应用Winkler弹性基础模型的间隙铰接副磨损预测

间隙铰接副磨损与机构动力学之间存在交互耦合作用.通过Winkler弹性基础模型既可表达铰接副共形接触反力用于构建多体力学方程,又可得到界面接触压力分布用于磨损计算,从而可获得较Hertz理论对共形接触问题更好的计算准确度,且避免有限元方法计算接触压力分布导致的计算耗时性.以曲柄滑块机构为例的分析和实验结果表明:虽然有限元方法可得到更高的磨损预测精度,但Winkler模型对微间隙铰接副磨损预测具有可接受的精度和更好的计算效率,从而可为含间隙铰接副机械系统摩擦学设计提供简便的算法.

氧化铜作为铜的固体润滑剂时的膜厚效应

在较宽的负荷、速度和温度范围内在栓-盘试验机上对铜表面进行了滑动试验,测定了摩擦、磨损和表面粗糙度。试验表明存在着高摩擦磨损,低摩擦磨损及其过渡状态。根据在滑动表面上氧化铜层的连续形成和去除导出了一个定量模式,由此可以预料,只有在金属平面上氧化层的形成速率大于磨损去除速率的情况下才能得到低的摩擦磨损,否则将产生某些金属与金属的接触,摩擦磨损会相应增大。该模式的预测与试验数据相当一致。也与以前在升高温度下铜滑动表面的摩擦转移数据相符合。

Investigation on effect of joint clearance on dynamics of four-bar mechanism

As a result of design, manufacturing and assembly processes or a wear effect, clearances are inevitable at the joints of mechanisms. In this study, dynamic response of mechanism having revolute joints with clearance is investigated. A four-bar mechanism having two joints with clearance is considered as a model mechanism. A neural network was used to model several characteristics of joint clearance. Kinematic and dynamic analyses were achieved using continuous contact mode between journal and bearing. A genetic algorithm was also used to determine the appropriate values of design variables for reducing the additional vibration effect due primarily to the joint clearance. The results show that the optimal adjusting of suitable design variables gives a certain decrease in shaking forces and their moments on the mechanism frame.     

Modeling 3D revolute joint with clearance and contact stiffness

The clearances in the kinematic joints are due to deformations, wear, and manufacturing errors; the accurate modeling of these effects in multibody analysis is a complex issue but in many practical applications, it is mandatory to take into them into account in order to understand the actual behavior of mechanical systems. In this paper, the authors present a general computer-aided model of a 3D revolute joint with clearance suitable for implementation in multibody dynamic solvers. While a perfect revolute joint imposes kinematic constraints, the proposed revolute joint with clearance leads to a force constraint. The revolute joint has been modeled by introducing a nonlinear equivalent force system, which takes into account the contact elastic deformations. The model depends on the structural and geometrical properties of materials in contact that have been investigated using finite element models. The purpose is to give a general approach to study the influence of actual joints on kinematic, dynamic, and structural behavior of mechanisms. The proposed model has been applied in dynamic simulations of a spatial slider-crank mechanism.     

Study of the effect of contact force model on the dynamic response of mechanical systems with dry clearance joints: computational and experimental approaches

The main objective of this work is to present a computational and experimental study on the contact forces developed in revolute clearance joints. For this purpose, a well-known slider-crank mechanism with a revolute clearance joint between the connecting rod and slider is utilized. The intra-joint contact forces that are generated at these clearance joints are computed by considering several different elastic and dissipative approaches, namely those based on the Hertz contact theory and the ESDU tribology-based cylindrical contacts, along with a hysteresis-type dissipative damping. The normal contact force is augmented with the dry Coulomb’s friction force. In addition, an experimental apparatus is used to obtained some experimental data in order to verify and validate the computational models. From the outcomes reported in this paper, it is concluded that the selection of the appropriate contact force model with proper dissipative damping plays a significant role in the dynamic response of mechanical systems involving contact events at low or moderate impact velocities.     

Simulation of planar flexible multibody systems with clearance and lubricated revolute joints

Modeling of clearance joints plays an important role in the analysis and design of multibody mechanical systems. Based on the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF), a new computational methodology for modeling and analysis of planar flexible multibody systems with clearance and lubricated revolute joints is presented. A planar absolute nodal coordinate formulation based on the locking-free shear deformable beam element is implemented to discretize the flexible bodies. A continuous contact-impact model is used to evaluate the contact force, in which energy dissipation in the form of hysteresis damping is considered. A force transition model from hydrodynamic lubrication forces to dry contact forces is introduced to ensure continuity in the joint reaction force. A comprehensive study with different lubrication force models has also been carried out. The generalized-α method is used to solve the equations of motion and several efficient methods are incorporated in the proposed model. Finally, the methodology is validated by two numerical examples.     

Dynamic analysis of planar rigid-body mechanical systems with two-clearance revolute joints

In this paper, the behavior of planar rigid-body mechanical systems due to the dynamic interaction of multiple revolute clearance joints is numerically studied. One revolute clearance joint in a multibody mechanical system is characterized by three motions which are: the continuous contact, the free-flight, and the impact motion modes. Therefore, a mechanical system with n-number of revolute clearance joints will be characterized by 3 ⁿ motions. A slider-crank mechanism is used as a demonstrative example to study the nine simultaneous motion modes at two revolute clearance joints together with their effects on the dynamic performance of the system. The normal and the frictional forces in the revolute clearance joints are respectively modeled using the Lankarani–Nikravesh contact-force and LuGre friction models. The developed computational algorithm is implemented as a MATLAB code and is found to capture the dynamic behavior of the mechanism due to the motions in the revolute clearance joints. This study has shown that clearance joints in a multibody mechanical system have a strong dynamic interaction. The motion mode in one revolute clearance joint will determine the motion mode in the other clearance joints, and this will consequently affect the dynamic behavior of the system. Therefore, in order to capture accurately the dynamic behavior of a multi-body system, all the joints in it should be modeled as clearance joints.     

Modeling and analysis of sliding joints with clearances in flexible multibody systems

The modeling of the sliding joint with clearance between a flexible beam and a rigid hole is investigated in this paper. The flexible beam is discretized using the three-dimensional curved Euler–Bernoulli beam element of the Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation, while the motion of the rigid hole is described by the Cartesian coordinates. Moreover, the cross sections of both the flexible beam and the rigid hole are assumed to be circular. The existing joints with clearances are mainly rigid joints with small clearances, and the contact detection algorithm adopted can solve only one pair of potential contact points within one section. In order to model the contact problem in the sliding joint with clearance, a new contact detection method based on the intersection of the rigid hole’s cross section and the flexible beam is proposed, which yields a two-dimensional contact detection problem. Based on the common-normal concept, the ellipse–circle contact detection problem within the hole’s cross section can be solved. The potential contact point on the hole’s cross section will be determined, and the closest point projection on the beam’s neutral axis can be defined further. The proposed contact detection method can deal with the sliding joint with large clearance and the multiple-point contact problem within one section. In addition, the penalty method is adopted to model the frictionless contact between the flexible beam and the rigid hole. Finally, two numerical examples about sliding joints with clearances, one with an initially curved beam under gravity and the other with a straight beam under zero gravity, are presented to demonstrate the influence of the clearance of sliding joint on the dynamic performance of flexible multibody systems.
