Abstract: The torsional vibration of moving bands subject to harmonic tension fluctuation is investigated. A thin rectangular strip translating longitudinally with a constant speed and simply supported at ...

Abstract: Flexural instabilities in moving bands under harmonic tension fluctuation are investigated. The discretized equations of flexural motion represent a periodically perturbed linear gyroscopic system. ...

Abstract: This paper presents experimental results for the real-time adaptive identification and control of a flexible, slewing beam. A frequency domain identification algorithm incorporating non-parametric ...

Abstract: Dynamic stability analysis of a driveline which incorporates a Hooke’s joint is presented in this paper. In particular, torsional instabilities due to fluctuating angular velocity ratio across ...

Abstract: The tension in power transmitting chains is subject to periodic fluctuation. This is brought about by factors such as polygonal action, eccentricity of sprockets, etc. A study of the dynamic ...
