Analysis of the Dynamic Behavior of Beams Supported by a Visco-Elastic Foundation in Context to Natural Vibrissa
- Rodents use their mystacial vibrissae, e.g., to recognize the shape or determine the surface texture of an object. The vibrissal sensory system consists of two components: the hair shaft and the follicle-sinus complex (FSC). Both components affect the collection of information, but the impacts of the different properties are not completely clear. Borrowing the natural example, the goal is to design a powerful artificial sensor. The influence of a continuous visco-elastic support is analyzed for an artificial sensor following hypotheses about the FSC. Starting with a theoretical treatment of this scenario, the vibrissa is modeled as an Euler-Bernoulli bending beam with a partially continuous visco-elastic support. The numerical simulations are validated by experiments. Using a steel strip as a technical vibrissa and a magneto-sensitive elastomer (MSE) as representation of the artificial continuous visco-elastic support, FSC respectively, the first resonance frequency is determined.
