Computational Implementation of LuGre Friction Model in a Revolute Joint with Clearance

Kihiu, John; Muvengei, Onesmus; Ikua, Bernard (JKUAT, 2012)

This paper demonstrates how LuGre friction law can be implemented to model the stick-slip friction in revolute clearance joints of a mechanical system. The effective coefficient of friction is represented as a function of ...
Dynamic Analysis of Multi-Body Mechanical Systems with Imperfect Kinematic Joints: A Literature Survey and Review

Ikua, Bernard; Kihiu, John; Muvengei, Onesmus (COETEC, 2017-04-06)

In traditional dynamic modeling of multi-body mechanical systems, the kinematic joints are assumed to be ideal or perfect, i.e., the clearance, friction, wear, and lubrication effects at the joints are neglected in order ...
Dynamic analysis of planar multi-body systems with LuGre friction at differently located revolute clearance joints

Kihiu, J.M.; Ikua, Bernard; Muvengei, Onesmus (Springer Science, 2011-09-26)

In this paper, the dynamic response of a planar rigid multi-body system with stick–slip friction in revolute clearance joints is studied. LuGre friction law is proposed to model the stick–slip friction at the revolute ...
Modeling of Inter - Component and Inter - Domain Dynamic Interactions of an Excavator Using Bond Graphs

Kihiu, J.M.; Muvengei, Onesmus (Global Journals Inc. (USA), 2011-11)

In this paper the interaction of hydraulic and mechanical dynamics, the inter-actuator and inter-link interactions in an excavator are modeled using bond graphs, and then simulated on a MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. Bond ...
Numerical study of parametric effects on the dynamic response of planar multi-body systems with differently located frictionless revolute clearance joints

Kihiu, J.M.; Ikua, Bernard; Muvengei, Onesmus (Elsevier, 2012-07)

This paper numerically investigates the parametric effects of differently located frictionless revolute clearance joints on the overall dynamic characteristics of a multi-body system. A typical planar slider–crank mechanism ...
