This problem is a generalization of the classical problem of the stability of a spinning rigid body. We obtain the stability chart by using: (i) the computer algebra system MACSYMA in conjunction with a perturbation method, and (ii) numerical integration based on Floquet theory. We show that the form of the stability chart is different for each of the three cases in which the spin axis is the minimum, maximum, or middle principal moment of inertia axis. In particular, a rotation with arbitrarily small angular velocity about the maximum moment of inertia axis can be made unstable by appropriately choosing the model parameters. In contrast, a rotation about the minimum moment of inertia axis is always stable for a sufficiently small angular velocity. The MACSYMA program, which we used to obtain the transition curves, is included in the Appendix.

A new approach to optimal control of vehicle suspension systems, incorporating actuator time delay, is presented. The inclusion of time delay provides a more realistic model for the actuators, and the problem is viewed from a different perspective rather than the conventional optimal control techniques. The objective here is to select a set of feedback gains such that the maximum vertical acceleration of the sprung mass is minimized, over a wide band frequency range and when subjected to certain constraints. The constraints are dictated by the vehicle stability characteristics and the physical bounds placed on the feedback gains. Utilizing a Simple Quarter Car model, the constrained optimization is then carried out in the frequency domain with the road irregularities described as random processes. Due to the presence of the actuator time delay, the characteristic equation is found to be transcendental rather than algebraic, which makes the stability analysis relatively complex. A new scheme for the stability chart strategy with fixed time delay is introduced in order to address the stability issue. The stability characteristics are also verified utilizing other conventional methods such as the Michailov technique. Results demonstrate that the suspension system, when considering the effect of the actuator time delay, exhibits a completely different behavior.

Abstract The natural modes of free vibrations of a symmetrical two-degree-of-freedom system are analyzed theoretically and experimentally. This system has two natural modes, one in-phase and the other out-of-phase. In contradistinction to the comparable single-degree-of-freedom system where the free vibrations are always orbitally stable, the natural modes of the symmetrical two-degree-of-freedom system are frequently unstable. The stability properties depend on two parameters and are easily deduced from a stability chart. For sufficiently small amplitudes both modes are, in general, stable. When the coupling spring is linear, both modes are always stable at all amplitudes. For other conditions, either mode may become unstable at certain amplitudes. In particular, if there is a single value of frequency and amplitude at which the system can vibrate in either mode, the out-of-phase mode experiences a change of stability. The experimental investigation has generally confirmed the theoretical predictions.

In this paper, vibration problems of a simply-supported elastic beam subjected to randomly spaced moving loads with a uniform speed are treated under the assumption that the input load sequence is a Poisson process. In the case in which the inertial effect of moving loads is taken into account, the stability problem relating to the speed and the mass of loads is dealt with, considering the inertia force, the centrifugal force, and the Coriolis force of the moving loads. As an analytical result a stability chart of the mean-squared deflection was obtained for the moving speed and the moving masses.

In milling processes, the intermittent cutting force may lead to harmful vibrations. These vibrations are classified into two groups. One of them is the self excited vibration which comes from the loss of stability due to the regeneration effect and these vibrations lead to unacceptable chatter marks. The other one is the forced vibration which can lead to high Surface Location Error (SLE) in case of resonant spindle speeds. In this paper, the dynamics of the beam-type workpiece is considered which is modelled by means of Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Both the forced vibration and the stability properties are predicted along the tool path. The surface properties are computed on the stable regions of the stability chart which presents the chatter-free (stable) parameter domain as a function of the spindle speed and the tool path. The theoretical results are compared to the measured SLE and surface roughness.

Abstract The stability graph method of stope design is one of the most widely used methods of stability assessments of stopes in underground polymetallic mines. The primary objective of this work is to introduce a new stability chart, which includes all relevant case histories, and to exclude parameters with uncertainties in the determination of stability number. The modified stability number was used to achieve this goal, and the Extended Mathews database was recalculated and compared with the new stability graph. In this study, a new refined Consolidated stability graph was developed by excluding the entry mining methods data from the Extended graph data, and only the non-entry methods data was used. The applicability of the proposed Consolidated stability chart was demonstrated by an open stope example. The stability for each stope surface was evaluated by a probabilistic approach employing a logistic regression model and the developed Consolidated stability chart. Comparing the stability analysis results with that of other published works of the same example shows that the determined Consolidated chart, in which the entry-method data is excluded, produces a more conservative and safer design. In conclusion, the size and quality of the dataset dictate the reliability of this approach.

Recent works study the ground resonance in helicopters under the aging effects. Indeed, the blades lead-lag stiffness may vary randomly with time and be different from each other (i.e.: anisotropic rotor). The influence of stiffness dissimilarities between blades on the stability of the ground resonance phenomenon is determined through numerical investigations on the periodical equations of motion, treated by using Floquet’s theory. Stability chart highlights the appearance of new instability zones as function of the perturbation introduced on the lead-lag stiffness of one blade. In order to validate the theoretical results, a new experimental setup is designed and developed. The ground resonance instabilities are investigated for different types of rotor configurations (i.e.: isotropic and anisotropic rotors) and the boundaries of stability are determined. A good correlation between both theoretical and experimental results is obtained and the new instability zones, found in asymmetric rotors, are verified experimentally. The temporal responses of the measured signals highlight the exponential divergence at the instability regions.

In this paper, the chatter phenomenon is investigated through a single degree of freedom model of the milling process. In this regard, the non-linear equation of motion obtained from modeling of the milling process, which is a time-periodic delay differential equation, is simulated, and by changing the parameters: spindle speed and depth of cut, and assuming constant quantities for other parameters of the system the stable and instable points for the system are gained according to these two parameters by numerical method. In the end, the stability chart for this system is plotted and the approximate boundaries between the stability and instability regions are obtained numerically.

The governing equations for the dynamical system of a self-acting gas-lubricated journal bearing are formulated. An approximate solution for the equilibrium position of the journal center is obtained by use of Galerkin’s method. The equilibrium solution shows close agreement with the exact numerical computer solution obtained by Elrod. The stability of the equilibrium solution is investigated by solving the linearized equations on an analog computer. The solution of the set of linearized equations shows that there exists a threshold speed of instability for each equilibrium position. The value of this threshold speed is presented in a stability chart. In addition, approximate particular solutions for the nonlinear dynamical equations are obtained by use of the analog computer. The results are shown as trajectories of the journal center when it is displaced arbitrarily from the equilibrium position.
