An Integrated Lagrangian Modeling Method for Mechanical Systems with Memory Elements

Machines
Mechanical memory elements cannot be accurately modeled using the Lagrangian method in the classical sense, since these elements are nonconservative in the plane of their non-constitutive relationships, and the system differential equations are not self ...

Wheelchair caster shimmy II: damping.

Journal of rehabilitation research and development, 2000
The theory of shimmy damping is investigated including tire friction, spindle bearing friction, and hydraulic damping. A new theoretical improvement in hydraulic damping is presented. Experimental results are presented along with a discussion concerning the limitations due to the approximations used in the theory.

Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine Blade Finite Element Design Modeling with Structure and Vibration Modal Analyses to Optimize Wind Power for Offshore Applications

Sukkur IBA Journal of Emerging Technologies
Offshore wind farms are subject to complex stresses with respect to the wind influence on the turbine blades. When air flows through the airfoil surface of a wind turbine blade's element profile, the relative wind velocity causes the aerodynamic forces (
