Abstract This paper presents the dynamic modeling and control of a bi-modal, multirotor vehicle that is capable of omnidirectional terrestrial rolling and multirotor flight. It focuses on the theoretical development of a terrestrial dynamic model and control systems, with experimental validation. The vehicle under consideration may roll along the ground to conserve power and extend endurance but may also fly to provide high mobility and maneuverability when necessary. The vehicle employs a three-axis gimbal system that decouples the rotor orientation from the vehicle's terrestrial rolling motion. A dynamic model of the vehicle's terrestrial motion is derived from first principles. The dynamic model becomes the basis for a nonlinear trajectory tracking control system suited to the architecture of the vehicle. The vehicle is over-actuated while rolling, and the additional degrees of actuation can be used to accomplish auxiliary objectives, such as power optimization and gimbal lock avoidance. Experiments with a hardware vehicle demonstrate the efficacy of the trajectory tracking control system.

Wavelet transform was utilized in vibrant signal processing of air suspension system. A dynamic model of 1/4 engineering vehicle with air suspension system was established. Road surface signal of B grade was input to the dynamic model. Vibrant acceleration curve of under spring mass and dynamic load curve of air suspension was gained. Noise signal of under spring mass acceleration and dynamic load of air suspension system were filtrated by wavelet decomposition. Vibrant acceleration signal of under spring mass and dynamic load signal of air suspension were extracted by wavelet reconstruction. It can provide a theoretical foundation for identifying dynamic load of air suspension system.

The paper deals with buckling and strength analysis of suspension system rods made of carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminate. The whole suspension system of urban solar vehicle, Eagle Two, designed by Lodz University of Technology students was considered. The calculations and analysis focused on suspension rods, where the traditional metal material was replaced with CFRP laminate. The influence of layer arrangement on rod strength, static, and dynamic buckling were analysed. The research was conducted using numerical simulations employing finite element method software. The static and dynamic load was considered. The obtained results show that the plies’ order in the laminate influences both the strength and stiffness of the considered rod. The best results considering both failure force and longitudinal elasticity modulus were obtained for the stacking sequences with axially oriented (0°) plies on the outside of the rod.

Tunnel Boring Machine always works in the changeable geologies with multiple drivers, which leads to severe vibration of the TBM main drive system and key component failures. The vibration characteristics of TBM under different working conditions and the vibration reduction analysis have important meanings. First of all, by considering the time-varying random loads of the cutters, the contact force of the gears, the stiffness of the main bearing, and the stiffness of the cylinders, a mechanical-hydraulic coupling nonlinear dynamic model of the TBM main drive system was built according to the assembly relationship and load transmission path of the main drive system. Secondly, the dynamic model of the TBM main drive system is verified by comparing the theoretical vibration with the real vibration of the TBM main drive system. The error of the vibration acceleration is 10% to 30%. Three typical loads are defined under typical working conditions, and the vibrations of the TBM main drive system under three typical loads were analyzed. Finally, the sensitivity analysis of the cylinder damping shows that the damping at the position of the propulsion cylinder has a great influence on the vibration of the TBM main drive system. The results show that when the damping coefficient is 2.5 × 106 N·s/m, the maximum reduction of axial acceleration of cutterhead is 0.64 g, and that of the main beam front section is 0.55 g. The variable damping coefficient vibration reduction strategies under three typical loads are verified.

A novel drive system the Dual Motors Coupling Propulsion (DMCP) for battery electric buses was proposed, and its structure and working principle were introduced. For the power and comfort performance of the vehicle, the control method of the motors and the coordinated control strategy of the DMCP were developed. The co-simulation platform of AMESim and Simulink was established, based on which the dynamic model of the vehicle equipped the DMCP was built. The simulation results show that the DMCP runs smoothly in the Chinese typical city bus driving schedule. This indicates that the control strategy can manipulate the DMCP to drive the bus powerfully and smoothly. This has laid the foundation of the further research of the DMCP.

Purpose. The establishment of the essence of many dynamic phenomena and the prediction of peak loads, both during the design or reconstruction stages of HPT mills and their operation using advanced calculation methods remain relevant. Methodology. An engineering technique to simplify a developed dynamic model is proposed, which includes the combination and development of known techniques. In addition, active mechanical connections in the original dynamic model of an HPT mill are identified, causing the pronounced parametric processes in the system under study. Findings. The study of the dynamics of simplified two-mass models of the HPT mill with combined parameters and periodically changing mass characteristics has been carried out. A differential equation of parametric oscillations in the drive power line has been compiled. The solution to the differential equation allows us to estimate the dynamic displacements of the considered drive of the working stand of the HPT mill for the most common modes of vibration of the mechanical system. Since the differential equations (8) are present in the formulation of the basic Cauchy problem, we implement the solution numerically, using the Runge - Kut method in the medium of a standard software product, for the most common first form of oscillations of a mechanical system. Originality. Dynamic features of the operation of the drive of the working stand of the HPT mill are presented in the form of angular displacements of the drive shaft of the mechanical system. The dynamics of the drive drive of the working stand of the HPT, 32-3 mill are calculated (pipe rolling along the route 38×3.8 → 19.1×2.1, material – steel Х18Н10Т). Practical value. The causes of the appearance of parametric oscillations in the drive system are identified and dynamic instability zones of the mechanical drive system of the HPT mill is installed, which allows for the selection of optimal rolling conditions at the design stage of technological processes. Keywords: cold rolling, pipe, mill, power line, main drive, dynamic model, simplified design scheme, mathematical model, parametric oscillations, differential equation, angular oscillations, dynamic instability.

Abstract The study presents the issue of kinematic discrepancy of hydrostatic drive systems of high mobility vehicles, and its impact on the presence of the unfavourable phenomenon of circulating power. Furthermore, it presents a theoretical discussion concerning the capacity of the compensation of kinematic discrepancy by a hydrostatic drive system on the basis of tests using static characteristics.
