RISOn The Torsional Vibration of Branched Systems Using Extended Transfer Matrix Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel method for the analysis of free vibration of branched torsional systems is presented. The method is radically different from the traditional methods in that an extended transfer matrix ...
Vibration and Shock Isolation Performance of a Semi-Active “On-Off” Damper
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The concept of an “on-off” damper employing the feedback signals from directly measurable variables is proposed. A control scheme utilizing the directly measurable relative position and relative ...
Improved Off-Road Tractor Ride via Passive Cab and Seat Suspensions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Low frequency terrain-induced vibrations transmitted to off-road vehicle operators are quite severe and exceed ISO specified “fatigue-decreased-proficiency” (FDP) limits. Ride improvement of an ...
