In order to increase the rotational speed of an ultrasonic motor using a flexural traveling wave, slits made on the surface of the stator are very effective. In this paper the projections made by the slits are called ""sub-reeds"" for convenience. Though the sub-reeds play important roles in an ultrasonic motor, their dimensions are generally decided through trial and error. This paper presents the optimum design method of a sub-reed by using elastic vibration analysis. This method calculates the dimensions of the sub-reed of which resonant frequency is same as that of the basic disc. This paper also shows that the resonance of the sub-reed mainly causes the magnification of the amplitude by using finite element analysis. The optimum design method and the mechanism of the magnification mentioned above are confirmed by experiments.

AbstractAs a new type of motor, the traveling wave type rotary ultrasonic motors (TRUM) have a wide range of applications. However, the friction between stator and rotor leads to its poor start reliability, which retards the progress of application of ultrasonic motors. Sometimes TRUMs which are widely used cannot start after storage. Height of tooth of the ultrasonic motor’s stator is one of the factors affecting TRUM’s start stabilizing. In this paper, combined with the ultrasonic motor running mechanism, the factors that affect TRUM’s start reliability are studied. Model of ultrasonic motor stator tooth height is analyzed by finite element analysis (FEA). Five TRUMs with different tooth heights are fabricated and measured. A TRUM with 1.85 mm tooth height can start properly in humidity 90%, but ultrasonic motors with 1.8–1.9 mm tooth height cannot start properly under the same conditions.

The use of finite element theory and modal analysis theory, the structure of the machine static and dynamic performance analysis and prediction using optimal design method for optimization, the new machine to improve job performance, improve processing accuracy, shorten the development cycle and enhance the competitiveness of products is very important. Selected for three-dimensional CAD modeling software-UG NX4.0 and finite element analysis software-ANSYS to set up the structure of the beam finite element model, and then post on the overall structure of the static and dynamic characteristic analysis, on the basis of optimized static and dynamic performance is more superior double wall structure of the beam. And by changing the wall thickness and the thickness of the inner wall, as well as the reinforcement plate thickness overall sensitivity analysis shows that changes in these three parameters on the dynamic characteristics of post impact. Application of topology optimization methods, determine the optimal structure of the beam ultimately.

Abstract This paper reports on the application of Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) technique in vibration measurement of turbine blading. Using the time-averaged mode of ESPI, the first six modes of a turbocharger blade with airfoil profile were identified. The effect of the complicated profile of the blade was established by studying simplified model blades. Coupled modes were identified and successfully separated. Experimental results are compared with those obtained using finite element analysis.

Abstract In this paper, a new rotating standing wave ultrasonic motor with multiple driving teeth is proposed. Using the method of adding additional teeth, the correction of the B06 surface of the ultrasonic motor vibrator is expected, the design of the optimum position of the drive tooth is realized. At the same time, a method of reducing the stiffness of the rotor is proposed, and the flexibility is met, the integrated design of the rotor and the pressure device can be realized by removing the disc spring. The accuracy of the finite element analysis is verified by the vibration test of the prototype oscillator. The finite element analysis of the main structure parameters of the influence oscillator mode and natural frequency is carried out. It provides theoretical basis for the design and machining of vibration.

Small Wind Turbine

In this article, three small wind turbine blades of different materials were manufactured. Finite element analysis was carried out using finite element software ANSYS 14.5 on modeled blades of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics 4412 airfoil profile. From finite element analysis, first, two flap-wise natural frequencies and mode shapes of three different blades are obtained. Experimental vibration analysis of manufactured blades was carried out using fast Fourier transform analyzer to find the first two flap-wise natural frequencies. Finally, the results obtained from the finite element analysis and experimental test of three blades are compared. Based on vibration analysis, we found that the natural frequency of glass fiber reinforced plastic blade reinforced with aluminum sheet metal (small) strips increases compared with the remaining blades. An increase in the natural frequency indicates an increase in the stiffness of blade.
