In this lecture an analogy is described by means of which transmissions can be analysed and compared. Two important design parameters are the force density Δ and the effective volume V*, which can be used to analyse stationary and moving methods of transmission. With this analogy a tool is given to the designer to compare transmissions with regard to performance, controllability, size and weight, intensity of loading, dynamic properties. A beginning has been made with formulating a relation between the intensity of loading and wear phenomena (II). With this work we hope to have contributed to a sounder basis for the study and development of power transmissions and their use in machines. As mechanical, electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic power transmissions can be compared by means of this analogy, the selection of transmissions can be made on a sounder basis.

Recent suggestions for an improved model of heat transfer in living tissues emphasize the existence of a convective mode due to flowing blood in addition to, or even instead of, the perfusive mode, as proposed in Pennes’ “classic” bioheat equation. In view of these suggestions, it might be beneficial to develop a technique that will enable one to distinguish between these two modes of bioheat transfer. To this end, a concept that utilizes a multiprobe array of thermistors in conjunction with a revised bioheat transfer equation has been derived to distinguish between, and to quantify the perfusive and convective contribution of blood to heat transfer in living tissues. The array consists of two or more temperature sensors one of which also serves to locally insert a short pulse of heat into the tissue prior to the temperature measurements. A theoretical analysis shows that such a concept is feasible. The construction of the system involves the selection of several important design parameters, i.e., the distance between the probes, the heating power, and the pulse duration. The choice of these parameters is based on computer simulations of the actual experiment.

The thermal efficiencies of several thermodynamic cycles are evaluated and compared for the condition of maximum specific net work output for a specified cycle temperature ratio. It is shown at this condition that the efficiencies of all of the cycles are very similar and that an objective selection of a cycle for a particular application cannot be made on the basis of thermal efficiency alone. The different cycles are then compared with respect to other important design parameters for the optimized condition and comments are made with regard to power generation and the associated controlling rate processes.

The continuous development of computer technology has made it applicable in many scientific fields, including research into a wide range of processes in agricultural machines. It allows the simulation of very complex physical phenomena, including grain motion. A recently discovered discrete element method (DEM) is used for this purpose. It involves direct integration of equations of grain system motion under the action of various forces, the most important of which are contact forces. The method’s accuracy depends mainly on precisely developed mathematical models of contacts. The creation of such models requires empirical validation, an experiment that investigates the course of contact forces at the moment of the impact of the grains. To achieve this, specialised test stations equipped with force and speed sensors were developed. The correct selection of testing equipment and interpretation of results play a decisive role in this type of research. This paper focuses on the evaluation of the force sensor dynamic properties’ influence on the measurement accuracy of the course of the plant grain impact forces against a stiff surface. The issue was examined using the computer simulation method. A proprietary computer software with the main calculation module and data input procedures, which presents results in a graphic form, was used for calculations. From the simulation, graphs of the contact force and force signal from the sensor were obtained. This helped to clearly indicate the essence of the correct selection of parameters used in the tests of sensors, which should be characterised by high resonance frequency.

This paper presents issues related to the adaptive control of the drive system with an elastic clutch connecting the main motor and the load machine. Firstly, the problems and the main algorithms often implemented for the mentioned object are analyzed. Then, the control concept based on the RNN (recurrent neural network) for the drive system with the flexible coupling is thoroughly described. For this purpose, an adaptive model inspired by the Elman model is selected, which is related to internal feedback in the neural network. The indicated feature improves the processing of dynamic signals. During the design process, for the selection of constant coefficients of the controller, the PSO (particle swarm optimizer) is applied. Moreover, in order to obtain better dynamic properties and improve work in real conditions, one model based on the ADALINE (adaptive linear neuron) is introduced into the structure. Details of the algorithm used for the weights’ adaptation are presented (including stability analysis) to perform the shaft torque signal filtering. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is examined through simulation and experimental studies.

Dynamic behaviour of cable networks is highly dependent on the installation location, stiffness, and damping of cross-ties. Thus, these are the important design parameters for a cable network. While the effects of the former two on the network response have been investigated to some extent in the past, the impact of cross-tie damping has rarely been addressed. To comprehend our knowledge of mechanics associated with cable networks, in the current study, an analytical model of a cable network will be proposed by taking into account both cross-tie stiffness and damping. In addition, the damping property of main cables in the network will also be considered in the formulation. This would allow exploring not only the effectiveness of a cross-tie design on enhancing the in-plane stiffness of a constituted cable network, but also its energy dissipation capacity. The proposed analytical model will be applied to networks with different configurations. The influence of cross-tie stiffness and damping on the modal response of various types of networks will be investigated by using the corresponding undamped rigid cross-tie network as a reference base. Results will provide valuable information on the selection of cross-tie properties to achieve more effective cable vibration control.
