Abstract
This paper investigates the stochastic vibration mitigation of composite cylindrical shells using multi-modal piezoelectric vibration absorbers (PVAs). A novel semi-analytical method is proposed to analyse the stochastic vibration characteristics of composite cylindrical shells equipped with PVAs. The vibration behaviour under stochastic excitations is determined using the modified Ritz method and the pseudo excitation method (PEM). Compared to the finite element method (FEM), the proposed model greatly enhances efficiency by eliminating the need for repeated modelling and meshing, thereby facilitating the optimisation of PVAs. The effects of piezoelectric patch layout and circuit parameters on PVA performance are examined in detail using the proposed electro-mechanical model. Additionally, a multi-modal PVA design procedure, combining the semi-analytical model with a surrogate model-based optimisation algorithm, is presented. The superior stochastic vibration suppression performance of the multi-modal PVA is demonstrated by comparing the dynamic responses of the composite cylindrical shell without PVA, with single-modal PVA, and with multi-modal PVA. The proposed optimisation procedure offers a valuable approach for the design of multi-modal PVAs for stochastic vibration control of cylindrical structures.
期刊介绍:
Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses.
Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering.
The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
