On the detailed design of a quasi-zero stiffness device to assist in the realisation of a translational Lanchester damper

G. Gatti et al.

Summary: A translational Lanchester damper adds damping to a structure using a combination of viscous damper and mass, but achieving low stiffness for the device is crucial to behave like a Lanchester damper rather than a dynamic vibration absorber. By utilizing a specific geometry with linear springs and rigid links, the device is able to maintain linear-like behavior despite its inherent nonlinearity. The study on how geometry affects the nonlinear behavior provides general guidelines for design, and a prototype incorporating the low stiffness element has been successfully tested on vibrating structures.

Yang Yang et al.

Summary: This paper aims to investigate the nonlinear vibration characteristics of a gas turbine dynamic model. A rod fastening rotor-bearing coupling model with fixed-point rubbing is proposed using fractal theory and finite element method.

The governing equations of motion are numerically solved, and the nonlinear dynamic characteristics are analyzed using bifurcation diagram, Poincare map, and time history. The potential effects of contact degree, distribution position, and contact layer thickness are discussed in detail. Finally, a comparison analysis is conducted between the integral rotor and the rod fastening rotor under fixed-point rubbing condition.

Cooperative compliant traction mechanism for human-friendly biomechanical energy harvesting

Hongxiang Zou et al.

Summary: This study proposes a human-friendly biomechanical energy harvester that utilizes a cooperative compliant traction mechanism. The harvester is driven by the knee joint through a compliant medium without any mechanical components, adding no weight or restraint to the knee joint. The harvester works in collaboration with the user's walking/running, collecting energy when the user does negative work. The use of frequency up-conversion and mechanical rectification improves the efficiency of electromechanical conversion. The prototype of this HF-BEH can generate power with little impact on mobility, and it has been shown to enable self-powered emergency call, positioning and tracking, health monitoring, and physical therapy. Human-vehicle interaction through self-powered wireless sensing based on HF-BEH has also been demonstrated to improve the safety of individuals with limited responsiveness and mobility in traffic environments.

Misalignment-induced bending-torsional coupling vibrations of doubly-clamped nonlinear piezoelectric energy harvesters

Yilong Wang et al.

Summary: This article presents a study on the bending-torsional coupling vibration of a doubly-clamped nonlinear piezoelectric energy harvester. The misalignment of the centroid and the torsional axis in vibration environments leads to this unique vibration. A distributed-parameter model considering the misalignment is developed and validated against experimental data and Finite Element Analysis. The study shows that torsion-induced chaotic motion can significantly reduce the electrical output of the harvester, and this phenomenon is sensitive to the system's initial state and can be mitigated by adjusting parameters that have slight effects on the bending resonance.
