Adhesive Forces

In space environment, there is severe adhesive effect, and the impact contact process shows different phenomenon due to the adhesive forces. In this paper, a new impact dynamics model of a clearance joint is developed considering the adhesive effects. The Hertz contact model, L-J potential and Dugdale model are combined, and an adhesive force term is included in the original hybrid contact force model. Taking a clearance joint as an example, the theory of adhesive forces during the impact contact process is given, and the influence of the adhesive forces is investigated. Negative forces are discovered at the beginning of the contact, and the contact forces of the modified model are higher than the hybrid model. Besides, the indentation depth is also higher than the hybrid model. The energy conservation principle is employed to explain the phenomena, and the contact forces will be underestimated if the adhesive effects are ignored. This work could be contributed to estimating the contact forces and friction forces more reasonablely in the space environment.

This work deals with a methodology to assess the influence of the spherical clearance joints in spatial multibody systems. The methodology is based on the Cartesian coordinates, being the dynamics of the joint elements modeled as impacting bodies and controlled by contact forces. The impacts and contacts are described by a continuous contact force model that accounts for geometric and mechanical characteristics of the contacting surfaces. The contact force is evaluated as function of the elastic pseudo-penetration between the impacting bodies, coupled with a nonlinear viscous-elastic factor representing the energy dissipation during the impact process. A spatial four bar mechanism is used as an illustrative example and some numerical results are presented, being the efficiency of the developed methodology discussed in the process of their presentation. The results obtained show that the inclusion of clearance joints in the modelization of spatial multibody systems significantly influences the prediction of components’ position and drastically increases the peaks in acceleration and reaction moments at the joints. Moreover, the system’s response clearly tends to be nonperiodic when a clearance joint is included in the simulation.

Moving Platform

Effects of flexible body and clearance spherical joint on the dynamic performance of 4-SPS/CU parallel mechanism are analyzed. The flexible moving platform is treated as thin plate based on absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). In order to formulate the parallel mechanism's constraint equations between the flexible body and the rigid body, the tangent frame is introduced to define the joint coordinate. One of the spherical joints between moving platform and kinematic chains is introduced into clearance. The normal and tangential contact forces are calculated based on Flores contact force model and modified Coulomb friction model. The dynamics model of parallel mechanism with clearance spherical joint and flexible moving platform is formulated based on equation of motion. Simulations show that the dynamic performance of parallel mechanism is not sensitive to the flexible body because of the inherent property of moving platform; however, when the clearance spherical joint is considered into the parallel mechanism with flexible body, the flexible moving platform exhibits cushioning effect to absorb the energy caused by clearance joint.

Effects of wear and member flexibility on the dynamic performance of a planar five-bar mechanism with joint-clearance are investigated. The equation of motion of the mechanism is derived based on the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). In order to enhance the accuracy of the contact force, the slope of the load–displacement curve of the cylindrical joint with clearance is used. The contact deformation couples the joint wear to the contact state. The contact force model of Flores and coworkers is improved, by the introduction of the stiffness coefficient. The wear depth is predicted by using the Archard's wear model. Simulations show that the multiclearance joints can generate stronger contact forces relative to single clearance joint case. This leads to more severe wear in the joint. However, the mechanism with multiple flexible links can absorb more of the energy arising from the clearance joint, and this improves the wear phenomenon.

This work describes the influence of the clearance size and the coefficient of friction on the dynamic response of a revolute clearance joint in multibody mechanical systems. When there is a clearance in a revolute joint, impacts between the journal and the bearing can occur, and consequently, local deformations take place. The impact is internal and the response of the system is performed using a continuous contact force model. The friction effect due to the contact between joint elements is also modeled. The clearance size and friction effects are analyzed separately. Through the use of Poincare´ maps both periodic and chaotic responses of the system are observed. The results predict the existence of the periodic or regular motion at certain clearance sizes and friction coefficients and chaotic or nonlinear in other cases. A detailed discussion of the results relative to a planar slider-crank mechanism with a revolute clearance joint is presented.

Abstract Reducing the severity of an impact to a structure or a multibody system is a significant aspect of engineering design. This requires the knowledge of variations of the resulting contact forces and also how these contact forces can be reduced. This paper presents an optimization methodology for the selection of proper parameters in the contact/impact force models so as to minimize the maximum value of the contact force. A two-particle model of an impact between two solids is considered, and then generalized to the impact analysis between two bodies of a multibody system. The concept of effective mass is presented in order to compensate for the effect of joint forces or impulses. The system is reduced to a single degree-of-freedom mass-spring-damper vibro-impact system. A single differential equation of motion in the direction of relative indentation of local contact surfaces is derived. Different contact force models of hysteresis form including linear and nonlinear models are described. An optimization problem is then formulated and solved by using the method of modified feasible direction for constrained minimization. A numerical integrator is used at every design iteration to obtain the system dynamic response for a given set of design variables. The objective function is to minimize the peak acceleration of the system equivalent mass resulting from the contact force. Comparison of the system with optimal parameters and non-optimal one shows that the peak contact force is greatly reduced for the optimal one. Since these parameters reflect the material properties (stiffness and damping) of the impacting bodies or surfaces, suitable materials may then be selected based upon the information provided by this optimization procedure. It is observed that the materials, which have good crashworthiness properties should posses capability of dissipating impact energy both in the forms of permanent indentation and internal damping friction. Based upon the analysis of the impact responses, mechanism of energy dissipation, and the typical force-indentation diagram for the high energy absorption materials obtained from experiments, a new contact force model is proposed which could precisely describe the impact response of high energy-absorption materials.

An investigation on the dynamic modeling and analysis of spatial mechanisms with spherical clearance joints including friction is presented. For this purpose, the ball and the socket, which compose a spherical joint, are modeled as two individual colliding components. The normal contact-impact forces that develop at the spherical clearance joint are determined by using a continuous force model. A continuous analysis approach is used here with a Hertzian-based contact force model, which includes a dissipative term representing the energy dissipation during the contact process. The pseudopenetration that occurs between the potential contact points of the ball and the socket surface, as well as the indentation rate play a crucial role in the evaluation of the normal contact forces. In addition, several different friction force models based on the Coulomb's law are revisited in this work. The friction models utilized here can accommodate the various friction regimens and phenomena that take place at the contact interface between the ball and the socket. Both the normal and tangential contact forces are evaluated and included into the systems' dynamics equation of motion, developed under the framework of multibody systems formulations. A spatial four-bar mechanism, which includes a spherical joint with clearance, is used as an application example to examine and quantify the effects of various friction force models, clearance sizes, and the friction coefficients.

The Impact

The vibration and impact dynamics of a periodically forced loosely supported beam are analyzed. The wear work rates at impact points are evaluated. The considered beam is clamped at one end, and constrained against unilateral contact at contact sites, with or without friction, near the other end. In this work, the structure is modeled by a Bernoulli-type beam supported by springs using finite element method. Our model calculations are compared with measurements of contact forces and displacements made on a loosely supported rod that was subjected to harmonic loading. Furthermore, the dynamics of vibro-impacts are characterized by evaluating the impact velocity as a function of harmonic excitation frequency for two idealizations of the aforementioned structure.

This paper focuses on the dynamic responses of a planar mechanism with multiple clearance joints. The effect of the impact between the journal and the bearing in the clearance joint is described using an improved impact force model, and a typical four-bar linkage mechanism with multiple clearance joints is presented as an example. Two conditions are considered in this research, one is the single clearance joint with different position, and the other is multiple clearance joints. From a large number of numerical results, some important conclusions are obtained as follows: (1) with the influence of the clearance joint, the dynamic output of system has obvious vibration in comparison to the ideal value. (2) The position of the clearance joint has a clear effect on the response of system; the larger the distance of the clearance joint from the drive motor, the smaller its influence on the output of the system. (3) With the increase in the clearance joint number, the dynamic stability of the multibody system is decreased gradually, and the dynamic characteristic of the system also appears as obvious nonlinear phenomenon. (4) The coupling phenomenon appears when multiple clearance joints in the multibody system are considered, which should be examined seriously during the process of design and numerical analysis.
