To enable this capability, our method firstly generates multiple acoustic focal points by using an acoustic hologram-based lens and then constructs a thermal field with multiple elevated-temperature areas based on the acousto-thermal effect. To design the acoustic lens, multiple points are distributed on a constraint plane, which is used as the input for determining the desired phase map based on an iterative phase propagation approach. To characterize the performance of our hologram for generating an acoustic field with concentrated energy at multiple points, on one hand, numerical simulations were performed. On the other hand, experiments were performed by using a 3D printed hologram to generate multiple acoustic focal points and further enable the acousto-thermal effect at multiple target locations of a phantom slice. The thermal image recorded by an infrared camera shows multiple elevated-temperature areas. Moreover, the locations of these elevated-temperature areas agree with the locations of acoustic focal points. We expect this study can contribute to the noncontact control of thermal fields for biomedical applications.","PeriodicalId":302047,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5: Dynamics, Vibration, and Control","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116039313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many of the existing methods for studying stepped beams manifest serious numerical difficulties as the number of segments or the frequency of excitation increase. In this paper, we focus on the Transfer Matrix Method (TMM), which provides a simple and elegant formulation for multi-step beams. The main idea in the TMM is to model each step in the beam as a uniform element whose vibration configurations are spanned by the segment’s local eigenfunctions. Utilizing these local expressions, the boundary conditions at the ends of the multi-step beam as well as the continuity and compatibility conditions across each step are used to obtain the nonlinear eigenvalue problem. Also, and perhaps more importantly, we provide a reformulation for multi-step Euler-Bernoulli beams that avoids much of the numerical singularity problems that have plagued most of the earlier efforts. When this reformulation is extended to multi-segment Timoshenko beams, the numerical difficulties appear to be mitigated, but not solved.","PeriodicalId":302047,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5: Dynamics, Vibration, and Control","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125487656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, new technology in high-precision manufacturing, such as vibration-assisted machining, has shown the meaningfulness of using laser interferometers implemented in motion control systems for vibration analysis, system identification, and feedback control. To this end, this study investigates the use of laser interferometry for vibration analysis through a piezoelectrically actuated cantilever beam. The complete dynamics of the cantilevered beam with a piezoelectric actuator and a laser interferometer is modeled through the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Through the method of separation of variables, the original continuous system is transformed into a discrete system represented in a state-space form. The response of the beam is analytically predicted, then compared with the numerical result from a multibody model constructed in Simscape. The frequency response at the retroreflector is obtained through the Laplace transformation of the state-space form. It is found that the first modal frequencies from analytical prediction precisely agree with their experimental counterpart.","PeriodicalId":302047,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5: Dynamics, Vibration, and Control","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127817401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Magnetic bearings are preferred over a rolling element or journal bearings. The high-speed rotor is supported on active magnetic bearings. Though magnetic bearings with multi-axis support are possible, we look at building the support using desired passive compliance along five DOFs and one contactless support using a magnetic field with high stiffness at the set gap. A single DOF active magnetic bearing system is designed to precisely position a shaft along the longitudinal direction. The shaft is supported on a pair of compliant ortho-planar mechanisms at the two ends. The compliant structure is designed to provide bearing support along the radial directions. The position of the shaft along the longitudinal direction is actively controlled using the magnetic bearing system. A two-unit system based on magnetic attraction, one at either end, is designed. A candidate compliant ortho-planar mechanism is designed to support the shaft and fabricated using rapid prototyping. Stresses and bearing stiffness along different axes are calculated and analyzed using FEM. The 3D printed part was used for visualization and tested for compliance in the active magnetic bearing direction. The active magnetic bearing system is modeled. The controller will be optimized for disturbance rejection and minimize excursion around a desired axial location. The developed setup can be used to study and develop multi-axis AMB for high-speed rotating applications.","PeriodicalId":302047,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5: Dynamics, Vibration, and Control","volume":"160 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133683735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The system is also assumed to have very light damping between the two links. Euler-Lagrange formulation is used to develop the equations of motion of the double-link inverted pendulum which results in a non-autonomous dynamic system. The method of multiple timescales is implemented to convert it to an autonomous system which allows for determination of the equilibrium points. Bifurcation analysis of the damped and undamped system with respect to frequency and amplitude of the input excitation is performed using a continuation analysis software.

Moreover, they can be expanded to improve their mobility on soft soil. However, only a single wheel foot was considered in previous researches on wheel-terrain interaction, which may be inaccurate. Hence, the cycloid motion equations for an unfolded variable-diameter wheel were introduced to obtain the shear displacement of any point on a wheel foot. Then, determining wheel-soil interaction regions was transformed into geometric relationship analysis. Therefore, the simplified model with a single wheel foot was established. Consequently, the traction efficiency achieved the peak when the range of wheel slip rates was 0.15∼0.35. The results shown that increased wheel diameter improved wheel mobility. For a greater sinkage, with the superposition of simplified model, the detailed model based on multiple wheel feet was built. This model got closer to real interaction status. The finite element analysis (FEA) results for the rolling wheel on soft soil were consistent with the theoretical hypotheses. Overall, the simplified model is very efficient, however, the detailed model is more accurate, which provides theoretical references for the control of optimizing wheel mobility. Additionally, this new analysis method developed here can also be applied to other expandable wheels.","PeriodicalId":302047,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5: Dynamics, Vibration, and Control","volume":"125 24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123039909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because of their lift-type, the power conversion efficiency is relatively high compared with drag-type vertical axis wind turbines like Savonius wind turbines. Although the merits of Darrieus wind turbines are remarkable, they also have their demerits.

Time domain solution methods are expensive compared to frequency domain method for the determination of steady state response of nonlinear systems. Therefore, Harmonic Balance Method (HBM) is employed to constitute the set of algebraic equations to be solved numerically. Alternating Frequency Time (AFT) Method is utilized to find the Fourier coefficients of the friction force in an iterative way. In addition, analytical Jacobian formulation is implemented to the friction model to enhance the solution performance. Although various friction dampers have been designed, mathematically modeled, and discussed before, fretting wear which is the inevitable outcome of the dry friction is underemphasized up until today.

Controlling these vehicles requires coordination of the steering angles and wheel speeds such that the basic rigid body kinematic constraint on the instantaneous center of rotation (ICR) is satisfied. This makes them difficult to control except for simple cases where either the center of curvature for all turns is constrained to be along the perpendicular bisector to the longitudinal centerline of the vehicle or considerable wheel slippage is allowed to happen. Several efforts have been reported to address this problem, most of which tend to simplify the problem by extending the well-known bicycle model to these vehicles. This paper uses the Gibbs-Appel formulation to develop the equations of motion of a 4WD/4WS vehicle in the quasi-coordinate space while enforcing both the ICR and no slip constraints. Unlike the Lagrange-Euler and the Newton-Euler formulations that use Lagrange multipliers to handle constraints, which increases the dimension of the system, the Gibbs-Appell formulation results in a model of a relatively lower dimension. This model is not only easy to use in control design but also captures the dynamics of the vehicle by constraining the wheels to remain on the path. Simulation results using a simple feedback linearization controller showed the vehicle tracking the path more accurately without wheel slip where the wheels remained on the path all times.","PeriodicalId":302047,"journal":{"name":"Volume 5: Dynamics, Vibration, and Control","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125914305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
