In this paper, a workpiece and an actuator dynamics are considered in modeling and controller design. A proportional-integral controller(PI) is presented to control and actively damp the chatter vibration of a workpiece in the milling process. The controller is chosen on the basis of its highly stable output and a smaller amount of steady-state error. The controller is realized using analog operational amplifier circuit. The work has contributed to planning a novel approach that addresses the problem of chatter vibration in spite of technical hitches in modeling and controller design. The method can also lead to considerable reduction in vibrations and can be beneficial in industries in term of cost reduction and energy saving. The application of this method is verified using active damping device actuator(ADD) in the milling of steel.展开更多

A common method for the assessment of damping in a ship’s rolling motion is to perform a free-decay experiment in calm water. In this paper, we propose an approach for estimating nonlinear damping that involves a linear exponential analytical approximation of the experimental roll free-decay amplitudes, fol- lowed by parametric identification based on the asymptotic method. The restoring moment can be strongly nonlinear. To validate this method, we first analyzed numerically simulated roll free-decay data using rolling equations with two alternative parametric forms: linear-plus-quadratic and linear-plus-cubic damping. By doing so, we obtained accurate estimates of nonlinear damping coefficients, even for large initial roll amplitudes. Then, we applied the proposed method to real free-decay data obtained from a scale model of a bulk barrier, and found the simulated results to be in good agreement with the experimental data. Using only free-decay peak data, the proposed method can be used to estimate nonlinear roll-damping coefficients for conditions with a strongly nonlinear restoring moment and large initial roll amplitudes.展开更多

A mathematical model has been developed to optimize the stability coefficients for ship, with the aim to prevent capsizing and to increase ship maneuverability in high-speed water craft. This model can be used to develop algorithms for control system improvement. The mathematical model presented in this paper optimized the use of multipurpose hydrofoils to reduce heeling and the trimming moment, maintaining an upright ship’s position and lessening the resistance via transverse force. Conventionally, the trimming and heeling of a ship are controlled using ballast water;however, under variable sea conditions it is sometimes difficult to control a ship’s motion using ballast water. In this case, a hydrofoil would be more stable and maneuverable than a ballast tank controlled vessel. A movable hydrofoil could theoretically be adapted from moveable aerofoil technology. This study proves the merit of further investigation into this possibility.展开更多
