Control Response

This study presents the design, dynamic model, and dynamics research of a new cyclic pitch control strategy in motor-driven rotorcraft. In this strategy, the control response and flapping feature of conventional rotor systems can be obtained by imposing (1) a lag-pitch coupling on rotor blade and (2) an additional sinusoidal rotational speed of rotor shaft without any actuators or swashplate. This study establishes a refined nonlinear dynamic model including the effects of pitch motion, and figures out the fundamental dynamic characteristics of this novel configuration. Analyses of its mechanical stability, dynamic responses and stability in hover are also conducted. The model in this research, compared with the previous linear model, improves the predicting accuracies of dynamic responses remarkably. A preliminary understanding of this novel rotor's dynamic mechanisms is gained by this study.

Abstract. A noncircular face gear (NFG) conjugated with a pinion is a new type of face gear which can transmit variable velocity ratio and in which two time-varying excitations exist, namely the meshing stiffness excitation and instantaneous center excitation. Considering the tooth backlash, static transmission error and multifrequency parametric excitation, a nonlinear dynamic model of the NFG pair is presented. Based on the harmonic balance method and discrete Fourier transformation, a semi-analytic approach for the nonlinear dynamic model is given to analyze the dynamic behaviors of the NFG. Results demonstrate that, with increase in the eccentric ratio, input velocity and error amplitude, the NFG will undergo a non-rattle, unilateral rattle and bilateral rattle state in succession, and a jump phenomenon will appear in the dynamic responses when the rattle state of the gears is transformed from unilateral rattle to bilateral rattle.

The dynamic model of 12-degrees-of-freedom for spur gears pair accounting for nonlinear time-varying stiffness, damping, and coefficient of friction along the path of contact obtained from experimental tests is investigated. The Newmark's integration method is used to solve the equations and obtain the dynamic responses. Elementary mass, stiffness, and damping matrices with torsional and translational coupled effects were detailed. The lens of this work is to start from a nonlinear dynamic model to evaluate the influence of dynamic effects and lubrication on meshing gears power loss for different spur gear geometries within various operating conditions. The results reveal some useful references to vibration control, dynamic design, and efficiency improvement.

Flexible Gear

In this study, a new rigid–flexible gear with metal rubber is proposed to reduce the vibration of the gear transmission system. A nonlinear dynamic model with nine degrees of freedom considering bearing clearance, gear backlash, surface friction, and time-varying meshing stiffness is established. The nondimensional dynamic model of the transmission system is obtained and the bifurcation characteristics of the new rigid–flexible gear pair and the rigid gear pair are analyzed when the damping coefficient is, respectively, 0.03 and 0.1. The result shows that the motion state of the rigid–flexible gear pair is more stable. The dynamic responses of the rigid gear pair and the rigid–flexible gear pair are compared as well through numerical analysis and experiment to illustrate the advantage of the rigid–flexible gear pair in vibration reduction. The results can provide reference for vibration reduction of the novel gear transmission.

Abstract The hydra-power articulated steering vehicles possess brilliant maneuverability and efficiency, and they were widely applied in mining, construction, agriculture, and forestry. However, the steering characteristic also deduced a serious handling stability problem of this type of vehicle, i.e., oscillation in yaw motion. Previous research only analyzed the stability of the vehicle dynamical system or provided a passive structural method to suppress the oscillation of articulated vehicles. This work presents a novel model-based steering control of articulated steering vehicles. A coupled nonlinear dynamic model was established firstly, in which nonlinear models of the hydraulic system and dynamic model of articulated frames were included. Then the coupled model was validated in time and frequency domain by a field test. The susceptibility of different factors of the system oscillation was investigated by simulation based on the validated model. On this foundation, an optimized scheme of the hydraulic steering system was provided. Further a novel control strategy, in which the articulation angle and corresponding angular velocity were considered together as the control variables of the system, was embedded into the optimized system. Comparing results in dynamic responses of articulated frames, ripples in the hydraulic steering system shown the effectiveness and superiority of the presented method.

Two different simulation models for integrated dynamic analysis of floating offshore wind turbines are described and compared with model scale experiments for the Hywind concept for floating offshore wind turbines. A variety of both environmental conditions and wind turbine control schemes are tested. A maximum power control strategy is applied for wind velocities below the rated wind speed for the wind turbine, while a constant power control strategy is achieved by controlling the rotor blade pitch for wind velocities above rated wind speed. Conventional rotor blade pitch control for wind velocities above rated wind speed introduces negative damping of the tower motion. This results in excitation of the natural frequency in pitch for the tower and may lead to unacceptable tower motions. Active damping of the undesirable tower motions is obtained by an additional pitch control algorithm based on measurement of the tower velocity.

Hybrid Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (H-UAVs) are currently a very interesting field of research in the modern scientific community due to their ability to perform Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) and Conventional Take-Off and Landing (CTOL). This paper focuses on the Dual Tilt-wing UAV, a vehicle capable of performing both flight modes (VTOL and CTOL). The UAV complete dynamic model is obtained using the Newton–Euler formulation, which includes aerodynamic effects, as the drag and lift forces of the wings, which are a function of airstream generated by the rotors, the cruise speed, tilt-wing angle and angle of attack. The airstream velocity generated by the rotors is studied in a test bench. The projected area on the UAV wing that is affected by the airstream generated by the rotors is specified and 3D aerodynamic analysis is performed for this region. In addition, aerodynamic coefficients of the UAV in VTOL mode are calculated by using Computational Fluid Dynamics method (CFD) and are embedded into the nonlinear dynamic model. To validate the complete dynamic model, PD controllers are adopted for altitude and attitude control of the vehicle in VTOL mode, the controllers are simulated and implemented in the vehicle for indoor and outdoor flight experiments.

Suspension Geometry

Dynamic analysis is an essential task in the geometry design of suspension systems. Whereas the dynamic simulation based on numerical software like Adams is quite slowly and the existing analytical models of the nonlinear suspension geometry are mostly based on small displacement hypothesis, this paper aims to propose a whole-range dynamic model with high computational efficiency for planar double wishbone suspensions and further achieve the fast optimal design of suspension geometry. Selection of the new generalized coordinate and explicit solutions of the basic four-bar mechanism dramatically reduce the complexity of suspension geometry representation and provide analytical solutions for all of the time varying dimensions. By this means, the running speed and computational accuracy of the new model are guaranteed simultaneously. Furthermore, an original Matlab/Simulink implementation is given to maintain the geometric nonlinearity in the solving process of dynamic differential equations. After verifying its accuracy with an ADAMS prototype, the presented whole-range model is used in the vast-parameter optimization of suspension geometry. Since both kinematic and dynamic performances are evaluated in the objective function, the optimization is qualified to give a comprehensive suggestion to the design of suspension geometry.
