This paper presents the development of a multibody dynamics model of a VTOL teetering rotor. The developed model includes a teetering hub, containing a flexure and torque tube, rotor blades, pitch links, and swashplate system. A non-teetering rotor configuration, which modified the baseline teetering rotor by removing the teetering hinge, is also developed, and its aeromechanics characteristics...

In this paper, we characterize the rotational dynamics and observe rotor-rotor interactions within a crystalline, three-dimensional array of dipolar molecular rotors. The rotating portion of each rotor molecule consists of a dipolar fluorine-substituted phenyl group. The phenyl rotors are connected by acetylene linkages to bulky triphenyl methyl groups which are held rigid in the crystal lattic...

in this paper, we investigate various kinds of extensions of twin-good rings. moreover, we prove that every element of an abelian neat ring r is twin-good if and only if r has no factor ring isomorphic to z2  or z3. the main result of [24] states some conditions that any right self-injective ring r is twin-good. we extend this result to any regular baer ring r by proving that every element of a...

Vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft have become important aerial vehicles for various sectors, such as security, health, commercial sectors. These are capable of operating in different flight modes, allowing the covering most requirements environments. A tail-sitter is a type VTOL vehicle that has ability to take off land vertically on it elevators (its tail) or some rigid support ele...

In this paper, two kinds of vibrations are considered for a composite Timoshenko rotor: longitudinal-torsional vibration and two plane transverse one. The kinetic and potential energies and virtual work due to the gyroscopic effects are calculated and the set of six governing equations and boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton principle. Differential quadrature method (DQM) is used as ...

The performance of Vector Controlled Induction Motor drive depends on the accuracy of rotor resistance which will vary with temperature and frequency. The MRAS approach using reactive power and flux as a state variable for rotor resistance estimation makes MRAS computationally simpler and easy to design. In this paper, Rotor Flux based MRAS (RF-MRAS) and Reactive Power based MRAS (RP-MRAS) for ...

Stable rotor levitation is a challenge for rotational gyroscopes (magnetically suspended gyroscopes (MSG) and electrostatically suspended gyroscopes (ESG)) with a ring- or disk-shaped rotor, which restricts further improvement of gyroscope performance. In addition, complicated pick-up circuits and feedback control electronics propose high requirement on fabrication technology. In the proposed g...

This paper analyzes an induction motor with high temperature superconducter (HTS) coated slotted solid rotor. By slotting the solid rotor, the electromagnetic torque near synchronous speed will increase but the starting torque will decrease. To improve starting torque, rotor slots are coated with HTS materials. Using HTS material vary the rotor resistance to great extends in starting step and t...

SUMMARY Electromagnetic field theory is applied to the analysis of performance of an induction-motor rotor when it is exposed to a rotating magnetic field of constant amplitude. An idealized model of the rotor is taken and the analysis is simplified by the application of the concept of wave impedance. The model rotor is capable of simulating the effects of tooth-top and zigzag leakage fluxes, b...
