This article aims to study the self-supporting truss towers used to support large wind turbines. The goal is to evaluate and validate numerically by finite element method the structural analysis when the lattice structures of the towers of wind turbines are subjected to static loads and these from common usage. With this, it is expected to minimize the cost of transportation and installation of...

In this paper, we present vibration suppression and balance control algorithm for biped humanoid robots in the motion embedded CoM Jacobian. The vibration control is employed during a single supporting phase, which can suppress vibration induced by structure flexibility. Because the previously proposed walking control method in the whole body coordination (WBC) framework is based on the rigid b...

In this paper, free vibration analysis and forced vibration analysis of FG doubly clamped micro-beams is studied based on the third order shear deformation and modified couple stress theories. The size dependent dynamic equilibrium equations and both the classical and non-classical boundary conditions are derived using a variational approach. It is assumed that all properties of the FG micro-be...

Nonlinear vibration of parabolic springs employed in suspension system of a freight car has been studied in this paper. First, dynamical behavior of the springs is investigated by using finite element method and the obtained results are then used in vibration analysis of a railway freight car. For this purpose, dynamics of a parabolic spring subjected to a cyclic excitation has been studied ...

a portable and light pneumatic branch shake system was designed and manufactured in this research for harvesting fruits that can be harvested by shaking branch. required air flow and electric current are provided for operating system from category containing electrical generator and air compressor on wheelbarrows and portable chassis. vibration is equipped by programmable logic controller (plc)...

Due to the lower tool as the research object to analyze the vibration of the drill string, causes the loss of the low order natural frequency of the drill string and the inherent vibration mode, give rise to the distortion and error of the result from the transient analysis of the drill string. For this purpose, the whole drill string of the deep wells is studied in the article, build the mecha...

This paper is a survey of the literature on gear noise and vibration. It is divided into three parts, “Transmission error”, “Dynamic models” and “Noise and vibration measurement”. Transmission error (TE) is considered to be an important excitation mechanism for gear noise and vibration. The definition of transmission error is “The difference between the actual position of the output gear and th...

The main purposes of the present work are devoted to the investigation of the free axial vibration, as well as the time-dependent and forced axial vibration of a SWCNT subjected to a moving load. The governing equation is derived through using Hamilton's principle. Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory has been utilized to analyze the nonlocal behaviors of SWCNT. A Galerkin method based on a clo...

The accessibility of horizontal vibration in a 3-D two-link flexible robot shows configuration-dependent nature (International Journal of Robotics Research 16 (1997) 567). This paper deals with physical meaning of the accessibility issue in conjunction with system mode approach. The identifiability which is dual to the accessibility is also discussed. The analysis of horizontal vibration based ...
