This paper presents a maneuver analysis of a full-vehicle featuring electrorheological (ER) suspension and ER brake. In order to achieve this goal, an ER damper and an ER valve pressure modulator are devised to construct ER suspension and ER brake systems, respectively. After formulating the governing equations of the ER damper and ER valve pressure modulator, they are designed and manufactured for a middle-sized passenger vehicle, and their field-dependent characteristics are experimentally evaluated. The governing equation of motion for the full-vehicle is then established and integrated with the governing equations of the ER suspension and ER brake. Subsequently, a sky-hook controller for the ER suspension and a sliding mode controller for the ER brake are formulated and implemented. Control performances such as vertical displacement and braking distance of vehicle are evaluated under various driving conditions through computer simulations.

This study deals with progressive collapse of a structure retrofitted with MR dampers. In order to assess their effect of mitigation which prevents progressive collapse, control force ratio is defined by friction force of MR dampers divided by external force. First, simple model of a structure with MR dampers is suggested. Using the model, exact solution with the control force ratio is obtained. When and where the system is stopped is predicted by the derived solution. Through the dissipated energy by MR dampers during collapse event, equivalent damping ratio is derived. Finally, comparison of exact and equivalent solutions is presented.

In this study, a new knocking control algorithm was developed using the knock threshold value auto-correction algorithm. This algorithm uses the Fast Fourier Transform9FFT) method by measuring cylinder block vibration signals of a 1498 cc four-cylinder spark ignition engine. The experimental results show the proposed knock control algorithm provides improved performance compared to existing methods. The results also show that the proposed FFT algorithm provides real-time adjustment of the knock threshold value.

This paper is concerned with the active vibration control of plate system using electromagnetic force actuator. The transfer function from the force input to the bending displacement was obtained via modal analysis results. Control algorithm are proposed and implemented on the experimental setups to show their efficacy. In this paper, the genetic algorithm is used to design a $H_2$ controller. Effectiveness and performance of the designed controller were verified by simulation and experiment results.

Serviceability of buildings is affect by excessive acceleration experienced at the top floors in wind storms that may cause discomfort to the occupants. Tuned liquid damper(TLD) and multiple tuned liquid damper(MTLD) are passive control devices that consists of rigid tank filled with liquid to suppress the vibration of structures. This TLD and MTLD are attributable to several potential advantages - low costs; easy to install in existing structures; effective even for small-amplitude vibrations. In this paper, the behavior of TLD and MTLD are investigated analytically and wind tunnel test of high-frequency force balance.

The role of suspension system in tracked vehicles cannot be overestimated because the driving and running conditions of such vehicles are very severe. It reduces the vibration and shock which are generated by road profile in running condition. As the tracked vehicle's running speed increases, more undesired vibrations can be generated by road profile particularly in the situation of field running. Because, the excessive vibration can harm the operation ability of crewmen and stability of complex equipments, the maximum running speed is limited. In this study, to improve the performance of the tracked vehicle system, we examined the feasibility of using the active preview control for the tracked vehicle´s suspension system. First, we developed ...

Magnetic bearings have been adopted to support the rotor by electromagnetic force without mechanical contact and have many advantages. The application of the magnetic bearings have become more and more widespread in recent years. But magnetic bearings require feedback control for stable operation because they are inherently open loop unstable systems. In this study, H infinity controller has been applied for rotor-magnetic bearing system for vibration control. The result showed that H infinity controller has better performance than PID controller through simulations.

In this work, we propose a new type of HDD suspension featuring shape memory ally (SMA) actuator in order to prevent the contact between the slider and disk. The principal design parameters are obtained from the modal analysis using finite element analysis, and then the dynamic model is established to formulate the control scheme for Non-Contact Start/Stop mode drive. Subsequently, a robust Η$_{\infty}$, control algorithm is designed by integrating experimentally-obtained SMA actuator dynamics to the proposed suspension system. The controller is empirically realized and control results for different load/unload profiles are presented in time domain. In addition, the contact signal between the slider and disk is measured by the electrical resistance method.istance method.

This paper reports the performance and the Algorithm of an 1/3-octave band spectrum control system. The system is developed to provide various required spectrums in a high intensity acoustic chamber. The required spectrums, which usually comes from launch vehicle specification, starts from 25㎐ band and ends 10,000㎐. Short settling time is required to guarantee the safety of test objects and reduce the amount of operating gas. (omitted)
