In this paper, the typical spherical sym- metry properties of the numerical schemes are discussed, and an area weighted scheme is extended from a Lagrangian method to an arbitrary Lagrangian and Eulerian (ALE) method. Numerical results are presented to compare three discrete configurations, i.e., the control volume scheme, the area weighted scheme, and the plane scheme with the addition of a geometrical source. The fact that the singularity arises from the geometri- cal source term in the plane scheme is illustrated. A suggestion for choosing the discrete formulation is given when the strong shock wave problems are simulated.展开更多

The governing equations for the combined perturbation growth are derived. The WN solutions for an exponentially convergent cylinder are obtained. It is found that the BP and RTI growths are strongly coupled, which results in the bubble-spike asymmetric structure in the WN stage. The large Atwood number leads to the large deformation of the convergent interface. The amplitude of the spike grows faster than that of the bubble especially for large mode number m and large Atwood number A. The averaged interface radius is small for large mode number perturbation due to the mode-coupling effect.展开更多

In this paper, ...Owing to eccentricity and inclination, circularity of a cylindrical workpiece cannot be measured precisely by a circularity measuring machine when the workpiece has a small dimension(diameter ≤ 3 mm). In this paper, with the aim of solving this problem, circularity metrology of a small cylindrical workpiece using a segmenting scanning method is analyzed. The cross-sectional circle of the cylinder is segmented into several equivalent arcs for measurement by a two-dimensional coordinate measuring machine(profilometer). The circularity contour is obtained by stitching together arc contours obtained by data processing of the coordinates. Different segmenting patterns for coordinate scanning are considered. Measurement results are presented for three segmentation patterns, with 8, 10, and 12 equal segments, respectively.These results are evaluated in terms of the matching coefficient between neighboring arc contours on circumferential stitching, the Euclidean distance between neighboring arc contours on radial stitching, and the curvature of the arcs. From these evaluations, it is found that as the number of segments is increased, the matching coefficient increases from 0.14 to 0.50, the Euclidean distance decreases from 32 nm to 26 nm,and the curvature becomes close to the standard value.展开更多

文摘The Rayleigh–Taylor instability(RTI) in cylindrical geometry is investigated analytically through a second-order weakly nonlinear(WN) theory considering the Bell–Plesset(BP) effect. The governing equations for the combined perturbation growth are derived. The WN solutions for an exponentially convergent cylinder are obtained. It is found that the BP and RTI growths are strongly coupled, which results in the bubble-spike asymmetric structure in the WN stage. The large Atwood number leads to the large deformation of the convergent interface. The amplitude of the spike grows faster than that of the bubble especially for large mode number m and large Atwood number A. The averaged interface radius is small for large mode number perturbation due to the mode-coupling effect.

文摘This study involved a comprehensive investigation aimed at achieving efficient multi-millijoule THz wave generation by exploiting the unique properties of cylindrical GaAs waveguides as effective mediators of the conversion of laser energy into THz waves.Through meticulous investigation,valuable insights into optimizing THz generation processes for practical applications were unearthed.By investigating Hertz potentials,an eigen-value equation for the solutions of the guided modes(i.e.,eigenvalues)was found.The effects of various param-eters,including the effective mode index and the laser pulse power,on the electric field components of THz radia-tion,including the fundamental TE(transverse electric)and TM(transverse magnetic)modes,were evaluated.By analyzing these factors,this research elucidated the nuanced mechanisms governing THz wave generation within cylindrical GaAs waveguides,paving the way for refined methodologies and enhanced efficiency.The sig-nificance of cylindrical GaAs waveguides extends beyond their roles as mere facilitators of THz generation;their design and fabrication hold the key to unlocking the potential for compact and portable THz systems.This trans-formative capability not only amplifies the efficiency of THz generation but also broadens the horizons of practical applications.
文摘Ferrimagnetic materials exhibiting remanence can be used to achieve unidirectional electromagnetic-field propagation in the form of magnetoplasmons(MPs)in the subwavelength regime.This study investigates the MP properties and various guiding modes in a hollow cylindrical waveguide made of materials that exhibit remanence.Pattern analysis and numerical simulations are used to demonstrate that dispersion relationships and electromagnetic-field distribution are strongly affected by the operating frequency and physical dimensions of the structure.In addition,the existence of two different guiding modes is proved,namely regular and surface-wave modes.By adjusting the operating frequency and reducing the diameter of the hollow cylinder,the regular mode can be suppressed so as to only retain the surface-wave mode,which enables unidirectional MP propagation in the cylindrical waveguide.Moreover,the unidirectional surface-wave mode is robust to backscattering due to surface roughness and defects,which makes it very useful for application in field-enhancement devices.
文摘Steel cylindrical shells are widely used in engineering structures due to their high strength-to-weight ratio,but they are vulnerable to buckling under axial loads.To address this limitation,fiber-reinforced polymer(FRP)composites have emerged as promising materials for structural reinforcement.This study investigates the buckling behavior of steel cylindrical shells reinforced with inner and outer layers of polymer composite materials under axial compression.Using analytical and numerical modeling methods,the critical buckling loads for different reinforcement options were evaluated.Two-sided glass fiber reinforced plastic(GFRP)or carbon fiber reinforced plastic(CFRP)coatings,as well as combined coatings with layers of different composites,were considered.GFRP+CFRPIn the calculations,the coatings were treated as homogeneous orthotropic materials with equivalent averaged elastic characteristics.The numerical analysis revealed that CFRP reinforcement achieved the highest increase in buckling load,with improvements ranging from 9.84%to 47.29%,depending on the composite thickness and steel shell thickness.GFRP reinforcement,while beneficial,demonstrated a lower effectiveness,with buckling load increases between 5.89%and 19.30%.The hybrid reinforcement provided an optimal balance,improving buckling resistance by GFRP+CFRP6.94%to 43.95%.Statistical analysis further identified composite type and thickness as the most significant factors affecting buckling performance.The findings suggest that CFRP is the preferred reinforcement material,especially when applied to thin-walled cylindrical shells,while hybrid reinforcements can be effectively utilized for structures requiring a balance between stiffness and ductility.These insights provide a foundation for optimizing FRP reinforcement strategies to enhance the structural integrity of steel shells in engineering applications.

文摘Unlike the post-buckling behaviors of classical piezoelectric cylindrical shell,the size-dependent effect of flexoelectric material and high strain gradient in the post-buckling process play an important role in the stability analysis of the micro/nano cylindrical shells.To reveal the impacts on the post-buckling of flexoelectric cylindrical shells,an accurate post-buckling model for the flexoelectric cylindrical shells under axial compression is proposed based on the higher-order shear deformation shell theory and von Karman geometrical nonlinearity.The size-dependent post-buckling equilibrium path with mode-jumping phenomena is obtained by using Galerkin’s method and Newton-Raphson method.The predicted results are in agreement with those reported in the open literature.A detailed parametric study is also carried out to investigate the influence of geometrical parameters,flexoelectric coefficients,and electric voltage on the size-dependent post-buckling behaviors of flexoelectric cylindrical shells.

文摘Thermal conductivity is an important physical parameter in thermal equipment,in the blast furnace,rotary kiln and other equipment,multi-layer cylindrical wall is extremely important in industrial production of a thermal conductivity model,its thermal conductivity coefficient determines the ability of the cylindrical wall,which results in the existence of a large number of multi-layer cylinder thermal conductivity problems of the pitfalls.This paper focuses on the establishment of a mathematical model of the multi-layer cylinder thermal conductivity problem,by applying different voltages to the multi-layer cylinder wall,study the temperature distribution of the multi-layer cylinder wall under the conditions of natural convection and forced convection,and draw the line graphs under the conditions of natural convection and forced convection by Origin software,and finally conclude that:under the same conditions,the forced convection is significantly stronger than the natural convection;under the conditions of different voltages,the multi-layer cylinder wall under the conditions of steady state convection,the forced convection is much stronger than natural convection.Under different voltage conditions,the temperature of the multilayer cylinder wall under steady state conditions increases with the increase of voltage,which provides a strong support for the related research.

文摘The fixed-setting face-milled curvilinear cylindrical gear features teeth that are arc-shaped along the longitudinal direction.Some researchers hypothesize that this arc-tooth may enhance the lubrication conditions of the gear.This study focuses on this type of gear,employing both finite element analysis(FEA)and analytical methods to determine the input parameters required for elastohydrodynamic lubrication(EHL)analysis.The effects of assembly errors,tooth surface modifications,load,and face-milling cutter radius on the lubrication performance of these gears are systematically investigated.The finite element model(FEM)of the gear pair is utilized to calculate the coordinates of contact points on the tooth surface and the corresponding contact pressures at the tooth surface nodes throughout a meshing cycle.Subsequently,the normal load on specific gear teeth is determined using a gradient-based approach.Entrainment speed,slip-to-roll ratio,and effective radius near the contact points on the tooth surface are derived through analytical methods.The data obtained from FEA serve as input parameters for EHL simulations.The lubrication performance of the curvilinear cylindrical gear is evaluated through example studies.The findings indicate that using FEA to provide input parameters for EHL simulations can reveal the occurrence of edge contact phenomena during gear meshing,allowing for a more accurate representation of the gear’s lubrication conditions.The lubrication performance of the curvilinear cylindrical gear is shown to be independent of the face-milling cutter radius but is significantly influenced by the size of the contact pattern on the tooth surface.Curvilinear gears with larger contact patterns demonstrate superior lubrication performance.

文摘Owing to eccentricity and inclination, circularity of a cylindrical workpiece cannot be measured precisely by a circularity measuring machine when the workpiece has a small dimension(diameter ≤ 3 mm). In this paper, with the aim of solving this problem, circularity metrology of a small cylindrical workpiece using a segmenting scanning method is analyzed. The cross-sectional circle of the cylinder is segmented into several equivalent arcs for measurement by a two-dimensional coordinate measuring machine(profilometer). The circularity contour is obtained by stitching together arc contours obtained by data processing of the coordinates. Different segmenting patterns for coordinate scanning are considered. Measurement results are presented for three segmentation patterns, with 8, 10, and 12 equal segments, respectively.These results are evaluated in terms of the matching coefficient between neighboring arc contours on circumferential stitching, the Euclidean distance between neighboring arc contours on radial stitching, and the curvature of the arcs. From these evaluations, it is found that as the number of segments is increased, the matching coefficient increases from 0.14 to 0.50, the Euclidean distance decreases from 32 nm to 26 nm,and the curvature becomes close to the standard value.

文摘Soft electronics,which are designed to function under mechanical deformation(such as bending,stretching,and folding),have become essential in applications like wearable electronics,artificial skin,and brain-machine interfaces.Crystalline silicon is one of the most mature and reliable materials for high-performance electronics;however,its intrinsic brittleness and rigidity pose challenges for integrating it into soft electronics.Recent research has focused on overcoming these limitations by utilizing structural design techniques to impart flexibility and stretchability to Si-based materials,such as transforming them into thin nanomembranes or nanowires.This review summarizes key strategies in geometry engineering for integrating crystalline silicon into soft electronics,from the use of hard silicon islands to creating out-of-plane foldable silicon nanofilms on flexible substrates,and ultimately to shaping silicon nanowires using vapor-liquid-solid or in-plane solid-liquid-solid techniques.We explore the latest developments in Si-based soft electronic devices,with applications in sensors,nanoprobes,robotics,and brain-machine interfaces.Finally,the paper discusses the current challenges in the field and outlines future research directions to enable the widespread adoption of silicon-based flexible electronics.

文摘Magnesium alloy thin-walled cylindrical components with the advantages of high specific stiffness and strength present broad prospect for the lightweight of aerospace components.However,poor formability resulting from the hexagonal close-packed crystal structure in magnesium alloy puts forwards a great challenge for thin-walled cylindrical components fabrication,especially for extreme structure with the thicknesschanging web and the high thin-wall.In this research,an ZK61 magnesium alloy thin-walled cylindrical component was successfully fabricated by two-step forging,i.e.,the pre-forging and final-forging is mainly used for wed and thin-wall formation,respectively.Microstructure and mechanical properties at the core,middle and margin of the web and the thin-wall of the pre-forged and final-forged components are studied in detail.Due to the large strain-effectiveness and metal flow along the radial direction(RD),the grains of the web are all elongated along RD for the pre-forged component,where an increasingly elongated trend is found from the core to the margin of the wed.A relatively low recrystallized degree occurs during pre-forging,and the web at different positions are all with prismatic and pyramid textures.During finalforging,the microstructures of the web and the thin-wall are almost equiaxed due to the remarkable occurrence of dynamic recrystallization.Similarity,except for few basal texture of the thin-wall,only prismatic and pyramid textures are found for the final-forged component.Compared with the initial billet,an obviously improved mechanical isotropy is achieved during pre-forging,which is well-maintained during final-forging.

文摘Waveform regulator in charge is a method that can realize multi-source detonation wave superposition through a single point detonation.The method does not need to weaken the strength of shell,and relies on the high stress generated by superposition to cut shell into regular fragments.Additionally,it can be combined with different initiation methods to alter the fragmentation outcomes.In this study,aiming at the fracture strain of metal cylindrical shell driven by explosive charge with waveform regulator,theoretical analysis was first adopted to obtain the prediction model of the fracture strain of cylindrical shell with waveform regulator and the model of the axial distribution of the stress concentration factor.On this basis,both theoretical analysis and numerical models were utilized to investigate the effect of waveform regulator on the initial velocity of fragments.Finally,experiments were conducted to validate the fracture strain prediction model for cylindrical shell with waveform regulator.The research results show that the collision angles of the detonation waves at different axial positions are different,which leads to the stress concentration factor on the shell presenting a trend of gradually decreasing,then sharply increasing,and then rapidly decreasing along the axial direction.Additionally,the changes in the slot spacing and the thickness of outer charge will also affect the stress concentration factor,and the influence of outer charge thickness is relatively large.The smaller the ratio of charge volume to waveform regulator volume,the larger the axial sparse wave intensity and the more the fragment initial velocity decrease.From the initiation end to the non-initiation end,the failure modes of the shell sequentially change from pure shear,to mixed tensile-shear,and finally to pure tensile failure.The experimental results are in good agreement with the calculated results of the fracture strain model,and the maximum relative error is less than 10%,which indicates that the fracture strain prediction model of the cylindrical shell with waveform regulator established in this paper by considering the increase of elastic energy per unit volume caused by stress concentration on the shell is reliable.
