The diploma thesis ‚Rubber Torsional Vibration Damper Of a Four-Cylinder Diesel Engine‘ covers all the development phases related to a design of a rubber damper for a specified engine. The individual phases of it are discussed in details throughout the thesis. At first, the construction plan of a crankshaft is given. The computational checks for torsional vibrations and forced torsional vibration are performed then. With regards to it there might be derived the basic parameters and dimensions of a rubber torsional vibration damper. The knowledge of them enables to prepare the constructional plan of a rubber torsional vibration damper. By using this damper construction plan the torsional displacements (deviations) and forced vibrations are calculated. Finally, a mechanical and thermal stress test of this damper is performed and a crankshaft production drawing is produced.

Das Bewegungsdesign stellt einen wichtigen Aspekt beim Betrieb von ungleichmäßig übersetzenden Mechanismen dar. Durch Minimierung von Bewegungsparametern wie der Geschwindigkeit und Beschleunigung ist die Verringerung von Schwingungsamplituden sowie Bauteildeformationen infolge kinetostatischer Kräfte erzielbar. Weiterhin kann hierdurch der Verlauf des Antriebsmoments des Motors beeinflusst werden. Das reduzierte Massenträgheitsmoment J(φ) eines nichtlinear übersetzenden Mechanismus ist stellungsabhängig definiert durch die generalisierte Koordinate φ. Daher stellt die Minimierung von Beschleunigung und Geschwindigkeit mittels konstanter Grenzen über den gesamten Antriebsbereich eine Vereinfachung dar, welche die stellungsabhängige Trägheit außer Acht lässt. Der Beitrag stellt eine Möglichkeit zur Generierung der Grenzwerte für die Beschleunigung und Geschwindigkeit aus den Verläufen des reduzierten Massenträgheitsmoments J(φ) sowie dessen Ableitung nach der generalisierten Koordinate J‘(φ) vor. Die ermittelten Ober- und Untergrenzen dienen als Parameter für einen Optimierungsalgorithmus. Dieser nutzt den Ansatz der harmonischen Synthese um mit Hilfe der linearen Programmierung die Bewegungsfunktion zu generieren. Für einen Mechanismus mit einem Freiheitsgrad wird mittels eines herkömmlichen Ansatzes und mit dem neu vorgestellten Verfahren das optimale Bewegungsgesetz ermittelt. Mittels einer Mehrkörpersimulation werden neben Geschwindigkeit und Beschleunigung auch das resultierende Antriebsmoment und der Energiebedarf bilanziert.

Light vehicle rollover accidents on soft surfaces can be modeled assuming constant drag with linear motion equations and other engineering principles. The concept of using segment average results to evaluate roll mechanics parameters throughout a roll sequence, and specifically, segment duration to evaluate vehicle trajectory between ground impacts is developed. The trajectory model is presented, explained and compared to values obtained by analyzing digital video of rollover crash tests. Detailed film analysis procedures are developed to obtain data from rollover crash tests that are not otherwise documented. Elevation of the center of gravity of vehicles is obtained where instrumentation does not explicitly yield this data. Instantaneous center of gravity elevation data throughout a roll sequence provides the opportunity to calculate descend distances as a vehicle travels from one ground contact to another. This data is used to quantify severity of ground impacts as a vehicle interact with the ground throughout a roll sequence. Segment average analysis is a reasonable method for determining general roll mechanics parameters. Because of the chaotic nature of rollover accidents, the range of effective drag factors for a given roll surface may be quite large. Choosing an average of typical drag factors is a reasonable approach for a first-order approximation although certain parameters may be predicted less accurately than if actual values were known. The trajectory results demonstrate the influence of drag factor descent height calculations. Typical constant drag factors tend to overestimate descent height early in a roll sequence and underestimate descent height later in the sequence. The trajectory model is a useful tool to aid in understanding rollover mechanics although a rolling vehicle may be in contact with the ground for a significant fraction of a roll segment. The model should not be used at locations in roll sequences where there are extremes in translational center of gravity decelerations. These extremes include the segments immediately following overturn where there are large angular accelerations and large differences between the tangential velocity of the vehicle perimeter and the translational velocity of the center of gravity, as well as segments that include vehicle impacts with irregular topography.

One method to increase efficiency, robustness and accuracy of automatic control, is to introduce mathematical models of the system in question to increase performance. With these models, it is possible to predict the behavior of the system, which enables control according to the predictions. The problem here is that if these models do not describe the dynamics of the system well enough, this method could fail to increase performance. To address this problem, one idea is to estimate the dynamics of the system during operation, using methods for system identification, signal processing and sensor fusion. In this thesis, the possibilities of estimating a ship's dynamics during operation have been investigated. The mathematical model describing the dynamics of the ship is a graybox model, which is based on the physical and mechanical relations. This model's properties are therefore described by physical quantities such as mass and moment of inertia, all of which are unknown. This means that, when estimating the model, these physical properties will be estimated. For a systematic approach, first a simulation environment with a 4-degrees-of-freedom ship model has been developed. This environment has been used for validation of system identification methods. A model of a podded propulsion system has also been derived and validated. The methods for estimating the properties of the ship have been analyzed using the data collected from the simulations. For system identification and estimation of ship properties, the influence of measurement noise and potential of detecting a change in dynamics has been analyzed. This has been done through Monte Carlo simulations of the estimation method with different noise realizations in the simulations, to analyze how the measurement noise affects the variance and bias for the estimates. The results show that variance and bias vary a lot between the parameters and that even a small change in dynamics is visible in some parameter estimates when only ten minutes of data have been used. A method based on cumulative summation (CUSUM) has been proposed and validated to analyze if such a method could yield fast and effective detection of system deviations. The results show that the method is rather effective a with robust detection of changes in the dynamics after about four minutes of data collection. Finally, the methods have been validated on data collected on a real ship to analyze the potential of the methods under actual circumstances. The results show that the particular data is not appropriate for this kind of application along with some additional problems that can yield impaired results. / Genom att inkludera matematiska modeller som beskriver ett systems dynamik i styrningsalgoritmer, kan man åstadkomma en automatisk styrning med förbättrad effektivitet, robusthet och noggrannhet. Med dessa modeller går det att förutsäga beteendet hos systemet och därmed öppnas också möjligheten att använda sig av detta i styrningen. Problemet är att om dessa modeller inte beskriver systemets dynamik tillräckligt bra kan prestandan istället sänkas genom dessa metoder. Den här sortens problem kan man lösa genom att aktivt skatta systemets dynamik under körning, med hjälp av metoder för systemidentifiering, signalbehandling och sensorfusion. I denna exjobbsrapport har möjligheterna att skatta ett skepps girdynamik undersökts. Den matematiska modell som beskriver skeppets dynamik är en grålådemodell som baserar sig på fysikaliska och mekaniska samband. Denna modells egenskaper beskrivs därför av fysikaliska storheter så som massa, tröghetsmoment och tyngdpunkt, vilka alla är okända. Detta innebär att vid modellskattning skattas dessa fysikaliska storheter, vilka kan vara av stort intresse. En simuleringsmiljö med en skeppsmodell med fyra frihetsgrader har skapats och använts för att validera metoder för systemidentifiering. En modell av ett roterbart framdrivningssystem har också härletts och inkluderats i simuleringsmodellen. Vid systemidentifiering och skattning av skeppets egenskaper har dels inverkan av mätbrus analyserats samt även möjligheter till att detektera skillnader i dynamik. Detta har gjorts med Monte Carlo-simuleringar av skattningsmetoden med olika brusrealiseringar för att analysera hur mätbrus påverkar variansen och metodfelet hos skattningarna. Resultaten visar att vissa parametrar skattas med större noggrannhet och hos dessa kan därmed en förändring i dynamik identifieras när endast tio minuter av data har använts. En metod baserad på kumulativ summering av residualer har formulerats och validerats, detta för att undersöka om en sådan metod kan ge snabb och effektiv detektion av systemförändringar. Resultat visar på robusthet i att detektera skillnader i dynamik efter ungefär fyra minuter av datainsamling. Slutligen har metoderna validerats på data insamlad på ett riktigt skepp för att undersöka potentialen under verkliga omständigheter. Resultaten visar att just denna data inte är lämplig för denna applikation samt några problem som kan leda till försämrade resultat.

Examensarbetets syfte är att finna en beräkningsgång för ribbdäcksbjälklag så att en spännviddstabell kan skapas. Ett ribbdäcksbjälklag består av stående limträbalkar med en liggande KL-träskiva ovan som fungerar som golv. I detta examenarbete är KL-träskivan 2,4 meter bred och vilar på två limträbalkar. Full samverkan mellan de olika materialen råder. Idag finns det några aktörer på marknaden som levererar liknande typer av bjälklag men det finns ingen beräkningsgång preciserad i Eurokod. Förstudien till examensarbetet har visat på att tillvägagångssättet för att lösa den mest problematiska beräkningen har varit densamma för de företagen vi har kollat på. Svårigheten är att beräkna den effektiva bredden för tvärsnittet. Det finns även olika standarder som gäller för hur stor nedböjningen får vara för ett bjälklag. I examensarbetet utförs beräkningar för att uppfylla de krav som gäller i Sverige samt de krav som gäller i Österrike. Detta görs för att dalamissivträ misstänker att kraven på de österrikiska bjälklagen är högre ställda med avseende på svikt, de vill kunna erbjuda ett styvare bjälklag. I tabellen ska dimensioner anges för att respektive krav ska uppfyllas. De österrikiska kraven har visat sig vara hårdare ställda jämfört med de svenska och kommer därför att kräva en balk av större dimension i de lägre lastfallen. I fallen med större laster kommer balkdimensionerna mellan de olika lastfallen inte att skilja sig. Där har det visast sig att branddimensioneringen varit helt dimensionerande. Tabellen ska vara ett hjälpmedel för företaget Dala massivträ att lättare nå ut till beställare. Beräkningsgången har gjorts i Mathcad, där okända parametrar har lösts ut och beräknats fram. Vissa parametrar har varit fasta utifrån Dala massivträs önskemål, så som KL-träskivans tjocklek och ingående komponenters materialegenskaper. När beräkningarna har gjorts har de kontrollerats så att momentkapacitet och tvärkraftskapacitet är tillräcklig i respektive last fall och spännvidd. Nedböjningen har kontrollerats liksom branddimensioneringen. Har bjälklaget inte uppfyllt hållfastighetsdimensionering eller kraven för svenskstandard alternativt österrikiskstandard har en högre dimension valts på limträbalken. Limträbalk har valts utifrån Setra trävarors standardsortiment. Resultatet av beräkningarna har förts in i en spännviddstabell som byggts upp för att enkelt kunna välja balk utifrån tänkt last fall. Beräknings exempel finns redovisat i en bilaga där ett lastfall och en spännvidd redovisas. Resultatet leder till att varje spännvidd och lastfall får två dimensioner, en för att klara svensk standard och en för att klara österrikiskstandard. I diskussionen diskuteras eventuella felkällor, effekten av tätare placering med limträbalkar och orsaken till en differens i jämförelsen mellan Mathcad och Calculatis. Även resultatet i spännviddstabellen diskuteras. / The purpose of the degree project is to find a calculation path for ribbed deck joists so that a span width table can be created. A ribbed deck joists consists of standing glulam beams with a lying cross laminated timber slab above which functions as a floor. In this thesis, the cross laminated timber board is 2.4 meters wide and rests on two glulam beams. Full cooperation between the different materials prevails. Today, there are some players in the market that deliver these types of floor but there is no calculation rate specified in Eurocode. The preliminary study for the degree project has shown that the approach to solving the most problematic calculation has been the same for the companies we have looked at. The difficulty is to calculate the effective width of the cross section. There are also different standards that apply to how large the deflection may be for a beam. In the thesis work, calculations are performed to meet the requirements that apply in Sweden and the requirements that apply in Austria. Dimensions must be specified in the table for fulfilling the respective requirements. The Austrian requirements have proved to be harder compared to the Swedish ones and will therefore require a beam of greater dimension in the lower load cases. In case with the larger loads, the beam dimensions between the different loads will not differ because it has been shown that the fire has been dimensional. The table should be a tool for the company Dala massivträ to reach the customer more easily. The calculation path has been made in Mathcad, where unknown parameters has been solved and calculated. Some parameters have been fixed based on Dala massivträ´s wishes, such as the thickness of the cross laminated timber board and the material properties of the component parts. Once the calculations have been made, they have been checked so that torque capacity and transverse power capacity are sufficient in the respective load cases and span. The deflection has been checked as well as the fire dimensioning. The flooring has not fulfilled the dimensioning or the requirements for Swedish standard alt. Austrian standard has a higher dimension selected on the glulam beam. Glulam beam has been selected based on Setra's wood products standard range. The result of the calculations has been entered into a span table which has been built up in order to be able to easily select the beam from outside the intended load case. The calculation example is presented in an annex where a load case and a span are reported. The result is that each span and load fall get two dimensions, one to meet the Swedish standard and one to cope with the Austrian standard. In the discussion, is discussed possible sources of error, the effect of denser placement with glulam beams and the cause of a difference in the comparison between Mathcad and Calculatis. The result in the span table is also discussed.
