This paper aims at investigating the dynamic characteristics of a microring driven by dual arch electrodes because they are basic elements of microelectrostatic motors. The dual arch electrodes surround the periphery of the microring and are arranged symmetrically to the center of the ring. The electrodes are fixed while the microring is flexible. The electrostatic force will deform the microring, while the deflection of the microring changes the gap between the microring and the electrodes, thereby changing the electrostatic force. Therefore, this is an electromechanical coupling effect. The nonlinear partial-differential equation that governs the motion of the microring is derived based on thin shell theory. Then, based on the assumption of small deflection, the nonlinear governing equation is linearized by truncating the higher-order terms of the Taylor series expansion of the nonlinear electrostatic force. After that, the linearized governing equation is discretized into a set of ordinary differential equations using Galerkin method in which the mode shape functions of the ring are adopted. The influences of the structural damping of the microring and the span of the arch electrodes on the forced response and dynamical stabilities of the microring are investigated. The results show that the damping ratio has a great influence on the system instability during high-frequency excitation. The unstable region of the system can increase with the increase of the electrode span; the response amplitude can also be increased within a certain range.

Abstract RP(Rotation-Parallel) flexible robot as a typical electromechanical system. The complex electromechanical coupling effect in the system has a significant impact on the dynamic characteristics and stability of the flexible manipulator. This article investigates the electromechanical coupling dynamics and vibration response characteristics of flexible robot manipulator driven by AC(Alternating Current) servo motor with considering the start-up dynamic characteristics of the motor. Firstly, the physical model including the coupling of electromagnetic and mechanical system is established, and the dynamic model of the whole system is derived based on the global electromechanical coupling effect and Lagrange-Maxwell equations. Secondly, the virtual simulation platform is constructed with the help of MATLAB/Simulink, and the output speed characteristics of the motor drive end and the motion of the moving base are analyzed. Finally, through the joint simulation of MATLAB/Simulink dynamic simulation model and ADAMS/Controls virtual prototype model, the vibration characteristics of flexible manipulator under electromechanical coupling are obtained. The result demonstrates that the electromechanical coupling effect at the motor driving end has an obvious influence on the dynamic characteristics of the flexible manipulator, which is manifested in the increase of the vibration displacement amplitude of the flexible manipulator. With the increase of motor speed, the change of elastic vibration of flexible manipulator becomes larger, which shows that the electromechanical coupling effect of motor driving end has a greater impact on the dynamic characteristics of flexible manipulator at high speed. The analysis results are of great significance to improve the dynamic performance of motor-driven flexible robot manipulator.

The flexoelectricity, which is a new electromechanical coupling phenomenon between strain gradients and electric polarization, has a great influence on the fracture analysis of flexoelectric solids due to the large gradients near the cracks. On the other hand, although the flexoelectricity has been extensively investigated in recent decades, the study on flexoelectricity in nonhomogeneous materials is still rare, especially the fracture problems. Therefore, in this manuscript, the conservation integrals for nonhomogeneous flexoelectric materials are obtained to solve the fracture problem. Application of operators such as grad, div, and curl to electric Gibbs free energy and internal energy, the energy-momentum tensor, angular momentum tensor, and dilatation flux can also be derived. We examine the correctness of the conservation integrals by comparing with the previous work and discuss the operator method here and Noether theorem in the previous work. Finally, considering the flexoelectric effect, a nonhomogeneous beam problem with crack is solved to show the application of the conservation integrals.

Abstract A new 100 MW (135,000 Hp) adjustable speed drive system has recently been installed in the NASA Langley National Transonic Facility. The 100 MW system is the largest of its kind in the world and consists of a salient pole synchronous motor powered by a 12-pulse Load Commutated Inverter variable frequency drive. During system commissioning the drive line torsional vibrations were measured with strain gages and a telemetry-based data acquisition system. The torque measurements included drive start-up and steady-state operation at speeds where the drive motor’s pulsating torques match the drive line’s torsional natural frequency. Rapid drive acceleration rates with short dwell times were effective in reducing torsional vibrations during drive starts. Measured peak torsional vibrations during steady-state operation were comparable to predicted values and large enough to produce noticeable lateral vibrations in the drive line shafting. Cyclic shaft stresses for all operating conditions were well within the fatigue limits of the drive line components. A comparison of the torque measurements to an analytical forced response model concluded that a 0.5% critical damping ratio was appropriately applied in the drive line’s torsional analysis.

Development of micro and ultra-precision machining, precision instruments and equipment, precision assembly and testing has put forward more and more high requirements to vibration isolation on environmental elements, especially the pedestrian excitation generated by workers' normal walking. Therefore, it is very important to study the pedestrian excitation's influence on vibration characteristics of precision instruments and equipment. In this study, dynamic model including mathematical model of pedestrian excitation, interaction model between pedestrian and rectangular plate structure, the human–plate coupled dynamic equation in vertical direction of pedestrian–plate structure was established. And then we use the Newmark-β method to solve the time-domain step-by-step integration of the first four order modes' dynamic equations and study the influence of the linear notion trajectory along the central axis direction on the dynamic characteristics of the rectangular plate. By simulation, we discussed plate structure response under different conditions, including plate structure displacement and acceleration response under the single person excitation with different velocities, under normal walking velocity with different number of pedestrians and under this case of different distance between two pedestrians. The results show that the structural vibration induced by pedestrian excitation has great influence on dynamic characteristics of plate.

This paper developed a modified quasi-static model (MQSM), considering the oil film thickness between the bearing parts and the centrifugal deformation of the inner ring, and contrasting with traditional quasi-static model (TQSM), to analyze the dynamic characteristics of spindle bearing. The model was verified with the experimental results. A systematic parametric analysis was made to investigate the influence of applied load, inner ring rotation speed (ni), and the radius coefficient of groove curvature (RCR) on the contact load, contact angle, and heat generating rate. The results show that there is a smaller influence on the contact load, contact angle, and heat generation of bearing with the changes of ni and axial load (Fa) of bearing in the case of MQSM and TQSM. But the radial load (Fr) and RCR have great influence on this.

Comparative analyses of twenty-eight finite element structures with filler walls were established to study dynamic characteristics of RC frame structures under seismic waves. The results of these analyses show that filler walls have little influence on vibration modes of the structure. But as a result of soft storey in the bottom of building caused by reduction of the filler walls, vibration modes have a great influence. As the stiffness of filler wall decrease, the stiffness of soft storey decrease shapely, vibration mode curve becomes much smoother. Considering the filler wall has influence on the vibration periods of framework, the reduction factor of 0.7 should be taken. The influence of filler wall to the value of lateral drift and storey displacement angle of frame can not be ignored. The main effect factors to the dynamic characteristics of framework are included quantity, location, material of the fill wall and the selection of seismic waves.

This paper is concerned with analysis of dynamic behavior of an Euler-Bernoulli beam resting on an elastic foundation. The beam is assumed to be subjected to a uniformly distributed lateral static load, have an initial quarter-sine shape deflection. At one end, the beam is assumed to be restrained by a pin, while at the other end, the beam is assumed to be restrained by a torsional and a translational linear spring. The beam is modeled by a nonlinear partial differential equation where the nonlinearity enters the governing equation through the beam axial force. In the static case, because of a unique feature of governing equation, the analysis was carried out using the theory of linear differential equations, but takes into account the effect of actual deflection on the induced axial thrust. In the dynamic case, stability analysis of the beam is carried out by calculating the nonlinear frequencies of free vibration of the beam about its static equilibrium configuration. The assumed mode method is used to discretize and find an equivalent nonlinear initial value problem. Then the harmonic balance is used to obtain an approximate solution to the nonlinear oscillator described by the equivalent initial value problem. The analyses of results were carried out for a selected range of values of the system parameters: foundation elastic stiffness, lateral load, and maximum beam edge deflection. In the static case the results are presented as characteristic curves showing the variation of the beam static deflection and associated bending moment distribution with each of the above system parameters. In the dynamic case, the presented characteristic curves show the variation of the nonlinear natural frequency corresponding to the first and the second modes over a range of each of the above system parameters.

Cyclic shearing behavior, dynamic characteristics, and post-cyclic volume change of a peat sublayer from the Port Lands area of Toronto (Ontario, Canada) are investigated in this study. Laboratory specimens are trimmed from block samples collected from a depth of about 4.0 to 4.5 m. Constant-volume cyclic direct simple shear tests indicate an initial reduction of effective stress with number of stress cycles. However, the corresponding excess pore pressure ratios do not exceed 60%, indicating a cyclic mobility behavior in the peat specimens. Maximum shear moduli of the peat samples are also determined from shear wave velocity measurements. Post-cyclic volumetric strain, as well as the variations of secant modulus, modulus reduction, and damping ratio of the peat are presented in terms of cyclic shear strain and compared with other studies. Empirical relationships are proposed for characterizing the shear modulus and damping ratio of Toronto peat.

Rotor rub-impact has a great influence on the stability and safety of a rotating machine. This study develops a dynamic model of a two-span rotor-bearing system with rubbing faults, and numerical simulation is carried out. Moreover, frictional screws are used to simulate a rubbing state by establishing a set of experimental devices that can simulate rotor-stator friction in the rotor system. Through the experimental platform and its analysis system, the rubbing experiment was conducted, and the vibration of the rotor-bearing system before and after the critical speed is observed. Rotors running under normal condition, local slight rubbing, and severe rubbing throughout the entire cycle are simulated. Dynamic trajectories, frequency spectrum diagrams, chart of axis track, and Poincare maps are used to analyze the features of the rotor-bearing system with rub-impact faults under various parameters. The vibration characteristics of rub impact are obtained. Results show that the dynamic characteristics of the rotor-bearing system are affected by the change in velocity and degree of impact friction. The findings are helpful in further understanding the dynamic characteristics of the rub-impact fault of the two-span rotor-bearing system and provide reference for fault diagnosis.
