Speed Fluctuations

In this study, a dynamic model of a single-cylinder four-stroke diesel engine has been created, and the crankshaft speed fluctuations have been simulated and validated. The dynamic model of the engine consists of the motion equations of the piston, conrod, and crankshaft. Conrod motion was modeled by two translational and one angular motion equations, by considering the kinetic energy resulted from the mass moment of inertia and conrod mass. Motion equations involve in-cylinder gas pressure forces, hydrodynamic and dry friction, mass inertia moments of moving parts, starter moment, and external load moment. The In-cylinder pressure profile used in the model was obtained experimentally to increase the accuracy of the model. Pressure profiles were expressed mathematically using the Fourier series. The motion equations were solved by using the Taylor series method. The solution of the mathematical model was performed by coding in the MATLAB interface. Cyclic speed fluctuations obtained from the model were compared with experimental results and found compitable. A validated model was used to analyze the effects of in-cylinder pressure, mass moment of inertia of crankshaft and connecting rod, friction, and piston mass. In experiments for 1500, 1800, 2400, and 2700 rpm engine speeds, crankshaft speed fluctuations were observed as 12.84%, 8.04%, 5.02%, and 4.44%, respectively. In simulations performed for the same speeds, crankshaft speed fluctuations were calculated as 10.45%, 7.56%, 4.49%, and 3.65%. Besides, it was observed that the speed fluctuations decreased as the average crankshaft speed value increased. In the simulation for 157.07, 188.49, 219.91, 251.32, and 282.74 rad/s crankshaft speeds, crankshaft speed fluctuations occurred at rates of 10.45%, 7.56%, 5.84%, 4.49%, and 3.65%, respectively. The effective engine power was achieved as 5.25 kW at an average crankshaft angular speed of 219.91 rad/s. The power of friction loss in the engine was determined as 0.68 kW.

ABSTRAK Mesin terdiri dari sekumpulan elemen mesin yang diam dan bergerak. Elemen mesin yang bergerak dengan gerakan berputar disebut benda putar. Pada beberapa kasus seringkali diinginkan pengurangan massa dari benda putar tersebut untuk alasan ekonomis, biasanya untuk elemen mesin yag diproduksi massal. Namun pengurangan massa berakibat pada pengurangan momen inersia massa benda putar bersangkutan. Jika tuntutan perancangan tidak mempermasalahkan perubahan tersebut, maka pengurangan massa tidak menjadi masalah. Namun jika momen inersia massa tidak boleh terlalu rendah, maka harus dicari kompromi dimana pengurangan massa sebesar-besarnya namun penurunan momen inersia massa sekecil-kecilnya. Pada penelitian ini dilakukan studi kasus terhadap benda putar berjari- jari 10 cm jari-jari dalam hub 2 cm dan jari-jari luar hub 4 cm. Jumlah jari-jari ada 4 dengan lebar 1 cm dan tebal benda putar 0,5 cm. Variasi pengurangan massa dilakukan dengan memvariasikan jari-jari- dalam rim. Untuk tiap variasi, dilakukan perhitungan untuk mendapatkan jumlah massa yang dapat dikurangi dan momen inersia massa dari benda putar. Ternyata pada nilai jari-jari dalam tertentu, dapat diperoleh nilai kompromi dari permasalahan diatas. Kata kunci: benda putar, penghematan bahan, momen inersia massa.  ABSTRACT Machine consists of a set of machine elements that still and moving. Machine elements that move in a circular motion called rotary object. In some cases it is often desirable reduction in the mass of the rotating object for economic reasons, usually for a mass production of machine elements. But the mass reduction results in a reduction in moment of inertia of the mass. If the demands of the design allow this decrease of moment of inertia, mass reduction is not a problem. But if the moment of inertia of the masses should not be too low, it must find a compromise in which a mass reduction profusely but the decrease in the mass moment of inertia of the smallest. In this research conducted a case study of rotating element radius of 10 cm, radius of the hub 2 cm and outer radius hub 4 cm. The number of spoke are 4 with a width of 1 cm and uniform thickness 0.5 cm all over rotating element. Variations mass reduction is done by varying the inner radius of the rim. For each variation, calculation is performed to obtain the amount of mass that can be reduced and the mass moment of inertia of the rotating object. It turned out that in the certain value of inner radius of the rim in particular, can compromise the values obtained from the above problem. Keywords: rotating element, reducing material, mass moment of inertia.

Replacing the connecting rod with a lumped two-mass system causes an error, which influences the inertia rolling moment, the thrust force between the piston and the cylinder liner, and the loading on the main bearings. Dimensionless relationships have been found that relate the inertia error due to the connecting rod simplification (the inertia error) to the errors of the forces and moments that are created by it. Additionally, the results of a statistical study of 19 SI connecting rods indicate that the mass moment of inertia of the two mass system is −2.65% to 22% higher than that the experimentally measured moment of inertia of the connecting rod, with an average error value of 9.65%.

Recent work has quantified the geometric parameters of individual rat vibrissae (whiskers) and developed equations that describe how these parameters vary as a function of row and column position across the array. This characterization included a detailed quantification of whisker base diameter and arc length as well as the geometry of the whisker medulla. The present study now uses these equations for whisker geometry to quantify several properties of the whisker that govern its mechanical behavior. We first show that the average density of a whisker is lower in its proximal region than in its distal region. This density variation appears to be largely attributable to the presence of the whisker cuticle rather than the medulla. The density variation has very little effect on the center of mass of the whisker. We next show that the presence of the medulla decreases the deflection of the whisker under its own weight and also decreases its mass moment of inertia while sacrificing <1% stiffness at the whisker base compared with a solid whisker. Finally, we quantify two dimensionless parameters across the array. First, the deflection-to-length ratio decreases from caudal to rostral: caudal whiskers are longer but deflect more under their own weight. Second, the nondimensionalized radius of gyration is approximately constant across the array, which may simplify control of whisking by the intrinsic muscles. We anticipate that future work will exploit the mechanical properties computed in the present study to improve simulations of the mechanosensory signals associated with vibrissotactile exploratory behavior. NEW & NOTEWORTHY The mechanical signals transmitted by a whisker depend critically on its geometry. We used measurements of whisker geometry and mass to quantify the center of mass, mass moment of inertia, radius of gyration, and deflection under gravity of the whisker. We describe how variations in these quantities across the array could enhance sensing behaviors while reducing energy costs and simplifying whisking control. Most importantly, we provide derivations for these quantities for use in future simulation work.

For stability and impact reaction forces assessment of a quadruped robot during walking, a dynamic analysis is considered. For this purpose, a variant of a quadruped robot based on Jansen mechanism is presented. For interpreting the influence of the reaction forces from the ground during walking, the analysis was conducted with help of ADAMS software using a 3D model of the robot. Material specifications, forces and moments acting in the robot structure were considered. Graphical results obtained regarding the ground reaction forces are displayed. Also a reduced mass moment of inertia at the crankshaft is taken into consideration based on Lagrange motion equation and generalized coordinates.

BACKGROUND: Mass, moment of inertia, and amplitude of neck motion were altered during a reciprocal scanning task to investigate how night vision goggles (NVGs) use mechanistically is associated with neck trouble among rotary-wing aircrew.METHODS: There were 30 subjects measured while scanning between targets at 2 amplitudes (near and far) and under 4 head supported mass conditions (combinations of helmet, NVGs, and counterweights). Electromyography (EMG) was measured bilaterally from the sternocleidomastoid and upper neck extensors. Kinematics were measured from the trunk and head.RESULTS: Scanning between the far amplitude targets required higher peak angular accelerations (7% increase) and neck EMG (between 1.24.5% increase), lower muscle cocontraction ratios (6.7% decrease), and fewer gaps in EMG (up to a 59% decrease) relative to the near targets. Increasing the mass of the helmet had modest effects on neck EMG, while increasing the moment of inertia did not.DISCUSSION: Target amplitude, not head supported mass configuration, had a greater effect on exposure metrics. Use of NVGs restricts field-of-view, requiring an increased amplitude of neck movement. This may play an important role in understanding links between neck trouble and NVG use.Healey LA, Derouin AJ, Callaghan JP, Cronin DS, Fischer SL.
