For improving the performance of an electromagnetic isolation system with reasonable parameters and avoid the parameter tuning problem of a PID controller, an active control method is put forward based on equivalent stiffness and damping coefficient. In this paper, the range of equivalent stiffness coefficient and damping coefficient of the electromagnetic force are calculated based on the required range of dynamic performance indexes. According to the nonlinear expression between electromagnetic force and coil current and gap, the relationships between the coil current and equivalent stiffness coefficient and damping coefficient are established. Then, the equivalent stiffness coefficient and damping coefficient can be satisfied by the controlled current in different gaps for meeting the required dynamic performance indexes. For reducing the maximum overshoot and the number of oscillations of the system, the active control method with the piecewise equivalent stiffness and damping coefficient is proposed based on the piecewise control strategy to realize the variable control parameters of the isolation system. Simulation and experimental results verify that the control method based on the equivalent stiffness and damping coefficient can obtain the desired dynamic performance indexes and the proposed control method with the piecewise strategy can not only reduce the setting time of the system, but also ensure the stability of the system.

This paper presents an experimental study on dynamic performance of China Railway Track System (CRTS) series track systems using a full-scale test rig. The test rig has been constructed based on 55.17 m long full-scale nonballasted tracks composed of four typical CRTS track elements in high-speed railways. First, the dynamic characteristics of different nonballasted tracks are investigated by conducting wheel-drop tests, where a wheel-drop testing vehicle with a dropping wheelset is devised to provide the wheel-drop load. The vibration levels of different track systems are assessed by the root-mean-square acceleration per one-third octave band, and the vibration transmission characteristics of the CRTS series tracks are evaluated by transfer functions. Further, a mathematical track model is used to extract the dynamic stiffness and damping coefficient of the four types of nonballasted track systems based on the wheel–rail impact response. The vibration characteristics, the dynamic stiffness, and damping coefficient of different nonballasted track systems under various wheel-drop heights are compared and discussed in detail.

Experimental and modeling techniques for belt longitudinal static stiffness, longitudinal dynamic stiffness and damping coefficient, bending stiffness, and friction coefficient between a pulley and a belt are presented. Two methods for measuring longitudinal dynamic stiffness and damping coefficient of a belt are used, and the experimental results are compared. Experimental results show that the longitudinal dynamic stiffness of a belt is dependent on belt length, pretension, excitation amplitude and excitation frequency, and the damping coefficient of a belt is dependent on excitation frequency. Two models are presented to model the dependence of longitudinal dynamic stiffness and damping coefficient of a belt on belt length, pretension, excitation amplitude and excitation frequency. The proposed model is validated by comparing the estimated dynamic stiffness and damping with the experiment data. Also, the measurements of belt bending stiffness are carried out and the influences of the belt length on the belt bending stiffness are investigated. One test rig for measuring friction coefficient between a pulley and a belt are designed and fabricated, and the friction coefficient between the groove side belt with the groove side pulley, and the flat side belt with a flat pulley is measured with the test rig. The influences of wrap angle between pulley and belt, pretension of belt and rotational speed of the pulley on the friction coefficient are measured and analyzed. Taking an engine front end accessory drive system (FEAD) as the research example for the accessory drive system, experimental methods and the static and dynamic characteristics for the FEAD with seven pulleys, a tensioner, and a serpentine belt are presented.

Take the force feedback handle applied to the teleoperation of space robotic arm as a requirement. In order to improve users’ experience, we studied the automatic reset force of the handle. This paper proposes a springdamping model and applies it to the torque output of the motor to achieve a good reset of the handle, which is a new development of the application field of the automatic reset force model of the force feedback device. The experiment shows that the automatic reset force model has high accuracy when the handle returns to zero. In addition, through dynamic and reasonable adjustment of the stiffness coefficient and damping coefficient, it can meet the needs of different users for the automatic reset force of the force feedback handle.

With increasing need for high-speed, high-temperature, and oil-free turbomachinery, gas foil bearings (GFBs) have been considered to be the best substitutes for traditional oil-lubricated bearings. A multi-cantilever foil bearing (MCFB), a novel GFB with multi-cantilever foil strips serving as the compliant underlying structure, was designed, fabricated, and tested. A series of static and dynamic load tests were conducted to measure the structural stiffness and equivalent viscous damping of the prototype MCFB. Experiments of static load versus deflection showed that the proposed bearing has a large mechanical energy dissipation capability and a pronounced nonlinear static stiffness that can prevents overly large motion amplitude of journal. Dynamic load tests evaluated the influence of motion amplitude, loading orientation and misalignment on the dynamic stiffness and equivalent viscous damping with respect to excitation frequency. The test results demonstrated that the dynamic stiffness and damping are strongly dependent on the excitation frequency. Three motion amplitudes were applied to the bearing housing to investigate the effects of motion amplitude on the dynamic characteristics. It is noted that the bearing dynamic stiffness and damping decreases with incrementally increasing motion amplitudes. A high level of misalignment can lead to larger static and dynamic bearing stiffness as well as to larger equivalent viscous damping. With dynamic loads applied to two orientations in the bearing midplane separately, the dynamic stiffness increases rapidly and the equivalent viscous damping declines slightly. These results indicate that the loading orientation is a non-negligible factor on the dynamic characteristics of MCFBs.

This paper describes a combined theoretical and experimental investigation of the eight oil film stiffness and damping coefficients for a novel low impedance hydrodynamic bearing. The novel design incorporates a recess in the bearing surface which is connected to a standard commercial gas bag accumulator; this arrangement reduces the oil film dynamic stiffness and leads to improved machine response and stability. A finite difference method was used to solve Reynolds equation and yield the pressure distribution in the bearing oil film. Integration of the pressure profile then enabled the fluid film forces to be evaluated. A perturbation technique was used to determine the dynamic pressure components, and hence to determine the eight oil film stiffness and damping coefficients. Experimental data was obtained from a laboratory test rig in which a test bearing, floating on a rotating shaft, was excited by a multi-frequency force signal. Measurements of the resulting relative movement between bearing and journal enabled the oil film coefficients to be measured. The results of the work show good agreement between theoretical and experimental data, and indicate that the oil film impedance of the novel design is considerably lower than that of a conventional bearing.

This study has theoretically analyzed the surface roughness, centripetal inertia and recess volume fluid compressibility effects on the dynamic behavior of a restrictor compensated hydrostatic thrust spherical clearance type of bearing. The stochastic Reynolds equation, with centripetal inertia effect, and the recess flow continuity equation with recess volume fluid compressibility effect have been derived to take into account the presence of roughness on the bearing surfaces. On the basis of a small perturbations method, the dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients have been evaluated. In addition to the usual bearing design parameters the results for the dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients have been calculated for various frequencies of vibrations or squeeze parameter (frequency parameter) and recess volume fluid compressibility parameter. The study shows that both of the surface roughness and the centripetal inertia have slight effects on the stiffness coefficient and remarkable effects on the damping coefficient while the recess volume fluid compressibility parameter has the major effect on the bearing dynamic characteristics. The cross dynamic stiffness showed the bearing self-aligning property and the ability to oppose whirl movements. The orifice restrictor showed better dynamic performance than that of the capillary tube.

A constitutive equation of the differential type is introduced to model the nonlinear viscoelastic response behavior of elastomeric bearings in large-scale system simulations for vibration assessment and component loads prediction. The model accounts for the nonlinear dependence of dynamic stiffness and damping on vibration amplitude commonly observed in the behavior of bearings made of particle-reinforced elastomers. A testing procedure for the identification of the model parameters from bearing component test data is described. The experimental and analytical results for predicting the behavior of four (4) different car bushings are presented. In an example application, the model is incorporated in an ADAMS simulation to study the dynamic behavior of a car rear suspension.
