Localized oscillation of an Euler--Bernoulli beam with time-varying parameters on a visco-elastic foundation: asymptotics, adiabatic invariant, and equivalent Hamiltonian system

We consider localized oscillation of an Euler--Bernoulli beam on a visco-elastic foundation coupled to a damped discrete oscillator. All parameters of the system independently vary in time in a slow manner. For the conservative case, we use three various analytic approaches. Namely, these are asymptotics, the method based on the adiabatic invariance of the action of a trapped wave, and the consideration of the equivalent Hamiltonian system. All approaches result in the same formula for the amplitude of oscillation. In the dissipative case, we obtain the amplitude of oscillation only utilizing the asymptotic approach.

Universal formal asymptotics for localized oscillation of a discrete mass-spring-damper system of time-varying properties, embedded into a one-dimensional medium described by the telegraph equation with variable coefficients

We consider a quite general problem concerning a linear free oscillation of a discrete mass-spring-damper system. This discrete sub-system is embedded into a one-dimensional continuum medium described by the linear telegraph equation. In a particular case, the discrete sub-system can move along the continuum one at a sub-critical speed. Provided that the dissipation in both discrete and continuum sub-systems is absent, if parameters of the sub-systems are constants, under certain conditions (the localization conditions), a non-vanishing oscillation localized near the discrete sub-system can be possible. In the paper we assume that the dissipation in the damper and the medium is small, and all discrete-continuum system parameters are slowly varying functions in time and in space (when applicable), such that the localization condition is fulfilled for the instantaneous values of the parameters in a certain neighbourhood of the discrete sub-system position. This general statement can describe a number of mechanical systems of various nature. We derive the expression for the leading-order term of a universal asymptotics, which describes a localized oscillation of the discrete sub-system. In the non-dissipative case, the leading-order term of the expansion for the amplitude is found in the form of an algebraic expression, which involves the instantaneous values of the system parameters. In the dissipative case, the leading-order term for the amplitude, generally, is found in quadratures in the form of a functional, which depends on the history of the system parameters, though in some exceptional cases the result can be obtained as a function of time and the instantaneous limiting values of the system parameters. Finally, we have justified the universal asymptotics by numerical calculations for some particular cases.

The anti-localization of non-stationary linear waves and its relation to the localization. The simplest illustrative problem

We introduce a new wave phenomenon, which can be observed in continuum and discrete systems, where a trapped mode exists under certain conditions, namely, the anti-localization of non-stationary linear waves. This is zeroing of the non-localized propagating component of the wave-field in a neighbourhood of an inclusion. In other words, it is a tendency for non-stationary waves to propagate avoiding a neighbourhood of an inclusion. The anti-localization is caused by a destructive interference of the harmonics involved into the representation of the solution in the form of a Fourier integral. The anti-localization is associated with the waves from the pass-band, whereas the localization related with a trapped mode is due to poles inside the stop-band. In the framework of a simple illustrative problem considered in the paper, we have demonstrated that the anti-localization exists for all cases excepting the boundary of the domain in the parameter space where the wave localization occurs. Thus, the anti-localization can be observed in the absence of the localization as well as together with the localization. We also investigate the influence of the anti-localization on the wave-field in whole.

Passage through a resonance for a mechanical system, having time-varying parameters and possessing a single trapped mode. The principal term of the resonant solution

We consider a forced oscillation and passage through resonance for an infinite-length system, having time-varying parameters and possessing a single trapped mode. The system is a string, lying on the Winkler foundation and equipped with a discrete linear mass-spring oscillator of time-varying stiffness. We obtain the principal term of the asymptotic expansion for the resonant solution describing the motion of the inclusion (i.e., the mass-spring oscillator). The obtained result was verified by independent numerical calculations based on solution of the corresponding partial differential equation by means of the method of finite differences. The comparison demonstrates a good agreement in a neighbourhood of the instant of resonance.
