With the increasingly prominent energy issues, regenerative shock absorber has attracted intensive attention in last two decades for the development of structure design. However, the researchers sometimes concentrate on conceptual designs without considering optimal parameter refinements. This paper proposes a regenerative shock absorber called the “hydraulic electric regenerative shock absorber (HERSA)” which includes an analytical regeneration performance parameters optimisation approach to promote the regeneration efficiency and regenerated power. The developed HERSA model is able to convert oscillatory motion into unidirectional rotary motion through the alteration of hydraulic flow while recovering power by a generator. The proposed model is also capable of obtaining the optimal parameters at certain condition, as well as providing the flexibility of different component combinations to match specific system need. The results demonstrate that the proposed model can effectively decide the optimal parameters in the system, and also the recoverable power can achieve average power of 331 W at 1 Hz-25 mm sinusoidal excitation in the system, which is approximately 65% efficiency. This study can be further used to guide prototype design in future study.

The current paper provides some on-field measurements regarding the quantification of the dissipated power during the damping process of a traditional viscous shock absorber. In this regard, the HAVAL H8 SUV was driven for several trips on the Nanhu campus arena considering a velocity range of 20–50 km/h. Furthermore, two species of campus road sections were selected during the fabricated tests; straight road section with and without a speed bump. The acceleration signals of the rear-right suspension system (body and wheel) were acquired as the average power dissipation trend could be calculated from the relative suspension velocity. The findings of this investigation indicate that the average dissipated power of a traditional shock absorber can be in a range of 10–90 W for a speed range of 20–50 km/h driving on a campus road section free of speed bumps. Whilst, for another road segment with one speed bump, the shock absorber dissipated a kinetic energy between 40–140 W for a velocity range of 20–50 km/h. Suggesting that an average overall dissipated power of 160–560 W is available by means of the traditional shock absorbers. The results are of strategic interest for the researchers and vehicle manufacturers for further considerations in terms of regenerative suspension systems where a part of this energy could be harvested instead of being wholly dissipated.

This research is a development of previous research entitled "Designing Regenerative Shock Absorber as a Vibration Energy Harvesting Tool on Vehicles" in the PUPT scheme funded by PNBP UNP 2017. In this study optimization of design oriented to energy generation was carried out while also paying attention to aspects driving comfort that might change due to the installation of a harvesting energy mechanism. One aspect of the change occurred in the type of magnet used, namely a ring type magnet with a type of neodymium material.From the test results obtained by changing the value of the efficiency of the shock absorber after the ERSA mechanism is installed by 2%, this condition also has an impact on the dissimilarity of the attenuation value obtained by 2% for the front-rear (left) and (right) wheels. In terms of generation voltage obtained the maximum generation voltage obtained is 25,600 mV. Based on the data obtained, it needs further development ERSA, especially in the aspect of the electromagnetic mechanism to optimize the generation of electrical energy.

Abstract The main drawback in the performance of the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system is the higher Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the OFDM signals at the transmitter side. Companding is a well-known technique useful for reducing PAPR in the OFDM signal. This paper proposes a new nonlinear companding scheme that transforms the magnitude of Rayleigh distributed OFDM signal of specific degree into trapezoidal distribution. Additional design parameter is used in the proposed companding scheme to make the companding function more flexible. In the designed OFDM system the companding function has more degree of freedom which improves the PAPR and bit error rate (BER) parameters of the designed system. It has been demonstrated that the designed companding scheme provides more flexibility to accomplish an optimum trade-off between the performance parameters PAPR and BER of the designed OFDM system.

As general mechanic designing methods take long design cycle and consume many resources, though it could find a good design, it could not get the optimal one.Optimization design is the fruit of the combination of optimization mathematical method and modern computer technology, which enables to get the optimal parameters under various constrains, so that the optimal value could be achieved. Optimization design is a method to ensure better usability, lower cost and reducing weight and volume when normally use it. This method can also shorten the design cycle and enhance the design efficiency.

Hydraulic electromagnetic energy-regenerative shock absorber is a new kind of shock absorbers, who can perform the function of a standard shock while acting as an additional source of power. One of the core components of this new shock absorber is the valve system. And its function is to rectify the direction of the oil flow. Then the oil can flow through the hydraulic motor from one port only no matter in expansion stroke or compression stroke. The research focused on the compactness, sensitivity and energy recovery rate of two different valve systems. And the results showed that the valve system composed of check valves better matched the hydraulic electromagnetic energy-regenerative shock absorber.

In this study, a novel nanogap fabrication technique is proposed. The technique is based on electron-beam lithography combined with rapid thermal annealing (RTA) to reduce the self-aligned nanogap on metal layer. The procedure running through systematic experimental design via Taguchi method and considering the critical factors such as metal type, Si thickness, RTA temperature, RTA time and initial nanogap dimension affecting the final nanogap dimensions was optimized. The experiments were conducted using Taguchi method and modified particle swarm optimization for setting the optimal parameters. The experimental results show that the most important factors in nanogap reduction were the metal type and the initial nanogap. The optimal parameter settings were metal type Pt on 50 nm Si/SiO2, 400°C, 60s and 43nm for initial gap. Experiment results found that the metal type Pt provided larger shrink ratio than that of Ni and nanogap down to 30 nm. It is also noted that the proposed approach was reproducible due to the confirmation experiments SNRs within the 95% confidence interval.

Laser cladding utilizes a high-powered laser to fuse and solidify the metal powders, which results in a complex change of physical and mechanical properties. Selection of parameters and creative structure design are critical for laser cladding technology. High-speed steel is cladded on the base metal 40Cr by diode laser to investigate the influence of curvature radius, scanning speed, gas flow and laser power. The micro hardness and residue stress are tested while the microstructure is analyzed. According to analysis of the process parameters in orthogonal experiment, the optimal parameters are: curvature radius 100 mm, laser power 1200W, gas flow 1000 L/h, and scanning speed 16 mm/s. Under the optimal parameters, the microstructure and grid is uniform and the grain growth is along the same direction.
