Abstract: A method to study parametric stability of flexible cam-follower systems, based on Floquet theory, as well as a closed-form numerical algorithm to compute periodic response of the system, have ...

Abstract: Certain manufacturing industries, including the semiconductor industry, are now moving toward very high-speed machinery requiring very small yet precise motions. The total path of a coupler point ...

Abstract: A method to study parametric stability of flexible cam-follower systems is developed. This method is applied to an automotive valve train which is modeled as a single-degree-of-freedom vibration ...
