2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2490) [PDF 271KB](56)
Abstract:
A flat neural networ is designed for the on-line state prediction of engine. To reduce the computational cost of weight matrix, a fast recursive algorithm is derived according to the pseudoinverse formual of the partition matrix. Furthermore the forgettin factor approach is introduced to improve predictive accuracy and robustness of the model. The experiment results indicate that the improved neural netword is of good accuracy and strong robustness in prediction, and can apply for the on-line prediction of nonlinear multi input multi output systems like vehicle engines.

RESEARCH OF DYNAMIC CHARACTERIATIC FOR TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2323) [PDF 204KB](57)
Abstract:
The kinetic precision of transmission chain is a key problem in the research of gear cutting machine transmission system. The traditional point of view is to consider the transmission chain as a geometrical meshing system,thus it is deemed that the kinetic precision of the transmission chain only depends on the manufacturing and assembly errors of its transmission parts. But further research reveals that the kinetic precision of transmission system is closely related with the system dynamic effects.Therefore, from the dynamic point of view, it is discerned that not only deems the transmission chain as a geometrical meshing system but also considers it as a dynamic system performing with torsional vibration. On the basis of analyses and processes of measuring data of samples from tests of cutting machine's kinetic precision of transmission chain, the results represent that the influences of dynamic characteristics of the transmission system on its kinetic precision is non-negligible. Experimental methods for discerming the transfer function of torsional vibration of gear transmission system and experimental results have been given.
HIGHER ORDER SPECTRAL ANALYSIS IN FAULT DLAGNOSIS OF ROTORS
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2279) [PDF 263KB](127)
Abstract:
The nonlinear properties of rotating machinery vibration signals are presented. The relationship between faults and quadratic phase coupling is discussed. The mechanism that gives rise to quadratic phase coupling is analyzed, and the coupling models are summarized. As a result, higher order spectra analysis is introduced into fault diagnosis of rotors. A brief review of the properties of higher order spectra is presented. Furthermore, the bicoherence spectrum is employed to extract the features that signify the machinery condition. Experiments show that bicoherence spectrum patterns of different faults are quite different, so it is proposed to identify the faults in rotors.

In the end, an example is given to explain the method.
KEYHOLE IMAGE PROCESSING OF VARIABLE POLARITY PLASMA ARC WELDING BASED ON WAVELET TRANSFORM
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2321) [PDF 286KB](102)
Abstract:
In order to realize the feedback control for variable polarity plasma arc welding (VPPAW) formation in the welding process, the geometrical sizes of the keyhole image must be extracted. With the properties of multiscale edge through the wavelet theory, the edge points were detected by getting the maximum modules of the gradient vector in the dircetion towards which the gradient vector points in the image plane. At coarse scales,the local maxima of modules have different positions and only detected the sharp edge. At fine scale, there are many maxima created by the image noise, The best scale where the edges are well discriminated from noises is discussed by the multiscale transform. At last, a new method of peak analysis for threshold selection is provided. It is based on the wavelet transform which provides a multiscale analysis of the information of the histogram. Many experiments show these ways are effective for the keyhole image to get the geometry parameters of the keyhole in the real-time VPPAW image processing.

SOLIDIFICATION MICROSTRUCTURE AND FRACTURE MORPHOLOGY OF SiCp/ZA27 COMPOSITE
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2361) [PDF 522KB](106)
Abstract:
Solidification microstructure and mechanical property are explored. Furthermore, tensile fracture and microstructure are analyzed by using SEM and JXA-840A electron-probe. The results indicate that SiC particles in SiCp/ZA27 composite are mainly distributed on interfaces or between dendrites and surrounded by primary αphase. The dendrite of αphase is fined by SiCp.The tensile strength at room temperature decreases with the increasing of SiCp addition. The tensile strength at elevated temperature increases with the addition of SiCp. The fracture of SiCp/ZA27 composites is the mixture of tough and brittle fracture. The carck is prone to extend along the interface and the region of dispersed shrinkage.
STUDY ON MECHANISM OF HYDRODYNAMIC OSCILLATION IN VORTEX PRECESSION METER USING LARGE EDDY SIMULATION
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2338) [PDF 201KB](69)
Abstract:
In order to improve the anti-jamming performance of a vortex precession meter, the disciplinarian of the vortex precession and the mechanism of hydrodynamic oscillation inside the vortex precession meter are numerically investigated by using the large eddy simulation. The results show that the periodical eccentric motion of the vortexes initiates a hydrodynamic oscillation inside the vortex precession meter. The visualized time dependent flow fields indicate that the pressures at axisymmetric points oscillate with a same intensity and frequency but 180°phase shift. By using differential sensing technique, a new prototype of double-double-sensor vortex precession meter, aimed to improve measurement accuracy, is developed.

2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2413) [PDF 185KB](86)
Abstract:
The motion planning of multiple mobile robots undertaking individual tasks in the same environment is studied. A motion planning method based on neural networks is proposed. By storing fuzzy rules in neural networks the method can fully make use of the association ability and high processing speed of neural networks to make robots avoid collisions with other objects in real time. Compared with rules method, the method can not only avoid building a large and complex rules base but also make robots avoid collisions and conflicts at higher speed and with higher intelligence.
ANALYSIS OF CREEP FORCES OF WHEEL/RAIL
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2356) [PDF 335KB](133)
Abstract:
The effects of structure elastic deformations of wheelset and track on creep forces of wheel and rail are investigated. Finite element method is used to calculate the influence coefficients expressing the relations between structure elastic deformations of wheelset and track and the corresponding loads in the rolling direction and the lateral direction of wheelset, respectively. The influence coefficients of wheelset and track are used to revise some of the influence coefficients obtained with the formula of Bossinesq and Cerruti in Kalker's theory of three-dimensional elastic bodies in rolling contact with non-Hertzian form. The theory of Kalker and the modified theory of Kalker are respectively employed to analyze creep forces of wheelset and track. The numerical results obtained show a great influence of structure elastic deformations of wheelset and track on the creep forces. Therfore it is not reasonable that wheel and rail are treated as elastic half space in the analysis of wheel and rail in rolling contact, and the present theories of rolling contact based on the assumption of elastic half space need to be further improved.

Directly using the kinematic-chain's structural graph in the mechanism motion sketch or its inversion, the connected relations of components and joints can be presented through the spanning tree constructed by Depth-First traversal the graph and the distribution of back-edge. Then, whether two graph isomorphism and components'topological symmertry can be identified through comparing the structural characteristic of spanning tree and the distribution characteristic of back-edge. The study shows that the method is effective,directly perceptible, simple and easily dealt with by computer.
NUMERICAL SIMULATION ON DEFORMATION CHARACTERISTICS OF AS WIRE BY CASTEX
2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2372) [PDF 212KB](77)
Abstract:
Castex(continous cast and extrusion)is a latest metallurgical technology. Making of AS wire(aluminum-clad steel wire) by Castex is an advanced bonding technology of bimetal.In order to study the deformation character of AS wire the numerical simulation is performed with FE method. From the simulation result the following conclusions are obtained:① The simulation is carried out sequentially in three zones:initial extrusion, extrusion,cavity-filling and bonding.②In the first zone the shearing deformation governs the whold zone, while in that of cavity-filling,the deformation mainly concentrates on transition arc of the concave mould. In addition, in the last zone, the dominant deformation lies at the boundary of concave mould, surface of steel wire and entry of sizing band. Due to the movement of steel wire, the direction of shear stress on its surface is opposite to that on the boundary of concave die.

2001, 15(1).
[Abstract](2352) [PDF 152KB](130)
Abstract:
In the extrusion of shapes with flat-faced die ,the proper design of die land is of critical importance in avoiding the generations of geometry defects. A methodology for the design of die land, which consists of a simulation-adjustment iteration, is proposed. The metal flow in extrusion is simulated by the three dimensional finite element method and the die land is adjusted according to the simulation result. Both the formulae for adjustment of the die land and the criterion for the judgment of proper die land are suggested. The extrusion of an L-secion shape is chosen as the computational example and the result is compared with the industrial design.
