The system model of roof-coal-floor was established. Based on the RFPA software, rock fracture process analysis system, the numerical test of deformation, fracture and energy transmission of nonlinear and nonhomogeneous rock-coal system, and the numerical test and evaluating method of impact trend of reck-coal system were achieved. When the same coal seam was in different roof and floor conditions, the fracture process of reck-coal system can be classified as gradual, sudden and delayed fracture three kinds, and their impact trend can be classified as void, intense and medium correspondingly. The rock-coal system＇s impact trend is evaluated by the system impact index p and burst expanding forms. The criteria μ are μ〈1.0, 1.0≤μ〈l .5 and μ≥1.5 when the impact trend is void, intense or medium, which are tested and verified by the No.2 and No.4 coal seams in Sun- cun mine.展开更多

文摘Previous studies on the hollow cylinder torsional shear test(HCTST)have mainly focused on the macroscopic behavior,while the micromechanical responses in soil specimens with shaped particles have rarely been investigated.This paper develops a numerical model of the HCTST using the discrete element method(DEM).The method of bonded spheres in a hexagonal arrangement is proposed to generate flexible boundaries that can achieve real-time adjustment of the internal and external cell pressures and capture the inhomogeneous deformation in the radial direction during shearing.Representative angular particles are selected from Toyoura sand and reproduced in this model to approximate real sand particles.The model is then validated by comparing numerical and experimental results of HCTSTs on Toyoura sand with different major principal stress directions.Next,a series of HCTSTs with different combinations of major principal stress direction(a)and intermediate principal stress ratio(b)is simulated to quantitatively characterize the sand behavior under different shear conditions.The results show that the shaped particles are horizontally distributed before shearing,and the initial anisotropic packing structure further results in different stressestrain curves in cases with different a and b values.The distribution of force chains is affected by both a and b during the shear process,together with the formation of the shear bands in different patterns.The contact normal anisotropy and contact force anisotropy show different evolution patterns when either a or b varies,resulting in the differences in the non-coaxiality and other macroscopic responses.This study improves the understanding of the macroscopic response of sand from a microscopic perspective and provides valuable insights for the constitutive modeling of sand.

文摘The impact trend of reck-coal system was studied by the method of accumulating and releasing of deformation energy and interaction of rock-coal system. The system model of roof-coal-floor was established. Based on the RFPA software, rock fracture process analysis system, the numerical test of deformation, fracture and energy transmission of nonlinear and nonhomogeneous rock-coal system, and the numerical test and evaluating method of impact trend of reck-coal system were achieved. When the same coal seam was in different roof and floor conditions, the fracture process of reck-coal system can be classified as gradual, sudden and delayed fracture three kinds, and their impact trend can be classified as void, intense and medium correspondingly. The rock-coal system＇s impact trend is evaluated by the system impact index p and burst expanding forms. The criteria μ are μ〈1.0, 1.0≤μ〈l .5 and μ≥1.5 when the impact trend is void, intense or medium, which are tested and verified by the No.2 and No.4 coal seams in Sun- cun mine.

文摘Considering the challenges posed by external disturbances on carrier-based aircraft land-ing control,higher demands are required for the precision and convergence of the carrier landingcontrol system.First,this paper proposes an Adaptive Terminal Sliding Combined Super TwistingControl(ATS-STC)method to address the issues of low precision,slow convergence,and poor dis-turbance rejection capability resulting from external disturbances,such as carrier air-wake and deckmotion.By introducing a nonlinear term into the sliding surface and employing an integralapproach,the proposed ATS-STC method can ensure finite-time convergence and mitigate the chat-tering problem.An adaptive law is also utilized to estimate the external disturbances,therebyenhancing the anti-disturbance performance.Then,the stability and convergence time analysis ofthe designed controller are conducted.Based on the proposed method,an Automatic Carrier Land-ing System(ACLS)is developed to perform the carrier landing control task.Furthermore,a multi-dimensional validation is carried out.For the numerical simulation test,the Terminal Sliding ModeControl(TSMC)method and Proportion Integration Differentiation(PID)method are introducedas comparison,the quantitative assessment results show that the tracking error of TSMC and PIDcan reach 1.5 times and 2 times that of the proposed method.Finally,the Hardware-in-the-Loop(HIL)test and real flight test are conducted.All the experimental results demonstrate that the pro-posed control method is more effective and precise.

文摘The growing importance of maintaining and extending the functional lifespan of reinforced concrete structures has resulted in an increased emphasis on non-destructive testing techniques as essential tools for evaluating structural conditions.Non-destructive testing procedures offer a notable benefit in assessing the uniformity,homogeneity,ability to withstand compression,durability,and degree of corrosion in reinforcing bars within reinforced concrete structures.This study aimed to evaluate the existing condition of partially constructed residential buildings in Rewari district,located in the state of Haryana.The reinforced concrete structure of the building had been completed eight years ago,however,the project was abruptly stopped.Prior to recommencing the construction,it is important to assess the present state of the structure in order to evaluate the deterioration in Reinforced Cement Concrete(RCC).The building’s state was evaluated by visually inspecting the building,conducting on-site examinations,and analyzing samples in a laboratory.The findings emphasize the assessment of the robustness and durability of concrete to ascertain the degree of deterioration and degradation in the structure.The study incorporates visual inspection,and non-destructive evaluation utilizing different instruments to evaluate the corrosion condition of reinforcing bars.In addition,selected RCC columns,beams,and slabs undergo chemical testing.It has been observed that the strength results and chemical results were within permissible limits.
文摘In heavy-duty long-distance transmission scenarios,steel wire ropes are widely used due to their unique advantages,and their safety is very important,which has also led to the rapid development of non-destructive testing technology for steel wire ropes.The non-destructive testing technology for steel wire ropes is influenced by various factors such as its own structure and external working environment,and the testing process is relatively complex.Multiple testing methods and related types of sensors have also emerged.The electromagnetic detection method is currently the most effective method,but it also has its limitations in development and has not yet fully achieved the expected detection goals.In order to completely replace manual inspection work with the development of non-destructive testing technology for steel wire ropes,more in-depth research and long-term accumulation are still needed.

文摘Astronomical site selection work is very hard.Unmanned technologies are important trends and solutions.We present a relatively easy method to plan a high reliability site selection which can extend the time from site deployment to returning for maintaining by unmanned confirming the site.First,we redefine the reliability of a site selection deployment with the parameter of the trusty time,which means when we must return,and which can be relatively easy for estimating.The redefinition makes the reliability parameter as a Bayesian probability,and can be obtained by estimating besides testing,which makes the evaluation of each device's reliability much easier.Then we use block diagram tools in the Matlab Simulink software to construct structure diagram,and to link each component with relations of parallel,serial,protection,and so on.This makes the whole reliability value can be calculated at the time when we design or plan a site selection.We applied this concept and method in an actual site selection in Lenghu,Qinghai Province,China.The survey practice reveals its effectiveness and simpleness.
文摘In 2023,a multivariate normality test based on a chi-square approximation was developed.This method assumes independence among Gaussian random variables,and defines the test statistic,denoted by Q,as the sum of squared values.This study aims to develop R scripts that implement the Q-test for mul-tivariate normality using either the Shapiro-Wilk W statistic(QSWa)or the Shapiro-Francia W’statistic(QSFa).A bootstrap version of the Q-test(QSWb and QSFb),which does not assume independence,is also included.Addition-ally,it incorporates Royston’s H-test.The use of the scripts is illustrated with a sample of 50 participants assessed on a variable across four yearly admin-istrations.The sampling distribution generated by the bootstrap method dif-fers from the chi-square distribution and corresponds to a generalized chisquare distribution-namely,the distribution of a sum of squares of correlated variables.This distribution is less peaked and has a heavier right tail than the chi-square distribution.It is concluded that the bootstrap approach is con-servative under the null hypothesis of multivariate normality;however,it is theoretically more appropriate than the chi-square approximation.To ap-proximate the distributions of the two versions of the Q-test,it is recom-mended that the z or z’values set to zero in the calculation of the Q statistic not be subtracted when determining the degrees of freedom in the chi-square approximation.Moreover,a significance level of 10%is suggested for the bootstrap approach,rather than the conventional 5%.

文摘A dimensionless load-displacement model based on the energy-density equivalence principle is proposed to obtain the stress-strain relationships of metallic materials under monotonic indentations with various diameters of spherical indenters.Finite element simulations are carried out to verify the constitutive relations from the new model,involving indentations made with various spherical indenters.For each indenter,some quasi-static spherical indentation tests are conducted on the materials with 40 preset constitutive relationships.The results indicate that the stress-strain curves predicted by the model align with the preset curves under 200 loading conditions.Moreover,the goodness-of-fit between the predicted stress-strain curves and the preset curves exceeds0.96 for all indenters and materials.In the end,the indentation tests are conducted by the spherical indenters with the diameters of 1.587 mm for fifteen metallic materials and1 mm for eight metallic materials.The results show that the stress-strain curves obtained by the spherical indentation based on the new model closely match those obtained from the uniaxial tensile tests.The relative errors for both the proof strength at 0.2%plastic extension and the tensile strength are below 5%.
