A finite element model was developed to simulate the vibratory stress relief after welding. Both resonant and nonresonant vibrations can relieve residual stresses in welded structures by creating plastic deformation around the weld area. For the non-resonant vibration, the stress reduction strongly depends on the vibration amplitude. For the resonant vibration, the vibration frequency is the ke...

different methods for detecting broken bars in induction motors can be found in literature. many of these methods are based on evaluating special frequency magnitudes in machine signals spectrums. current, power, flux, etc are among these signals. frequencies related to broken rotor fault depend on slip. in industrial environment due to some phenomena - such as load oscillation, other faults an...

Numerical simulation of bubble growth during pool boiling under the influence of low frequency vibration was performed to understand the influence of common vibrations such as those induced by wind, highway transportation, and nearby mechanical devices on the performance of thermal systems that rely on boiling. The simulations were done for saturated R123 boiling at 277.6 K with a 15 K wall sup...

Tuned vibration neutralisers and absorbers provide an effective method of attenuating tonal vibration within a structure. If the frequency of the tonal vibration alters, then an adaptive tuned vibration neutraliser or absorber can be utilised to track and adapt to changes in the frequency of the source vibration. This paper provides an overview of some of the issues associated with the developm...

this research concentrates on the effects of low frequency, vertical mechanical vibration during solidification on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a380 aluminum alloy. two series of sr-modified and al-5ti-b grain refined a380 alloy samples were solidified in both static and dynamic conditions in the frequency and amplitude of 60 hz and 0.2 m, respectively. their physical, micro-...

Introduction: Due to the non-developed mechanization situation, chainsaw is a widely used tool in Iranian forests. This tool can trigger unwelcome disorders (e.g., white finger syndrome) due to the transmitted vibrations from its handle to the body members. Characterizing these vibrations can result in minimizing the intensity of these disorders. This study aims to investigate the effect of dif...

Humans can discriminate among the hardness of objects by tapping their surfaces. The damped natural vibration caused by tapping and its frequency are known to be the cue for the perception of hardness. This study is an investigation of the characteristics of this perception of hardness, as induced by vibration stimuli including multiple frequency components. We performed a comparative experimen...

Yuan Wang, Martin J. Turner and W. Terry Hewitt Manchester Computing University of Manchester Manchester, M13 9PL United Kingdom Abstract Using the PHANToM Desktop haptic device, the absolute threshold and difference threshold of finger-hand vibration have been tested and numerically evaluated to assess the usability of this device for general purpose vibration research. In order to highlight t...

This study clarifies whether the established frequency weighting procedure for evaluating exposure to hand-transmitted vibration can effectively evaluate the temporary changes in vibrotactile perception thresholds due to pre-exposure to vibration. In addition, this study investigates the relationship between changes of the vibrotactile perception thresholds and the normalized energy-equivalent ...

in this paper, nonlinear dynamic behaviours of carbon nanotube conveying fluidwith slip boundary conditions is studied using variation iteration method. the developed solutions are used to investigate the effects of various parameters on the nonlinear vibration of the nanotube. from the result, it is observed that increase in the slip parameter leads to decrease in the frequency of vibration an...
