DYNAMICS OF THE MOBILE WHEELED PENDULUM
Journal Title: ROMANIAN JOURNAL OF TECHNICAL SCIENCES - APPLIED MECHANICS - Year 2011, Vol 56, Issue 2
Abstract
Kinematics and the dynamics analysis of a two-wheeled mobile robot comprising an oscillating intermediate central body are established in the paper. The dynamics of this mechanical system is formulated using the fundamental principle of virtual work, but it has been verified the results in the framework of the Lagrange formalism with their multipliers. The study of the dynamics problems of the wheeled mobile robots is done mainly to solve successfully the control of the motion of such systems.

A NOVEL MECHANICAL MODEL FOR MAGNETIC RESONANCE ELASTOGRAPHY
Magnetic resonance elastography is a non-invasive, in vivo imaging technique used to measure the elasticity of soft tissues subject to mechanical stresses. The resulting strains are measured using MR imaging and the elas...
A SPECIAL CLASS OF DRIP MEDIA WITH HYSTERESIS
Since the interaction phenomenon for waves of arbitrary shape and amplitude is a property of the transmitting medium rather than of the particular wave profiles, Seymour and Varley named as DRIP the media that do not rem...
RISK-TARGETED MAPS FOR SEISMIC DESIGN. A BRIEF REVIEW OF THE STATE-OF-THE-ART
The uniform hazard approach is currently used for almost all seismic design maps enforced worldwide. That being the case, the seismic risk of buildings designed according to uniform hazard values of ground motions parame...
ON THE LINEARIZATION OF EXPERIMENTAL HYSTERETIC LOOPS
In this paper is presented a linearization method developed on the basis of the experimental hysteresis loop, by considering the most general case, when there is no mathematical model associated with the hysteretic behav...
THE INFLUENCE OF THE WHEEL CONICITY ON THE HUNTING MOTION CRITICAL SPEED OF THE HIGH SPEED RAILWAY WHEELSET WITH ELASTIC JOINTS
The axle hunting is a coupled lateral and yaw self oscillatory motion which is largely determined by wheel–rail contact geometry. The stability of this motion is an important dynamic problem that determines the maximum o...
