Published: June 2021

This data article comprises the experimental data during testing a vibration control technique for structural and mechanical systems which uses new passive vibrational control device called the linear particle chain impact damper (LPCID). The LPCID consists of freely moving spherical balls of different sizes arranged linearly inside a rigid container. The data were collected by taking precise measurements from a custom-designed experimental setup. The data were collected for a freely vibrating frame structure which was released from an initial position by an electromagnet. The data presented in the article will provide a path for researchers to validate the dynamic models for several types of impact dampers such as single-unit and multi-unit impact dampers. The data will also help in understanding the nonlinear behaviour of this type of impact dampers. The article also comprises data for examining the performance of the LPCID by varying the design parameters, including mass ratios, damper clearance and chain length. The article is related to research articles by Gharib and Karkoub (2017) [1].

The magneto-mechanical coupling of multiphase magnetorheological elastomers.

J Phys Condens Matter

Mechanical Engineering, Virginia Tech, 635 Prices Fork Road, Blacksburg, Virginia, 24061-0131, UNITED STATES.

Magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are soft magnetic composites that achieve tunable changes in stiffness and energy response in the presence of a magnetic field. Rigid particle composite (RC) MREs have been studied for decades for their potential applications to automotive dampers and robotic systems. Recently, magnetic fluid composite (FC) MREs have been developed which utilize magnetic fluids as inclusions to elastomers.

Complementary Nucleobase-Containing Double-Network Elastomers with High Energy Dissipation and Room-Temperature Fast Recovery.

Hefei National Research Center for Physical Sciences at the Microscale, Department of Chemical Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui, 230026, China.

Elastomers have been widely employed in various industrial products such as tires, actuators, dampers, and sealants. While various methods have been developed to strengthen elastomers, achieving continuously high energy dissipation with fast room-temperature recovery remains challenging, prompting the need for further structural optimization. Herein, high energy dissipated and fast recoverable double-network (DN) elastomers are fabricated, in which the supramolecular polymers of complementary adenine and thymine serve as the first network and the covalently cross-linked soft polymer as the second network.

Optimisation of Active Magnetic Elements in Beam-like Structures-Numerical Modelling Studies.

Materials (Basel)

October 2024

Institute of Fluid Flow Machinery, Polish Academy of Sciences, Fiszera 14, 80-231 Gdansk, Poland.

This paper explores integrating advanced materials, including magnetic shape memory alloys, magnetorheological fluids, and classical shape memory alloys, within structural elements to achieve exceptional physical properties. When these materials are integrated within structures-whether as wires, actuators, or dampers-they provide the structures with unique static, dynamic, and damping characteristics not commonly found in nature. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of these active materials in enhancing the performance of beam-like structures.

Effective property method for efficient modeling of non-uniform tissue support in fluid-structure interaction simulation of blood flows.

Background And Objective: Incorporating tissue support in fluid-structure interaction analysis of cardiovascular flows is crucial for accurately representing physiological constraints, achieving realistic vessel wall motion, and minimizing artificial oscillations. The generalized Robin boundary condition, which models tissue support with a spring-damper-type force, uses elastic and damping parameters to represent the viscoelastic behavior of perivascular tissues. Using spatially distributed parameters for tissue support, rather than uniform ones, is more realistic and aligns with the varying properties of vessel walls.

The present study proposes an adaptive fuzzy tracking control strategy for switched nonlinear systems, capable of effectively addressing false data injection (FDI) attacks and input saturation, while achieving flexible prescribed performance control as well as semi-global uniform ultimate boundness for the resultant system. Compared to the previous work, the provided control strategy exhibits two notable strengths: 1) it introduces a novel modified fixed-time pregiven performance function to effectively balance input saturation and output constraint and 2) the detrimental impacts resulting from FDI attacks are successfully mitigated by implementing the fuzzy logic systems approximation technique in the backstepping procedure. A set of switching fuzzy observers are established to estimate the unobservable states while a first-order differential filter is utilized to handle the complexity explosion problem.
