1. Characterization of a pediatric rotary blood pump
Abstract Introduction A ventricular assist device (VAD) is an electromechanical pump used to treat heart failures. For designing the physiological control system for a VAD, one needs a mathematical model and its related parameters. This paper presents a characterization procedure for determining the model parameter values of the electrical, mechanical, and

2. Finite element modelling to assess the effect of position and size of the piezoelectric layer of a hybrid beam
Abstract A one dimensional finite element model is presented to assess the effect of position and size of the piezoelectric layer of a hybrid beam. The efficient layerwise (zigzag) theory is used for making the finite element model. The 1D beam element has eight mechanical and a variable number of electrical degrees of freedom. The codes are developed in Ma

3. Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Electrostatically Actuated Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes Using Nonlocal Elasticity
AbstractThe paper investigates the effects of application of nonlocal elasticity theory on electromechanical behaviors of single-walled carbon nanotubes under electrostatic actuation. The influences of different dimensions and boundary conditions on the vibration and dynamic instability of the carbon nanotubes are studied, in detail, using this theory. The r

4. Optimal Placement of Piezoelectric Macro Fiber Composite Patches on Composite Plates for Vibration Suppression
AbstractThis work presents a new methodology for the parametric optimization of piezoelectric actuators installed in laminated composite structures, with the objective of controlling structural vibrations. Problem formulation is the optimum location of a Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) actuator patch by means the maximization of the controllability index. The co

5. Finite element modeling for buckling analysis of hybrid piezoelectric beam under electromechanical loads
A one-dimensional finite element model for buckling analysis of hybrid piezoelectric beams under electromechanical load is presented in this work. The coupled zigzag theory is used for making the model. The inplane displacement is approximated as a combination of a global third order variation across the thickness with an additional layer wise linear variati

6. Application of H∞ theory to a 6 DOF flight simulator motion base
The purpose of this study is to apply inverse dynamics control for a six degree of freedom flight simulator motion system. Imperfect compensation of the inverse dynamic control is intentionally introduced in order to simplify the implementation of this approach. The control strategy is applied in the outer loop of the inverse dynamic control to counteract th

7. Effect of parametric uncertainties on the performance of a piezoelectric energy harvesting device
The use of piezoelectric materials for the development of electromechanical devices for the harvesting or scavenging of ambient vibrations has been extensively studied over the last decade. The energy conversion from mechanical (vibratory) to electrical energy is provided by the electromechanical coupling between mechanical strains/stresses and electric char

8. Finite element analysis of actively controlled smart plate with patched actuators and sensors
The active vibration control of smart plate equipped with patched piezoelectric sensors and actuators is presented in this study. An equivalent single layer third order shear deformation theory is employed to model the kinematics of the plate and to obtain the shear strains. The governing equations of motion are derived using extended Hamilton's principle. L

11. Avaliação da disponibilidade energética em atividade física realizada em bicicleta estacionária
Nowadays, the search of better life quality is related, invariably, to the developed practice of physical activity mainly at gyms. Although in these places, there is considerable expenditure of human energy, they are not characterized as an energy management model that can reflect in considerable economy in monthly electric energy consumption. The conception
