Industrial Needs

Substructures coupling is still an important tool in several applications of modal analysis, especially structural modification and structures assembling. The subject is particularly relevant in virtual prototyping of complex systems and responds to actual industrial needs. This paper analyzes the possibility of assembling together different substructures' models. The important role of rotational DoFs is highlighted, underlying the difficulty of assembling theoretical and experimental models, for which, usually, the rotational DoFs are not available. Expansion techniques can be used to provide this information as well as appropriate modelling of joints. With this information FRF models, modal models and FE models can be appropriately combined together and solutions for several cases of practical interest are presented. The analyzed procedures are tested on purpose-built benchmarks, showing limits and capabilities of each of them.

Abstract With loads on prefabricated bridges becoming more and more heavier, their dynamic behaviors should be paid more attention to. A virtual prototyping model with the object-oriented technology and the mode synthesis method is presented in MATLAB to analyze dynamic behaviors of prefabricated bridges. Using structural characteristics of the bridges properly, substructures can be looked on as objects which can be encapsulated with the mode synthesis method. The compatibility conditions on interfaces, the Lagrange’s equation and Ritz’s variational principle play the role of messages transmitting among objects. Simulation results indicate that the present model can easily study dynamic behaviors of bridges in the same model.

This paper addresses issues related to the assessment of product designs that today successfully uses virtual prototyping methods and techniques. Design assessment is usually performed by engineers and designers. Current trend is involving customers in the products design assessment in order to check the level of acceptability and satisfaction before proceeding with the production. In this view, methods for design review may be used in participatory design sessions where customers can intervene for customizing products. The paper presents a tool that has been originally developed for designers for the validation and modification of aesthetic properties of digital shapes, and that has also been used by customers, in participatory design sessions, for customizing their products.

High Dynamics

This paper reports about the design and modeling process of high performance servo-actuated mechanisms for automatic machines. Besides being a delicate and time consuming process, coupled simulations based on virtual prototyping finally offer the chance to integrate engineering methods proper of control system engineering and mechanical design. In particular, the main target of this work is to investigate how different virtual prototyping approaches, each having increasing level of detail, can contribute to the appropriate prediction of the expected machine performance. These results are then compared with experimental data obtained on a real servomechanism prototype. The comparison quantitatively demonstrate the improvement on torque prediction and position error reduction when detailed models of the controller and the electric motor dynamics are coupled with the mechanical system model.

Virtual Prototypes

The study of experience in the interaction with goods, both physical and virtual, is consistently affected by the role of the context in which this interaction occurs. The paper analyses the global problem starting from three independent variables: product, people and context, and focuses on the analysis of single couples of independent variables: goods-person, goods-context and person-context. From this analysis it is derived a general framework oriented to the experimenting and validation of the use of Virtual Prototyping to optimize the perceived value of products To-Be.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.
