Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue seeks to explore state-of-the-art methodologies in the modeling and design of vibration and wave systems. Such methodologies include analytical, numerical, data-driven, and physics-informed AI approaches. Vibration and wave engineering are critical in various fields, including mechanics, acoustics, materials science, and others. This Special Issue aims to showcase advancements that enhance our understanding of these systems. These advancements will address challenges such as multi-physics and/or multi-scale interactions, nonlinear problems, and complex geometries.

We encourage the submission of contributions that concentrate on innovative modeling techniques for vibration and wave analysis and design optimization strategies intended to enhance output performance. The interdisciplinary nature of this Special Issue invites submissions that connect theoretical developments with practical applications, thereby fostering a deeper integration of advanced modeling with real-world engineering solutions.

By fostering collaboration between researchers from diverse backgrounds, this Special Issue aims to accelerate the development of next-generation technologies for the improved design of vibration and wave systems.

This paper proposes a vibration reduction method for fractional slot concentrated winding (FSCW) permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) by applying a four-layer winding configuration. The radial electromagnetic force (REF), particularly its low space-harmonics, causes significant vibration in PMSMs. These low-order REF components are influenced by sub-harmonics in the airgap magnetic flux density (MFD), which occur at frequencies lower than the fundamental component generated by the armature magnetomotive force (MMF) in FSCW PMSMs. To mitigate these sub-harmonics in the MFD, the four-layer winding is applied to the FSCW PMSM. As a result, the overall vibration of the motor is reduced. To verify the effectiveness of the four-layer winding, both electrical and mechanical characteristics are compared among motors with conventional one-, two-, and, proposed, four-layer windings. Finally, the three motors are fabricated and tested, and their vibration levels are experimentally evaluated. Full article

This study proposes a strategy for decomposing the computational domain to solve differential equations using physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and progressively saving the trained model in each subdomain. The proposed progressive domain decomposition (PDD) method segments the domain based on the dynamics of residual loss, thereby indicating the complexity of different sections within the entire domain. By analyzing residual loss pointwise and aggregating it over specific intervals, we identify critical regions requiring focused attention. This strategic segmentation allows for the application of tailored neural networks in identified subdomains, each characterized by varying levels of complexity. Additionally, the proposed method trains and saves the model progressively based on performance metrics, thereby conserving computational resources in sections where satisfactory results are achieved during the training process. The effectiveness of PDD is demonstrated through its application to complex PDEs, where it significantly enhances accuracy and conserves computational power by strategically simplifying the computational tasks into manageable segments.
