Forward Dynamics Analysis of the 6-PUS Mechanism Based on Platform-Legs Composite Simulation

The dynamics analysis plays an important role for the control, simulation and optimization of the parallel manipulators. Normally, the Stewart type manipulators have a platform and several legs. The inverse dynamics can be solved efficiently by taking the advantage of such structural characteristics. However, for the forward dynamics analysis, this structural decomposition still faces challenges from both modeling and computation. In this paper, an efficient approach is proposed for the forward dynamics of the 6-PUS manipulator based on the platform-legs composite simulation. By composite method, the dynamics modeling of the parallel manipulator is separated into the forward dynamics of the platform and the kineto-statics of the legs. The global simulation model can be constructed by connecting the predefined platform model and leg models according to the manipulator＇s topology. Thus, the global simulation can be decomposed into the independent calculations of purely algebraic equations and ordinary differential equations （ODEs）, the computational cost can be reduced and the stability of the simulation can be improved. For the purpose of solving the manipulator＇s forward dynamics accurately, the algebraic-loop problem is discussed and a closed form algorithm is proposed. A numerical example of the 6-PUS manipulator is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The example results show that the modeling efficiency can be improved and the simulation stability can be ensured for decomposing the system equations into purely algebraic equations and ODEs.

An agent-based simulation with NetLogo platform to evaluate forward osmosis process(PRO Mode)

Forward osmosis(FO), as an emerging technology, is influenced by different factors such as operating conditions,module characteristics, and membrane properties. The general aim of this study was to develop a suitable(flexible,comprehensive, and convenient to use) computational tool which is able to simulate osmosis through an asymmetric membrane oriented in pressure retarded osmosis(PRO) mode in a wide variety of scenarios. For this purpose, an agent-based model was created in NetLogo platform, which is an easy-to-use application environment with graphical visualization abilities and well suited for modeling a complex system evolving over time. The simulation results were validated with empirical data obtained from literature and a great agreement was observed. The effect of various parameters on process performance was investigated in terms of temperature,cross-flow velocity, length of the module, pure water permeability coefficient, and structural parameter of the membrane. Results demonstrated that the increase in all parameters, except structural parameter of the membrane and the length of module led to the increase of average water flux. Moreover, nine different draw solutes were selected in order to assess the influence of net bulk osmotic pressure difference between the draw solution(DS) and feed solution(FS)(known as the driving force of FO process) on water flux. Based on the findings of this paper, the performance of FO process(PRO mode) can be efficiently evaluated using the NetL ogo platform.

Numerical Simulation of Float-Over Installation for Offshore Platform

In this paper,a numerical investigation of a float-over installation for an offshore platform is presented to verify the feasibility of the actual installation.The hydrodynamic performance of a T-barge is investigated in the frequency domain,and the coupled motions are analyzed in the time domain.We then compare with those of the model test and determine that the response amplitude operator and the time series agree quite well.The barge exhibits favorable hydrodynamic behavior in the considered sea state,and the equipment loads are allowable.Themooring systemand sway fender forces are within the permissible range.Based on these results,we can verify that the actual installation of the offshore platform is feasible.We accurately simulated many important factors and effectively reduced the risk associated with the offshore installation,which is of great importance.As such,we demonstrate that the numerical simulation of the float-over installation for offshore platforms has practical engineering significance.

Real-time hybrid simulation of structures equipped with viscoelastic-plastic dampers using a user-programmable computational platform

A user-programmable computational/control platform was developed at the University of Toronto that offers real-time hybrid simulation （RTHS） capabilities. The platform was verified previously using several linear physical substructures. The study presented in this paper is focused on further validating the RTHS platform using a nonlinear viscoelastic-plastic damper that has displacement, frequency and temperature-dependent properties. The validation study includes damper component characterization tests, as well as RTHS of a series of single-degree-of-freedom （SDOF） systems equipped with viscoelastic-plastic dampers that represent different structural designs. From the component characterization tests, it was found that for a wide range of excitation frequencies and friction slip loads, the tracking errors are comparable to the errors in RTHS of linear spring systems. The hybrid SDOF results are compared to an independently validated thermal- mechanical viscoelastic model to further validate the ability for the platform to test nonlinear systems. After the validation, as an application study, nonlinear SDOF hybrid tests were used to develop performance spectra to predict the response of structures equipped with damping systems that are more challenging to model analytically. The use of the experimental performance spectra is illustrated by comparing the predicted response to the hybrid test response of 2DOF systems equipped with viscoelastic-plastic dampers.

6-DOF Motion Assessment of A Hydrodynamic Numerical Simulation of A Semisubmersible Platform Using Prototype Monitoring Data

Hydrodynamic numerical simulations are used to conduct structural analyses and inform the design of engineered marine structures.In this paper,a hydrodynamic numerical model of“Nanhai Tiaozhan”(NHTZ)FPS platform was established according to its design specifications.The model was assessed with two sets of field monitoring data representing harsh and conventional sea states.The motion responses of the platform according to the measured data and the hydrodynamic simulation were compared by reviewing their statistical characteristics,distributions,and spectrum characteristics.The comparison showed that the hydrodynamic model could correctly simulate the frequency domain characteristics of the motion responses of the platform.However,the simulation underestimated the reciprocating motions of the floating body and the influence of slow drift on the motion of the platform.Meanwhile,analysis of the monitoring data revealed that the translational degrees of freedom(DOF)and rotational DOF of the platform were coupled,but these coupled motion states were not apparent in the hydrodynamic simulation.
