This research investigates the adhesive forces in digital light processing (DLP) and continuous digital light processing (CDLP), focusing on how the oxygen inhibition effect, resin container membrane, and model geometries affect these forces. This study tested four distinct resin vats, with particular attention given to oxygen-permeable vats, to evaluate their role in reducing adhesive forces. A permeable vat that reduced the separation force by 52% using the oxygen inhibition layer was assessed for continuous printing. The influence of model geometry on the adhesive force in DLP and CDLP was evaluated using a permeable vat. Moreover, an inverse relationship was identified between resin absorbance and both curing depth and printing speed. It was observed that as the model’s cross-sectional area increased, so did the adhesion force in continuous printing. These findings prove that continuous printing can achieve faster build times in CDLP than in DLP, with a maximum speed of 288 mm/h.","PeriodicalId":20558,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226005","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}

The energy method consists of the structural potential energy and an optimization problem. The potential energy is calculated by structural discretization. And the optimization problem, whose objective is the structural potential energy, is obtained by combining the principle of minimum potential energy with the forces balance constraints. The load distribution is the result of the optimization problem. A finite element model is established for validation. Compared with previous models, the proposed model has lower complexity and higher precision. To further verify the reliability and practicability of the proposed model, effects of the nut position, shaft diameter, and number of roller threads on the load distribution are analyzed based on the proposed model. The results show that the nut position has little influence on the load distribution. The shaft diameter and number of roller threads significantly impact the load distribution.","PeriodicalId":20558,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226006","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}

This robot is designed with a variable number of linkages, constituting the core of its system structure. Through this innovative approach, it achieves movement in diverse types of pipelines by altering its own structural configuration. Kinematic analysis is conducted using both the Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) method and screw theory, providing expressions for the forward kinematics in terms of the robot’s positional and attitudinal states, as well as geometric solutions for the inverse kinematics. Simulations conducted in MATLAB and ADAMS software demonstrate consistent postural changes of the robot, validating its design and capabilities. Prototype experiments in a 500 mm diameter pipeline further confirm the robot’s structural design rationality and its ability to navigate through tee and four-way junction pipes by altering its posture. The results indicate that this pipe robot effectively navigates through straight, vertical tee, and horizontal four-way junction pipes, offering a viable solution for efficiently maneuvering through complex pipeline junctions.","PeriodicalId":20558,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226034","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}

Conventional methods for designing gear parameters involve several time-consuming and complex steps, which may not guarantee optimal performance. Therefore, we propose a new method for designing gear parameters that aims to improve efficiency and accuracy. First, the tooth surface equations of spur and helical involute gears suitable for symmetric and asymmetric teeth are deduced based on the gear-forming machining principle. Second, the performance evaluation models for load capacity, dynamic performance, efficiency, and power density of the gears are established based on the precise gear surface. The design objectives are standardized and evaluated comprehensively using a linear weighting method. Finally, a forward performance-driven design method of gear parameters is established. The proposed method is applied to a helical gear pair design case, and the results show that 90.7% of the individuals in the Pareto optimal front are asymmetric gears, with 9.3% being symmetric gears. This suggests that asymmetric gears have more opportunities to be optimal than symmetric gears. The highest-ranked gear designed using the proposed method is superior to the gear designed using conventional methods.","PeriodicalId":20558,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142201801","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}

While previous research has extensively explored fault-tolerant control for UAVs, particularly addressing faulty actuators and sensors, there remains a significant gap in addressing control methods for quadrotors experiencing structural faults. We focus specifically on scenarios where a fault in one of the quadrotor’s rotors diverts thrust from the vertical axis, complicating traditional control methods. Our proposed method involves two key steps: firstly, identifying the fault vector using a terminal sliding mode observer, and secondly, calculating appropriate control inputs using a sliding mode method based on the estimated fault vector. Simulation results demonstrate the robustness of this approach, showing accurate control performance even in the presence of multiple faults and disturbances. The system’s reliability hinges on the convergence of the disturbance observer’s estimation error to zero within a finite time frame. In conclusion, the developed controller offers a dependable solution for safely controlling a faulty quadrotor amidst high nonlinearity and uncertainty.","PeriodicalId":20558,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142201786","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}

The purpose of the current study is therefore to investigate the kinematics of TW cyclists toward head-ground contact after vehicle collisions via multi-body modeling of vehicle-to-TW crashes under different scenarios. The results indicate that: a lower relative height of pelvis to vehicle bonnet leading edge and vehicle impact speed are more likely to induce a forward landing kinematics to TW cyclists, while higher values of these parameters are generally associated with the backward rolling or soaring movement; TW cyclists are more likely to drop to the side of the vehicle when the TW is moving or with a large offset distance from the center line of the struck vehicle; the head-first ground contact configuration is generally associated with shorter bicyclists in sedan impacts, bicyclists in MPV crashes and all TW cyclists in the crashes with a high vehicle impact speed (>30 km/h); the head-ground contact velocity of TW cyclists is significantly higher in the rear-end dropping cases, and shows relatively high correlation to vehicle impact speed but low correlation to TW moving speed; the head-ground contact velocity of TW cyclists is strongly affected by the body motion before head-ground impact, and head-first contacts could have an either low or high ground contact velocity. The findings may provide preliminary reference for future strategies of TW cyclist ground injury prevention.","PeriodicalId":20558,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C: Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226035","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}
