Nonlinear dynamics of a rotating shaft with a breathing crack [PDF]
, 2011 In this paper, the effects of a breathing crack on the vibratory characteris- tics of a rotating shaft are investigated. A new, simple and robust model composed of two rigid bars connected with a nonlinear flexural spring is proposed.

Bearing current and shaft voltage measurement in electrical motors
, 2017 Due to the fast-rising voltage pulses of pulse width modulated drives, the generated shaft voltage of electrical motors causes electrical discharge currents in bearings. These discharges can cause bearing failure leading to costly maintenance and unexpected production stops.

Brainless Walking: Animal Gaits Emerge From an Actuator Characteristic
Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021 In this study, we discovered a phenomenon in which a quadruped robot without any sensors or microprocessor can autonomously generate the various gait patterns of animals using actuator characteristics and select the gaits according to the speed.
