A dynamic model of the rotating shrouded blade is established, considering the shroud mass, the Coriolis force, and the centrifugal stiffening effect. And a macroslip model of dry friction with variable normal load is established to simulate the separation-contact-stick-slip state of the shroud. The Lagrangian equation is utilized to solve the differential motion equation, and the Galerkin method is used for discretization. The influence of shroud structure’s parameters such as rotational speed, contact angle, friction coefficient, clearance, and shroud position on the damping effect of the shroud is reviewed by means of amplitude-frequency response and energy through the Newmark-β numerical method. The results demonstrate that the damping effect of the shroud by contact is more obvious than by friction and the amplitude-frequency curve of the shrouded blade shows a strong hard nonlinear phenomenon.

<p>This study analyses a situation when a geological fault contains a section of anisotropic gouge with inclined symmetry axes (e.g. inclined layering), Bafekrpour et al. [1]. Such gouge in a constrained environment induces, under compression, asymmetric friction (different friction forces resisting sliding in the opposite directions). The rest of the gouge produces conventional symmetric friction. A mass-spring model of the gouge with asymmetric and symmetric friction sections is proposed consisting of a mass with asymmetric friction connected through a spring to another mass with symmetric friction. These masses are set on a base subjected to vibration. A parametric analysis is performed on this system. Two distinct characteristic regimes were observed: <em>recurrent movement</em> resembling stick-slip motion similar to predicted by [2] and <em>sub-frictional movement</em>. Recurrent movement arises when the inertial force is sufficient to overcome frictional force of a block with symmetric friction. Sub-frictional movement occurs when the inertial force is not sufficient to overcome frictional force of an equivalent system with only symmetric friction. The sub-frictional movement is produced by the force in the connecting spring increased due to the movement of the asymmetric friction block in the direction characterised by low friction. We formulate the criterion at which sub-frictional movement occurs. The occurrence of sub-frictional depends upon the relative mass of the symmetric and asymmetric friction sections, as well as the amplitude and driving frequency of the excitation. Power spectra of the produced vibrations are determined for both regimes. The results can shed light on mechanisms of sliding over pre-existing discontinuities and their effect on seismic event generation and propagation of hydraulic fractures in the presence of discontinuities.</p><p>[1] Bafekrpour,<strong> </strong>E., A.V.

Abstract This paper proposes a flexible dry friction plate to mitigate the vibration of thin-walled structures for one resonance crossing. Based on a cantilever beam-friction damper finite element model, the geometry and material parameters of the friction plate are optimized numerically through steady-state response analyses by the widely-used Multi-Harmonic Balance Method (MHBM). In order to further improve the damping effect, piezoelectric material is distributed to the flexible damper, and two types of dry friction and piezoelectric hybrid dampers are explored, namely semi-active and passive, respectively. For semi-active hybrid dampers, piezoelectric material is used as an actuator to adjust the normal load applied to the friction interface in real time, so that the friction damping is improved. For passive ones, piezoelectric material is used as a transducer, which dissipates the strain energy stored in the wavy plate by the shunting circuit, additional shunted piezoelectric damping contributes to the total output damping accordingly. Better damping effect compared with the friction baseline is realized for the two types ideally. This damping module has a simple structure and avoids the problem of installation and maintenance of piezoelectric material which is generally bonded to the host structure. Technical challenges are: the semi-active type requires excessive voltage applied to the piezoelectric actuator, while the passive one needs to connect a programmable synthetic circuit.

The transition between static and kinetic frictions of steel/shale pairs has been studied. It was found that the coefficient of friction decreased exponentially from static to dynamic friction coefficient with increasing sliding displacement. The difference between static and dynamic friction coefficients and the critical distance Dc under the dry friction condition is much larger than that under the lubricated condition. The transition from static to dynamic friction coefficient is greatly affected by the normal load, quiescent time, and sliding velocity, especially the lubricating condition. Maintaining continuous lubrication of the contact area by the lubricant is crucial to reduce or eliminate the stick-slip motion. The results provide an insight into the transition from static to dynamic friction of steel/shale pairs.

A new rotating beam finite element is developed in which the basis functions are obtained by the exact solution of the governing static homogenous differential equation of a stiff string, which results from an approximation in the rotating beam equation. These shape functions depend on rotation speed and element position along the beam and account for the centrifugal stiffening effect. Using this new element and the Hermite cubic finite element, a convergence study of natural frequencies is performed, and it is found that the new element converges much more rapidly than the conventional Hermite cubic element for the first two modes at higher rotation speeds. The new element is also applied for uniform and tapered rotating beams to determine the natural frequencies, and the results compare very well with the published results given in the literature.

Abstract A 2k factorial experiment is performed to ascertain the effect of four factors and their cross influence on friction between dry surfaces. The factors in this study include materials Young’s modulus, applied normal load, surface roughness and relative surface speed. For each combination of factors four replicates in addition to two center points are used to obtain an average coefficient of friction for dry contact. In the experiment 304 Stainless Steel and Alloy 6061 Aluminum are employed to provide the high and low levels of Young’s modulus. Results suggest that Young’s modulus has the most significant influence followed by velocity/modulus cross-coupling, surface roughness, load, and modulus/roughness. Analyses are carried out separately for the 304 Stainless Steel and alloy 6061 Aluminum to remove the effect of Young’s modulus. The results are used to obtain iso-friction curves that serve to establish force-speed control for prevention of stick-slip vibration.

A common problem in the petroleum drilling process is the torsional oscillation generated by the friction present during the cutting process. Torsional oscillations in drill string are particularly difficult to control because the drill string is an underactuated system, it has a very small diameter to length ratio and it is driven at top end with the cutting process at the other end. These factors make the drill string prone to self-excited torsional vibrations caused by the stick-slip of the cutting bit. The system is modeled as a torsional pendulum with two degrees of freedom, where the upper inertia models the top drive and also part of the drilling pipes. The bottom inertia models the bottom hole assembly (BHA). The drill is considered to be a massless torsional spring-damper. The drill string is subjected to friction, which is formulated using a dry friction model. The friction model takes into account Coulomb friction, stiction and Stribeck effect. The latter friction component is the main nonlinear phenomenon that introduces negative damping at the bit; it leads to self-enforcing stick-slip torsional oscillations.In the approach of this work, for the attenuation of these self-excited oscillations a recursive backstepping control strategy is used and it is carried out in continuous time. The main contribution of this work, which is different from the backstepping approaches reported in the literature, is to use a nonlinear/artificial damping as virtual control input. The stability of the system has been proven in the sense of Lyapunov. The goal of the proposed algorithm is to deal the underactuation of the system and to provide a good response for different operating points. The effectiveness and robustness of the controller has been tested in simulations.

Many aspects of both grip function and tactile perception depend on complex frictional interactions occurring in the contact zone of the finger pad, which is the subject of the current review. While it is well established that friction plays a crucial role in grip function, its exact contribution for discriminatory touch involving the sliding of a finger pad is more elusive. For texture discrimination, it is clear that vibrotaction plays an important role in the discriminatory mechanisms. Among other factors, friction impacts the nature of the vibrations generated by the relative movement of the fingertip skin against a probed object. Friction also has a major influence on the perceived tactile pleasantness of a surface. The contact mechanics of a finger pad is governed by the fingerprint ridges and the sweat that is exuded from pores located on these ridges. Counterintuitively, the coefficient of friction can increase by an order of magnitude in a period of tens of seconds when in contact with an impermeably smooth surface, such as glass. In contrast, the value will decrease for a porous surface, such as paper. The increase in friction is attributed to an occlusion mechanism and can be described by first-order kinetics. Surprisingly, the sensitivity of the coefficient of friction to the normal load and sliding velocity is comparatively of second order, yet these dependencies provide the main basis of theoretical models which, to-date, largely ignore the time evolution of the frictional dynamics. One well-known effect on taction is the possibility of inducing stick–slip if the friction decreases with increasing sliding velocity. Moreover, the initial slip of a finger pad occurs by the propagation of an annulus of failure from the perimeter of the contact zone and this phenomenon could be important in tactile perception and grip function.

This paper presents the stability analysis of a system sliding at low velocities (<100 μm⋅s−1) under a periodically modulated normal load, preserving interfacial contact. Experiments clearly evidence that normal vibrations generally stabilize the system against stick-slip oscillations, at least for a modulation frequency much larger than the stick-slip one. The mechanical model of L. Bureau, T. Baumberger, and C. Caroli validated on the steady-state response of the system, is used to map its stability diagram. The model takes explicitly into account the finite shear stiffness of the load-bearing asperities, in addition to a classical state and rate-dependent friction force. The numerical results are in excellent quantitative agreement with the experimental data obtained from a multicontact frictional system between glassy polymer materials. Simulations at larger amplitude of modulation (typically 20 percent of the mean normal load) suggest that the nonlinear coupling between normal and sliding motion could have a destabilizing effect in restricted regions of the parameter space.
