Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of aviation structure dynamics testing, and in particular to a resonance test composite support system. Background Art

[0002] Vibration control technology is one of the core topics in aerospace engineering. Its development history can be traced back to the dynamic response research of aircraft structures in the early 20th century. Vibration is widely present in engineering, but in many cases, vibration is undesirable and destructive to the safety and accuracy of mechanical equipment such as on-orbit spacecraft, high-precision instruments and vehicles. As aircraft develop towards high speed, lightweight and high maneuverability, the coupling problem of complex aeroelastic effects and structural dynamics has become increasingly prominent. Full-aircraft ground resonance testing has become a key means to verify the structural integrity and safety of aircraft. Early vibration suppression technologies mainly relied on linear vibration isolation elements (such as metal springs and hydraulic dampers), but their dynamic characteristics were limited by the natural frequency bandwidth, making it difficult to effectively isolate low-frequency vibration interference.

[0003] As a typical nonlinear vibration isolation element, air springs have become a research hotspot in the field of vibration control due to their advantages, including adjustable stiffness, strong load-bearing capacity, and controllable damping characteristics. Their operating principle is based on the volume-pressure characteristics of a closed air cavity. By adjusting the air pressure, nonlinear stiffness can be varied, thereby adapting to the dynamic response requirements under different load conditions. Research has shown that air springs have excellent vibration isolation performance within a certain frequency range.

[0004] Traditional support systems for full-aircraft ground resonance tests mostly use rigid supports or simple vibration isolation devices, which have the following technical bottlenecks: First, modal coupling interference, the rigid body mode of the support system overlaps with the aircraft's elastic mode frequency domain, resulting in increased modal parameter identification errors; second, dynamic response is limited, conventional support structures cannot take into account both ultra-low frequency vibration isolation and large load bearing requirements, and lack adaptability to test conditions; third, stiffness adjustment is rigid, and the existing system relies on mechanical adjustment to achieve stiffness changes, with slow response speed and low accuracy, which cannot meet the testing needs of multi-configuration aircraft.
