Based on energy analysis, dynamic equations with cubic nonlinearities were established using Lagrange's equation. In order to obtain approximate solution, multiple time scales method, one of perturbation technique, was applied. Cases of non-resonant and 1:1:2:2 internal resonant were discussed. In the non-resonant case, the validity of multiple time scales method is confirmed, comparing numerical results derived from fourth order Runge-Kutta method with analytical results derived from first order approximate expression. In the 1:1:2:2 internal resonant case, modal amplitudes of Aa1 and Ab2 increase, respectively, from 0.38 to 0.63 and from 0.19 to 0.32, while the corresponding frequencies have an increase of almost 1.6 times with changes of initial conditions, indicating the existence of typical nonlinear phenomenon. In addition, the chaotic motion is found under this condition.展开更多

The experiments/measurements were of a simple nature, conducted in several of places in Romania and Ukraine. It is shown that during Syzygy effects both the torsind and the Foucault pendulum exhibit specific reactions: the torsind’s disk is rotated, whereas the direction of the swing plane, the period, the eccentricity and the chirality of the ellipse of oscillation of the Foucault pendulum are all altered. We term all these perturbations “Syzygy effects” and found that they take place even when the devices are in locations where the eclipse is not visible and even when they are underground. An unusual time shifts?between the responses of the devices and the maximum phase of the eclipse is detected. The importance of simultaneous simple observations of astronomical phenomena using these two devices of fundamentally different types is emphasized.展开更多

By analyzing kinematic characteristics of the system, it is reduced to a one degree-of-freedom system. Then the equation of motion for the system is analytically derived by applying the theorem of the relative kinetic energy for a system of particles in differential form in the non-inertial reference system described as a nonlinear differential equation. In the case of the small angular displacement, the natural frequency of the corresponding undamped linear system is obtained, which is consistent with the experimental observation. The derived equation is useful for the study of dynamic characteristics of novel FPS, and its solution directly expedites the simulation of the system in a control loop, and further facilitates the semi-active control process including novel FPS.展开更多

文摘A novel friction pendulum system （FPS） with dual rollers is studied based on the multibody dynamics theory. By analyzing kinematic characteristics of the system, it is reduced to a one degree-of-freedom system. Then the equation of motion for the system is analytically derived by applying the theorem of the relative kinetic energy for a system of particles in differential form in the non-inertial reference system described as a nonlinear differential equation. In the case of the small angular displacement, the natural frequency of the corresponding undamped linear system is obtained, which is consistent with the experimental observation. The derived equation is useful for the study of dynamic characteristics of novel FPS, and its solution directly expedites the simulation of the system in a control loop, and further facilitates the semi-active control process including novel FPS.
