2016, 35(8): 1149-1155. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0801
Abstract:
The subspan oscillation for transmission lines is one type of the wind-induced vibrations, which can lead to insecurity of transmission lines. In this paper, the stability and bifurcation of the subspan oscillation for two bundled conductors are investigated. Firstly, the governing equations and mathematical models of the subspan oscillation system are given, and two Hopf bifurcation points are obtained. Then central manifold theory is used to reduce the dimension of the subspan oscillation system, and limit cycle oscillations near these two Hopf bifurcation points are also obtained. Lastly, the successor function method is used to analyze types of the Hopf bifurcation points. All these results agree with the numerical analysis solution well.

2016, 35(8): 1176-1182. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0805
Abstract:
On the basis of the predecessors' design scheme of annulus, the frame scheme is raised, which has smaller space usage and can promise real three-dimensional spatial movement. The comparison of the space usage of two schemes proves that the scheme of frame is more optimal. The frame scheme is taken as the object of study and the rotation frame 1 is taken as an example to establish the finite element model based on the structural feature. The static analysis is performed on the rotation frame 1 in the pose with the worst stiffness that is based on actual word condition. Modal analysis is taken with the first four inherent frequencies and vibration models. Multi-objective and multi-parameter optimization is taken according to the result of static analysis and modal analysis. Comparing with the analysis results of original modal via finite element method, we improve greatly the dynamic and static characters. The optimization results of pedestal and rotation frame 2 are provided with the same method.

2016, 35(8): 1183-1188. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0806
Abstract:
A new method called AR-GMM is proposed based on autoregressive model (AR) and Gaussian mixture model (GMM) for fault degree assessment. Bearing vibration signals are represented by the parameters and residual of the AR model. A GMM is then obtained by training data from bearing fault-free. The data to be tested are fed to the baseline GMM to measure the similarity between the tested bearing condition and normal ones. Consequently, a bearing fault degree assessment indicator called ARLLP (autoregressive log-likelihood probability) is formulated based on the similarity measure. Experiment results on bearing fatigue test demonstrate that the proposed method can detect bearing fault at early stage and can track the trend of deterioration of rolling bearings.

2016, 35(8): 1207-1212. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0810
Abstract:
The generation function method is an important tool for structural reliability analysis and performance assessment of a multi-state system, but its computational efficiency and accuracy are poor. The non-uniform discretization method and the approximate merger technique are put forward. Firstly, the most dangerous point (minimum) of the safety margin function is obtained with the optimization method. Secondly, with the most dangerous point being at the center, each variable is non-uniformly discretized in accordance with the power function. Thirdly, variable generation functions are calculated by adopting the non-equidistant histogram method to test whether the discretization effect is optimal. Finally, the structural reliability is calculated. The generation function method not only improves its accuracy and efficiency but also avoids the combinatorial explosion under the condition that the number of the multi-state system's performance statuses does not change. The new method takes into consideration the error formation mechanism in calculating structural reliability and the MATLAB programming feasibility. It also provides an effective tool for the fast and efficient computation of the multi-variable nonlinear structural reliability with the finite-limit state function.

Abstract:
Fast steering mirror (FSM) is also called Scanning Mirror. It is one of the key equipments in space communication, adaptive optics and other fields, which is used between the object and optical receiver to control the direction of light beams. Since the diversified demand of practical application, domestic fast steering mirrors are increasingly unable to meet the demand for high-end areas. According to the current domestic situation that only traditional one-sided scanning mirrors are studied, we design the mirror structure of double-sided scanning in the workplace which can realize working of both sides and the way to support the mirror so as to meet the specific requirement. Piezoelectric ceramics were used as the actuator. The support structure possessing fine flexibility in multiple directions and the base structure with amplification mechanism were analyzed and designed. Then a kind of device based on piezoelectric effect, consequently, making the double-sided mirror fast slope possible was given. Finally, the finite element method was applied to simulate and verify the design method and the entire structure presented in this paper.

Abstract:
The accurate and reasonable evaluation of an advanced bolt's reinforcement effect and its parameter design depend on correct understanding of reinforcement mechanisms. In order to explain the influence of parameters of soil and bolt on the reinforcement effect, the bolt-soil interactional model was built. The reinforcement mechanisms of advanced bolts were analyzed with the extrusion deformation of the tunnel core soil under the condition whether the advanced bolt and the tunnel core soil have common deformation or not. The reinforcement factor k was introduced to calculate the reinforcement effect of bolts and analyzed the influence of parameters for reinforcement effect in the condition that bolt and soil had common deformation. Finally, the reinforcement effect of the advanced bolt was analyzed through computer simulation. The simulation results show that the influence of soil and bolt's parameters on reinforcement effect can be analyzed with the reinforcement factor k. The conclusion that the length of an anchor has its limit is verified. Furthermore, the different reinforcement mechanisms of anchorage section and drawing section were explained. These results provide significant guidance for reinforcement effect evaluation and parameter design of an advanced bolt.

2016, 35(8): 1259-1266. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2016.0818
Abstract:
Interms of the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the parametric model for vertical vibration of equivalent car-body structure is built. For more accurate calculation results, the car-body is divided into some parts for getting the section information and obtaining a convergence coefficient to get the corrected formula by the degree of inequality about the car-body parts. All of these measures give an exact first order vertical bending frequency of the simple car-bodies. By applying the key parameters to calculate the first order vertical bending frequency of a subway car-body and a high-speed train car-body, the results show that the error between the analyzed value and the finite element result is 2.05% and 4.59%, and the error about the modal experiment of the high-speed train is 1.18 Hz. All the errors between the analyzed value and the finite element result are all in the range of 5%, which show that the analyzed method is effective.

Abstract:
To overcome the shortcomings of the traditional grid method, we use a honeycomb grid to model its environment and the distribution-uniform adaptive ant colony algorithm for mobile robot path planning in a complex static environment. The algorithm uses the safety and effectiveness of honeycomb grid through the cohesion and the information weights to dynamically adjust the path selection probability and pheromone updating, makes the algorithm quickly converge, avoids prematurity and stagnation and achieves a good balance. The simulation results demonstrate that the algorithm is significantly superior to the traditional ant colony algorithm in terms of three important parameters. Thus, in the environment of any known complex static obstacles, the algorithm can quickly, accurately and safely plan the optimal path of a mobile robot and produce satisfactory results.
