The purpose of this study was to develop a model of the dynamic behavior of a hydraulic vehicle double-tube shock absorber. The model accounts for the effects of compressibility, valve stiction, inertia, etc. and can be suitable for use in the analyses on flow-induced pressure fluctuations in the device. The author highlights all major variables to influence the output of the shock absorber, and then proceeds by performing a series of simulations using the developed model. The model is demonstrated to operate well in the large amplitude and low frequency range as well as the small amplitude and high frequency excitation operation regimes. The results are presented in the form of time histories of pressures in each fluid volume of the damper, flow rates through the valves, piston rod acceleration and force. Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) graphs are presented, too, in order to identify major components of the pressure fluctuation phenomena in frequency domain.

In this paper, a two-dimensional numerical model is developed to investigate the effect of rail pad stiffness on the wheel/rail force in a slab track with harmonic irregularity. The model consists of a vehicle, nonlinear Hertz spring, rail, rail pad, concrete slab, resilient layer, concrete base, and subgrade. The rail is simulated using the Timoshenko beam element for considering the effects of high-frequency excitation produced by short-wave irregularity. The results obtained from the model are compared with those available in the literature and from the field to prove the validity of the model. Through a parametric study, the effect of variations in rail pad stiffness, vehicle speed, and harmonic irregularity on the wheel/rail force is investigated. For the slab track without any irregularity, the wheel/rail force is at maximum when the vehicle speed reaches the critical speed. As the rail pad stiffness increases, the critical speed increases. When the amplitude of irregularity is high, wheel jumping phenomenon may occur. In this situation, as the vehicle speed and rail pad stiffness are increased, the dynamic wheel/rail force is increased. In the low-frequency range, the wheel/rail force increases as the rail pad stiffness increases. In the high-frequency range, the wheel/rail force increases as the rail pad stiffness is decreased.

The experiment was carried out to study the low frequency surface waves due to the horizontal high frequency excitation. The feature of the phenomenon was that the big amplitude axisymmetric surface wave frequency was typically about 1/50 of the excitation frequency. The viscous effect of water was neglected as a first approximation in the earlier papers on this subject. In contrast, we found the viscosity was important to achieve the low frequency water wave with the cooperation of hundreds of "finger" waves. Photographs were taken with stroboscopic lighting and thereafter relevant quantitative results were obtained based on the measurements with Polytec Scanning Vibrometer PSV 400.

Magnetic Skyrmions

AbstractBloch and Neel magnetic skyrmions have been studied in systems of confined geometry (nanodots, a linear array of nanodots). The spectra of low- and high-frequency excitation modes of a skyrmion state have been calculated. It has been shown that skyrmion spectrum asymmetry, namely, the characteristic difference between the frequencies of the azimuthal modes of the azimuthal skyrmion modes rotating clockwise and counterclockwise, is associated with asymmetry in the magnetization profiles of high-frequency spin waves propagating on the background of a skyrmion state in a nanodot. The low-frequency spectrum contains the only gyrotropic mode localized near the center of a nanodot. The gyrotropic frequency depends on the material parameters of a nanodot and the size of a skyrmion. The eigenfrequency of the gyrotropic mode of an isolated skyrmion in a nanodot in ultrathin films ( L ~ 1 nm) does not depend on the internal structure of a skyrmion and is the same for Bloch and Neel skyrmions. The interaction of skyrmions, in particular, in a linear chain of nanodots with the ground skyrmion state, leads to distinctions in low-frequency spectra. The structure of a skyrmion (of Bloch or Neel type) is exhibited as a shift of dispersion curves and a difference between the frequencies of ferromagnetic resonance in a system of interacting skyrmions.

A perspective of the mechanisms by which energy is transferred from high- to low-frequency modes is presented. The focus is on some recent experiments that reveal how a low-amplitude high-frequency excitation can produce a large-amplitude low-frequency response. Such a phenomenon is potentially harmful, if not catastrophic. Specifically, these experiments clarify the role of internal resonances, combination external and parametric resonances, and the interactions among modes of widely spaced frequencies.

The optic nerve head (ONH) is the site of insult in glaucoma, the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. Intraocular pressure (IOP) is commonly regarded as a major factor in the onset and progression of the disease1 and lowering IOP is the only clinical treatment that has been shown to retard the onset and progression of glaucoma2. However, many patients continue to progress even at an epidemiologically-determined normal level of IOP3. This suggests that in addition to the mean value of IOP, IOP fluctuations could be a factor in glaucomatous pathophysiology. The importance of low frequency fluctuations of clinically-measured mean IOP remains controversial. These studies all rely on snapshot measurements of mean IOP at each time point, and those measurements are taken at relatively infrequent intervals (hourly at the most frequent, but usually monthly or longer). Recently however, there has been some interest in ocular pulse amplitude, or the fluctuation in IOP associated with the cardiac cycle, which can be measured by Dynamic Contour Tonometry (DCT). DCT provides continuous measurement of IOP, but only for a period of tens of seconds in which a patient can tolerate corneal contact without blinking or eye movement, which ironically are two of the most common sources of large high frequency IOP fluctuations according to our telemetric data collected from monkeys4 and previous human studies. In a recent report, continuous IOP telemetry was used in three nonhuman primates to characterize IOP dynamics at multiple time scales for multiple 24-hour periods5.

The Fokker–Planck equation accurately describes AC magnetization dynamics of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). However, the model for describing AC magnetization dynamics of MNPs based on Fokker-Planck equation is very complicated and the numerical calculation of Fokker-Planck function is time consuming. In the stable stage of AC magnetization response, there are differences in the harmonic phase and amplitude between the stable magnetization response of MNPs described by Langevin and Fokker–Planck equation. Therefore, we proposed an empirical model for AC magnetization harmonics to compensate the attenuation of harmonics amplitude induced by a high frequency excitation field. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed model accurately describes the AC M–H curve. Moreover, we propose a harmonic amplitude–temperature model of a magnetic nanoparticle thermometer (MNPT) in a high-frequency excitation field. The simulation results show that the temperature error is less than 0.008 K in the temperature range 310–320 K. The proposed empirical model is expected to help improve MNPT performance.
