Mechanik Solution 9 Mechanik HS 2018 Solution 9. Prof. Gino Isidori Exercise 1. Rolling cones In the following exercise we consider a circular cone of height h, density ρ, mass m and opening angle α. (a) Determine the inertia tensor in the representation of the axes of Fig.1. (b) Compute the kinetic energy of the cone rolling on a level plane. (c) Repeat the exercise, only this time the cone's tip is fixed to a point on the z axis such that its longitudinal axis is parallel with the plane. Figure 1: The cone with the reference frame for Exercise 1(a). Solution. (a) We start with the inertia around the z-axis. To this end, we have to compute: Z ZZZ 2 2 3 Iz = ρ (x + y )dV = ρ r dz dr dφ Z 2π Z R Z h π = ρ dφ r3dr dz = ρhR4 (S.1) 0 0 hr=R 10 3 = mh2 tan2 α : 10 where we used R = h tan α and m = πhR2ρ/3 in the last step. By the symmetry of the problem, the other two moments of inerta are identical to each other. So it suffices to compute: Z ZZZ 2 2 2 2 2 I1 = ρ (y + z )dV = ρ (r sin φ + z )r dz dr dφ Z 2π Z R Z h = ρ dφ rdr (r2 sin2 φ + z2)dz 0 0 hr=R (S.2) π = ρ hR2(R2 + 4h2) 20 3 = mh2 tan2 α + 4 : 20 1 Figure 2: The rolling cone in part a) of the problem. (b) The kinetic energy is given by: 1 1 1 T = I !2 + I !2 + I !2 : (S.3) 2 1 1 2 2 2 2 3 3 Now consider the point in the center of the cone's base. It is moving on a circle around the axis perpendicular to the plane, with the radius h · cos α, as you can see from Fig.2. Its velocity is thus: _ vB = φh cos α : (S.4) Next we apply the rolling condition. From the smaller triangle in the Figure, we can see that: vB = !R cos α : (S.5) Equating the two expressions yields: h ! = φ_ : (S.6) R The rotation axis of the cone points along the line where it touches the plane. The projections of this vector onto the principle axes are: !3 = ! cos α ; !2 = 0 ;!1 = ! sin α : (S.7) We are now ready to insert all these expressions into (S.3) to find: 1 T = I !2 + I !2 + I !2 2 1 1 2 2 3 3 1 3 1 3 = mh2(tan2 α + 4)!2 + mh2 tan2 α !2 2 20 1 2 10 3 3 3 (S.8) = mh2!2 sin2 α(tan α2 + 4) + mh2!2 sin2 α 40 20 3 sin4 α = mh2!2 + 6 sin2 α : 40 cos2 α Using eq. (S.6), we can rewrite: 3 h2 R2 R2 3 T = mh2φ_2 sin2 α + 6 cos2 α = mh2φ_2 1 + 5 cos2 α : (S.9) 40 R2 h2 h2 40 (c) Now the axis of rotation is from the cones apex to the point where it touches the plane. _ _ The touching point moves with vA = h · φ = !R cos α. We therefore have ! = φ/ sin α and we can write: h ! = ! sin α = φ_ ; ! = 0 ;! = ! cos α = φ_ : (S.10) 1 2 3 R 2 Putting things together, we obtain: 1 3 1 3 T = mh2 tan2 α + 4 !2 + mh2 tan2 α !2 2 20 1 2 10 3 (S.11) 3 R2 R2 h2 3 R2 = mh2φ_2 + 4 + 2 · = mh2φ_2 6 + : 40 h2 h2 R2 40 h2 Exercise 2. Scattering on ice Consider a point-like particle of mass m hitting a bar of length l and mass M. Both objects are fixed to the plane described by z = 0 and the particle hits the bar with the impact parameter d, see Fig.3. After the elastic scattering, the particle is at rest. (a) Use conservation laws to determine the motion of the bar after the scattering. (b) Determine the ratio m=M for which the collision is elastic and discuss its dependence of v and d. l/2 y M v m x d Figure 3: The initial configuration of Exercise 2. Solution. (a) The collision is elastic, so energy and momenta (both linear and angular) are conserved. Conservation of linear momentum yields: Mvs = mv : (S.12) From the conservation of angular momentum, we find: Is! = mvd : (S.13) The inertia can be computed with: Z l=2 2 1 2 Is = 2 ρ r dV = Ml : (S.14) 0 12 Therefore we find for the angular velocity: mvd ! = 12 : (S.15) Ml2 Thus the bar rotates with the angular frequency ! and moves with the velocity vs = mv=M. 3 (b) To compute the mass ratio m=M, we consider the kinetic energy of the puck before collision: mv2 T = : (S.16) 1 2 After the collision, this energy is completely transferred to the bar, which has a kinetic and rotational energy: 1 T = Mv2 + I !2 : (S.17) 2 2 s s Equating the two expressions leaves us with: 1 mv2 = Mv2 + Ml2!2 : (S.18) s 12 We have computed the expressions for ! and vs already, so we can quickly insert them to find: m 1 = : (S.19) M 1 + 12(d=l)2 First, it should be noted that the velocity of the puck does not matter; the result is completely independent of v. It does however depend on the impact parameter d. The term 12d2=l2 in the denominator of our result accounts for the rotational energy: When the bar is hit right in the middle (d = 0), then the equation becomes m = M. Note that in this case, no rotation of the bar occurs. When the puck strikes the bar on the outermost edge (d = l=2), the mass ratio needs to be M = 4m for the collision to be elastic. 4 Exercise 3. Earth's nutation Earth is not a perfect sphere but to a good approximation described as a rotational ellipsoid with the half-axes being: a = b = 6378 km ; c = 6357 km : (1) Since earth's rotation axis is not aligned with its figure axis, it performs a swaying motion called nutation. Compute the period of nutation under the assumption that the density is homogeneous. Compare your result to the observed value Tobs = 433 d. Is this the number you find? If not, what might be the reasons? Solution. The derivation of the nutation frequency can be found in the lecture notes. One solves the Euler equations (5.15) for the symmetric top I2 = I1 and finds !3 = const. Then, one obtains the equations of motion for the other two angular velocities, !_ 1 = Ω!2 ; (S.20) !_ 2 = −Ω!1 : where I1 − I3 Ω = !3 : (S.21) I1 This is equation (5.18). The angular velocity Ω is the nutation frequency. We now need the expressions I1 and I3. We start at: Z Z 2 2 2 I3 = dV ρ r = ρ dx dy dz(x + y ) : (S.22) It is useful to make the substitutions x~ = x=a y~ = y=b z~ = z=c (S.23) transforming the ellipsoid into the unit sphere. The integral becomes: Z 2 2 2 2 @(x; y; z) I3 = ρ a x~ + b y~ dx~ dy~ dz~ : (S.24) @(~x; y;~ z~) The Jacobian evaluates to: @(x; y; z) J = = abc : (S.25) @(~x; y;~ z~) We then find: Z 1 Z 2π Z π 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 I3 = abc ρ (a r cos θ sin φ + b r sin θ sin φ)r sin φ dφ dθ dr 0 0 0 Z 1 Z 2π Z π = abc ρ (a2 cos2 θ + b2 sin2 θ)r4 sin3 φ dφ dθ dr (S.26) 0 0 0 4π = abc ρ a2 + b2 : 15 We can now replace the density with the mass: 3M ρ = : (S.27) 4πabc 5 With this we find: 1 2 I = M(a2 + b2) = M(a2) : (S.28) 3 5 5 By symmetry, we have: 1 I = M(a2 + c2) : (S.29) 1 5 Plugging these results into eq (S.21), we obtain: 2 2 a − c Ω = !3 : (S.30) a2 + c2 Finally, we can insert the rotational frequency of earth, !3 = 2π=d and insert the values for a and c to obtain: 2π T = ≈ 304 d : (S.31) Ω The reason why this number is off from the measured value is the fact that earth is neither a perfect ellipsoid, nor homogeneous in mass. In fact, it is not even a rigid body: It has a liquid core and water on the surface. 6.

It is based on using three classes of asymptotic solutions: straight-line rolling, spinning about a vertical diameter and tumbling solutions. Their linear stability analysis is given and it is complemented with computer simulations of solutions starting in the vicinity of the asymptotic solutions. The results on asymptotic solutions and their linear stability apply also to an annulus and to a hoop.

INTRODUCTION The problem of a disk rolling (without sliding) in a plane is integrable [1, 4, 9, 15]. It is described in the Euler angles by four dynamical equations and this system admits three additional integrals of motion. It can be in principle reduced to a single quadrature. The difficulty is, however, that only the energy integral is given explicitly, while two other integrals, of angular momentum type, are defined implicitly as constants of integrations for the Legendre equation for the dependence of ω3 on cos θ [22] and [9, §8].

  • Rolling Motion: Experiments and Simulations Focusing on Sliding Friction Forces
    Rolling motion: experiments and simulations focusing on sliding friction forces Pasquale Onorato, Massimiliano Malgieri and Anna De Ambrosis Dipartimento di Fisica Università di Pavia via Bassi, 6 27100 Pavia, Italy Abstract The paper presents an activity sequence aimed at elucidating the role of sliding friction forces in determining/shaping the rolling motion. The sequence is based on experiments and computer simulations and it is devoted both to high school and undergraduate students. Measurements are carried out by using the open source Tracker Video Analysis software, while interactive simulations are realized by means of Algodoo, a freeware 2D-simulation software. Data collected from questionnaires before and after the activities, and from final reports, show the effectiveness of combining simulations and Video Based Analysis experiments in improving students’ understanding of rolling motion. Keywords Rolling motion, friction force, collisions, video analysis, simulations, and billiard. Introduction As it is well known, rolling motion is a complex phenomenon whose full comprehension involves the combination of several fundamental physics topics, such as rigid body dynamics, friction forces, and conservation of energy. For example, to deal with collisions between two rolling spheres in an appropriate way requires that the role of friction in converting linear to rotational motion and vice-versa be taken into account (Domenech & Casasús, 1991; Mathavan et al. 2009; Wallace &Schroeder, 1988). In this paper we present a sequence of activities aimed at spotlighting the role of friction in rolling motion in different situations. The sequence design results from a careful analysis of textbooks and of research findings on students’ difficulties, as reported in the literature.

  • Rolling Rolling Condition for Rolling Without Slipping
    Rolling Rolling simulation We can view rolling motion as a superposition of pure rotation and pure translation. Pure rotation Pure translation Rolling +rω +rω v Rolling ω ω v -rω +=v -rω v For rolling without slipping, the net instantaneous velocity at the bottom of the wheel is zero. To achieve this condition, 0 = vnet = translational velocity + tangential velocity due to rotation. In other wards, v – rω = 0. When v = rω (i.e., rolling without slipping applies), the tangential velocity at the top of the wheel is twice the 1 translational velocity of the wheel (= v + rω = 2v). 2 Condition for Rolling Without Big yo-yo Slipping A large yo-yo stands on a table.

Abstract The rolling wheel deflectometer (RWD) offers the benefit to measure pavement deflection without causing any traffic interruption or compromising safety along tested road segments. This study describes a detailed field evaluation of the RWD system in Louisiana in which 16 different test sites representing a wide array of pavement conditions were tested. Measurements were used to assess the repeatability of RWD measurements, the effect of truck speeds, and to study the relationship between RWD and falling weight deflectometer (FWD) deflection measurements and pavement conditions. Based on the results of the experimental program, it was determined that the repeatability of RWD measurements was acceptable with an average coefficient of variation at all test speeds of 15 percent.

  • In Use Determination of Aerodynamic and Rolling Resistances of Heavy-Duty Vehicles
    sustainability Article In Use Determination of Aerodynamic and Rolling Resistances of Heavy-Duty Vehicles Dimitrios Komnos 1,2, Stijn Broekaert 3 , Theodoros Grigoratos 3 , Leonidas Ntziachristos 2 and Georgios Fontaras 3,* 1 FINCONS Group, 20871 Vimercate, Italy; [email protected] 2 Mechanical Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, 54124 Thessaloniki, Greece; [email protected] 3 European Commission Joint Research, 21027 Ispra, Italy; [email protected] (S.B.); [email protected] (T.G.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: A vehicle’s air drag coefficient (Cd) and rolling resistance coefficient (RRC) have a sig- nificant impact on its fuel consumption. Consequently, these properties are required as input for the certification of the vehicle’s fuel consumption and Carbon Dioxide emissions, regardless of whether the certification is done via simulation or chassis dyno testing. They can be determined through dedicated measurements, such as a drum test for the tire’s rolling resistance coefficient and constant speed test (EU) or coast down test (US) for the body’s air Cd. In this paper, a methodology that allows determining the vehicle’s Cd·A (the product of Cd and frontal area of the vehicle) from on-road tests is presented. The possibility to measure these properties during an on-road test, without the need for a test track, enables third parties to verify the certified vehicle properties in order to preselect vehicle for further regulatory testing. On-road tests were performed with three heavy-duty vehicles, two lorries, and a coach, over different routes. Vehicles were instrumented with wheel torque sensors, wheel speed sensors, a GPS device, and a fuel flow sensor.
