The sense-mode resonant frequency lies within this region at 1.868 kHz allowing the amplitude of the response to be insensitive to structural parameter and damping variations, with improved robustness against such variations. The passive mass achieved...

... uncertain damping coefficients. Based on the example, the concept of balancing expected performance and risk is explored in an engineering context. Risk is quantified using aleatory uncertainty for fixed values of epistemic uncertainty. The study shows the unique features of this approach in which risk...

However, the performance of these filter structures is typically limited by low damping. This is especially true if operated in low pressure environments, which is often...

For example, the multiplicative effect generates higher mesh harmonics. In prior studies, time...

... transmission error, and responses are derived to both initial conditions and the forced periodic function under a nominal preload. Analytical models are validated by comparing predictions with numerical simulations, and the effect of viscous damping is examined. Stability analysis is also briefly conducted...

The history of previous deformation and the effect of the nylon’s structural damping are taken into account. At a given constant temperature, the load sharing, meshing stiffness, and loaded transmission error...
