As smart materials, magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) have been broadly applied in the field of intelligent structures and devices. In order to mathematically represent the dynamic behavior in a wide range of strain amplitude, excitation frequency and magnetic field; a nonlinear model with a fractional element was developed for MREs in a linear viscoelastic regime. The identification of model parameters was realized through fitting experimental data of dynamic moduli measured in shear mode, and the identified parameters exhibited good repeatability and consistency to reflect the rationality of this nonlinear dynamic model. Considering material elasticity and viscosity, the dependence of model parameters on strain amplitudes and magnetic fields was analyzed to interpret the dynamics of MREs. The fitted results displayed an excellent agreement with the experimental results on the dependence of dynamic moduli on strain amplitudes and magnetic fields. Using the predictor-corrector approach, predicted results on the stress-strain hysteresis loop were calculated based on identified parameters to further validate the proposed model by comparing with experimental results and predicted results of the revised Bouc-Wen model. This proposed model is expected to facilitate the dynamic analysis and simulation of MRE based vibration systems with a high precision accuracy.

This paper presents a handy nonlinear dynamic model for the design of a two stage pilot pressure relief servo-valve. Previous surveys indicate that the performance of existing control valves has been limited by the lack of an accurate dynamic model. However, most of the existing dynamic models of pressure relief valves are developed for the selection of a suitable valve for a hydraulic system, and assume model parameters which are not directly controllable during the manufacturing process. As a result, such models are less useful for a manufacturer eager to improve the performance of a pressure valve. In contrast, model parameters in the present approach have been limited to dimensions measurable from the blue prints of the valve such that a specific design can be evaluated by simulation before actually manufacturing the valve. Moreover, the resultant model shows excellent agreement with experiments in a wide range of operating conditions.

A nonlinear dynamic model of a large flow solenoid is presented with the multi-physics dynamic simulation software called SimulationX. Validation is performed by comparing the experimental results with the simulated ones. The dynamic characteristics of the large flow solenoid valve are analyzed. Different structural parameters are modified in this research and the diameter of the orifice is proved to be one of the most important parameters which influences the pressure response most.

A nonlinear dynamic model for an unconventional, commercially available electrohydraulic flow control servovalve is presented. The two stage valve differs from the conventional servovalve design in that: it uses a pressure control pilot stage; the boost stage uses two spools, instead of a single spool, to meter flow into and out of the valve separately; and it does not require a feedback wire and ball. Consequently, the valve is significantly less expensive. The proposed model captures the nonlinear and dynamic effects. The model has been coded in Matlab/Simulink and experimentally validated.

Consequently, the valve is significantly less expensive. The proposed model captures the nonlinear and dynamic effects not present in previous models.

To reduce the deviation caused by the stochastic environmental disturbances, estimating these disturbances is required to compensate the navigation system. Based on the idea of Kalman filter using least-squares algorithm for optimal estimation, a nonlinear disturbances estimator which can be perfectly integrated with cubature Kalman filter (CKF) is proposed. For the nonlinear disturbances estimator, the disturbances are estimated by gain matrix, innovation sequences, and innovation covariance generated by CKF. The disturbances estimating and compensating algorithm consists of three parts. Firstly, the navigation system state space model is established based on nonlinear dynamic model of six degrees of freedom. Secondly, the external disturbances are estimated by using CKF and a nonlinear estimator. Finally, the disturbances compensation is carried out by improving the system state equation. In view of the uncertainty of the dynamic model and the randomness of external disturbances, numerical simulation experiments are conducted in the circumstances of sinusoidal disturbances, random disturbances, and uncertain model parameters. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can estimate disturbances effectively and improves navigation accuracy significantly.

In this study, the development and validation of a simplified nonlinear dynamic model of a passive twin-tube hydraulic shock absorber is presented. First, the experimental dynamic response is characterized. Then, the numerical model is presented where flow, pressure, displacement, and velocity are considered. Finally, the numerical–experimental correlation is performed on force-movement dynamic behavior to prove the accuracy of the proposed model. The final goal of the model is to be integrated in a real-time driving simulator for ride comfort studies.
