This paper reports production of 4.5 μm-diameter monodisperse water droplets using silicon-based one MHz ultrasonic nozzles of a novel design. The novel design of multiple Fourier horns in resonance facilitates pure capillary wave mechanism atomization. The measured drop diameters are in very good agreement with those predicted by the capillary wave atomization mechanism. Due to the resonance effect, the power and voltage requirements for atomization were as low as 15 mW and 6.5 V at atomization rate as high as 300 μl/min. The droplet diameter was reduced to 4.1 μm when the surface tension of the liquid was reduced from 70 dyne/cm (water) to 50 dyne/cm (0.25% Triton X-100 surfactant solution). Such small diameter drops with GSD (geometrical standard deviation) as small as 1.1 was achieved in ultrasonic atomization for the first time. Note that the fraction of all particles smaller than 5.8 μm in diameter represents the inhaleable fine particle fraction and GSD of 1.3 or smaller is commonly accepted as the standard for monodispersity. Therefore, the MEMS-based MHz ultrasonic nozzle should have very significant impacts on targeted delivery of reproducible doses of medicine to the respiratory system.

The present research work is a part of a project was a semi-active structural control technique using magneto-rheological damper has to be performed. Magneto-rheological dampers are an innovative class of semi-active devices that mesh well with the demands and constraints of seismic applications; this includes having very low power requirements and adaptability. A small stroke magneto-rheological damper was mathematically simulated and experimentally tested. The damper was subjected to periodic excitations of different amplitudes and frequencies at varying voltage. The damper was mathematically modeled using parametric Modified Bouc-Wen model of magneto-rheological damper in MATLAB/SIMULINK and the parameters of the model were set as per the prototype available. The variation of mechanical properties of magneto-rheological damper like damping coefficient and damping force with a change in amplitude, frequency and voltage were experimentally verified on INSTRON 8800 testing machine. It was observed that damping force produced by the damper depended on the frequency as well, in addition to the input voltage and amplitude of the excitation. While the damping coefficient (c) is independent of the frequency of excitation it varies with the amplitude of excitation and input voltage. The variation of the damping coefficient with amplitude and input voltage is linear and quadratic respectively. More ever the mathematical model simulated in MATLAB was in agreement with the experimental results obtained.

Abstract Radial tires for automobiles were subjected to high speed rolling under load on a testing wheel to determine the critical speeds at which standing waves started to form. Tires of different makes had significantly different critical speeds. The damping coefficient and mass per unit length of the tire wall were measured and a correlation between these properties and the observed critical speed of standing wave formation was sought through use of a circular membrane model. As expected from the model, desirably high critical speed calls for a high damping coefficient and a low mass per unit length of the tire wall. The damping coefficient is particularly important. Surprisingly, those tire walls that were reinforced with steel cord had higher damping coefficients than did those reinforced with polymeric cord. Although the individual steel filaments are elastic, the interfilament friction is higher in the steel cords than in the polymeric cords. A steel-reinforced tire wall also has a higher density per unit length. The damping coefficient is directly related to the mechanical loss in cyclic deformation and, hence, to the rolling resistance of a tire. The study shows that, in principle, it is more difficult to design a tire that is both fuel-efficient and free from standing waves when steel cord is used than when polymeric cords are used.
