This paper presents an optimization method to determine the shoulder height of an angular contact ball bearing by 3D contact analysis using nondimensional-shaped variables. The load analysis of the ball bearing is performed to calculate the internal load distributions and contact angles of each rolling element. From the results of bearing load analysis and the contact geometry between the ball and inner/outer raceway, 3D contact analyses using influence function are conducted. The nondimensional shoulder height and nondimensional load are defined to give the generalized results. The relationship between the shoulder height and radius of curvature of the shoulder under various loading conditions is investigated in order to propose a design method for the two design parameters. Using nondimensional parameters, the critical shoulder heights are optimized with loads, contact angles, and conformity ratios. We also develop contour maps of the critical shoulder height as functions of internal loads and contact angles for the different contact angles using nondimensional parameters. The results show that the dimensionless shoulder height increased as the contact angle and dimensionless load increased. Conversely, when the conformity ratio increased, the critical shoulder height decreased. Therefore, if the contact angle is reduced and the conformity ratio is increased within the allowable range, it will be an efficient design to reduce the shoulder height of ball bearings.

A numerical method is presented to obtain natural frequencies and mode shapes of uniform elastic beams with static deflections due to dead loads. The differential equation governing the free vibration of beam taken into account the static deflection due to deal loads is derived and solved numerically. The hinged-hinged, clamped-clamped and clamped-hinged end constraints are applied in the numerical examples. As the numerical results, the lowest three nondimensional frequency parameters are reported as functions of nondimensional system parameters; the load parameters, and the slenderness rations. And some typical mode shapes of free vibrations are also presented in figures.

In this paper, the Monte-Carlo method was applied to the controller robustness evaluation problems with respect to the uncertainty of critical plant parameters. The plant studied is a aerial vehicle. The-variable parameters are nondimensional stability derivatives, inertias. The nominal nondimensional stability derivatives ,were obtained from wind tunnel test. Also the nominal inertia parameters were calculated from the mass distribution along the vehicle axes. But the parameters obtained from the test or calculations are at best probable and always contain some uncertainties which one can not figure out. So some kinds of robustness evaluation method should be applied. The parametric robustness of the designed classical controller evaluated by the method turned out to be satisfactory.

This paper is concerned with the experimental investigation of transverse vibration characteristics in water of rectangular plates having an inner free cutout. Systematic experiments are carried out to investigate effects of the surrounding water on the added mass and the natural frequency of the plates due to the changes of the aspect ratio, hole size and eccentricity. The main subject is the clamped rectangular plate with a circular hole. For the purpose of comparative evaluations, some other common-type boundary conditions and hole shapes such as ellipses and rectangles are also investigated. Some of the results obtain are as follows; 1) For each given aspect ratio of the plate, there is a hole area ratio which gives a minimum value of the nondimensional frequency parameter for each mode. The hole area ratio increases as the order number of the mode increases. 2) The nondimensinal mass-increment parameter decreases as the aspect ration or the order number of the mode increases. For each given aspect ratio, the parameter the fundamental mode decreases monotonically as the hole area ratio increase. In cases of the second and higher order modes, however, each mode has a hole area ratio which gives a maximum value of the parameter for each aspect ratio more then 2/3. 3) Comparing elliptic holes with rectangular ones with same hole area ratio, nondimensional frequency parameters are almost same for each given ratio of the shorter axises to the longer one. 4) The influences of difference in boundary condion on nondimensional frequency parameters in water are similar to those in air.

This paper deals with the dynamic stability and the nonlinear behavior of a check valve system. The nonlinear equations of motion of fluid-valve interation model are derived, which are composed of the unsteady Bernoulli's equation included the jet flow mechanism and equation of motion of a check valve formulated by one degree of freedom. Also, the derived equations of motion are nondimensionalized. According to the change of the nondimensional parameters, the stabilities of the system are analyzed, and the nonlinear interaction responses of the check valve and the passing flow rate are obtained. As the results, the stability charts are constructed for the variation of nondimensional parameters. It is shown that self-excited vibrations exist in a check valve system. And also the Hopf bifurcation and the periodic doubling are found. The presented theoretical model of a check valve system can be utilized to the design and operation of a piping system with the check valve.

The main purpose of the present paper is to present both the fundamental frequency and some higher free vibration frequencies for circular arches with variable section, in which rotatory inertia is included. The differential equations are derived for the in-plan free vibration of elastic circular arches with variable section. These equations were solved numerically for the linear variable circular cross-section with clamped-clamped end constraint. As the numerical results, the four lowest nondimensional natural frequencies presented as functions of the nondimensional system parameters : the end moment of inertia to crown moment of inertia ratio, the slenderness ratio, and the opening angle. The effect of rotatory inertia on the nondimensional natural frequency is also reported.

This work presents the experimental and finite element analysis results for the free vibration of 4 edges clamped, isotropic square plates with 2 collinear circular holes. Natural frequencies of finite element analysis are obtained for the complete square plate, the square plates with a central circular hole and the square plates with 2 collinear circulare holes. And natural frequencies are experimentally measured for the complete square plate, the square plate with a central circular hole(d = 150 mm) and the square plates with 2 collinear circular holes. Agreement between experimental and FEM results is excellent. Mode shapes in special case are presented. The conclusions of the study are as follows. There is little variation of nondimensional frequency parameters for the first six mode when the aspect ratio of circular hole is less than 1/6 in the isotropic square plates with 2 collinear circular holes. And the first nondimensional frequency parameter doesn't vary as the aspect ratio of circular hole increase.

The Timoshenko beam theories are used to model the rotating shaft. The nondimensional equations of motion for the rotating shaft subjected to moving mass and compressive axial forces are derived by using Hamilton's principle. Influence of system parameters such as the speed ratio. the mass ratio and the Rayleigh coefficient is discussed on the response of the moving system. The effects of compressive axial forces are also included in the analysis. The results are presented and compared with the available solutions of a rotating shaft subject to a moving mass and a moving load.

The main purpose of this paper is to present an analytical method for free vibration of arches with thickness varying in a discontinuous fashion. The ordinary differential equations governing the free vibration of these arches are derived as nondimensional forms including the effect of rotatory inertia. The governing equation are solved numerically for the circular and sinusoidal arches with hinged-hinged-hinged end clamped-clamped end constraints. As the numerical results, the effect of rotatory inertia on the natural frequencies is reported. The lowest four natural frequencies are presented as the functions of four nondimensional system parameters; the rise to span length ratio, the slenderness ratio, the section ratio and the ratio of discontinuous section.
