Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Applied Mathematics, Mechanics, and Engineering cover many research domains, and this issue represents a fountain flowing with innovative development. This Special Issue aims to create a research core of high-quality refereed articles discussing various aspects of applied mathematics in mechanics, and mechanical engineering modeling phenomena and their peculiarities. Thus, the proposed topics will highlight research articles dedicated to the mathematical modeling of technical problems arising in domains such as engineering, applied mechanics, medicine, robotics, science, technology, etc.

This Special Issue will be represented by high-quality articles related to the following interest topics:

  • Mechanical systems modeling; simulations methodology, and algorithms.
  • Dynamic analysis of mechanical systems.
  • Kinematics of mobile mechanical systems and their application.
  • Vibrations and impact phenomena modeling.
  • Mathematical models applied in mechanical engineering.

To investigate the oscillation modes of iced transmission lines, this study introduces a forcing term into the galloping equation and applies two discretization approaches: Discrete Method I (DMI), which directly transforms the partial differential equation into an ordinary differential form, and Discrete Method II (DMII), which first averages dynamic tension along the span. The finite element method is employed to validate the analytical solutions. Using a multiscale approach, amplitude-frequency responses under primary, harmonic, and internal resonance are derived. Results show that DMII yields larger galloping amplitudes and trajectories than DMI, with lower resonant frequencies and weaker geometric nonlinearities. In harmonic resonance, superharmonic and subharmonic modes (notably 1/2) are more easily excited. Under 2:1:2 internal resonance, amplitude differences in the vertical (z) direction are more sensitive to the discretization method, whereas the 1:1:1 case shows minimal variation across directions. These findings suggest that the choice of discretization significantly influences galloping behavior, with DMII offering a more conservative prediction. Full article
