3D printed acoustically programmable soft microactuators
Murat Kaynak, Amit Dolev, Mahmut Selman Sakar
The concept of creating all-mechanical soft microrobotic systems has great potential to address outstanding challenges in biomedical applications, and introduce more sustainable an…
Dynamics of entrapped microbubbles with multiple openings
Amit Dolev, Murat Kaynak, Mahmut Selman Sakar
Microbubbles excited by acoustic fields inside water oscillate, and generate acoustic radiation forces and drag-induced acoustic streaming. These forces can be harnessed in various…
Balancing rotating structures using slow-speed data via optimized parametric excitation and nonlinear feedback
Amit Dolev, Shachar Tresser, Izhak Bucher
The paper presents an improved mass balancing procedure for fast rotating machinery, while it is being rotated at speeds considerably slower than the "critical speeds", where dange…
Analytical, numerical and experimental investigation of a tunable, nonlinear multi-degree-of-freedom parametrically excited amplifier
Amit Dolev, Izhak Bucher
A tunable, multi-degree-of-freedom, parametrically excited amplifier is introduced as an apparatus capable of shifting slow, weak signals to higher frequencies, by exploiting the a…
Optimizing the dynamical behavior of a dual frequency parametric amplifier with quadratic and cubic nonlinearities
Amit Dolev, Izhak Bucher
The paper describes a novel parametric excitation scheme that acts as a tunable amplifier by controlling two pumping signals and two nonlinear feedback terms. By modulating the sti…
Dual frequency parametric excitation of a nonlinear multi degree of freedom amplifier with a digitally modified topology
Amit Dolev, Izhak Bucher
Mechanical or electromechanical amplifiers can exploit the high-Q and low noise features of mechanical resonance, in particular when parametric excitation is employed. Multi-freque…
Dynamic balancing of super-critical rotating structures using slow-speed data via parametric excitation
Shachar Tresser, Amit Dolev, Izhak Bucher
High-speed machinery is often designed to pass several critical speeds, where vibration levels can be very high. To reduce vibrations, rotors usually undergo a mass balancing…
