Classes and Topics

Class 1 Introduction

Monday, January 18 This subject is a continuation of statics and dynamics, which is taken by students in their freshman or

sophomore years. In kinematics and dynamics of machines and mechanisms, however, the emphasis

shifts from studying general concepts with illustrative examples to developing methods and

performing analyses of real designs. This shift in emphasis is important, since it entails dealing with

complex objects and utilizing different tools to analyze these objects

Class 2 Class 2 Tuesday, January 19

Importance of dynamics of machine

The design process starts with meeting the functional requirements of the product. The basic one in

this case is the proper opening, dwelling, and closing of the valve as a function of time. To achieve

this objective, a corresponding cam profile producing the needed follower motion should be found.

The rocker arm, being a lever, serves as a displacement amplifier/reducer. The timing of opening,

dwelling, and closing is controlled by the speed of the camshaft. The function of the spring is to keep

the roller always in contact with the cam.

Class 3 Thursday, January 22

Dynamics of rigid link in plane motion,

• Reduced delivery times • Reduced set-up costs

• Reduced set-up times

• Reduced transportation costs • Reduced investment in stock • Reduction in batch sizes • Improved quality

• Improved reliability Technological

In order to understand a firm’s technological competitiveness, a periodic technology assess-

ment needs to be performed to chart the deterio-ration of technology and to benchmark a

firm’srelative position against a competitor.

Class 4 Wednesday, January 20

Force analysis: Static force analysis of

A force is characterized by its magnitude and direction, and thus is a vector. In an (x, y)-plane the

force vector, F, can be represented in different forms

F = [Fx, Fy]

= F [cosα, sinα]T = F (i cosα + j sinα) where Fx, Fy are the x- and y-components of the vector (Figure 3.1), α indicates force direction (positive α is measured counterclockwise), and i and j are the unit vectors directed along the x- and y-

axis, correspondingly. A moment of the force F with respect to a point A is a vector found as a cross-

product of two vectors: M = rA × F

Class 5, Thursday, January 22

Class 11 Tuesday, Feb. 2

Gyroscope: introduction.

A gyroscope is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, based on the principles of

conservation of angular momentum. A mechanical gyroscope is essentially a spinning wheel or disk

whose axle is free to take any orientation. This orientation changes much less in response to a given

external torque than it would without the large angular momentum associated with the gyroscope's

high rate of spin. Since external torque is minimized by mounting the device in gimbals, its orientation

remains nearly fixed, regardless of any motion of the platform on which it is mounted. Gyroscopes

based on other operating principles also Exit, such as the electronic, microchip-packaged MEMS

gyroscope devices found in consumer electronic devices, solid state ring lasers, fiber optic gyroscopes

and the extremely sensitive quantum gyroscope. Applications of gyroscopes include navigation (INS)

when magnetic compasses do not work (as in the Hubble telescope) or are not precise enough (as in

ICBMs) or for the stabilization of flying vehicles like radio-controlled helicopters or UAVs. Due to

higher precision, gyroscopes are also used to maintain direction in tunnel mining.

Class 12 Thursday Feb. 4

Space motion of rigid bodies,

Diagram of a gyro wheel. Reaction arrows about the output axis (blue) correspond to forces applied

about the input axis (green), and vice versa. Within mechanical systems or devices, a conventional

gyroscope is a mechanism comprising a rotor journal led to spin about one axis, the journals of the

rotor being mounted in an inner gimbals or ring, the inner gimbals is journal led for oscillation in an

outer gimbals which is journal led in another gimbals. So basically there are three gimbals.

Class 14 Saturday, Feb. 6

Gyroscopic stabilization,

The behavior of a gyroscope can be most easily appreciated by consideration of the front wheel of a

bicycle. If the wheel is leaned away from the vertical so that the top of the wheel moves to the left, the

forward rim of the wheel also turns to the left. In other words, rotation on one axis of the turning

wheel produces rotation of the third axis.

Class 15 Monday, Feb. 8

Ship stabilization,

Steering is the turning of a complete ship in a curve towards left or right, while it moves forward,

considers the ship taking a left turn, and rotor rotates in the clockwise direction when viewed from the

stern, as shown in Fig. below. The effect of gyroscopic couple on a naval ship during steering taking

left or right turn may be obtained in the similar way as for an aero plane as discussed in Art.

Mech. Vibrations:

When a system is subjected to an initial disturbance and then left free to vibrate on its own, the

resulting vibrations are referred to as free vibrations .Free vibration occurs when a mechanical

system is set off with an initial input and then allowed to vibrate freely. Examples of this type of

vibration are pulling a child back on a swing and then letting go or hitting a tuning fork and letting it

ring. The mechanical system will then vibrate at one or more of its "natural frequencies" and damp

down to zero.

Class 21 Tuesday, Feb.16 Longitudinal Vibration

known as longitudinal vibrations.

Class22 Thursday Feb.18 Numerical

Solve the numerical relative to above theory.

Class 23 Friday, Feb.19 Single degree free and damped vibration.

It is the resistance to the motion of a vibrating body. The vibrations associated with this resistance are

known as damped vibrations.

Types of damping:

(1)Viscous damping

(2) Dry friction or coulomb damping

(3) Solid damping or structural damping

(4) Slip or interfacial damping.

Class 24 Saturday, Feb.20

Forced vibration of single degree under harmonic

Forced vibration is when an alternating force or motion is applied to a mechanical system. Examples

of this type of vibration include a shaking washing machine due to an imbalance, transportation

vibration (caused by truck engine, springs, road, etc), or the vibration of a building during an

earthquake. In forced vibration the frequency of the vibration is the frequency of the force or motion

applied, with order of magnitude being dependent on the actual mechanical system.

Steady State Response due to Harmonic Oscillation

Consider a spring-mass-damper system as shown in figure. The equation of motion of this system

subjected to a harmonic force can be given by

Class 25 Monday, Feb. 22

Cont…Forced vibration of single degree under harmonic excitation.

Forced vibration with damping

In this section we will see the behavior of the spring mass damper model when we add a harmonic

force in the form below. A force of this type could, for example, be generated by a rotating imbalance.

If we again sum the forces on the mass we get the following ordinary differential equation:

The steady state solution of this problem can be written as:

The result states that the mass will oscillate at the same frequency, f, of the applied force, but with a

phase shift φ.

Class 26 Tuesday, Feb.23

Vibration isolation. Whirling of shaft and critical

The speed, at which the shaft runs so that the additional deflection of the shaft from the axis of

rotation becomes infinite, is known as critical or whirling speed. No shaft can ever be perfectly

straight or perfectly balanced. When an element of mass is a distance from the axis of rotation,

centrifugal force, will tend to pull the mass outward. The elastic properties of the shaft will act to

restore the ―straightness‖. If the frequency of rotation is equal to one of the resonant frequencies of the shaft, whirling will occur. In order to save the machine from failure, operation at such whirling

speeds must be avoided.

Class 27 Thursday, Feb.25 Unit test

Class 28 Friday, Feb 26 Balancing:-introduction.

Balancing is the process of eliminating or at least reducing the ground forces and/or moments. It is

achieved by changing the location of the mass centers of links. Balancing of rotating parts is a well

known problem. A rotating body with fixed rotation axis can be fully balanced i.e. all the inertia forces

and moments. For mechanism containing links rotating about axis which are not fixed, force balancing

is possible, moment balancing by itself may be possible, but both not possible. We generally try to do

force balancing. A fully force balance is possible, but any action in force balancing severe the moment

balancing.

Class 29 Saturday, Feb. 27, Introduction, static balance, dynamic balance.

Balancing of rotating masses

The process of providing the second mass in order to counteract the effect of the centrifugal force of

the first mass is called balancing of rotating masses.

Static balancing:

The net dynamic force acting on the shaft is equal to zero. This requires that the line of action of three

centrifugal forces must be the same. In other words, the centre of the masses of the system must lie on

the axis of the rotation. This is the condition for static balancing.

Dynamic balancing:

The net couple due to dynamic forces acting on the shaft is equal to zero. The algebraic sum of the

moments about any point in the plane must be zero.

Class 33 Friday, March20

Balancing of single cylinder engine

A single cylinder engine produces three main vibrations. In describing them we will assume that the

cylinder is vertical. Firstly, in an engine with no balancing counterweights, there would be an

enormous vibration produced by the change in momentum of the piston, gudgeon pin, connecting rod

and crankshaft once every revolution. Nearly all single-cylinder crankshafts incorporate balancing

weights to reduce this. While these weights can balance the crankshaft completely, they cannot

completely balance the motion of the piston, for two reasons. The first reason is that the balancing

weights have horizontal motion as well as vertical motion, so balancing the purely vertical motion of

the piston by a crankshaft weight adds a horizontal vibration. The second reason is that, considering

now the vertical motion only, the smaller piston end of the connecting rod (little end) is closer to the

larger crankshaft end (big end) of the connecting rod in mid-stroke than it is at the top or bottom of the

stroke, because of the connecting rod's angle. So during the 180° rotation from mid-stroke through

top-dead-center and back to mid-stroke the minor contribution to the piston's up/down movement from

the connecting rod's change of angle has the same direction as the major contribution to the piston's

up/down movement from the up/down movement of the crank pin.

Class 34 Monday, March23, balancing of multi cylinder inline engines.

In multi-cylinder engines the mutual counteractions of the various components in the Crank shaft

assembly are one of the essential factors determining the selection of the Crank shafts configuration

and with it the design of the engine itself. The inertial forces are Balanced if the common centre of

gravity for all moving crankshaft-assembly components lies at the crankshaft's midpoint, i.e. if the

crankshaft is symmetrical (as viewed from the front). The crankshaft's symmetry level can be defined

using geometrical representations of 1st- and 2nd-order forces (star diagrams). The 2nd order star

diagram for the four-cylinder in-line engine is asymmetrical, meaning that this order is characterized

by substantial free inertial Forces.

Introduction, types of governors.

A centrifugal governor is a specific type of governor that controls the speed of an engine by

regulating the amount of fuel (or working fluid) admitted, so as to maintain a near constant speed

whatever the load or fuel supply conditions. It uses the principle of proportional control.

It is most obviously seen on steam engines where it regulates the admission of steam into the

cylinder(s). It is also found on internal combustion engines and variously fuelled turbines, and in some

modern striking clocks.

Class 38 Friday, March 27 Characteristics of centrifugal governors

Classification of governors:

Governors are classified based upon two different principles. These are:

1. Centrifugal governors

2. Inertia governors

Height of governor

It is the vertical distance between the centre of the governor halls and the point of intersection between

the upper arms on the axis of spindle is known as governor height. It is generally denoted by h.

Sleeve lift

The vertical distance the sleeve travels due to change in the equilibrium Speed is called the sleeve lift.

The vertical downward travel may be termed as Negative lift

Isochronisms

This is an extreme case of sensitiveness. When the equilibrium speed is constant for all radii of

rotation of the balls within the working range, the governor is said to be in isochronisms. This means

that the difference between the maximum and minimum equilibrium speeds is zero and the

sensitiveness shall be infinite.

Class 39 Monday, March 30

Gravity controlled and spring controlled centrifugal governors

Class 40 Tuesday, March 31, gravity controlled and spring controlled centrifugal governors

Class 41 Wednesday, April 1, hunting of centrifugal governors.

The phenomenon of continuous fluctuation of the engine speed above and below the mean speed is

termed as hunting. This occurs in over- sensitive or isochronous governors. Suppose an isochronous

governor is fitted to an engine running at a steady load. With a slight increase of load, the speed will

fall and the sleeve will immediately fall to its lowest position. This shall open the control valve wide

and excess supply of energy will be given, with the result that the speed will rapidly increase and the

sleeve will rise to its higher position. As a result of this movement of the sleeve, the control valve will

be cut off; the supply to the engine and the speed will again fall, the cycle being repeated indefinitely.

Such a governor would admit either more or less amount of fuel and so effect would be that the engine

would hunt.

Brakes and dynamometers:

A brake is a device by means of which artificial frictional resistance is applied to a moving machine

member, in order to retard or stop the motion of a machine. In the process of performing this function,

the brake absorbs either kinetic energy of the moving member or potential energy given up by objects

being lowered by hoists, elevators etc. The energy absorbed by brakes is dissipated in the form of heat.

This heat is dissipated in the surrounding air (or water which is circulated through the passages in the

brake drum) so that excessive heating of the brake lining does not take place. The design or capacity

of a brake depends upon thefollowing factors :

Class 48 Monday ,April 13

Introduction, Law of friction

In order to determine the coefficient of friction for well lubricated full journal bearings, the following

empirical relation established by McKee based on the experimental data, may be used.

Class 49 Tuesday, April 14

And types of lubrication,

The lubricants are used in bearings to reduce friction between the rubbing surfaces and to carry away

the heat generated by friction. It also protects the bearing against corrosion. All lubricants are

classified into the following three groups :

1. Liquid, 2. Semi-liquid and 3. Solid.

Class 50 Wednesday , April 15

types of brakes,

The brakes, according to the means used for transforming the energy by the braking element, are

classified as :

1. Hydraulic brakes e.g. pumps or hydrodynamic brake and fluid agitator,

2. Electric brakes e.g. generators and eddy current brakes, and

3. Mechanical brakes.

Class 51 Friday ,April 17

and front wheels of a four wheeler

The energy absorbed by the brake and transformed into heat must be dissipated to the surrounding air

in order to avoid excessive temperature rise of the brake lining. The *temperature rise depends upon

the mass of the brake drum, the braking time and the heat dissipation capacity of the brake. The

highest permissible temperatures recommended for different brake lining materials are given as

follows

1. For leather, fiber and wood facing = 65 – 70°C

2. For asbestos and metal surfaces that are slightly lubricated = 90 – 105°C

3. For automobile brakes with asbestos block lining = 180 – 225°C

Class 53 Monday, April 20

Dynamometers,

A dynamometer is an instrument for measuring the power exerted by a source or the amount of power

consumed by a load.

Absorption type: This type of dynamometer measures torque (and power) by dissipating mechanical

energy and are suitable for power measurement of engines (such as internal combustion and gas

turbine engines) and electrical motors (ac and dc motors).

Driving type:

This type of dynamometer measures torque (and power) and supply energy to operate the device being

tested.

Class 54 Tuesday, April 21

Belt transmission dynamometer,

Water-brake dynamometer is similar to a Prony brake but employs fluid friction (rather than dry

friction) to dissipate energy.

Class 55 Wednesday, April 22

Torsion dynamometer,

Torsion dynamometers in combination with inertia less indicators are preferable to those of the

pendulum type for use in machines intended for high-speed loading and deformations. Pendulum

dynamometers are preferably used in the best machines for testing materials with static loads. The

existing designs of torsion dynamometers have as yet no substantial advantages as compared with

those of the pendulum type.

Class 56Thursday, April 23

Hydraulic dynamometer

The hydraulic brake system consists of a hydraulic pump (usually a gear-type pump), a fluid reservoir,

and piping between the two parts. Inserted in the piping is an adjustable valve, and between the pump

and the valve is a gauge or other means of measuring hydraulic pressure. In simplest terms, the engine

is brought up to the desired RPM and the valve is incrementally closed. As the pumps outlet is

restricted, the load increases and the throttle is simply opened until at the desired throttle opening.

Unlike most other systems, power is calculated by factoring flow volume (calculated from pump

design specifications), hydraulic pressure, and RPM. Brake HP, whether figured with pressure,

volume, and RPM, or with a different load cell-type brake dyno, should produce essentially identical

power figures. Hydraulic dynos are renowned for having the quickest load change ability, just slightly

surpassing eddy current absorbers. The downside is that they require large quantities of hot oil under

high pressure and an oil reservoir.
