Aspects of Coulomb damping in rotors supported on hydrodynamic bearings [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
The paper is concerned with the effect of friction in drive couplings on the non-sychronous whirling of a shaft. A simplified model is used to demonstrate the effect of large coupling misalignments on the stability of the system.

Numerical Modeling of Photothermal Self‐Excited Composite Oscillators

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Nonlinear roll damping of a barge with and without liquid cargo in spherical tanks

open access: yesJournal of Ocean Engineering and Science, 2016
Damping plays a significant role on the maximum amplitude of a vessel's roll motion, in particular near the resonant frequency. It is a common practice to predict roll damping using a linear radiation–diffraction code and add that to a linearized viscous

A Soft Robotic Fish With a Dielectric Elastomer Actuator Body and Negative Stiffness Spine

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work introduces a bio‐mimetic soft robotic fish driven by fiber‐reinforced dielectric elastomer actuators integrated as its body. By prestretching this active skin against a flexible spine, a negative stiffness system is created, enabling large‐amplitude bending.

Numerical Analysis Of Viscous Wall Dampers On Steel Frame

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The structure is designed to minimize component damaged, one of them is using a damping system. Viscous Wall Damper is one of the damping systems, using high viscosity liquids as dampers.

Numerical Assessment of Roll Motion Characteristics and Damping Coefficient of a Ship

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018
Accurate calculation of the roll damping moment at resonance condition is essential for roll motion prediction. Because at the resonance condition, the moment of inertia counteracts restoring moment and only the damping moment resists increase in the ...

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

A Numerical Investigation on Scaling Rolling Friction Effects in Shaking Table Model Tests

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2019
Friction action is a damping mechanism used in civil structures. It often works together with traditional viscous damping. The rolling friction action is nonlinear, and its scaling process in shaking table model tests is suspect, especially in cases of ...

Damping properties and microstructure of magnetorheological composites based on iron sand and natural rubber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Material with high damping capability is desired from the viewpoint of vibration suppression in structures. Rubber is by far the most commonly used material for damping; here damping relies on the energy absorbed due to viscous flow that occurs during ...
