Design, Analysis, and Experimental Validation of a Variable‐Gap Magnetorheological Damper for Seat Suspension

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To address the dual challenges of routine driving vibration and impact loads in vehicle seat suspensions, a novel variable‐gap magnetorheological damper (VGMRD) is proposed. By combining a tapered piston with a conformal variable‐diameter cylinder, stroke‐dependent, dual‐mode damping characteristics are achieved without the need for complex ...

Design, Modeling, and Vibration Control of a Damper Based on Magnetorheological Fluid and Elastomer

Actuators
The aim of this study is to propose a damper based on magnetorheological (MR) fluid and elastomer for application in vehicle engine mounting systems to dissipate the vibration energy transferred from the engine to the vehicle body.

Linear Mechatronic Modeling of Rectangular Tank Sloshing Dynamics

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sloshing dynamics in partially filled tanks can strongly influence system‐level behavior when fluid motion couples with rigid‐body dynamics. This paper presents a linear and acausal two‐dimensional sloshing model for rectangular tanks, based on the reformulation of established sloshing theory within a modular, multi‐domain modeling framework ...

ED-FNN: A New Deep Learning Algorithm to Detect Percentage of the Gait Cycle for Powered Prostheses

Sensors, 2018
Throughout the last decade, a whole new generation of powered transtibial prostheses and exoskeletons has been developed. However, these technologies are limited by a gait phase detection which controls the wearable device as a function of the activities

Enhanced Control Strategies for Residual‐Vibration Suppression and Adaptive Tracking in Flexible Manipulator Under Unknown Bounded Disturbances

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a hybrid control strategy for flexible‐link manipulators that combines offline trajectory planning with adaptive tracking to suppress residual elastic vibration (REV) under unknown bounded disturbances. A rigid–flexible coupling dynamics model is first established using the floating‐frame method and Lagrange's equations ...

Design and Multibody Dynamics Modeling of a Novel High‐Static‐Low‐Dynamic‐Stiffness Vibration Isolation Mechanism Based on Euler Buckling Characteristics

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vibration isolation has long been a critical area of research, with the design of isolators based on the mechanical properties of Euler buckling beams representing one of the primary approaches. Traditionally, the focus has been on utilizing the negative stiffness characteristics of a post‐buckled Euler beam in parallel with positive stiffness

The Challenges and Achievements of Experimental Implementation of an Active Transfemoral Prosthesis Based on Biological Quasi-Stiffness: The CYBERLEGs Beta-Prosthesis

Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2018
The CYBERLEGs Beta-Prosthesis is an active transfemoral prosthesis that can provide the full torque required for reproducing average level ground walking at both the knee and ankle in the sagittal plane. The prosthesis attempts to produce a natural level

Analysis of Mechanical‐Electrical‐Hydraulic Coupled Vibration Response Characteristics of Thermal Control Circulating Pumps Supported by Water‐Lubricated Bearings

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The operational reliability of thermal control circulation pumps is significantly restricted by the multi‐physics coupled environment. To reveal the vibration transmission mechanisms and dynamic response characteristics under multi‐field coupled excitations, a multi‐DOF coupled dynamic representation of the overall system, incorporating the ...

Integrating Grain to Ground Motion Data for Critical Rock Bridge and Slope Failure Analysis

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rock masses can fail catastrophically with little warning, yet their stability depends on hidden internal connections that channel forces and localise damage. Among these, rock bridges–a “known unknown” in slope mechanics–lock fractured rock and control how failure unfolds, but their concealed geometry and uncertain strength obscure where and ...
