Semi-numerical analysis of a two-stage series composite planetary transmission considering IHB and MsP methods
This study conducts an analytical investigation of the dynamic response characteristics of a two-stage series composite system (TsSCS) with a planetary transmission consisting of dual-power branches. An improved incremental harmonic balance (IHB) method, based on the arc length extension technique, is proposed. The results are compared with those of the numerical integration method to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the improved method. Following that, the multi-scale perturbation (MsP) method is applied to the TsSCS proposed in this paper. The frequency response equations of the primary resonance, subharmonic resonance, and superharmonic resonance are solved to generate the frequency response characteristic curves of the planetary transmission system in this method. A comparison between the results obtained by the MsP method and the numerical integration method proves that the former is ideal and credible in most regions. Considering the parameters of TsSCS excitation frequency and damping, the nonlinear response characteristics of steady-state motion are mutually converted. The effects of the time-varying parameters and the nonlinear deenthing caused by the gear teeth clearance on the amplitude-frequency characteristics of TsSCS components are studied in this special topic
Design and implementation of an optical fiber sensing based vibration monitoring system
Vibration analysis is generally used in the industries for condition monitoring of various electromechanical equipment. For the predictive maintenance of the industry equipment, several techniques have been applied which are based on capacitive and piezoelectric accelerometers. However, they possess several real time problems due to the negative influence of electromagnetic interference. The major problem lies in the detection and transmission of various physical parameters in the noisy and harsh environment. In order to solve the weak points of commonly used structural vibration detection sensors that are easily affected by the harsh environment of the engineering site, the principle of optical fiber sensing is studied, and the system optical path is designed based on MZ interference technology. In this work, a special data acquisition and processing software is developed to acquire the sensed data and the vibration detection is carried out on the steel cantilever structure pasted with fiber optic sensors. Extraction using FFT and pattern recognition through bp neural network yields the system accuracy rate of 96.7 %. The proposed interference type optical fiber technology provides a novel approach for real-time monitoring of engineering structure vibration laying the foundation for the research of intelligent buildings
Study on the regulation function of spinal cord micro-stimulation signal parameters on hind limb movement in rats
Functional electrical stimulation of the spinal cord can evoke limb movement in patients with motor dysfunction caused by injury or pathology. Research question: However, the adjustment function of micro-stimulation signal parameters in the spinal cord on the motion of hind limbs about rodents has not been identified. The amplitude, frequency and pulse width of the spinal cord micro-stimulation signal were adjusted to quantitatively analyze the changes of the joint angles when the hindlimb produced extension and flexion responses. When the rat’s extension and flexion responses are induced, the optimal stimulus signal amplitudes are 40 µA and 90 µA respectively. At the same time, the optimal stimulation signal frequency range is (35±5) Hz and the best pulse width of the stimulation signal is 200 µs. The results can provide a further reference for the development of spinal cord stimulator for hindlimb regulation
Analysis of projectile-barrel coupling vibration characteristics considering the radial effect of propellant gas pressure
In view of the influence of projectile-barrel coupling on tank firing accuracy, a finite element model of projectile-barrel coupling based on vibration theory was established. By defining user subroutines to simulate the change of the physical field of interior ballistics, the load condition under which the propellant gas radial pressure acts on the inner wall of the barrel and varies with the motion of the projectile is realized. On this basis, the dynamic characteristics of projectile-barrel coupling considering the radial effect of propellant gas pressure were studied. The reference targets such as cradle, projectile and muzzle were selected for analysis, and compared with the situation without considering the radial effect of propellant gas pressure. The results show that the motion trend of the projectile in the bore and the response law of muzzle vibration change greatly when considering the radial effect of propellant gas pressure and these changes may seriously affect the law of projectile dispersion. The radial effect of propellant gas pressure can cause stronger dynamic response, which cannot be ignored in the simulation of artillery firing process. This work provides a practical reference for further study of tank firing accuracy
Optimal analysis of gear modification fitting in alternating time domain aiming at minimizing meshing-in impact of teeth-pair contact interface
In a pair of actual gears alternating meshing process, the transmission system errors and thermal elastic deformation of the gear teeth can cause gears in the meshing zone to form high contact pairs inconsistently mesh-in and mesh-out points to deviate from the theoretical line, which will lead to sudden changes in meshing velocity and an instantaneous meshing effect. Offline meshing impact generates large additional loads, and it increases the vibration and noise of gear transmission system. Further, the gear teeth mesh-in impact is significantly greater than that of gear teeth mesh out. Therefore, to analyze the impact with the minimum value of gear teeth mesh in, the initial mesh-in points need to be determined, and the meshing impact velocity and impact force of teeth meshing-out need to be calculated. The optimized meshing tooth-pair contact interface (CI) anti-impact numerical calculation mode is validated using the loaded teeth contact analysis method
Self-organization and evolution in dynamic friction systems
The dynamic features of the friction process of the contacting pairs affect their durability and functional suitability. There-fore, the problems of their dynamics and vibrational activity always attract the attention of researchers in the field of tribology. It is known that self-organization processes take place during friction, such as the formation of selective transfer phenom-ena during friction, formation of equilibrium roughness. But known studies do not take into account changes in the dynamic properties of the system in the process of its functioning. The primary sources of self-organization are energetic in nature, but the relationship of these phenomena with the dynamic properties of the system has not been explained, and their modeling has not yet been performed. The paper presents the results of experimental and mathematical modeling of evolutionary changes of friction system due to the power of irreversible transformations of energy input to friction zone, which characterizes the goal of research. In order to achieve the goal, the paper deals with the mathematical modeling of the processes of self-organization in a dynamic friction system in combination with the analysis of the equilibrium of the system, its stability, and the manifolds formed in the vicinity of the equilibrium. It is shown that the proposed mathematical models are integro-differential functionally coupled equations that describe self-organization. Examples are given of dynamic restructuring of the friction system, including bifurcations of the attracting sets of its deformation displacements along the trajectory of the friction forces work. The paper briefly presents the results of the experimental study of the vibration characteristics of the contacting pairs during the development of their wear by the example of two systems: steel-brass and steel-glycerin-brass. It is shown that in the system of friction, new properties always establish naturally due to the work of forces. These properties are determined by the evolutionary change of the parameters of the dynamic coupling and the attractive sets of deformation displacements. The study and experiments show that measurement of parameters available for estimation of some coordinates in the dynamic friction system allows one to solve the problem of non-decoupled dynamic monitoring of the state of friction units and also opens new ways of improvement of friction units
Creation and verification of spatial mathematical model of vibrating machine with two self-synchronizing unbalanced exciters
Vibration technological machines with self-synchronized unbalanced vibration exciters (vibrating conveyors, vibrating screens, vibrating crushers, etc.) are widely used in modern industry. Despite drive construction simplicity throughout exploitation of such machines a number of nonlinear dynamics effects can be observed. Most of such effects are related to machine drive and elastic suspension interaction and appear while passing through resonant frequencies. Nowadays the idea of resonant vibrating machines creation got a second breathe. The distinctive feature of such machines is the automated system for maintaining resonant mode of machine. Creation of such automated systems requires accurate mathematical models of vibrating machines that can reflect its most important features. The aim of this work is to create a spatial mathematical model and determine the dynamic system unknown parameters of a vibrating screen experimental sample with two self-synchronizing unbalanced vibration exciters that can create the working body spatial motion. The mathematical model motion equations are derived using the Lagrange equations of the second kind. Using the obtained experimental data (natural frequencies and logarithmic damping decrement), the mathematical model mass-geometric parameters and the damping parameters values were calculated. The investigation result is a verified mathematical model of a vibrating screen sample with two self-synchronizing unbalanced vibration exciters
Seismic performance analysis of self-centering segment piers with mortise-tenon shear connectors based on cyclic pseudo-static test
In the past decades, more and more precast piers have been used in actual engineering, which brings convenience in construction and standardization of production. However, precast piers still have some shortcomings, such as shear slip between segments and poor energy dissipation. Thus, a self-centering mortise-tenon segmental bridge pier was proposed in this paper. To research the seismic performance of the self-centering mortise-tenon segment piers, three scaled model piers with their scale ratio as 1:3 were designed and prefabricated, namely as a cast-in-place model pier (CP) and 2 self-centering mortise-tenon segment model piers (designated as MTSP1 and MTSP2) with the initial pretension of 1302 MPa and 1488 MPa, respectively. The cyclic pseudo-static tests of the three piers were carried out. The comparison analysis was made respecting to the test results including the damage form, hysteretic characteristics, skeleton curve, energy dissipation capacity, residual displacement and equivalent stiffness of the three specimens. It was shown that MTSP specimens had higher horizontal bearing capacity. While the yield load, ultimate load, displacement ductility coefficient and initial stiffness of MTSP1 and MTSP2 were higher than those of CP. The MTSP had better performance considering the above aspects. The mean value of the residual displacement of MTSP2 was lower than that of CP 21.14 % and 29. 72 % respectively, as the drift ratio reaching 5 %. The MTSP specimens had better self-centering capacity due to the increased pretension stress which reducing the residual displacement greatly. The energy dissipation reinforcements improved the energy dissipation capacity of the segmental assembled piers. Based on the ABAQUS model, the numerical simulation was carried out and compared with the experimental data. MTSP had great energy dissipation capacity and self-centering capacity. It was suggested that MTSP should be used to make up for the deficiency of segmental assembled pier and improve the seismic performance of segmental assembled pier
Effect of excitation frequency on nonlinear vibration of crack fault in multi-stage gear transmission system
In a multi-stage gear transmission system, the motion state of the system will change with the excitation frequency, and the frequency characteristics will also change accordingly. If this change is not taken into account, there is often a great deviation in identifying and judging system faults according to unified standards, especially when the system has such early undetectable fault as crack. In this paper, the dimensionless differential equations of motion of multistage gear transmission system are established. The stiffness model of gear tooth crack is established by potential energy method. The changes of the motion state of the system with the increase of excitation frequency are obtained by calculating the displacement bifurcation diagram of cracked gear tooth. The influences of crack fault on each motion state are studied by using time domain, frequency domain, phase diagram and Poincaré cross section, and the fault frequency characteristics are summarized. By comparing the theoretical and experimental data of the vibration response characteristics of the system, the motion state of the system can be effectively determined and the crack fault can be identified

In order to improve the ride comfort of the cab of construction machinery and reduce the harm of vibration to the driver, the lumped parameter model of passive hydraulic damping rubber mount (PHDRM) considering the nonlinearity of multi-inertial tracks is first established. Then the overall FE (finite element) fluid-solid coupling model of the vibration isolator is proposed by using ABAQUS combined simulation mode in this paper. Meanwhile, Combined with bidirectional strong coupling algorithm, the parameters of the rubber main spring and inertial track are identified respectively. Also, the dynamic characteristic experiments of the PHDRM samples are carried out. The experiment results show that the analytical solution and FE modeling method of the HDRM system are reliable and accurate under larger amplitude excitation. On the basis of this, the effects of the rubber main spring and inertial track of PHDRM on low frequency dynamic characteristics under larger amplitude excitation are respectively analyzed and discussed. It provides practical reference value for nonlinear modeling method research and dynaimc performance analysis of PHDRM with complex structure further
