... structures, which utilize curved snapping beams. Two pairs of curved beams were attached to an inner frame in both X and Y directions to present an independent bistable behavior in the directions. It was found out that the design of the inner frame is crucial for the quadstability and dynamic responses...

... method is used to find the natural frequency and dynamic response of a flexible manipulator by treating it as an Euler-Bernoulli beam. The cross-sectional diameter is varied along the length keeping the constraint on the mass of the manipulator and static tip deflection in order to maximize...

... system were studied experimentally and numerically. Time varying roller mesh stiffness and damping coefficients were used to account for the periodic variation of the mesh stiffness in the dwell and the active periods respectively. Dynamic responses of a globoidal cam system in the active and the dwell...

... constraints, while a lubricated journal bearing joint imposes force constraints. As an application, the dynamic response of a slider-crank mechanism including a lubricated journal bearing joint between the connecting rod and the slider is considered and analyzed. The dynamic response is obtained...

... is analyzed in the time domain. The effects of control gains, shear modulus and loss factor of the VEM on the dynamic response are also investigated. The kinetic energy T associated with the various layers of the rotating ACLD beam system are given by (10) T = 1 2   ∑ 1 3...

...Ping-Hsun Lin; Hsiang Hsi Lin; Fred B. Oswald; Dennis P. Townsend This paper presents procedures for designing compact spur gear sets with the objective of minimizing the gear size. The allowable tooth stress and dynamic response are incorporated in the process to obtain a feasible design region...

...Robert G. Parker; Vinayak Agashe; Sandeep M. Vijayakar The dynamic response of a helicopter planetary gear system is examined over a wide range of operating speeds and torques. The analysis tool is a unique, semianalytical finite element formulation that admits precise representation of the tooth...

...Jen-San Chen, Professor; Kwin-Lin Chen, Graduate Student Previous researches on the dynamic response of a flexible connecting rod can be categorized by the ways the axial load in the rod is being formulated. The axial load may be assumed to be (1) dependent only on time and can be obtained...
