Zusammenfassung:To investigate the vibration behavior of ship-borne tethered UAVs under taut–slack conditions, the Hamilton principle is used to establish the three-dimensional dynamic equations of the ship-borne tethered UAVs while taking into account geometric nonlinearity and simplifying them into the corresponding stress wave equations. By employing the characteristic line technique to solve the stress wave equation of ship-borne tethered UAVs, it is possible to numerically determine the effects of various factors on the vibration behavior of these drones. Dimensional analysis is then used to build the experimental model, ensuring that the numerical outcomes are accurate. The findings show that the impact of equilibrium curvature connects longitudinal and transverse waves and that the geometric dispersion of stress wave propagation in the tethered cable is caused by equilibrium curvature. The standing wave takes the lead and causes subharmonic and frequency doubling components in the top tension response when the end excitation frequency is near the tethered UAVs’ natural frequency. Additionally, the cable’s center as well as its end will display the highest dynamic tension value.
