2016, 35(5): 672-677. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0503
Abstract:
As more and more people have lower limb dyskinesia, lower limb rehabilitation gradually receives greater attention from many scholars and researchers. In order to study the influence of different gait trajectories on the fatigue of the major muscles of a lower human limb, we design three mechanisms that can achieve different trajectories and use SolidWorks to build their three dimensional models. Then, we build the human limb model according to the model in LifeMOD. We use computer simulation to coordinate it with the three-dimensional models and obtain the results of change in stretch tensors of the major muscles. The simulation results show that different gait trajectories have different influences on stretch tensors, namely, fatigue. So it is very important to design mechanisms that have reasonable trajectories to meet the needs of human limb's movement. The analysis results not only provide the evidence for designing some mechanisms for lower human limb rehabilitation exercise, but also provide a new way of rehabilitation evaluation.

2016, 35(5): 686-689. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0505
Abstract:
In order to suppress the vibration of the piezoelectric smart structure, the adaptive PD algorithm with perfect reference model tracking performance is usually adopted. But it is lack of stability under rapid disturbance, the problem is particularly prominent caused by random disturbance. Therefore, the direct velocity negative feedback (DVFB) control algorithm is coupled into the adaptive PD algorithm to improve adaptive PD algorithm, and the stability of the new control system is verified by Lyapunov method. The reference model is determined according to the shrinking factor method. Simulation results show that the improved adaptive PD algorithm could have better robustness and stability according to track errors and output displacement effects compared with traditional adaptive PD algorithm under sine signal or random signal excitation.

Abstract:
For the reliability analysis of a type of motorized spindle under the case of extremely-small samples, the virtual augmented method and Boot-strap method were used to virtually extend the original sample, then the degradation model and the reliability function of which the parameters followed random distribution were established. Besides, Through Bayes prior distribution, the reliability function under random coefficients was modified. The reliability function of the motorized spindle under random coefficients after modification was compared with the reliability function deduced under the case of pseudo-life. The results showed that the reliability function obtained by the random coefficient method had a higher precision, and the errors generated by the reliability evaluation using pseudo-life method in which the model parameters were regarded as fixed values were avoided. The method proposed in this paper can be used to obtain the degradation characteristics for the similar products with certain applicability according to the extremely-small sample experimental data.

Abstract:
In this paper, the parametric analysis of tetrahedral lattice sandwich cylinder stability under torsional loading is examined by using finite element method. Based on performance-enhancing factor denoted as ratio of sandwich cylinder property to that of solid cylinder with equal mass, the effects of lattice rod cross-section, lattice relative density, lattice number, lattice configuration and cylinder skin thickness on the torsional stability is evaluated. The results show that lattice relative density and cylinder skin thickness have significant influence on the cylinder torsional stability, which is nearly the same for different lattice sandwich cylinder with same lattice rod cross-section area. It shows that sandwich cylinder containing more lattices is conducive to enhancing its torsional stability. When the relative density is small, lattice sandwich cylinder with stubby strut has advantage in the torsional performance. The conclusions are instructive for the design of lattice sandwich cylinder.

Abstract:
Water-jet cavitation peening uses the shock wave pressure and micro-jet produced by the cavitation bubbles collapsing near the surface of materials to strengthen the material surface, the cavitation bubbles are provided by the submerged cavitating water jet generated by convergent-divergent nozzle. Therefore, the cavitation capability of convergent-divergent nozzle can affect the peening effect directly. With using FLUENT software,the computer simulation is applied to study the submerged cavitating water jets, and the influences of nozzle throat diameter and nozzle divergence angle on the cavitation behavior in the flow field are analyzed. The Fujifilm pressure-sensitive paper is applied to measure the pressure distribution on the section which is perpendicular to the axis of cavitating water jet. The results show that the vapor fraction in flow field rises with the nozzle throat diameter increasing or the nozzle divergence angle decreasing, and the measured pressure in the experiment is up to 300 MPa.

2016, 35(5): 717-721. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0511
Abstract:
The interaction model between the disc cutter and the rock was established by using the finite element method. The forces and the slip displacement of a single disc cutter when breaking rock were obtained via numerical simulation. Based on the relationship between the abrasion loss of volume and the friction energy, an estimation method for predicting the wear content of cutter was proposed. The results show that it is feasible by using the numerical simulation method to obtain the vertical force and slip displacement and then to estimate the cutter's lifespan. The examples show that there is an optimal rate of penetration to leastly decrease the wear for the same geology condition. The increase in the radius of location and rotation speed will increase the wear of the cutter. The increase in the uniaxial compressive strength will also increase the wear of the cutter. The present results may provide a concise method to evaluate the wear, to predict the cutter's lifespan and to determine the period of changing cutters.

Finally, reasonable maintenance modes for critical failures of the meta-action assembly unit were confirmed by grey clustering approach. The effectiveness of the proposed failure maintenance decision method was demonstrated by an example of the meta-action assembly unit from a certain machining center.

Abstract:
Machined surface integrity of titanium alloy plays a key role due to its strong correlation with the functional performance and service life. In this paper, several side-milling tests were developed to investigate influence law of different cooling conditions on surface integrity in milling of TC4 alloy. The results showed that the values of surface roughness and microhardness under emulsion condition were lower than that in dry condition with same cutting parameters, machined surface residual stresses were compressive stresses in emulsion and dry conditions. Under emulsion condition, the absolute value of residual compressive stress always increased with the increasing of cutting speed, feed per tooth and milling width, while the reverse redistribution phenomena were found under emulsion condition. Under emulsion and dry conditions, milling depth had less influence on surface integrity than the other milling parameters.

Abstract:
The surface damage behavior in the cylinder deep drawing of hot-dip galvanized steel(DC53D+Z) and hot-dip galvannealed steel(DC53D+ZF) under the different die radius were investigated. The experimental results indicate that ironing signs and scratching are two kinds of surface damage for hot-dip galvanized steel, coating cracking and scratching are two kinds of surface damage for hot-dip galvannealed steel. The ironing signs of the DC53D+Z and the cracking of the DC53D+ZF coating obviously increases with the decreasing of die radius. The finite element model for cylinder drawing of galvanized sheet with an interface composite was established via ANSYS/LS-DYNA software. The simulation results show that the maximum principal strain along the drawing direction of coating increases with the decreasing of die radius. The maximum principal strain along the drawing direction of coating may be the main reason affecting the level of surface damage.

2016, 35(5): 815-820. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0529
Abstract:
According to the requirement of accurate oil feeding to each oil nozzle of the test gearbox for a fan drive gear system (FDGS) testing which was used in Geared Turbofan Aircraft Engines, a multi-line variable-pressure oil-separation unit was designed in the oil supply flow of the gear test system, which is closed power and provided by hydraulic load. The inner cavity of oil separation unit contains a number of branches with throttling components. The pressure drop of each throttling component is controllable by adjusting the diameter and length of throttle holes. In this way, multi-line oil with different pressure is supplied to the oil nozzles, which ensure that the oil flow rate and velocity at the oil nozzles can precisely comply with test requirements. In order to study the effects of the throttle hole diameter and length on oil flow rate and velocity at the oil nozzles, a one-dimensional, steady-state simulation of oil supply line in the gear test system was calculated using Flowmaster. The results show that the throttle hole diameter has much significant impact on pressure drop rather than that of throttle hole length. Especially when the throttle hole diameter is adjusted between 1mm to 3mm, the throttling component exhibits an obvious regulating effect on the oil feeding pressure of the gear test system.
