This paper reports a study on directed transport of a particle over a flat horizontal rigid plate vibrating asymmetrically in its plane. A friction model with both dry and viscous friction terms has been considered. Nonlinear frictional interaction between the particle and the plate, and asymmetry in the vibrations of the plate are essential for the transport process. Two kinds of asymmetry, namely spatial asymmetry, and temporal asymmetry in the plate vibrations have been considered. The mechanism of transport and the transport properties for both kinds of input motion have been clearly brought out. Three nondimensional parameters are found to characterize the transport properties. Two energy metrics have been defined to study and understand the efficiency of the transport process.

The important change in the transition from partial to high automation is that a vehicle can drive autonomously, without active human involvement. This fact increases the current requirements regarding ride comfort and dictates new challenges for automotive shock absorbers. There exist two common types of automotive shock absorber with two friction types: The intended viscous friction dissipates the chassis vibrations, while the unwanted solid body friction is generated by the rubbing of the damper’s seals and guides during actuation. The latter so-called static friction impairs ride comfort and demands appropriate friction modeling for the control of adaptive or active suspension systems. In this article, a simulation approach is introduced to model damper friction based on the most friction-relevant parameters. Since damper friction is highly dependent on geometry, which can vary widely, three-dimensional (3D) structural FEM is used to determine the deformations of the damper parts resulting from mounting and varying operation conditions. In the respective contact zones, a dynamic friction model is applied and parameterized based on the single friction point measurements. Subsequent to the parameterization of the overall friction model with geometry data, operation conditions, material properties and friction model parameters, single friction point simulations are performed, analyzed and validated against single friction point measurements. It is shown that this simulation method allows for friction prediction with high accuracy. Consequently, its application enables a wide range of parameters relevant to damper friction to be investigated with significantly increased development efficiency.

Abstract Bolted connection is one of the most widely used mechanical connections because of its easiness of installation and disassembly. Research of bolted joints mainly focuses on two aspects: high precision tightening and improvement of anti-loosening performance. The under-head bearing friction coefficient and the thread friction coefficient are the two most important parameters that affect the tightening result of the bolted joint. They are also the most critical parameters that affect the anti-loosening performance of the bolted joint. Coulomb friction model is a commonly used model to describe under-head bearing friction and thread friction, which considers the friction coefficient as a constant independent of normal pressure and relative sliding velocity. In this paper, the viscous effect of the under-head bearing friction and thread friction is observed by measuring the friction coefficient of bolted joints. The value of the friction coefficient increases with the increase of the relative sliding velocity and the decrease of the normal pressure. It is found that the Coulomb viscous friction model can better describe the friction coefficient of bolted joints. Taking into account the dense friction effect, the loosening prediction model of bolted joints is modified. The experimental results show that the Coulomb viscous friction model can better describe the under-head bearing friction coefficient and thread friction coefficient. The model considering the dense effect can more accurately predict the loosening characteristics of bolted joints.

In this paper, we provide not only key knowledge for friction model selection among candidate models but also experimental friction features compared with numerical predictions reproduced by the candidate models. A motor-driven one-dimensional sliding block has been designed and fabricated in our lab to carry out a wide range of control tasks for the friction feature demonstrations and the parameter identifications of the candidate models. Besides the well-known static features such as break-away force and viscous friction, our setup experimentally demonstrates subtle dynamic features that characterize the physical behavior. The candidate models coupled with correct parameters experimentally obtained from our setup are taken to simulate the features of interest. The first part of this work briefly introduces the candidate friction models, the friction features of interest, and our experimental approach. The second part of this work is dedicated to the comparisons between the experimental features and the numerical model predictions. The discrepancies between the experimental features and the numerical model predictions help researchers to judge the accuracy of the models. The relation between the candidate model structures and their numerical friction feature predictions is investigated and discussed. A table that summarizes how to select the most optimal friction model among a variety of engineering applications is presented at the end of this paper. Such comprehensive comparisons have not been reported in previous literature.

The Basin Of Attraction

We consider an experimental system consisting of a pendulum, which is free to rotate 360 degrees, attached to a cart which can move in one dimension. There is stick slip friction between the cart and the track on which it moves. Using two different models for this friction we design feedback controllers to stabilize the pendulum in the upright position. We show that controllers based on either friction model give better performance than one based on a simple viscous friction model. We then study the effect of time delay in this controller, by calculating the critical time delay where the system loses stability and comparing the calculated value with experimental data. Both models lead to controllers with similar robustness with respect to delay. Using numerical simulations, we show that the effective critical time delay of the experiment is much less than the calculated theoretical value because the basin of attraction of the stable equilibrium point is very small.

The dynamics of a PHANToM Premium 1.5A haptic device from SensAble Technologies, Inc. is experimentally identified and analyzed for different installations of the device and its accessories, such as the typical upright, upside down, with gimbal and counterbalance weight, and with force sensor.1 An earlier formulation of the robot dynamic model is augmented with a friction model, linearly parameterized, and experimentally identified using least squares. The identified dynamics are experimentally evaluated with an inverse dynamics controller and verified by comparing user hand force estimates with the measured values. The contribution of different dynamic terms such as inertial, Coriolis and centrifugal, gravitational, and Coulomb and viscous friction are demonstrated and discussed. The identified model can be used for a variety of haptic applications, such as hand force estimation, accurate active gravity compensation and counterbalance weight determination for various installation conditions, and model-based control for haptic simulation and teleoperation.

In this work, grey and black-box approaches are used in order to model a electromechanical positioning system (EMPS). An ensemble model is then constructed by combining these two approaches, by using the predictions of both models in order to generate an improved estimated output. Four friction models, in their symmetric and asymmetric versions,namely (i) Coulomb model with finite slope at zero velocity and viscous friction, (ii) Coulomb model with viscous friction, (iii) Tustin friction model, (iv) Coulomb model with viscous friction and Stribeck effect were used to describe the dynamic behavior of the EMPS. The results have shown that the combination of grey and black-box models was able to perform better than the grey-box model and that the proposed friction models are also able to improve the relativeerror. This encourages further research on the application of the concept of ensemble model construction from machine learning to the nonlinear system identication context towards more accurate model construction.

The ever-increasing use of artificial satellites in both the study of terrestrial and space phenomena demands a search for increasingly accurate and reliable pointing systems. It is common nowadays to employ reaction wheels for attitude control that provide wide range of torque magnitude, high reliability, and little power consumption. However, the bearing friction causes the response of wheel to be nonlinear, which may compromise the stability and precision of the control system as a whole. This work presents a characterization of a typical reaction wheel of 0.65 Nms maximum angular momentum storage, in order to estimate their friction parameters. It used a friction model that takes into account the Coulomb friction, viscous friction, and static friction, according to the Stribeck formulation. The parameters were estimated by means of a nonlinear batch least squares procedure, from data raised experimentally. The results have shown wide agreement with the experimental data and were also close to a deterministic model, previously obtained for this wheel. This model was then employed in a Dynamic Model Compensator (DMC) control, which successfully reduced the attitude steady state error of an instrumented one-axis air-bearing table.

To achieve more accurate simulation and control in the use of the manipulator, it is necessary to establish an accurate dynamic model of the redundant manipulator. The research of this article focuses on the dynamic parameter identification method of the redundant manipulator. In the study, the spinor theory is applied to the Newton–Euler dynamic equation, the Coulomb + viscous friction model is adopted, and the minimum parameter set is obtained by linearization derivation. The parameter identification of the manipulator is realized using the method of offline identification of the measured current, and the coefficient of the excitation trajectory is optimized using the nonlinear optimization function. Finally, the parameter set with high accuracy is obtained, and the motion trajectory of each joint can be obtained. The scheme has high accuracy and can meet the needs of practical application. To verify the accuracy and reliability of this method, we have carried out experiments on a service robot “Walker” and obtained the desired results.

The most important change in the transition from partial to high automation is that the vehicle can drive autonomously, without active human involvement. This fact increases the current requirements regarding ride comfort and dictates new challenges for automotive shock absorbers. There exist two common types of automotive shock absorbers with two friction types.

The latter so-called static friction impairs ride comfort and demands appropriate friction modeling for the control of adaptive or active suspension systems. In the current article, the simulation approach introduced in part 1 of this study is validated against a single friction point and full damper friction measurements. To achieve that, a friction measurement method with novel test rigs has been developed, which allows for reliable determination of the friction behavior of each single friction point, while appropriately resembling the operating conditions of the real damper. The subsequent presentation of a friction simulation using friction model parameters from different geometry shows the general applicability of the overall friction investigation methodology. Accordingly, the presented simulation and measurement approaches enable the investigation of dynamic friction in automotive shock absorbers with significantly increased development efficiency.
