This paper presents a comprehensive model of a hydraulic power steering system for predicting the transient responses under various steering inputs. The first principles of multi-body system dynamics and fluid mechanics ...

A lagrangian formulation is presented for the total dynamic stiffness and damping matrices of a rigid rotor carrying noncentral rigid disk and supported on angular contact ball bearings (ACBBs). The bearing dynamic ...

This paper attempts to present a new multi-criteria topological optimization methodology for the systematic design of compliant micro-mechanisms. Instead of employing only the strain energy (SE) or the functional specifications ...
