2016, 35(12): 1805-1810. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.1201
Abstract:
The acquisition and analysis of casing's acceleration vibration signal is a significant method to realize aero-engine's fault diagnosis. Neural networks can classify vibration faults with their strong nonlinear mapping ability. 5 different types of fan casing vibration faults are simulated on the rotor-bearing-casing coupled vibration experiment system. Accurate judgment of faults can't gain from the preliminary analysis of signal's frequency spectrum. Single fault is classified from faults by probabilistic neural networks (PNN) using vibration data's frequency and amplitude domain parameters. Methods with different parameters are compared and the feasibility of PNN using in casing vibration fault diagnosis is tested.

2016, 35(12): 1811-1816. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.1202
Abstract:
In order to study the influence of processing error and assembling error on the fatigue life of a deep groove ball bearing, a calculation model of bearing ring tilting caused by the shape error and position error of a motor is established. The contact angle, contact load, contact stress, spin to roll ratio and bearing temperature distribution caused by different tilt angles between inner ring and outer ring is quantitatively calculated. At the position of the highest contact angle, the values of bearing temperature, contact stress and spin to roll ratio are larger than those at other positions. The influence of different inclination angles between the rings on the fatigue life of the deep groove bearing is obtained. The calculation results show that the tilt angle between the rings is within 3 degrees and is caused by the motor's error when the radial clearance is zero and that the fatigue life of the deep groove ball bearing is reduced by less than 10%.

2016, 35(12): 1817-1823. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.1203
Abstract:
The static analysis of 3PUS-S(P) metamorphic parallel mechanism is received when the result of force mapping model between joint space and operational space is already gained. The 3PUS-S(P) metamorphic parallel mechanism consists of a moving platform, a static platform, three PUS unconstraint branched chains and an S(P) constraint branched chain. This mechanism has two configurations:in the first configuration, the moving platform is in possession of three revolute degrees of freedom; in the second configuration, the moving platform has an extra translational freedom in the direction of radius which is perpendicular to the moving platform. Based on the screw theory, the complete Jacobian matrix is established firstly. Secondly, the force mapping model between the input and the output is obtained according to the principle of virtual work. Then, the performance index of the force transmission is found. At last, the mapping relationship between the performance index of the force transmission and the geometric parameters of the mechanism is analyzed. The study paves the way for the further application of 3PUS-S(P) metamorphic parallel mechanism.

2016, 35(12): 1824-1828. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.1204
Abstract:
Since the composite error of the motion of path generating mechanisms is multi-dimensional and strongly nonlinear, it is difficult to obtain the highly accurate mean and variance of the composite error with the Taylor series expansion. Therefore, this paper uses the dimensional reduction method to build the probabilistic model of the motion error. As an example, it presents a four-bar planar path linkage with random number of dimensions and establishes a model of the composite motion error based on kinematic analysis. With the bivariate dimension reduction method, the motion error is approximated by the sum of univariate and bivariate functions of dimensional variables. The Gauss-Hermite Quadrature rule is applied to evaluate the statistical moments of the motion error, and then its mean and standard deviation functions are derived. This application achieves an optimal balance between accuracy and efficiency. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the bivariate dimensional reduction method.

2016, 35(12): 1829-1833. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.1205
Abstract:
The paper studies the friction pair of water hydraulic slide valve core. In order to improve its hydrodynamic bearing capacity and lubrication characteristics, micro-textures are set up on its surface. The computational fluid dynamics method based on the Navier-Stokes equation is used to analyze the flow field of the micro-texture valve core friction pair. The core surface pressure distribution curves, pressure bearing and friction curves are obtained. The influence of valve core overlap length on the hydrodynamic bearing capacity and lubrication characteristics of the friction pair is analyzed under the condition that the overlap length is greater than 2.5 mm. The analysis results show that the smooth valve core does not produce hydrodynamic lubrication effect but that the micro-texture valve core surface produces oil film's dynamic pressure support. With the decrease of the core overlap length, the bearing capacity on the micro-texture core surface increases; thus the contact friction between the valve core and the sleeve decreases.

2016, 35(12): 1842-1847. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.1207
Abstract:
The old time domain features from the cutting force are vulnerable to changes of cutting parameters. So it is not suitable for tool wear monitoring under variable parameters. In order to solve the above mentioned problem, a new set of dimensionless time domain feature including normalized cutting force indicator NCF, variation coefficient Cv and peak force ratio MFR are adopted. To verify the effectiveness of the present feature for tool wear monitoring under variable parameters, the end milling experiment of TC4 titanium alloy was designed. Then, the present features and the old features are input Support Vector Machines (SVM) to monitor the tool wear state respectively. The analysis and comparison results show that the dimensionless time domain feature presented in the paper is not sensitive to the cutting parameters, but only sensitive to the tool wear state. Hence, the tool wear state monitoring under variable parameters can be implemented.

Abstract:
Aiming at the condition-based maintenance of equipments, a novel assessment method of rolling bearing performance degradation combining wavelet packet singular spectral entropy (WPSSE) and support vector data description (SVDD) was proposed. Firstly, WPSSEs were extracted from bearing full-life-cycle vibration signals as feature vectors to describe a bearing running state. Secondly, SVDD was trained using the feature vectors under normal condition to get the fiducial hypersphere of normal state. Then, the relative distance between full-life-cycle feature vectors of bearing and fiducial hypersphere was calculated as a quantitative index of performance degradation, and the failure threshold and incipient fault threshold were set. Analytical results of experimental data indicated that compared with the degradation evaluation method based on wavelet packet and SVDD, the proposed method had stronger ability for incipient fault detection, and it could describe the stages of bearing performance degradation more accurately. Finally, Hilbert envelope demodulation method based on empirical mode demodulation was used to validate the reliability of evaluation result.

Abstract:
The relationship between instruction attitude angles and gimbal angles of three-axis turntable in the missile hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulation is studied. To achieve the real attitude motion similarity, a method is proposed to make the gimbal output angular rate match with the turntable instruction angular rate all the time to realize the accurate simulation of missile attitude. Firstly, the coordinate system and attitude angles of missile, the coordinate system and attitude angles of turntable, and drive equation and attitude differential equation of two kinds of three-axis turntable (flight motion simulator based on vertical or horizontal outer axis stand) are introduced. The essence of attitude similarity is that the turntable output angular rate recurrent missile theoretical angular rate, and thus make the two attitude matrix similar. A horizontal turntable attitude angles setting method considering turntable rotation order that can ensure the attitude matrix similar any time is proposed. The method of attitude matrix similarity proposed definitudes the relationship between the missile attitude angles and gimbal angles of turntable, which can eliminate the bad effect of the improper gimbal structure of three-axis turntable effectively. The digital simulation result indicates that turntable gimbal structure has influence on recurrenting the theoretical angular rate when setting turntable instruction attitude angles and the proposed attitude angles setting method achieves attitude motion similarity. The HWIL simulation indicates the proposed method can solve the problem of attitude motion similarity efficiently in the HWIL simulation of hypersonic vehicle.

Abstract:
Based on the small civil aircraft, three finite element models of fuselage section with different strut rigidity are developed by HyperMesh software.

The results show that a too high or too low strut stiffness will bring threat to the survival of passengers. An advisable design of strut will impose an effective control on crash failure and reduce the dynamic response, which will finally improve the crashworthiness of aircraft.
