Features of complex vibrations of flexible micropolar mesh panels

In this paper, a mathematical model of complex oscillations of a flexible micropolar cylindrical mesh structure is constructed. Equations are written in displacements. Geometric nonlinearity is taken into account according to the Theodore von Karman model. A non-classical continual model of a panel based on a Cosserat medium with constrained particle rotation (pseudocontinuum) is considered. It is assumed that the fields of displacements and rotations are not independent. An additional independent material parameter of length associated with a symmetric tensor by a rotation gradient is introduced into consideration. The equations of motion of a panel element, the boundary and initial conditions are obtained from the Ostrogradsky – Hamilton variational principle based on the Kirchhoff – Love’s kinematic hypotheses. It is assumed that the cylindrical panel consists of n families of edges of the same material, each of which is characterized by an inclination angle relative to the positive direction of the axis directed along the length of the panel and the distance between adjacent edges. The material is isotropic, elastic and obeys Hooke’s law. To homogenize the rib system over the panel surface, the G. I. Pshenichnov continuous model is used. The dissipative mechanical system is considered. The differential problem in partial derivatives is reduced to an ordinary differential problem with respect to spatial coordinates by the Bubnov – Galerkin method in higher approximations. The Cauchy problem is solved by the Runge – Kutta method of the 4th order of accuracy. Using the establishment method, a study of grid geometry influence and taking account of micropolar theory on the behavior of a grid plate consisting of two families of mutually perpendicular edges was conducted.
