Vibration Characteristics of the Bearing Rotor Shaft

Karrar Baher, Qasim A. Atiyah, Imad A. Abdulsahib

Pages: 49-54

PDF Full Text
Abstract

In this work, the vibrations in the rotor-bearing system are studied experimentally and theoretically using ANSYS Workbench 2020 R1 software to compute the natural frequencies and mode shapes. In the experimental part, the LABVIEW software was used to examine the signal of the frequency domain values obtained from the accelerometer sensors, based on Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) technology and dynamic response spectrum. in the theoretical part, the natural frequencies are determined based on the finite element method for analyzing the system and knowing its behavior and vibration response level. The results showed that the level of vibration becomes higher at high rotational speeds, and it becomes large when the distances between the bearings are large, according to the bearing position and type used in the system. in this work can be concluded, the system is usually affected by the dynamic response around it and is difficult to separate from it, and the vibrations in the system can be controlled by adding an external damping source, which gives the system more stable. A system operating at high speeds can give a large vibration and an unbalanced response.

Fatigue and Vibration Parameters Improvement of Steel DIN 41Cr4 by Ultrasonic Shock Peening Treatment

Zeina Shaker Mahmood, Jumaa Salman Chiad

Pages: 233-239

PDF Full Text
Abstract

The effects of the ultrasonic peening treatment (UPT) on the rotating bending fatigue behavior and the behavior of the vibrations of alloy steel DIN 41Cr4 were studied. Hardness test, Tensile test, Constant amplitude fatigue tests, and the vibrations measurements have been carried out on the specimens. Also, the fracture surface was examined and analyzed by a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The results of the investigations, e.g. stress to number of cycles to failure (S-N) curves, fatigue strength improvement factor was 7%. The decreasing percentage of maximum Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) acceleration of the ultrasonic peened condition compared to the untreated conditions was 45%.

Flow Induced Vibration for Different Support Pipe and Liquids: A review

Ansam Adil Mohammed, Ayad Mohammed Salman, Mustafa Saad Ayoub

Pages: 83-95

PDF Full Text
Abstract

This study aims to review flow-induced vibration one of the repercussions of vibrations is caused by fluid movement. In general, the investigation of the structure of the systems affects the efficiency of the components that construct those systems. This review examined the influence of generated vibrations and internal pressure on fluid transport pipes using theoretical calculations, practical tests, and numerical analysis to identify and test the dynamic behavior of static fluid transport pipes. The experimental study considered the natural frequencies caused by the fluid pressure effect under various stability situations. The flow of all liquids, such as oil, water, gas, air, and vapors, through the pipes, was tested, and the mathematical models were correctly adjusted. All empirical, theoretical, numerical, and analytical research agrees that several approaches exist to develop, modify, and improve these metrics. However, one factor affecting rheological measurements is vibration, which was addressed as needed in the middle of the 20th century due to major discoveries that damage could be rooted in vibration. Established on the determinations, they provided mathematical models paired with pressure and velocity measurements of moving fluids and the influence of produced or uninduced vibration. This study demonstrates that additional empirical investigations, particularly more detailed analytical methodologies, are urgently required to produce better findings.

State of the Art on Retrofitting of Fatigue Damaged Concrete Structures

Shiemaa Taha Yas, Laith Khalid Al-Hadithy

Pages: 279-286

PDF Full Text
Abstract

This article provides a general up to date review of the investigation on performances and resistances of plain and fiber containing concrete structures under periodical loadings of long endurance up to fatigue failure.  Structures are almost, under the frequent influences of repeated loadings such as vibrations of rotary machines, sea /river waves, wind, earthquakes and moving vehicles. Long term application of cyclic loading leads to continually slow rate degradation of the structure rigidity leading to fatigue damage. In spite of the dominant usage of concrete, worldwide, as a building material, its fatigue behavior is not straight forward. In addition, this lack of comparison is confronted for fiber fortified concrete. The article also presently a survey of the available techniques for monitoring and measurement of fatigue impressions in concrete structures founded both their impact within the treatise domain and the non-destructive inspection. Those technical means are classified into, at least, two designations, specifically, the monitoring of fatigue induced cracking and the detection of fatigue charged damage. Those techniques parameters, evaluate the changes in the mechanical and physical materials properties during the fatigue endurance, are distantly reviewed in concern of the mechanism creating the change, shortcomings, constraints, etc. The merits, dependency, feasibility, disadvantages and limitations of each technique are assessed and compared to make an index to select the appropriated e technique for fatigues fracture or failure inspection of the type fibered or not of structural concrete
