Belt System

Abstract This paper presents a method for analyzing the dynamic characteristics of driving systems consisting of multiple belts and pulleys. First, the algorithm which derives the linear equations of motion of arbitrary multi-coupled belt systems is shown. Secondly, by using the algorithm, the computer program which formulates the equations of motion and calculates the transient responses of the belt system is presented. The fundamental idea of the algorithm is as follows: Complicated belt systems consisting of multiple belts and pulleys are regarded as combinations of simple belt systems consisting of a single belt and some pulleys. Therefore, the equations of motion of the belt systems can be derived by the superposition of the equations of motion of the simple belt systems. By means of this method, the responses of arbitrary multi-coupled belt systems can be calculated. Finally, to verify the usefulness of this method, the simulation results are compared with the experimental results.

In this article, we investigate the dynamic analysis of vibration-driven systems moving based on frictional locomotion principles. Symmetrically actuating particles with longitudinal harmonic forces or with longitudinal vibration of the base does not lead to the net motion, unless the generated slip varies during back and forth motion. Harmonically varying the normal contact force and employing asymmetric friction coefficients are two approaches for obtaining frictional locomotion principles. In order to study the simultaneous effect of these required conditions of generating net displacement, a mathematical model is developed, and the resulting non-linear equations of motion are analytically solved. We have shown that the proposed model can be simply generalized to many other frictional, vibration-induced principles, such as the friction drive and the directional friction concepts. The obtained results are in good agreement with those achieved from numerical integration and experiments, reported in the literature. The presented theoretical findings can be effectively used for the design and control of this type of oscillators.

The paper analyses the dynamic behaviour of supporting structure of an overhead crane during the operation of a hoisting mechanism. The crane is expected to operate with a hook and to carry 50 kN of weight. The electric hoist consists of an asynchronous motor with a magnetic brake, a two‐level planet gear, a load drum and an upper block. Non‐linear equations of motion of a crane hoisting mechanism are derived. Real dynamic forces and their influence on the hoisting crane behaviour are obtained. Numerical results of the crane are derived considering two hoisting regimes during the operation of the hoisting.

The dynamic characteristics of a six bar hinge mechanism as used in home cabinets were investigated using the method of equation of motion. The derived equations of motion were numerically solved and the motion of the hinge mechanism was simulated. The influence of mass and width of the cabinet door on the dynamic characteristics of the hinge mechanism as well as the effect of the hinge number on the force applied on the handle were also investigated. The experimental and simulation results showed good agreement with an error of under 2%, which validated the simulation results. The proposed approach can be used by hinge manufacturers for the design and analysis of similar hinge mechanisms.

The linear equations of motion of a uniform flexible slewing link which were derived via Hamilton’s Extended Principle are considered. These equations account for the coupling between bending and rigid modes. Unconstrained and constrained mode expansions are investigated and a quantitative comparison is made between the frequency equations and associated mode shapes. A finite dimensional model is derived using the assumed modes method and the theoretical frequencies are verified with an experimental counterbalanced aluminum beam.

The heat transfer appropriate to low Reynolds number hot-wire anemometry is calculated from the full non-linear equations of motion and of heat transfer by an iterative method starting with the Oseen solution and its heat flux analogue. The second and third iterates yield close agreement with measured data.

Linear Equations Of Motion

A rotating Timoshenko shaft with a single transverse crack is considered. The crack opens and closes during motion and is represented by generalized forces and moments. The shaft has simply supported ends, and the six coupled, piecewise-linear equations of motion (including longitudinal, transverse, and torsional displacements) are integrated numerically after application of Galerkin’s method with two-term approximations for each of the six displacements. Time histories and frequency spectra are compared for shafts with no crack and with a crack for which the crack depth is one-fifth of the shaft diameter. Free vibrations and the responses to a single axial impulse and periodic axial impulses are analyzed. The last case appears to provide an effective means for detecting cracks in rotating shafts.

The steady rotational flow of an inviscid fluid in a two-dimensional channel toward a sink or a contraction is treated. The velocity distribution at upstream infinity is approximated by a linear combination of uniform flow, linear shear flow, and a cosine curve. The combinations were adjusted to simulate flows ranging from laminar to turbulent. Vorticity is assumed conserved on streamlines. The resulting linear equations of motion are solved exactly. The solution show the dependence of the corner eddy separation and reattachment on flow geometry and approach flow vorticity and velocity distribution typified by a shape factor.

Post Onset

A method for simulating the spontaneous, wind-excited vibrations of suspension bridges is described. The approach is based on a numerical model that treats the bridge and flowing air as elements of a single dynamic system; and all of the governing equations are integrated numerically, simultaneously, and interactively. It is shown that the present simulation predicts the same onset of flutter as the analysis of Fung. Unlike Fung’s analysis, the present analysis provides the solution in the time domain, is not restricted to periodic motions or linear equations of motion, and provides post-onset behavior as long as the effective angles of attack are not large enough to produce stall. As a consequence, the present analysis can be a very effective tool for the design of flutter-suppressing control systems. Because the equations are solved numerically, nonlinear supports do not present a problem. In the present work, it is shown how the nonlinear springs lead to limit-cycle responses.
