The drilling process has a great importance for the production technology due to its widerspread use in the manufacturing industry. In order to enhance a maximum production rate and prevent the drill from the damage, it is important to monitor and control the drilling system. Thrust force and cutting torque are the main output variables in the design of drilling control systems. In this paper, an alternative estimation method of thrust force by using flexible neural networks is proposed. Flexible neural network uses the sigmoid activation function with adjustable parameter in order to enhance the approximation accuracy ...

In this paper, the optimal command input is considered in order to minimize the residual vibrations of a flexible cantilever beam when the beam simply changes its position by translation or rotation. Although a cantilever beam has many modes of vibration, it is shown that the consideration of the first mode is sufficient in this case. Thus, the problem becomes a singledegree-of-freedom system subjected to a ground excitation. Two simple methods are proposed to find the optimal command input based on the Shock Response Spectrum (SRS). The first method is the simplest and can be applied to lightly damped cases, and the second method is applicable to more general problems. The second method gives almost the same results as the input shaping method. However the proposed method gives a easier and clearer control strategy.

This paper is concerned with the application of perturbation method to the dynamic analysis of floating flexible body. In dealing with the dynamics of free-floating body, the rigid-body motions and elastic vibrations are analyzed separately. However, the rigid-body motions cause vibrations and elastic vibrations also affect rigid-body motions in turn, which indicates that the rigid-body motions and elastic vibrations are coupled in nature. The resulting equations of motion are hybrid and nonlinear. We can discretize the equations of motion by means of admissible functions but still we have to cope with nonlinear equations. In the previous paper, we proposed the use of perturbation method to the coupled equations of motion and derived zero-order and first-order equations of motion. The derivation process was lengthy and tedious. Hence, in this paper, we propose a new approach to the same problem by applying the perturbation method to the Lagrange's equations, thus providing a systematic approach to the addressed problem. Theoretical derivations show the efficacy of the proposed method.

Since flexible adhesives are used more and more in structural applications, designers should have a better understanding of its behaviour under various conditions as ultimate load, fatigue load, long-term load and environmental conditions. This paper focuses on long-term load conditions and its effect on flexible adhesives. The creep properties of both PU (PolyUrethane) and SMP (Silyl Modified Polymers) adhesives used for identical applications are considered. To investigate the creep behaviour tests under various conditions were done. The results of those tests are presented and compared. To evaluate these results an empirical method is proposed and discussed. An example illustrates the potential of this method. It is also shown that with use of a probabilistic calibration technique this method results into a simple rule, which can be used to calculate the creep for practical applications. For the studied adhesives, the creep performance of the SMP adhesive is shown to be of the same level or slightly better than of the two PU adhesives. In addition to this empirical method, the principles of a more complex theoretical based method are introduced. The potential of this method is illustrated and future research activities are drawn.

H-infinity norm relates to the maximum in the frequency response function and H-infinity control method focuses on the case that the vibration is excited at the fundamental frequency, while 2-norm relates to the output energy of systems with the input of pulses or white noises and 2-norm control method weighs the overall vibration performance of systems. The trade-off between the performance in frequency-domain and that in time-domain may be achieved by integrating two indices in the mixed vibration control method. Based on the linear fractional state space representation in the modal space for a piezoelectric flexible structure with uncertain modal parameters and un-modeled residual high-frequency modes, a mixed dynamic output feedback control design method is proposed to suppress the structural vibration. Using the linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, the initial populations are generated by the designing of robust control laws with different H-infinity performance indices before the robust 2-norm performance index of the closed-loop system is included in the fitness function of optimization. A flexible beam structure with a piezoelectric sensor and a piezoelectric actuator are used as the subject for numerical studies. Compared with the velocity feedback control method, the numerical simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, we propose an efficient technique for the animation of flexible thin objects. Mass-spring model was employed to represent the flexible objects. Till now, many techniques have used the mass-spring model to generate plausible animation of soft objects. A straight-forward approach to the animation with mass-spring model is explicit Euler method, but the explicit Euler method has serious disadvantage that it suffers from 'instability problem'. The implicit integration method is a possible solution to overcome the instability problem. However, the most critical flaw of the implicit method is that it involves a large linear system. This paper presents a fast animation technique for mass-spring model with approximated implicit method. The proposed technique stably updates the state of n mass-points in O(n) time when the number of total springs are O(n). We also consider the interaction of the flexible object and air in order to generate plausible results.

Steam turbines, gas turbines, multistage centrifugal compressors are operated over the range of the first critical speed. In these rotors flexible rotor balancing technique is necessary. In such balancing, influence coefficients are measured by rotating a rotor with trial weight. But for the large rotor, the measurement of influence coefficient takes much time and it reduces the cost efficiency. In this paper the new influence coefficient with rotation of rotor is proposed. First the theoretical background of the method is presented and it is applied to the simple flexible rotor model. Then the experiments are performed and the results of presented method are compared with those of analytical method. By using the obtained influence coefficient, balancing of the flexible rotor is performed.

This paper deals with the makespan minimization problem of job shops. The problem is known as one of hard problems to optimize, and therefore, many heuristic methods have been proposed by many researchers. The aim of this study is also to propose a heuristic scheduling method for the problem. However, the difference between the proposed method and many other heuristics is that the proposed method is based on depth-first branch and bound, and thus it is possible to find an optimal solution at least in principle. To accelerate the search, when a node is judged hopeless in the search tree, the proposed flexible branch and bound method can indicate a higher backtracking node. The unexplored nodes are stored and may be explored later to realize the strict optimization. Two methods are proposed to generate the backtracking point based on the critical path of the current best feasible schedule, and the minimum lower bound for the makespan in the unexplored sub-problems. Schedules are generated based on Giffler and Thompson's active schedule generation algorithm. Acceleration of the search by the flexible branch and bound is confirmed by numerical experiment.

We consider the simultaneous slewing and vibration suppression control problem of an idealized structural model which has a rigid hub with two cantilevered flexible appendages and finite tip masses. The finite clement method(FEM) is used to obtain linear finite dimensional equations of motion for the model. In the linear quadratic regulator(LQR) problem, a simple method is introduced to provide a physically meaningful performance index for space structure models. This method gives us a mathematically minor but physically important modification of the usual energy type performance index. A numerical procedure to solve a time-variant LQR problem with inequality control constraints is presented using the method of particular solutions.
