Kinematics and dynamics are the most important and basic tool for robot research. With the help of computer technology and the respective advantages of three kinds of software, a new method of co-simulation of parallel robot based on multi-platform is proposed, and the mechanical model of multi-body system of 3-revolute-prismatic-spherical parallel robot is established. According to the mechanical analysis of the parallel robot, the rigid-flexible coupling analysis method is adopted. The displacement error shows a periodic change with a period of 4.2 s and the maximum error is [Formula: see text]. The dangerous part of the structure is the root of the lower link, and its maximum stress is 202.64 MPa less than the yield strength of the material. The multi-software platform co-simulation improves the accuracy of the dynamic response analysis of the part under dynamic load, and provides an important theoretical basis for the design and optimization of the parallel robot.

This paper mainly investigated the rigid-flexible dynamics simulation method of multi-body system. The 3-RPS parallel robot dynamics model is created by ADAMS (multi-body dynamics software) and ANSYS (finite element analysis software). In accordance with the flexible-body theory, we analyzed mechanical characteristics of parallel robot with no-load or full-load working condition, and got the deformation of end measuring point, maximum stress position and dynamics stress curve. The analysis method is more intuitional and accurate, and can increase the accuracy of dynamic response analysis of links under the dynamic loads. The simulation results create conditions for structure design and optimization of 3-RPS parallel robot.

Railway vehicle structure fatigue life consumption monitoring can be used to determine fatigue damage by directly or indirectly monitoring the loads placed on critical vehicle components susceptible to failure from fatigue damage. The sample locomotive carbody structure was used for this study. Firstly, the hybrid fatigue analysis method was used with Multi-Body System (MBS) simulation and Finite Element Method (FEM) for evaluating the carbody structure dynamic stress histories. Secondly, the standard fatigue time domain method was used in fatigue analysis software FE-FATIGUE and MATLAB WAFO (Wave Analysis for Fatigue and Oceanography) tools. And carbody structure fatigue life and fatigue damage were predicted. Finally, and carbody structure dynamic stress experimental data was taken from this locomotive running between Kunming-Weishe for this analysis. The data was used to validate the simulation results based on hybrid method. The analysis results show that the hybrid method prediction error is approximately 30.7%. It also illustrates that the fatigue life and durability of the locomotive can be predicted with this hybrid method. The results of this study can be modified to be representative of the railway vehicle dynamic stress test.

Grazing Flow

In the context of noise reduction in diverse applications where a shear grazing flow is present (i.e., engine nacelle, jet pump, landing gear), improved acoustic liner solutions are being sought. This is particularly true in the low-frequency regime, where space constraints currently limit the efficiency of classic liner technology. To perform the required multi-objective optimization of complex meta-surface liner candidates, a software platform called OPAL was developed. Its first goal is to allow the user to assemble a large panel of parallel/serial assembly of unit acoustic elements, including the recent concept of LEONAR materials. Then, the physical properties of this liner can be optimized, relatively to given weighted objectives (noise reduction, total size of the sample, weight), for a given configuration. Alternatively, properties such as the different impedances of liner unit surfaces can be optimized. To accelerate the process, different nested levels of optimization are considered, from 0D analytical coarse designs in order to reduce the parameter space, up to 2D plan or axisymmetric high-order Discontinuous Galerkin resolution of the Linearized Euler Equations. The presentation will focus on the different aspects of liner design considered in OPAL, and present an application on different samples made for a small scale aeroacoustic bench.

The development of numerical simulations is potentially useful in predicting the most suitable manufacturing processes and ultimately improving product quality. Seamless pipes are manufactured by a rotary piercing process in which round billets (workpiece) are fed between two rolls and pierced by a stationary plug. During this process, the material undergoes severe deformation which renders it impractical to be modelled and analysed with conventional finite element methods. In this paper, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the piercing process are performed with an arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) formulation in LS-DYNA software. Details about the material model as well as the elements’ formulations are elaborated here, and mesh sensitivity analysis was performed. The results of the numerical simulations are in good agreement with experimental data found in the literature and the validity of the analysis method is confirmed. The effects of varying workpiece velocity, process temperature, and wall thickness on the maximum stress levels of the product material/pipes are investigated by performing simulations of sixty scenarios. Three-dimensional surface plots are generated which can be utilized to predict the maximum stress value at any given combination of the three parameters.

Kinematic Errors

This work deals with the estimation and the sensitivity analysis of the 3-UPU parallel robot error. Based on the Newton–Euler formalism, the robot dynamic model is given in a closed form. This model is validated by the software ADAMS. Using the interval analysis method, a new algorithm is proposed, which estimates the errors in the motion of the end-effector and the errors in the actuator forces as a function of the design parameters uncertainties. The obtained results show that the kinematic errors are minimal at the workspace center. Moreover, these errors increase as the platform moves along the vertical axis. It is also shown that kinematic errors in the actuator joints are the most influential parameters on the manipulator accuracy. Therefore, using actuators with a higher accuracy can highly reduce the errors in motion of the platform.

The Difference

Dose-response studies are an important tool in weed science. The use of such studies has become especially prevalent following the widespread development of herbicide resistant weeds. In the past, analyses of dose-response studies have utilized various types of transformations and equations which can be validated with several statistical techniques. Most dose-response analysis methods 1) do not accurately describe data at the extremes of doses and 2) do not provide a proper statistical test for the difference(s) between two or more dose-response curves. Consequently, results of dose-response studies are analyzed and reported in a great variety of ways, and comparison of results among various researchers is not possible. The objective of this paper is to review the principles involved in dose-response research and explain the log-logistic analysis of herbicide dose-response relationships. In this paper the log-logistic model is illustrated using a nonlinear computer analysis of experimental data. The log-logistic model is an appropriate method for analyzing most dose-response studies. This model has been used widely and successfully in weed science for many years in Europe. The log-logistic model possesses several clear advantages over other analysis methods and the authors suggest that it should be widely adopted as a standard herbicide dose-response analysis method.
