Abstract:
This paper focuses on two integration algorithms used for pseudo-dynamic test, explicit Newmark algorithm and implicit alpha-C algorithm. The comparison study between the test and simulation results shows that: the non-uniform distribution of mass, restoring force characteristics and higher frequency vibration modality are simulated more accurately using the alpha-C algorithm than using explicit Newmark algorithm. The alpha-C algorithm also leads to high iterative accuracy and unconditional stability. Replacing the explicit Newmark algorithm in original experimental system by implicit alpha-C algorithm, the MDOF pseudo dynamic test system can be realized successfully.

Abstract:
This paper presents a simple implicit time integration scheme for transient response solution of structures under large deformations and long-time durations. The authors focus on a practical method using implicit time integration scheme applied to structural dynamic analyses in which the widely used Newmark time integration procedure is unstable, and not energy-momentum conserving. In this integration scheme, the time step is divided in two substeps. For too large time steps, the method is stable but shows excessive numerical dissipation. The influence of different substep sizes on the numerical dissipation of the method is studied throughout three practical examples. The method shows good performance and may be considered good for nonlinear transient response of structures.

Abstract:
Based on the coupled precise time integration method and basic assumptions of constant average acceleration method in Newmark family, implicit series solution of structural dynamic equation is put forward by introducing the Taylor series expansion. Relevant time step integration formulas were designed. Stability and accuracy of the method were analyzed. Stability analyses show that the coupling implicit method is stable when damping ratio is equal to 0, and is conditionally stable when damping ratio are other values. The results show that the accuracy of the algorithm can be controlled by choosing the number of truncation order of Taylor series expansion and is better than that of traditional scheme with the increase of time step. Number examples are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.

Abstract:
This paper presents a dynamic analysis procedure for predicting the responses of large, highly nonlinear, discontinuous structural systems subjected to seismic loading. The concept of equivalent nodal secant stiffness is adopted to diagonalize the conventional stiffness matrix of the structure. With the lumped-mass idealization, the decoupled equilibrium equations of the structure are then solved by the implicit Newmark integration method. Additionally, an incremental-iterative procedure is performed to ensure that the equilibrium conditions are satisfied at the end of each time step. The proposed analysis procedure has the advantages of both the conventional explicit and implicit integration procedures, but with their disadvantages removed. Through extensive applications, the results demonstrate that the proposed procedure is simple and robust for analyzing practical structural systems in terms of computational efficiency and stability.

Abstract:
The modified equations for PC-Newmark method and OS (operator-splitting) method were derived, which could be applied to the numerical solution for the non-linear equation encountered in real time on-line test. The structure with FPS seismic isolation system was divided into three substructures, namely the FPS system, the experiment substructure and the computation substructure. The explicit algorithm is applied to the first two substructures and the implicit algorithm to the third one in order to loosen the stability limitation. The numerical solution for a 7 DOF structural model has proven the alleviation for stability requirement.

Abstract:
A family of new explicit time-integration method is proposed herein, which inherits the numerical characteristics of any existing implicit Runge–Kutta algorithms for a linear conservative system. Based on an exact derivation of the increment of mechanical energy, the method proposed is demonstrated to be unconditionally stable. Also, the stability condition of the proposed method is derived when applied to solving a nonlinear system. The characteristics of the proposed method are investigated by observing the mechanical-energy time history of a nonlinear conservative system. The numerical results can be explained by the stability condition derived in the nonlinear regime. Finally, the computational accuracy and efficiency between the Newmark time integration method and the proposed explicit method are compared in solving the dynamic response of a couple of linear oscillators.

Abstract:
The aeroelastic coupling dynamic equation of helicopter rotor is essentially a set of nonlinear and inhomogeneous equations with large rigidity, in which the inhomogeneous term is a function of blade motion and aerodynamic load. In this paper, the precise time integration method and its derived formats are introduced to solve the rotor blade dynamic equation, and the Duhamel integral item can be calculated by various numerical methods. In terms of computational accuracy and numerical stability, the precise Kutta method and high precision direct integration method (HPD method) are carefully selected to compare with classical Runge–Kutta method numerically. HPD method is used to solve the rotor blade dynamic equation, and the transient response of the rotor blade is examined by Newmark and implicit trapezoidal methods. Results indicate that HPD method dominates the classical Runge–Kutta method in step size independence, and gets close to implicit methods in numerical stability and accuracy for dynamic equation of helicopter rotor blade.

Abstract:
Abstract In recent years, the pounding effect during earthquake is a subject of high significance for structural engineers. In this paper, a state space formulation of the equation of motion is used in a MATLAB code. The pounding forces are calculated using nonlinear viscoelastic impact element. The numerical study is performed on SDOF structures subjected by 1940 EL-Centro and 1977 Vrancea N-S recording. While most of the studies available in the literature are related to Newmark implicit time integration method, in this study the equations of motion in state space form are direct integrated. The time domain is chosen instead of the complex one in order to catch the nonlinear behavior of the structures. The physical nonlinear behavior of the structures is modeled according to the Force Analogy Method. The coupling of the Force Analogy Method with the state space approach conducts to an explicit time integration method. Consequently, the collision is easily checked and the pounding forces are taken into account into the equation of motion in an easier manner than in an implicit integration method. A comparison with available data in the literature is presented.

Abstract:
Dentre as possíveis causas na falha da transmissão de energia elétrica, o colapso de torres de linhas de transmissão (LTs) é uma problemática amplamente investigada nas últimas décadas, devido principalmente aos inúmeros acidentes registrados nas LTs em todo o mundo. Neste trabalho, o enfoque é dado à análise dinâmica associada à solicitação proveniente da ruptura de cabos, que quando atuante é capaz de desencadear um fenômeno conhecido como efeito cascata. Para a melhor compreensão da resposta das torres metálicas autoportantes e estaiadas submetidas a esse carregamento dinâmico e buscando contribuir para a determinação de critérios de projeto que visem o estabelecimento adequado de rigidez longitudinal às torres de LTs, foram desenvolvidos modelos numéricos no software ANSYS Mechanical/LS-DYNA, considerando a discretização do modelo estrutural no espaço a partir da utilização do Método de Elementos Finitos e a solução do problema dinâmico ao longo do tempo considerando o método de integração direta implícito das equações de movimento, através do método de Newmark. Inicialmente foram desenvolvidas análises estáticas, conforme considerado nos projetos atualmente. Em seguida, foram desenvolvidos dois tipos de análises dinâmicas: uma simplificada com a aplicação da solicitação através de uma função de carregamento ao longo do tempo, e outra simulada através do desligamento de um elemento finito do condutor. Posteriormente, foram realizadas interpretações e comparações desses resultados. O amortecimento estrutural foi considerado segundo a formulação proposta por Rayleigh e a formação da catenária dos cabos segundo as equações teóricas dadas por Irvine e Caughey. Visando não restringir as respostas a apenas um tipo de trecho simulado, foram desenvolvidos nove modelos numéricos com a variação do tipo de torre analisada, a quantidade de torres por trecho, o nível de amortecimento e o tipo de análise. As respostas dinâmicas são apresentadas em termos da solicitação normal nas barras das estruturas, dos cabos condutores e estais, e dos deslocamentos no topo das torres.<br>Amidst the main causes of electric energy transmission failure, the collapse of transmission towers is a current research topic in the last decades, due mainly to a huge number of accidents occurring in transmission lines worldwide. In this work, a dynamic analysis was performed associated to the loading due to a broken conductor, which gives rise to a phenomenon known as cascade effect. To better understanding the response of lattice selfsupported and guyed towers under this dynamic load, and in an attempt of determination of criteria for establishment of the longitudinal robustness of transmission line towers, numerical models were developed in the software ANSYS Mechanical/LS-DYNA, considering the discretization of the structural model in space using the finite element method; and the solution of the dynamic problem in the time using the direct integration of the equation of motion, through the Newmark’s method. First, static analyses were performed, accordingly to the considerations of design projects carried out nowadays. Afterwards, two kinds of dynamic analyses were executed: a simplified one, with the applications of the loading using a function in the time and another, which was simulated as a deactivation of a conductor’s finite element. After that, these were submitted to interpretation and comparison among their results. The structural damping was considered in accordance with Rayleigh’s formulation and the catenary of the cables following the equations found by Irvine and Caughey (1974). In order to not restrict the response to one kind of simulation, nine numerical models were developed with the variation of: the kind of tower; the number of towers by line section; the damping level and the type of analysis implemented. The dynamic responses are show in terms of: forces in towers bars; conductors and stays; and the displacements in tower tops.

Abstract:
Abstract An implicit numerical integration approach, based on generalized coordinate partitioning of the descriptor form of the differential-algebraic equations of motion of multibody dynamics, is presented. This approach is illustrated for simulation of stiff mechanical systems using the well known Newmark integration method from structural dynamics. Second order Newmark integration formulas are used to define independent generalized coordinates and their first time derivative as functions of independent accelerations. The latter are determined as the solution of discretized equations obtained using the descriptor form of the equations of motion. Dependent variables in the formulation, including Lagrange multipliers, are determined to satisfy all the kinematic and kinetic equations of multibody dynamics. The approach is illustrated by solving the constrained equations of motion for mechanical systems that exhibit stiff behavior. Results show that the approach is robust and has the capability to integrate differential-algebraic equations of motion for stiff multibody dynamic systems.

Abstract:
Abstract The dynamic equations of motion obtained in the modeling of flexible structural systems with unknown rigid body gross motion are often highly nonlinear and possess time-varying coefficient matrices. The inherent characters of nonlinear large overall rigid body motion and linear small vibration are also involved in the system equations. Neither the implicit nor the explicit algorithm seems optimally suited and efficient by itself in dealing with these kinds of equations. This paper, therefore, presents a sequential implicit-explicit method in which it is attempted to achieve the attributes of both classes of algorithms. The equation system expressed in matrix form is first mapped to a subsystem in which the specified generalized coordinates are eliminated. The subsystem is then partitioned into two sets of coupled equations. One set of equations, describing the elastic motion, is linear with respect to the elastic generalized coordinates and is integrated implicitly. The other set of equations, governing the rigid body motion, contains the highly nonlinear coupling terms and is integrated explicitly with the back substitutions of the elastic kinematic properties already calculated in solving the first set of equations. A Newmark algorithm is employed to integrate the second order system of differential equations directly. A predictor-corrector scheme also coming from the Newmark algorithm is applied to the explicit integration. The procedures developed in the current paper are applied to simulating dynamic response of a complicated flexible system with mutually dependent rigid body unconstrained spherical motion and small elastic deformation.

Abstract:
The present paper deals with the numerical simulation of a non-linear coupled fluid-structure problem with finite element/finite volume coupled technique and mainly focus on the time coupling algorithm: the coupling procedure lies on a staggered explicit or implicit strategy. A simple coupled case is studied; namely a non-linear elastic beam coupled with an incompressible fluid with free surface effects. The structure problem is solved with a finite element approach. The nonlinear discrete structure problem is integrated in time with the non-linear Newmark scheme with a fixed-point procedure. The fluid problem is solved with a finite volume approach. The non-linear discrete fluid problem is solved with the PISO (Pressure Implicit by Splitting Operator) algorithm. The coupled problem is solved with two different approaches. At first, an explicit approach is proposed, based on a step by step alternate integration of the structure and fluid non-linear problems. As expected the method is found to be numerically dissipative and potentially unstable. An implicit approach is then proposed, using inner coupling iterations. The proposed algorithm is proved to be stable and less dissipative. Implicit and explicit approaches are presented. Numerical calculations are performed on the elementary studied case. Results are presented and compared for the two time-integration procedures, highlighting the numerical qualities of each procedure in terms of numerical damping, stability and precision.

In the present paper, a new fully coupled simulator based on DeepLines™ software is described in order to address floating wind turbines dynamic simulation. It allows its user to take into account either separately or together the hydrodynamic and aerodynamic effects on one or several floating wind turbines. This simulator includes a non linear beam finite elements formulation to model the structural components — blades, tower, drivetrain, mooring lines and umbilicals — for both HAWT and VAWT layouts and advanced hydrodynamic capabilities to define all kinds of floating units and complex environmental loadings. The floating supports are defined with complete hydrodynamic databases computed with a seakeeping program. The aerodynamic loads acting on the turbine rotor are dynamically computed by an external aerodynamic library, which first release includes BEM (blade element moment for HAWTs) and SSM (single streamtube method for VAWTs) methods. The integration in time is performed with an implicit Newmark integration scheme.

Abstract:
In this study, nonlinear dynamic responses considering fluid-structure interactions have been conducted for a stator-rotor cascade configuration. Advanced computational analysis system based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and computational structural dynamics (CSD) has been developed in order to investigate detailed dynamic responses and flutter stability of general stator-rotor cascade configurations. Especially, effects of relative motions of the rotor cascade with respect to the stator cascade are considered in numerical analyses. Fluid domains are modeled using the unstructured grid system with dynamic moving and local deforming techniques. Unsteady, Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with Spalart-Allmaras and SST k-ω turbulence models are solved for unsteady flow problems. A fully implicit time marching scheme based on the Newmark direct integration method is typically used for computing the coupled aeroelastic governing equations of the cascade fluid-structure interaction problems. Detailed dynamic aeroelastic responses for different stator-rotor interaction flow conditions are presented to show the physical vibration characteristics in the time-domain.

Abstract:
In this paper, a modeling approach for strongly coupled Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) simulations of a mixing vessel stirrer is presented and discussed. A finite-volume Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model is used to calculate the mixer flow field while the structural dynamics of the stirrer is based on a 2-DOF damped spring-mass oscillator system. The time integration of the stirrer response is carried out using the Newmark method, and is applied in conjunction with the implicit time integration of the fluid governing equations. The solution methodology employs a transient rotorstator interface to handle frame change between the rotor system and the baffles. Furthermore, mesh adaption around the rotor system is applied using an Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) treatment of the fluid governing equations. The fluid forces acting on the impeller are analyzed and a method is proposed for extracting the added mass, damping, and stiffness coefficients, which are of significance in rotordynamic analysis. The computational results for the average stirrer deflections are in close agreement with experimental data, and the trends in the extracted rotordynamic coefficients align with other previously reported data for turbomachinery.

Abstract:
The work presented in this paper describes a general formulation for implementation of Multiple Grid and Multiple Time-scale (MGMT) simulations in continuum mechanics. Using this method one can solve problems in structural dynamics in which the domain under consideration can be selectively discretized (spatially and temporally) in critical and remote regions, hence allowing the user to obtain a desired level of accuracy and save computational time. The formulation is based upon the fundamental principles of Domain Decomposition Methods (DDM) used to obtain the semi-discrete equation of motion for coupled sub-domains augmented with interface energy. Lagrange Multipliers, based on Schur’s dual formulation, are used to enforce interface conditions since they not only ensure energy balance but also enforce continuity of kinematic quantities across the interface. The Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting (FETI) based Multi Time-step (MTS) coupling algorithm proposed by Prakash and Hjelmstad [1] is then used to obtain the evolution of unknown quantities in respective sub-domains using different time-steps and/or different variants of the Newmark Implicit Method. Our work is in the direction of coupling this MTS algorithm with multiple grid discretizations in respective subdomains. We propose using coarse grid discretization to define the mortar space between non-conforming sub-domains and show that this particular choice when combined with the implicit integration scheme yields a stable algorithm for MGMT simulations. The formulation is implemented, comprehensively, using Finite Element Methods and programming in FORTRAN 90. Several scenarios with different mesh densities and time-steps are evaluated to analyze the efficiency of MGMT simulations. The purpose of this paper is to study and evaluate its accuracy and stability by looking at evolution and distribution of quantities across the connecting interface. Results show that the interface coupling for non-conforming sub-domains with distinct integration time-steps can be efficiently modeled using this approach.

Abstract:
In the present work, the nonlinear dynamic response of an unbalanced horizontal flexible rotor supported by deep groove ball bearing is studied. Nonlinearity effects in rolling element bearings arise from Hertzian contact force deformation relationship and clearance between rolling elements and races. The system is bi-periodically excited due to varying compliance of ball bearing and rotating unbalance. The flexible rotor bearing system is modeled by finite element method, taking into account the gyroscopic moments, rotary inertia, shear deformation, proportional damping, nonlinear stiffness and radial internal clearance of ball bearing. The implicit type numerical time integration scheme Newmark-β and Newton-Raphson methods are used to numerically solve the nonlinear equations of motion. The mathematical model is validated for the natural frequencies of the flexible shaft and whirl frequencies. On account of variation in the ball bearing stiffness, the variation in natural frequencies of the rotor ball bearing system is estimated. The influence of ball bearing nonlinearity on dynamic behavior is analyzed by time histories of steady state response, phase portraits and power spectra. Effect of radial internal clearance and varying compliance on the unbalance response of flexible rotor is studied in detail.

Abstract:
A finite element simulation of impacts on sandwich composites with laminated faces is presented; it is based on a refined multilayered plate model with a high-order zig-zag representation of displacements, which is incorporated through a strain energy updating process. This allows the implementation into existing commercial finite elements codes, preserving their program structure. As customary, the Hertzian law and the Newmark implicit time integration scheme are used for solving the contact problem. The contact radius and the force are computed within each time step by an iterative algorithm which forces the impacted top surface to conform, in the least-squares sense, to the shape of the impactor. Nonlinear strains of von Karman type are used. As appearing by the comparison with experimental results, the present model is able to accurately predict the impact force, the core damage and the damage of face sheets in sandwich composites with foam and or honeycomb core. Moreover, this paper also assesses the accuracy and the range of application of stress based criteria in predicting the onset and evolution of delamination in service. These criteria are widespread by virtue of their low run time and storage costs, although no exhaustive proofs are known weather they are accurate enough for a reasonably wide range of applications. Since where highly iterative solutions are involved (e.g., impact and geometric, or material nonlinear problems) they are the only currently affordable failure models, it appears of primary importance to fill this gap. Aimed to contribute to the knowledge advancement in this field, a comparison is presented with more sophisticate fracture mechanics and progressive delamination models.

Abstract:
Abstract Risers are critical structures for the offshore oil and gas industry connecting floating production platforms to seabed equipment for production, injection and export functions, often through catenary configurations. The effect of external flow induced vibrations (VIV) and the occurrence of buckling are critical factors to lifespan of these structures. Therefore, the consistent evaluation of these factors is a strategic issue. Software for riser structural analysis usually employs Morison’s equation [1] to evaluate hydrodynamic forces along riser structure. Although this methodology is well established, their results are potentially conservative due to simplifications, besides not including lift forces. The present work employs an alternative methodology to calculate hydrodynamic loading on risers, based on the discrete vortex method (DVM) [2]. The DVM uses the Lagrangian approach in the vortex modeling, for incompressible, two-dimensional flows with regions of high vorticity and with dominant convective effect over the viscous one. The method creates and moves vortices along the riser wall perimeter, updates wake vortices at every time step considering the Biot-Savart law and calculates circulation by imposing the zero normal velocity condition on the riser wall. The structural analysis software, based on finite element method (FEM), Anflex [3], drives the DVM algorithm. Anflex applies an implicit time integration algorithm based on Newmark method together with three-dimensional nonlinear Euler beam elements with large displacements. This coupling occurs by modeling the flow in two-dimensional domains, called DVM planes, associated with each structural finite element along riser structure. The flow through DVM planes is responsible for the hydrodynamic forces on the structure, which in turn interferes with the fluid flow by structure displacements, performing a two-way coupling process [4]. This work presents experimental model results of a free catenary riser subjected to top-end displacements in still water, and compares them to numerical results obtained by Anflex/DVM. The experimental riser model is 41.45 m long under a 14.5 m water depth. Two-dimensional AMTI load cells [5] measured the catenary top force values and MCS Qualisys camera system [6] captured displacements on 40 points along the riser model. LabOceano hydrodynamic tank [7] performed the tests. The results comprised out-of-plane catenary vibration, catenary top force, and deformed configuration with global buckling at touch down point region (TDP). The experimental results showed significant self-induced vibrations due to the vertical movements applied at top connection, which indicated that the global buckling at TDP is highly influenced by these vibrations. Numerical analysis using Anflex/DVM showed good agreement with the experimental results. Anflex/DVM satisfactorily captured TDP buckling, which did not occur for the model based on Morison’s equation. These results indicated that the DVM-based method leads to more realistic dynamic responses, when compared to Morison’s equation. This paper defines global buckling as the dynamic wavy configuration that takes place at the TDP region of the riser under compression loading due to the vertical movement imposed at the riser top.
