Design of Mechanical Band-Pass Filters for Energy Scavenging: Multi-Degree-of-Freedom ModelsSAGE Publications - Tập 14 Số 5 - Trang 753-768 - 2008
S.M. Shahruz
In this article, a model of a mechanical band-pass filter to be used in energy scavengers is studied. The filter is an ensemble of cantilever beams where at the tip of each beam a mass, known as the proof mass, is mounted. A beam with a proof mass at its tip is called a beam-mass system. The dynamics of a beam-mass system can be represented by its corresponding generalized single-degree-o...... hiện toàn bộ
Non-linear Systems Under Poisson White Noise Handled by Path Integral SolutionSAGE Publications - Tập 14 Số 1-2 - Trang 35-49 - 2008
Mario Di Paola, Roberta Santoro
An extension of the path integral to non-linear systems driven by a Poissonian white noise process is presented. It is shown that at the limit when the time increment becomes infinitesimal the Kolmogorov— Feller equation is fully restored. Applications to linear and non-linear systems with different distribution of the Dirac's deltas occurrences are performed and results are compared with...... hiện toàn bộ
Iteration Perturbation Method for Strongly Nonlinear OscillationsSAGE Publications - 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
Application of high-resolution spectral analysis for identifying faults in induction motors by means of soundSAGE Publications - Tập 18 Số 11 - Trang 1585-1594 - 2012
Arturo García-Pérez, René de Jesús Romero-Troncoso, Eduardo Cabal‐Yépez, Roque A. Osornio‐Rios, Jose A Lucio-Martinez
Induction motors are critical components for most industries. Induction motor failures may yield an unexpected interruption at the industry plant. Several conventional vibration and current analysis techniques exist by which certain faults in rotating machinery can be identified. Ever since the first motor was built, plant personnel have listened to the noises emanating from machines; wit...... hiện toàn bộ
Vortex-induced vibration analysis of viscoelastically mounted rigid circular cylinders in cross-flow at a moderate Reynolds numberSAGE Publications - Tập 24 Số 13 - Trang 2688-2700 - 2018
Antônio Marcos Gonçalves de Lima, Bruno Sousa Carneiro da Cunha, A.R. da Silva, Luiz Fernando Ferreira Rodovalho
The vortex-induced vibrations may have disastrous effects in engineering practice, affecting significantly the durability, reliability and safety of engineering structures. This is a reason for which a great deal of effort has been dedicated to the proposition of control strategies to deal with the vortex-induced vibration problem. However, few works have proposed the use of viscoelastic ...... hiện toàn bộ
Identification of crack location and crack size in a simply supported beam by measurement of natural frequenciesSAGE Publications - Tập 18 Số 2 - Trang 183-190 - 2012
Farook Sayyad, Bimlesh Kumar
In this paper, theoretical and experimental analysis of a vibrating, simply supported beam with a crack is carried out. This method is used to address the inverse problem of assessing the crack location and crack size in various beam structures. The method is based on measurement of natural frequencies, which are of global parameter and can be easily measured from any point on the structu...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling the Cardiac Tissue Electrode Interface Using Fractional CalculusSAGE Publications - 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
The dynamic reliability analysis of pipe conveying fluid based on a refined response surface methodSAGE Publications - Tập 21 Số 4 - Trang 790-800 - 2015
Hongbo Zhai, Ziyan Wu, Yongshou Liu, Zhufeng Yue
The dynamic reliability of the pipe conveying fluid was analyzed by a refined response surface method (RSM) in this study. In the refined RSM, a new response surface expression was proposed based on functional variables with the physical characteristics of basic random variables. The sampling points were located on Gauss Hermite integration points along the coordinate axes of standard nor...... hiện toàn bộ
Dynamic stiffness formulation for a micro beam using Timoshenko–Ehrenfest and modified couple stress theories with applicationsSAGE Publications - Tập 29 Số 1-2 - Trang 428-439 - 2023
J.R. Banerjee, S. О. Papkov, Thuc P. Vo, Isaac Elishakoff
Several models within the framework of continuum mechanics have been proposed over the years to solve the free vibration problem of micro beams. Foremost amongst these are those based on non-local elasticity, classical couple stress, gradient elasticity and modified couple stress theories. Many of these models retain the basic features of the Bernoulli–Euler or Timoshenko–Ehrenfest theori...... hiện toàn bộ
A state-of-the-art review of structural control systemsSAGE Publications - 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
