Wheel Shimmy Experimental Investigation

Volume 1: Advanced Computational Mechanics; Advanced Simulation-Based Engineering Sciences; Virtual and Augmented Reality; Applied Solid Mechanics and Material Processing; Dynamical Systems and Control, 2012
This paper presents a test rig adopted for a basic investigation on the shimmy phenomenon that, even if with some differences, characterizes the dynamic behavior of many mechanical systems such as aircraft landing gear, motorcycles, towed vehicles, etc..

Parametric shimmy of a nosegear

Journal of Aircraft, 1970
Thus, the theoretical two-dimensional time-dependent solution, Eq. (9), has been tested as a description of the viscous cross flow for large fineness ratio bodies approximating circular cylinders at moderate angles of attack. Some agreement has been obtained, although empirical procedures are still required and the region of applicability is narrow ...

THE PREVENTION OF SHIMMYING

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1925
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Shimmying, although known for many years, did not become a serious problem until the arrival of the balloon tire and the four-wheel brake. Apparently, shimmying is of two kinds: the low-speed variety, which is merely a persistent front-wheel wabble without an abnormal bouncing of the axle, and the high-speed ...

Shimmy

2018
The shimmy, also known as the shim-me-sha-wabble, is a jazz dance that features the upper body, especially the shoulders, shaking and quivering horizontally from side to side, such that a dancer’s ‘chemise’ might shift and slide. The dance, often associated with female sexuality, rose to mass popularity in the United States in the late 1910s and early ...

A new model of shimmy

Mechanics of Solids, 2013
Shimmy is the phenomenon of intensive angular self-excited vibrations of a vehicle wheel. Such self-excited vibrations seriously threaten the safety ofmotion, which explains scientists’ profound interest in this phenomenon. This problem is most serious for the front wheels of aircraft.

Theory of the shimmy phenomenon

Mechanics of Solids, 2010
The shimmy phenomenon is the appearance of angular self-excited vibrations of the carriage wheels. Such self-excited vibrations provide a serious safety hazard for motion, which explains the great interest of scientists in this phenomenon [1–6]. This problem is most serious for the aircraft fore wheels.

Tires as a Cause of Shimmy

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1927
<div class="htmlview paragraph"><b>T</b>HE author enumerates and describes various inter-related movements of the front end of the car that are commonly known as automobile shimmy. A long list is given of experiments made in an attempt to correct the trouble.

Subcritical Bifurcations in Shimmy Dynamics

AIAA Atmospheric Flight Mechanics Conference, 2012
When wheels are rigid relative to other parts of the supporting structure, complex shimmy phenomena can be described by single-contact-point models and the equations of motion of the corresponding nonholomic systems can be derived by means of Appell-Gibbs equations.

A Cure for Shimmy and Wheel Kick

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1929
<div class="htmlview paragraph"><b>B</b>EGINNING with a review of the effects of the almost simultaneous adoption of balloon tires and front-wheel brakes, the authors outline the dynamic conditions of the front-axle system of the conventional car.
