This paper deals with an isolation device by using friction force. An isolation device decreases response acceleration and external force. Therefore, earthquake damage is reduced. However, an isolation device has a demerit for large relative displacement. The purpose of this research is to decrease the relative displacement by using the friction force. Then, an analytical model in consideration of the friction force is proposed, and a simulation is analyzed with well-known earthquake waves. Consequently, it is thought that optimal friction force exists, and this force decreases both the response acceleration and the relative displacement. This is considered to change with the properties of earthquake waves. Then, it analyzed using the regular random wave. The result, the proportional relation was seen between relative displacement and the optimal coefficient of friction. Then, by changing a friction coefficient according to relative displacement, it is thought that both response acceleration and relative displacement can be reduced. However, it is difficult to change a friction coefficient. So, in this research, reduction of response acceleration and relative displacement is aimed by changing the angle of a friction surface and friction force. Furthermore, an angle is changed in the middle of a slope. It is thought that it becomes possible to reduce response acceleration and relative displacement further. An experimental device is made under the same conditions as the proposed analytical model. The experimental results are compared with the analytical results.

This paper deals with an isolation device by using friction force. An isolation device decreases response acceleration and external force. Therefore, earthquake damage is reduced. However, an isolation device has a demerit for large relative displacement. A low horizontal natural frequency decreases the response acceleration. Therefore, in this research, a soft spring is attached to the base of the structure. The purpose of this research is to decrease the relative displacement by using the friction force. Then, an analytical model in consideration of the friction force is proposed, and a simulation is analyzed with well-known earthquake waves. Consequently, as the friction force increases, the results show that the relative displacement decreases. However, it is found that the response acceleration increases. But it is thought that optimal friction force exists, and this force decreases both the response acceleration and the relative displacement. This is considered to change with the properties of earthquake waves. Therefore, it is thought that the response acceleration and the relative displacement are decreased by changing the friction force to the most suitable value for earthquakes. This isolation device is examined with simulation analysis. An experimental device is made under the same conditions as the proposed analytical model. The analytical results are compared with the experimental results, and the validity of an analytical program is examined.

This paper deals with research of new isolation device with reduction of horizontal relative displacement by using friction force and reduction of vertical response acceleration and relative displacement by using spring and friction force. The isolation device is using a friction surface. The friction surface is subjected to acts on the slope plate. The restoring-force of horizontal direction is given to the isolation device from elastic force of a compression spring attached to the base. The restoring-force always works in the direction of the center. Therefore, the frictional force and the restoring-force are both proportional to the displacement. The restoring-force of the vertical direction is given to the isolation device from compression springs and draft springs. Simulation analysis was performed under various conditions using this analysis model. Condition reducing both response acceleration and displacement effectively is calculated on various conditions using the analysis model. Furthermore, an experiment is conducted using the experimental device. The experiment is conducted by an imagination wave. Analysis is also conducted on the same conditions. The results of the experiment are compared with the results of the analysis. The performance of the isolation device is examined. The validity of an analysis model is examined. As a result of conducting the analysis and an experiment with this model, it was shown that response acceleration and relative displacement can be reduced successfully. The validity of an analysis model is shown. Next, it analyzes by actual seismic waves. The performance of isolation equipment in actual seismic waves is examined and shown.

The Coefficient Of Friction

In this paper presents friction coefficient determination method between scraped object's material and fence material, determined directly on the conveyor belt, which then is introduced in the FEM program (LSDyna) for simulation of the scraping process in the automated sorting plant. In this case, the necessity of using an additional laboratory stand to determine the coefficient of friction is omitted. Due to the existing balance of friction forces, the model of the phenomenon can be treated as static, therefore the measurement is very simple and does not depend on time.

The effect of the shape/size and distribution of microgeometries of textures on improving the tribo-performance of crankpin bearing is proposed. Based on a combined model of the slider-crank mechanism dynamic and hydrodynamic lubrication, the distribution density, area density, and shape of spherical textures, square-cylindrical textures, wedge-shaped textures, and a hybrid between spherical texture and square-cylindrical texture on the crankpin bearing's tribo-performance are investigated under different operating conditions of the engine. The tribological characteristic of the crankpin bearing is then evaluated via the indexes of the oil film pressure p, asperity contact force, friction force, and friction coefficient of the crankpin bearing. The research results show that the distribution density with n = 12 and m = 6, and area density with α = 30% of various microtextures have an obvious effect on ameliorating the crankpin bearings tribo-performance. Concurrently, at the mixed lubrication region, the shape of the square-cylindrical texture on improving the tribo-performance is better than the other shapes of the spherical texture, wedge-shaped texture, and spherical and square-cylindrical texture. Particularly, all the average values of the asperity contact force, friction force, and friction coefficient with a square-cylindrical texture are significantly reduced by 14.6%, 19.5%, and 34.5%, respectively, in comparison without microtextures. Therefore, the microtextures of the spherical texture applied on the bearing surface can contribute to enhance the durability and decrease the friction power loss of the engine.

Purpose Fabric-object friction force is a fundamental factor in cloth simulation. A large number of parameters influence the frictional properties of fabrics such as fabric structure, yarn structure, and inherent properties of component fibers. The purpose of this paper is to propose a novel technique for modeling fabric-object friction force in knitted fabric simulation based on the mass spring model. Design/methodology/approach In this technique, unlike other studies, distribution of friction coefficient over the fabric surface is not uniform and depends on the fabric structure. The main reason for considering non-uniform distribution is that in various segments of fabric, contact percent of fabric-object is different. Findings The proposed technique and common methods based on friction coefficient uniform distribution are used to simulate the frictional behavior of knitted fabrics. The results show that simulation error values for proposed technique and common methods are 2.7 and 9.4 percent as compared with the experimental result, respectively. Originality/value In the existing methods of the friction force modeling, the friction coefficient of fabric is assumed uniform. But this assumption is not correct because fabric does not have an isotropic structure. Thus in this study, the friction coefficient distribution is considered based on fabric structure to achieve more of realistic simulations.

In order to enhance grinding efficiency of the magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) method, we usually use the sinter method or the cementation method to mix the magnetic particles and abrasive particles together. However, the cost is high, and the variety is incomplete. Therefore, with the ferromagnetism to iron particles, the alumina particles and the lipin three kind of material simple mixture participate in the magnetic abrasive finishing which directly polishes, already obtained the good effect through the experiment. This paper analyses and explains the characteristic of the friction coefficient and the friction force on magnetic abrasive finishing according as account and experiment data.

PurposeTo address the lack of data in this field and determine the relationship between the coefficient of friction and the interference between locomotive wheels and axles, this study evaluates the theoretical relationship between the coefficient of friction and the interference under elastic deformation.Design/methodology/approachWhen using numerical analyses to study the mechanical state of the contacting components of the wheels and axle, the interference between the axle parts and the coefficient of friction between the axle parts are two important influencing factors. Currently, as the range of the coefficient of friction between the wheel and axle in interference remains unknown, it is generally considered that the coefficient of friction is only related to the materials of the friction pair; the relationship between the interference and the coefficient of friction is often neglected.FindingsA total of 520 press-fitting experiments were conducted for 130 sets of wheels and axles of the HXD2 locomotive with 4 types of interferences, in order to obtain the relationship between the coefficient of friction between the locomotive wheel and axle and the amount of interference. These results are expected to serve as a reference for selecting the coefficient of friction when designing axle structures with the rolling stock, research on the press-fitting process and evaluations of the fatigue life.Originality/valueThe study provides a basis for the selection of friction coefficient and interference amount in the design of locomotive wheels and axles.
