Lately, due to increasing engine output by high supercharging, heavy crankshaft and propeller mass, as well as long strokes attended with the reduced crankshaft axial stiffness, the critical crankshaft axial vibration has frequently appeared in maneuvering range of the engine. Some investigators have developed calculating methods of natural frequencies and resonant amplitudes for crankshaft axial vibrations. But their reliabilities are uncertain as the estimated crankshaft axial stiffness are incorrect. The calculating procedure of these natural frequencies is practically analogous to the classical calculation of torsional vibration frequencies, except for an important difference due to the relationship of the axial stiffness of a crank and the angle between the crank and other, especially the adjacent, cranks. In this paper, 6 calculation formulae of crankshaft axial stiffness already published and a theoretically- developed one by authors are checked by comparing their calculating results with those measured values of one model crankshafat and three full-scale actual crankshafts. Also, the calculating methods of the crankshaft axial free vibration are investigated and their computer programs are developed. Finally, those developed computer programs are applied to calculating one model crankshaft and two full-scale actual crankshafts of ship's propulsion engines and their calculated results are compared with those measured values.

An artificial neural network (ANN) application is presented for flexural and axial vibration analysis of elastic beams with various support conditions. The first three natural frequencies of beams are obtained using multi layer neural network based back-propagation error learning algorithm. The natural frequencies of beams are calculated for six different boundary conditions via direct solution of governing differential equations of beams and Rayleigh's approximate method. The training of the network has been made using these data only flexural vibration case. The trained neural network, however, had been tested for cantilever beam (C-F), and both end free (F-F) in case the axial vibration, and clamped-clamped (C-C), and Guided-Pinned (G-P) support condition in case the flexural vibrations which were not included in the training set. The results found by using artificial neural network are sufficiently close to the theoretical results. It has been demonstrated that the artificial neural network approach applied in this study is highly successful for the purposes of free vibration analysis of elastic beams.

Vibration problems occurred in an air cooled heat exchanger with axial flow fan for a petrochemical plant were investigated. Experimental field test and theoretical verification were performed. To find the main cause of the high vibration of the fan at the air inlet of the axial fan, the frequency spectrum was measured. The natural frequency of the driving support of the heat exchanger was numerically calculated. Both of the measured and the natural frequency were approximately equal to the blade passing frequency. Because it was difficult to modify the structure of the driving support during the normal operation of the plant, the blade number of the fan was increased, which greatly reduced the vibration level of the heat exchanger.

In this paper, a new and simplified method is presented in which the natural frequencies of the uniform and non-uniform beams are calculated through simple mathematical relationships. The various vibration problems such as: Rayleigh beam under variable axial force, axial vibration of a bar with and without end discrete spring, torsional vibration of a bar with an attached mass moment of inertia, flexural vibration of the beam with laterally distributed elastic springs and also flexural vibration of the beam with effects of viscose damping are investigated. The governing differential equations are first obtained and then; according to a harmonic vibration, are converted into single variable equations in terms of location. Through repetitive integrations, the governing equations are converted into weak form integral equations. The mode shape functions of the vibration are approximated using a power series. Substitution of the power series into the integral equations results in a system of linear algebraic equations. The natural frequencies are determined by calculation of a non-trivial solution for system of equations. The efficiency and convergence rate of the current approach are investigated through comparison of the numerical results obtained with those obtained from other published references and results of available finite element software.

Vibration test on MAST(multi axial simulation table) system has several advantage over one-axial vibration test that could simulate 6-DOF, 3-axial translation and 3-axial moment, at the same time. Since field vibration motion can be fully represented with 6-DOF, multi-axial vibration test on vehicle component is widely conducted in technical leading companies to make sure its fatigue performance in vibration environment. On the way to fulfill the process, editing technique of obtained field data is key issue to success a reliable vibration testing with MAST system. Since the original signals are not only too large to fulfill it directly, but all of the measured data is not guarantee its convergency on generating its driving files, editing technique of the original signals are highly required to make some events that should meet the equal fatigue damage on the target component In this paper, key technique on editing a field data feasible for MAST system is described based on energy method in vibration fatigue. To explain its technique explicitly, author first introduced a process on field data acquisition of two vehicle component and then, representing events are produced to keep up with the editing strategy about a energy method. In the final chapter, a time information regarding a vibration test on MAST system is derived from the energy data which is critical information to perform a vibration test.

The vibrational system of this study is consisted of a rotating cantilever pipe and the flow in the pipe. The equation of motion is derived by using Lagrange equation. The influences of the rotating angular velocity and the velocities of fluid flow in the pipe have been studied on the dynamic characteristics of a rotating cantilever pipe by numerical method. The tip-amplitude of axial vibration and maximum tip-deflection of axial direction of cantilever pipe are directly proportional to the velocity of fluid and rotating angular velocity of pipe In the steady state. respectively The bending tip-amplitude of cantilever pipe is inversely proportional to the velocity of fluid in the steady state. When the rotating angular velocity is 5 rad/s, the velocity of fluid increase with increasing the natural frequency of axial vibration at second mode and third mode, but the natural frequency axial direction of first mode is decreased. The natural frequency of lateral direction is decreased due to increase of the rotating angular velocity. It identifies that the Influence of velocity of fluid give much variation lower mode of vibration in lateral direction. And the Influence of velocity of fluid give much variation higher mode of vibration in axial direction.

A method to estimate the radiatio power to the surrounding formation due to axial vibration of the pipe in a fluid-filled borehole has been developed, by using the propagation modes of stress wave in an infinitely-long and uniform drilling borehole surrounded by a radially-infinite homogeneous formation. Also, the equivalent damping coefficient for the axial vibration of the pipe has been derived. As an example, results for a real drilling borehole has been presented. The analysis of the elastic motion of the infinite formation which has cylidrical cavity is simplified with the geometric axisymmetry and the low-frequency assumption so that the analytic solution is obtained.

When a cantilever beam with a lumped mass at its free end undergoes free transverse vibration, internal axial forces are produced in the beam. Such internal axial forces have an effect on free transverse vibration of the beam. This effect is studied in this paper. The equations of motion for the beam in terms of the generalized coordinates including the effect are derived. The method for determining free transverse vibration of the beam including the effect is presented. In numerical simulations, the results of free transverse vibration of the free end of the beam including and not including the effect are obtained. Based on comparison between the results obtained, the conclusions concerning the effect are given.

The present study investigates axial vibration of a FG nanobeam using nonlocal elasticity theory under clamped-clamped and clamped-free boundary conditions. Power law, exponential law and sigmoid law are applied as grading laws to examine the effect of the material distribution on axial vibration of the FG nanobeam. A parametric study was done to examine the effect of length scale on the dynamic behavior of the structure and the results are presented. It was observed that consideration of the nonlocal length scale is essential when analyzing the free vibration of a FG nanobeam. The results of the present study can be used as benchmarks in future studies of FG nanostructures.

In this study, axial vibration analysis has been conducted on a propulsion and lift shafting system for an air cushion vehicle using ANSYS code. The shafting system is totally flexible multi-elements system including wood composite material of air propeller. aluminum alloy of lift fan and thin walled shaft with flexible coupling. The analysis calculated the axial natural frequencies and mode shapes of the shafting system taking into account an equivalent mass-elastic model for shafting system as well as the three-dimensional models for propeller blade and fan impeller. Such a flexible shafting system has very intricate vibrating characteristics and especially, axial natural frequencies of flexible components such as propeller blade and impeller of lift fan can be lower to the extent that causes a resonance in the range of operating revolution. The results for axial vibration analysis are presented and compared with the results of axial vibration test for lift fan conducted during Sea Trial.
