Mechatronics capacity building in Tanzania
No full textThe paper deals with a capacity building project carried out by Politecnico di Milano and the three main technical universities of Tanzania aimed at stimulating high education in mechatronics and at giving professors the tools to design new mechatronics courses in the universities of the Country. This work is focused on the activities carried out at Mbeya University of Science and Technology (M.U.S.T.) where, within one week of intensive course, Tanzanian professors had the opportunity to develop a mechatronic system. The approach was aimed not just at teaching main subjects of a mechatronics course, but also at suggesting how these courses could involve university students on topics that will be a challenge for the emerging industry of the country

Low-frequency magnetostrictive inertial actuator
No full textThe present paper presents the design of an innovative low-frequency magnetostriuctive inertial actuator that is able to multiply by almost a factor of 10 the amplitude of striction-elongation amplitude of the magnetostrictive bar, thus leading to an increase in the generated force amplitude, and to obtain a working frequency from 30Hz up, i.e. well below the working frequencies of traditional magnetostrictive inertial actuators. Moreover, the design has been optimized through an analitical model and a finite element model taking into account all design parameters.
The optimised low-frequencymagnetostriuctive inertial actuator has then be produced and its frequency response compared to that of a traditional magnetostrictive actuator made up of the same components (except for the supporting structure)
