Geometrically exact planar Euler-Bernoulli beam and time integration procedure for multibody dynamics

open access: yesAdvanced Modeling and Simulation in Engineering Sciences, 2020
A new formulation of geometrically exact planar Euler-Bernoulli beam in multi-body dynamics is proposed. For many applications, the use of the Euler-Bernoulli model is sufficient and has the advantage of being a nodal displacement-only formulation ...

Well-posedness and Stability for Interconnection Structures of Port-Hamiltonian Type

open access: yes, 2019
We consider networks of infinite-dimensional port-Hamiltonian systems $\mathfrak{S}_i$ on one-dimensional spatial domains. These subsystems of port-Hamiltonian type are interconnected via boundary control and observation and are allowed to be of distinct

Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A new mechanical model of a tendon‐actuated helical extension spring joint in surgical robots is built using Cosserat rod theory. The model can implicitly handle the unknown contacts between adjacent coils and numerically predict spring shapes from straight to significantly bent under actuation forces.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
We present a numerical framework for simulating photothermal self‐excited oscillations. The driving mechanism is elucidated by highlighting the roles of inertia and overshoot, as well as the phase lag between the thermal moment and the oscillation angle, which together construct the feedback loop between the system state and the environmental stimulus.

An efficient coupled polynomial interpolation scheme to eliminate material-locking in the Euler-Bernoulli piezoelectric beam finite element

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
The convergence characteristic of the conventional two-noded Euler-Bernoulli piezoelectric beam finite element depends on the configuration of the beam cross-section.

Inherently Disordered Auxetic Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inherently disordered auxetic metamaterials based on random chiral Delaunay triangulations are designed and investigated using numerical simulations and experimental tests. These disordered frameworks exhibit orthotropic behavior and a large negative Poisson's ratio (ca.

Isogeometric analysis of nonlinear Euler–Bernoulli beam vibrations [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Dynamics, 2013
In this paper we analyze the vibrations of nonlinear structures by means of the novel approach of isogeometric finite elements. The fundamental idea of isogeometricfinite elements is to apply the same functions, namely B-Splines and NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines), fordescribing the geometry and for representing the numericalsolution. In case of

Carleman estimate for an adjoint of a damped beam equation and an application to null controllability [PDF]

open access: yes, 1886
In this article we consider a control problem of a linear Euler-Bernoulli damped beam equation with potential in dimension one with periodic boundary conditions. We derive a new Carleman estimate for an adjoint of the equation under consideration.

Functional Disorder at the Neural Interface: How Disordered Nanostructures Promote Proper Growth and Differentiation in In Vitro Neural Cultures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work provides a practical guide for neuroengineers to design advanced neural interfaces, embracing and tailoring the concept of functional disorder. By bridging 2D and 3D in vitro models, this work highlights how non‐periodic, spatially heterogeneous, multiscale nanotopography can enable more physiologically relevant platforms for studying neural ...

Strongly coupled modes in a weakly driven micromechanical resonator

open access: yes, 2012
We demonstrate strong coupling between the flexural vibration modes of a clamped-clamped micromechanical resonator vibrating at low amplitudes. This coupling enables the direct measurement of the frequency response via amplitude- and phase modulation ...
