contact contrate gear rotor wheel is established to analyze the influence of different unbalanced masses on vibration response under nonlinear frictional contact. The results show that the response caused by the unbalance mass of multi-contact interface wheel with contrate gear is mainly radial response, and the peak value of resonance response increases with the increase of unbalance force.

Research on vibration stability of a mirror bender system for synchrotron radiation.

This paper accurately predicts and quantifies the vibration response characteristics of a mirror bender system with the finite element simulation and experiment. The results show that the fundamental frequency of the roll angle vibration is 24.66Hz, and the fundamental frequency of the pitch angle vibrationis 116.21Hz. The overall error is within 11.15% in comparision with the first six natural frequencies obtained from experiments and simulations. The vertical support rod, being one of the weakest links in the overall structural stiffness, is a crucial factor limiting the increase in the natural frequency of the mirror system. Before and after the injection of cooling water, the pitch angle vibration was 123.63 and 199.04 nrad, respectively. An increase in the cooling water flow rate from 1 to 1.5 l/min has almost no effect on pitch angle vibrations. This study provides references and guidance for improving the stability of the mirror system.

Vibro-Acoustic Analysis of an Underwater Cylindrical Shell with Internal Structures and a Comparison with Experiment

Abstract: In this work, the low-frequency vibration response and full-band acoustic radiation characteristics of an underwater reinforced cylindrical shell with internal structures are studied by combining the FEM with SEA. The stiffened cylindrical shell contains internal structures such as the F-shape plates and the support valve frames. The exciting sources have two different exciting forces corresponding to two experimental conditions. In the low-frequency band, the FEM was employed, and in the medium and high-frequency bands, the SEA was used. A comparison of the numerical results and the experiment shows that they agree well. The FEM and SEA give better results at [1,1k] Hz and [1k,10k] Hz, respectively. Due to mesh quality limitations, the FEM is not favorable for medium and high-frequency calculations. The SEA focuses on the structural mean power flow but cannot obtain position-specific vibrational responses. The results show that the internal excitation source mainly causes the structural vibration and sound radiation and are closely related to the free vibration characteristics of the structure. In addition, with the increase in frequency, the circumferential sound pressure level of the underwater structure has more substantial directivity.

Vibration characteristic of free-to-rotate elliptical cylinder at low Reynolds number

Investigating the vibration characteristics of elliptical cylinders is important to harvest useful energy or suppress harmful vibration, but there still exist insufficiently understood in freely rotating elliptical cylinders. Herein, this paper investigates the transverse vibration characteristics of a freely rotating elliptical cylinder at Re = 150. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equation and structural dynamics equation are solved separately, and the two-way fluid-structure interaction is performed by exchanging fluid forces and structural displacements. The elliptical cylinder, with varying axial ratios (AR = 1.0–2.5) and mass ratios (m* = 10 or 5), can vibrate transversely and rotate around its center freely. The established numerical model is verified by the published results, and the numerical values are in good agreement with the experimental results. The vibration response and flow field characteristics over a range of reduced velocities (2 ≤ Ur ≤ 14) are explored. The results demonstrate that both the axial ratio and mass ratio significantly affect the vibration characteristics. Increasing the axial ratio or decreasing the mass ratio lead to a wider synchronization region. Within the synchronization region, the elliptical cylinder undergoes significant and unstable rotation, and P + S mode can be observed. Outside the synchronization region, only a small amplitude rotation takes place near the initial position, the transverse vibration amplitude is consistent with that of a non-rotatable elliptical cylinder, and the vortex shedding mode demonstrates 2S. This work provides important guidance in investigating the vibration characteristics of the elliptical cylinder.

Damage Identification and Health Assessment of Crane Girder Structure Under Moving Loads

In the degradation evaluation process of the crane girder structure under moving loads, the complex vibration response and low accuracy of health index standards are the main factors limiting the performance of the evaluation method. A method for identifying and evaluating damage to crane girder structures under moving loads has been proposed. In this method, optimized empirical wavelet transform (EWT) is used for decomposing the vibration signal of the crane girder structure to obtain sensitive components. A health indicator based on power spectrum maximum sequence is constructed by combining structural vibration simulation and response characteristics analysis under moving loads. A degradation index acquisition scheme based on an optimized sparse autoencoder is proposed, which utilizes a simulated annealing algorithm to optimize the model parameters of the sparse autoencoder. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through girder structure crack tests under moving loads.

Numerical analysis on two-phase flow-induced vibrations at different flow regimes in a spiral tube

Spiral tubes are used in a wide range of applications and it is significant to understand the vibration introduced by two-phase flow in spiral tubes. In this paper, the numerical method is used to study the vibration induced by the gas-liquid two-phase flow in a spiral tube with different flow regimes. The pressure fluctuation characteristics at the pipe wall and the solid vibration response characteristics are obtained. The results show that the motion of small bubbles in bubbly flow leads to small pressure fluctuations with low-frequency broadband (0–50 Hz). The motion of the gas plug in the plug flow causes small amplitude periodic pressure fluctuation with a shortened low-frequency broadband (0–15 Hz) compared to the bubbly flow. The motion of the gas slug in the slug flow causes large periodic fluctuations in pressure with a significant dominant frequency (6–7 Hz). The wavy flow is very stable and has a distinct main frequency (1–2 Hz). The vibration regime in the bubbly flow and wave flow are close to the first-order mode, and the vertical vibrating component is dominant. The plug flow and slug flow excite higher-order vibration modes, and the lateral vibration component plays more important part in the vibration response.
