Drive systems may experience torsional vibrations due to various kinds of excitation mechanisms. In many engineering systems, however, such vibrations may have a negative impact on the performance and must be avoided or reduced to an acceptable level by all means. Self-excited vibrations are especially unwanted, since they may grow rapidly and not only degrade the performance but even damage machinery. In this contribution it is suggested to employ parametric stiffness excitation to suppress self-excited vibrations. In the first part of the article we study the basic energy transfer mechanism that is initiated by parametric excitation, and some general conclusions are drawn. In the second part, a hypothetic drivetrain, consisting of an electrical motor, a drive shaft and working rolls is investigated. A self-excitation mechanism is assumed to destabilize the drive system. Parametric excitation is introduced via the speed control of the electrical drive, and the capability of stabilizing the system by this measure is investigated. It is shown that the damping available in the system can be used much more effectively if parametric stiffness excitation is employed.

ABSTRACTThe role of the excitonic excitation mechanism of the rare earth (RE) intra-shell emission is discussed. Two cases are analyzed. For Yb ion in InP 4f-4f emission of Yb3+ is induced by energy transfer from bound exciton state to the RE core state. For Eu in CaS and SrS RE emission is induced by carrier trapping directly to the excited state of Eu2+ ion. Also in this case the intermediate excitonic state may participate in RE excitation, as suggested by some experimental results.

AbstractIn the paper the existing information on the optical excitation of the erbium ion in crystalline silicon is critically reviewed. The proposed excitation mechanism is compared to the one which is believed to be responsible for the luminescence of ytterbium in indium phosphide. To this end the influence of constant and microwave electric field on the photoluminescence of both systems is inspected. It is shown that, although both systems show some similarities, their analogy is limited.The particular role of excitons and electrons in both the excitation as well as the de-excitation mechanism is investigated for the Si:Er system. The results of photoluminescence decay studies (T=4.2 K) are presented. It is argued that a nonradiative energy transfer to conduction electrons is responsible for the limitation of the energy transfer to the Er core and for its nonradiative recombination. Also, a prominent role of excitons in the energy transfer mechanism is confirmed. Finally, the origin of the 873 meV photoluminescence band recently reported in Er-implanted Si is discussed in relation to a possible defect-mediated activation of Er.

Meso-substituted borondipyrromethene (BODIPY)-porphyrin compounds that include free base porphyrin with two different numbers of BODIPY groups (BDP-TTP and 3BDP-TTP) were designed and synthesized to analyze intramolecular energy transfer mechanisms of meso-substituted BODIPY-porphyrin dyads and the effect of the different numbers of BODIPY groups connected to free-base porphyrin on the energy transfer mechanism. Absorption spectra of BODIPY-porphyrin conjugates showed wide absorption features in the visible region, and that is highly valuable to increase light-harvesting efficiency. Fluorescence spectra of the studied compounds proved that BODIPY emission intensity decreased upon the photoexcitation of the BODIPY core, due to the energy transfer from BODIPY unit to porphyrin. In addition, ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy measurements indicated that the energy transfer of the 3BDP-TTP compound (about 3 ps) is faster than the BDP-TTP compound (about 22 ps). Since the BODIPY core directly binds to the porphyrin unit, rapid energy transfer was seen for both compounds. Thus, the energy transfer rate increased with an increasing number of BODIPY moiety connected to free-base porphyrin.

The free motion of an undamped pendulum-type vibration absorber is studied on the basis of approximate nonlinear equations of motion. It is shown that this type of mechanical system exhibits the phenomenon of auto parametric excitation; a type of “instability” which cannot be accounted for on the basis of the linearized system. Complete energy transfer between modes is shown to occur when the beam frequency is twice the simple pendulum frequency. On the basis of a numerical solution, approximately 150 cycles of the beam oscillation take place during a single cycle of energy interchange.
