Abstract In order to better reduce the influence of spring-loaded mass inertia on vehicle suspension performance and make it better adapt to road excitation, this paper proposes a ball screw inertial container suspension configuration with adjustable inertia coefficient. By adjusting the mass of the flywheel part of the passive ball screw inertial container in the radial direction, the rotating radius is changed under the action of centrifugal force, and then the rotating inertia is changed, so that the rotating inertia of the flywheel can be adjusted with the rotating speed of the flywheel it

Inertial parameters of the motor assembly include its mass, CM (center of mass) position, moment of inertia and product of inertia. Taking one vehicle drive motor as the research object, its mass and CM position are measured by using weight method and moment balance method respectively. Its moment of inertia and product of inertia are measured by using three-wire pendulum. On the basis of analyzing the test error, this paper proposed specific measures to reduce the test error.

Abstract:
A modification of inertia (called MiHsC or quantized inertia) has been proposed that assumes that inertia is caused by Unruh radiation, and that this radiation is made inhomogeneous in space by either Rindler horizons caused by acceleration or the distant Hubble horizon. The former predicts the standard inertial mass, and the latter predicts galaxy rotation without dark matter and cosmic acceleration without dark energy. It is proposed here that this model can be derived in an alternative way by assuming that the sum of mass (M), energy (E) and the information content of horizons (I) is conser

The agility and manoeuvrability of a flying animal and the inertial power required to flap the wings are related to the moment of inertia of the wings. The moments of inertia of the wings of 29 bird species and three bat species were determined using wing strip analysis. We also measured wing length, wing span, wing area, wing mass and body mass. A strong correlation (r2=0.997) was found between the moment of inertia and the product of wing mass and the square of wing length. Using this relationship, it was found that all birds that use their wings for underwater flight had a higher than avera

It has been proposed that inertia can be explained as follows: when objects accelerate in one direction, a Rindler horizon forms in the other direction suppressing Unruh radiation on that side and producing a net Unruh radiation pressure that always opposes the acceleration, just like inertia. So far, this model has predicted masses over twice those expected. In this paper, an error in this model is corrected so that its prediction improves to within 29% of the expected Planck mass. It is also shown that inertial mass may be understood qualitatively by applying Carnot’s principle and entropy t

For a manipulator to estimate an object’s inertial parameters—such as mass, center of mass position, and elements of the inertia tensor—it must grasp one side of the object and generate motion while utilizing the resulting forces and torques at its end-effector for estimation.

A larger trajectory raises the risk of collisions, while greater inertial forces could potentially damage the object. This paper introduces an innovative approach that sim

Abstract:
Negative inertia is an unusual and counter-intuitive property of matter, extensively investigated in some of the most exotic branches of physics and engineering at both macroscopic and microscopic levels. Such an exotic property promises a wide range of applications, from Alcubierre drive to acoustic wave manipulation. Here, a novel approach to the realization of negative inertia and the concept of negative-inertia converters are introduced for both translational and rotational motion. The proposed devices, capable of exhibiting negative mass and negative moment of inertia, base their operatio

Abstract:
On the basis of the energodynamic principle of state determinism, it is shown that the measure of the inertial properties of a substance is not its mass, but its momentum, and the accepted form of the laws of Newtonian mechanics needs to be clarified and generalized. The immediate consequences of this circumstance are revealed, which consist in the need to take into account in the fundamental theories of energy the oscillatory motion of matter and the irreversibility of the acceleration process, which requires the introduction of the concept of efficiency of this process.

Abstract:
The most common NEMA Design Classes of AC induction motors have speed-torque characteristics that can give rise to unstable self-excitation of torsional vibration in rotational systems during start-up. A torsional vibration computational model for start-up transients has been developed as a design tool for induction motor applications. Torsional instability can occur at speeds in the positive sloping segment of the motor’s speed-torque curve and is particularly acute when the mass moment of inertia of the load device is more than two times the mass moment of inertia of the motor rotor.

Wouldn't it be nice to have some kind of laboratory hood in which gravity is greatly reduced so we could grow more perfect crystals or do biological experiments without having to go into orbit. There was a report in Science last year which hinted that gravity cancellation or modification just might be possible some day, but I doubt that any of our readers noticed it.

Abstract:
Abstract Center of mass and mass moment of inertia of a solid can be calculated by appropriate integration over the volume of the object. Taper functions estimate tree stem diameter as a function of stem height and dbh. Center of mass and mass moment of inertia about two axes were estimated for 21 loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) trees using nine different taper functions to estimate the volume of integration. Laboratory measurements (from a previous study) of the same 21 trees served as a basis for evaluating and comparing the estimates. The center of mass values determined via the taper equations

Maintaining a spacecraft’s center of mass at the origin of a body-fixed coordinate system is often key to precision trajectory tracking. Typically, the inertia matrix is estimated and verified with preliminary ground testing.

Accurate accident reconstruction requires the knowledge of the mass properties of vehicles, namely the centre of gravity location, the mass and the inertia tensor. Such data are seldom available, especially in case of newly produced electric vehicles. In this paper, vehicle inertia measurements, performed at Politecnico di Milano, refer to a number of electric vehicles. In addition to the “simple” measurement of vehicle inertia, measured mass properties are analysed to derive the proper empirical formulae for the estimation of the centre of gravity height and the moments of inertia.

Our goal is to explore under what conditions, and to what degree, the observation of physical interaction, in the form of motions and/or applied external forces, is indicative of the underlying dynamics that governs it. In this study we consider the cases of passive interaction, where an object free-falls under gravity, and active interaction, where known external perturbations act on an object at contact.

In this paper we study the origin of inertia in a curved spacetime, particularly the spatially flat, open and closed Friedmann universes.

After obtaining covariant expressions for electromagnetic fields due to an accelerating point charge in Friedmann models, we adopt Sciama's law to obtain the inertial force on an accelerating mass m by integrating over the contributions from all the matter in the univ

A manipulator design theory for reduced dynamic complexity is presented. The kinematic structure and mass distribution of a manipulator arm are designed so that the inertia matrix in the equation of motion becomes diagonal and/or invariant for an arbitrary arm configuration. For the decoupled and invariant inertia matrix, the system can be treated as a linear, single-input, single-output system with constant parameters. Consequently, control of the manipulator arm is simplified, and more importantly, the reduced dynamic complexity permits improved control performance. First, the problem of des

For the designs of vehicle dynamic control systems, vehicle yaw inertia and mass are two of the most important parameters.
