EUSTIS DIRECTORATE POSITION STATEMENT :

The data contained In this report are the results of an effort designed to improve the state of the art of elastomeric bearing design for helicopter rotor head applications. The products of this effort are a design manual and a computer program based on finite- element techniques. The results of this program are contained in the following four volumes:

Volume I - Final Report Volume II • Design Manual Volume III • Program User's Manual Volume IV - Programmer's Manual

Volume I contains the development and background information used in producing the design manual.

Volume II presents design considerations and procedures, bearing applications, methods of analysis, and techniques for predicting bearing performance.

Volumes III and IV contain the computer code and examples of problems showing sample inputs and outputs.

The products of this effort provide a good foundation for building a comprehensive manual and computer code for the design and analysis of elastomeric bearings for helicopter rotor head applications. It was recognized at the onset of this program that both the manual and the code would be first editions. The results of this effort were expected to define areas requiring further development. Further investigations coupled with feedback from users and/or evaluators are expected to provide material for upgrading the content and format of the manual and codes.

Mr. John Sobczak of the Military Operations Technology Division served as project engineer for this effort.

HETHQP

The theoretical basis of the program and is not repeated in this manual.

is contained in Volume I

Variable dimensions of the grid have been used throughout so that any size problem can be run If sufficient computer size and time are available.

The solution scheme is a Gaussian reduction, answers with reasonably short run times.

This gives good

The program may be run as a standard axlsymmetric program giving either one or both of the axisymmetrlc or torsion solutions. Multiple passes may be made through the program Inputting the proper load coefficients to gain an asymmetric loading solution. The accumulation routine will accumulate the displacements and strains for all harmonics to give the final solution.

The program is a finite-element program. To solve for the displacements« stresses and strains throughout a body« it is divided into many small pieces called elements by defining a grid network of nodes over a cross section of the body. For each element« a stiffness matrix is defined according to the basic assumptions for that element. A force vector Is created by applying the pressures and loads to the nodes. The element stiffness matrices and force vectors are then assembled Into a master set of equations/ and the equations are solved using a Gaussian reduction technique. This method of solution has been extensively used at Thlokol for many years and has yielded good answers in reasonably short run times.

There are two basic elements available In this program/ and one or the other must be selected In the RUN Input section. The first Is the linear displacement element. The assumption for It is that the displacements are a linear function through the element. This element Is used for the basic axisymmetrlc runs, the asymmetric loading runs and the torsion runs.

The second element Is the isoparametric element. It is a quadratic element where the displacements are assumed to be a quadratic function through the element. This element will In general give better results for the same size or a smaller grid. It has not, however/ been as extensively used as the 11near element.

In the Type of Material section, there are five element types given. Types I, 2, k and 5 are all linear elements and differ only In the number of degrees of freedom they can handle.

LOAD. DEFINITIONS

For the single-pass, axlsymmetric run, loads are Input directly as they apply to the entire body of revolution.

For asymmetric loading, a Fourier expansion of the form

M M f(e) ■ A0 ♦ L An cos n0 + Z R_ sin n0

n»! ' n»l n

must be generated, where N Is the number of terms needed to accurately represent the load. All loads are defined In terms of this function of theta. The loads are then Input with the constant term Ap In the first pass and either An or On being entered for the n+lst pass.

The assumption Is Implicit In the program that the loads are symmetric about the 0 - 180 plane through the body. Because of this symmetry, the radial and axial loads can go in only as an even function and the tangential loads only as an odd function. That Is, only the A terns can be used for R or Z loads, and only the B terms can be used for the e loads.

The units of the function f and the coefficients A and B must be In pounds per square Inch for pressure, or pounds for nodal point load, over the entire surface affected.

Pressure, shear and traction loads act on the entire surface of revolution on which they are applied. That is, the total load is equal to n DLP where D Is the diameter, L the lenr.th, and P the pressure or shear.

Nodal point forces apply a load directly to a point and are not distributed over any surface. They are a load on a ring as the loaded point is revolved about the axis.

See Appendix B for the description of a program to generate the Fourier coefficients.

PROGRAM CQQRPINATES

The normal orientation of the coordinate system Is with the R-axis horizontal and the Z-axis vertical. This is referred to here as a right-handed system; that is, R rotated into Z gives a vector out of the paper.

The Indexing system of the program can also be layed out as a coordinate system. 3y definition, a right-handed system is one in which the I axis rotated into the J axis gives a vector out of the papor.

The two systems, coordinate and Indexing, must always agree. That Is, they must both be either right-handed or left-handed. If one Is right and the other left, the program v/ill give negative area errors on the grid and stop execution.

All angles in the system are measured from the positive R axis counterclockwise in the right-handed system. If the system is transformed, this relative orientation must be maintained.

There are "local origins" referred to In the Input section. These are simply temporary origins to aid In the designating of that one node or line. The point will be translated back into the global coordinate system by adding the coordinates of the local origin to the coordinates of the point.

Hü Uil£ GENERATOR

By means of the Line Generator Record, line and arc segments may be generated Internally to connect any* two points with a set of nodes. The following options are available:

A. Equal Interval - In the straight line all Intervals between nodes are equal. In an arc the angular Intervals are equal.

B. Square root of r - Where N Is the total number of intervals and I goes from 1 to fJ-1, each Interval Is (2i-l)/N2 of the total length. Fora line, this is an Increment of length; for an arc. It is an angular interval.

C. Geometric progression - The increments of length or angle will be in a geometric progression. Any of r (the common ratio), a (the first Interval), or I (the last Interval) may be specified. In addition, the second node in the line may be specified and r will be calculated using the interval from the first node to the second node of the line ns a.

Any of these options may be used to generate any line in the figure. The lines may go in either ascending or descending order of I or J.

«Either I or J must be constant for all the nodes in a line or arc.

Uli QMH GENERATOR

The grid generator used in this program is one developed at Thiokol by Dr. William Cook.* This Is a linear Interpolation method which yields a good grid under most conditions regardless of the curvature of the boundaries.

A two-dimensional space Is defined In £ and q, and the grid boundary nodes are mapped Into this space. A linear Interpolation scheme Is then used to fill In the remainder of the £ / ^ space. Two functions, f and g, are then defined that map the ?, T\ space Into the X^Y space of the grid. These functions are then used to define the remainder of the grid.

There may be any number of major partitions In the grid and any number of subpartitions within each of these.

A major partition Is defined as a closed rectangular section of matrix (the figure may be of any shape, but the section of matrix must be capable of being defined by a minimum and maximum of I and J), all of which will be generated by one and only one grid generation record. The subpartitions are closed rectangular sections of matrix lying within the major partition.

All boundaries of each partition must be completely specified, and there must be no nodes specified that do not lie on the boundaries of a partition.

Each major partition must be specified on a Grid Generator Record, but the program will pick up all subpartitions lying within the specified major partition.

Due to the nature of the Cook grid generator, the following restrictions must be observed when using It:

1. All sections of the matrix that are to be generated by It must be rectangular and the boundaries must be completely defined.

2. If Interior nodes are specified, they must form rectangular subsections of the section of matrix being generated. There Is no limit to the number of such subsections allowed.

INPUTTING THE PROGRAM

There are several things about the program that you should be aware of as you set up your Input. The sections below define both general things to keep In mind and the specific methods of Input required for the various options. For additional information, see Vol II of this report.

i General

The RUN section must always be used to specify both the geometry type and the element type. in this version of the program, the geometry type Is alv/ays ax'symmetric (option 3). The element type can be either linear displacement (option k) or Isoparametric (option 5).

Each node defines an element, except for Isoparameterlc, where it is every other node. The elements are referenced by the node with the smallest Indices of the nodes comprising the element. Those nodes v/hich lie on the boundary of the geometry and do not reference a real element are given a type code of 9, which signifies a missing element. This type code of 9 is also used to code an internal element which has no material In It. Type 9 elements require no material code, and this can be set to 0 or left blank.

Plots can be produced quite simply by specifying the orientation desired, the range of Indices of the nodes to be plotted, and the Y paper size. The data will then be scaled to fit the paper height, and the same scale factor will be used for the X direction. The actual scale values used, the minimum values and the maximum values, if calculated, will be printed when each plot is produced.

Several Input sections use index Increments referred to as II and Jl . The value 11 Is an I Index Increment, that Is, we go from II to 12 In Increments of II. The value Jl Is a J Index Increment, and we go from Jl to J2 In Increments of Jl. For example. If we have a grid where ve have material 1 In the elements with an even J Index and material 2 In the elements with an odd J Index, we can apply these In only 2 records by using a Jl of 2. Another example of its use Is In the Isoparametric Input. This Is explained more fully in section VII below.

^\

I I Ib£ ßflslc Axisvmmetric Problem

This is the case for which there are no iterations and the basic linear displacement elenent is being used. The RUN section must show this by inputting options 3 and i».

I I I Asymmetric Loadinti

The asymmetric loading of an axisymmetric body is accomplished by making multiple passes through the program v/ithin one run. Each pass has the harmonic coefficients for one term in the Fourier expansion entered as load conditions. Run option 9/ asymmetric loading, must be specified in each pass.

The node number, Lll in the General Data, and the highest harmonic allowed, L12 in the General Data, must both be specified in each pass, and the highest harmonic allowed must be nonzero.

The accumulation of the output is necessary for proper interpretation of the results. Fach pass will ilive results that are the maximum for each coordinate direction. These values have meaning only when multiplied by the proper sine and cosine terms nnd added to the other terms for that node or element.

The undeformed geometry can be plotted at any time In the run. Accumulation and plotting of the deformed geometry must be In the last pass only. Plots can be made of the displaced geometry at any angle 0 or axial location 1 by accumulating the data where desired and then Inputting a plot section immediately after. The plot routines will always plot the last data accumulated. See the sample input for an example of this.

IV Incremental LflfldllLS

When this option Is used, the program automatically cycles through as many ttnos as there are load Increments. The cumulative totals of the displacements and strains may be printed out for each Increment under the control of the Selective print option. The print suppress option (output option 1) and the Selective print section control the output of the final results, and the Incremental loading print flag with the Selective print option controls all others.

All loads and boundary conditions may be increments. The fraction of the load to in each step may be specified, or on increments will be calculated in an progression.

applied in be applied a flajj the ari thmetic

A set of flags is provided so that specified loads may not be applied incrementally.

Each iteration is handled essentially as a separate run with the program looping through the entire solution scheme. The displaced geometry reflecting all the previous loading is used in each iteration so that stiffness due to bending will be taken into cons ideration.

LaLM Deformation

the The use of this option takes into consideration nonlinear terms In the strain displacement relationship and iterates for the final solution. You can also enter strain dependent material properties to take Into consideration the nonlinear material behavior.

A Convergence criteria and a series of underrelaxation factors must be entered. The underrelaxation factors must be positive values no greater than 1.0, and at least the last two values must be 1.0, The program will iterate until convergence or the maximum number of iterations is sat Isfled.

As in the incremental loading option, the print suppress flag controls the final output and the large deformation print flag controls all others.

The energy calculation, reaction check are not valid for this allowed.

These two options may be combined to allow a large deformation iteration Inside each incremental loading loop. The controls on each remain the same, and the same set of underrelaxation factors will be used for each increment of load.

VI I Isoparametric Elements

The Isoparametric element in this program Is a quadratic element v/lth three nodes on each side. The geometry Is Input and generated just as If a linear displacement element were being used. Ilote, however, that all element boundaries and material boundaries must fall on nodes with odd Indices.

The Internal handling of this element requires some special consideration in the input. The element type codes and material numbers must only be on the nodes which designate element corners. To achieve this, 11 and Jl In the TYPE section must be Input as 2^.

VIM Torsion

The torsion solution is part of the zero harmonic In the asymmetric loading case, because It is the only clement at present that has a theta degree of freedom. A RUN parameter of 9 must then be sped fled.

There are to different ways that torsion can be run: (1) with the full asymmetric calculation j»ivin<: all three degrees of freedom, and using a type k element: (2) with torsion only. In which case a type 5 element will be used. The type 5 element Is faster than the type i*. Accumulation can be made for both elemonts, or for any combination of 2, h or 5 elements, since they are all asymmetric. Note that the torsion loads act on a moment arm equal to the radial coordinate of the point where they are applied.

IX Stabl1 Itv

This option Is used to determine the stability of a flat, vertically stacked bearing. The only Input sections required are the General Input, the Run Input, and the Stability Input. The values In the General section will not be used, but due to program flow the section must be Included. Run option 20 must be specified.

X Service Life

To determine the service life of a bearing, this program must be used In conjunction with program S3359SL. When a run Is made where data needs to be saved for the service life calculations, output option 20 must be specified. The stresses and

TIMING

Timing on this program Is a problem because so many factors affect the execution speed.

In general the time required for a run is a function of I2 and J.

The asymmetric loading problem requires about tv/o times as long for each pass as a simple axisymmetric problem.

Each iteration on iterative runs must be counted as a full execution.

From our experience/ the best way to estimate the time Is by experience with the guidelines given above. However, the following equation will give a starting point:

Time (In minutes) ■ F lz J ♦ 1.2

where F ■ .0012 for an asymmetric run and .0006 for an axisymmetric run, I Is the l-dlmenslon of the grid, and J Is the J-dlmenslon of the r.rld. This equation Is for the IBM 370/155; the factor F and the constant 1.2 may change for other machines.

1. The Isotropie Poisson's ratio is restricted to 0 < v < .5. At least under some circumstances a zero Poisson's ratio will make the stiffness matrix singular.

2. If a node Is on the axis of revolution of an axlsymmetrically loaded body« the radial displacement of that node must be fixed at zero.

VARIAßLE PIMENSIQNS

To facilitate running of both lar^e and small problems, the working arrays in the program have been variably dimensioned. Two things should be noted here about the program. First, the program will take as much core storage as It is given; that is, on the step resource usage given at the end of the run, the amount of core used and requested will always be the same. Second, the actual amount of working storage used in each phase will be printed out as part of the output.

The table on the following pages gives the maximum core required for a run. There are many factors which affect the core required for any given run, so the first guess should be taken from the table and then adjusted after a complete run has been made. The excess core available for each part of the program is given with the output.

To find the region required for a run, a look in the table for the I and J size of the grid will give the region in K bytes. If an asymmetric loading case, or an isoparametric case is not being run, the region may be reduced by up to one-third.

For a stability calculation, only 190K will be needed for the run.

FREFRM INPUT

Input to the prosram is via subroutine FREFRM. This Is a record-oriented free-form Input routine. It allows data to be entered without regard to card columns and yet be Input as individual unique records.

This routine has the following characteristics:

1. Numbers are not restricted to any particular columns on the card.

2. The numbers may be separated with any of the followins:

a. A comma is a separator.

b. The sign of the number is a separator.

c. The single quotation mark (') v/hen defining an alpha string Is also a separator.

d. The end of a card (column 72) Is a separator; that is, if no other separator Is encountered before the end of a card, that end will terminate the number. Note that an end of card In an alpha string Is an error,

e. The L of an L-number Is a separator.

f. A record terminator (;) will terminate the number as well as the record. A record terminator In an alpha string Is an error. A string of dissimilar separators Is only one separator. For example, a comma followed by an end of card, followed by an L or quote, is still only one separator.

3. L-Numbers may be used to specify the relative location of the value In the record. An L-Number Is an Integer preceded by an L which sets the counter to a specific location In the record, the first location being 1. Thus the third location is given by L3. The L-Number must be senarated from the following value by a valid separator. The number must always follow the L immediately. The presence of anything other than a digit Immediately following the L will

cause an error.

k» A logical record must be terminated by a semicolon

5. Alphanumeric data can be entered anywhere in the string but must be set off with single quotation marks ('). The quotation mark is a separator. Two consecutive quotation marks will cause a quotation mark to be entered in the string. There are 8 characters in each location as defined by the L-Mumbers.

6. If two commas appear consecutively/ no value is input between them. The value previously put in that location will remain there.

7. If two signs appear consecutively/ a zero is assumed between them.

8. If a record begins with an alpha character/ it will be assumed to be a flag record or a title/ and no other data may be entered In It. These records may begin with 'L'/ which usually signifies an L-Mumber/ if and only if the second character in the string Is alphabetic.

FLAG AND TITLE RECORDS

Any record which begins with alphabetic data is considered to be a flag or title record. Flag records are used to flag the beginning of each group of records. If the first four columns of the record contain a flag sequence^ the record is considered to be a flag record. If not, it is considered to be a title record and its use is determined from its location in the input stream. The record terminator must not appear in the string. A title record may span several cards, but each flag or title record must end with a record terminator. A flag record cannot exceed a single card.

In the following pages, only four characters are given for each flag since this is all that is checked. Additional characters may be added to make a full statement if desired.

INPUT FOR PROGRAM

As many of the following groups as needed may be entered. Some of the groups are required; others are optional.

The Title records and General Data must be the first two groups Input. All other groups may be Input In any order, with the only restriction being that of logical sequence of events. Obviously you can not use an Item of data until It Is Input; therefore. Line Generators must follow the Node records that define their end points, etc. In general, any group may be Input more than once; however, th?s practice should be restricted to avoid overly complex Input sets.

Each case run through the program Is considered to be a separate case, and all Information must be entered for each case. This Is also true of the various parts of an asymmetric loading run. Except for the accumulation, each case Is considered to be completely separate.

Note that only columns 1 through 72 may be used for data.

Title

As many cards as desired may be entered horn, with the last card containing a record terminator. Each title card must start with an alphabetic character.

APPENDIX A

Service Life Program

This program ts designated as S3359SL. It is designed to accept a tape or tapes created by S3359/ when output option 20 has been specified, and accumulate a selected set of stresses and strains.

The energy is calculated for each element from the principal stresses and strains as the accumulation is done.

The accumulated energy, stresses and strains and the principal stresses and strains calculated from the accumulated stresses and strains are printed out at the end of the run. The locations of the highest energy and the highest value of the principal stresses are printed out also.

Input

When the S3359 runs were made, a pair of Integers giving the date and time for each set of data put on the tape was written out. To select the desired sets of data from the tape for accumulation, the date and time of each of the desired sets must be Input exactlv as they were written out and In the same order as they appear on the tape.

The input Is via FREFRM as follows:

Ti tie - A title record that will be printed on the top of each page of the output. This must be only one card.

Control Records

As many records as desired to select the data sets.

LI The data as printed by S3359.

L2 The time as printed by S3359.

L3 The factor by which the stresses and strains will be multiplied. The default value Is 1.0.

An end of file stops the reading and accumulating and causes the final output to be produced.

APPENDIX B

S33S9F Fourier Coefficient Generator

This program computes the Fourier series coefficients by use of Trapezoidal Integration Formula« then fits the function f(0) with a Fourier series curve fit. The output Includes a set of cards containing the Fourier series coefficients In a form compatible with the Input requirements of program S3359.

The function to be fit with a Fourier series curve fit must be either odd or even having period 2«. The Integration for the coefficients Is performed over the Interval [o,«] and then mult I pi led by two.

Preparation sd. Input The Input Is read In In free form. (The rules of free-form Input are given In the S3359 document In detail.) The first card Is a title card. The second card contains data specifying the symmetry of the function, the error tolerance which Is compared with the least-squares error approximation, the maximum harmonic which Is to be calculated, and a plot flag specifying what Is to be plotted. The next set of cards contains values of e and f{9) where 6 Is In degrees.

Title Record

May contain any desired alphanumeric Information

Control Record

I0EF IOEF-0 If f(e) is even, 1 If f(0) is odd

ISYM Specifies the symmetry of f(e) as shown In Tables B-l and B-2

E Real number error tolerance allowed for Fourier series curve fit

N Integer number specifying the maximum harmonic to be computed. Maximum of fifteen.

I PLOT IPLOT-0, no plot

IPLOT-1, plot all harmonics

IPLOT'2, plot final harmonic only

IPL0T"3, plot specified harmonics

IH(15) Integer number specifying harmonic numbers to be used In plotting. Maximum of fifteen. Required only for IPLOT-3.

Input Data Cards

Ö Real value of e In degrees

f(9) Real value of f{e)

The title card must be ended with a semicolon. All other data Is separated by commas and ended with a semicolon. In choosing N and IH, the user must keep In mind what type of symmetry (I0EF and ISYM) he Is working with. For example. If I0EF - 0, and ISYM ■ I, only even harmonics are calculated since the odd harmonics are zero. Hence, N and the values of IH should be even.

If the Fourier coefficients are to be computed for more than one function, the data for each function Is preceded by a title record.

Many functions of Interest contain some type of symmetry. In these cases certain terms In the Fourier series will be zero and therefore are not calculated. The function f. In this case. Is always either odd or even. The following rules of symmetry apply.

QutPUt

The entire input data is listed giving the FORTRAN name. The computed Fourier coefficients are written with a least-squares error for the curve fit up to that particular harmonic. A deck of cards containing the Fourier series coefficients is punched. The cards are punched in a form compatible with the input requirements of Program S3359.

If a plot Is specified, a plot of the Fourier series curve fit Is given on 12-Inch grid paper. The actual curve Is marked by X's, and the Fourier series curve fit Is drawn with a solid line.
