MICRO/NANO-MACHINING ON SILICON SURFACE WITH A MODIFIED ATOMIC FORCE MICROSCOPE
2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2324) [PDF 331KB](197)
Abstract:
To understand the deformation and removal mechanism of material on nano-scale and at ultralow loads, a systemic study on AFM micro/nano-machining on single crystal silicon is conducted. The results indicate that AFM nano-machining has a precisely dimensional controllability and a good surface quality on nanometerscale. ASEM is adopted to observe nano-machined region and chips, the results indicate that the material removal mechanisms change with the qpplied normal load. An XPS is used to analyze the changes of chemical composition inside and outside the nano-machined region respectively. The nano-indentation which is conducted with the same AFM diamond tip on the machined region shows a big discrepancy comparedwith that on the macro-scale. The calculated results show higher nano-hardness and elastic modulus than normal values. This phenomenon can be regarded as the indentation size effect (ISE).

2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2301) [PDF 178KB](87)
Abstract:
A three-dimensional finite-element simulation of stretching technological parameters of heavy forgings is performed by using ANSYS program. The law of internal stress distribution with different bt/h tool width ratio) and different bb/h(blank width ratio) is studied. Consequently, the critical tool width ratio (bt/h)cr and blank width ratio (bb/h)cr leading no bi-axial tension are botained. It lays a credible foundation for designing reasonable stretching technology.
CHARACTERISTICS OF ELECTROMECHANICAL COUPLING SELF-SYNCHRONIZATION OF A MULTI-MOTOR VIBRATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2285) [PDF 199KB](98)
Abstract:
Multi-motor vibratory transmission systems have been wide used in large vibratory machines, and four-motor linear vibratory machine is one typical equipment of them. Under non-forcible synchronization condition zero-phase synchronization of the machine is non-stationary and π-phase synchronization is stable. Under half-forcible synchronization condition in which only one motor is controlled being synchronous to another, only lag synchronization near zero-phase synchronization can be realized. Both of the characteristics have never been revealed with classical theory quantitatively. The problemis solved by means of eatablishing an electromechanical coupling mathematical model of the system and unmerical analysis of the starting processes.

APPLICATION OF IMAGE MANIPULATION FOR CAVITATION ANALYZING
2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2211) [PDF 213KB](142)
Abstract:
A new method, which is called image manipulation, is introduced to analyze the cavitation of flow field for the first time. As the complexity of the cavitation development must be considering, only the method of image manipulation can calculate the strengt of the cavitation more accurately. This method based on wavelet transform is used to eliminate the noise. The area of the cavitations is deduced to serve as the strength of cavitation. The method is applied in an example of inducer's rotating cavitation. The results show that using image manipulation can get the accurate date of cavitation with ease, and the reason of the inducer shaft's vibration is uncovered clearly.

[Abstract](2152) [PDF 138KB](80)
Abstract:
The class of system considered is a single degree of freedom undamped vibrating system with a clearance in which the dynamical behavior is described by a state-space representation in real time.

[Abstract](2133) [PDF 228KB](131)
Abstract:
A general industrial CCD(ICCD)camera is redesigned to detect the weld pool without arc at the period of short circuiting, so that the interference of arc and spatter during CO2 short circuiting arc welding is eliminated. Through the analysis of weld pool image, both size parameters (such as weld pool area A ,weld pool length L1,L2 and weld pool breadth b) and contour parameters(bi which describe the curves of weld pool boundany), which could indicate the shape features of weld pool, had been defined to express weld pool information quantitatively. The investigation of the relationships between weld pool shape parameters and welding process parameters may be beneficial to the quality control of CO2 welding.

NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR FAULT DIAGNOSIS BASED ON WAVELET DENOISING AND MODIFIED EXPONENTIAL TIME-FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION
2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2182) [PDF 230KB](76)
Abstract:
Fast wavelet multi-resolution analysis (wavelet MRA)provides a effective tool for annlyzing and canceling disturbing components in original signal. Because of its exponential frequency axis, the method isn't suitable for extracting harmonic components. The modified exponential time-frequency distribution (MED)overcomes the problems of Wigner distribution(WD),can suppress cross-terms and cancel noise further more.MED provides high resolution in both time and frequency domains, so it can make out weak period impulse components from signal with mighty harmonic components. According to the "time"behavior, together with "frequency"behavior in one figure, the essential structure of a signal is revealed clearly. According to the analysis of algorithm and fault diagnosis example, the joint of wavelet MRA and MED is a powerful tool for fault diagnosis.

2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2201) [PDF 255KB](8)
Abstract:
The piezothermoelectric actuator/sensor collocation for advanced intelligent structure is studied. The quasi-static equations of piezothermoelasticity are used to analyze the coupling effects between the displacement, temperature and electric fields of piezothermoelasticity continua and the governing equations for piezothermoelectric continua are derived to discuss the dffects of coupling factors on the control/sensing performance in intelligent structure. Based on those analyses, a finite element analysis model of distributed piezothermoelectric continua is developed later. The thermal stress and deformation of a beam are calculated by FEA method so as to determine the optimal actuator/sensor placement. Based on the results of the optimal analysis procedure of actuator/sensor placement, some conclusions of actuator/sensor placement are obtained. Thus, the optimal actuator/sensor placement for piezothermoelectric intelligent structure can be found from the actuator/sensor placements available so that intelligent system will have the best controllability and observability.

2001, 15(3).
[Abstract](2237) [PDF 337KB](113)
Abstract:
The method to detect droplet transfer by means of arc spectrum, while the experiment sets, testing principle and data processing procedure, are presented. The experiment and analysis results show that arc spectrum signal can be utilized to detect and measure the transfer procedure, the transfer modes and the transfer parameters. The arc spectrum signal enjoys excellent quality with high signal amplitude. Each transfer mode has its specific typical signal mode, and the pulse outline corresponds to an integrated transferring procedure of one droplet. All these features of arc spectrum signal can be easily applied in the control of transfer procedure, the identification and stabilization of transfer mode and the measurement of transfer parameters.
