Abstract-The title problem is analysed on the basis of a rigorous finite deformation theory of elasticity. The material of the tube is considered incompressible and of Mooney-Rivlin type. The governink equation is that of Knowles simplified to thin-walled tubes. An exact solution is found for a general forcing function, and specific cases are investigated involving: free oscillations, Heaviside type step load, blast load, harmonic load and periodic step pulse load. The method permits an explicit derivation of displacement and stress fields undetermined in the earlier work. A numerical example is solved and graphs are given for harmonic forcing function. It appears that the actual oscillations display two separate components: a high speed fluctuation component (almost negligible) related to free oscillatory motions, and a low speed fluctuation component (dominant, with large amplitude). 1. INTRODUCTION

the theory of finite elastic deformations has a rather long history, the associated dynamic phenomena have mostly been analysed with relation to the propagation of discontinuities in infinite media. The work, originated with the classical investigations of Hadamard, was extended and enriched in recent years by important contributions of Ericksen, Truesdell, Nell, Toupin, Hill, John and others& The first dynamic problem in finite elasticity of bounded media found its explicit solution in two remarkable papers by Knowles published in 1960 [4] and 1962 [S] . I/ and analysing large amplitude radial oscillations of a thick-walled circular cylinder. Due to the assumed incompressibility of the material, the problem could be reduced to that of an autonomous motion of a system with a single degree of freedom. Two cases were discussed: free oscillations and a motion resulting from suddenly applied and subsequently maintained uniform surface pressures. Knowles dynamic problem was later placed as a particular item upon a broad list of quasi-equilibrated motions of incompressible bodies established by Truesdell tt Guided by a remark of Heng and Sole& [7] and independently Knowles and Jakub [8] investigated finite radial oscillations of spherical bodies. Wang [9] treated a similar problem for a thin-walled shell. Finite longitudinal shear (telescopic) oscillations of thick-walled tubes were first studied by Nowinski and Schultz [ 10,111. A similar problem was recently recognised by Wang [12]. An inspection of Knowles’s two papers concerning hollow circular cylinders makes it 7 Research supported partially by the National Science Foundation and by the Themis project. ALTHOUGH

evident that the author’s interest was primarily centered on the period of motions, for which he derived both the general equation and the explicit equation for the thin-walled shell of Mooney-Rivlin material. The actual displacements (and consequently the state of stress) were not determined. It is, however, apparent that in a number of instances information on the intensity of the displacement and stress fields may be desired. This incompleteness was partially removed in a paper by Nowinski and Wang [ 131, in which, by means of Galerkin’s procedure, an approximate equation for the displacements of a tube of arbitrary wall thickness, undergoing free large amplitude radial oscillations, was derived. It is the purpose of the present note to furnish an explicit exact solution for the displacement and stress fields in a thin-walled tube, subjected to forced finite radial oscillations generated by arbitrary time varying pressures. The material of the tube is considered incompressible and of Mooney-Rivlin type. The governing equation is the one derived originally by Knowles for a thick-walled tube if simplified to a thin wall. A solution to this equation is found for a general periodic forcing function. Specific solutions are investigated for free oscillatory motions (Knowles, and Nowinski and Wang case), for a Heaviside step loading, for a blast loading, a harmonically varying load and a periodic step pulse loading As already mentioned, the method permits an explicit derivation of the displacement field (and, consequently of the stress field) undetermined in the earlier work. A numerical example is solved and graphs are given for the displacement and pressure fluctuation versus time, for various values of the parameter characterizing the ratio of pressure to material characteristics and geometry of the tube. It appears that the actual oscillations display two distinct components : one, called high speed fluctuation component of small amplitude, and the other--low speed fluctuation component of large amplitude. The first bears relation to the free oscillatory (may be called “natural”) motions of the tube, and represents some kind of (almost negligible) ripples on the second dominant component linked to the forcing load. 2. GOVERNING

EQUATION

Consider a cylindrical coordinate system fixed in space, whose z-axis coincides with the longitudinal axis of an infinite circular tube of arbitrary thickness and of inner and outer radii R, and R,, respectively, both in the unstressed state. The material of the tube is hyperelastic, isotropic and incompressible and a generic particle of the medium which at time c has the coordinates r, C#J,z, is assumed to be, in the unstressed state, at the point R, 4, z. It follows that the motion of the tube is axially symmetric and entirely described by the function r = r (R, t). We assume that the (purely radial) motions of the tube are periodic, of arbitrary magnitude and induced by time dependent hydrostatic surface pressures P,(t) and P2(t) on the inner and outer curved surface of the tube, respectively. For an incompressible material of mass density p, the associated governing equation of motion was originally derived by Knowles [4]. If the hyperelastic material of the tube is specialized to a rubber-like material, whose strain-energy function is of the Mooney-Rivlin type, the corresponding equation takes the form x($)ln(l

and was used in [ 131 with a vanishing forcing term to analyse free oscillatory motions. The last equation is of the form d’x(t) dt2 + P*(t) x(t) - Kx(t)- 3 = 0, and can be supplemented by the initial conditions x(0) = x0,

1(O) = xb,

(2.5)

with a dot as time derivative, and x0 and xb as the initial displacement and velocity at the inner surface of the tube. According to a paper by Pinney [14], the solution of the initial value problem (2.4), (2.5) has the form x(t) = [u’(t) ; KW2u2(t)]f,

the symbol W denotes the Wronskian of the problem (ut; - tie) which, in the present case, is equal to a non-zero constant. It follows, that whatever the function P*(t), that is whatever the forcing function, the problem can be reduced to a linear problem represented by a linear differential equation with a variable coefficient. In particular, for periodic functions P*(t), associated with forced periodic motions, equation (2.7) becomes that of a general Hill’s type [15, p. 21 and can be solved explicitly. 3. SOLUTION A. Let

For xb = 0, the last equation reduces to the one derived directly for free oscillatory motions in [13, equation (2.2)]. It is apparent that in the latter case the period of oscillations is (3.5) as derived in [4, equation (6.7)] in the limiting case of a thin-walled shell. The usefulness of the present solution, however, consists in that it furnishes, as already mentioned, the explicit solution for the displacement field (3.4) and eventually for the stress field. B.

In the last equation the term O(l/y3) can be neglected, due to the fact that K is of the order of E/p, which is generally a large number in the system of in.lb.sec. units adopted in the present paper. Clearly wo, wi and w1 are functions of time to be determined later. At this junction it is instrumental to model the solution on the procedure given by McLachlan in [15].

This result completes the solution of the general problem discussed in this subsection. Note that since at time t = 0 the tube is under a pressure equal to A$(O), the x0 represents the displacement associated with the static case, in which a uniform pressure equal to A+(O) is applied. It is easily found from equation (2.1) that in the case of a thin shell (3.52)

with the notation a = A/K. It is evident that the periodic solutions are stable if, and only if, K > A. From the last equation there follows that the oscillations can be decomposed into two components: one-a high speed fluctuation component, seemingly related to the natural oscillations of the tube, and another-a low speed fluctuation component related to the forcing function .t The frequency of the high speed fluctuation component is defined by _f = f

Again, by the high speed periodicity of x(t) is meant here the reciprocal of (3.54). In the case in which the forcing function vanishes (A = 0), equation (3.54) reduces to the one derived directly by Knowles for a freely oscillating tube [4, equation (1.7)]. Note that the low speed fluctuation component of x(t) is periodic and has the same period pxct, as the applied pressure, so that 2x Pxw = w

Variations of the square of the inner radius of the tube x(t), and of the reduced pressure for various values of o! are shown in a representative diagram in Fig. 1. It is seen that in the scale used, the high speed fluctuation component of the oscillations is not discernible, and the graphs seem to represent perfectly smooth curves. With an increasing value of ol the amplitude of both the reduced pressure and the displacement increase. The increase and its rate are different for the expansion and the contraction periods of the tube, in the sense that it is harder for the tube to contract than to expand. Such a behavior is rather understandable from the physical point of view. The amplitude of the expansion mode is always larger than the one of the contraction mode, but this difference decreases with a decreasing pressure.

This result, confirmed above, reveals an interesting fact that a sudden application of load sets the tube into a periodic motion with the period of oscillations of the order of nK-*, which is very small for practical purposes. The last quantity is equal to the period of natural oscillations of a thin-walled tube. A similar result was found in the subsection D, in the case of a sinusoidal loading, where the effect of high speed fluctuations was shown to be negligible, as compared with the low speed component of motion. In the sinusoidal loading case, the period of high speed vibrations is [cf. equation (3.54)], T = KK-*

In order to investigate the low speed periodicity of x(t), let us return to the equation (2.3). In view of the equation (2.7) and the boundary conditions (3.57) we arrive at a solution for the displacement field in the form, x(t) =

2/S - P*(t) p*(t) ]coS[4(K-~)lff~. i 2[pK - P*(t)] - [ 2[pK - P*(t)]

where E = P,IyK. From the last equation it is clear that the actual motion represents a coupled motion which, as stated earlier, consists of two periodic components. Its high speed component has the period [see (3.69)], (3.70) which itself is a periodic function of time, with the period T* equal to period of applied loading. The low speed component has a constant period equal to T*. It is easy to show that the equation (3.66) reduces to equation (3.70), when the thickness of the wall of the shell p + 0. It seems, therefore, conceivable to obtain an approximate solution for a tube of arbitrary wall thickness subjected to a periodic pulse loading, by inserting the exact expression for the period of oscillations of such a tube, equation (3.66), into the equation (3.69). In this way we obtain an approximation to the complete solution for a tube of arbitrary thickness, in an explicit form x(t) =

analyse. le problbme du titre eh partant de la thCorie de l’tlasticit6 rigoureuse pour les dfformations finies. On consid&e le mat&au du tube incompressible et du type Mooney-Rivlin. L’&uation fondamentale est celle de Knowles simplifiQ pour des tubes minces. On trouve la solution exacte pour une vibration for& g&&rale e.t on Ctudie des cas particuliers faisant intervenir : les oscillations libres, une charge en escalier du type Heaviside, une explosion, une charge harmonique et une charge avec des impulsions p&iodiques. La m&hode permet un calcul explicite des champs de ddplacement et de contraintes rest& indCterminb dans le travail prbc&-lent. On r&out un exemple numtrique et on donne des graphes pour des vibrations for&es harmoniques. 11apparalt que les oscillations rklles pr&entent deux composantes sCparCes: une composante a fluctuation rapide (presque negligeable) relib aux mouvements P oscillations libres et une composante & fluctuation lente (dominante et d’amplitude BevQ). Zos;lmwnfassmg-Das in der uberschrift erwtinte Problem tird unter Zugrundelegung einer rigorosen Elastizit&stheorie endlicher Verformung untersucht Dabei wird angenommen, dass das Material des Rohres inkompressibel und vom Mooney-Rivlin Typ ist Die Hauptgleichung ist diejenige von Knowles, vereinfacht fur dilnnwandige Rohre. Fur eine allgemeine Druckfunktion wird eine exakte Lbsung gefunden, und einige spezielle Fiille werden untersucht, unter anderen : freie Schwingungen, eine Stufenbelastung vom Heaviside Typ, eine Explosionsbelastung, eine harmonische Belastung- und eine periodische Stufenimpuls Belastung Die Methode erlaubt eine explizite Herleitung der Verschiebungs- und Spannungsfelder, die in der friiheren Arbeit unbestimmt waren, Ein numerisches &spiel wird gel&t, und Diagramme fur harmonische Druckfunktionen werden dargestellt Es stellt sich heraus, dass die tatsiichlichen Schwingungen zwei getrennte Komponenten aufweisen: eine schnelle Fluktuationskomponente (kann beinahe vernachltisigt werden), die mit den freien oszillierenden Bewegungen in Verbindung steht, und eine langsame Fluktuationskomponente (vorherrschend, mit grosser Amplitude) .&EEOTaqRsI-&yYeHne npo6nern B~Hy?U~eliHbIX panHaJlbHhIX Hone6aHu# 6OnbmO# aMnnUTyAM TOHKOfil%nepynpyrOfi Tpy6bl OCHOBaHOHa CTpOl’OfiTeOpllM ynpyrOCTU RJlfl KOHe’lHblX&IOpMal@.
