Although there is agreement on the excitation mechanism of brake squeal, namely self-excitation due to frictional forces between the disk and the pad, in the subject of squeal it is very complex to discover all relevant effects and to take them into account. Several of these problems are related to nonlinearities, for example, in the contact between pad and disk or drum or in the behavior of the brake pad material. One of these nonlinear effects, which has been almost completely neglected so far, is that the brake can engage, mainly due to the bushing and joint elements within the brake, different equilibrium positions. This in fact has serious influence on the noise behavior as shown in experimental studies. For example, it is observed in experiments that, despite identical operating parameters, squeal sometimes occurs and sometimes not. In initial experimental studies, this could be related to the engaged equilibrium position. Following these experimental studies, the present paper introduces a minimal model by extending the well-known minimal model by Hoffmann et al. by corresponding elements and nonlinearities allowing the system to engage different equilibrium positions. As will be presented, the stability behavior strongly depends on the engaged equilibrium position. Therefore, the minimal model represents the key experimentally observed issues. Additionally, a limit cycle behavior can also be observed.</p>","PeriodicalId":53634,"journal":{"name":"GAMM Mitteilungen","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/gamm.202300001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50116537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A feedforward controller based on an inverse model of the system is an efficient way to improve the performance. However, unstable internal dynamics arise for many common flexible robots and stable inversion must be applied. In this contribution, an approximation of the original stable inversion approach is proposed. The approximation simplifies the problem setup, since the internal dynamics do not need to be derived explicitly for the definition of the boundary conditions. From a practical point of view, this makes the method applicable to more complex systems with many unactuated degrees of freedom.

Typically, the frequencies are in the range of 1 to 16 kHz. Although the noise has virtually no effect on braking performance, strong attempts are made to identify and eliminate the noise as it can be very unpleasant and annoying. In the field of numerical simulation, the brake is typically modeled using the Finite Element method, and this results in a high-dimensional equation of motion. For the analysis of brake squeal, gyroscopic and circulatory effects, as well as damping and friction, must be considered correctly. For the subsequent analysis, the high-dimensional damped nonlinear equation system is linearized. This results in terms that are non-symmetric and dependent on the rotational frequency of the brake rotor. Many parameter points to be evaluated implies many evaluations to determine the relevant parameters of the unstable system. In order to increase the efficiency of the process, the system is typically reduced with a truncated modal transformation. However, with this method the damping and the velocity-dependent terms, which have a significant influence on the system, are neglected for the calculation of the eigenmodes, and this can lead to inaccurate reduced models. In this paper, we present results of other methods of model order reduction applied on an industrial high-dimensional brake model. Using moment matching methods combined with parametric model order reduction, both the damping and the various parameter-dependent terms of the brake model can be taken into account in the reduction step. Thus, better results in the frequency domain can be obtained. On the one hand, as usual in brake analysis, the complex eigenvalues are evaluated, but on the other hand also the transfer behavior in terms of the frequency response.

Since they reduce the component's fatigue life, a reliable identification and description of pores is vital to ensure the component's performance. X-ray computed tomography (CT) is an established and non-destructive testing method to investigate internal defects. The CT scan process can induce noise and artefacts in the resulting images which afterwards have to be reduced through image processing. To reconstruct the internal defects of a component, the images need to be segmented in defect region and bulk material by applying a threshold. The application of the threshold as well as the previous image processing alter the geometry and size of the identified defects. This contribution aims to quantify the influence of selected commercial image processing and segmentation methods on identified pores in several additively manufactured components made of AlSi10Mg and Ti6Al4V as well as in an artificial CT scan.

The focus is on numerical solutions of the governing Navier–Stokes equations, in which all temporal and spatial scales are resolved and which are known as direct numerical simulations (DNS) [8]. For a brief introduction to DNS, the reader is referred to the preface of the preceding issue [1], and references therein. The two issues contain a broad spectrum of topics which includes the study of sound generation mechanisms in combustion [4], the extraction of dominant spatiotemporal patterns and coherent structures in several canonical flows [12,14], the active control of turbulence in compressible fluid flows [9], the modeling of jets impinging on rough surfaces [10], the high-order, low-dissipation modeling of compressible multi-phase flows [2] and the accurate simulation of particleand bubble-laden fluid flows [3]. In what follows, we briefly summarize the three contributions to the second issue. Flows driven by pressure gradients and by temperature-induced buoyancy forces are referred to as mixed convection flows and are common in nature and in engineering, for example, in heat exchangers, cooling systems, and air-conditioned rooms and spaces, such as an airplane cabin. Wagner and Wetzel [12] discuss results of recent DNS of a pressure-driven flow in a differentially heated, vertical channel [13]. They demonstrate that differential heating induces a strong asymmetry in the turbulent flow, when compared to an isothermal fluid. Specifically near the cooled wall, turbulence is enhanced, whereas it is damped in the heated wall. This effect, which is quantified with a thorough analysis of the coherent structures in the flow, becomes more pronounced as the thermal driving is increased. Compressible, multiphase flows exhibit very complex dynamics acting in a wide range of scales, ranging from molecular (shock waves, fluid–fluid interfaces) up to the largest coherent structures in the flow, dictated by the geometry and the driving. On the one hand, the experimental measurement of such flows is very difficult and limited to gross features. On the other hand, their simulation is particularly challenging, as numerical diffusion (dissipation) must be introduced to stabilize the numerical solutions against unphysical oscillations. As a consequence, compressible multiphase flows remain poorly understood. Fleischmann et al. [2] present an overview of recent improvements in high-order, low-dissipation schemes for compressible multi-phase flows. Level sets are employed to model discontinuous phase-interface interactions. The very good accuracy of the implementation in the code ALPACA [5,6] is demonstrated for several paradigmatic examples of considerable difficulty.
