Predicting vibration-induced displacement for a resonant friction slider

A mathematical model is set up to quantify vibration-induced motions of a slider, sandwiched between friction layers with different coefficients of friction, and equipped with an imbedded resonator that oscillates at high frequency and small amplitude. This model is highly nonlinear, involving non-smooth functions with strong harmonic excitation terms. The method of averaging is extended to hold for systems of this class, and used to derive approximate expressions for predicting average velocities of the slider. These expressions are shown to produce results that agree very well with numerical integration of the full equations of motion. The expressions are used to estimate and explain the influence of system parameters.

自抗扰控制框架下的摩擦力振动分析

自抗扰控制(active disturbance rejection control, ADRC)是一种具有两自由度控制结构的工程化方法, 由于其能够直观有效地处理多种扰动, 近些年来在许多机电系统上得到了成功应用. 当采用ADRC对带有摩擦力的机电系统进行调节时, 可能会产生极限环振动. 目前, 还没有ADRC框架下摩擦力振动精确分析的相关工作. 因此, 本文采用非线性动力学系统的分析工具对这一问题进行研究. 首先, 考虑两种典型摩擦力模型, 静态切换模型和动态LuGre 模型, 对一类二阶运动系统设计不同阶次的ADRC, 得到控制器的等效形式, 并揭示出与比例积分微分(proportional-integral-derivative, PID)控制之间的联系. 然后, 采用打靶法结合拟弧长延拓方法求解系统中的极限环, 并根据Floquet理论判断极限环的稳定性、可能出现的分岔以及分岔类型. 此外, 通过雅克比矩阵和近似数值方法对系统平衡点集的局部稳定性进行了分析. 最后, 通过数值计算研究了摩擦力模型和参数、ADRC阶次和参数对极限环和平衡点集的影响. 计算结果表明, 决定摩擦力Stribeck效应负斜率的参数$\beta$作用较大. 当$\beta>1$时, 两种摩擦力模型下的闭环系统呈现出相同的特性, 极限环会出现环面折叠分岔(cyclic fold bifurcation, CFB)且平衡点集是局部稳定的. 然而当$\beta<1$时, 两种闭环系统呈现出完全不同的特性. 此外, 不同阶次的ADRC在极限环的存在性和稳定性、平衡点集的稳定性上面的结论是相同的, 而低阶次的ADRC能够更好地解决摩擦力补偿和稳定鲁棒性之间的矛盾问题. 这些结论对实际现象的理解、ADRC阶次的选择以及参数整定提供了一定指导.

An extensive FPGA-based realization study about the Izhikevich neurons and their bio-inspired applications

This study is aimed at analysing damping and gyroscopic effects on the stability of parametrically excited continuous rotor systems, taking into account both external (non-rotating) and internal (rotating) damping distributions. As case-study giving rise to a set of coupled differential Mathieu–Hill equations with both damping and gyroscopic terms, a balanced shaft is considered, modelled as a spinning Timoshenko beam loaded by oscillating axial end thrust and twisting moment, with the possibility of carrying additional inertial elements like discs or flywheels. After discretization of the equations of motion into a set of coupled ordinary differential Mathieu–Hill equations, stability is studied via eigenproblem formulation, obtained by applying the harmonic balance method. The occurrence of simple and combination parametric resonances is analysed introducing the notion of characteristic circle on the complex plane and deriving analytical expressions for critical solutions, including combination parametric resonances, valid for a large class of rotors. A numerical algorithm is then developed for computing global stability thresholds in the presence of both damping and gyroscopic terms, also valid when closed-form expressions of critical solutions do not exist. The influence on stability of damping distributions and gyroscopic actions is then analysed with respect to frequency and amplitude of the external loads on stability charts in the form of Ince–Strutt diagrams.

     

Estimation of Lyapunov exponents for a system with sensitive friction model

Mathematical modelling and numerical analysis of a vibrating system with dry friction is presented. Three qualitatively different friction characteristics are considered. One of them is an example of so-called sensitive friction characteristic. Their influence on the dynamics on the attractor of the friction oscillator is investigated through bifurcational analysis. This analysis is supported by Lyapunov exponents estimated using approach for the systems with discontinuities. Theoretical background for such a synchronisation-based method of determining the largest Lyapunov exponent is explained. The results obtained through the proposed approach approximate the LLE with a good precision.

Dynamics modeling and stability of robotic systems with discrete-time force control

This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of robotic echanical systems with discrete-time force control. Force control is associated with the constrained motion of a mechanical system. A novel approach is presented to analyze the stability and performance based on the separation of constrained and admissible motions. This results in a model representing the dynamics of the constrained motion of the system. The analysis connects the complex nonlinear model of a mechanical system to a set of abstract delayed oscillators. These oscillator models make it possible to perform a detailed closed-form mathematical analysis of the stability behavior. A planar two-degree-of-freedom (DoF) mechanism is presented as an example to illustrate the material. Results are illustrated by stability charts in the parameter space of mechanical parameters, control gains and the sampling rate.     

A polynomial chaos approach to the robust analysis of the dynamic behaviour of friction systems

This paper presents a dynamic behaviour study of non-linear friction systems subject to uncertain friction laws. The main aspects are the analysis of the stability and the associated non-linear amplitude around the steady-state equilibrium. As friction systems are highly sensitive to the dispersion of friction laws, it is necessary to take into account the uncertainty of the friction coefficient to obtain stability intervals and to estimate the extreme magnitudes of oscillations. Intrusive and non-intrusive methods based on the polynomial chaos theory are proposed to tackle these problems. The efficiency of these methods is investigated in a two degree of freedom system representing a drum brake system. The proposed methods prove to be interesting alternatives to the classic methods such as parametric studies and Monte Carlo based techniques.     

Numerical method for dynamics of multi-body systems with two-dimensional Coulomb dry friction and nonholonomic constraints

Based on the dynamical theory of multi-body systems with nonholonomic constraints and an algorithm for complementarity problems, a numerical method for the multi-body systems with two-dimensional Coulomb dry friction and nonholonomic constraints is presented. In particular, a wheeled multi-body system is considered. Here,the state transition of stick-slip between wheel and ground is transformed into a nonlinear complementarity problem(NCP). An iterative algorithm for solving the NCP is then presented using an event-driven method. Dynamical equations of the multi-body system with holonomic and nonholonomic constraints are given using Routh equations and a constraint stabilization method. Finally, an example is used to test the proposed numerical method. The results show some dynamical behaviors of the wheeled multi-body system and its constraint stabilization effects.

Bifurcation Equations Through Multiple-Scales Analysis for a Continuous Model of a Planar Beam

The Multiple-Scale Method is applied directly to a one-dimensional continuous model to derive the equations governing the asymptotic dynamic of the system around a bifurcation point. The theory is illustrated with reference to a specific example, namely an internally constrained planar beam, equipped with a lumped viscoelastic device and loaded by a follower force. Nonlinear, integro-differential equations of motion are derived and expanded up to cubic terms in the transversal displacements and velocities of the beam. They are put in an operator form incorporating the mechanical boundary conditions, which account for the lumped viscoelastic device; the problem is thus governed by mixed algebraic-integro-differential operators. The linear stability of the trivial equilibrium is first studied. It reveals the existence of divergence, Hopf and double-zero bifurcations. The spectral properties of the linear operator and its adjoint are studied at the bifurcation points by obtaining closed-form expressions. Notably, the system is defective at the double-zero point, thus entailing the need to find a generalized eigenvector. A multiple-scale analysis is then performed for the three bifurcations and the relevant bifurcation equations are derived directly in their normal forms. Preliminary numerical results are illustrated for the double-zero bifurcation.     

Rotor whirl damping by dry friction suspension systems

An efficient and automatic attenuation technique for the whirling motion of rotating machinery can be achieved by supporting the journal boxes elastically and providing them with suitable rubbing surfaces subject to dry friction normal to the shaft axis. The critical flexural speeds are easily cut off and the whirl amplitude is minimized throughout the frequency range. Confining the usual operative angular speed of the rotor in the range of adhesive contact between the dry friction surfaces, there is no significant increase of power dissipation or heat production as a whole due to this type of suspension system, whose task is just to suppress the resonant peaks when passing the critical speeds. Moreover, the wear of the rubbing surfaces can be easily compensated by use of suitable spring loading systems for the friction contact. The dry friction damping is also compared with an equivalent viscous damping, where the equivalence has to be understood in terms of work dissipated per single revolution of the rotor. As for other conventional cases, the shaft hysteresis is found to exert a destabilizing effect above the first critical speed, which however can be compensated by the other dissipation sources. The system stability is here studied perturbing the periodic motion and applying the Floquet theory.     

Mechanism by which a frictionally confined rod loses stability under initial velocity and position perturbations

We present a theory to reveal for the first time the distinct mechanisms by which a compressed rod confined in a channel buckles in the presence of dry friction. Contrary to the case of a frictionless contact, with friction the system can bear substantially enhanced compressive load without buckling after its stiffness turns negative, and the onset of instability is strongly affected by the amount of perturbation set by the environment. Our theory, confirmed by simulations, shows that friction enhances stability by opening a wide stable zone in the perturbation space. Buckling is initiated when the applied compressive force is such that the boundary of the stable zone touches a point set by the environment, at a much higher critical load. Furthermore, our analysis shows that friction has a strong effect on the buckling mode; an increase in friction is found to lead to higher buckling modes.

Nonlinear Vibration Control of a System with Dry Friction and Viscous Damping Using the Saturation Phenomenon

Application of saturation to provide active nonlinear vibration control was introduced not long ago. Saturation occurs when two natural frequencies of a system with quadratic nonlinearities are in a ratio of around 2:1 and the system is excited at a frequency near its higher natural frequency. Under these conditions, there is a small upper limit for the high-frequency response and the rest of the input energy is channeled to the low-frequency mode. In this way, the vibration of one of the degrees of freedom of a coupled 2 degrees of freedom system is attenuated. In the present paper, the effect of dry friction on the response of a system that implements this vibration absorber is discussed. The system is basically a plant with a permanent magnet DC (PMDC) motor excited by a harmonic forcing term and coupled with a quadratic nonlinear controller. The absorber is built in electric circuitry and takes advantage of the saturation phenomenon. The method of multiple scales is used to find approximate solutions. Various response regimes of the closed-loop system as well as the stability of these regimes are studied and the stability boundaries are obtained. Especial attention is paid on the effect of dry friction on the stability boundaries. It is shown that while dry friction tends to shrink the stable region in some parts, it enlarges other parts of the stable region. To verify the theoretical results, they have been compared with numerical solution and good agreement between the two is observed.This work was done while the authors were associated with the Mechanical Engineering Department, Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran.     

Approximate analytical solution of the self-excited vibration of piecewise-smooth systems induced by dry friction —The vibration mechanism of the Chinese cultural relic Dragon Washbasin

Based on our previous work, a mathematical model of piecewise-smooth systems is established by means of phase-plane orbit analysis, and it is then used to study the intersting phenomena of Chinese cultural relic Dragon Washbasin. The mechanism of nonlinear damping is analyzed; the approximate analytical solution of self-excited vibration of piecewise-smooth nonlinear systems induced by dry friction is derived by means of KB Method, the results of which agree well with that of the numerical solution. Therefore, the method presented in this paper is proved to be very efficient in analyzing the self-excited vibration of piecewise-smooth systems induced by dry friction.     

Dynamic Study of a Structure with Flexion-Torsion Coupling in the Presence of Dry Friction

In aero engines, blade vibrations are frequently reduced by centrifugal flyweights, which exert a dry friction force per unit length under blade platforms. The response of this system to a periodic load has been analysed experimentally and theoretically. From a model having mode shapes similar to those of a blade, and a dry friction link per unit length, we show that the presence of the dry friction link is very effective in reducing vibrations for a range of excitation loads. The theoretical analysis is based on the Craig and Bampton mode synthesis, the rigid movement of the platform in its plane and the replacing of the linear dry friction link by several discrete parallel systems. Direct integration of the equations of motion is carried out by using the Newmark method. The comparison with experimental results is good. This method can easily be extended to more complex structures and shows that the dry friction link is effective when stick-slip occurs in the contact zone by limiting the energy provided to the system.
