This work focuses on modeling, parameter estimation, and real-time position control of a two axis Gimbaled Mirror System (GMS) which is designed and manufactured to move an IR spot generated by an Infra Red Scene Generator System (IRSGS) in two orthogonal axes (elevation and azimuth) within the IR scene which is also generated by the IRSGS. Mathematical models of the GMS, the control system, and the disturbance torque originated from the movements of Flight Motion Simulator (FMS), on which the IRSGS will be mounted, are constructed using MATLAB®/Simulink® and MATLAB/Simulink/SimMechanics®. Parameter estimations of the GMS and control system elements are achieved using MATLAB/Simulink Parameter Estimation Tool®. The controller tuning is performed using the developed mathematical models in MATLAB/Simulink environment. Optimized digital PID controllers are implemented in the real-time control system. Performances of the controllers for both GMS axes are evaluated by both real system tests and simulation runs; and the results of these runs are compared. Controller performances under the effect of disturbances are analyzed by using the mathematical models developed in the MATLAB/ Simulink environment.

Development of a multigrid accelerated euler solver on adaptively refined two- and three-dimensional cartesian grids
Çakmak, Mehtap; Aksel, Mehmet Haluk; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2009)
Cartesian grids offer a valuable option to simulate aerodynamic flows around complex geometries such as multi-element airfoils, aircrafts, and rockets. Therefore, an adaptively-refined Cartesian grid generator and Euler solver are developed. For the mesh generation part of the algorithm, dynamic data structures are used to determine connectivity information between cells and uniform mesh is created in the domain. Marching squares and cubes algorithms are used to form interfaces of cut and split cells. Geome...
Reduced order nonlinear aeroelasticity of swept composite wings using compressible indicial unsteady aerodynamics
Farsadi, Touraj; Rahmanian, Mohammad; Kayran, Altan (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01)
Nonlinear dynamic aeroelasticity of composite wings in compressible flows is investigated. To provide a reasonable model for the problem, the composite wing is modeled as a thin walled beam (TWB) with circumferentially asymmetric stiffness layup configuration. The structural model considers nonlinear strain displacement relations and a number of non-classical effects, such as transverse shear and warping inhibition. Geometrically nonlinear terms of up to third order are retained in the formulation. Unsteady...
Optimum Profile Modifications for the Minimization of Dynamic Transmission Error
ÖZTÜRK, VEYSEL YALIN; Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Özgüven, Hasan Nevzat (2014-08-28)
An optimization study is performed target being the reduction of dynamic transmission error (DTE) for a selected operational range, where the operating torque and speed ranges are defined. For this purpose, two different models, i.e. a single degree of freedom (SDOF) lumped gear dynamics model and a multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) lumped model of a gear pair which is combined with shaft and bearing dynamics are employed. The differences between the optimization results obtained through loaded static transmis...
Singularity robust inverse dynamics of planar 2-RPR parallel manipulators
Ider, SK (SAGE Publications, 2004-07-01)
In planar parallel robots, limitations occur in the functional workspace because of interference of the legs with each other and because of drive singularities where the actuators lose control of the moving platform and the actuator forces grow without bounds. A 2-RPR (revolute, prismatic, revolute joints) planar parallel manipulator with two legs that minimizes the interference of the mechanical components is considered. Avoidance of the drive singularities is in general not desirable since it reduces the ...
Analysis of thin walled open section tapered beams using hybrid stress finite element method
Akman, Mehmet Nazım; Oral, Süha; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, hybrid stress finite element is formulated for the analysis of the isotropic, thin walled, open section beams with variable cross sections. The beam element has two nodes each having seven degrees of freedom. Assumption of stress field is sufficient to determine the element stiffness matrix. Axial, flexural and torsional effects are taken into account in the analysis. The methodology can be applied both to the tapered and the uniform beams. Throughout this study, firstly element cross-sectio...
