Following the dynamic bond percolation theory(DBPT),the chainmotion contribution to the ionic conduction was incorporated via periodical renewal of the randombond configuration. To check and extend the prediction made by DBPT employing global abruptbond renewal,spatial correlation of the bond reassignment was introduced to the system by: 1)regional bond renewal and 2) organized bond motion. It is found that the difference between thediffusivities simulated involving regional bond renewal and those of DBPT becomes negligiblewhen the bond renewal rate approaches the carrier hopping rate.展开更多

For SBS, the glass transition temperatures （Tgs） of B block and S block obtained by intrinsic fluorescence method were in good agreement with differential scanning calorimetry measurements （DSC）. In the case of SEBS, an isoemission point was observed at about 310 nm at ele- vated temperatures, suggesting the slight conversion between the monomer and excimer emission. On this basis, the molecular chain motion of SEBS was monitored by both fluorescence intensity and excimer/monomer fluorescence ratio. Besides the Tgs of S block and EB blocks, a melting point （Tin） of weak crystalline in EB block was unambiguously determined by intrinsic fluorescence. Furthermore, it was found that the melting process directly led to the slight loosening of PS segments in interface and consequently the reduction of the amount of excimer. A reasonable mechanism was proposed to describe the molecular chain movements and phase transitions of SEBS upon heating. Moreover, the influence of temperature on the apparent activation energy of non-radiative process （ E^T ） around Tg of S block was much stronger than that around Tg of B or EB blocks.展开更多

Shooting-aim method is employed for solving the dynamic equations of chain system in order to match the computation of buoy motion. The responses of buoy and chain have been computed for different wind-wave-current directions and different rigidity of chain. The results show that the present numerical model is reasonable.展开更多

Due to the existence of the clearances in chain link hinges, the serious impact vibration phenomenon which influences the stability and the position accuracy of the chain drive system would be caused in the intermittent motion. But, the problem may be that a reasonable modeling on the chain with clearances is difficult due to the large clearance＇s number in chain system and the fact that the clearance＇ size are different. Currently, the studies on the dynamics of the intermittent roller chain considering the multi-clearance＇ joints are rare. Most research works have only focused on the constant moving chains. Taking the intermittent roller chain system as an object, this paper designs and builds the experimental device of this kind of mechanical system. The Longitudinal vibration response of the intermittent chain under the different motion laws was tested. The experimental study shows that the clearances presented in chain link hinges can cause severe impact vibration in the intermittent motion of chain. In subsequent work, the dynamic model of the intermittent roller chain system with the multi-clearance＇ joints was established. By calculating the dynamic response of this kind of mechanical system under the different motion laws, the effect of the clearances on the dynamic response of the intermittent chain drive system was analyzed. The theoretical simulation shows that the serious impact vibration phenomenon of the chain system can be caused by the clearances at the start accelerating period, and the chain drive system is often accompanied by the severe shock and vibration at the moment that the chain moves from the acceleration period to deceleration period. The research conclusions made by the experimental and theoretical studies indicate that the use of motion laws with small and continuous jerk at conversion point can effectively suppress the impact vibration at this point caused by clearances＇ effect. Additionally, the use of nonsymmetrical motion laws with small jerk approaching the end of the indexing period can obtain a smaller residual vibration. The presented motion law can provide an important reference for the improvement of the dynamic performance of the intermittent chain drive systems.展开更多

However, data of the drag coefficients of chain links are rather limited, resulting in uncertainties with the calculations of the drag force, and hence the damping of the mooring system. In this paper, the importance of the selection of the drag coefficient is first investigated. The computational fluid dynamics(CFD) method is then used to determine the drag coefficients of a studless chain under steady flows. Numerical model validation is first completed by simulating a smooth circular cylinder under steady flows. In particular, the performance of different turbulence models is assessed through the comparisons between the calculations and the experimental results. The large eddy simulation(LES) model is finally selected for the simulation of steady flows past a chain. The effects of the Reynolds number on the drag coefficient of a stud-less chain is also studied. The results show that the calculated drag coefficients of a stud-less chain are fairly consistent with the available experimental data.展开更多
