Dynamics and Control of Cranes: A Review Tập 9 Số 7 - Trang 863-908 - 2003
Eihab Abdel‐Rahman, Ali H. Nayfeh, Ziyad N. Masoud
We review crane models available in the literature, classify them, and discuss their applications and limitations. A generalized formulation of the most widely used crane model is analyzed using the method of multiple scales. We also review crane control strategies in the literature, classify them, and discuss their applications and limitations. In conclusion, we recommend appropriate mod...... hiện toàn bộ
A state-of-the-art review of structural control systems Tập 21 Số 5 - Trang 919-937 - 2015
Tarek Edrees Saaed, George Nikolakopoulos, Jan-Erik Jonasson, Hans Hedlund
The utilization of structural control systems for alleviating the responses of civil engineering structures, under the effects of different kinds of dynamics loadings, has become a standard technology, although there are still numerous research approaches for advancing the effectiveness of these methodologies. The aim of this article is to review the state-of-the-art technologies in struc...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling the Cardiac Tissue Electrode Interface Using Fractional Calculus Tập 14 Số 9-10 - Trang 1431-1442 - 2008
Richard L. Magin, Marc Ovadia
The tissue electrode interface is common to all forms of biopotential recording (e.g., ECG, EMG, EEG) and functional electrical stimulation (e.g., pacemaker, cochlear implant, deep brain stimulation). Conventional lumped element circuit models of electrodes can be extended by generalization of the order of differentiation through modification of the defining current-voltage relationships....... hiện toàn bộ
Analysis of the Van der Pol Oscillator Containing Derivatives of Fractional Order Tập 13 Số 9-10 - Trang 1291-1301 - 2007
Ramiro S. Barbosa, J. A. Tenreiro Machado, Blas M. Vinagre, Antonio José Calderón
In this paper a modified version of the classical Van der Pol oscillator is proposed, introducing fractional-order time derivatives into the state-space model. The resulting fractional-order Van der Pol oscillator is analyzed in the time and frequency domains, using phase portraits, spectral analysis and bifurcation diagrams. The fractional-order dynamics is illustrated through numerical ...... hiện toàn bộ
On the analytical and experimental assessment of the performance of a quasi-zero-stiffness isolator Tập 20 Số 15 - Trang 2314-2325 - 2014
Daolin Xu, Yueying Zhang, Jiaxi Zhou, Jingjun Lou
This paper presents a study of a quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) isolator. A unique relationship between the geometry configuration and the stiffness of the spring elements is obtained in order to design the property of high-static-low-dynamic stiffness. Analytical solutions of the nonlinear QZS system are derived with the harmonic balance method for the characteristic analysis of the force tr...... hiện toàn bộ
Command Shaping for Nonlinear Crane Dynamics Tập 16 Số 4 - Trang 477-501 - 2010
David Blackburn, William Singhose, James G. Kitchen, Vlad Patrangenaru, Jason Lawrence, Tatsuaki Kamoi, Ayako Taura
Motion-induced vibration can be greatly reduced by properly shaping the reference command. Input shaping is one type of reference shaping method that is based largely on linear superposition. In this paper we document the impact of nonlinear crane dynamics on the effectiveness of input shaping. As typical bridge cranes are driven using Cartesian motions, they behave nearly linearly for lo...... hiện toàn bộ
Iteration Perturbation Method for Strongly Nonlinear Oscillations Tập 7 Số 5 - Trang 631-642 - 2001
Ji‐Huan He
In this paper, the author proposes a new perturbation technique coupling with iteration method, yielding a powerful mathematical tool for an analytical solution of nonlinear equations. The obtained results are valid not only for weakly nonlinear problems but also for strongly nonlinear ones. Furthermore, the approximate solutions are valid for the whole solution domain, and even the first...... hiện toàn bộ
Frequency characteristics of a viscoelastic graphene nanoplatelet–reinforced composite circular microplate Tập 27 Số 1-2 - Trang 101-118 - 2021
Aria Ghabussi, Mostafa Habibi, Omid NoormohammadiArani, Aghil Shavalipour, Hossein Moayedi, Hamed Safarpour
This is the first research on the frequency analysis of a graphene nanoplatelet composite circular microplate in the framework of a numerical-based generalized differential quadrature method. Stresses and strains are obtained using the higher order shear deformation theory. The microstructure is surrounded by a viscoelastic foundation. Rule of the mixture is used to obtain varying mass de...... hiện toàn bộ
Frequency Response and Jump Avoidance in a Nonlinear Passive Engine Mount Tập 12 Số 11 - Trang 1205-1237 - 2006
Reza N. Jazar, Ryan W. Houim, A. Narimani, M. F. Golnaraghi
This paper explores a model for a nonlinear one-degree of freedom passive vibration isolator system, known as a smart engine mount. Nonlinearities are employed to analyze and possibly improve the behavior of the optimal linear mount. Nonlinear damping and stiffness rates of the isolator have interacting effects on the dynamic behavior of the mount. The frequency response of the system is ...... hiện toàn bộ
