THE APPLICATION OF BALL-TYPE BALANCERS FOR RADIAL VIBRATION REDUCTION OF HIGH-SPEED OPTIC DISK DRIVES

This study is dedicated to the design of a ball-type balancer system installed on the high-speed disk drive in order to reduce radial vibrations of rotors caused by eccentricities of disk's center of gravity and circular runway of the ball balancer. The ball balancer is a promising candidate due to its low cost and capability to completely eliminate radial vibrations under the conditions that runway eccentricity, damping and friction are not present. A mathematical model was established first for the analysis of the dynamics of a rotor-balancer system. The influence of concerned parameters, e.g., runway eccentricity and rolling resistance, on residual vibrations was then explored through solving the equations for steady state solutions. The results were used to evaluate the performance of balancers in terms of vibration reduction. The design guidelines for minimizing the vibrations by controlling the aforementioned concerned parameters were provided based on the parametric analysis conducted. Finally, experimental study was orchestrated and performed to verify the validity of the mathematical model and demonstrate balancer capability for reduction of radial vibrations.     

DYNAMIC STABILITY OF SKEW PLATES SUBJECTED TO AERODYNAMIC AND RANDOM IN-PLANE FORCES

This paper presents an investigation into the dynamic stability of skew plates acted upon simultaneously by an aerodynamic force in the chordwise direction and a random in-plane force in the spanwise direction. Due to this random in-plane force, the plate may become unstable before the aerodynamic force reaches its critical value. In this work, the finite element formulation is applied to obtain the discretized system equations. The system equations are then partially uncoupled and reduced in size by the modal truncation method. Finally, the unsmoothed and the smoothed versions of the stochastic averaging are used to calculate the system response, and the second-moment stability criterion is utilized to determine the stability boundary of the system. Numerical results show that the stability boundary obtained by the smoothed stochastic averaging is less conservative than that obtained by the unsmoothed version, and the former is the tangent of the latter at zero spectral density of the random in-plane force.     

THE FORCED VIBRATION AND BOUNDARY CONTROL OF PRETWISTED TIMOSHENKO BEAMS WITH GENERAL TIME DEPENDENT ELASTIC BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

The governing differential equations and the general time-dependent elastic boundary conditions for the coupled bending-bending forced vibration of a pretwisted non-uniform Timoshenko beam are derived by Hamilton's principle. By introducing a general change of dependent variable with shifting functions, the original system is transformed into a system composed of four non-homogeneous governing differential equations and eight homogeneous boundary conditions. The transformed system is proved to be self-adjoint. Consequently, the method of separation of variables can be used to solve the transformed problem. The physical meanings of these shifting functions are explored. The orthogonality condition for the eigenfunctions of a pretwisted non-uniform beam with elastic boundary conditions is also derived. The relation between the shifting functions and the stiffness matrix is derived. The boundary control of a pretwist Timoshenko beam is studied. The effects of the total pretwist angle, the position of loading and the boundary spring constants on the energy required to control the performance of a pretwisted beam are investigated.     

Comultiplications on a wedge of two spheres

In this paper we study the set of comultiplications on a wedge of two spheres. We are primarily interested in the size of this set and properties of the comultiplications such as associativity and commutativity. Our methods involve Whitehead products in wedges of spheres and the Hopf-Hilton invariants. We apply our results to specific examples and determine the number of comultiplications, associative comultiplications and commutative comultiplications in these cases.     

2000 Vol.11 No.8 P.Preparation of AChE Inhibitors From Jujubogenin

A dammarane derivative dihydrojujubogenin-2-en-1-one, which possesses a skeleton and pharmacophore partially similar to those of Territrem B, a potent AChE inhibitor, was synthesized via three different paths. The anti-AChE activity of this compound and related analogue was measured.

9-蒽醛衍生化-高效液相色谱法拆分α-氨基酸甲酯和几种脂肪胺对映体

采用高效液相色谱法,以9-蒽醛为衍生试剂,在5种多糖衍生物的手性固定相(CSPs)上对几种α-氨基酸甲酯对映体进行了手性分离。色谱条件如下: 流动相为含3%～10%(v/v)异丙醇的正己烷溶液,流速为1.0 mL/min,检测波长为254 nm。结果表明,α-氨基酸甲酯-9-蒽醛亚胺衍生物在Chiralcel OD柱或Chiralcel OD-H柱上的手性分离结果优于其他CSPs,而且在Chiralcel OD柱或Chiralcel OD-H柱上全部得到了基线拆分(α=1.24～5.47, Rs=2.56～13.90), L-对映体在这两种色谱柱上的保留强于D-对映体。同时还考察了几种脂肪胺在5种多糖衍生物手性固定相上的对映体拆分效果,结果表明脂肪胺的9-蒽醛亚胺衍生物在Chiralcel OD柱或Chiralcel OD-H柱上的分离效果良好。该法可用于其他α-氨基酸酯和胺类化合物对映体的分析。
