One of the tasks that has been little studied so far is the assembly of cylindrical non-rigid parts. Mathematical models of the coupling stages during robotic assembly have been developed, which are necessary for the identification of the signals of the force-torque sensor. The obtained analytical solutions make it possible to determine the conditions for the occurrence of jamming of the non-rigid shaft during two-point contact during the coupling of the shaft with a rigid sleeve. The obtained values of deflections and angles of rotation allow us to correct the movement of the output link of the robot during the assembly operation. A mathematical model is presented for solving the problem of determining the current contact state during assembly using the support vector machine method when obtaining information about the position coordinates by the control system of an industrial robot and forces from a force-torque sensor.

Regular waves are generated by a wave maker driven at three different frequencies.

Particular attention is given to the change in flow characteristics downstream of the cylinder as a result of interaction of the surface wave and bottom mounted cylinder (radius, <i>R</i> = 2.5, 3.75, and 5.5 cm). The resulting flow field is studied in detail using quadrant and velocity spectra analysis. The results show that contributions to the total shear stress from ejection and sweep are prominent for the entire region. Furthermore, the probability density function is determined to describe the instantaneous turbulent velocity signal, which demonstrates a bimodal nature for bottom-normal velocity fluctuations and a sharp distribution for stream-wise velocity fluctuations. Power spectral density shows that the power spectral peak of surface wave is effectively reduced for both stream-wise and vertical velocities.

Significant improvements in classification accuracy are achieved by extracting features and employing spectrogram analysis. Specifically, using dual spectral features, instantaneous frequency and spectral entropy, increases the BiLSTM’s average accuracy from 86 to 98.5%, based on a comparative analysis of models trained with raw vibration signals and those trained with extracted spectral features.

This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of classical micro-scale boundary conditions for the pore pressure field, namely Taylor boundary condition (TBC-p), linear boundary condition (LBC-p), periodic boundary condition (PBC-p) and uniform boundary flux (UBF-p), in terms of their accuracy in representing primary (pore pressure) and dual (relative fluid velocity) fields in finite-strain multiscale poromechanical problems. A specific benchmark problem was formulated to investigate the performance of these approaches in scenarios where the rate of the volumetric Jacobian is nonzero, a condition of significant physical interest, especially in contexts such as swelling. Numerical results show that the UBF-p and PBC-p approaches effectively capture the behavior of direct numerical simulation (DNS) during the early time steps. However, deviations from the expected behavior occur when the representative volume element (RVE) undergoes significant volume changes. It is concluded that the observed limitations are due to the first-order nature of the multiscale model. This study highlights the need for more sophisticated computational homogenization poromechanical models that can accurately capture the complex interplay between fluid flow and deformation at different length scales. Second-order computational homogenization models can be alternatives to overcome the limitations of first-order multiscale poromechanical models by enriching the information coming from the macro-scale and relaxing the constraints on the fluid flow at the RVE boundaries.</p>","PeriodicalId":17252,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Brazilian Society of Mechanical Sciences and Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141866831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, the viscous resistance, air resistance, and swing angle suppression force encountered during transportation have uncertainties and cannot be accurately fed back to the controller’s input, resulting in poor swing angle suppression capability. In order to suppress the undesired swinging of the hook and load, this paper proposes an adaptive coupling anti-swing control strategy with enhanced swing angle suppression under initial input constraints. Specifically, more system parameters are included in the design of the coupling signal, and a sine term is introduced to adjust the oscillation of the hook and load swing angle. At the same time, a hyperbolic tangent term is introduced to suppress the driving force of the overhead crane to prevent excessive driving force from affecting the control performance. Furthermore, for the problem of uncertain parameters, an adaptive law is used to estimate the uncertain parameters online, ultimately designing an adaptive coupling anti-swing controller with enhanced swing angle suppression under initial input constraints. The asymptotic stability of the equilibrium point of the closed-loop system is proven using the Lyapunov method and LaSalle’s invariance principle.
