  • Substructuring methods are usually used in finite element structural analyses. In this study a multi-level substructuring algorithm is developed and proposed as a possible candidate for incompressible fluid solves. Finite element formulation for incompressible flow has been stabilized by a modified residual procedure proposed by Ilinca et.al.[5]. The present algorithm consists of four stages such as a gathering stage, a condensing stage, a solving stage and a scattering stage. At each level, a predetermined number of elements are gathered and condensed to form an element of higher level. At highest level, each subdomain consists of only one super-element. Thus, the inversion process of a stiffness matrix associated with internal degrees of freedom of each subdomain has been replaced by a sequential static condensation. The global algebraic system arising feom the assembly of each subdomains is solved using Conjugate Gradient Squared(CGS) method. In this case, pre-conditioning techniques usually accompanied by iterative solvers are not needed.

  • The tensegrity structure by prestressed cable, which may have large freedom in scale and form and therefore are received much attention from the view points of their light weight and aesthetics, is a very flexible and geometrically unstable structure because the cable material has little initial rigidity. For the stable self-equilibrated state of the usually very deformable structure, the method to find the optimal initial stress by the shape analysis is proposed in this paper. The proposed procedure is to derive the nonlinear finite element formula of cable and truss members considering geometric nonlinearity and used to modified load incremental method adding to Newton-Raphson method with the proposed condition for optimal initial stress. The result of the shape analysis for the tensegrity structure with the radius of 30m is shown the almost approximated shape to architectural shape and the changed procedure of initial stress

  • In this paper, we introduce a modified six-degrees-of-freedom parallel-link manipulator, which will be applied to the human vibration experiments. We analyze the inverse kinematics and workspace of this manipulator and comprehend the characteristics of kinematics analyzed. Additionally, solutions of forward kinematics are obtained through the iterative Newton-Raphson method known as one of the most used numerical analysis. Finally, dynamic equation of the manipulator is derived in closed form through the Newton-Euler approach, which will be used for the development of control software.

  • The vast mechanical systems could be classified as closed loop system, open loop system and open & closed (switching) system. In the closed loop system, the kinematics and dynamics of 3-D mechanisms will be reviewed and closed form solutions using the direction cosine matrix method and reflection transformation method will be introduced. In the open loop system, kinematic & dynamic analysis methods regarding the redundant system which has more degrees of freedom in joint space than those of task space are reviewed and discussed. Finally, switching system which changes its phase between closed and open loop motion is investigated with the principle of dynamical balance. Among switching systems, the human gait in biomechanics and humanoid in robotics are presented.

  • The effects of the nonlinear (quadratic) term in wind pressure have been analyzed in many papers with reference to linear structural models. The present paper addresses the problem of the response of nonlinear structures to stochastic nonlinear wind pressure. Adopting a single-degree-of-freedom structural model with polynomial nonlinearity, the solution is obtained by means of the moment equation approach in the context of It$\hat{o}$'s stochastic differential calculus. To do so, wind turbulence is idealized as the output of a linear filter excited by a Gaussian white noise. Response statistical moments are computed for both the equivalent linear system and the actual nonlinear one. In the second case, since the moment equations form an infinite hierarchy, a suitable iterative procedure is used to close it. The numerical analyses regard a Duffing oscillator, and the results compare well with Monte Carlo simulation.

  • In this paper, the design method and experimental validation for the two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) electromagnetic energy harvester are presented. The harvester consists of the rigid body suspended by four tension springs and electromagnetic transducers. Once the two resonant frequencies and the mass properties are specified, both the constant and the positions for the springs can be determined in the closed form. The designed harvester can locate two resonant peaks close to each other and forms the extended frequency bandwidth for power harvesting. Halbach magnet array is also introduced to enhance the output power. In the experiment, two resonant frequencies are measured at 34.9 and 37.6 Hz and the frequency bandwidth improves to 5 Hz at the voltage level of 207.9 mV. The normalized peak power of 4.587 mW/G2 is obtained at the optimal load resistor of 367 Ω.

  • We consider a single-input-single-output nonlinear system which is represented in a normal form. The model contains the uncertainty. A high-gain observer is used to estimate the states variables to reject a modeling uncertainty We design the globally bounded output feedback controller using sliding mode control to stabilize the closed-loop system. The globally bounded output feedback controller reduce the peaking in the states variables. The proposed method give a more design freedom in the design of the globally bounded controller than that of the previous work.

  • Four degrees of freedom mathematical model is presented to describe the fundamental mechanisms of the disc brake squeal noise. A contact parameter is introduced to describe the coupling between the in-plane and the out-of-plane motions. The friction coeficient including "relative velocity" and ′normal force" can be generally formulated as the form of multiplication with polynominal parameters(${\beta}$, ${\gamma}$). (omitted)

  • A new curve fitting algorithm based on modal analysis is introduced for extracting the modal parameters from the measured frequency responses. To compensate the effect of cut-off frequency ranges the transfer function including residual mass and residual flexibility is employed. Model parameters are computed from the newly defined form of transfer function in a simple way. The accuracy of this algorithm is proved by applying to the 3 degrees of freedom model and vibration of cantilever beam.
