    A Hybrid Actuation System for Enhancing the Performance Metrics Related to Kinesthetic-Type Haptic Devices
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2025) Kucukoglu, Sefa Furkan; Can Dede, Mehmet ismet
    High torque to volume ratio, fast response, and high dynamic range are some of the desired performance metrics for kinesthetic-type haptic device actuation systems. In this article, we present a hybrid actuation system consisting of an active actuator and a magnetorheological fluid-based brake (MRF brake). MRF brake's tradeoffs, namely, off-state torque and slow response (compared to an electric motor), are investigated and resolved by this hybrid actuation system. First, the transient behavior of the MRF brake is investigated and an mathematical model is proposed to mimic its transient response behavior. It is found that the performance of the proposed model performs better than the conventionally used first-order transfer function. Second, hybrid actuation system is constructed. The active actuator is used for compensating for the speed of the response and the off-state torque based on the proposed mathematical model of the MRF brake. It is measured that the off-state torque is largely eliminated from 0.178 to 0.008 N center dot m, the dynamic range is enlarged from 15 to 42.4 dB, and its time constant is improved from 69.6 to 4.4 ms when the hybrid actuation system is used instead of just an MRF brake.

    Effects of Glass-Fiber Sizings on the Strength and Energy Absorption of the Fiber/Matrix Interphase Under High Loading Rates
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2001) Tanoğlu, Metin; McKnight, Steven H.; Palmese, Giuseppe R.; Gillespie, John W.
    The interphases of various sized E-glass-fiber/epoxy-amine systems were tested at displacement rates in the range 230-2450 μm/s by a new experimental technique (dynamic micro-debonding technique). By this method, the rate-dependent interphase properties, apparent shear strength and absorbed energies due to debonding and frictional sliding, were quantified. The systems include unsized, epoxy-amine compatible, and epoxy-amine incompatible glass fibers. The high displacement rates that induce high-strain-rate interphase loading were obtained by using the rapid expansion capability of piezoelectric actuators (PZT). The results of dynamic micro-debonding experiments showed that the values of interphase strength and specific absorbed energies varied in a manner that is dependent on the sizing and exhibited significant sensitivity to loading rates. The unsized fibers exhibit greater frictional sliding energies that could provide better ballistic resistance, while the compatible sized fibers show higher strength values that improve the structural integrity of the polymeric composites. In addition, significantly higher amounts of energy are absorbed within the frictional sliding regime compared to debonding. By using the experimental data obtained, a case study was performed to reveal the importance of the interphase related micro damage modes on energy absorption (and therefore ballistic performance) of glass/epoxy composite armor.
