Traditional method, which is carried out mainly by means of twodimensional drawings and textures, is not efficient and intuitive enough to analyze the whole project and reflect its spatial relationship. Three-dimensional visual simulation provides an advanced technical means of solving this problem. In this paper, triangular irregular network (TIN) model simplified by non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) technique was used to establish the digital terrain model (DTM) of a super large region. Simulation of dynamic water surface was realized by combining noise function with sine wave superposition method. Models of different objects were established with different modeling techniques according to their characteristics. Application of texture mapping technology remarkably improved the authenticity of the models. Taking the tidal defense engineering in the new coastal region of Tianjin as a case study, three-dimensional visual simulation and dynamic roaming of the study area were realized, providing visual analysis and visible demonstration method for the management and emergency decision-making associated with construction.展开更多

Comparative investigation on the three-dimensional and the cross-sectional characteristics of normal grain growth was done. It was found that the time exponent of grain growth determined from cross-section exhibits the same rule of increasing slowly with time and approaching the theoretical value n = 0.5 of steadygrain growth as the three-dimensional (3-D) system. From change of the number of grains per unit area with timemeasured in cross-section, the state of 3-D normal grain growth may be predicted. The gtain size distribution incross-section is different from that in 3-D system and can not express the evolution characteristic of the 3-D distribution. Furthermore, there exists statistical connection between the topological parameters in cross-section and thosein three-dimensions.展开更多

Referring to the visualized material flow patterns, a three-dimensional model was developed to conduct the numerical simulation of the temperature profile and plastic material flow in friction stir welding. The calculated velocity contour of plastic flow in close proximity of the tool is generally consistent with the visualized results. As the tool rotation speed increases at a constant tool travel speed, the material flow near the pin gets stronger. The predicted shape and size of the weld nugget zone match with the experimentally measured ones.展开更多

The effects of the Reynolds number, fiber volume fraction, and aspect ratio are analyzed. The results show that the fiber injection in the flow has a delay effect on the streamwise velocity decay along the jet axis, and such an effect becomes more obvious with the increases in the fiber volume fraction and aspect ratio and the decrease in the Reynolds number. The flow with fibers shows an increase in the streamwise velocity along the radial direction, and the increase magnitude is directly proportional to the fiber volume fraction and aspect ratio and inversely proportional to the Reynolds number. The presence of fibers makes the turbulent kinetic energy and Reynolds stress increase, and the extent increases with the fiber volume fraction, Reynolds number, and fiber aspect ratio.展开更多

By describing features of gas-water flow and distribution and their variations in the micro-nano pore system, it is found that the gas charging in the low permeability(tight) sandstone can be divided into two stages, expansion stage and stable stage. In the expansion stage, the gas flows continuously first into large-sized pores then small-sized pores, and first into centers of the pores then edges of pores;pore-throats greater than 20 μm in radius make up the major pathway for gas charging. With the increase of charging pressure, movable water in the edges of large-sized pores and in the centers of small pores is displaced out successively. Pore-throats of 20-50 μm in radius and pore-throats less than 20 μm in radius dominate the expansion of gas charging channels at different stages of charging in turn, leading to reductions in pore-throat radius, throat length and coordination number of the pathway, which is the main increase stage of gas permeability and gas saturation. Among which, pore-throats 30-50 μm in radius control the increase pattern of gas saturation. In the stable stage, gas charging pathways have expanded to the maximum, so the pathways keep stable in pore-throat radius, throat length, and coordination number, and irreducible water remains in the pore system, the gas phase is in concentrated clusters, while the water phase is in the form of dispersed thin film, and the gas saturation and gas permeability tend stable. Connected pore-throats less than 20 μm in radius control the expansion limit of the charging pathways, the formation of stable gas-water distribution, and the maximum gas saturation. The heterogeneity of connected pore-throats affects the dynamic variations of gas phase charging and gas-water distribution. It can be concluded that the pore-throat configuration and heterogeneity of the micro-nanometer pore system control the dynamic variations of the low-permeability(tight) sandstone gas charging process and gas-water distribution features.展开更多

This paper focuses on the key problems of visualization simulation in pressing die. The final aim is that numerical simulation system can simulate the process of processing forming technique, which can supply some necessary and accurate key parameters for die design. The detail description of mechanical characteristic and key technique of sheet forming technique is discussed. Pressing forming method is one of the most important forming techniques of metal forming, which has special mechanical characteristics. The character of sheet pressing forming is that the deformation of thickness direction is very small in contrast to other directions. The deformation mode of sheet forming mainly has the following kinds: bi-directional stretch, plane stress, stretches, depths extend, bending and counter-bending. The essence of press forming is the transferring course that the transferring region of rough comes to deformation by outside force, which is main researching principle in forming and the transferring field. The analysis of pressing forming course, disclose the feature of stress-strain and their changing rule, then pressing process and forming parameters could be obtained. So the states of force and deformation of transferring region is key to determine character about the varieties of pressing transferring. The paper analyzes these factors, which may influence forming precision in pressing process. In traditional methods, some key parameter such as spring-back, bending radius for die design are calculated by experience formula or select from data table. The paper brings forward the calculation methods of key parameter in the case of drawing finite element method and numerical simulation into pressing die design. In order to calculate the value of key parameters based on data supplied by FEM, a numerical simulation application is finished combined with two descriptions of work piece deformation NURBS and discrete piece. The numerical simulation is programmed on Microsoft Visual C++ with OpenGL as the graphics tool. It establishes numerical simulation program, dynamically simulates the process of sheet pressing figuration, and gets good effects.展开更多

Combining deterministic simulation with stochastic simulation, the simulation and visualization of the recrystallization microstructure of Ti-15-3 alloy after hot compression deformation and solution treatment were realized. Comparison of the simulated results with the experimental ones suggests that the size and distribution of the simulated recrystallized grains agree well with the actual ones. This proves that the obtained statistic equivalent microstructure models are effective. This study is helpful for determining reasonable hot forming process and improving the forming quality.展开更多

文摘With the aim of visualizing the real-time simulation calculation of water delivery system (WDS), a structural drawing-oriented (SDO) simulation technique was presented, and applied to Zhangjiuhe Diversion Project, which is a long-distance water delivery system constructed for draw- ing water from the Zhangjiuhe River to Kunming city. Taking SIMULINK software as simulating plat-form, the technique established a visual dynamic simulation model for the system. The simulation procedure of the system was simplified,and the efficiency of modeling was also enhanced according to the modularization and reutilization of the simulation program. Furthermore, a self-optimization model was presented. Based on the digital simulation models, the on line controlled optimization link was added, and the input data can be continually optimized according to the feedback information of simulating output. The system was thus optimized automatically. Built upon MATLAB software, simulation optimization of the Zhangjiuhe Diversion Project was achieved, which provides a new way for the research of optimal operation of WDS.

文摘A micro-nano pore three-dimensional visualized real-time physical simulation of natural gas charging, in-situ pore-scale computation, pore network modelling, and apparent permeability evaluation theory were used to investigate laws of gas and water flow and their distribution, and controlling factors during the gas charging process in low-permeability(tight) sandstone reservoir. By describing features of gas-water flow and distribution and their variations in the micro-nano pore system, it is found that the gas charging in the low permeability(tight) sandstone can be divided into two stages, expansion stage and stable stage. In the expansion stage, the gas flows continuously first into large-sized pores then small-sized pores, and first into centers of the pores then edges of pores;pore-throats greater than 20 μm in radius make up the major pathway for gas charging. With the increase of charging pressure, movable water in the edges of large-sized pores and in the centers of small pores is displaced out successively. Pore-throats of 20-50 μm in radius and pore-throats less than 20 μm in radius dominate the expansion of gas charging channels at different stages of charging in turn, leading to reductions in pore-throat radius, throat length and coordination number of the pathway, which is the main increase stage of gas permeability and gas saturation. Among which, pore-throats 30-50 μm in radius control the increase pattern of gas saturation. In the stable stage, gas charging pathways have expanded to the maximum, so the pathways keep stable in pore-throat radius, throat length, and coordination number, and irreducible water remains in the pore system, the gas phase is in concentrated clusters, while the water phase is in the form of dispersed thin film, and the gas saturation and gas permeability tend stable. Connected pore-throats less than 20 μm in radius control the expansion limit of the charging pathways, the formation of stable gas-water distribution, and the maximum gas saturation. The heterogeneity of connected pore-throats affects the dynamic variations of gas phase charging and gas-water distribution. It can be concluded that the pore-throat configuration and heterogeneity of the micro-nanometer pore system control the dynamic variations of the low-permeability(tight) sandstone gas charging process and gas-water distribution features.

文摘To fulfill the training requirements for the daily operations of multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)clusters,a UAV cluster collaborative task integrated simulation platform(UAV-TISP)was developed.The platform integrates a suite of hardware and software to simulate a range of collaborative UAV cluster operation scenarios.It features modules for collaborative task planning,UAV cluster simulations,and tactical monitoring.The platform significantly reduces training costs by eliminating physical drone dependencies while offering a flexible environment for testing swarm algorithms.UAV-TISP supports both individual UAV and swarm operations,incorporating high-fidelity flight dynamics,real-time communication via user datagram protocol(UDP),and collision avoidance strategies.Utilizing the OSGEarth engine,it enables dynamic 3D environment visualization and scenario customization.Three key task scenarios-route flight,formation reconstruction,and formation transformation-were tested to validate the platform’s efficacy.Results demonstrated robust formation maintenance,adaptive collision avoidance,and seamless task execution.Comparative analysis with Gazebo Sim revealed lower trajectory deviations in UAV-TISP,highlighting its superior accuracy in simulating real-world flight dynamics.Future work will focus on enhancing scalability for diverse UAV models,optimizing swarm networking under communication constraints,and expanding mission scenarios.UAV-TISP serves as a versatile tool for both operational training and advanced algorithm development in UAV cluster applications.
文摘Pressing process is a manufacturing method that obtained work piece with certain dimension, shape and capability through die forcing roughcast to produce plastic deformation or separate. This paper focuses on the key problems of visualization simulation in pressing die. The final aim is that numerical simulation system can simulate the process of processing forming technique, which can supply some necessary and accurate key parameters for die design. The detail description of mechanical characteristic and key technique of sheet forming technique is discussed. Pressing forming method is one of the most important forming techniques of metal forming, which has special mechanical characteristics. The character of sheet pressing forming is that the deformation of thickness direction is very small in contrast to other directions. The deformation mode of sheet forming mainly has the following kinds: bi-directional stretch, plane stress, stretches, depths extend, bending and counter-bending. The essence of press forming is the transferring course that the transferring region of rough comes to deformation by outside force, which is main researching principle in forming and the transferring field. The analysis of pressing forming course, disclose the feature of stress-strain and their changing rule, then pressing process and forming parameters could be obtained. So the states of force and deformation of transferring region is key to determine character about the varieties of pressing transferring. The paper analyzes these factors, which may influence forming precision in pressing process. In traditional methods, some key parameter such as spring-back, bending radius for die design are calculated by experience formula or select from data table. The paper brings forward the calculation methods of key parameter in the case of drawing finite element method and numerical simulation into pressing die design. In order to calculate the value of key parameters based on data supplied by FEM, a numerical simulation application is finished combined with two descriptions of work piece deformation NURBS and discrete piece. The numerical simulation is programmed on Microsoft Visual C++ with OpenGL as the graphics tool. It establishes numerical simulation program, dynamically simulates the process of sheet pressing figuration, and gets good effects.

文摘Simulation models for heterogeneous and simultaneous nucleation and random growth of nuclei were developed in terms of the mechanism of recrystallization and Monte Carlo stochastic simulation method. Combining deterministic simulation with stochastic simulation, the simulation and visualization of the recrystallization microstructure of Ti-15-3 alloy after hot compression deformation and solution treatment were realized. Comparison of the simulated results with the experimental ones suggests that the size and distribution of the simulated recrystallized grains agree well with the actual ones. This proves that the obtained statistic equivalent microstructure models are effective. This study is helpful for determining reasonable hot forming process and improving the forming quality.
