ABSTRACT

Traditionally, input shaping has been used outside the feedback control loop. Utilizing input shaping in this way prevents it from directly addressing some important vibration control issues such as disturbances, nonzero initial conditions, actuator saturation, etc., These potential applications, however, will never be fully exploited unless a good understanding exists of how to create stable CLSS controllers.

Study of closed-loop stability of feedback loops containing input shapers by ana ....etc

Abstract

In paper the fundamental question about optimal interaction between the controlling stimuli generated by the active (powered) and the passive (unpowered) drives of the robotic systems have been studied. A mathematical statement of the problem has been proposed that is suitable to study this question for the semi-passively actuated n-degree-of-freedom robotic systems. The problem is formulated as an optimal control problem for n-degree-of-freedom mechanical system models a semi-passively actuated robot. We take into account the inter ....etc

ABSTRACT

VEHICLE HANDLING, STABILITY,AND BIFURCATION ANALYSIS FOR NONLINEAR VEHICLE MODELS

Vehicle handling, stability, and bifurcation of equilibrium conditions were studied
using a state vector approach. The research provided a framework for an
improved method of vehicle handling assessment that included non-linear regions
of performance and transient behavior. Vehicle models under pure lateral slip,
constant velocity, and constant front steer were developed. Four-wheel, two-axle
vehicle models were evolved from si ....etc

SYNOPSIS
In the present scenario of automobile industry manufacturers are trying to produce comfortable and safe vehicles which the consumers are looking for. A shock absorber is a damping element of the vehicle suspension, and its performance directly affects the comfortability, dynamic load of the wheel and dynamic stroke of the suspension. The conventional type of shock absorbers has got the main drawback that it causes foaming of the fluid at high speeds of operation. This results in a decrease of t ....etc

MAGNETORHEOLOGICAL FLUID DAMPER
1.INTRODUCTION
Vibration isolators or dampers are commonly used to mitigate vibrations in structures or machines. The isolators are typically passive and they are designed to reduce the vibration of the most undesired frequency. However, in many applications, the excitation frequency varies across a large range. In a semi-active device, the stiffness or damping can be adjusted during operation. Changing the stiffness of the support device can be exploited by moving the eigenfrequency o ....etc

INTRODUCTION
Earthquake by itself, is not a disaster, it is natural phenomenon result from ground movement, sometimes violent. Disaster occurs when man made buildings and other structures cannot cope up with these ground movements and fail causing death and destruction of property.
The energy that is released after an earthquake sets up waves called primary wave and secondary waves. These further produce surface waves, which cause vibration of the ground and structures standing on top. Depending on the ....etc

ABSTRACT
Magneto rheological fluids commonly known as MR fluids are suspensions of solid in liquid whose properties changes drastically when exposed to magnetic field. Magnetorheological (MR) fluids are materials that respond to an applied field with a dramatic change in their rheological behavior. The essential characteristic of these fluids is their ability to reversibly change from a free-flowing, linear, viscous liquid to a semi-solid with controllable yield strength in milliseconds when exposed to a magnetic field. ....etc

Abstract:
A modified friction damper is presented to enhance the performance of conventional friction damper and semi-active variable friction damper. An additional plate is provided between the two sliding plates of a conventional friction damper which results in an additional sliding interface with the same normal (clamping) force. Similar modification is also made to semi-active variable friction damper (SAVFD) to enhance its performance. The enhancement in the performance of the benchmark building is studied under across wind load ....etc

The dual mass flywheel, or DMF, eliminates excessive transmission gear rattle, reduces gear change/shift effort, and increases fuel economy. There are two basic types of Dual Mass Flywheels. The first is made up of a primary and secondary flywheel with a series of torsion springs and cushions. There is a friction ring located between the inner and outer flywheel that allows the inner and outer flywheel to slip. This feature is designed to alleviate any damage to the transmission when torque loads exceed the vehicle rating of the transmission. T ....etc

ABSTRACT
This dissertation proposes simple and efficient control algorithms for seismically excited structures using MR dampers and a smart passive system based on MR dampers. Magnetorheological (MR) dampers are one of the most promising control devices for civil engineering applications to earthquake hazard mitigation, because they have many advantages such as small power requirement, reliability, and low price to manufacture. A number of control algorithms have been adopted for semi active systems including the M ....etc
