Abstract
- Abstract: This paper presents a novel device capable of generating three-dimensional vibrations with a single-axis of rotation. The device resembles a vibration motor with an eccentric weight, but the weight is allowed to move up and down in parallel to the axis of rotations. While spinning of the eccentric weight causes lateral vibrations, vertical vibrations are excited by superposing a periodic torque on the rotary shaft. The frequency and magnitude of vertical oscillations can be independently regulated. Since the vertical natural frequency is sensitive to rotational speeds, maximum vertical oscillations can be achieved by properly adjusting the rotational speed according to the excitation frequency. Relations between the excitation torque and the vertical shaking force are examined using the frequency response for the linearized system. Numerical simulations on the original nonlinear system are conducted to verify the performance of vertical oscillations. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
