For this purpose, various design concepts were developed to create a hybrid cell core by combining flexible wall areas based on thermoplastic elastomer films and rigid honeycomb areas made of fiber-reinforced thermoplastics. Within the scope of the presented study, a numerical approach was introduced to analyze the global compressive failure of the hybrid composite core structure, considering local buckling and composite failure according to Puck and Cuntze. Therefore, different geometrical configurations of fiber-reinforced tapes were compared with respect to their deformation as well as their resulting failure behavior by means of a finite element analysis. The resulting compression strength obtained by a linear buckling analysis agrees largely with calculated strengths of the more elaborate application of the failure criteria according to Puck and Cuntze, which were implemented in the framework of a nonlinear buckling analysis. Citation: Neubauer, M.; The findings of this study serve as a starting point for the realization of the manufacturing concept, Dannemann, M.; Kucher, M.; Bleil, N.; for the design of experimental tests of hybrid composite honeycomb core structures, and for further Wollmann, T.; Modler, N.

  • Development of a Fully-Coupled Harmonic Balance Method and A
    Development of a Fully-Coupled Harmonic Balance Method and a Refined Energy Method for the Computation of Flutter-Induced Limit Cycle Oscillations of Bladed Disks with Nonlinear Friction Contacts Christian Bertholdb, Johann Grossa, Christian Freyb, Malte Kracka aInstitute of Aircraft Propulsion Systems, University of Stuttgart, Pfaffenwaldring 6, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany [email protected], [email protected] bInstitute of Propulsion Technology, German Aerospace Center, Linder Höhe, 51147 Cologne, Germany [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Flutter stability is a dominant design constraint of modern gas and steam turbines. To further increase the feasible design space, flutter-tolerant designs are currently explored, which may undergo Limit Cycle Oscillations (LCOs) of acceptable, yet not vanishing, level. Bounded self-excited oscillations are a priori a nonlinear phenomenon, and can thus only be explained by nonlinear interactions such as dry stick-slip friction in mechanical joints. The currently available simulation methods for blade flutter account for nonlinear interactions, at most, in only one domain, the structure or the fluid, and assume the behavior in the other domain as linear. In this work, we develop a fully-coupled nonlinear frequency domain method which is capable of resolving nonlinear flow and structural effects. We demonstrate the computational performance of this method for a state-of-the-art aeroelastic model of a shrouded turbine blade row. Besides simulating limit cycles, we predict, for the first time, the phenomenon of nonlinear instability, i.e. , a situation where the equilibrium point is locally stable, but for sufficiently strong perturbation (caused e.g.

  • An Introduction to Aeroacoustics
    An introduction to aeroacoustics A. Hirschberg∗ and S.W. Rienstra∗∗ Eindhoven University of Technology, ∗Dept. of App. Physics and ∗∗Dept. of Mathematics and Comp. Science, P.O. Box 513, 5600 MB Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Email: [email protected] and [email protected] 18 Jul 2004 20:23 18 Jul 2004 1 version: 18-07-2004 1 Introduction Due to the nonlinearity of the governing equations it is very difficult to predict the sound production of fluid flows. This sound production occurs typically at high speed flows, for which nonlinear inertial terms in the equation of motion are much larger than the viscous terms (high Reynolds numbers). As sound production represents only a very minute fraction of the energy in the flow the direct prediction of sound generation is very difficult. This is particularly dramatic in free space and at low subsonic speeds. The fact that the sound field is in some sense a small perturbation of the flow, can, however, be used to obtain approximate solutions. Aero-acoustics provides such approximations and at the same time a definition of the acoustical field as an extrapolation of an ideal reference flow. The difference between the actual flow and the reference flow is identified as a source of sound. This idea was introduced by Lighthill [68, 69] who called this an analogy. A second key idea of Lighthill [69] is the use of integral equations as a formal solution. The sound field is obtained as a convolution of the Green’s function and the sound source. The Green’s function is the linear response of the reference flow, used to define the acoustical field, to an impulsive point source.

  • Computational Aeroacoustics: Progress on Nonlinear Problems of Soundgeneration Tim Coloniusa,Ã, Sanjiva K
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Progress in Aerospace Sciences 40 (2004) 345–416 Computational aeroacoustics: progress on nonlinear problems of soundgeneration Tim Coloniusa,Ã, Sanjiva K. Leleb aDepartment of Mechanical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Mail Code 104-44 Pasadena, CA 91125, USA bDepartment of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Department of Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305-4035, USA Abstract Computational approaches are being developed to study a range of problems in aeroacoustics. These aeroacoustic problems may be classifiedbasedon the physical processes responsible for the soundradiation,andrange from linear problems of radiation, refraction, and scattering in known base flows or by solid bodies, to sound generation by turbulence. In this article, we focus mainly on the challenges andsuccesses associatedwith numerically simulating soundgeneration by turbulent flows. We discuss a hierarchy of computational approaches that range from semi-empirical schemes that estimate the noise sources using mean-flow and turbulence statistics, to high-fidelity unsteady flow simulations that resolve the sound generation process by direct application of the fundamental conservation principles. We stress that high-fidelity methods such as Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) have their merits in helping to unravel the flow physics and the mechanisms of sound generation. They also provide rich databases for modeling activities that will ultimately be needed to improve existing predictive capabilities. Spatial and temporal discretization schemes that are well-suited for aeroacoustic calculations are analyzed, including the effects of artificial dispersion and dissipation on uniform and nonuniform grids. We stress the importance of the resolving power of the discretization as well as computational efficiency of the overall scheme.

  • Aerodynamics and Aeroacoustics of a Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

According to the orientation of the axis of rotation, wind turbines are classified in: Horizontal Axis Wind Turbines (HAWTs) and Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWTs). Next to the most conventional and economically feasible HAWTs, VAWTs have advantages: the intrinsic omnidirectionality of VAWTs does not require the design of yaw motors; the location of the generator on the ground leads to easier access and, consequently, lower maintenance cost [1]; they are visually more appealing and suitable for the installation into urban environments. In order to be located in an urban environment, noise regulations must be respected. For operating wind turbines, it is possible to distinguish between mechanical and aerodynamic noise sources. The first one is caused by the dynamic response of the moving mechanical components while the latter is produced by the interaction of the airflow with the blades [2]. Nowadays, the major focus is on aerodynamic noise, proving that mechanical noise has been already optimized [3]. Aerodynamic noise can be divided in: turbulent-impingement (T-I) noise and airfoil-self noise. T-I noise occurs when the incoming turbulence interacts with the blade leading edge [4][5]. In literature, there is no agreement on how to model it.

These efforts have been compiled in different reviews but most of them treated friction, wear mechanics, and acoustic noise separately. However, an in-depth review that provides a critical analysis on their interdependencies is still missing. In this review paper, the interdependencies of friction, wear, and noise are analysed in the mechanical contacts at asperitical level. The origin of frictional noise, its dependencies on contact’s mechanical properties, and its performance under different wear conditions are critically reviewed. A discussion on the existing mathematical models of friction and wear is also provided in the last section that leads to uncover the gap in the existing literature. This review concludes that still a comprehensive analytical modelling approach is required to relate the interdependencies of friction, noise, and wear with mathematical expressions. Keywords: noise; acoustic emission; wear; friction 1 Introduction computations using only the dominant harmonic components as opposed to full harmonic components Wear processes present a severe challenge in industry.
