The two-dimensional incompressible flow of a linear viscoelastic fluid we considered in this research has rapidly oscillating initial conditions which contain both the large scale and small scale information. In order to grasp this double-scale phenomenon of the complex flow, a multiscale analysis method is developed based on the mathematical homogenization theory. For the incompressible flow of a linear viscoelastic Maxwell fluid, a well-posed multiscale system, including averaged equations and cell problems, is derived by employing the appropriate multiple scale asymptotic expansions to approximate the velocity, pressure and stress fields. And then, this multiscale system is solved numerically using the pseudospectral algorithm based on a time-splitting semi-implicit influence matrix method. The comparisons between the multiscale solutions and the direct numerical simulations demonstrate that the multiscale model not only captures large scale features accurately, but also reflects kinetic interactions between the large and small scale of the incompressible flow of a linear viscoelastic fluid.

Wind-induced vibration of buildings with viscoelastic dampers are studied analytically. The added viscoelastic dampers change the damping distribution and reduce the response of buildings. The distribution of damping resistance that results from these viscoelastic dampers is known as non-classical or non-proportional. Non-classically damped structures are analyzed by state-space approach. However, this approach is complex and time-consumming compared to classical approach. This paper is aimed at the analysis of wind-induced Vibration Of buildings With Viscoelastic dampers. The Process Of State-Space approach is studied and the approximate analysis is suggested to overcome the complex and time-consuming access. For numerical certification, PSDF(Power Spectral Density Function) is obtained. Autocorrelation function is obtained in time domain and PSDF is obtained by fourier transformation of this function in frequency domain. It is found that Approximate method can give close approximation to exact solution.

In this study, a new slab system that adjoint precast slabs are connected each other by viscoelastic material is proposed and numerical analysis is performed to evaluate the effect of the slab system on the vibration and noise control. Substructuring is introduced to develope the equation of motion of the slab system and the optimal properties of viscoelastic material are calculated. For the performance evaluation of the new slab system, the sound power and acceleration of the slab are compared with those of two way slab and the slab which the viscoelastic material is not connected. Numerical results show that the sound power of the new slab system can be reduced an amount of 6dB.

Quartz crystal oscillator is frequently used in measuring a very small amount of mass attached to or adsorbed on the surface of an electrode on the quartz plate. The physical principle is that the resonance frequency of the shear vibration of the quartz caused by an applied electric field is a function of the mass. Recently, effort has been tried to measure physical properties of viscoelastic fluids, such as viscosity and shear modulus. This paper presents useful formula that can be used in estimating the properties of viscoelastic fluids. Important finding in this analysis is that the formula can produce multiple values for the physical properties of the viscoelastic materials.

Based on classical viscoelastic damper, a brand-new damper is designed by the change of simple construction to implement vibration control for both translational vibration and rotational vibration simultaneously. Theoretic analysis has been carried out on the restoring force model and the control parameters. Two improved models are presented to obtain high simulation precision. The influence of the size, shape of the viscoelastic material, the ambient temperature and the response frequency on the vibration control effect is analyzed. The numerical results show that the new type viscoelastic damper is capable of mitigating the multi-dimensional seismic response of offshore platform and the response control effect has complicated relations with aforementioned related factors.

The viscoelastic dampers are considered to be one of the most efficient means of upgrading existing structures against seismic loads. Generally in the dynamic analysis of a structure with added viscoelastic dampers the internal forces of the dampers are represented by constants that are linearly proportional to displacement and velocity. The purpose of this study is to verify the validity of the linear Kelvin model by comparing the results from the linear analysis with those obtained from the more rigorous nonlinear model such as fractional derivative model. According to the results the structural responses of 1-DOF structure obtained using the linear model are very close to those obtained from nonlinear model. However for multi-D0F structure the difference between the results from both models is enlarged as a results of the assumptions associated with the linear modeling of the viscoelastic dampers.

In this article the frequency response analysis of curved magneto-electro-viscoelastic functionally graded (CMEV-FG) nanobeams resting on viscoelastic foundation has been carried out. To this end, the study incorporates the Euler-Bernoulli beam model in association with Eringen's nonlocal theory to incorporate the size effects. The viscoelastic foundation in the current investigation is assumed to be the combination of Winkler-Pasternak layer and viscous layer of infinite parallel dashpots. The equations of motion are derived with the aid of Hamilton's principle and the solution to vibration problem of CMEV-FG nanobeams are obtained analytically. The material gradation is considered to follow Power-law rule. This study thoroughly investigates the influence of prominent parameters such as linear, shear and viscous layers of foundation, structural damping coefficient, opening angle, magneto-electrical field, nonlocal parameter, power-law exponent and slenderness ratio on the frequencies of FG nanobeams.

This paper deals with the stress singularity induced at the interface corner between the viscoelastic thin film and the rigid substrate subjected to uniform temperature change. The viscoelastic film has been assumed to be thermorheologically simple. The time-domain boundary element method(BEM) has been employed to investigate the behavior of interface stresses. The order of the free-edge singularity has been obtained numerically for a given viscoelastic model. It is shown that the free-edge stress intensity factor is relaxed with time, while the order of the singularity increases with time for the viscoelastic model considered.

PURPOSES: A viscoelastic axisymmetric finite element analysis code has been developed for stress analysis of asphalt pavement structures. METHODS: Generalized Maxwell Model (GMM) and 4-node isoparametric element were employed for finite element formulation. The code was developed using $C^{+}^{+}$ computer program language and named as KICTPAVE. For the verification of the developed code, a structural model of a pavement system was constructed. The structural model was composed of three layers: asphalt layer, crushed stone layer, and soil subgrade. Two types of analysis were considered for the verification: (1)elastic static analysis, (2)viscoelastic time-dependent analysis. For the elastic static analysis, linear elastic material model was assigned to all the layers, and a static load was applied to the structural model. For the viscoelastic time-dependent analysis, GMM and linear elastic material model were assigned to the asphalt layer and all the other layers respectively, and a cyclic loading condition was applied to the structural model. RESULTS: The stresses and deformations from KICTPAVE were compared with those from ABAQUS. The analysis results obtained from the two codes showed good agreement in time-dependent response of the element under the loading area as well as the surface deformation of asphalt layer, and horizontal and vertical stresses along the axisymmetric axis. CONCLUSIONS: The validity of KICTPAVE was confirmed by showing the agreement of the analysis results from the two codes.

The MEMS structures usually are made from silicon; consideration of the viscoelastic effect in microbeams duo to the phenomena of silicon creep is necessary. Application of the fractional model of microbeams made from viscoelastic materials is studied in this paper. Quasi-static and dynamical responses of an electrically actuated viscoelastic microbeam are investigated. For this purpose, a nonlinear finite element formulation of viscoelastic beams in combination with the fractional derivative constitutive equations is elucidated. The four-parameter fractional derivative model is used to describe the constitutive equations. The electric force acting on the microbeam is introduced and numerical methods for solving the nonlinear algebraic equation of quasi-static response and nonlinear equation of motion of dynamical response are described. The deflected configurations of a microbeam for different purely DC voltages and the tip displacement of the microbeam under a combined DC and AC voltages are presented. The validity of the present analysis is confirmed by comparing the results with those of the corresponding cases available in the literature.
