<div> <div> <div> <p>In the present work we have investigated the possibility of using the Quantum Thermal Bath (QTB) method in molecular simulations of unimolecular dissociation processes. Notably, QTB is aimed in introducing quantum nuclear effects with a com- putational time which is basically the same as in newtonian simulations. At this end we have considered the model fragmentation of CH4 for which an analytical function is present in the literature. Moreover, based on the same model a microcanonical algorithm which monitor zero-point energy of products, and eventually modifies tra- jectories, was recently proposed. We have thus compared classical and quantum rate constant with these different models. QTB seems to correctly reproduce some quantum features, in particular the difference between classical and quantum activation energies, making it a promising method to study unimolecular fragmentation of much complex systems with molecular simulations. The role of QTB thermostat on rotational degrees of freedom is also analyzed and discussed. </p> </div> </div> </div>

Multiple Degrees Of Freedom

This article presents a simple procedure for predicting time-domain vibrational behaviors of a multiple degrees of freedom mechanical system with dry friction. The system equations of motion are discretized by means of the implicit Bozzak–Newmark integration scheme. At each time step, the discontinuous frictional force problem involving both the equality and inequality constraints is successfully reduced to a quadratic mathematical problem or the linear complementary problem with the introduction of non-negative and complementary variable pairs (supremum velocities and slack forces). The so-obtained complementary equations in the complementary pairs can be solved efficiently using the Lemke algorithm. Results for several single degree of freedom and multiple degrees of freedom problems with one-dimensional frictional constraints and the classical Coulomb frictional model are obtained using the proposed procedure and compared with those obtained using other approaches. The proposed procedure is found to be accurate, efficient, and robust in solving non-smooth vibration problems of multiple degrees of freedom systems with dry friction. The proposed procedure can also be applied to systems with two-dimensional frictional constraints and more sophisticated frictional models.

Simulation Results

High-dynamic flight simulator (HDFS), using a centrifuge as its motion base, is a machine utilized for simulating the acceleration environment associated with modern advanced tactical aircrafts. This paper models the HDFS as a robotic system with three rotational degrees of freedom. The forward and inverse dynamic formulations are carried out by the recursive Newton-Euler approach. The driving torques acting on the joints are determined on the basis of the inverse dynamic formulation. The formulation has been implemented in two numerical simulation examples, which are used for calculating the maximum torques of actuators and simulating the time-histories of kinematic and dynamic parameters of pure trapezoid Gz-load command profiles, respectively. The simulation results can be applied to the design of the control system. The dynamic modeling approach presented in this paper can also be generalized to some similar devices.

A nonlinear model for the dynamic behavior of tubular beams such as marine risers, pipelines, legs of tension leg platforms, and drill strings is developed. The formulation includes three translational degrees of freedom of the riser cross section and three rotational degrees of freedom for shear and torsion. Nonlinear constitutive equations for cross sections of unequal principal stiffnesses and extensible material are derived. Initial structural imperfections which are inherent in long risers are modeled in the form of initial curvature and geometric torsion which do not induce strains. The inertia forces due to the motion of the riser and internal fluid motions are formulated. The external hydrodynamic and hydrostatic forces are integrated on the riser surface as pressure and traction forces. The model is a comprehensive consistent nonlinear formulation of the riser dynamics and can be used for evaluation of the significance of nonlinear effects.

Abstract An analytical method is presented for locating all velocity instantaneous centers of linkage mechanisms with single or multiple degrees of freedom. The method is based on the fact that the coefficient matrix of the derived velocity equations for vector loops, independent inputs, and instantaneous centers is singular. This approach also works for special cases with kinematic indeterminacy or singular configurations.
