Dynamic boundary control of the timoshenko beam [PDF]
Automatica, 1992 Abstract We consider a clamped-free Timoshenko beam. To stabilize the beam vibrations, we propose a dynamic boundary control law applied at the free end of the beam. We prove that with the proposed control law, the beam vibrations uniformly and exponentially decay to zero. The proof uses a Lyapunov functional based on the energy of the system.

Continuum Mechanics Modeling of Flexible Spring Joints in Surgical Robots
Advanced 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
Advanced 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.

A modeling method for vibration analysis of cracked beam with arbitrary boundary condition
Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2018 This paper establishes a cracked Timoshenko beams model to investigate the vibration behavior based on the ultraspherical polynomials. Timoshenko beam theory is applied to model the free vibration analysis of the cracked beam and the numerical results ...
