SUMMARYMechanical regulator-free bicycle robots have lighter weight and fewer actuators than the traditional regulator-based bicycle robots. In order to deal with the difficulty of maintaining balance for this kind of bicycle robot, we consider a front-wheel drive and mechanical regulator-free bicycle robot. We present the methodologies for realizing the robot's ultra-low-speed track-stand motion, moderate-speed circular motion and high-speed rectilinear motion. A simplified dynamics of the robot is developed using three independent velocities. From the dynamics, we suggest there may be an underactuated rolling angle in the system. Our balancing strategies are inspired by human riders' experience, and our control rules are based on the bicycle system's underactuated dynamics. In the case of track-stand and circular motion, we linearize the frame's rolling angle and configure the robot to maintain balance by the front-wheel's motion with a fixed front-bar turning angle. In the case of the rectilinear motion, we linearize both front-bar steering angle and front-wheel rotating angle, and configure the system to maintain balance by the front-bar's turning with a constant front-wheel rotating rate. Numerical simulations and physical experiments are given together to validate the effectiveness of our control strategies in realizing the robot's proposed three motions.

Through the study of regular polygon cross section continuous forming processing technology of rotary cutting machine, this article designed a profiled bar turning peeling machine. This machine is mainly composed of workpiece axis, cutter axis, feed device and pulling device, etc . Parallel mounted, workpiece axis and cutter axis rotate at a rotational speed ratio in the same direction so as to form complex turning motions, during which the cutting track of the knifepoint relative to workpiece axis forms a shape of approximate linear closed curve, at the same time, feed device and pulling device pull workpiece moving along the axis, through which this machine can complete a turning finish of a whole workpiece at a time. This article analyzed the turning peeling principle of profiled bar, established a motion trajectory equation for the knifepoint relative to the workpiece axis, analyzed the processing straightness error of turned profiled bar, and then derived the error calculation formula.

Accurate predictive modeling is an essential prerequisite for optimization and control of production in modern manufacturing environments. For slender bar turning operations, dimensional deviation is one of the most important product quality characteristics due to the low stiffness of part. In this study, radial basis function neural network is employed to investigate dimensional errors in slender bar turning. The relationship between cutting parameters and dimensional errors is firstly described by the proposed model. Simulation is provided to investigate the effects of cutting parameters on dimensional errors. Further, real-time predictive model based on radial basis function neural network is developed to perform the dimensional error monitoring during slender bar turning process. Experiments verify that the proposed in-process predictive system has the ability to monitor efficiently dimensional errors within the range that they have been trained.

High speed machining (HSM) is finding wider applications due to its economic advantages, such as faster material removal rates, and its technological merits, such as improved surface finish. Nevertheless, the application of HSM also brings about some undesirable results. For example, the tool life and surface integrity of a machined component are greatly affected by the large amount of heat generated, but heat dissipation during an HSM has not been well understood. This paper aims to achieve a quantitative understanding of the heat dissipation in HSM using a bar turning configuration. Based on the calorimetric method and utilizing water as the heat transfer medium, the temperature rise in water was measured to determine the fractions of heat dissipated into the chips, the tool and the workpiece during machining. The obtained results show that the chips take the largest portion of the heat generated and this fraction increases with the increase in feed.

Computer simulation of industrial processes is an important alternative that may be used either to complement or to replace expensive experimental procedures associated with developing new parts or modifying existing process. For a metal cutting process, numerical simulations provide vital information about cutting forces, cutting temperatures, tooling and part distortion, etc. Since the early 1970s, FEA has been applied to simulate machining process. The development of this approach, its assumptions and techniques has been widely accepted. Nowadays, the manufacturing productivity even drives the community to the next level innovation through computer utilizations. A kinematic simulation of machining processes is one of many innovative CAE applications, especially beneficial to high volume production of automotive powertrain parts. In this paper, a generic force calculation method is introduced with a modified horsepower correction factor. An example of sizing milling force, milling paths and proper milling parameters is provided by utilizing the methodology. This paper will also discuss and propose how the manufacturing industry uses this resourceful tool. Applications of the methodology would empower product and manufacturing engineers to make intelligent and cost effective decisions.
