  • A numerical model for fluid-structure interactions (abbr. FSI) is presented in the context of sloshing effects in movable, partially filled tanks to improve understanding of interactions between the fluid and the dynamics of a tank flexibly attached to a vehicle. The purpose of this model is to counteract the penalizing impact of the added mass effect on classical partitioned FSI coupling scheme: the proposed investigation is based on an added mass corrected version of the classical strongly coupled partitioned scheme presented in (Song et al. 2013). Results show that this corrected version systematically allows convergence to the coupled solution. In the rare cases where convergence is already obtained, the corrected version significantly reduces the number of iterations required. Finally, it is shown that the convergence limit imposed by added mass effect for the non-corrected coupling scheme, is directly dependent on the aspect ratio of the fluid domain and highly related to the precision order of the temporal discretization scheme.

  • An inertia redistribution technique for liberalizing and reducing the complexity of manipulator dynamics with a parallel drive mechanism is presented in this paper. The dynamic design method is based on eliminating nonlinear terms, such as Coriolis, centrifugal and gravity torque in the kinetic and the potential energy of a manipulator. A set of design criteria regarding the inertia properties of links is derived. The resulting manipulator dynamics can be greatly simplified for each robot. This paper particularly presents that it is possible to completely linearize the manipulator dynamics with a parallel drive mechanism.

  • This paper presents a precise and stable time integration method for dynamic analysis of vibration or multibody systems. A total system is divided into several subsystems and their responses are calculated separately, while the coupling effect is treated equivalently as constant force during time steps. By using iterative procedure to improve equivalent coupling forces, a precise and stable solution is obtained. Some examples such as a seismic response and multibody analyses were carried out to demonstrate its usefulness.

  • In this study, we predicted PTO power requirements based on torque predicted by the discrete element method and the multi-body dynamics coupling method. Six different scenarios were simulated to predict PTO power requirements in different soil conditions. The first scenario was a tillage operation on cohesionless soil, and the field was modeled using the Hertz-Mindlin contact model. In the second through sixth scenarios, tillage operations were performed on viscous soils, and the field was represented by the Hertz-Mindlin + JKR model for cohesion. To check the influence of surface energy, a parameter to reproduce cohesion, on the power requirement, a simple regression analysis was performed. The significance and appropriateness of the regression model were checked and found to be acceptable. The study findings are expected to be used in design optimization studies of agricultural machinery by predicting power requirements using the discrete element method and the multi-body dynamics coupling method and analyzing the effect of soil cohesion on the power requirement.

  • This paper presents the robust control of robot manipulators using a decentralized control scheme. The control scheme decouples the coupling dynamics between the joints and compensates the joint variable errors without any computation of the dynamics. The performance of the control scheme is compared with that of other control schemes such as the computed torque scheme and the adaptive control scheme by simulation.

  • A difference in subgrade settlement between two rails of a track manifests as lateral differential subgrade settlement. This settlement causes unsteadiness in the motion of trains passing through the corresponding area. To illustrate the effect of lateral differential subgrade settlement on the dynamic response of a vehicle-track coupling system, a three-dimensional vehicle-track-subgrade coupling model was formulated by combining the vehicle-track dynamics theory and the finite element method. The wheel/rail force, car body acceleration, and derailment factor are chosen as evaluation indices of the system dynamic response. The effects of the amplitude and wavelength of lateral differential subgrade settlement as well as the driving speed of the vehicle are analyzed. The study reveals the following: The dynamic responses of the vehicle-track system generally increase linearly with the driving speed when the train passes through a lateral subgrade settlement area. The wheel/rail force acting on a rail with a large settlement exceeds that on a rail with a small settlement. The dynamic responses of the vehicle-track system increase with the amplitude of the lateral differential subgrade settlement. For a 250-km/h train speed, the proposed maximum amplitude for a lateral differential settlement with a wavelength of 20 m is 10 mm. The dynamic responses of the vehicle-track system decrease with an increase in the wavelength of the lateral differential subgrade settlement. To achieve a good operation quality of a train at a 250-km/h driving speed, the wavelength of a lateral differential subgrade settlement with an amplitude of 20 mm should not be less than 15 m. Monitoring lateral differential settlements should be given more emphasis in routine high-speed railway maintenance and repairs.

  • In general, the Maglev vehicle is ran over the elevated guideway consisted of steel or concrete structure. Since the running behaviour of the vehicle is affected by the flexibility of the guideway, the consideration of the flexibility of guideway is needed for evaluation of dynamics of both the vehicle and guideway. A new technique based on flexible multibody dynamics is proposed to model the Maglev vehicle, levitation controller, and guideway into a coupled model. To verify the technique, an urban Maglev vehicle is analyzed using the technique and discussions are carried out.
