A new lumped-parameter matrix method is proposed to model the decoupled, in-plane longitudinal and transverse free undamped vibrations of a collinear system with fixed ends and formed of two end flexible and prismatic members linked by a middle rigid...
With the development of aerospace technology, hypersonic flight vehicles are evolving towards larger size, lighter weight, and higher performance. Their cross-domain maneuverability and extreme flight environment led to the rigid–flexible coupl...
Construction of precast reinforced concrete (PRC) industrial halls in seismically active areas has been increasing in recent decades. As connections are one of the most sensitive and vulnerable zones of PRC structures, there is a need to pay special...
Off-road vehicle control designs often neglect the complex tire–soil interactions inherent to soft terrain. This paper proposes a Variable Impedance Control (VIC) strategy integrated with a high-fidelity terramechanics model. First, a real-time...
The free vibration of stiffened plates analyzed using classical plate–beam theoretical theory (PBM) simplified the vibrations of stiffeners parallel to the plane of the stiffened plate as the first-order torsional vibration of the stiffener cro...
Helicopter vibration is an inherent characteristic of rotorcraft operations, arising from transmission dynamics and unsteady aerodynamic loading, posing challenges to flight control and longevity of structural components. Excessive vibration elevates...
Safety is the most important requirement in flight operations. This also affects the application for an extreme lightweight glider in this paper. Essential properties are the target weight below 120
Enterprises in industries such as coking and metallurgy possess extensive industrial equipment requiring real-time monitoring and timely fault detection. Transmitting all monitoring data to servers or cloud platforms for processing presents challenge...
This article explores whether jerk, the derivative of acceleration, should be limited in trajectory planning for position-controlled mechanical systems or in the controller. The excess jerk excites structural resonances and increases actuator wear, m...
Physics-based simulations are now widely employed in mechanical engineering. Flexible Multibody dynamic Simulations (FMBSs) have proven to be effective in representing the behavior of complex structures with local damping and stiffness nonlinearities...
