Das Floating-Roller-Ball (FRB)-Lager ist ein Konzept für Radiallager als Loslager für Hochgeschwindigkeits-Motorspindeln, das die Vorteile von Zylinderrollenlagern und angestellten Mehrpunktlagern in einer neuen Wälzkörpergeometrie kombiniert. Zur Auslegung des ersten Prototyps wurde mithilfe eines Berechnungstools das theoretische Betriebsverhalten untersucht. Die Berechnungsergebnisse liefern Randbedingungen als Grundlage zur experimentellen Untersuchung des Lagerkonzepts.   Floating roller ball bearings provide a new floating bearing system for high-speed motor spindles, combining the advantages of both cylindrical roller bearings and elastically mounted multi-contact point bearings in a new roller geometry. To design the first prototype, the operational behavior of the bearing system was analyzed theoretically by a new calculation tool. The results provide the basis for the experimental investigation of the bearing concept.

A new kind of hydraulic expansion device for bimetallic CRA-lined pipe has been researched and developed, as well as its operational principal and technical characteristic were introduced. The stress and strain in the liner and outer pipe during the hydroforming process have been analyzed theoretically and the mechanism of hydraulic expansion method is studied, and the final forming pressure formula has been obtained. The theoretical analysis is verified by experimental investigation, the results indicate that the new technology is feasible and can be applied in industrial production.

Structural control systems, including passive, semi-active and active damping systems, are used to increase structural resilience to multi-hazard excitations. While semi-active and active damping systems have been investigated for the mitigation of multi-hazard excitations, their requirement for real-time controllers and power availability limit their usefulness. This work proposes the use of a newly developed passive variable friction device for the mitigation of multi-hazard events. This passive variable friction device, when installed in a structure, is capable of mitigating different hazards from wind and ground motions. In wind events, the device ensures serviceability, while during earthquake events, the device reduces the building’s inter-story drift to maintain strength-based motion requirements. Results show that the passive variable friction device performs better than a traditional friction damper during a seismic event while not compromising any performance during wind events.
