Recent Submissions

  • Minimizing residual vibrations for non-zero initial states: Application to an emergency stop of a crane 

    Veciana Fontanet, Joaquim Maria; Cardona Foix, Salvador; Català Calderon, Pau (Springer, 2013-11)
    Article
    Open Access
    This paper presents an approach to design command inputs for the reduction of residual vibrations in mechanical systems for nonzero initial states. The technique starts with the development of a standard input shaper in a ...
  • A mathematical model to study railway track dynamics for the prediction of vibration levels generated by rail vehicles 

    Otero Yugat, Jesús; Martínez Miralles, Jordi Ramon; Santos López, M. Antonia de los; Cardona Foix, Salvador (2012-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    This article presents a mathematical model aimed at predicting wheel–rail contact vibration force arising from wheel profile irregularities. Prediction of vibrations caused by a passing train is a basic factor in environmental ...
  • Análisis del efecto del apriete y la rigidez de contacto en la precisión de un mecanismo de levas conjugadas 

    Català Calderon, Pau; Cardona Foix, Salvador; Santos López, M. Antonia de los (2012)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Los mecanismos de levas conjugadas requieren de un ajuste con apriete para compensar las tolerancias de fabricación y montaje y al mismo tiempo evitar la separación de las superficies de las levas y los ...
  • Evaluation of the influence of a planned interference fit on the expected fatigue life of a conjugate cam mechanism- A case study 

    Català Calderon, Pau; Santos López, M. Antonia de los; Veciana Fontanet, Joaquim Maria; Cardona Foix, Salvador (2013-08-01)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Due to dynamic effects, clearances, manufacturing and assembly errors in form-closed cam mechanisms, the follower jump can also occur. For conjugate cam mechanisms a technique to avoid the follower jump without the use of ...
  • Modified adaptive input shaping for maneuvering cranes using a feedback MEM gyroscope with null drift 

    Veciana Fontanet, Joaquim Maria; Cardona Foix, Salvador; Català Calderon, Pau (Springer, 2015-08-04)
    Article
    Open Access
    This paper presents an adaptive algorithm to reduce residual vibrations when the feedback sensor used has null drift along the time. The adaptive approaches are useful to deal with large variations of the system parameters ...
  • Use of single board computers as smart sensors for manufacturing industry 

    Gómez, Agustín; Cuiñas Vázquez, Daniel; Català Calderon, Pau; Xin, Li; Weidong, Li; Lack, Donald; Conway, Steward (2015)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    The continuously growing presence of cyber-physical systems in the industry, especially in the field of processes automation and control, represents the paradigm of the so called fourth industrial revolution, in which the ...
