Abstract: When a squeeze-film damper-mounted rigid rotor system is operated eccentrically, the nonlinear forces are no longer radially symmetric and a disordered dynamical behavior (i.e., quasi-periodic and ...

Abstract: The tracking control problem of robot manipulator is considered in this paper. A sliding mode controller design with global invariance is proposed using the concept of extended system and ...

Abstract: The hybrid squeeze-film damper bearing with active control is proposed in this paper. The pressure distribution and the dynamics of a rigid rotor supported by such bearing are studied. A PD ...
