Piezoelectric materials have a piezoelectric effect that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. In this paper, the blades of the rotating wind turbine are simplified as flexible beams fixed on the rotating wheels, and piezoelectric ceramics are added to the beams as sensors and actuators respectively to establish an analysis model of the vibration behavior of the piezoelectric sandwich rotating wind turbine blades. Based on Newton’s second law, different accelerations are added to the rotating wheel to obtain the differential equation of a vibration variable coefficient. The fourth order Runge-Kutta method is used to solve variable coefficient differential equations. The hypothetical modal method is applied to solve the displacement of the free end of the flexible beam. A numerical simulation is also carried out to analyse the magnitude and change trend of the voltage output by adding piezoelectric materials at different angular velocities. The results show that the greater the rotational angular velocity, the greater the displacement of the free end of the flexible beam, and the greater the voltage due to the piezoelectric effect of the piezoelectric material. When the rotation angular velocity reaches a stable value, the displacement of the free end and the generated voltage will also reach a stable value.

Axle bearings (AXBs) are critical parts for high-speed railway trains (HSTs). Local faults in the AXBs have great influences on the operational dynamics of HSTs. Although some previous works formulated the local faults in single AXB, the vibrations of the whole train system with the defective AXB cannot be described. To overcome this problem, this study conducts a dynamic model for a HST considering a local fault in one AXB. The previous single AXB model cannot formulate the studied case. The impacts caused by the fault in the AXB is defined as a time-dependent force model considering a half-sine type. The road spectrum excitations from the roadbed and rail are formulated by a track irregularities model. The effects of the train speeds and fault sizes on the HST dynamics are introduced. The simulation results from the proposed and previous works are contrasted to show the model validation. The results show that the faults in the AXB will greatly affect the HST dynamics. It depicts that this study can afford a more reasonable approach for understanding the dynamics of HSTs considering the defective AXBs compared to the reported single AXB model.

The parametric and vibrational characteristics of PZTs (Piezoelectric Transducers) with different diameters before and after coupling are discussed by finite element analysis. It is shown that the vibration stability of the piezoelectric transducer decreases with increasing driving frequency. The PZT’s variation of maximum displacement with frequency shows the same trend for different driving conditions according to vibration measurement under conditions of both free and forced vibration (before and after sealing with the pump body). The maximum displacement under forced vibration is less than that under free vibration. The maximum displacement is inversely proportional to the diameter of the transducer and directly proportional to the driving voltage under both free and forced vibration. Micropumps with diffuser/nozzle microvalves are designed and fabricated with different external diameters of the PZTs. Finally, the flow rate and pressure of the micropumps are measured, which are consistent with the vibrational results. Moreover, the maximum displacement is larger under a square-wave driving signal, followed by a sine-wave signal, and then a triangle-wave signal. For a PZT with an external diameter of 12 mm, the maximum flow rate and pressure value are 150 μl/min and 346 Pa, respectively, under sine-wave driving at 100 Vpp driving voltage.

The presence of strong background noises makes it a challenging task to detect weak fault characteristics in vibration signals collected from rotating machinery. Thus, a two-stage intelligent weak fault recognition framework, which includes signal enhancement and intelligent recognition, is proposed in this work. The signal enhancement is accomplished via an optimized relevant variational mode decomposition (ORVMD) algorithm. Specifically, the optimal parameters is derived by combining a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and the novel defined relevant energy (Re) index. This optimized VMD algorithm can extract the principal components from the raw signals. Then, the enhanced vibration signals via the proposed ORVMD are converted into spectral signals and fed into an improved stacked auto-encoder (ISAE) algorithm for fault recognition. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms and fault diagnosis framework in rotating machinery fault recognition and detection.

An important but often overlooked factor that affects the performance of a meso/micro electro mechanical vibratory sensor is the structural interaction between the sensor’s resonator and the substrate on which it is mounted. Situating resonators at node points eliminates this interaction and thereby helps to improve a resonator’s quality-factor for a particular mode of vibration. This paper addresses the problem of locating a single degree of freedom springmass resonator on a generic cantilever substrate. The loci of natural frequencies obtained when the resonator’s mounting location is varied are developed, and the nodal locations are identified. Thereafter a method to obtain these locations from the characteristic equation without solving the associated eigenvalue problem is described. Lookup tables detailing the nodal locations and the corresponding natural frequencies for various resonator parameters are presented. It is found that at these special nodal locations, the magnitude of the power transmitted through anchors is negligible, which ensures minimal structural interaction between the resonator and the substrate.

Responses of systems with nonlinear stiffness subjected to base harmonic excitation are determined. An expression to estimate the amplitude in the fundamental frequency of oscillation is derived from first principles using Lindstedt’s method. It is observed that the amplitude determined using the zero order approximation is in error at low frequencies. Therefore, an expression for the first order approximation of the amplitude of response at the fundamental frequency is derived. Zero order and first order approximation terms together form the response. Characteristics showing the variation of the amplitude with the excitation frequency for various nonlinear spring parameters are presented. The issue at low frequencies is resolved by the incorporation of the first order term. An expression for the phase difference and the expression of the asymptote where the responses converge are also derived.

This contribution intends to give an overview on the vibration behaviour of slab tracks in comparison of measurements and calculations and also by comparison of different track types at more than ten different measuring sites. In theory, tracks on continuous soil are calculated by the frequency-wavenumber domain method. In experiment, geophone measurements are transformed to displacement results. Two aspects of track behaviour are considered, the frequency-dependant compliance of the track, measured by hammer impact, and the deflection under a passing axle load. In theory, the response to a single axle can be calculated, whereas in experiment, only the passage of the whole train can be measured. For comparison of theory and experiment, the calculated deflection under a single axle is superposed to get the response of the whole train. As a result, the slab track characteristics are completely different from the ballast track characteristics where each axle can be seen in the time histories. The slab track has a more global behaviour where only a whole bogie can be found in the track response and moreover, the two neighbouring bogies are not completely separated. The measurement of the different track elements (rail, sleeper, track plate, base layer) and the frequency-dependant compliances with possible resonances yield further information about the properties of the track elements. The calculations show that the soil has the dominant influence on the amplitudes and the width of the track-plate displacements. In the measurement results, the following parameters are analysed: slab track vs. ballast track, different types of slab tracks, damaged slab tracks, different trains, switches at different measuring points, voided sleepers, an elastic layer, the mortar layer, and different soils at different places. Finally, a good agreement between measured and calculated results is found for the normal and some special (damaged, floating) slab tracks.

The bending vibration behavior of a non-uniform axially functionally graded Euler-Bernoulli beam is investigated based on the Chebyshev collocation method. The cross-sectional and material properties of the beam are assumed to vary continuously across the axial direction. The Chebyshev differentiation matrices are used to reduce the ordinary differential equations into a set of algebraic equations to form the eigenvalue problem associated with the free vibration. Some calculated results are compared with numerical results in the published literature to validate the accuracy of the present model. A good agreement is observed. The effects of the taper ratio, volume fraction index, and restraint types on the natural frequency of axially functionally graded beams with non-uniform cross section are examined.

As critical components, rolling bearings are widely used in a variety of rotating machinery. It is necessary to develop a suitable fault diagnosis method to prevent malfunctions and breakages of bearings during operation. However, the current methods for the fault diagnosis of rolling bearings are too cumbersome to be applied in practical engineering. In addition, the working condition of rolling bearings is generally tough, complex, and especially variable. These conditions cause fault diagnosis methods to be less effective. This paper aims to provide a simple and effective method for the fault diagnosis of rolling bearings under variable conditions. The main contribution of this paper is as follows: (1) The refined composite multiscale fuzzy entropy (RCMFE) is applied in bearing fault feature extraction because of its simplicity and high efficiency; (2) The improved support vector machine (ISVM), based on the whale optimization algorithm (WOA), is proposed to identify the fault pattern of rolling bearings. The ISVM is proposed in this paper to solve the problem that parameter setting affects the classification effect of SVM. In the ISVM, the WOA is employed to optimize both the regularization and kernel parameters of the SVM. Compared with the traditional optimization methods, the WOA has the advantages of high optimization speed and better optimization ability; (3) Combining the RCMFE and the ISVM to diagnose bearing fault under variable working conditions. The effectiveness of the RCMFE-ISVM has been validated via experimental vibration signal of bearings faults under variable working conditions.
