Focusing on the unstable motion of space manipulator due to the above impact effect, a robust adaptive compound control algorithm is designed to suppress the above unstable motion. There is no need to control the free-floating base position to save the jet fuel. Finally, the simulation is proposed to show the impact effect and verify the validity of the control algorithm.展开更多

By using a partition method, the system is divided into two parts, the local impact region and the region away from the impact. The two parts are connected by specific boundary conditions, and the system after partition is equivalent to the original system. According to the rigid-flexible coupling dynamic theory of multibody system, system's rigid-flexible coupling dynamic equations without impact are derived. A local impulse method for establishing the initial impact conditions is proposed. It satisfies the compatibility con- ditions for contact constraints and the actual physical situation of the impact process of flexible bodies. Based on the contact constraint method, system's impact dynamic equa- tions are derived in a differential-algebraic form. The contact/separation criterion and the algorithm are given. An impact dynamic simulation is given. The results show that system's dynamic behaviors including the energy, the deformations, the displacements, and the impact force during the impact process change dramatically. The impact makes great effects on the global dynamics of the system during and after impact.展开更多

Considering factors such as the distribution of tidal stream energy, bathymetry, topography, and the design parameters of the turbines, an appropriate location for a demonstration tidal turbine was selected and the corresponding energy resource was evaluated. Several sites with strong tidal streams were considered: south of the northern cape, east of the southem cape, and the southern end of Haitan Bay. The former was thought most suitable for the deployment of a tidal energy turbine, with projected power generation for approximately 470 h per month. The average power of this demonstration was about 2.4 kW, and the annual electricity output was approximately 17.47 MWh. The intervention of the turbine device had little influence on the near-field tidal stream or water level. The tidal stream was reduced slightly in the area south of the northern cape, although the effect weakened further from the turbine. Conversely, the velocity increased slightly on both sides of the demonstration site. The difference in current speed with and without the turbine was greater at slack tide than still tide. The influence of turbine operation on water level was minor. The method adopted in this study can be considered a reference for the selection of sites for the demonstration of tidal stream energy. However, the method is unable describe the dynamic characteristics of the turbulent flow surrounding the deployed turbines, which has an important role regarding the optimal designs of the turbine blade and pile foundations. Therefore, we will continue to work to improve this model in future research.展开更多

How to model the contact/impact process accurately and efficiently is one of the main difficulties in many engineering applications. The numerical approaches being used widely in impact analysis are mainly from two fields: multibody system dynamics (MBS) and computational solid mechanics (CSM). Approaches based on MBS provide a more efficient yet less accurate analysis of the contact/impact problems, while approaches based on CSM are well suited for particularly high accuracy needs, yet require very high computational effort. To bridge the gap between accuracy and efficiency in the dynamic simulation of a flexible multibody system with contacts/impacts, a partition method is presented considering that the contact body is divided into two parts, an impact region and a non-impact region. The impact region is modeled using the finite element method to guarantee the local accuracy, while the non-impact region is modeled using the modal reduction approach to raise the global efficiency. A three-dimensional rod-plate impact experiment is designed and performed to validate the numerical results. The principle for how to partition the contact bodies is proposed: the maximum radius of the impact region can be estimated by an analytical method, and the modal truncation orders of the non-impact region can be estimated by the highest frequency of the signal measured. The simulation results using the presented method are in good agreement with the experimental results. It shows that this method is an effec-rive formulation considering both accuracy and efficiency. Moreover, a more complicated multibody impact problem of a crank slider mechanism is investigated to strengthen this conclusion.展开更多

First, the floating frame of reference approach and nodal coordinates on the basis of finite element formulation are used to describe the kinematics of planar deformable bodies. According to the kinematic description of contact conditions, the contact constraint equations of planar flexible bodies are derived. Based on the varying topology technique the impact dynamic equations for a planar multibody system are established. Then the initial conditions of the equations in each contact stage are determined according to the discontinuity theory in continuum mechanics. The experiments between the aluminum rods are performed to check the correctness of the proposed method. Through the comparison between the numerical and experimental results the proposed method is validated. Experimental results also show that the impulse momentum method cannot accurately predict the complex impact dynamic phenomena and the continuous model may lead to a serious error when used to simulate the impact problems with significant wave propagation effects.展开更多

In this paper, we show that firms' technological impact patterns cannot be captured by the state-of-the-art dynamical models for the evolution of scientists' research impact, such as the Q model. Therefore, we propose a time-varying returns model which integrates the empiricallyobserved relation between patent order and technological impact into the Q model. The proposed model can reproduce the timing pattern of firms' highest-impact patents accurately. Our results shed light on modeling the differences behind the impact dynamics of researchers and firms.展开更多

Obtaining its dynamic response is a challenging task and usually achieved by numerical methods. The objectives of the study are twofold. Firstly, the discrete singular convolution (DSC) is used for the first time to analyze the impact dynamics. Secondly, the efficiency of various numerical methods for dynamic analysis is explored via an example of a flexible rod hit by a rigid ball. Three numerical methods, including the conventional finite element (FE) method, the DSC algorithm, and the spectral finite element (SFE) method, and one proposed modeling strategy, the improved spectral finite element (ISFE) method, are involved. Numerical results are compared with the known analytical solutions to show their efficiency. It is demonstrated that the proposed ISFE modeling strategy with a proper length of con- ventional FE yields the most accurate contact stress among the four investigated models. It is also found that the DSC algorithm is an alternative method for collision problems.展开更多

The impact factors of dynamic tire loads, including the dynamic load stress factors, and the maximal and the minimal vertical dynamic load factors, are used to evaluate the dynamic interaction between heavy vehicles and roads under the condition of random road surface roughness. Matlab/Simulink is used to simulate the nonlinear dynamic system and calculate the impact factors. The effects of different road surface conditions on the safety of vehicle movement and the durability of parts of a vehicle are analyzed, as well as the effects of different structural parameters and different vehicle speeds on road surfaces. The study results provide both the warning limits of road surface roughness and the limits of corresponding dynamic parameters for the 5-axle heavy truck.展开更多

文摘Recent studies in complexity science have uncovered temporal regularities in the dynamics of impact along scientific and other creative careers, but they did not extend the obtained insights to firms. In this paper, we show that firms' technological impact patterns cannot be captured by the state-of-the-art dynamical models for the evolution of scientists' research impact, such as the Q model. Therefore, we propose a time-varying returns model which integrates the empiricallyobserved relation between patent order and technological impact into the Q model. The proposed model can reproduce the timing pattern of firms' highest-impact patents accurately. Our results shed light on modeling the differences behind the impact dynamics of researchers and firms.

文摘As coal mining depth increases,the combined effects of high stress,mining stress,and fault structures make dynamic impact hazards more frequent.The reproduction of dynamic impact phenomena is basis for studying their occurrence patterns and control mechanisms.Physical simulation test represents an efficacious methodology.However,there is currently a lack of simulation devices that can effectively simulate two types of dynamic impact phenomena,including high stress and fault slip dynamic impact.To solve aforementioned issues,the physical simulation test system for dynamic impact in deep roadways developed by authors is employed to carry out comparative tests of high stress and fault slip dynamic impact.The phenomena of high stress and fault slip dynamic impact are reproduced successfully.A comparative analysis is conducted on dynamic phenomena,stress evolution,roadway deformation,and support force.The high stress dynamic impact roadway instability mode,which is characterized by the release of high energy accompanied by symmetric damage,and the fault slip dynamic impact roadway instability mode,which is characterized by the propagation of unilateral stress waves accompanied by asymmetric damage,are clarified.On the basis,the differentiated control concepts for different types of dynamic impact in deep roadways are proposed.

文摘The advancement of rail transportation necessitates energy absorption structures that not only ensure safety but also optimize space utilization,a critical yet often overlooked aspect in existing designs.This study presents a compact energy absorption structure(CE)that integrates the advantages of cutting rings and thin-walled tube modules,offering a solution with the high space utilization and the superior crashworthiness.Through theoretical modeling and experimental validation using a drop-weight test system,we analyzed the dynamic response and energy absorption characteristics of the CE.Comparative analysis with existing structures,namely the cutting shear rings(CSR)energy absorption structure and thin-walled tube structure(TW),revealed that the CE significantly improves specific energy absorption(SEA)by 102.76%and 61.54%,respectively,and optimizes crush force efficiency(CFE)by increasing 8.23%and 5.49%compared to CSR and TW.The innovative design of the CE,featuring deformation gradient and delay response strategies,showcases its potential for practical application in engineering,advancing the field of crashworthiness engineering.

文摘Percussion drilling technology can be used to increase the rate of penetration in deep shale reservoirs,but the interaction mechanism among impact loads,drilling teeth and rock has not been sufficiently investigated.For this reason,shales with different bedding angles are used to carry out impact compression and tensile experiments as well as the rock-breaking experiments by single axe-shaped tooth,the variation of dynamic strengths,rock failure characteristics,fractal dimensions,and tensile/compression ratios under different load-bedding angles(α)are investigated.Then,the three-dimensional scanning device is used to measure the penetration depth and rock-breaking volume under different load-bedding angles.The results show that with the increase of load-bedding angle(0°-90°),the compressive strength decreases and then increases,with the lowest strength atα=45°and the highest strength atα=0°;the tensile strength decreases and then increases,with the lowest strength nearα=30°and the highest strength atα=90°.With the growing impact rate,the effect of load-bedding angle on dynamic compressive strength decreases,and the effect on dynamic tensile strength becomes more significant.When the impact velocity is high(≥8.0 m/s),the tensile-compressive ratio first decreases and then increases,and both reach a minimum at a load-bedding angle of 30°and a maximum at 60°.With the increasing of the load-bedding angle,the depth of tooth penetration increases and then decreases,and the highest depth of tooth penetration and the highest energy absorption efficiency are achieved atα=45°;the width of the impact pit increases and then decreases,and the maximum width value is achieved atα=30°,with the smallest value of the specific work value of the rock-breaking.The results have significant reference value for improving the rock-breaking efficiency of percussion drilling in deep anisotropic formations.

文摘To reveal the deterioration mechanism of coal-rock assemblages under chemical corrosion and dynamic loading,chemical corrosion and dynamic impact experiments were conducted.Under different chemical corrosion conditions,the weakening characteristics,observable characteristics,softening characteristics of the dynamic parameters,dynamic failure characteristics,dynamic failure forms and dynamic microscopic characteristics were analyzed.Under each corrosion condition,the dynamic elastic modulus,dynamic deformation modulus and dynamic peak intensity tended to decrease with immersing time.The dynamic elastic modulus,dynamic deformation modulus and dynamic peak intensity exhibited an inverted U-shaped trend.Under dynamic impact,the failure process of acidly corroded samples can be divided into the following stages:the initial stage,elastic energy accumulation stage,local failure of coal and secondary rock crack expansion stage,coal fragment ejection stage,rock spalling stage and complete instability stage.Under dynamic impact,failure modes exist:coal crushing failure,rock fragmenting failure,rock splitting failure and full splitting failure.After impact failure,sample fragments are distributed in powder,granular,cone and block forms.Based on Zhu-Wang-Tang nonlinear viscoelastic properties,a model considering chemical corrosion and impact damage was proposed.The combined effects of chemical and impact-induced damage on the dynamic mechanical properties of coal-rock assemblages were systematically analyzed.

文摘Inspired by the thermal stability mechanism of thermophilic protein,which presents ionic bonds that have better stability at higher temperatures,this paper proposes the introduction of electrostatic interactions by adding carboxyl-modified silica(C-SiO2),PAA,and CaCl_(2) to achieve higher viscosity over 25℃.The rheological behavior of C-SiO_(2)-based shear thickening fluid(CS-STF)was investigated at a temperature range of 25–55℃.Unlike SiO_(2)-based STF,which exhibits single-step thickening and a negative correlation between viscosity and temperature.As the C-SiO_(2) content was 41%(w/w)and the mass ratio of PAA:CaCl_(2):C-SiO_(2) was 3:1:10,the CS-STF displayed a double-thickening behavior,and the peak viscosity reached 1330 Pa·s at 35℃.From the yarn pull-out test,the inter-yarn force was significantly increased with the increasing CS-STF content.Treating UHMWPE fabrics with CS-STF improved the impact resistance effectively.In the blunt impact test,the U-CS fabrics with high CS-STF content(121.45 wt%)experienced penetration failure under high impact energy(18 J)due to stress concentration caused by the shear thickening behavior.The knife stabbing test demonstrated that U-CS fabrics with appropriate content(88.38 wt%)have the best stabbing resistance in various impact energies.Overall,this study proposed a high-performence STF showing double-thickening and enhancing shear-thickening behavior at a wide temperature range,the composite fabrics with the performance of resisting both the blunt and stab impact had broad application prospects in the field of personal protection.

文摘The fatigue fracture under cyclic dynamic direct tensions of brittle rock is an important mechanical characteristic index for the evaluation of geological disasters and underground engineering safety.However,most studies focus on macroscopic fracture mechanical properties,and the mechanism linking the macroscopic fracture with the microcrack growth during the cyclic dynamic direct tensile loading of brittle rocks is rarely studied.In this paper,a micro-macro fracture model explaining the stress-strain constitutive relationship is established at the last impact failure after being subjected to multiple cyclic direct tensile impacts of brittle rocks.This model is based on the wing crack extension model under direct tensile loading,the quasi-static and dynamic fracture toughness relationship,the suggested crack rate and strain rate relationship,the relationship of damage and dynamic tensile fatigue life N,the relationship of dynamic fracture toughness and dynamic tensile fatigue life N.The variations of dynamic mechanical properties of rocks with dynamic tensile fatigue life for different initial crack sizes and angles within the rocks are further discussed.The compressive strength,elastic modulus,crack initiation stress,limit crack extension length and crack extension rate descend and the failure strain ascends with an increment of dynamic tensile fatigue life in rocks.This study's results provide help for the safety and stability of the underground surrounding rocks under blasting working or seismic disasters.

文摘The influence of FT(freeze-thaw)cycles and average strain rate on the dynamic impact performance,energy evolution characteristics,and failure behavior of sandstone was studied through dynamic impact tests.Results displayed that the FT damage process of samples can be divided into three stages based on the changes in weight,porosity,and P-wave velocity.The dynamic peak strength,dynamic elastic modulus,and strength ratio decreased with increasing FT cycles,and increased with increasing average strain rate.Moreover,the average strain rate reduced the influence of FT cycles on dynamic peak strength.In general,the incident energy,reflected energy and dissipated energy increased with increasing average strain rate,the transmitted energy was negligibly affected by the average strain rate,and the energy dissipation ratio decreased with increasing average strain rate.In addition,the influence of FT cycles on each type of energy and energy dissipation ratio during sample failure was smaller than that of average strain rate.The average size of fragments can accurately demonstrate the impact of FT damage and average strain rate on dynamic peak strength and failure mode,and quantitatively evaluate the sample’s fragmentation degree.Fractal dimension varies with FT cycles and average strain rate,and the threshold is between 148.30 and 242.57 s^(-1).If the average strain rate is in the threshold range,the relationship between the fractal dimension and dynamic peak strength is more regular,otherwise,it will become complicated.The results reveal the dynamic failure mechanism of white sandstone samples,providing assistance for dynamic rock-breaking and disaster prevention in cold regions.

文摘Impact dynamics of flexible solids is important in engineering practice. Obtaining its dynamic response is a challenging task and usually achieved by numerical methods. The objectives of the study are twofold. Firstly, the discrete singular convolution (DSC) is used for the first time to analyze the impact dynamics. Secondly, the efficiency of various numerical methods for dynamic analysis is explored via an example of a flexible rod hit by a rigid ball. Three numerical methods, including the conventional finite element (FE) method, the DSC algorithm, and the spectral finite element (SFE) method, and one proposed modeling strategy, the improved spectral finite element (ISFE) method, are involved. Numerical results are compared with the known analytical solutions to show their efficiency. It is demonstrated that the proposed ISFE modeling strategy with a proper length of con- ventional FE yields the most accurate contact stress among the four investigated models. It is also found that the DSC algorithm is an alternative method for collision problems.
文摘Aim To study the influence of restraint system performance upon the occupant's response during impact, and provide a scientific base for occupant restraint system design. Methods \ In the light of basic theory of multibody system dynamics and impact dynamics on the basis of classical theory of impact, R W method is adopted to construct the vehicle occupant system model consisting of fourteen rigid bodies, thirty seven DOFs and slip joints for the simulation. A software named SVC3D(3 dimensional simulation of vehicle crash) is developed in the FORTRAN language. Results\ The results of simulation have a good coincidence with those of tests and the restraint system with low elongation webbing and equipped with pretensioner provides better restraint effect for the occupant. Conclusion\ The model of vehicle occupant multibody system and SVC3D are suitable for use. Occupant should be belted with low elongation webbing to a certain degree and occupant restraint system should be equipped with pretensioner.

文摘Based on the analysis of nonlinear geometric characteristics of the suspension systems and tires, a 3D nonlinear dynamic model of a typical heavy truck is established. The impact factors of dynamic tire loads, including the dynamic load stress factors, and the maximal and the minimal vertical dynamic load factors, are used to evaluate the dynamic interaction between heavy vehicles and roads under the condition of random road surface roughness. Matlab/Simulink is used to simulate the nonlinear dynamic system and calculate the impact factors. The effects of different road surface conditions on the safety of vehicle movement and the durability of parts of a vehicle are analyzed, as well as the effects of different structural parameters and different vehicle speeds on road surfaces. The study results provide both the warning limits of road surface roughness and the limits of corresponding dynamic parameters for the 5-axle heavy truck.
