Session Objective
To illustrate the principles of Structural Vibrations To illustrate application of Vibration Principles in the design of aircraft Structures
1.1 Introduction
(1) Some Basic Terms Vibration : Any to and fro motion is called Vibration Ex: Sea waves, Simple pendulum Simple Harmonic Motion: Motion of the projection Q of a point P moving on a circle at a uniform angular velocity - on the diameter. y y = A sin Q * P =t . A y = - A cos .. 2 A sin y=- x 2 y =..+ y = 0 2 y
1.1 Introduction
Amplitude of Vibration : A Period : Time required for repeating a cycle Frequency : f No of cycles per second = 1/ =2f Phase angle: angle between 2 vectors rotating at same speed

(2) Some useful Vibrations : Musical notes; Sieving machine Some harmful Vibrations: Earth quake; Rotor unbalance (3) Types of Vibrations (i) Free vibration: Vibration that takes place after an externally applied disturbance seizes. (ii) Forced vibration: Vibration that takes place during the application of an external dynamic load (a) Sinusoidal vibrations : Ex; Motor unbalance (b) Transient vibrations vary in magnitude with time and act for a specific time: Ex; Rocket motor firing (c) Random vibrations characterized by statistical quantities: Ex; earth quake

1.1 Introduction
(4) Important Components in Vibration: (a) Stiffness K : Elasticity of the elements (b) Mass M : Density of the material and objects (c) Damping C : Due to intermolecular action in material, friction in joints, specifically dampers (d) Dynamic load : time dependent (5) Classification of Structures for the Present Study (a) Single degree of freedom systems (b) Two degree of freedom systems (c) Continuous systems: Ex beams, plates, shells (d) Multi degree of freedom systems
1.1 Introduction
(6) Importance of Vibrations in Aircraft Design The airplane structure being light weight and flexible is very susceptible to vibrations and noise transmission. The noise and vibration have to be reduced in commercial planes if they have to be competitive with other transport. The source of noise are generally the propeller, engines and aerodynamic forces. It is better to isolate such disturbances from getting transmitted to airframe. Equipment mounted in airplanes must be prevented from excessive vibrations which can lead to malfunction or strength or fatigue failures. Aerodynamic forces can induce high amplitude vibrations which can damage the structural components like nose wheel doors. They can also result in increasing loads on deflected surfaces like wings causing instability and failures

fn = 1/(2 ). (k/m) cycles/sec Alternatively: If W is the weight of the mass m and gravity g acts in the direction x, the static deflection of the weight is given by = W/k where W = mg fn = 1/(2 ). (g/ ) This expression is seen to be a good approximation for natural frequency of even quite complex structures also, if is interpreted as the maximum deflection under 1g load.

ft = 1/(2 ). (kt/I) cycles/sec Alternatively: If T is the torque given to a mass moment of inertia I at an angular acceleration , the static rotation of the inertial body is given by = T/kt where T = I ft = 1/(2 ). (/)

The solution is given by [K - n2 M] X = 0 Where n2 is a diagonal matrix of eigen values or natural frequencies and X is matrix whose columns are corresponding eigen vectors.

The maximum displacement = x2 = (W1/k1) + (1/k1 + 1/k2)W2 The natural frequency f1 = 1/(2 ). (g/ ) For the example problem = 3.5 mm and f1 = 8.5 Hz
