Considering the tmcertainties of material properties, the frequency constraint reliability of the structure is evaluated by the combination of response surface method (RSM) and finite element method. An optimization algorithm is developed based on the mechanism of laminate frequency characteristics, to optimize the laminate in terms of the ply amount and orientation angles. Numerical examples of composite laminates and cylindrical shell illustrate the advantages of the present optimization algorithm on the efficiency and applicability respects. The optimal solutions of RBO are obviously different from the deterministic optimization results, and the necessity of considering material property uncertainties in the composite structural frequency constraint optimization is revealed.展开更多

The method uses the relative bridging oxygen number (RBO) based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and 29Si NMR techniques have been used to study phase transitions and silicate polymerization of coal gangue calcined at different temperatures or co-calcined. It has been found that phase transition of clay minerals causes silicate polymerization to change with temperature. In this study, cementing activity and RBO were determined to be inversely related. Generally, activated coal gangue with lower RBO had better cementitious activity.展开更多
