However, most previous works only focused on the effect of the bearing support stiffness on the critical speeds or modal characteristics including the natural frequencies and mode shapes of rigid rotor systems (RRSs). The previous studies missed the combined effects of the bearing support stiffness and position. To overcome this issue, an analytical method of a FRS based on the finite element (FE) method is proposed. Our model considers the bearing support stiffness and rotational inertia of FRS. The frequency equation of FRS is established for solving the critical speeds. The critical speeds and modal deformations of FRS from our model and the numerical model based on a commercial software are compared to verify the effectiveness of the presented method. The effects of the bearing support stiffness and position on the critical speeds of FRS are analyzed. The results show that the critical speeds are positively correlated with the bearing support stiffness. The critical speeds of FRS are also greatly affected by the bearing position. This study can provide some guidance for the optimization design method of bearing support stiffness and position in FRSs.","PeriodicalId":131358,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121917573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The average DTEF is taken as the dynamic objective function of optimization for three-dimensional modification technology of tooth surface. An engineering example is given in form of numerical simulation, which proves that the average DTEF with the consideration of dynamic loads is obviously lower than the static transmission efficiency (STEF), especially for the resonance speed region. The results also show that the DTEF after 3-D modification is significantly improved, owing to the improvement of meshing state of tooth surface. The comparison of DTEF with different loads and speeds via simulation and experiment furtherly demonstrates the credibility of this theoretical perspectives. This study gives the explanation on the importance of DTEF in determination of driveline parameters and estimation of transmission quality of DHGT. The developed method for DTEF analysis is practical in engineering, and establishes a reliable foundation for further research on design of high-quality double helical gear trains.","PeriodicalId":131358,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128624474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on Theodorsen unsteady aerodynamics and the V-g method, the flutter analysis in frequency domain is carried out for the smart wind turbine blade and the ordinary wind turbine blade. The simulation results demonstrate that the flutter critical velocity, that is, the reduced velocity of the smart wind turbine blade, is obviously much higher than that of the ordinary wind turbine blade. The smart wind turbine blade of piezoelectric material can effectively restrain the flutter of the wind turbine blade, especially for the flap motion. For the torsion motion, the smart wind turbine blade is kept away from the critical flutter. Then, to investigate the influences of different parameters on the flutter of the smart wind turbine blade, the influences of the center of gravity, the frequency ratio and the mass ratio of the blades on the flutter critical velocity of the smart wind turbine blade are researched respectively. The increase of the applied external electrical load of the piezoelectric material can increase the flutter critical velocity of the smart wind turbine blade.","PeriodicalId":131358,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126873736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
