본 논문에서는 전기장 강도에 따라 댐핑력 조율이 가능한 ER댐퍼를 이용하여 유연구조물의 진동제어를 수행하였다. 아라빅 검 ER유체를 자체 조성한 후 전단 모드하에서의 빙햄모델을 실험적으로 도출하고, 이를 근거로 알맞은 크기의 ER댐퍼를 설계제작하였다. ER댐퍼를 장착한 양단고정형 유연구조물시스템을 구성하고, 제어기 설계를 위한 운동지배 방정식과 경계조건을 도출하였다. 시스템변수중 실제시스템에서 쉽게 발생할 수 있는 고유진동수와 감쇠비를 불확실 변수로 고려하여 슬라이딩모드 제어기를 설계하였다. 정현파와 랜덤가진에 대한 제안된 제어시스템의 우수한 진동제어 효과를 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 입증하였다.

This paper presents force-feedback control performance of a haptic device in virtual environment of minimally invasive surgery(MIS). As a first step, based on an electrorheological(ER) fluid and spherical geometry, a new type of master device is developed and integrated with a virtual environment of MIS such as a surgical tool and human organ. The virtual object is then mathematically formulated by adopting the shape retaining chain linked(S-Chain) model. After evaluating reflection force, computational time, and compatibility with real time control, the virtual environment of MIS is formulated by interactivity with the ER haptic device in real space. Tracking control performances for virtual force trajectory are presented in time domain, and theirtrackingerrorsareevaluated.

This paper addresses on the model synthesis and performance analysis of an engine mount featuring electro-rheological(ER) fluids which undergo a phase change when subjected to electric fields. A novel type of ER fluid-filled engine mount is devised and its hydraulic model is constructed. An equivalent mechanical model is subsequently obtained from the governing equation of the hydraulic model. The model parameters associated with the ER fluids are distilled from experimental investigations on the Bingham properties of the fluids. The distilled data are then incorporated into the governing model to undertake feasible work through computer simulations,. It is shown that the proposed engine mount has an inherent capability of controlling both the damping force and the resonance frequency. Other superior performance characteristics accrued from the proposed methodology are also evaluated.

Many type of smart materials and control laws are available to actively adjust the structure from various external disturbances. Usually, a certain type of control law to activate a specific smart material is tell established, but the effectiveness of the control scheme is limited by the choice of the smart materials and the responses of the structure. ER fluid is adequate to provide small but arbitrary control forces at any point along the structure. It was found that active vibration control of the structure embedded with ER fluids fluidly to suppress the vibration excited with broad band frequency due to the limited change of the structure characteristics. To compensate this limited effect of the control scheme with ER fluid alone, PPF control using PZT as an actuator is added to construct a hybrid controller.

The electrorheological (ER) behavior of amino coated chitosan phosphate suspension in silicone oil is investigated. Amino coated chitosan phosphate suspension shows a typical ER response (Bingham flow behavior) upon application of an electric field due to the polarizability of phosphoryl polar group. The shear stress for the suspension exhibits a linear dependence on an electric field power of 1.94. The values of structure factors $A_s$obtains 2 far mine coated chitosan phosphate suspension and it may be due to the formation of multiple chains upon application of the electric field. Throughtout the experimental results, amino coated chitosan phosphate suspension shows good dispersion stability and found to be an anhydrous ER fluid.

This paper addresses the lubrication analysis of a short squeeze film damper operating with electro-rheological (ER) fluids which have large and reversible changes in yield shear stresses with respect to an applied electric field. The ER fluids are assumed to be modeled as Bingham fluids. The governing lubrication equation for the ER short squeeze film damper is developed on the basis of a Bingham fluid model, and the equation is subsequently solved in order to investigate the effects of the ER fluids on the damping capability of the damper. It is shown that a substantial increase in damping (both direct and cross coupled) is accomplished by increasing the yield shear stress of the ER fluids. This significant improvement of the damping capability suggests that the ER short squeeze film damper could be very effective for reducing the vibration and controlling the critical speeds of a rotor system.

This paper presents a robust and superior control performance of a quarter-vehicle electrorheological (ER) suspension system. In order to achieve this goal, a moving sliding mode control algorithm is adopted, and its moving strategy is tuned by fuzzy logic. As a first step, ER damper is designed and manufactured for a passenger vehicle suspension system, and its field-dependent damping force is experimentally evaluated. After formulating the governing equation of motion for the quarter-vehicle ER suspension system, a stable sliding surface and moving algorithm based on fuzzy logic are formulated. The fuzzy moving sliding mode controller is then constructed and experimentally implemented. Control performances of the ER suspension system are evaluated in both time and frequency domains.

ER(electro-rheological) fluids, which are represented as Bingham fluids, have large and reversible changes in yield shear stresses by application of an electric field. In this paper, ER fluids are employed in a short squeeze film damper. The modified Reynolds equation for an ER short squeeze film damper is theoretically solved to get the approximate solutions of pressure profiles and damping coefficients. The theoretical approximate solutions are compared with numerical ones and both results are coincided very well. Both the direct and cross coupled damping coefficients substantially increase with increasing the yield shear stress of ER fluids. Furthermore, the synchronous response analysis of a rigid rotor supported on ER short squeeze film dampers is performed to show the improved damping capability of an ER short squeeze film damper.

This paper presents vibration characteristics of a wire cut discharge machine in which an electro-rheological brake actuator is used to control the wire tension. The ER brake actuator has several advantages including design simplicity, fast response time and real-time controllability. On the basis of the tension level required in the machine an appropriate size of the ER brake actuator is devised. The ER brake actuator is then incorporated with the machine and the field-dependent wire tension is experimentally evaluated. The straightness of the workpiece is also empirically investigated by changing the intensity of the electric field.
