Regula Falsi Method

Cam is a mechanical component that transforms circular motion to reciprocating motion by using mating component, called the follower. The principal aim of this work was to study and analyse the displacement of a cam-follower with Regula Falsi method and verify its input by using MATLAB and FORTRAN simulations. A study was conducted on angle of rotation and the displacement of the follower, which is equal to the radius of the cam given as transcendental equation to find the exact solution. The parameters such as initial guess, final guess, iteration counter and the desired displacement are involved in finding the angular displacement to the cam system in high speed rotation. The analysis was done using a computer programming that enables verification of the results obtained and ascertaining whether the inputs are correct or not for the displacement in cam follower system. The computer output showed results of the two data sets that yielded solutions and two that did not. The results revealed that the programme could be used to find the angular displacement corresponding to a given follower displacement for any cam; if the function CAMF is modified to include the appropriate radius function, r(x). The results further revealed that at a halve cycle of a rotating cam, which is equivalent to (x = 3.142 rad), is a solution that would provide the desired displacement of the follower (opening and closing of valves).

Squeeze Effect

In the present paper, the algorithm proposed by Giacopini et. al. [1], based on a mass-conserving formulation of the Reynolds equation using the concept of complementarity is suitably extended to include the effects of compressibility, piezoviscosity and shear-thinning on the lubricant properties. This improved algorithm is employed to analyse the performance of the lubricated small end and big end bearings of a connecting rod of a high performance motorbike engine. The application of the algorithm proposed to both the small end and the big end of a con-rod is challenging because of the different causes that sustain the hydrodynamic lubrication in the two cases. In the con-rod big end, the fluid film is mainly generated by the relative high speed rotation between the rod and the crankshaft. The relative speed between the two races forms a wedge of fluid that assures appropriate lubrication and avoids undesired direct contacts. On the contrary, at the con-rod small end the relative rotational speed is low and a complete rotation between the mating surfaces does not occurs since the con-rod only oscillates around its vertical axis. Thus, at every revolution of the crankshaft, there are two different moments in which the relative rotational speed between the con-rod and the piston pin is null. Therefore, the dominant effect in the lubrication is the squeeze caused by the high loads transmitted through the piston pin. In particular both combustion forces and inertial forces contribute to the squeeze effect. This work shows how the formulation developed by the authors is capable of predicting the performance of journal bearings in the unsteady regime, where cavitation and reformation occur several times. Moreover, the effects of the pressure and the shear rate on the density and on the viscosity of the lubricant are taken into account.

Tire dynamic balance detection plays an important part in tire quality detection area. This paper uses the two-sided balance method to obtain the unbalance of the tire. According to the engineering practice, builds kinetic model and then introduces the calculating principle and operating procedures. In order to accurately determine the influence coefficient, a calibration method without tire is put forward. Further more, this new method is able to eliminate the unbalance caused by non-quality factors to some extent. But this method is presented based on the relative position invariance of the upper rim and lower rim, even both of them are under high-speed rotation situation. Finally, the experimental data acquired from both of the two methods are compared. The calibration method without tire is proved to be more feasible, efficient and accurate.

A new composite polishing plate for polishing of CVD diamond films has been designed. The displacement and stress distributions of the high speed rotation polishing plate have been investigated due to centrifugal forces, and the polishing mechanism of super-high polishing has been analyzed by using X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy. The results showed that the displacements both in axial and radial increase with the increasing of the rotational speed. When the rotation speed reached to 1200 rad/s, the von Mises equivalent stress is about 242 MPa, which is safe for the composite polishing plate. Additional, the polishing mechanism is mainly the chemical reaction between carbon and titanium during the super-high speed polishing. At elevated temperature, the chemical reaction between oxygen and titanium, oxygen and carbon can also occur.
