...Frédéric Boyer; Guillaume De Nayer; Alban Leroyer; Michel Visonneau In this article, the finite element simulation of cables is investigated for future applications to robotics and hydrodynamics. The solution is based on the geometrically exact approach of Cosserat beams in finite transformations...

... of surface vessels without feedback is highly sensitive to the hydrodynamic damping model used. Straight line motion is only possible if linear damping or linear plus a cubic damping models are used and as long as the propulsive force is not too large, while larger propulsive forces result in a circular...

...) incorporating two oil films in series: a hydrodynamic one with a squeeze film damper commonly used in turbochargers. The developed fluid bearing code predicts bearing rotational speed (in the case of fully floating design), operating inner and outer bearing film clearances, effective oil viscosity, taking...

... coefficient. The parameters in the oscillator model are computed for each elliptic cylinder. The results of the model match the CFD results not only in the time domain but also in the spectral domain. computational fluid dynamics flow simulation hydrodynamics oscillators van der Waals forces...

... treated to bring the velocity dependent nonlinear hydrodynamic damping term to the left hand side of the equation of motion. Use of these two techniques makes the equation of motion amenable to the application of method IHBC. In order to trace different branches of the response curve and investigate...
