In this study, axial vibration analysis has been conducted on a propulsion and lift shafting system for an air cushion vehicle using ANSYS code. The shafting system is totally flexible multi-elements system including wood composite material of air propeller. aluminum alloy of lift fan and thin walled shaft with flexible coupling. The analysis calculated the axial natural frequencies and mode shapes of the shafting system taking into account an equivalent mass-elastic model for shafting system as well as the three-dimensional models for propeller blade and fan impeller. Such a flexible shafting system has very intricate vibrating characteristics and especially, axial natural frequencies of flexible components such as propeller blade and impeller of lift fan can be lower to the extent that causes a resonance in the range of operating revolution. The results for axial vibration analysis are presented and compared with the results of axial vibration test for lift fan conducted during Sea Trial.

An industrial robot, installed real manufacturing processes an element of the system autmation, can be considered as an uncertain system due to dynamic uncertainties in inertial parameters and varying payloads. Most difficuties in controlling a robot manipulator are caused by the fact that the dynamic equations describing the motions of the manipulator are inherently nonlinear and heavily coupled effects between joints and associated links. Existing robot conrol systems have constant predefined gains and do not cover the complex dynamic interactions between manipulator joints. As a result, the manipulator is severly limited in range of application, speed of operation and variation of payload. The proposed controller is operated by adjusting its gains based on the response of the manipulator in such a way that the manipulator closely matches the reference model trajectories defined by the desinger. The proposed manipulator studied has two loops, an inner loop of model reference adaptive controller and an outer loop of state feedback controller with integral action to guarantee the stability of the adaptive scheme. This adaptation algorithm is based on the hyperstailiy approach with an improved Lyapunov function. The coupling among joints and the nonlinearity in the dynamic equation are explicitly considered. The designed manipulator controller shows good tracking performance in practical working environment, various load variations and parameter uncertainties.

This paper establishes a coding method system including the liberation and size distribution of recycling materials in the shredder operation. Every particle in the shredded product becomes a code number using the liberation model and size distribution equation transforming of weight percentage into particles number percentage. One set of database can be obtained after all particles have been coded. This database is suitable for the size reduction operation in the process simulation of waste recycling. Coupling with the developed air classification, sizing and separating operations, the whole process simulation will be completely established for diversified application. A typical simulation for the rolling cutting shredder product of waste TV had been demonstrated under this coding system. The breakage size distribution of Gaudin and Schumann equation were selected for the shredding operation simulation. The Gaudin's liberation model was suitable fur the liberation simulation. Both of these equations were transformed weight percentage into particles distribution for the necessary of particle coding method. A better recycling operation for this shredded solid waste can be concluded from the comparison of simulation results with their sorted grade, recovery or economic of materials in different processes.

Structural model of laminated composite plates based on the first order shear deformable plate theory and subjected to a combination of magnetic and thermal fields is developed. Coupled equations of motion are derived via Hamilton's principle on the basis of electromagnetic equations (Faraday, Ampere, Ohm, and Lorentz equations) and thermal ones which are involved in constitutive equations. In order to reveal the implications of a number of geometrical and physical features of the model, free vibration of a composite plate immersed in a transversal magnetic field and subjected to a temperature gradient is considered. Special coupling effects between the magnetic-thermal-elastic fields are revealed in this paper.

Up to now, most robot control systems are very naive. They consist of a number of independent position-servo loops to control each joint angle separately. Those control systems have constant predefined gains and do not cover the complex dynamic interactions between manipulator joints. As a result, the manipulator is severely limited in range of application, speed of operation and variation of payload. This study proposed a new method to design a robot manipulator controller capable of tracking the reference trajectories of joint angles in a reasonable accuracy to cope with actual situations of varying payload, uncertain parameters. The adaptive model following control method has been used to improve existing robot manipulator controllers. The proposed controller is operated by adjusting its gains based on the response of the manipulator in such a way that the manipulator closely matches the reference model trajectories defined by the designer. The stability of adaptive controller is based on the Second Method of Lyapunov. The coupling among joints and the nonlinearity in the dynamic equation are explicitly considered. The designed manipulator controller shows good tracking performance under various load varia- tion and parameter uncertainties.

The erosion of solid particles in a pipe elbow was numerically investigated. A numerical procedure to estimate the sand erosion rate, as well as the particle motion, in the pipe elbow flow was introduced. This procedure was performed based on the combined empirical erosion model and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis to consider the interaction between the particle motion and the eroded surface. The underlying turbulent flow on an Eulerian frame is described by the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with a $k-{\epsilon}$ turbulent model. The one-way coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian motion of the air flow and sand particles is employed to simulate the particle trajectories and particle-wall interactions on the pipe surfaces. The predicted CFD erosion magnitudes are compared with experimental data from pipe elbows. The erosion rate results do not reveal a good accordance between the simulation and experimental results. It seems that the CFD shows a slightly over-predicted erosion ratio.

A novel and efficient approach for the numerical solution of time-dependent coupled-wave equations, which are frequently used for the modeling of DFB(Distributed Feedback), DBR(Distributed Bragg Reflector), and FP(Fabry Perot) laser diodes, is proposed. In this approach, the coupled wave equations are split into two sets of equations. One of two sets of equations contains only the phase factors and the other contains only the coupling terms. The separate equations are solved exactly in their split form successively. This new numerical scheme, which we call the SS-TDM(Split-Step Time Domain Model), is found to require an order of magnitude smaller number of subsections to get accurate results than the previous methods while the computation time for each time step is comparable to the previous methods.

With the results of calculation for natural frequencies, the forced reponses of coupled vibration of propulsion shafting were analysed by the modal analysis method. For the forced response analysis, axial exciting forces, axial damper/detuner, propeller exciting forces and damping coefficients were extensively investigated. As the conclusion of this study, some items are cleared as next. - The torsional amplitudes are not influenced by the radial excitation forces. - The axial vibrational amplitudes are influenced by the tangential exciting forces. An increase of amplitude is observed for the speed range in the neighbourhood of any torsional critical speed. - The coupling effect becomes larger if torsional and axial critical speed are closer together. - The axial exciting force of propeller is relatively strong, comparing with those of axial forces of cylinder gas pressure and oscillating inertia of reciprocating mechanism. Therefore, as a resume one can say, that- Torsional vibration calculation with the classical one dimension model is still valid. - The influence of torsional excitation at each crank upon the axial vibration is impotent, especially in the neighbourhood of a torsional critical speed. That means that the calculation of axial vibration with the classical one dimension model is insufficient in most of cases. - The torsional exciting torque of propeller can be neglected in most of cases. But, the axial exciting forces of propeller can not be neglected for calculating axial vibration of propulsion shafting.

The combustion instability was experimentally investigated in model gas turbine combustor with dual swirl burner. When such instability occurs, a strong coupling between pressure oscillation and unsteady heat release excites a self-sustained acoustic wave which results in a loud sound, and can even cause fatal damage to the combustor and entire system. In present study, to understand the combustion instability with a premixed mixture, the detailed periods of pressure and heat release data in unstable flame mode were investigated by various measurement methods at relatively rich condition and lean condition near flammable limits. Also, to prepare the utilization of synthetic natural gas (SNG) fuel in gas turbine system, an investigation was conducted using a simulated SNG including methane as a reference fuel to examine the effects of $H_2$ content on flame stability. These results provide that the instability due to flash-back behaviour like CIVB phenomenon occurred at rich condition, while the repetition of relighting and extinction caused the oscillation of lean condition near flammable limit. From the analysis of $H_2$ content effects, it is also confirmed that the instability frequency is proportional to the laminar burning velocity at both rich and lean condition.
