Title: COMPENSATION OF FREQUENCY RESPONSE FUNCTION MEASUREMENTS BY INVERSE RCSA
Author: Satyanarayana, Harsha
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Engineering
Description: The stability lobe diagram is a graphical device used to select stable cutting conditions in machining. The generation of the stability lobe diagram requires the tool-holder-spindle-machine frequency response function (FRF). Therefore, the accurac...

Title: Controlling force and displacement: Instrumentation design and application in thermal actuation and nanoindentation
Author: Fan, Chunjie
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Mechanical engineering
Description: The motivation of this research is to build systems that precisely control displacement in the presence of external load (both linear and rotation force). To achieve this, two experimental platforms have been created. Those instruments incorporate...
