This work centered on the double-toggle clamping mechanism with diagonal-five points for the high-speed precise plastic injection machine. Based on Lagrange equations, the differential equations of motion for the beam elements are established, in a rotating coordinate system and an absolute coordinate system, respectively. 43 generalized coordinates and a model matrix for the mechanism are created and some coordinate matrices are derived. By coupling the coordinate transformation and matrix manipulation, a high nonlinear and strong time-variant elastic dynamic model is obtained. Based on the dynamic model, a Kineto-Elasto Dynamics (KED) analysis and a Kineto-Elasto Static (KES) analysis are carried out, respectively. By comparing and analyzing the simulation results of KED and KES, the regularity of elastic vibration of the clamping mechanism in high-speed clamping process has been revealed.

This paper presents a study of the dynamic behavior of a coupled train-slab track system considering discrete rail pads. The slab track is modeled as a three-layer Timoshenko beam. The study is carried out using the moving element method (MEM). By introducing a convected coordinate system moving at the same speed as the vehicle, the governing equations of motion of the slab track are formulated in a moving frame-of-reference. By adopting Galerkin’s method, the element stiffness, mass and damping matrices of a truncated slab track in the moving coordinate system are derived. The vehicle is modeled as a multi-body with 10 degrees of freedom. The nonlinear Hertz contact model is used to account for the wheel–rail interaction. The Newmark integration method, in conjunction with a global Newton–Raphson iteration algorithm, is employed to solve the nonlinear dynamic equations of motion of the vehicle–track coupled system. The proposed MEM model of the system is validated through comparison with available results in the literature. Further study is then made to investigate the vehicle–track system accounting for track irregularities modeled as short harmonic wave forms. Results showed that irregularities with short wavelengths have a significant effect on wheel–rail contact force and rail acceleration, and the dynamic response of the track structure does not increase monotonously with the increase of the vehicle speed.

A dynamic model for deep groove and angular contact ball bearings was developed to investigate the influence of race defects on the motions of bearing components (i.e., inner and outer races, cage, and balls). In order to determine the effects of dents on the bearing dynamics, a model was developed to determine the force-deflection relationship between an ellipsoid and a dented semi-infinite domain. The force-deflection relationship for dented surfaces was then incorporated in the bearing dynamic model by replacing the well-known Hertzian force-deflection relationship whenever a ball/dent interaction occurs. In this investigation, all bearing components have six degrees-of-freedom. Newton’s laws are used to determine the motions of all bearing elements, and an explicit fourth-order Runge–Kutta algorithm with a variable or constant step size was used to integrate the equations of motion. A model was used to study the effect of dent size, dent location, and inner race speed on bearing components. The results indicate that surface defects and irregularities like dent have a severe effect on bearing motion and forces. Furthermore, these effects are even more severe for high-speed applications. The results also demonstrate that a single dent can affect the forces and motion throughout the entire bearing and on all bearing components. However, the location of the dent dictates the magnitude of its influence on each bearing component.

Until recently, vibration effects have generally been neglected in the design of high-speed machines and mechanisms. This has been primarily due to the complexity of the mathematical analysis of mechanisms with elastic links. With the advent of high-speed computers and structural dynamics techniques, such as finite element analysis, this is no longer regarded as such a formidable task. To date, with few exceptions, the analysis of elastic mechanism systems have been limited to a single type of mechanism (i.e., a four-bar or slider-crank) modeled with a small number of simple finite elements (usually beam elements). This paper develops the generalized equations of motion for elastic mechanism systems by utilizing finite element theory. The derivation and final form of the equations of motion provide the capability to model a general two- or three-dimensional complex elastic mechanism, to include the nonlinear rigid-body and elastic motion coupling terms in a general representation, and to allow any finite element type to be utilized in the model. A discussion of a solution method, applications, as well as an experimental investigation of an elastic four-bar mechanism will be presented in subsequent publications.

The increasing applications of flexible parallel robots in industrial production have presented the advantages of light weight and high speed, but at the same time, the elastic vibration problem has emerged. By investigating the modal features of flexible parallel robots so as to suppress the elastic vibration, with pinned-pinned as flexible intermediate links boundary conditions, this article analyzes the rigid-flexible coupling dynamic mathematical model of the 3-RRR (3-Rotate-Rotate-Rotate) flexible planar parallel robot with flexible intermediate links. The effect of the extremity concentrated rotation inertia of flexible intermediate links is considered in the mathematical model. Besides, the effect of inertia and coupling force on the dynamic model and the first three-order vibration responses of flexible intermediate links were discussed based on the established model. The corresponding spectrum characteristics were studied using fast Fourier transform. Comparing the frequency characteristics obtained by theoretical model and modal experiment, it was found that the results obtained by the dynamic mathematical model are quite close to the test results. Less dynamic parameters make it convenient to carry out the control program.

The impact factors in the vertical deflection obtained in dynamic analysis of BTT systems - bridged / track structure / high speed train (BTT) - are discussed. The BTT system is one of 5 bridges spanning from 15 m to 27 m, modelled as simply supported beams loaded by ICE-3 trains traveling at high speeds. The two-dimensional, physically non-linear BTT model includes: viscoelastic suspension of rail vehicles on two independent axle bogies and non-linear one-sided wheel-rail contact springs according to Hertz theory, access zones for composite construction. The BTT system was divided into subsystems loaded with vertical interactions transmitted by elastic or viscoelastic and physically linear or nonlinear constraints. Using Lagrange equations and internal aggregation of subsystems, discretised according to the finite element method, matrix equations of motion of the subsystems were obtained, with explicit linear left sides and nonlinear implicit right sides, which were integrated numerically using the Newmark method with parameters βN=1/4, γN=1/2. The analysis focus on the effect of random track irregularities on the dynamic response of BTT systems.

Rotating systems components such as rotors, have dynamic characteristics that are of great importance to understand because they may cause failure of turbomachinery. Therefore, it is required to study a dynamic model to predict some vibration characteristics, in this case, the natural frequencies and mode shapes (both of free vibration) of a centrifugal compressor shaft. The peculiarity of the dynamic model proposed is that using frequency and displacements values obtained experimentally, it is possible to calculate the mass and stiffness distribution of the shaft, and then use these values to estimate the theoretical modal parameters. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of the shaft were obtained with experimental modal analysis by using the impact test. The results predicted by the model are in good agreement with the experimental test. The model is also flexible with other geometries and has a great time and computing performance, which can be evaluated with respect to other commercial software in the future.

AbstractThe principle of least effort has been widely used to explain phenomena related to human behavior ranging from topics in language to those in social systems. It has precedence in the principle of least action from the Lagrangian formulation of classical mechanics. In this study, we present a model for interceptive human walking based on the least action principle. Taking inspiration from Lagrangian mechanics, a Lagrangian is defined as effort minus security, with two different specific mathematical forms. The resulting Euler–Lagrange equations are then solved to obtain the equations of motion. The model is validated using experimental data from a virtual reality crossing simulation with human participants. We thus conclude that the least action principle provides a useful tool in the study of interceptive walking.

High-speed tactile roughness measurements set high demand on the trackability of the stylus probe. Because of the features of low mass, low probing force, and high signal linearity, the piezoresistive silicon microprobe is a hopeful candidate for high-speed roughness measurements. This paper investigates the trackability of these microprobes through building a theoretical dynamic model, measuring their resonant response, and performing tip-flight experiments on surfaces with sharp variations. Two microprobes are investigated and compared: one with an integrated silicon tip and one with a diamond tip glued to the end of the cantilever. The result indicates that the microprobe with the silicon tip has high trackability for measurements up to traverse speeds of 10 mm/s, while the resonant response of the microprobe with diamond tip needs to be improved for the application in high-speed topography measurements.

During the operation of electric induction motors used to drive passenger elevators, electro-mechanical transient processes occur, which can cause unacceptable dynamic loads and vibrations. In this regard, research is needed both at the design stage and for operating elevator systems to determine the arising impact currents and torques, in order to propose solutions for their limitation within pre-set limits. Paper deals with starting processes in a two-speed induction motor drive of a passenger elevator. The equations for the voltages of the induction motor are presented in relative units in a coordinate system rotating at a synchronous speed. The values have been obtained for the torques, the rotational frequencies and the currents when starting at a high speed and passing from high to low speed.
