The Finite Element Analysis

The traditional measurement platform for unbalance moment exploits the knife-edge as the support module but its performance rapidly deteriorates as the edge is worn down. In this paper, the flexure mechanism is utilized to overcome this drawback. The generalized cross-spring pivot is designed to achieve the approximate constant rotational stiffness and reduced center shift, which will benefit the control system and calibration procedure. A 2-DOF flexure mechanism is thus proposed by taking the practical application into account, such as manufacturability, performances of sensor and actuator. The finite element analysis (FEA) is carried out to verify the validation of design. Finally, the experiment is implemented and the results show a high accuracy: the error is less than 2.4g·mm even though the payload is up to 7kg and the unbalance moment is 100g·mm.

The Finite Element Analysis

Focusing on low-frequency shaking of the construction machine cab, the article analyzes reasons of the shaking and shows several improved isolator designs to reduce the effect of shaking on drivers’ comfort. Firstly according to previous 4 modes below 26 Hz from the finite element analysis of an excavator cab with 6 cab mounts, reasons for low-frequency shaking are analyzed. Then two improved measures of isolator designs for keeping the shaking small effectively are considered. Static analysis on one silicone-oil-sealed-type rubber mount, which can improve drivers’ comfort effectively according to practical application, is done. Besides, perfect setting approaches of isolators can greatly alleviate the cab shaking, which is confirmed by finite element modal analysis of the excavator cab, the first natural frequency of cab increased to 15.55Hz from 6.91Hz.

Abstract The effects of variations in stiffness and geometry on the nonuniformity of tires are investigated by using the finite element analysis. In order to evaluate tire uniformity, a three-dimensional finite element model of the tire with imperfections is developed. This paper considers how imperfections, such as variations in stiffness or geometry and run-out, contribute to detrimental effects on tire nonuniformity. It is found that the radial force variation of a tire with imperfections depends strongly on the geometrical variations of the tire.

Directivity Characteristics

We propose a model to give us a method to investigate the characteristic three-dimensional directivity in an arbitrarily configured flexible electret-based loudspeaker. In recent years, novel electret loudspeakers have attracted much interest due to their being lightweight, paper thin, and possessing excellent mid- to high-frequency responses. Increasing or decreasing the directivity of an electret loudspeaker makes it excellent for adoption to many applications, especially for directing sound to a particular area or specific audio location. Herein, we detail a novel electret loudspeaker that possesses various directivities and is based on various structures of spacers instead of having to use multichannel amplifiers and a complicated digital control system. In order to study the directivity of an electret loudspeaker based on an array structure which can be adopted for various applications, the horizontal and vertical polar directivity characteristics as a function of frequency were simulated by a finite-element analysis model. To validate the finite-element analysis model, the beam pattern of the electret loudspeaker was measured in an anechoic room. Both the simulated and experimental results are detailed in this article to validate the various assertions related to the directivity of electret cell-based smart speakers.
