It is unsuitable to analyze different vibrations of propulsive shafting systems with development of shipbuilding technologies. To overcome the shortages of traditional marine standards, we establish a new numerical model of the shafting coupled vibration. And we put forward shafting coupled vibration calculation to ensure better reliability of main propulsion system. The shafting system is modeled into two sub-systems, a continuous one and a discrete one. Wave approach and transit matrix method are used to investigate displacement and stress fields in continuous and discrete sub-systems, respectively. And vibrations of different modes in both sub-systems are coupled by using dynamic equilibrium and continuity condition to deduce the global equations governing the motion of shafting. The coupling calculation is then used to research the reason of a very large crude carrier(VLCC) stern hull vibration. It is shown by the comparison of the results from both coupling and dependent vibration calculations that vibration in deferent directions will cause deformation in the same mode, which leads to extra stress and displacements on shafting, especially as the resonant frequencies of different vibration modes match each other. This is helpful to prevent ship stern vibration due to poor shafting vibration calculation.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Humeral shaft fractures are common and vary by age,with high-energy trauma observed in younger adults and low-impact injuries in older adults.Radial nerve palsy is a frequent complication.Treatment ranges from nonoperative methods to surgical interventions such as intramedullary K-wires,which promote faster rehabilitation and improved elbow mobility.AIM To evaluate the outcomes of managing humeral shaft fractures using closed reduction and internal fixation with flexible intramedullary K-wires.METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study analyzing the medical records of patients with humeral shaft fractures managed with flexible intramedullary K-wires at King Abdulaziz Medical City,using non-random sampling and descriptive analysis for outcome evaluation.RESULTS This study assessed the clinical outcomes of 20 patients treated for humeral shaft fractures with intramedullary K-wires.Patients were predominantly male(n=16,80%),had an average age of 39.2 years,and a mean body mass index of 29.5 kg/m^(2).The fractures most frequently occurred in the middle third of the humerus(n=14,70%),with oblique fractures being the most common type(n=7,35%).All surgeries used general anesthesia and a posterior approach,with no intraoperative complications reported.Postoperatively,all patients achieved clinical and radiological union(n=20,100%),and the majority(n=13,65%)reached an elbow range of motion from 0 to 150 degrees.CONCLUSION These results suggest that intramedullary K-wire fixation may be an effective option for treating humeral shaft fractures,with favorable outcomes in range of motion recovery,fracture union,and a low rate of intraoperative complications.

文摘Dendritic spines are small protrusions along dendrites that contain most of the excitatory synapses in principal neurons,playing a crucial role in neuronal function by creating a compartmentalized environment for signal transduction.The plasticity of spine morphologies provides a tunable handle to regulate calcium signal dynamics,allowing rapid regulation of protein expression necessary to establish and maintain synapses(Cornejo et al.,2022).If excitatory inputs were to be located primarily on dendritic shafts,dendrites would frequently short-circuit,preventing voltage signals from propagating(Cornejo et al.,2022).It is thus not surprising that the structural plasticity of dendritic spines is closely linked to synaptic plasticity and memory formation(Berry and Nedivi,2017).While comprehensive in vitro studies have been conducted,in vivo studies that directly tackle the mechanism of dendritic transport and translation in regulating spine plasticity spatiotemporally are limited.

文摘To enhance the operational capacity and space utilization of baffle-drop shafts,this study improved the traditional baffle-drop shaft by expanding the wet-side space,incorporating large rotation-angle baffles,and installing overflow holes in the dividing wall.A three-dimensional turbulent model was developed using ANSYS Fluent to simulate the hydraulic characteristics of both traditional and new baffle-drop shafts across various flow rates.The simulation results demonstrated that the new shaft design allowed for discharge from both the wet and dry sides,significantly improving operational capacity,with the dry side capable of handling 40%of the inlet flow.Compared to the traditional shaft,the new design reduced shaft wall pressures and decreased the mean and standard deviation of pressure on typical baffles by 21%and 63%,respectively,therefore enhancing structural safety.Additionally,the new shaft achieved a 2%-12%higher energy dissipation rate than the traditional shaft across different flow rates.This study offers valuable insights for the design and optimization of drop shafts in deep tunnel drainage systems.

文摘The iron and steel industry,standing as a quintessential manufacture example with high consumption,pollution and emissions,faces significant environmental and sustainable development challenges.Electric arc furnace(EAF)steelmaking process mainly uses scrap as raw material and is characterized by environmentally friendly and recyclable process.However,the further development of EAF route in China is limited by the reserve,supply,availability and quality of scrap resource.Direct reduced iron(DRI)is one of typical low-carbon and clean charges,which can effectively make up for the adverse effects caused by the lack of scrap.The physical and chemical properties,classifications,and production technologies of DRI are firstly reviewed.In particular,the reducing gas types,reduction temperature,and reduction mechanism of the DRI production with gas-based shaft furnace(SF)technology are detailed.Considering the crucial role played by DRI application in EAF,the influences of DRI addition on EAF smelting rules and operations including the blending and charging process,heat transfer and melting in molten bath,slag formation operation,refractory corrosion,and slag system evolution are then further discussed.Finally,the comparative analysis and assessment of the consumption level of material and energy as well as the cleaner production both covering the clean chemical composition of molten steel and the clean environment impact in EAF steelmaking with DRI charged are conducted.From perspectives of metallurgical process engineering,a suitable route of hydrogen generation and application(from coke oven gas,methanol,and clean energy power),CO_(2) capture and utilization integrated with SF–EAF process is proposed.In view of the difficulties in large-scale DRI application in EAF,the follow-up work should focus on the investigation of DRI charging and melting,slag system evolution and molten pool reaction rules,as well as the developments of the DRI standardized use technology and intelligent batching and control models.

文摘The ballistic impact identification method for the helicopter Tail Drive Shaft System(TDSS)isn't yet comprehensive,which affects helicopter flight safety.This paper proposes a ballistic impact identification method for the TDSS based on vibration response analysis.Based on the Johnson-Cook constitutive model and failure criteria,the ballistic impact finite element simulation model is established,which is verified by the ballistic impact experiment of the Tail Drive Shaft(TDS).Considering the ballistic impact excitation force,the dynamic model of the TDSS with ballistic impact is established,which is verified by finite element commercial software.If a bullet hits the TDS,the bending vibration displacement increases sharply at a certain moment and then significantly increases but remains stable.Meanwhile,the critical speed component appears in the frequency-domain response of bending vibration,and then the speed component significantly increases but remains stable.What's more,the axis trajectory exhibits a sudden,large-scale,and irregular whirling motion at a certain moment,followed by a significant increase but remains stable.Furthermore,if the axial vibration response is small,the bullet core shooting should be considered vertically or at a small incident angle,otherwise,it should be considered at a large incident angle.

文摘To advance green ironmaking and expand the utilization of magnetite with complex gangues,the hydrogen reduction behavior and mechanisms of barite-containing magnetite pellets were investigated.The findings revealed that increasing barite led to the increased amount of Ba_(x)Fe_(3−x)O_(4)and Ba-containing silicates in oxidized pellets,which hindered the continuous crystallization of Fe_(2)O_(3).During the reduction process,the reduction of Ba_(x)Fe_(3−x)O_(4)to Ba and Fe by H_(2)was challenging,resulting in the formation of BaFeO_(2.64).Furthermore,Ba_(x)Fe_(3−x)O_(4)impeded the reaction between Fe_(2)O_(3)and H_(2),decreasing the reduction degree and metallization ratio of the pellets.Ba^(2+)diffused into the Fe_(2)O_(3)lattice during oxidation,stabilizing the crystal structure during the initial reduction stage(Fe_(2)O_(3)to Fe_(3)O_(4)).In the third reduction stage(Fe_(x)O to Fe),BaFeO_(2.64)inhibited the rapid precipitation of metallic iron,thus preventing the abnormal growth of iron whiskers.Consequently,BaSO_(4)reduced the reduction swelling index of barite-containing magnetite pellets in hydrogen.These findings offer a theoretical basis for the future implementation of barite-containing pellets in the hydrogen-based shaft furnace direct reduction process.

文摘To address the increasing demand for corrosion-resistant shaft components,a bi-metallic composite shaft comprising carbon steel,which is known for its high thermal strength,and stainless cladding,which offers excellent corrosion resistance,was introduced.A novel method for manufacturing these composite shaft parts using cross-wedge rolling(CWR)was proposed and explored.Thermal simulation experiments,CWR forming trials and finite element analysis were conducted to examine the coordinated deformation during the CWR process.The results revealed a downhill diffusion pattern of elements from higher to lower-concentration areas,forming a smooth and uniform concentration gradient.When the cladding thickness(CT)ranged from 3 to 4 mm,the trajectories of the points on both the cladding material and the substrate coincided,indicating strong bonding at the transitional interface of the composite shaft.Conversely,with a CT of 5 mm,coordinated deformation between the substrate and cladding material was not achieved.Shear strength tests demonstrated a gradual decrease in strength with increasing CT.The microscopic morphology of the interface showed that the metal grains near both sides of the interface were refined,and the binding interface displayed a slightly curved shape.A viable method was provided for producing high-performance corrosion-resistant composite shaft components using CWR technology.

文摘The self-reforming of coke oven gas(COG)in a gas-based shaft furnace was investigated,employing metallized iron as a catalyst.Thermodynamic analyses,supported by FactSage 8.3 calculations and regression modeling,were used to investigate the effects of temperature(700–1100℃),CO_(2)(3%–10%),and H_(2)O(1%–9%)concentrations on CH_(4) conversion efficiency.Results indicate that CH_(4) conversion exceeds 90%at temperatures above 1000℃,with CO_(2) and H_(2)O concentrations at 9%and 5%,respectively.During the reforming process,introducing CO_(2) provides additional oxygen,facilitating the oxidation of CH_(4),while H_(2)O enhances H_(2) production through the steam reforming pathway.Experimental findings reveal a CH_(4) conversion of 85.83%with a H_(2)/CO ratio of 5.44 at 1050℃.In addition,an optimal H_(2)O concentration of 6%yields the highest CH_(4) conversion of 84.24%,while CO_(2) exhibits minimal effects on promoting the reforming process.Increasing the metallization rate of pellets from 43%to 92%significantly enhances CH_(4) reforming.This is mainly due to the fact that metallized iron is vital in promoting CH_(4) dissociation and improving syngas yield by providing active sites for the redox cycle of CO_(2) and H_(2)O.

文摘The hydrogen-enriched direct reduction shaft furnace addresses the high CO_(2) emissions associated with the blast furnace process.A discrete element method(DEM)model was introduced to explore how the structure of the diversion cone affects particle descent behavior in a hydrogen-enriched shaft furnace.The results indicated that in the absence of a diversion cone,the descending velocity near the furnace wall zone is significantly lower than that at its center,resulting in a‘V’-shaped burden flow pattern.The discharge velocity has a minor impact on the flow pattern in the shaft furnace.Upon installation of a diversion cone,burden descending velocity becomes more uniform,leading to a‘-’-shaped burden flow pattern.As the bottom of the diversion cone ascends(i.e.,the lower end of the diversion cone is progressively closer to the top),there is an increase in the volume fraction of the dead zone within the shaft furnace.This is particularly evident in the formation of a triangular dead zone at the base of the diversion cone.It is suggested that the lower cone of the bi-conical diversion cone should maintain a sufficient height.

文摘The safety of the initial support during the construction of inclined shafts in tunnels traversing through high-hydraulic-pressure surrounding rocks is paramount.This study examines a high-hydraulic-pressure inclined shaft of a tunnel in Western Sichuan Province to analyze the damage characteristics of the initial support and propose a radial drainage and decompression treatment method.Field monitoring was conducted to assess the load and deformation of the initial support structure,and on-site investigations identified the distribution of cracked areas.In addition,numerical simulations were performed to evaluate the force and deformation characteristics of the initial support structure,which were then compared with field observations for validation.The variations in the lateral pressure coefficient and water pressure were evaluated.The results revealed that damage was primarily concentrated in the shoulder,spring line,and knee areas,with the bending moment at the knee increasing by up to 66.9%.The application of the radial drainage and decompression treatment method effectively reduced water pressure loads on the initial support.Post-treatment analysis indicated significant reductions in axial force and bending moment,enhancing structural stability.These findings provide valuable insights for improving the safety and durability of initial support systems in inclined shafts of high-hydraulicpressure railroad tunnels.
