In this paper, the effect of acceleration on the airflow level posture sensor is explained using a finite element model with the temperature field and the stream field monitored by the sensor as independent variable. By using the finite element method, the temperature field and the stream field in sensing element has been obtained. The results are as follow: (1) The temperature field and the stream field in sensing element deform under the effect of acceleration. (2) The velocity difference of airflow at two point heat sources changes with the acceleration, with the increase in acceleration, the airflow rate difference of two detecting hot wires decreases, difference of current through the thermal resistance wire is increased, the bridge outputs a voltage signal corresponding to the acceleration. (3) Effect of acceleration on the airflow level posture sensor is similar to the solid and liquid pendulum tilt angle sensor, when the acceleration inputs, the sensor can't tell acceleration signal and angle signal. In dynamic use, the interference of acceleration on airflow level posture sensor must be suppressed in order to ensure the use of the precision.

The squeeze-film damping in MEMS devices can be controlled by providing perforations in microstructures. Recently, there are many analytical models to include the perforation effects in squeeze-film damping calculations. However, there is a lack of works in modeling the squeeze-film damping in perforated Torsion Micro-mirror.
This paper presents analytical solutions for the effect of squeeze film damping on a rectangular perforated Torsion Micro-mirrors. We modified the Reynolds equation to extend its applications to squeeze-film air damping of perforated plates by adding a term related to the damping effect of gas flow through holes. The double sine series solution are derived for the linearized Reynolds equation to obtain the pressure distribution under the vibrating plate, and then we calculate the analytical expressions for the spring constant and the damping constant. By comparing the results with the finite element method, the accuracy of the model can be verified.

The lateral impact tester is the key-device to test the naval ship devices' properties of resisting non-contact explosive impact, and used to simulate the shock response of shipboard under naval dual-wave shock. Trial device installed on the top surface, it generates a huge overturning moment on tester and subsequently leans to the one-side of the impact cylinder when the positive wave is shocking the trial device. The vibration of trial device causes the rail of tester to generate periodic positive pressure and friction. To study the effects of output waveform produced when the vibration and friction are impacting on the impact table. This paper analyzed the motion regular of the tester based on finite element method. And there is a discovery: the vibration and overturning moment of trial device itself had no effect on the impact tester displacement almost and slightly effects on velocity of impact table, but has significant effects on the acceleration of the impact table, not only make the acceleration peaks of the positive waves significantly changed, but also the negative waveform appears jaggy. The vibration and overturning moment of trial device greatly increases the friction of the rail, and the friction changed periodically with the changes of vibration of the impact tester. The experimental results of the research have the meaning to guide the design of lateral impact tester.

The transverse impact testing machine is the important equipment for testing naval craft. Against the underwater non-contact explosive impact performance, this used to simulate the hull's response under the positive and negative wave impact. The tested equipment is installed on the impact table. When positive wave impact, the device produce a huge overturning moment to the equipment and at the same time, the device tilt to the impact cylinder side. The rails of impact table produce the periodic positive pressure and friction because of equipment oscillation during the negative wave impact process. To research output waveform of the dovetail guide bounce table, with a finite element method analysis the friction force and motion law of the bounce table. It was found that: the overturning moment acts on the rail make the dovetail guide creates a huge contact force and friction force. The equipment oscillation have a significant effect on output waveform of bounce table, not only the positive wave acceleration peak significantly increasing or decreasing but also make negative wave appear jaggy. Friction force of the dovetail groove reduces the peak speed of the bounce table, make the negative wave process finish in advance and reduce displacement of the bounce table.

A new method is proposed to test the flexural rigidity of woven fabric based on image analysis. The major intention is to enhance the accuracy of virtual clothing via the actual bending stiffness of real fabric. A fabric bending device is developed to collect the bending shape of woven fabrics under the cantilever beam test. Due to the fact that the warping of fabric is inevitable, a mid-curve selected from five target curves representing the bending shape of the fabric is proposed for evaluating the bending performance of woven fabric. The calculations and test methods are validated by experimental observations. The results are further correlated with that of KES-FB2 test. It has been proved that the mid-curve can be employed as an efficient approximation in computing the flexural rigidity of woven fabric.

The study firstly addressed the dynamics of droplets during passive micromixing program using obstacles and porous media by modified lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). The modified Shan-Chen model was introduced in LBM. The simulation results show that, the inlet velocity plays a more important role in the coalescence length than the size of obstacle when droplet passing a cylinder at the microscale. There exists a critical obstacle size, beyond which the big obstacle is unfavorable to generating small droplets. The metal foam is more beneficial to generating smaller droplets than obstacle at the microscale. Big PPI is favorable to the formation of small droplets. The simulation results indicate the great potential of metal foam in generating smaller droplets because its porous stricture effectively reduce the second coalescence of broken droplets.

As shown in the statistics, there are 40% of the damaged cases having relationships with screwed fastenings in the shock tests of the shipboard equipments.

The steady-state response of linear fractional vibration system with harmonic excitation was considered by using the fractional derivative where the time interval is (−∞, t). We adopted the harmonic excitation in the form of complex exponential function, and used the method of undetermined functions to obtain the steady-state response with the same frequency as the excitation. The amplitude-frequency relation and phase-frequency relation were derived explicitly. The results show that the order and the coefficient in the fractional derivative term influence the stiffness and damping of the system, the amplitude-frequency relation and the phase-frequency relation.

To investigate the dynamic performance of spring-loaded pressure relief valve (PRV) under high temperature and high pressure steam (HTHPS) conditions, experiments according to ASME PTC 25 and a new transient numerical simulation method were carried out. The validity of accuracy of the simulation was confirmed by comparing the results of simulation and experiments.

It is found that the sands will bypass the blade and no erosion formed when the Stokes number of particle is smaller than a certain value. With the increase of the Stokes number of particle, the sands begin to impact the blade and erode it, and the erosion area will expand gradually from blade leading edge to entire pressure surface. The most serious erosion must be located at the two sides of the stagnation point.

T branch tunnels are a kind of common underground space. It is very important to study the propagation characteristics of gasoline-air explosions in T branch tunnels, which will not only enrich the theories of gas explosion in confined space, but also lay the theoretical groundwork for disaster alleviation. Based on explosion experiments and numerical simulations, this paper analyzes explosion overpressure, flame velocity and turbulence intensity of gasoline-air explosions in T branch tunnels. Furthermore, a visualization research is conducted on how the flame passes through the branch tunnel. The main contributions of this paper are as follows. 1) It points out that the two major disturbance sources and the changing section-crossing are the main factors affecting explosion propagation; 2) The disturbance sources will lead to turbulence, which will cause explosion overpressure and increase flame velocity considerably; 3) As the flame passes through the branch tunnel, the detonation wave will go through four processes, namely detonation wave deduction, partial flame extinguishment, flame re-ignition and gradual increase. 4) The explosion in confined space could cause gas backflow, multiple explosions, pressure oscillation and multiple pressure peaks.

An aerodynamic optimization design study of a transonic compressor blade is carried out based on the three-dimensional parametric approach of local shape function. To avoid too many design variables and repeated mesh generation of optimized blade compare to the traditional approach in blade optimization. Mesh deformation technique of the reduced control points based on radial basis functions (RBF) is proposed, which combined with gradient based optimization algorithm, to solve the blade optimized problem. Analysis showed that: RBF mesh deformation technology could largely shorten the time of mesh generation without reducing the quality of meshes; the computational time was reduced greatly due to the gradient based optimization algorithm; the optimized blade increases the total pressure ratio by 0.86%, the adiabatic efficiency by 1.79% and the mass flow by 0.6% under the condition of consistent certain pressure outlet. The improvement of blade performance mainly is owing to the decrease of passage shock intensity.

This paper makes a simulation analysis on three kinds of micro droplets jetting dispenser nozzle match type (the cone-cone match, sphere-cone match, sphere-sphere match). The key parameters of coordination including the average working pressure P, nozzle colloid flow time t0 the jet nozzle colloid duration are analyzed in order to acquire the properties of various match type. Conclusions was drawn based on the comparison between the different match type that sphere-sphere coordination is better able to dispense large viscosity colloid and reduce the angle in low viscosity; cone-cone coordination is not suitable for dispensing due to low speed of liquid ejection; spherecone coordination is suitable for dispensing colloid of lower viscosity. These findings are of great significance for the development of on-off valve jet dispensers.

The purpose of this article is to obtain the transient distribution of flow and valve core stress of the hydraulic poppet valve during opening process. Based the dynamic mesh technology and fluid-solid theory, a numerical model was established using the CFD software. Through comparing the steady displacement simulation results with theoretical values, motion situations of flow, it is shown that the stress of a fixed area changes during the opening process of the valve plug, and the pressure gradient is very large in the valve port. There is a “negative pressure” area in the flow field and the size keeps changing with time, which may cause cavitations. Furthermore, the stress distributions are different even though the displacements of the valve plug are the same due to different velocities at different time. These results provide the basis for the design and optimization of hydraulic poppet valves.

Based on finite element software the paper established three dimensional finite element model of premium connection taking screw-liter angle into consideration, simulated the process of making-up exerted by the optimal torque and analyzed the seal characteristic of premium connection exerted by bending load. The results showed that three dimensional finite element method can completely simulate the process of making-up, and the stress changes are consistent with the actual situation. The annular contact stress of primary seal and shoulder exerted by the optimal torque are large enough and normal. The contact stress of the seal will decrease exerted by bending load, but the annular contact stress of seal under bending load is large enough to ensure the seal ability, the contact stress of stretched side shoulder is zero due to a space. Bending loads have a greater impact on the stress distribution of thread, which lead to increasing possibility of thread galling, reducing the strength of the threaded connection.

This study employed different heat dissipation configurations of LED streetlight modules to investigate the changes in luminous flux, correlated color temperature, and temperature of the modules. Heat-dissipation plate-fin and polymerizable liquid matrix thermal conductive material (thermal grease) were used to devise four types of LED streetlight modules. Subsequently, light decay ratio, color shift, and temperature distribution of LED modules were compared and comprehensively analyzed to determine the changes in the efficiency of heat dissipation in the modules. The streetlight modules produced were switched on for long periods, and the results indicated that the module comprising both the plate-fin and thermal grease outperformed the other modules. Combining heat-dissipation plate-fin with thermal grease (a thermal conductor) yielded a product that exhibited a light decay ratio of 87.6% and color shift of approximately 2.5%. An infrared thermometer was then used to measure the temperature at the center point of the modules, showing that the temperatures of the LED modules were exceedingly lower than those of other modules. The results verified that an effective heat dissipation configuration lowered the temperature of LED modules, thereby enhancing the luminous flux and preventing color shift. To verify the validity of the experimental results, we compared the results with those of previous studies [1]–[6]. In addition, the plate-fins were modified in terms of spacing, height, length, thickness, and surface coating to optimize the effects of heat dissipation. This study adopted heat-dissipation plate-fin combined with thermal grease as a thermal conductor and various measurement methods (such as an integrating sphere instrument to measure and verify the light decay ratio and color shift, thermocouples, and infrared thermometer) to verify whether the temperature at various points on the lighting module differed when various heat dissipation configuration was used in the lighting modules. Overall, the experimental results indicated that a superior heat dissipation configuration lowered the overall temperature of LED modules, thereby enhancing the luminous flux and preventing color shift.

In order to design the piezostack precision jetting dispenser applied to microelectronic packaging, ANSYS was introduced to analyze the characteristics of piezostack actuator and displacement amplifier. Firstly, the performance of the piezostack actuator when voltage increased from 0V to 200V was researched. The displacement amplifier parametric model was established and the structural parameters which define its displacement outputting were also discussed. The research indicates that triangular piece length “L0” and actuators spacing “W0” are the major parameters, the displacement changed greatly with them; but preload “F0” and diameter of bolt “D” are the minor parameters. Based upon above rules, the outputting displacement of displacement amplifier is 317μm by ANSYS simulate analysis. And then, the dynamic performance of the displacement amplifier which produced based on optimization design was tested by laser displacement sensor. The experimental results was very close to transient dynamic simulation, and error just 1.1%, which shown the validity of the simulation model. Furthermore, the experiment indicated that maximum output displacement kept the same when working frequency is between 0Hz and 65Hz, but it will drop down as frequency increase gradually. At the same time, to get the maximal displacement outputting, the controlled interval of signal duty cycle would decrease as working frequency increase.

In order to find out the relationship between the bonding current and the bonding strength, four sets of experiments, each contains 200 samples, were done with the bonding current limited to 0.05mA, 0.25mA, 0.45mA and 0.65mA respectively. The qualified rate, mean value and standard deviation of the bonding strength measured subsequently were chosen to judge the influence of the bonding current on the bonding strength. The results show that the bonding strength under lower limiting current is determined by the interfacial region, while under higher limiting current, the bonding strength is determined by the glass. With the increase of the limiting current, the qualified rate and mean value of the bonding strength increase first and then decrease, while the standard deviation of the bonding strength first decreases and then increases. Limiting the bonding current is beneficial to improve the qualified rate and stabilize the bonding strength.

The relationship between ultrasonic nonlinearity and properties of the liner was studied during the whole curing process by ultrasonic transmission method and infrared spectroscopy. Nonlinearity of input instrumentation was minimized by the natural filtering effect of piezoelectric discs and the maximum excitation energy was acquired simultaneously so as to improve the accuracy of the measuring data. The experimental results indicate that in the liner curing reaction at 40°C ultrasonic nonlinearity parameter decreases gradually after a sharp decline, the variation tendency was consistent with the outcome of infrared spectroscopy as the curing degree increase. The research suggests an effective nondestructive approach to detect the curing properties of the liner in a nonlinear ultrasonic way.

In this paper, a novel power stability control measure using the balance resistance and the thyristor controlled series reactor is designed. It can satisfy the power stability requirements in the electric arc furnace. Analysis points out that thyristor controlled series reactors could not reduce the power fluctuations effectively especially when power drops.

Later, an appropriate control strategy is proposed briefly to meet the requirements of fast and accurate adjustment. After that, a simulation result based on PSCAD/EMTDC shows that the new control measure has a good effect to reduce the power fluctuation.

Based on the classical control theory, this paper proposes an adjustable speed motor control model with minimum ripple effect. This feasibility study was conducted and simulated in Matlab using three typical input signals: the unit step, unit speed and acceleration. The simulation results shown that, the minimum ripple controller could ensure the speed of the electromagnetic speed control motor followed the expected speed in the shortest sampling cycle, to achieve the steady-state error of the system to zero. However, it only follows a particular input signal and therefore when the input signals vary, the controllers need to be calibrated separately to follow the signals, hence, with an electromagnetic adjustable speed motor, it is feasible to control a thin coal seam electrical traction shearer with minimum ripple effect.

Electronic Stability Programs (ESP) plays a significant role in improving vehicle safety. However, the development and calibration of ESP control strategy need a long time, as vehicle is a nonlinear and time-varying system. Fuzzy control is robust and does not need accurate mathematical model of control object, so it's suitable to apply fuzzy control to ESP. Based on fuzzy control, this paper proposes a kind of ESP control strategy. According to the current vehicle response characteristics, fuzzy controller decides the desired yaw moment. Pressure controller calculates the corresponding target pressure and controls the hydraulic control unit so that the braking pressure will follow the target pressure. In order to verify the effectiveness of proposed control strategy, double lane change test is carried out on hardware and driver-in-loop test bench. The simulation results show that the proposed control strategy can significantly improve the vehicle handling and stability.

Isothermal die forging is one of the near net-shape metal forming technologies. Strict control of billet temperature during isothermal die forging is a guarantee for the excellent quality of final forging. In this study, a strategy is proposed and optimized to accurately control the billet temperature based on the response surface methodology (RSM). The optimized control strategy is accomplished by employing the thermal compensation during isothermal die forging. The thermal compensation to die is designed to overcome the inevitable heat loss during forging. i.e., the layouts and opening time of heaters, which are assembled on dies, are optimized based on the RSM. Comparisons between the optimized and conventional die forging processes indicate that the proposed strategy can effectively control the billet and die temperature within the designed forming processing range, and guarantee the quality of forging.

In this paper, we perform a feature analysis of a three-dimensional data, which is constructed from Functional Independence Measure (FIM) score of inpatients of a rehabilitation hospital, by applying the Tucker-2 model. Since this analysis method can combine multiple characteristics extracted from the data, a more detailed analysis can be performed. We took up the normal Tucker-2 decomposition and the nonnegative Tucker-2 decomposition as the Tucker-2 model, and compared the analysis results obtained from both decompositions. From the comparison, we saw that distinct kind of characteristics was obtained by the two decompositions. Because of that, it was considered that a multifaceted analysis could be performed by use of both decompositions together.

In this paper, one kind of fabricated concrete frame, which releases the constraint of foundations and joints, was proposed as one of the self-centering and rocking structures. A model of cast-in-place and the other of prefabricated concrete frame were established using finite-element software ABAQUS. Force-displacement hysteresis curves, the Von Mises stress cloud, skeleton curves and stiffness degradation curve were analyzed by contrast under monotonic and low-cyclic reversed loading. The results show that the prefabricated frame, which releases restrictions, has a self-centering and rocking capacity; compared with the cast frame, the precast one is weaker in bearing capacity and energy dissipation capacity, but superior in the decrease of the residual deformation and the damage of components in the meanwhile, which can make a contribution to the reduction of losses and restorations after the earthquake. This paper is aimed mainly at the numerical analysis on seismic behavior of precast concrete frames.

A series of aerodynamic experiments with different opening conditions on a building model with arch roof are conducted to measure the surface and internal pressures simultaneously. To explore the extreme wind loading for these partial enclosed buildings a ‘net pressure’ concept are adopted. The study found that the combination between surface pressure and internal pressure will cause the extreme wind loadings. In addition, the relative angle between the opening and incoming flow is a very important factor to determine the internal pressure to be positive or negative. In particular, in one opening case which faced to incoming flow will cause the sever wind net pressures on roof corner due to the positive internal pressures and corner vortex. However, the net pressures will go down as the second opening appeared. After comparing the results, it also found the net pressure acting on the roof corner which calculated from mean experimental external pressures data combined with gust factor and internal pressure coefficients suggested by building code will be underestimated. Therefore, the safety factor should be increased up to 2.5 to prevent the failure of joint connection between roof and frame at corner.

In this paper, taking into account the effect of the stress wave, the ABAQUS finite element analysis software was used to carry out the simulation for the dynamic buckling of metal bar under axial step load. The bifurcation of strain time-history curve of the symmetric elements on the top and bottom surface of a metal bar were used to verify the critical buckling time, the critical buckling load and the modal graphs are obtained. Meantime the dynamic buckling induced the reflection of the stress wave is also analyzed. The results indicate that the critical buckling load after the reflection of the stress wave is much smaller than the load before the reflection. The longer the critical buckling time, the smaller the critical buckling load.

In this paper, in order to understand fully the hysteretic behavior of carbon fiber reinforced concrete column under low frequency cyclic loads and provide a reference for the application of practical engineering, 3 test specimens have been investigated. Concrete strength grade is C30 and the volume fraction of carbon fiber is 2‰. Then we can get the hysteretic curve and skeleton curve of the column when the axial compressive ratios are 0.4, 0.5, 0.6. In order to get the stress nephogram of the columns, the finite element analysis software ABAQUS is adopted. The change of axial compression ratio has little influence on the full extent of the hysteretic curves. The hysteretic curves under different axial compression ratios are full without significant pinch phenomenon. When it reached the limit bearing capacity, skeleton curve decreased slowly. With the increase of axial load ratio, the ultimate bearing capacity and limit displacement decreased. The simulation curve and experimental curve are in good agreement which proves the rationality of simulation. The carbon fiber reinforced concrete column has good ductility, good plastic deformation capacity and seismic performance. It can be used in practical engineering.
