The Relationship

In this paper, a shear stiffness model for corrugated-core sandwich structures is proposed. The bonding area is discussed independently. The core is thought to be hinged on the skins with torsional stiffness. The analytical model was verified by FEM solution. Compared with the previous studies, the new model can predict the valley point of the shear stiffness at which the relationship between the shear stiffness and the angle of the core changes from negative correlation to positive correlation. The valley point increases when the core becomes stronger. For the structure with a angle of the core smaller than counterpart for the valley point, the existing analytical formulations may significantly underestimate the shear stiffness of the structure with strong skins. The results obtained by some previous models may be only 10 persent of that of the present model, which is supported by the FEM model.

Coupling Phenomena

An asymptotically exact methodology, based on geometrically nonlinear, three-dimensional elasticity, is presented for cross-sectional analysis of initially curved and twisted, nonhomogeneous, anisotropic beams. Through accounting for all possible deformation in the three-dimensional representation, the analysis correctly accounts for the complex elastic coupling phenomena in anisotropic beams associated with shear deformation. The analysis is subject only to the restrictions that the strain is small relative to unity and that the maximum dimension of the cross section is small relative to the wave length of the deformation and to the minimum radius of curvature and/or twist. The resulting cross-sectional elastic constants exhibit second-order dependence on the initial curvature and twist. As is well known, the associated geometrically-exact, one-dimensional equilibrium and kinematical equations also depend on initial twist and curvature. The corrections to the stiffness model derived herein are also necessary in general for proper representation of initially curved and twisted beams.

Initial Assembly

An improved stiffness model is proposed for bolted joints made of similar and dissimilar plates. A novel approach is used to obtain an expression for the effective area used for determining the joint stiffness. More accurate estimate of the joint stiffness provides a more reliable prediction of the joint behavior both during its initial assembly, as well as under subsequently applied tensile loads in service. The effect of the grip length-to-diameter ratio, joint sizes, underhead contact radii ratio, hole clearance, and plate material/thickness ratio are investigated. Experimental data are used for determining the envelope angle α in the proposed analytical model. Finite element modeling is used for evaluating the accuracy of the proposed stiffness model.

This article proposes two types of lockable spherical joints which can perform three different motion patters by locking or unlocking corresponding rotational axes. Based on the proposed lockable spherical joints, a general reconfigurable limb structure with two passive joints is designed with which the conceptual designs of two types of Exechon-like parallel kinematic machines are completed. To evaluate the stiffness of the proposed Exechon-like parallel kinematic machines, an expanded kinetostatic model is established by including the compliances of all joints and limb structures. The prediction accuracy of the expanded stiffness model is validated by numerical simulations. The comparative stiffness analyses prove that the Exe-Variant parallel kinematic machine claims competitive rigidity performance to the Exechon parallel kinematic machine. The present work can provide useful information for further investigations on structural enhancement, rigidity improvement, and dynamic analyses of other Exechon-like parallel kinematic machines.
