In this study, the sensitivity of MEMS gas bearing’ performance to the wear in different axial and circumferential positions is investigated in detail. Rarefaction effect is introduced into the transient and steady lubrication equation, and then the finite element method (FEM) is employed to solve the equations. The stochastic process is adopted to simulate wear distribution and view of probability is proposed to describe the change laws of the static and dynamic performance of the bearing. Then, the static and dynamic characteristics of the bearing in 50 wear conditions are calculated for each case. Furthermore, the standard deviations and correlation coefficients of the bearing performance sample points are analyzed to demonstrate the influence degree of wear in different positions.

A new prototype of 2-DOF micro-positional stage was designed based on parallel structure according to the following requirements of the stage, such as, symmetrical structures in X and Y directions, decoupling movement in X and Y directions, large operating surface, and more simple and compact structure. Using double flexible arched plate, the specified structure of the stage was designed by considering the realization of its movement. Static and dynamic characteristics of the stage have been analyzed by using the finite element method. For the static performance, there is a linear relationship between the displacement of the stage and its driving force. The maximum displacement of the stage is about 36 μm under the maximum force 650 N. For dynamic performance, the natural frequency and the response time of the stage are about 2.4 kHz and 1.4 ms, respectively.

The misalignment between the journal and the bearing in a rotor-bearing system may be due to manufacturing error, elastic deflection, thermal expansion etc. In the present work, the eight linearized stiffness and damping coefficients of the cylindrical and three lobe bearings are identified at different levels of bearing misalignment (twisting misalignment) and at different speeds of the rotor. The identification method used here needs FRFs (Frequency Response Functions) obtained by the measurements and the finite element method. The twisting misalignment changes the stiffness and damping coefficients in the vertical and horizontal directions. In the case of three lobe bearings, for 0.7 degree of misalignment, the stiffness in the vertical direction is increased by about 12 percent.

Angled-surface slot-compensated hydrostatic bearing (ASHB) is a novel type of hydrostatic bearing which is potentially applicable in rotary tables. However, it has not been sufficiently studied in available literature. In this paper the mathematic model for ASHB was built and solved by the finite element method (FEM). The influence of semicone angle on static and dynamic performance characteristics was theoretically investigated. The simulated results have been compared with that of the traditional fixed slot-compensated hydrostatic bearing (FSHB) on the same geometric and operating conditions. Results show that the performance of ASHB is better than that of FSHB; the studied bearing with a large semicone angle is superior in power consumption; the clearance width ratio of the restricting gap to the bearing gap has an obvious effect on bearing performance.

This paper proposes a design of aerostatic guideway with the porous restriction for the vertical guideway of form measuring instrument, and analyses the design principle of the guideway.The static and dynamic characteristics of the guideway of different structures were analyzed with the software based on the finite element method, and then the optimum design was obtained by comparing the deformation and natural frequency. Finally the design of the guideway was verified by theoretical calculation and practical test that the accuracy of its various performances fully met the design requirements. The guideway can be widely applied to the form measuring instrument and other precision measuring instruments.

This study utilizes the topology optimization with the finite element method and the simulated annealing algorithms to optimize the structure and the dynamic performance of a bike frame with dampers. Design domains, loadings and boundary conditions of bike frames are defined. Joint locations of a damper with the front and the rear frames and the joint location of the front and the rear frames are considered as design variables. The transient response and the acceleration of a bike on a sinusoid curved road surface are analyzed. Effects of the joint locations and the stiffness of frames on the dynamic performance are studied. The structural topology of frames and joint locations of a bike are recommended to improve the dynamic performance.

The hub-bearing assembly is one of the fundamental components of modern vehicles. A bad hub-bearing can cause phantom noises or ghost vibrations at sporadic points during the drive. In this paper, effects on the clearance of the bearing are investigated by both the analytical method and the Finite Element Method (FEM). It is found that the assembly process, the initial setting clearance, the rotating speed, the thermo-expansion contribute to the clearance of automotive hub bearing. The fundamental study is the basis for analyzing the dynamic performance and noise of the bearing. Also, it can be extended to optimize the assembly process.
