The disadvantage i...The conventional traveling beam balance pumping unit in the pumping unit has the following main characteristics in operation: (1) Simple structure;(2) Easy to repair;(3) Good stability in operation. The disadvantage is that the bearing capacity in the operation process depends on the bending action torque to exert the action, which results in more difficulty in matching the loads of the pumping units, and the interaction balance rod of the pumping units is also subjected to strict restriction, which results in greater loss of material and energy in the operation process of the pumping units. Therefore, when the conventional traveling beam balance pumping units are reformed, It is required to start with the two major improvement models, namely, the downward bias barbell improvement model and the double horsehead improvement model. The two major improvement models are characterized by not changing the previous interaction balance model, which in turn results in the fact that the essential contradiction problem of the pumping unit has not been solved. In terms of the improvement of the driving force of the pumping unit, the author, based on the currently prevailing linear motor control equipment, carries out the improvement for the conventional traveling beam balance pumping unit, replacing the previous rotary motor control equipment with the linear motor control equipment to improve the overall efficiency contradiction problem of the old traditional type of pumping unit.展开更多

Circuit faults will inevitably lead to serious losses of availability or impeded mission success without self-repair over the mission duration. Traditional fault-repair methods based on redundant fault-tolerant technique are straightforward to implement, yet their area, power and weight cost can be excessive. Moreover they utilize all plug-in or component level circuits to realize redundant backup, such that their applicability is limited. Hence, a novel selfrepair technology based on evolvable hardware(EHW) and reparation balance technology(RBT) is proposed. Its cost is low, and fault self-repair of various circuits and devices can be realized through dynamic configuration. Making full use of the fault signals, correcting circuit can be found through EHW technique to realize the balance and compensation of the fault output-signals. In this paper, the self-repair model was analyzed which based on EHW and RBT technique, the specific self-repair strategy was studied, the corresponding self-repair circuit fault system was designed, and the typical faults were simulated and analyzed which combined with the actual electronic devices. Simulation results demonstrated that the proposed fault self-repair strategy was feasible. Compared to traditional techniques, fault self-repair based on EHW consumes fewer hardware resources, and the scope of fault self-repair was expanded significantly.展开更多

The prop- erty of the sampling material from the mill was analyzed, applying the float-sink test, size distribution analysis, proximate analysis and so on. It was indicated that the +250 I^m fraction in the pulverized fuel accounted for only 0.02%, while it was 83.2% in the new feed. The circulating ratio and coal flow in the separator and the cone zone were calculated using the mass balance of the circulating load. So, the cir- culating ratio in the separator of the pulverizer was between 8 and 13, and the circulating ratio, the feed flow of separator and cone zone all raised with the increase of the air volume. Furthermore, the parameters of the separation functions were obtained based on the fitting method. It was shown that the mean value of the shape factor B was 0.7617, and the parameter D which is the particle size at 50% cumulative yield in the separator almost kept unchanged.展开更多

Most of the current researches for machining line configuration and balancing problems are related to dedicated transfer lines with dedicated machine workstations. With growing trends towards great product variety and fluctuations in market demand, dedicated transfer lines are being replaced with flexible machining line composed of identical CNC machines. This paper deals with the line configuration and balancing problem for flexible machining lines. The objective is to assign operations to workstations and find the sequence of execution, specify the number of machines in each workstation while minimizing the line cycle time and total number of machines. This problem is subject to precedence, clustering, accessibility and capacity constraints among the features, operations, setups and workstations. The mathematical model and heuristic algorithm based on feature group strategy and polychromatic sets theory are presented to find an optimal solution. The feature group strategy and polychromatic sets theory are used to establish constraint model. A heuristic operations sequencing and assignment algorithm is given. An industrial case study is carried out, and multiple optimal solutions in different line configurations are obtained. The case studying results show that the solutions with shorter cycle time and higher line balancing rate demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. This research proposes a heuristic line configuration and balancing algorithm based on feature group strategy and polychromatic sets theory which is able to provide better solutions while achieving an improvement in computing time.展开更多

In spite of these new technologies, the expense of manufacturing makes it infeasible to supply all the possible variants to the market for some industries. Therefore, the determination of the right number of product variantsto offer in the product portfolios becomes an important consideration. The product portfolio planning problem had been independently well studied from marketing and engineering perspectives. However, advantages can be gained from using a concurrent marketing and engineering approach. Concurrent product development strategies specifically for reconfigurable products and manufacturing systems can allow manufacturers to select best product portfolios from marketing, product design and manufacturing perspectives. A methodology for the concurrent design of a product portfolio and assembly system is presented. The objective of the concurrent product portfolio planning and assembly system design problem is to obtain the product variants that will make up the product portfolio such that oversupply of optional modules is minimized and the assembly line efficiency is maximized. Explicit design of the assembly system is obtained during the solution of the problem. It is assumed that the demand for optional modules and the assembly times for these modules are known a priori. A genetic algorithm is used in the solution of the problem. The basic premise of this methodology is that the selected product portfolio has a significant impact on the solution of the assembly line balancing problem. An example is used to validate this hypothesis. The example is then further developed to demonstrate how the methodology can be used to obtain the optimal product portfolio. This approach is intended for use by manufacturers during the early design stages of product family design.展开更多

文摘Circularly polarized light(CPL)detectors based on chiral organic materials or inorganic structures hold great potential for highly integrated on-chip applications;however,these devices usually have to seek an optimal balance among the asymmetry factor(g),responsivity(R),and stability.Here,we aim to break such a limitation by combining chiral inorganic plasmonic metamaterials with electrical gain,by which one can enhance both g and R while simultaneously securing the stability.We demonstrate a CPL detector based on"S"-shaped chiral Ag nanowires/InAs/Si heterostructures,where the meticulous construction of the"S"-shaped chiral Ag nanowires with the overlaying InAs channel enables a substantial absorption asymmetry in InAs due to differentiated localized surface plasmon resonances excited by left-and right-circularly polarized(LCP and RCP)light.The InAs serves as a conductive channel,achieving significant electrical gain through photoconductive effects assisted by photogating,gate modulation,and trap effects.The proposed inorganic stable device exhibits a high electrical g of~1.56,an ultra-high R of~33,900 A W^(-1),a large specific detectivity of~1.8×10^(11) Jones,and an ultra-short response time of~23 ns,with the high performance achieved in a broad spectral range from 2μm to 2.8μm.Ultimately,by encoding ASCII code 1 and 0 onto LCP and RCP light,respectively,and leveraging the device's heightened discrimination and response performance to these polarizations,we demonstrate a simple yet key-free optical encryption communication scheme at the device level,highlighting its extensive potential for system-level applications.
