Abstract:
The finger seal as the component of a rotor system and the mechanical interaction between the finger seal and the rotor affect the dynamic characteristics of the system. Therefore we propose the seal force calculation method to build the rotor system's dynamics model and analyze its related dynamics. In this paper, the gas film stiffness and gas film damping of the finger seal are realized by means of solid-fluid coupling analysis, and the related fitting formulas are established. Then, the mechanical model of finger seal/rotor interaction is established by combining finger seal/rotor contact processes; a method of calculating the seal force which is applied to the dynamic analysis of the rotor system is proposed. The calculation process of seal force is also implemented by an example and the relationship between seal force and working conditions is discussed. The results show preliminarily that:The gas film stiffness of the finger seal increases with the increase of fluid pressure, and the rotor speed has little influence on the film stiffness; the gas film damping of finger seal decreases with the increase of fluid pressure and rotor speed. The seal force in contact region increases with the rotor's whirl amplitude but basically does not change with the rotor speed; the seal force in the non-contact region decreases with the increase of the rotor's whirl amplitude and increases with the rotor speed. The seal force varies periodically with time, and the frequency of sealing force increases with the increase of rotor frequency.

Abstract:
Aiming at the limitation of the passive obstacle surmounting method of wheeled robots in unstructured ground environment, this paper proposes an articulated series eight-wheeled robot with active and passive obstacle surmounting method. The robot includes two symmetrical bodies connected by a hydraulic cylinder and a hinge mechanism. By controlling the hydraulic stroke displacement and hard and soft conditions, the robot can transform its attitude and surmount the vertical obstacle higher than its wheel's diameter. This paper establishes the robot centroid movement model and analyzes the obstacle surmount mechanism of this robot on vertical obstacle and moat. Then, an obstacle surmounting simulation is carried out on ADAMS, and a real prototype experiment is also carried out. The results confirm that the robot can surmount the vertical obstacle height which is 1.5 times higher than the wheel diameter and 1.5 times higher than wheelbase moat, having a good ability to surmount obstacles in the unstructured ground environment.

Abstract:
Analysis of airflow field in aero-engine bearing chamber is essential to design of secondary flow system as well as lubrication system. The investigations of the velocity, temperature and pressure fields for the air in an aero-engine bearing chamber were conducted with the finite element method. The influence of the rotor speeds on the velocity, temperature and pressure between the connection field in bearing chamber was discussed. The results show that the velocity and temperature of air increase with the increasing of rotor speeds while the pressure difference among the adjacent chambers decreases with the increasing of rotor speed. The accuracy and low computaion time of the present method is demonstrated by comparing the results via the airflow fields and the air/droplet coupling fields.

2018, 37(11): 1670-1677. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180077
Abstract:
According to Hamilton principle, a mathematical model of lateral vibration of horizontal drill string is established by considering the coupling between drilling mud and drillstring. The effects of internal and external drilling mud velocity, drilling mud density, viscosity coefficient of drilling mud, gravity, friction and WOB (Weight on bit)on the lateral vibration of drillstring were analyzed. The lateral vibration characteristics of drill string under different WOB and drilling mud velocity were simulated based on the self-developed dynamic test device for horizontal drillstring. The research results show that the increase of WOB, the exciting of drilling mud and the flow velocity all results in the decrease of the lateral vibration frequency and the increase of vibration amplitude for the drillstring.

Abstract:
Workspace analysis and dimension parameter optimal design of a new type of 3T1R parallel mechanism, namely 4-RUPaR parallel mechanism, are carried out.

Abstract:
Owing to the nonlinearity of the electro-hydraulic servo system, the conventional control methods produce poor control performances.

2018, 37(11): 1722-1730. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180069
Abstract:
In the intelligent fault diagnosis of rotating machinery, the unsupervised learning with the complex network structure has some problems, such as too large parameters, long training time and not satisfactory diagnosis accuracy with the simple learning structure. Aiming at the above problems, this paper uses fuzzy information granulation and sparse auto-encoder to construct a parallel learning network. At the same time, the sparse auto-encoder of the parallel structure adaptively extracts the features of multiple parameters reconstructed after granulation, and then the extracted features are fused and classified with random forest. Experimental results show that this method can identify faults with high accuracy. Compared with the commonly used methods with the serial network structure, the method not only reduces the network parameter adjustment complexity and the multi-layer network influence but also reduces the training time, while improving the diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract:
Rigid-flexible coupling dynamics models for taxi and brake analysis are established. In order to analyze the influence factors of brake torque on gear buffeting in this model, the control variable method is applied. Simulation analysis is carried out on this model by changing only one parameter at a time. The simulation results show obviously that:when the frequency of brake torque variation gets close to the resonance frequency, gear buffeting phenomenon is very intense. When the maximum value of the brake torque rises, the gear buffeting phenomenon becomes acute. If the magnitude of gear buffeting fluctuation rises, the range of gear buffeting amplitude is larger in response. Based on previous conclusions, the slip rate braking control strategy and deceleration control strategy are applied for anti-skid braking control respectively, the further research on gear buffeting phenomena under two control cases is conducted, and the response under two different ways of anti-skid braking control strategy are compared. The results show that:the slip rate braking control method with PID controller are much better than the braking control method of deceleration control type, it can improve main gear brake efficiency, slow down gear buffeting, and also improve landing safety.
