Flow induced vibration and smart control of elastically coupled double-nanotube-systems (CDNTSs) are investigated based on Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory and Euler-Bernoulli beam model. The CDNTS is considered to be composed of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) and Boron-Nitride Nanotube (BNNT) which are attached by Pasternak media. The BNNT is subjected to an applied voltage in the axial direction w...

The elastic vibration of the wheelset is a potential factor inducing wheel-rail defects. It important to understand natural characteristics flexible for slowing down defect growth. To estimate free railway with multidiameter axle, transfer matrix method (TMM) applied. matrices four types beam models are derived including Euler–Bernoulli beam, Timoshenko without mass and shearing stiffness, mass...

In this study, nonlocal nonlinear instability and the vibration of a double carbon nanotube (CNT) system have been investigated. The Visco-Pasternak model is used to simulate the elastic medium between nanotubes, on which the effect of the spring, shear and damping of the elastic medium is considered. Both of the CNTs convey a viscose fluid and a uniform longitudinal magnetic field is applied t...

Athermal random fiber networks are usually modeled by representing each fiber as a truss, a Euler-Bernoulli or a Timoshenko beam, and, in the case of cross-linked networks, each cross-link as a pinned, rotating, or welded joint. In this work we study the effect of these various modeling options on the dependence of the overall network stiffness on system parameters. We conclude that Timoshenko ...

This work presents the study of dynamics and active control a cantilever sigmoid FGM beam with porosities in thermal environment. During this study, we considered Timoshenko beam’s theory combined finite element method (FEM). also comparative an experimental for vibration functionally graded piezoelectric (FGPM) to validate numerical model. Linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) optimal Kalman filter ...

The uniform formulation of dynamic vibration analysis multispan beams is presented by using an efficient domain decomposition method in this paper. Firstly, the structure divided into several equal sections based on method. Next, artificial spring used to simulate complex boundaries and continuity condition beam. Finally, admissible displacement functions are expanded through Jacobi orthogonal ...

In the present paper, electrical energy harvesting from random vibrations of an Euler-Bernoulli nano-beam with two piezoelectric layers is investigated. The beam is composed of an aluminum layer together with two piezoelectric ceramic layers (PZT 5A) serving as energy harvesting sensors. In the proposed method, the equations governing the bimorph nano-beam will be analytically derived using cla...

This paper presents an expert spindle design system strategy which is based on the efficient utilization of past design experience, the laws of machine design, dynamics and metal cutting mechanics. The configuration of the spindle is decided from the specifications of the workpiece material, desired cutting conditions, and most common tools used on the machine tool. The spindle drive mechanism,...
