The contact modes are classified into dense contact, local non-contact, and loose contact. Subsequently, the corresponding mechanical model for each contact mode is developed according to its mechanical characteristics using the complex variable method. In the proposed mechanical model, a special algorithm is introduced to detect whether the local non-contact zone is re-contacted. Besides, a novel conformal mapping method is also proposed to accurately calculate the mechanical response of the concrete lining. Finally, the accuracy of the proposed method is verified by comparing it with the finite element method(FEM). Several parameter investigations are conducted to analyze the effects of different contact modes on the rock-lining interaction. The results show that:(i) the height of the local noncontact area does not have a significant effect on the contact stress distribution if no re-contact occurs;(ii) backfill grouting can reduce the local stress concentration caused by poor contact modes;and(iii) reducing the friction coefficient of the interface can lead to a more uniform distribution of internal forces in the concrete lining.展开更多

A so-called new multi-domain method has been developed based on the fluid domain division by an analytical control surface surrounding bodies and the application of different methods adapted in the external and internal domains. In the analytical domain external to the control surface, the fundamental solution satisfying the linear boundary condition on the free surface associated with a point singularity （often called Green fimction and referred here as point solution） is applied to capture all wavy features of free-surface flows extending horizontally to infinity. Unlike classical studies in which the control surface is discretized, the unknown velocity potential and its normal derivatives are expressed by expansions of orthogonal elementary functions. The velocity potential associa- ted with each elementary distribution （elementary solutions） on the control surface can be obtained by performing multi-fold inte- grals in an analytical way. In the domain internal to the control surface containing the bodies, we could apply different methods like the Rankine source method based on the boundary integral equations for which the elementary solutions obtained in the external domain playing the role of Dirichlet-to-Neumarm operator close the problem.展开更多

By combining energy and mass balance equations with heat and mass transfer coefficients and air psychrometric correlations, the model provides insights into the impact of design and operational parameters on the exchanger cooling performance. Validated against an established numerical model, it accurately simulates cooling behavior with a Root Mean Square Deviation of 0.43 - 1.18˚C under varying inlet air conditions. The results show that tube geometry, including equivalent diameter, flatness ratio, and length significantly influences cooling outcomes. Smaller diameters enhance wet-bulb effectiveness but reduce cooling capacity, while increased flatness and length improve both. For example, extending the flatness ratio of a 15 mm diameter, 0.6 m long tube from 1 (circular) to 4 raises the exchange surface area from 0.028 to 0.037 m2, increasing wet-bulb effectiveness from 60% to 71%. Recommended diameters range from 5 mm for tubes under 0.5 m to 1 cm for tubes 0.5 to 1 m in length. Optimal air velocities depend on tube length: 1 m/s for tubes under 0.8 m, 1.5 m/s for lengths of 0.8 to 1.2 m, and up to 2 m/s for longer tubes. This model offers a practical alternative to complex numerical and CFD methods, with potential applications in cooling tower optimization for thermal and nuclear power plants and geothermal heat exchangers.展开更多

In the new approach, the effect of the initial transformation temperature and the accurate ＂temperature integral＂ approximations are incorporated to obtain an extended analytical model. Numerical approach demonstrated that the extended analytical model prediction for transformed fraction and transformation rate is in good agreement with the exact numerical calculation. The new model can describe more precisely the kinetic behavior than the original analytical model, especially for transformation with relatively high initial transformation temperature. The kinetic parameters obtained from the new model are more accurate and reasonable than those from the original analytical model.展开更多

Conve...Automotive suspension control arm is used to join the steering knuckle to the vehicle frame. Its main function is to provide stability under fatigue stresses of loading and unloading in accelerating and braking. Conventionally, these parts were made of steel; however, fuel consumption and emission of polluting gases are strongly dependent on car weight. Recently, there is a try to develop and design much lighter and better fatigue resistant metal of semisolid A357 aluminum alloys. This work aims at a better understanding of identifying the fatigue strain-hardening parameters used for determining fatigue characteristics of aluminum suspension control arm using analytical and mathematical modeling. The most judicious method is to perform the fatigue tests on standardized test pieces and then plot two Wohler curves, mainly number of cycles as a function of the stress and as a function of the deformation. From these curves and following a certain mathematical and analytical methods, certain curves are plotted and then all of these coefficients are drawn. The new calculated parameters showed a clear improvement of the fatigue curve towards the experimental curve performed on the samples of aluminum alloy A357 compared with the same analytical curve for the same alloy.展开更多

文摘Surface defects,including dents,spalls,and cracks,for rolling element bearings are the most common faults in rotating machinery.The accurate model for the time-varying excitation is the basis for the vibration mechanism analysis and fault feature extraction.However,in conventional investigations,this issue is not well and fully addressed from the perspective of theoretical analysis and physical derivation.In this study,an improved analytical model for time-varying displacement excitations(TVDEs)caused by surface defects is theoretically formulated.First and foremost,the physical mechanism for the effect of defect sizes on the physical process of rolling element-defect interaction is revealed.According to the physical interaction mechanism between the rolling element and different types of defects,the relationship between time-varying displacement pulse and defect sizes is further analytically derived.With the obtained time-varying displacement pulse,the dynamic model for the deep groove bearings considering the internal excitation caused by the surface defect is established.The nonlinear vibration responses and fault features induced by surface defects are analyzed using the proposed TVDE model.The results suggest that the presence of surface defects may result in the occurrence of the dual-impulse phenomenon,which can serve as indexes for surface-defect fault diagnosis.
文摘This paper presents a physics⁃based compact gate delay model that includes all short⁃channel phenomena prevalent at the ultra⁃deep submicron technology node of 32 nm.To simplify calculations,the proposed model is connected to a compactα⁃power law⁃based(Sakurai⁃Newton)model.The model has been tested on a wide range of supply voltages.The model accurately predicts nominal delays and the delays under process variations.It has been shown that at lower technology nodes,the delay is more sensitive to threshold voltage variations,specifically at the sub⁃threshold operating region as compared with effective channel length variations above the threshold region.
文摘The wavy （oscillatory both in space and in time） properties of free-surface flows due to presence of floating bodies are analyzed within the framework of the potential-flow theory by assuming that the fluid is perfect and flow irrotational. A so-called new multi-domain method has been developed based on the fluid domain division by an analytical control surface surrounding bodies and the application of different methods adapted in the external and internal domains. In the analytical domain external to the control surface, the fundamental solution satisfying the linear boundary condition on the free surface associated with a point singularity （often called Green fimction and referred here as point solution） is applied to capture all wavy features of free-surface flows extending horizontally to infinity. Unlike classical studies in which the control surface is discretized, the unknown velocity potential and its normal derivatives are expressed by expansions of orthogonal elementary functions. The velocity potential associa- ted with each elementary distribution （elementary solutions） on the control surface can be obtained by performing multi-fold inte- grals in an analytical way. In the domain internal to the control surface containing the bodies, we could apply different methods like the Rankine source method based on the boundary integral equations for which the elementary solutions obtained in the external domain playing the role of Dirichlet-to-Neumarm operator close the problem.

文摘Control signaling is mandatory for the operation and management of all types of communication networks,including the Third Generation Partnership Project(3GPP)mobile broadband networks.However,they consume important and scarce network resources such as bandwidth and processing power.There have been several reports of these control signaling turning into signaling storms halting network operations and causing the respective Telecom companies big financial losses.This paper draws its motivation from such real network disaster incidents attributed to signaling storms.In this paper,we present a thorough survey of the causes,of the signaling storm problems in 3GPP-based mobile broadband networks and discuss in detail their possible solutions and countermeasures.We provide relevant analytical models to help quantify the effect of the potential causes and benefits of their corresponding solutions.Another important contribution of this paper is the comparison of the possible causes and solutions/countermeasures,concerning their effect on several important network aspects such as architecture,additional signaling,fidelity,etc.,in the form of a table.This paper presents an update and an extension of our earlier conference publication.To our knowledge,no similar survey study exists on the subject.
文摘This study develops an analytical model to evaluate the cooling performance of a porous terracotta tubular direct evaporative heat and mass exchanger. By combining energy and mass balance equations with heat and mass transfer coefficients and air psychrometric correlations, the model provides insights into the impact of design and operational parameters on the exchanger cooling performance. Validated against an established numerical model, it accurately simulates cooling behavior with a Root Mean Square Deviation of 0.43 - 1.18˚C under varying inlet air conditions. The results show that tube geometry, including equivalent diameter, flatness ratio, and length significantly influences cooling outcomes. Smaller diameters enhance wet-bulb effectiveness but reduce cooling capacity, while increased flatness and length improve both. For example, extending the flatness ratio of a 15 mm diameter, 0.6 m long tube from 1 (circular) to 4 raises the exchange surface area from 0.028 to 0.037 m2, increasing wet-bulb effectiveness from 60% to 71%. Recommended diameters range from 5 mm for tubes under 0.5 m to 1 cm for tubes 0.5 to 1 m in length. Optimal air velocities depend on tube length: 1 m/s for tubes under 0.8 m, 1.5 m/s for lengths of 0.8 to 1.2 m, and up to 2 m/s for longer tubes. This model offers a practical alternative to complex numerical and CFD methods, with potential applications in cooling tower optimization for thermal and nuclear power plants and geothermal heat exchangers.

文摘How to ensure the safety of occupants has become a challenge for protective design of armored vehicles against intensive blast loadings.In this study,for armored vehicles subjected to shallow-buried explosions,an analytical model was established to characterize the dynamic performance of an all-metallic sandwich floorboard attached with a double mass-spring-damping system(mimicking seat and occupant),with the former consisting of a front face,a core and a rear face.For validation,numerical simulations with the method of finite elements(FE)were performed.Good agreement between analytical predictions and numerical results was achieved.The analytical model was then employed to quantify the effects of explosive mass,yield stress of material make,configurational parameters of sandwich panel,spring stiffness,and damping coefficient on dynamic response of the sandwich panel and double mass-spring-damping system.With increasing explosive mass and decreasing yield stress of material make,the peak displacements of rear face,seat and occupant were all found to increase.As core relative density was increased,these peak displacements also increased when the ratio of face thickness to core height was relatively small.Increasing the ratio of face thickness to core height led to increased peak accelerations of seat and occupant.The peak displacement of rear face was insensitive to the increase of either spring stiffness or damping coefficient,while the peak acceleration of occupant increased with increasing spring stiffness.Upon increasing the damping coefficient between the rear face and seat or that between the seat and occupant or both,the peak acceleration of occupant increased.With occupant safety duly considered,the proposed analytical model provides useful guidance for designing high-performance protective structures for armored vehicles subjected to intensive blast loadings.

文摘A new analytical model for geometric size and forming force prediction in incremental flanging(IF)is presented in this work.The complex deformation characteristics of IF are considered in the modeling process,which can accurately describe the strain and stress states in IF.Based on strain analysis,the model can predict the material thickness distribution and neck height after IF.By considering contact area,strain characteristics,material thickness changes,and friction,the model can predict specific moments and corresponding values of maximum axial forming force and maximum horizontal forming force during IF.In addition,an IF experiment involving different tool diameters,flanging diameters,and opening hole diameters is conducted.On the basis of the experimental strain paths,the strain characteristics of different deformation zones are studied,and the stable strain ratio is quantitatively described through two dimensionless parameters:relative tool diameter and relative hole diameter.Then,the changing of material thickness and forming force in IF,and the variation of minimum material thickness,neck height,maximum axial forming force,and maximum horizontal forming force with flanging parameters are studied,and the reliability of the analytical model is verified in this process.Finally,the influence of the horizontal forming force on the tool design and the fluctuation of the forming force are explained.

文摘Departing from an analytical phase transformation model, a new analytical approach to deduce transformed fraction for non-isothermal phase transformation was developed. In the new approach, the effect of the initial transformation temperature and the accurate ＂temperature integral＂ approximations are incorporated to obtain an extended analytical model. Numerical approach demonstrated that the extended analytical model prediction for transformed fraction and transformation rate is in good agreement with the exact numerical calculation. The new model can describe more precisely the kinetic behavior than the original analytical model, especially for transformation with relatively high initial transformation temperature. The kinetic parameters obtained from the new model are more accurate and reasonable than those from the original analytical model.
文摘Automotive suspension control arm is used to join the steering knuckle to the vehicle frame. Its main function is to provide stability under fatigue stresses of loading and unloading in accelerating and braking. Conventionally, these parts were made of steel; however, fuel consumption and emission of polluting gases are strongly dependent on car weight. Recently, there is a try to develop and design much lighter and better fatigue resistant metal of semisolid A357 aluminum alloys. This work aims at a better understanding of identifying the fatigue strain-hardening parameters used for determining fatigue characteristics of aluminum suspension control arm using analytical and mathematical modeling. The most judicious method is to perform the fatigue tests on standardized test pieces and then plot two Wohler curves, mainly number of cycles as a function of the stress and as a function of the deformation. From these curves and following a certain mathematical and analytical methods, certain curves are plotted and then all of these coefficients are drawn. The new calculated parameters showed a clear improvement of the fatigue curve towards the experimental curve performed on the samples of aluminum alloy A357 compared with the same analytical curve for the same alloy.
