A Friction Compensation Control for Power Steering

The effects of friction are critical to the dynamics of electric power steering (EPS). On the one hand, friction contributes to the stability of the system and filters some of the disturbances (road vibration, etc.). On the other hand, it affects negativel ...

Nonlinear Train-Bridge Lateral Interaction Using a Simplified Wheel-Rail Contact Method Within a Finite Element Framework

Pablo Antolin Sanchez

The evaluation of running safety of railway vehicles on viaducts requires the study of lateral dynamics for the coupled vehicle-bridge system. This includes the structural deformation of the bridge, the vehicle multibody dynamics, and the consideration of ...

Dynamics of Slip Fronts at Frictional Interfaces: Analysis of Slip Precursors and Rupture Velocity

Jean-François Molinari, Mathilde Edmée Lucette Radiguet de la Bastaie, David Simon Kammer, Vladislav Yastrebov

The rupture dynamics of earthquakes span a considerable range, from slow to super-shear ruptures. Rupture speed has a major influence on the generation of strong ground motions, yet our understanding of the mechanisms causing these variations in the ruptur ...

Control of a separated boundary layer: reduced-order modeling using global modes revisited

François Gallaire

The possibility of model reduction using global modes is readdressed, aiming at the controlling of a globally unstable separation bubble induced by a bump geometry. A combined oblique and orthogonal projection approach is proposed to design an estimator an ...

Progress On The Iter Upper Launcher Millimeter Wave Design And Testing

René Chavan, Federico Alberto Alfredo Felici, Frédéric Dolizy

The main purpose of the ITER ECH upper launcher is to control magnetohydrodynamic activity, in particular neoclassical tearing modes, in the plasma. The mm-wave optical system is optimized to insure that the eight RF beams are all focused to a small beam w ...
