Abstract The aim of the present research was to develop a mathematical model for estimating the amount of viscous gas generated as a function of weather conditions. Due to the lack of models for predicting gas formation caused by sudden changes in weather conditions in the literature, such a model was developed in this study using the parameters of landfills recorded for over a year. The effect of temperature on landfill gas production has proved to be of particular interest. We constructed an algorithm for calculating the amount of the produced gas. The model developed in this study could improve the power control of the landfill power plant.

Abstract In this study, dynamical parameters of the cycloidal gearbox working at the constant angular velocity of the input shaft were investigated in the multibody dynamics 2D model implemented in the Fortran programming language. Time courses of input and output torques and forces acting on the internal and external sleeves have been shown as a function of the contact modelling parameters and backlash. The analysis results in the model implemented in Fortran were compared with the results in the 3D model designed using MSC Adams software. The values of contact forces are similar in both models. However, in the time courses obtained in MSC Adams there are numerical singularities in the form of peaks reaching 500 N for the forces at external sleeves and 400 N for the forces acting at internal sleeves, whereas in the Fortran model, there are fewer singularities and the maximum values of contact forces at internal and external sleeves do not exceed 200 N. The contact damping and discretisation level (the number of discrete contact points on the cycloidal wheels) significantly affect the accuracy of the results. The accuracy of computations improves when contact damping and discretisation are high. The disadvantage of the high discretization is the extended analysis time. High backlash values lead to a rise in contact forces and a decrease in the force acting time. The model implemented in Fortran gives a fast solution and performs well in the gearbox optimisation process. A reduction of cycloidal wheel discretisation to 600 points, which still allows satisfactory analysis, could reduce the solution time to 4 min, corresponding to an analysis time of 0.6 s with an angular velocity of the input shaft of 52.34 rad/s (500 RPM).

Abstract In electric and hybrid vehicles, it is possible to recover energy from the braking process and reuse it to drive the vehicle using the batteries installed on-board. In the conditions of city traffic, the energy dissipated in the braking process constitutes a very large share of the total resistance to vehicle motion. Efficient use of the energy from the braking process enables a significant reduction of fuel and electricity consumption for hybrid and electric vehicles, respectively. This document presents an original method used to estimate the efficiency of the regenerative braking process for real traffic conditions. In the method, the potential amount of energy available in the braking process was determined on the basis of recorded real traffic conditions of the analysed vehicle. The balance of energy entering and leaving the battery was determined using the on-board electric energy flow recorder. Based on the adopted model of the drive system, the efficiency of the regenerative braking process was determined. The paper presents the results of road tests of three electric vehicles, operated in the same traffic conditions, for whom the regenerative braking efficiency was determined in accordance with the proposed model. During the identification of the operating conditions of the vehicles, a global positioning system (GPS) measuring system supported by the original method of phenomenological signal correction was used to reduce the error of the measured vehicle’s altitude. In the paper, the efficiency of the recuperation process was defined as the ratio of the accumulated energy to the energy available from the braking process and determined for the registered route of the tested vehicle. The obtained results allowed to determine the efficiency of the recuperation process for real traffic conditions. They show that the recuperation system efficiency achieves relatively low values for vehicle No. 1, just 21%, while the highest value was achieved for vehicle No. 3, 77%. Distribution of the results can be directly related to the power of electric motors and battery capacities of the analysed vehicles.

Abstract In this study, the Soret and Dufour effects in a composite stenosed artery were combined with an analysis of the effect of varying viscosity on copper nanofluids in a porous medium. Blood viscosity, which changes with temperature, is taken into account using the Reynolds viscosity model. The finite difference approach is used to quantitatively solve the governing equations. For use in medical applications, the effects of the physical parameters on velocity, temperature and concentration along the radial axis have been investigated and physically interpreted. The results are graphically displayed and physically defined in order to facilitate comprehension of the various phenomena that occur in the artery when nanofluid is present. It is observed that the Soret effect increases the rate of heat transfer but decreases the rate of mass transfer. The new study enhances knowledge of non-surgical treatment options for stenosis and other abnormalities, hence reducing post-operative complications. Additionally, current research may have biomedical applications such as magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), which provide a picture of an artery and enable identification of any anomalies, and thus may be useful

Abstract This paper presents the synthesis of a pneumatic control system for a selected configuration of the transport path for the delivery of rolling elements to spiral storage in inter-operational transport. The sequential control system sets the state of the manifolds to ensure a flow of workpieces to serve the subsequent storage. The essential module of the control system is the memory block. It is developed based on a storage filling sequence graph. The filling level of the storages can be monitored in one or two points using sensors. The rolling element displacement control sensors work together with appropriately designed systems to execute the delay of the rising and falling edge input signal. By using a two-level control of the filling level of the storages, it is possible to control the emptying status of the storages as a function of the technological time of removal of the items from the storage between the two control points. Control systems were synthesised and verified using Festo’s FluidSim computer programme.

Abstract This article focuses on the exact periodic solutions of nonlinear wave equations using the well-known Jacobi elliptic function expansion method. This method is more general than the hyperbolic tangent function expansion method. The periodic solutions are found using this method which contains both solitary wave and shock wave solutions. In this paper, the new results are computed using the closed-form solution including solitary or shock wave solutions which are obtained using Jacobi elliptic function method. The corresponding solitary or shock wave solutions are compared with the actual results. The results are visualised and the periodic behaviour of the solution is described in detail. The shock waves are found to break with time, whereas, solitary waves are found to be improved continuously with time.

Abstract The noises associated with MEMS measurements can significantly impact their accuracy. The noises characterised by random walk and bias instability errors strictly depend on temperature effects that are difficult to specify during direct measurements. Therefore, the paper aims to estimate the fractional noise dynamics of the stationary MEMS gyroscope based on finite length triple estimation algorithm (FLTEA). The paper deals with the state, order and parameter estimation of fractional order noises originating from the MEMS gyroscope, being part of the popular Inertial Measurement Unit denoted as SparkFun MPU9250. The noise measurements from x, y and z gyroscope axes are identified using a modified triple estimation algorithm (TEA) with finite approximation length. The TEA allows a simultaneous estimation of the state, order and parameter of fractional order systems. Moreover, as it is well-known that the number of samples in fractional difference approximations plays a key role, we try to show the influence of applying the TEA with various approximation length constraints on final estimation results. The validation of finite length TEA in the noise estimation process coming from MEMS gyroscope has been conducted for implementation length reduction achieving 50% of samples needed to estimate the noise with no implementation losses. Additionally, the capabilities of modified TEA in the analysis of fractional constant and variable order systems are confirmed in several numerical examples.

Abstract In this paper, a sliding mode controller, which can be applied for second-order systems, is designed. Robustness to external disturbances, finite regulation time and a good system’s behaviour are required for a sliding mode controller. In order to achieve the first two of these three goals, a non-linear, time-varying switching curve is introduced. The representative point (state vector) belongs to this line from the very beginning of the control process, which results in elimination of the reaching phase. The stable sliding motion along the switching curve is provided. Natural limitations such as control signal and system’s velocity constraints will be taken into account. In order to satisfy them, the sliding line parameters will be properly selected. However, a good dynamical behaviour of the system has to be provided. In order to achieve that, the integral time absolute error (ITAE) quality index will be introduced and minimised. The simulation example will verify theoretical considerations.

Abstract This study performed a numerical investigation of the Soret and Dufour effects on unsteady free convective chemically reacting nanofluid flowing past a vertically moving porous plate in the presence of viscous dissipation and a heat source/sink. The equations directing the flow are non-dimensionalised, modified to ordinary differential equations and emerging equations are resolved computationally by using the bvp4c function in MATLAB software. The results obtained from this analysis indicate that the resulting velocity of the nanofluid increases with increasing Grashof number, mass Grashof number and porosity parameter. An increase in the Dufour number increases the fluid temperature, whereas the concentration profile declines with the increase in the Schmidt number. It is also observed that the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number increase with increasing magnetic field parameter, Eckert number and Schmidt number, respectively. The present study reveals the impact of Soret and Dufour effects on heat and mass transfer rates in chemically reacting and viscous dissipating nanofluids.

Abstract We optimise the speed gears in a tractor transmission with KISSsoft software under three constraints: input power torque, transmission system volume and the gear ratio for each speed. This study aimed to optimise the module, face width, gear quality, centre distance, number of teeth, helix angle, addendum modification coefficient and pressure angle for each speed while considering the above constraints based on an optimisation chart. Tooth bending stress, tooth contact stress, contact ratio and specific sliding were considered during optimisation. Additionally, the effects of changes in a module on the gear profiles, overlap ratio, number of teeth and weight of the gear pair were examined. Strength calculations of gear pairs that were optimised and defined for all geometric parameters with KISSsoft were calculated with the mathematical model described in ISO 6336, and results were then compared. Finally, backlash was minimised for all gear pairs as defined with geometric parameters, and all dimensions and tolerances were determined for gear inspection after manufacturing. A concept design was also presented. We conclude that both the KISSsoft results and mathematical model results are within the range of the target value.
