A Deformation Field for Euler–Bernoulli Beams with Applications to Flexible Multibody Dynamics

The deformation field commonly used for Euler–Bernoulli beamsin structural dynamics is investigated to determine its suitability foruse in flexible multibody dynamics. It is found that the traditionaldeformation field fails to produce an elastic rotation matrix that iscomplete to second-order in the deformation variables. A completesecond-order deformation field is proposed along with the equationsneeded to incorporate the beam model into a graph-theoretic formulationfor flexible multibody dynamics [1]. This beam modeland formulation have been implemented in a symbolic computer programcalled DynaFlex that can use Taylor, Chebyshev, or Legendrepolynomials as the basis functions in a Rayleigh–Ritz discretizationof the beam's deformation variables. To demonstrate the effects of the proposed second-order deformationfield on the response of a flexible multibody system,two examples are presented.     

Coatings of indium tin oxide nanoparticles on various flexible polymer substrates: Influence of surface topography and oscillatory bending on electrical properties

Abstract— Coatings of indium tin oxide (ITO) nanoparticles on different flexible polymer substrates were investigated with respect to the achievable sheet resistance and their electrical behavior under oscillatory bending. As substrate materials, polyethyleneterephthalate (PET), polyethylenenaphthalate (PEN), polyetheretherketone (PEEK), and polyimide (PI) were chosen, the surface resistances on the different polymer substrates were compared as a function of annealing temperature and surface topography. The surface topography, which has a strong influence on the surface resistance, was characterized by means of a white‐light confocal (WL‐CF) microscope. On the PET substrate, which exhibits the smoothest surface, the coating of ITO nanoparticles shows the lowest sheet resistance of 2 kΩ/□ for a layer thickness of 3 μm and an annealing temperature of 200°C. Furthermore, the electrical behavior of coatings of ITO nanoparticles under oscillatory bending was investigated using a special device. These coatings show a cyclic change of the conductivity which can be explained by an alternating compression and extension of crack flanks under the applied stress. Due to the growing number of cracks with increasing number of cycles, a decrease of the conductivity is observed in the bent state as well as in the balanced state. For a small bending radii, the decrease of the conductivity is stronger due to more cracks caused by the higher tensile stresses in the layer. The electrical behavior of the coatings of the annealed ITO nanoparticles on PET films under oscillatory bending was compared with commercially available sputtered ITO coatings. The annealed coatings of ITO nanoparticles demonstrate better electrical properties under oscillatory bending than coatings of sputtered ITO. The different electrical behavior under oscillatory bending can be related to differences in crack formation.

Process parameters selection of fluid industry based on flexible neural trees

Fluid industry＇s production takes on high complexity, strong association, non-linear and indeterminacy. To find important parameters which influence production process, provide theoretical basis for process control of fluid industry＇s production and make the production process control more exact, we propose a flexible neural tree model in this paper. The model can be created based on predeflned information set. The structure and parameters of flexible neural tree are optimized by probabilistic incremental program evolution and simulation annealing respectively. We take production process of decomposed kiln---one of important cement＇s processes---as an example. The result indicates that the proposed model is greatly efficient.     

Experimental study of diffusion-based extraction from a cell suspension

A recently proposed application of microfluidics is the post-thaw processing of biological cells. Numerical simulations suggest that diffusion-based extraction of the cryoprotective agent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) from blood cells is viable and more efficient than centrifugation, the conventional method of DMSO removal. In order to validate the theoretical model used in these simulations, a prototype was built and the flow of two parallel streams, a suspension of Jurkat cells containing DMSO and a wash stream that contained neither cells nor DMSO, was characterized experimentally. DMSO transport in a rectangular channel (depth 500 μm, width 25 mm and overall length 125 mm) was studied as a function of three dimensionless parameters: depth ratio of the streams, cell volume fraction in the cell solution, and the Peclet number (Pe) based on channel depth, average flow rate and the diffusion coefficient for DMSO in water. In our studies, values of Pe ranged from O(10³) to O(10⁴). Laminar flow was ensured by keeping the Reynolds number between O(1) and O(10). Experimental results based on visual and quantitative data demonstrate conclusively that a microfluidic device can effectively remove DMSO from liquid and cell laden streams without compromising cell recovery. Also, flow conditions in the microfluidic device appear to have no adverse effect on cell viability at the outlet. Further, the results demonstrate that we can predict the amount of DMSO removed from a given device with the theoretical model mentioned previously.     

Using Wide Table to manage web data: a survey

With the development of World Wide Web (www), storage and utilization of web data has become a big challenge for data management research community. Web data are essentially heterogeneous data, and may change schema frequently, traditional relational data model is inappropriate for web data management. A new data model, called Wide Table (or WT for simplicity), was introduced for this task. There are several characteristics of the WT model. First, WT is usually highly sparsely populated so that most data can be fit into a line or record. Second, queries are composed on only a small subset of the attributes. Thus, existing query processing and optimization techniques for relational database with normalized tables will not work efficiently anymore. Furthermore, WT is usually of extremely large volume. It is thought that only large-scale distributed storage can accommodate themassive data set. In this paper, requirements and challenges to web data management are discussed. Existing techniques for WT, including logical presentation, physical storage, and query processing, are introduced and analyzed in detail.     

Dynamics of Flexible Multibody Systems Using Virtual Work and Linear Graph Theory

By combining linear graph theory with the principle of virtualwork, a dynamic formulation is obtained that extends graph-theoreticmodelling methods to the analysis of flexible multibody systems. Thesystem is represented by a linear graph, in which nodes representreference frames on rigid and flexible bodies, and edges representcomponents that connect these frames. By selecting a spanning tree forthe graph, the analyst can choose the set of coordinates appearing inthe final system of equations. This set can include absolute, joint, orelastic coordinates, or some combination thereof. If desired, allnon-working constraint forces and torques can be automaticallyeliminated from the dynamic equations by exploiting the properties ofvirtual work. The formulation has been implemented in a computerprogram, DynaFlex, that generates the equations of motion in symbolicform. Three examples are presented to demonstrate the application of theformulation, and to validate the symbolic computer implementation.
