(Affiliation: Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, United StatesAffiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, CyprusCorrespondence Address: Ersal, T.Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, United Statesemail: tersal@umich.edu, 2004)
A new generation of machine tools called Reconfigurable Machine Tools (RMTs) is emerging as a means for industry to be more competitive in a market that experiences frequent changes in demand. New methodologies and tools ...
Complexity of distributed parameter bond graph models
(The Society for Modeling and Simulation International, 2014)
Modeling metrics and algorithms that assist the development of dynamic system models are essential for efficient use of modeling and simulation in everyday engineering tasks. Various modeling procedures have been proposed ...
Ideal physical element representation from reduced bond graphs
(2002)
Previous research has demonstrated that bond graphs are a natural and convenient representation to implement energy-based metrics that evaluate the relative 'value' of energy elements in a dynamic system model. Bond graphs ...
Model reduction of modal representations
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2006)
Dynamic analysis is extensively used to study the behavior of continuous and lumped parameter linear systems. In addition to the physical space, analyses can also be performed in the modal space where useful frequency ...
Bond graph based modal decomposition of systems with non-proportional damping
(Affiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, 75 Kallipoleos Street, Nicosia 1678, CyprusCorrespondence Address: Louca, L.S.Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, 75 Kallipoleos Street, Nicosia 1678, Cyprusemail: lslouca@ucy.ac.cy, 2012)
Modal analysis of lumped parameter and continuous dynamic linear systems is extensively used to study their dynamic behavior and controller design. In both cases, a reduction of the model size that does not degrade accuracy ...
Bond graph based modal representations and model reduction of lumped parameter systems
(Affiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, 75 Kallipoleos Street, Nicosia 1678, CyprusCorrespondence Address: Louca, L.S.Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, 75 Kallipoleos Street, Nicosia 1678, Cyprusemail: lslouca@ucy.ac.cy, 2006)
Modal analysis is extensively used to study dynamic behavior of continuous and lumped parameter linear systems. More specifically, modal analysis can be used for the analysis and controller design of dynamic systems. In ...
Finite segment model complexity of an Euler-Bernoulli beam
(2015)
A common approach for modeling the dynamic behavior of distributed parameter systems is the approximation through finite-segment models. These models are able to accurately predict the dynamic behavior of the system given ...
Modelling and reduction techniques for studies of integrated hybrid vehicle systems
(2006)
Models of integrated vehicle systems are essential for designing hybrid vehicles by means of simulation-based optimization. Given the complexity of hybrid vehicle systems, designing is a time consuming process that requires ...
Extension and application of an algorithm for systematic identification of weak coupling and partitions in dynamic system models
(2009)
This paper reviews and extends a technique to detect weak coupling (one-way coupling or complete decoupling) among elements of a dynamic system model, and to partition and reduce models in which weak coupling is found. The ...
