2021, 40(11): 1641-1648. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20200263
Abstract:
The high-speed machining of Ti-6Al-4V alloy is a complicated thermal coupling process with high temperature and high strain rate. In order to study the true stress-strain relationship of Ti-6Al-4V alloy at high temperature and high strain rate, a modified Johnson-cook (J-C) constitutive model was constructed. The modified J-C constitutive model considers that the strain hardening rate will decrease with the increasing of temperature in the plastic phase and that the flow stress of Ti-6Al-4V alloy will decrease sharply when the critical temperature of high temperature dynamic crystallization effect is reached. The predicted flow stress-strain results via modified J-C constitutive model are in a good agreement with the test data, and the error rate is within 8%, which accurately reflects the true stress-strain relationship of Ti-6Al-4V alloy at different loading temperatures.

Abstract:
Obtaining the response information of the structure by optimizing the arrangement of the incentive points, a new method is proposed, which takes the difference curvature function of acceleration signal as the damage index and directly applies the output signal to quickly judge the damage position of the structure. Firstly, the modal shape of the structure is calculated, and the minimum value of the non diagonal element of modal assurance criterion (MAC) matrix is taken as the fitness function, modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) is used to optimize the number and location of excitation points, and then the average acceleration amplitude and root mean square (RMS) evaluation criteria are used to select the better scheme of excitation point arrangement. Then test the corresponding position of the excitation, obtain the acceleration signal, calculate the integral value of the square of the acceleration difference before and after the damage at the measuring point, use the curvature index function to determine the damage position, and the acceleration signal is filtered by Butterworth as the input sample of improved multi-scale sample entropy (MMSE). Finally, according to the change of MMSE mean value, the relative damage degree of the structure under each working condition is determined. The results show that the difference curvature function of acceleration signal of structural response is suitable for damage detection. By simulating the damage of bolt connection in three-dimensional truss vibration table, the damage diagnosis can be carried out under different damage conditions.

2021, 40(11): 1670-1674. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20200329
Abstract:
In order to determine the scope of influence of fluid excitation and shafting excitation on the centrifugal pump vibration, we calculated the unsteady flow field of a centrifugal pump and analyzed the vibration characteristics of this pump under fluid excitation and shafting excitation. We choose to use misalignment fault of rotor system as the shafting excitation in this paper. The numerical simulation results show that when the shafting is misaligned, the vibration response of the pump at 1APF (motor rotational frequency) is enhanced, a significant vibration response occurred at 2APF, and there is almost no change in the vibration level at 1BPF (blade passing frequency) and the middle-frequency. When the centrifugal pump is excited by fluid excitation and the misaligned excitation, the centrifugal pump has obvious vibration response at 1APF and 1BPF. The vibration level at 1BPF differs greatly from that at shafting excitation only.

2021, 40(11): 1695-1702. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20200277
Abstract:
Ignoring the posture of the end motion platform of a plane flexible four-cable parallel robot may cause positioning errors. On the premise that the platform posture is considered, this paper sets up the robot’s kinematics model and carries out the static analysis of the end platform so as to optimize the minimum variance of the tension of each flexible cable. The paper proposes the tension homogenization optimization algorithm and uses the penalty function and the gradient method to calculate the posture under the condition that the optimal cable force distribution is satisfied. It then analyzes the influence of factors such as the layout shape of the rope exit points of the static platform and the platform shape on the positioning accuracy. MATLAB simulation results show that the positioning error of the tension homogenization optimization algorithm is less than 10-6 mm, and that the tension meets the expected requirements. The model that considers the posture of the motion platform can correct the deflection angle of more than 6°. The deflection angle error caused by different rope exit points can reach at most 4.5°. The greater the difference between the length and width of the motion platform, the greater its influence on the posture. Prototype experimental results show that the algorithm has high accuracy and feasibility. The research can help realize the high-precision positioning of the flexible four-cable parallel robot motion platform.

2021, 40(11): 1710-1716. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20200266
Abstract:
The whole model of catenary-pantograph-shroud-train is established. Based on the method of separated vortex simulation, the unsteady aerodynamic characteristics of the pantograph with different height shroud under the action of cross wind are studied, and the variation laws of vorticity, streamline and aerodynamic load are analyzed. The simulation results show that when the height of the shroud is 100 mm, the separation vortices deflect significantly to the leeward side of the crosswind; and when the height of the shroud is 400 mm, the effects on the lower bars of the pantograph and the joints of the car body are enhanced; when the height of the shroud is 200 mm, the effect of the crosswind on the deflection of the flow field is obviously improved, and the distribution of the flow field is symmetrical in the longitudinal direction, and the increase of the resistance coefficient is much smaller than that of the pantograph. The reduction of the transverse force on the pantograph greatly reduces the overturning moment and the side deflection moment, so it is advisable to use a 200 mm height deflector in the harsh wind environment. These results are significant to the study of the influence of the shroud height on the aerodynamic characteristics of the pantograph under cross wind action.

Finally, comparing the ride comfort response under the rubber stiffness parameters before and after optimization, illustrating the ride comfort has improved by about 8% with the optimized stiffness parameters. Besides, the improvement is mainly due to the reduction of medium-high frequency vibration.

2021, 40(11): 1747-1753. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20200280
Abstract:
According to compressed sensing theory, the reconstruction algorithm with convex optimization method has some problems such as larger reconstruction error, more reconstruction iterations and lower reconstruction error signal-to-noise ratio in the application of rolling bearing fault signals. In order to improve these shortcomings, this paper proposes a new algorithm that uses the arc sine function instead of the hyperbolic function to approximate the l0 norm, which makes the approximation degree of the function curve and the l0 norm higher and smoother. At the same time, the attenuation factor is added to accelerate the iteration speed. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm reduces the number of iterations to some extent, but loses some reconstruction accuracy. However, compared with the existing algorithms, the overall reconstruction effect has the advantages of higher reconstruction accuracy, fewer iterations and higher reconstruction SNR.

Abstract:
According to the structural characteristics and working principle of linear compressor, the control strategy of linear compressor was divided into mechanical and electromagnetic parts. The physical models for the two parts are constructed respectively. On the basis of the physical model, the linear compressor state equation was constructed with the driving voltage as the input and the piston displacement as the output.

The results show that the sliding mode controller with variable speed reaching law is superior to the controller with the uniform exponential reaching law in the steady-state time and chattering degree, and the control accuracy is improved by 20%. At the same time, when α =1.346、k = 13.499, the sliding mode controller with the variable speed reaching law achieves the optimal control effect. The control error is between 4% and 7.8%, which verifies the control accuracy and effectiveness of the controller.

2021, 40(11): 1760-1766. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20200267
Abstract:
Non-road vehicles often travel on non-paved road, therefore, they may be shocked and vibrated in multiple directions due to uneven road surface, acceleration and deceleration, as well as turning and direction change, etc. However, present seat suspension of such vehicles cannot effectively attenuate such shock vibrations. Most of current researches on the vibration reduction of seat suspensions focus on passive vibration reduction and vibration reduction in the vertical direction, and research on multi-dimensional coordinated active vibration reduction is relatively rare. To this end, the 3-RCC parallel mechanism which is able to attenuate multi-dimensional vibration is used as the seat suspension system. The virtual prototype of the 3-RCC suspension model, combined with the active control module, is built in ADAMS, and the controller is built in MATLAB/Simulink for the joint simulation of ADAMS and MATLAB. The simulation results show that the 3-RCC seat suspension can coordinate the vibration reduction in multi-dimension, and driver' s ride comfort is further improved by combining the active control module.
