During machining, guideway rollers experience oscillatory excitations because of cutting forces, which necessitate considering their pre-sliding behavior along with the sliding characteristics to compensate for the associated tracking errors using the position control system. This study considers friction effects in pre-sliding and sliding regimes of lubricated linear roller guideway systems to provide an accurate dynamic model of the machine tool element. To model the dynamic characteristics of frictional contact in the lubricated linear roller guideway, the LuGre model, commonly used in the machine tool positioning control system to estimate the compensating drive force, is modified considering the roller-raceway contact physics and the lubricant film dynamics. The proposed model also inc...

Given the dynamic interaction of interfaces, along with vertical and horizontal oscillations, in these sliding lubricated line contacts, it is necessary to investigate their dynamic friction and normal dynamic behavior with coupling effects between them. This paper presents a new method to model the nonlinear normal behavior of sliding lubricated line contacts and have a precise and complete description of the nonlinear dynamic behavior of such components in a mixed lubrication regime without using the complicated theories in a systematic procedure. The nonlinear normal model was developed according to Taylor series expansion of oil film and asperity forces. The model was completely consistent with the transient form of elastohydrodynamic and asperity contact differential equations (the original model). By using the least mean square technique, the Taylor series coefficients of the nonlinear model in the time domain were identified. In order to select the terms that had dominant effects on the nonlinear oil film forces, the subset selection method was used. The results were so close to the predicted responses based on the original and identified nonlinear model.

The inlet starvation is considered by incorporating potential flow method. Results show that starvation has pronounced effect on the lubricant film thickness, friction, and applied load on contact by up to 32%. Localised pressure values may vary by up to 100%. The severity of starvation effect is frequency dependent. It is also revealed that the starvation effect can be controlled by the amount of preload on linear guideway.

Understanding their dynamic response is essential for objectively controlling their behavior and performance in operation. Due to highly loaded lubricated contacts, mixed-elastohydrodynamic regime is dominant. The mixed-elastohydrodynamic film maintains the coupling between horizontal degree of freedom (feed velocity) and vertical degree of freedom (loading direction). This paper presents a novel tribo-dynamic solution for linear guideways, taking in to account the lubricant effects and coupling between horizontal and vertical degrees of freedom. An analytical tribology model is used implicitly within the dynamic model. For in-depth tribological quantities including pressure and film thickness distribution, an explicit full numerical solution for mixed-elastohydrodynamic is utilized. Results show that the coupled solution of vertical and horizontal degrees of freedom taking in to account lubricated conta...

Most of the model updating techniques neglects damping and so amplitudes of vibration at resonance and antiresonance frequencies cannot be predicted by using of these updated models. In dynamic design of structures predicting of these properties is necessary. This paper presents a new technique to create an accurate finite element (FE) updated model of complex assembly structures consisting of substructures and real joint by considering damping of them. Given the fact that modal testing of real joints (such as bolt with some washers) are almost impossible. The updated model of assembly structure is obtained in four steps. In the first step, mass and stiffness matrix of substructures, joint and assembly structure are updated using modal data and Eigen-sensitivity approach. In the second step,...
