Directing at the problem of torsional vibration occurred in the start-up procedures of long shaft drive transmission existed in printing equipment, we raised a variable structure control method based on Variable parameters fuzzy. The method not only displays feature of traditional non-linear variable structure control like nondeference derivation, planning the dynamic process and good capacity ...

A piezoelectric tube is shown to have linear, but non-minimum phase dynamics. The main impediment to the actuation of this piezoelectric tube is the presence of a low-frequency resonant mode which causes mechanical vibrations. A physical-model-based control method is extended to non-minimum phase systems in general and successfully applied to damp the resonant mode; leading to a vibration-free ...

The joint symposium was held at the IIT Delhi on March 18-20, 1996, and focused on basic research issues and trends in the general area of vibration and noise engineering. Forty-two papers were selected for the three-day meeting on relevant topics including machine dynamics, diagnostics, vibro-acoustic analyses of structures and equipment, computational techniques, modal analysis, dynamic desig...

the subjective of this study was to explore and compare the effects of whole body vibration (wbv) and conventional spinal stabilization exercises on persons with non-specific chronic low back pain (clbp). thirty patients with non-specific chronic low back pain randomly received 6 sessions of spinal stabilization therapy with and without whole body vibration over 2 weeks. the severity of pain, f...

The free vibration analysis of rotating functionally graded (FG) nano-beams under an in-plane thermal loading is provided for the first time in this paper. The formulation used is based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory through Hamilton’s principle and the small scale effect has been formulated using the Eringen elasticity theory. Then, they are solved by a generalized differential quadrature meth...

The state of the art in vibration-based damage detection and health and usage monitoring is reviewed. The damage detection concepts and the signal analysis techniques are examined, explained, and compared. Latest advances in signal processing methodologies that are of relevance to vibration based damage detection (e.g., Wavelet Transform and Wigner-Ville distribution) are highlighted. These vib...
