This study investigates the influences of rotation angles (θ = 0°, 45°, 90°, 105°) on the surface morphology, microstructure, and mechanical properties of Inconel 718 (IN718) alloy produced by HP-LPBF. Results show that adopting low rotation angles (e.g., 0° and 45°) is prone to relatively poor surface finish and lack-of-fusion defects, whereas adopting high rotation angles (e.g., 90° and 105°) induces smaller surface roughness and better relative density. Each case reveals a noticeable edge effect but the maximal heights witness a downward trend with the increase of rotation angle. There are some minor differences in the primary dendrite arm spacing and grain morphology by varying the rotation angles. Moreover, the tensile property is slightly enhanced as the rotation angle increases. The present work suggests that high rotation angles like 90° and 105° would probably be more favorable for the 1 kW HP-LPBF process than rotation angles with relatively low values.展开更多

Methods This study selected the cheek, nose, and forehead as representative facial sites for UV irradiance measurements, which were performed using a rotating manikin and a spectroradiometer. The measured UV irradiance was weighted using action spectra to calculate the biologically effective UV irradiances that cause non-melanoma （UVBEnon.rnel） skin cancer. The biologically effective UV radiant exposure （HBEnon-mel） was calculated by summing the UVBEnon-mel data collected over the exposure period. Results This study revealed the following： （1） the maximum cheek, nose and forehead exposure UVA and UVB irradiance times and solar elevation angles （SEA） differed from those of the ambient UV irradiance and were influenced by the rotation angles; （2） the UV irradiance exposure increased in the following order： cheek 〈 nose 〈 forehead; （3） the distribution of UVBEnon-mel irradiance differed from that of unweighted UV radiation （UVR） and was influenced by the rotation angles and exposure times; and （4） the maximum percentage decreases in the UVBEnon-melradiant exposure for the cheek, nose and forehead from 0° to 180° were 48.41%, 69.48% and 71.71%, respectively. Conclusion Rotation angles relative to the sun influence the face＇s exposure to non-melanoma biologically effective UV.展开更多

It was found that when some blades had rotation angle deviations, the hydraulic performance curves of the mixed-flow pump would move. With a positive deviation, the curves moved towards the large flow rate; with a negative deviation, the curves moved towards the small flow rate. When some blades had rotation angle deviations, the symmetry and uniformity of the pressure distribution inside the mixed-flow pump flow passage both decreased; the larger the deviation, the greater the decrease. When a single blade had a large rotation angle deviation, a rather clear low pressure area was formed, lowering the cavitation performance. When two adjacent blades changed simultaneously, under the small flow rate condition, adverse pressure gradient and flow separation occurred in the flow field, and a hump appeared in the head curve and the operation stability of the mixed-flow pump dropped significantly. Near the best efficiency point（BEP）, the simultaneous change of two alternate blades produced a more significant change of pressure in the flow passage, with an even larger area. Compared to the effect of two adjacent blades, two alternate blades, when changed simultaneously, made the mixed-flow pump slightly less efficient, but with a flatter efficiency curve and relatively wider high efficiency area. By fitting the test results, a functional relation among the BEP of the mixed-flow pump QBEP, the number of deviated blades N, and blade rotation angle deviation α was established, thus realizing an effective prediction of the BEP of the mixed-flow pump when blade rotation angles have deviations.展开更多

The FBG rotation angle sensor mainly contains two core sensitivity elements （FBG1 and FBG2）, triangular cantilever beam, and rotation angle transfer element. In theory, the proposed sensor can achieve temperature self-compensation by complementation of the two core sensitivity elements （FBG1 and FBG2）, and it has a boundless angel measurement range with 2π rad period duo to the function of the rotation angle transfer element. Based on introducing the joint working processes, the theory calculation model of the FBG rotation angel sensor is established, and the calibration experiment on one prototype is also carried out to obtain its measurement performance. After experimental data analyses, the measurement precision of the FBG rotation angle sensor prototype is 0.2° with excellent linearity, and the temperature sensitivities of FBG1 and FBG2 are 10 pro2℃ and 10.1 pm/℃, correspondingly. All these experimental results confirm that the FBG rotation angle sensor can achieve large-range angle measurement with high precision and temperature self-compensation.展开更多

Research was conducted on small-sectioned (1000 mm × 220 mm) and large-sectioned (3250 mm × 220 mm) slab continuous casting molds with a fixed nozzle form (concave bottom nozzle, side port inclination angle of 0°). A three-dimensional electromagnetic model is established to analyze the current frequency, installation position, and rotation angle under the active deceleration mode and acceleration mode. The results indicate that, regardless of the deceleration mode for small-sectioned slabs or the acceleration mode for large-sectioned slabs, the magnetic flux density in the mold decreases with increasing current frequency. However, the maximum electromagnetic force initially increases and then decreases, suggesting that both electromagnetic modes have the same optimal current frequency (3 Hz). The optimal mechanical design parameters for the deceleration mode of electromagnetic variable flow device (EM-VFD) with the small-sectioned slab are as follows: installation position Z = 115 mm and rotation angle of 15°, ensuring that the maximum electromagnetic force is applied to the nozzle jet area. For the acceleration mode of the large-sectioned slab EM-VFD, the optimal mechanical design parameters are as follows: Z = 115 mm and rotation angle of 10°, ensuring that the maximum electromagnetic force is applied to 1/4 and 3/4 areas of the wide face. These findings indicate that the new electromagnetic variable flow device, which can actively adjust the flow rate and angle of the steel even under given working conditions, provides the possibility for reasonable control of the mold’s flow field.展开更多

First, a novel and efficient self- adaptive quantum rotation angle strategy is designed to direct the participating populations to mutual adaptive evolution and to accelerate convergence speed. Then, a multicascade model of cooperative and competitive mixed co-evolution is adopted to decompose the evolutionary attribute species into subpopulations according to their historical performance records, which can increase the diversity of subpopulations and select some elitist individuals so as to strengthen the sharing ability of their searching experience. So the global optimization reduction set can be obtained quickly. The experimental results show that, compared with the existing algorithms, the proposed algorithm can achieve a higher performance for attribute reduction, and it can be considered as a more competitive heuristic algorithm on the efficiency and accuracy of minimum attribute reduction.展开更多

The end-surface contactratio of gears is defined as the ratio of the action angle (the rotation angle of gear from gear-into gear-out for one pair of teeth) to the rotation angle per pitch (or central angle per tooth).According to the theory of gearing, equation of the meshing line can be deduced from the toothprofiles of basic rack. Having obtained the equation of the meshing line, and being given theaddendum outline of the gears, the contact ratio can be calculated with the calculation expressions.For the involute gears, this definition has same effect as the well-known definition: ratio of thecontact line to the base pitch. This definition of contact ratio is also suitable to othernon-involute gears, such as micro-segments profile gears, sine-curved profile gears, and can givemore reliable results.展开更多

This wo...Objective: There are no detailed reports of three-dimensional measurement of abutment teeth in mastication, because it is knotty to observe the rotation in chewing directly, and inexact to estimate indirectly. This work studies the three-dimensional stability of rigidly fixed bridge under the stresses of distributed loads and concentrated loads by optical method that gives the tip angle and rotation angle calculated directly based on measurement data. Methods: The specimen, taken from a 25-year-old male, was a left mandible without the second premolars and the first molars. As abutments, first premolar and second molar have complete periodontium. The specimen was soaked in formaldehyde solution. The bridge was fixed between two abutment teeth (first premolars and second molars), and the mandible was cemented in a steel box. The load was increased from 0 kg to 23 kg. Laser holographic technique was used to measure the three-dimensional bit shift of the dens, both buccolingual bit shift and mesiodistal bit shift, and determine tip angle and rotation angle. Results: The effects of stress distribution on the rigidly fixed bridge were evaluated, and stabilization of the bridge under the stresses of distributed loads and concentrated loads, respectively, were analyzed. The results showed that the tips of two abutments were very similar, and no distinct difference was observed between the distributed load and the concentrated load. However, the maximum rotation angle for the distributed load was two to four times as large as that for the concentrated load. In the experiment, the tip angle of the abutment teeth was no more than 0.65 degree, and the rotation angle was no more than 0.60 degree. All maximum angles occurred in the second molar. Conclusion: The fixed bridge is considered to be safe. In addition, a method for measuring the rotation angle was provided effectively.展开更多

A partial reinforced concrete system of a weak beam/strong column moment frame is chosen as an example. A pushover analysis is carried out in order to numerically examine both the story shear-relative displacement characteristics and the associated damage level. In the analysis, a two dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis is employed considering several constitutive models. As a result, the degradation of the stiffness at the damaged story is characterized in association with the story relative displacement. It is also pointed out that the rotation angle of the column-base is highly correlated with the story relative displacement. Based on the analytical findings, quantitative approaches for a structural health monitoring system are suggested considering both the current sensor technologies and those available in the future.

Based on the latest and the most advanced research on predicting potential near-field and far field earthquakes affecting Hong Kong, the engineering response spectra for both rock and soil sites are derived. A new step-by-step procedure for displacement-based seismic hazard assessment of building structures is proposed to determine the maximum inter-storey drift demand for reinforced concrete buildings. The primary information required for this assessment is only the depth of the soft soil above bedrock and the height of the building. This procedure is further extended to assess the maximum chord rotation angle demand for the coupling beam of coupled shear wall or frame wall structures, which may be very critical when subjected to earthquake forces. An example is provided to illustrate calibration of the assessment procedure by using actual engineering structural models.展开更多

文摘The seismic performance of a caisson structure under two types of models with a saturated sandy foundation(CSS)and an expanded polystyrene(EPS)composite soil foundation(CES)are studied using shaking table tests.The macro phenomena of the two different foundation models are described and analyzed.The effects of the replacement of EPS composite soil on seismic-induced liquefaction of backfill and the dynamic performance of a caisson structure are evaluated in detail.The results show that the excess pore water pressure generation in the CES is significantly slower than that in the CSS during the shaking.The dynamic earth pressure acting on the caisson has a triangular shape.The response of horizontal acceleration,displacement,settlement,and rotation angle of the caisson in the CES is smaller than that in the CSS,which means the caisson in the CES has a better seismic performance.Furthermore,the out-of-phase phenomenon between dynamic earth thrust and inertial force in the CES is more obvious than that in the CSS,which is beneficial to reduce the lateral force and improve the stability of the caisson structure.

文摘Obtaining a reasonable mold flow field for casting slabs with different sections is challenging by solely modifying the nozzle structure and continuous casting process. Research was conducted on small-sectioned (1000 mm × 220 mm) and large-sectioned (3250 mm × 220 mm) slab continuous casting molds with a fixed nozzle form (concave bottom nozzle, side port inclination angle of 0°). A three-dimensional electromagnetic model is established to analyze the current frequency, installation position, and rotation angle under the active deceleration mode and acceleration mode. The results indicate that, regardless of the deceleration mode for small-sectioned slabs or the acceleration mode for large-sectioned slabs, the magnetic flux density in the mold decreases with increasing current frequency. However, the maximum electromagnetic force initially increases and then decreases, suggesting that both electromagnetic modes have the same optimal current frequency (3 Hz). The optimal mechanical design parameters for the deceleration mode of electromagnetic variable flow device (EM-VFD) with the small-sectioned slab are as follows: installation position Z = 115 mm and rotation angle of 15°, ensuring that the maximum electromagnetic force is applied to the nozzle jet area. For the acceleration mode of the large-sectioned slab EM-VFD, the optimal mechanical design parameters are as follows: Z = 115 mm and rotation angle of 10°, ensuring that the maximum electromagnetic force is applied to 1/4 and 3/4 areas of the wide face. These findings indicate that the new electromagnetic variable flow device, which can actively adjust the flow rate and angle of the steel even under given working conditions, provides the possibility for reasonable control of the mold’s flow field.

文摘This article describes a series of studies on the effect of the rotation of the fissile 236U nucleus in the^(235)U(n,f)process induced by monochromatic polarized neutrons with energies of 62 meV and 270 meV.The studied effect is expressed as a shift in the anisotropic angular distribution ofγ-rays emitted by excited fission fragments by a small angle relative to the deformation axis of the fissile nucleus when the neutron beam polarization direction is reversed.All measurements were performed at the Heinz Mayer-Leibniz research neutron source(FRM Ⅱ reactor)of the Munich Technical University in Garching on the polarized neutron beam of the POLI instrument.To generalize all results obtained on ROT effects for fissionγ-rays,the results of earlier studies by the ITEP group for cold neutrons are re-processed,and the result obtained by the PNPI group for thermal neutrons is also presented.

文摘Due to the fact that conventional heuristic attribute reduction algorithms are poor in running efficiency and difficult in accomplishing the co-evolutionary reduction mechanism in the decision table, an adaptive multicascade attribute reduction algorithm based on quantum-inspired mixed co-evolution is proposed. First, a novel and efficient self- adaptive quantum rotation angle strategy is designed to direct the participating populations to mutual adaptive evolution and to accelerate convergence speed. Then, a multicascade model of cooperative and competitive mixed co-evolution is adopted to decompose the evolutionary attribute species into subpopulations according to their historical performance records, which can increase the diversity of subpopulations and select some elitist individuals so as to strengthen the sharing ability of their searching experience. So the global optimization reduction set can be obtained quickly. The experimental results show that, compared with the existing algorithms, the proposed algorithm can achieve a higher performance for attribute reduction, and it can be considered as a more competitive heuristic algorithm on the efficiency and accuracy of minimum attribute reduction.
文摘This paper presents the combustion characteristics in hybrid rocket motors with multisegmented grain through three-dimensional numerical simulations.Multi-segmented grain is composed of several thin grains with two or more ports.The numerical model consists of Navier-Stokes equations with turbulence,solid fuel pyrolysis,chemical reactions,a fluid–solid coupling model and a regression rate model.The simulations adopt 90%Hydrogen Peroxide(HP)and PolyEthylene(PE)as the propellant combination.The effects of the rotation,port number,fuel grain segment number and mid-chamber length on the flow field and combustion performances are analyzed.The results indicate that the multi-segmented grain configuration can strengthen the flow field,and the regression rate and combustion efficiency are enhanced.Take the cases with two grain segments and three ports for example,the regression rate is increased by 32.4%-45.1%and the combustion efficiency increases by 6%-8.6%in different rotation angles.
文摘Common definition and calculating expressions of end-surface contact ratiofor all type of gears are put forward, and with calculation expressions for involute gears,micro-segments profile gears, and sine-curved profile gears being discussed. The end-surface contactratio of gears is defined as the ratio of the action angle (the rotation angle of gear from gear-into gear-out for one pair of teeth) to the rotation angle per pitch (or central angle per tooth).According to the theory of gearing, equation of the meshing line can be deduced from the toothprofiles of basic rack. Having obtained the equation of the meshing line, and being given theaddendum outline of the gears, the contact ratio can be calculated with the calculation expressions.For the involute gears, this definition has same effect as the well-known definition: ratio of thecontact line to the base pitch. This definition of contact ratio is also suitable to othernon-involute gears, such as micro-segments profile gears, sine-curved profile gears, and can givemore reliable results.

文摘Objective: There are no detailed reports of three-dimensional measurement of abutment teeth in mastication, because it is knotty to observe the rotation in chewing directly, and inexact to estimate indirectly. This work studies the three-dimensional stability of rigidly fixed bridge under the stresses of distributed loads and concentrated loads by optical method that gives the tip angle and rotation angle calculated directly based on measurement data. Methods: The specimen, taken from a 25-year-old male, was a left mandible without the second premolars and the first molars. As abutments, first premolar and second molar have complete periodontium. The specimen was soaked in formaldehyde solution. The bridge was fixed between two abutment teeth (first premolars and second molars), and the mandible was cemented in a steel box. The load was increased from 0 kg to 23 kg. Laser holographic technique was used to measure the three-dimensional bit shift of the dens, both buccolingual bit shift and mesiodistal bit shift, and determine tip angle and rotation angle. Results: The effects of stress distribution on the rigidly fixed bridge were evaluated, and stabilization of the bridge under the stresses of distributed loads and concentrated loads, respectively, were analyzed. The results showed that the tips of two abutments were very similar, and no distinct difference was observed between the distributed load and the concentrated load. However, the maximum rotation angle for the distributed load was two to four times as large as that for the concentrated load. In the experiment, the tip angle of the abutment teeth was no more than 0.65 degree, and the rotation angle was no more than 0.60 degree. All maximum angles occurred in the second molar. Conclusion: The fixed bridge is considered to be safe. In addition, a method for measuring the rotation angle was provided effectively.

文摘The objective of this paper is to provide an analytical basis for the quantitative evaluation of damage to a reinforced concrete structure based on the vibration data obtained by using the damage detection technique. A partial reinforced concrete system of a weak beam/strong column moment frame is chosen as an example. A pushover analysis is carried out in order to numerically examine both the story shear-relative displacement characteristics and the associated damage level. In the analysis, a two dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis is employed considering several constitutive models. As a result, the degradation of the stiffness at the damaged story is characterized in association with the story relative displacement. It is also pointed out that the rotation angle of the column-base is highly correlated with the story relative displacement. Based on the analytical findings, quantitative approaches for a structural health monitoring system are suggested considering both the current sensor technologies and those available in the future.

文摘We employ finite element method to investigate the kinematics of non-axially positioned vesicles through a pore.To complete the coupling between fluid flow and the vesicle membranes,we use the fluid structure interactions with the arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian method.Our results demonstrate that the vesicles show different deformations in migration process,in turn an oblique ellipse-shape,slipper-shape,oval-shape.We find that the rotation angle of non-axially positioned vesicles mainly shows the trend of increase,besides the small fluctuation induced by deformation relaxation.Moreover,when the vesicles move towards the axis of the channel,the rotation angle exhibits a decrease because of the decrease of the shear force.However,rotation of axially positioned vesicles hardly occur due to symmetrical shear force.Our results further indicate that the rotation is faster nearby the pore for non-axially positioned vesicles.Our work answers the mapping between the positions of vesicles and deformed states,as well as the change of rotation angle and rotation velocity,which can provide helpful information on the utilization of vesicles in pharmaceutical,chemical,and physiological processes.

文摘This paper outlines a methodology to assess the seismic drift of reinforced concrete buildings with limited structural and geotechnical information. Based on the latest and the most advanced research on predicting potential near-field and far field earthquakes affecting Hong Kong, the engineering response spectra for both rock and soil sites are derived. A new step-by-step procedure for displacement-based seismic hazard assessment of building structures is proposed to determine the maximum inter-storey drift demand for reinforced concrete buildings. The primary information required for this assessment is only the depth of the soft soil above bedrock and the height of the building. This procedure is further extended to assess the maximum chord rotation angle demand for the coupling beam of coupled shear wall or frame wall structures, which may be very critical when subjected to earthquake forces. An example is provided to illustrate calibration of the assessment procedure by using actual engineering structural models.
