  • Inductive dynamic drives (IDD) are ultra rapid actuators where the moving part (disc) is subjected to impulse force. This paper presents the second model of inductive dynamic drive - a mechanical model where analytic- numerical approach was applied. The magnetic pressure, which was determined on the basis of the results obtained in the electrodynamic model, becomes the input data for mechanical model. Research with application of the mechanical model is necessary in order to determine the proper disc oscillation frequency and to obtain the stress state control for drive elements to be designed. Also, the selection of drive parameters to keep the disc deformation insignificant (while oscillating) is a condition under which these models do not need to be coupled together.

  • In this paper, the purpose is to study a method for detection of crack in clamped-clamped beams using the vibration characteristics. The natural frequency of beam is obtained by FEM and experiment. The governing differential equations of a Timoshenko beam are derived via Hamilton's principle. The two coupled governing differential equations are reduced to one fourth order ordinary differential equation in terms of the flexural displacement. The crack is assumed to be in the first mode of fracture and to be always opened during the vibrations. The differences between the actual and predicted crack positions and sizes are less than 9.8% and 28%, respectively.

  • As the structures become larger, higher and more complicated, the demand for safety level has increased. In recent years, TLD(Tuned Liquid Damper) proved to be a successful control tool for reducing structural vibrations. For this reason, the influence of some key parameters of the U-type TLD on the dynamic response is studied. And simple and effectively developed learning control logic is used to control vibration of U type Tuned Liquid Damper system. The purpose of this paper is design optimal control system to deal with unknown errors from non linearity and variation that cost modeling difficulty in complex structure and is followed with the desired behavior. Finally this hybrid control method applied to U type Tuned Liquid Damper structure gives the benefit from better performance of precision and stability of the structure by reducing vibration effect. This research leads to safety design in various structure to robust unspecified foreign disturbances such as windy-load and earthquake.

  • Nano-measurement systems such as scanning probe microscopes should be protected against external disturbances. For the design of a scanning probe microscope, the external vibrations need to be characterized and the vibrational properties of the structural frame itself should be modeled. Also, the influences of the external vibration on the apparatus need to be known for its utmost precision. In this paper, the combined vibrational-characteristics of the floor and the structural frame are analyzed and experimentally investigated.

  • Based upon differential quadrature method (DQM) and nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT), mechanical-hygro-thermal vibrational analyzes of shear deformable porous functionally graded (FG) nanoplate on visco-elastic medium has been performed. The presented formulation incorporates two scale factors for examining vibrational behaviors of nano-dimension plates more accurately. The material properties for FG plate are porosity-dependent and defined employing a modified power-law form. It is supposed that the nano-size plate is exposed to hygro-thermal and variable compressive mechanical loadings. The governing equations achieved by Hamilton's principle are solved implementing DQM. Presented results indicate the prominence of moisture/temperature variation, damping factor, material gradient index, nonlocal coefficient, strain gradient coefficient and porosities on vibrational frequencies of FG nano-size plate.

  • This research paper proposes a novel methodology for predicting the optimal location of friction supports to effectively mitigate vibrational energy in piping systems. The incorporation of friction forces in the dynamic characteristics of the system introduces inherent nonlinearity, making its analysis challenging. Typically, numerical solutions in the time domain are employed to circumvent the complexities associated with finding analytic solutions for nonlinear systems. However, time domain analysis (TDA) can be computationally intensive and demand significant computational resources due to the intricate calculations stemming from nonlinearity. To address this computational burden, this study presents an efficient approach based on linear analysis to predict the ideal position for installing friction supports as a replacement for fixed supports. Furthermore, we investigate the relationship between the installation positions of friction supports and their effectiveness in absorbing vibrations using the harmonic balanced method (HBM). Both methodologies are validated by comparing the obtained results with those obtained through time domain analysis (TDA) using the finite element method (FEM).

  • This research focuses on reducers, vital components in service robots, with a special emphasis on friction reducers designed for use in environments where interaction with humans is essential. For service robots to effectively perform advanced tasks, it is crucial to have reducers that offer high precision, high reduction ratios, and strong resistance to impacts. To meet these requirements, our study introduces a new design methodology and proposes a friction reducer featuring a multi-layer ball array structure. Compared to traditional gearbox-based reducers, the friction reducer developed in this study demonstrates a higher reduction ratio and improved shock absorption. The performance of this newly proposed reducer has been verified through experimental analysis. It was confirmed that by minimizing drive losses, the system has high backdrivability, delivering a torque of 15 Nm. Additionally, it was observed that the system showed an immediate response without backlash to fine input vibrations.
