This paper presents the effects of design and operating parameters to meet the static and dynamic performances of the electro-mechanical valve(EMV) actuator which can provide more flexible controllability of valve events compared to conventional variable valve actuation devices. The model of the EMV system was also set up and applied to identify the dynamic behavior of the system. And the effects of external disturbances were also investigated such as cylinder pressure, armature neutral position and current supplying time effects and so on. Experiments were carried out to verify the model using the prototype actuator on test bench, it was found that there is a relatively good agreement between experimental data and modeling results. Also, the actuators meet the general engine speed range (over 6000rpm) and the variable valve event control for various VVT effects.

In this study, and analytical method for ride sensitivity analysis of a train with non-linear suspension elements are proposed. Non-linear characteristics of springs and dampers for primary and secondary suspensions of a train are parameterized using polynomial interpolation. Vertical dynamic model of a three-body train running on straight rail with the predetermined roughness expressed in terms of spectral density function is set up and its equations of motion for ride analysis are derived. Using the direct differentiation method, sensitivity equations of the vertical dynamic model with respect to design parameters associated with non-linearity of suspensions are obtained. Based on the sensitivity analysis, improvement of ride is achieved by varying appropriate suspension parameters.

The primary purpose of this study is to observe the dynamic behavior within a vehicle on chassis dynamometer throughout cleat impact testing with two different constraining setups (Tie-down strap and one point fixation). Throughout this empirical experiment, no outstanding dynamic behavior characteristics are observed between two setups and thus, the performance of the one point fixation device is validated. Neither the interior noise nor acceleration at driver seat rail and knuckle is heavily influenced by two different constraining methods. However, one point fixation is far more advantageous considering its shorter set up time and its capability of measuring traction force with its built in force sensor.

Fundamental features of the arc stability in DC arc furnace of 720V/100kA/72MW have been investigated. Cassie-Mayr arc model has been employed and applied for the target dc arc furnace. In order to characterize the parameters of Cassie-Mayr arc model and the behavior of unstable arc dynamics, the advanced arc simulations of magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) has been performed. The MHD based arc simulation has been validated in the subcomponent level, for the free burning arc set up in the laboratory. From the results of MHD simulation, dc arc dynamic resistance is proposed to be an effective arc stability function reflecting the instability of dynamic arc behavior. The experimental result confirms the usefulness of proposed dynamic arc resistance as arc stability function. The proposed arc stability function can be regarded as an effective criterion for the overall power conversion system to maintain highly stable arcing operation leading to better productivity and reliability.

The main purpose of this paper is to present the dynamic test method developed for measuring the elastic modulus of sound insulating coat. The test setup was devised based on the theoretical natural frequency of a simply-supported beam subject to free transverse vibration. A stainless steel beam was tested and the result showed a good compliance with the standard value listed in literatures. The result indicates that the test set up can serve as a quick, economical and suitable scheme to test non self-supporting materials.

This paper aims to numerically estimate the dynamic ice load on a conical structure. The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is employed to model the level ice as the assembly of numerous spherical particles. To mimic the realistic fracture mechanism of ice, the parallel bonding method is introduced. Cases with four different ice drifting velocities are considered in time domain. For validation, the statistics of time-varying ice forces and their frequencies obtained by numerical simulations are extensively compared against the physical model-test results. Ice properties are directly adopted from the targeted experimental test set up. The additional parameters for DEM simulations are systematically determined by a numerical three-point bending test. The findings reveal that the numerical simulation estimates the dynamic ice force in a reasonably acceptable range and its results agree well with experimental data.

The analysis of an aircraft flight dynamics is recently very convenient because of the introduction of state-space method and a well-developed package software. The representation of a dynamic system is described as a simple form of matrix calculation and the unique form of model is available for the linear or nonlinear, time variant or time invariant, mono variable or multi variable system with state-space method. And this analysis can be simplified with the specific functions of a package software and it is very simplified to execute the simulation of the dynamic characteristics for an aircraft model with an interactive graphical treatment. The purpose of this study is to develope an educational flight simulator for the students who need to analyze the dynamic characteristics of an aircraft that is primarily to execute the simulation for the analysis of the transient response and frequency response of an aircraft stability. Furthermore the dynamic characteristics of an aircraft motion is set up as dynamical animation tool for the control response on 3-axis motions of an aircraft.

Triaxial tests are essential to estimate the shear strength properties of the soil or rock. Normally triaxial tests are carried out on samples of 38 mm diameter and 76 mm height. Granular materials, predominantly used in base/sub-base construction of pavements or in railways have size range of 60-75 mm. Determination of shear strength parameters of those materials can be made possible only through triaxial tests on large diameter samples. This paper describes a large diameter cyclic triaxial testing facility set up in the Geotechnical Engineering lab of Indian Institute of Science. This setup consists of 100 kN capacity dynamic loading frame, which facilitates testing of samples of up to 300 mm diameter and 600 mm height. The loading ram can be actuated up to a maximum frequency of 10 Hz, with maximum amplitude of 100 mm. The setup is capable of carrying out static as well as dynamic triaxial tests under isotropic, anisotropic conditions with a maximum confining pressure of 1 MPa. Working with this setup is a difficult task because of the size of the sample. In this paper, a detailed discussion on the various problems encountered during the initial testing using the equipment, the ideas and solutions adopted to solve them are presented. Pilot experiments on granular sub-base material of 53 mm down size are also presented.

This paper considers the single-product production and transportation problem with discrete time, dynamic demand and finite time horizon, an extension of classical dynamic lot-sizing model. In the model, multiple freight container types are allowed as the transportation mode and each order (product) placed in a period is shipped immediately by containers in the period. Moreover, each container has type-dependent carrying capacity restriction and at most one container type is allowed in each shipping period. The unit freight cost for each container type depends on the size of its carrying capacity. The total freight cost is proportional to the number of each container type employed. Such a freight cost is considered as another set-up cost. Also, it is assumed in the model that production and inventory cost functions are dynamically concave and backlogging is not allowed. The objective of this study is to determine the optimal production policy and the optimal transportation policy simultaneously that minimizes the total system cost (including production cost, inventory holding cost, and freight cost) to satisfy dynamic demands over a finite time horizon. In the analysis, the optimal solution properties are characterized, based on which a dynamic programming algorithm is derived. The solution algorithm is then illustrated with a numerical example.
