The modeling and parameter estimation of a damped one-degree-of-freedom mass-spring system is examined. This paper presents a method for estimating the system parameters (damping coefficients and natural frequency) from measured free-vibration motion of a system that is modeled to include both subcritical viscous damping and kinetic Coulomb friction. The method applies a commercially available least-squares curve-fitting software function to fit the known solution of the equations of motion to the measured response. The method was tested through numerical simulation, and it was applied to experimental data collected from a laboratory mass-spring apparatus. The mass of this apparatus translates on linear bearings, which are the primary source of light inherent damping. Results indicate that the curve-fitting method is effective and accurate for both perfect and noisy measurements from a lightly damped mass-spring system.

The paper describes the vibration characteristics of the mechanical system consisting of a uniform cantilevered Timoshenko beam with a guided mass and an elastic spring supports. The free end of the beam does not rotate and the spring attatched to the guided mass is elastically restained against translation. The effect of magnitudes, rotary inertia and the size of the guided mass on the vibration characteristics is fully investigated by the numerical simulation using FEM and experiment. In order to verify the eigenvalue sensitivity for considered system, comparison exact solutions with FEM are conducted, and a good agreement between two solutions is also highlighted.

This paper introduces a scheme for optimizing the material properties of mass-spring systems of different resolutions to provide coherent behavior for reduced level-of-detail in MSS(Mass-Spring System) meshes. The global optimal material coefficients are derived to match the behavior of provided reference mesh. The proposed method also gives us insight into levels of reduction that we can achieve in the systematic behavioral coherency among the different resolution of MSS meshes. We obtain visually acceptable coherent behaviors for cloth models based on our proposed error metric and identify that this method can significantly reduce the resolution levels of simulated objects. In addition, we have confirmed coherent behaviors with different resolutions through various experimental validation tests. We analyzed spring force estimations through triangular Barycentric coordinates based from the reference MSS that uses a Gaussian kernel based distribution. Experimental results show that the displacement difference ratio of the node positions is less than 10% even if the number of nodes of $MSS^{sim}$ decreases by more than 50% compared with $MSS^{ref}$. Therefore, we believe that it can be applied to various fields that are requiring the real-time simulation technology such as VR, AR, surgical simulation, mobile game, and numerous other application domains.

Recently, the amount of spring usage is on the increase in the automotive and aircraft parts industries as well as home appliances. Manufacture of spring reflects a need for diversification, mass production and high precision. Therefore it is very important to know the bending method and forming technique according to the shape of spring. In this study, to find the optimal bending method for the motor spring, the FE-simulation was executed using orthogonal array. The design parameters are wire length, length of vibration and feed rate. Then, the optimal combination of design parameters was suggested using ANN technique.

The paper presents a numerical study to evaluate the phase velocities and attenuations of the average longitudinal and shear ultrasonic waves resulting from multiple scattering in fiber-reinforced composites. A computational procedure developed in this work is first used to produce a random, yet largely even distribution of fibers. Both the viscoelastic epoxy matrix and lossless randomly distributed graphite fibers are modeled using the mass-spring-dashpot lattice model, with no damping for the latter. By numerically simulating ultrasonic through-transmission tests using this direct model of composites, phase velocities and attenuations of the longitudinal and shear waves through the composite are found as functions of frequency or fiber concentration. The numerical results are observed to generally agree with the corresponding results in the literature. Discrepancies found in some detail aspects, particularly in the attenuation results, are also addressed.

강착장치에 의한 지면반력은 착륙과 이륙시 지면과의 상호작용을 나타내며 고도를 감지하여 지면에 접촉하였을 때 지면의 반력을 헬리콥터에 전달해주는 역할을 한다. 비행시뮬레이션에 있어서 강착장치는 비행 중 비행특성에 미치는 영향이 없기 때문에 비행특성 분석용 또는 비행제어용 비행시뮬레이션 프로그램에서는 강착장치를 생략하여 시뮬레이션 하는 경우가 많다. 하지만 훈련의 목적으로 사용하는 경우 착륙과 이륙은 큰 비중을 차지하며 무인기의 함상 착륙과 같은 시뮬레이션에서는 필수적인 요소로 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서 강착장치는 1자유도의 mass, spring, damper의 간단한 진동시스템을 택하였고, 강착장치의 접촉점인 지면은 고도 0인 평탄한 지면으로 가정하였다. 추후 지면을 6자유도를 가지는 움직이는 평면으로 쉽게 대체할 수 있도록 벡터형식으로 된 모델을 선택하였다.

An analytical study about dynamic behavior of center pivot rocker arm type valve train system equipped with roller of diesel engine is developed. At first, a mathematical model for the dynamic analysis has been set up using the lumped parameter method. In that model, valve spring is divided as some mass elemehts so as to simulate spring surging, Then, how the design parameters, such as valve mass, rocker arm inertia, valve spring stiffness, and initial load on valve spring, affect valve dynamic behavior especially in the valve close area is scrutinized.

본 연구는 질량-스프링 모델 기반의 직물 모델에서 질점의 움직임을 분석하여 실시간 직물 애니메이션이 가능한 퍼지 추론 기법을 제안한다. 지금까지 직물과 같은 탄성체를 표현하기 위한 많은 기법들은 질량-스프링 모델을 사용하였다. 직물은 다수의 질량과 스프링의 조합으로 구성되어 변형 가능한 면을 이루게되고, 면의 움직임은 운동법칙을 기반으로 수치적분을 통해 계산될 수 있다. 제안된 방법과 동일한 직물구조에서 Explicit 오일러 방법은 ${\Delta}t$ > 0.01 일 경우 불안정성 문제가 나타났으며, Implicit 오일러 방법은 ${\Delta}t$ = 0.03 에서도 애니메이션이 생성되지만 많은 양의 선형 시스템을 계산해야 하는 단점을 가지고 있어서 실시간 처리에 부적합하다. 본 연구는 질량-스프링 모델에서 질점의 움직임을 계산하기 위하여 ${\Delta}t$ = 0.03을 가지면서도 실시간 처리가 가능한 방법을 제안한다.

When a human operator interacts with a virtual wall that is modeled as a virtual spring model, the lager the stiffness of the virtual spring is, the more realistic the operator feels that the virtual wall is. In the previous studies, it is shown that the maximum available stiffness of a virtual spring to guarantee the stability can be increased when the first-order-hold method is applied, however the effects of a human impedance on the stability are not considered. This paper presents the effects of a human impedance on stability of haptic system with a virtual spring and a first-order-hold (FOH) method. The human impedance model is modeled as a linear second-order system model. The relations between the maximum available stiffness of a virtual spring and the human impedance such as a mass, a damping and a stiffness are analyzed through the MATLAB simulation. It is shown that the maximum available stiffness is proportional to the square root of the human mass or damping respectively.

This study describes a method which can attenuate reaction force effectively for an air spring system composed of an air spring and auxiliary chamber. For the analysis, the nonlinear governing equation of the air spring system is derived. For a performance improvement of the system, change of the heat transfer effect and the mass flow rates is included in the analysis of the air spring system. The simulation study is presented to show the reaction force is changed by variations in heat transfer characteristics and the air spring system of isothermal process has the best performance. As a result, to improve attenuation characteristics of reaction force, a process in the air spring system should be maintained near isothermal process.
