Analytical and finite element analysis (FEA) are used to determine the con- strained optimum dimensions of a motor used to drive a rim driven thruster in which the motor rotor is fit- ted onto the rim of the propeller and the stator is encapsulated in the thin Kort nozzle of the thruster. The paper describes the fabrication of a demonstrator motor and presents experimental results to validate the theoretical calculations. Experimental motor performance results are also reported and compared with those of a slotted motor that fits within the same active radial dimensions as the slotless motor. The slotless motor, which has longer active length and endwindings, and thicker magnets than the slotted motor, was found to be less efficient and more expensive (prototype cost) than the slotted machine.展开更多

After sintering at 1 300 ℃ in nitrogen atmosphere, the effect of ZrO2 concentration on sintering behavior, electric conductivity as well as bending strength of the carbon laminations was investigated in detail. The results showed that the volumetric shrinkage rate of the carbon laminations decreased from 38.2% to 30.9% when the ZrO2 concentration in raw materials varied from 0 to 16 wt%. Compared with undoped carbon lamination, the samples had high-electric conductivity and excellent bending strength in all cases. The electric conductivity achieved the maximum value of 225 S/cm, and the bending strength of the carbon lamination was 119.24 MPa for a concentration of 8 wt% ZrO2 in raw materials. In addition, the electric conductivity and bending strength reducing were observed when the ZrO2 concentration was higher than 8 wt%. The catalytic effect on graphitization for the carbon laminations was the most effective when the ZrO2 concentration was set at 8 wt% in raw materials.展开更多

Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of composite additive manufacturing technology, the design optimization of variable stiffness of fiber-reinforced composite laminates has attracted widespread attention from scholars and industry. In these aerospace composite structures, numerous cutout panels and shells serve as access points for maintaining electrical, fuel, and hydraulic systems. The traditional fiber-reinforced composite laminate subtractive drilling manufacturing inevitably faces the problems of interlayer delamination, fiber fracture, and burr of the laminate. Continuous fiber additive manufacturing technology offers the potential for integrated design optimization and manufacturing with high structural performance. Considering the integration of design and manufacturability in continuous fiber additive manufacturing, the paper proposes linear and nonlinear filtering strategies based on the Normal Distribution Fiber Optimization (NDFO) material interpolation scheme to overcome the challenge of discrete fiber optimization results, which are difficult to apply directly to continuous fiber additive manufacturing. With minimizing structural compliance as the objective function, the proposed approach provides a strategy to achieve continuity of discrete fiber paths in the variable stiffness design optimization of composite laminates with regular and irregular holes. In the variable stiffness design optimization model, the number of candidate fiber laying angles in the NDFO material interpolation scheme is considered as design variable. The sensitivity information of structural compliance with respect to the number of candidate fiber laying angles is obtained using the analytical sensitivity analysis method. Based on the proposed variable stiffness design optimization method for complex perforated composite laminates, the numerical examples consider the variable stiffness design optimization of typical non-perforated and perforated composite laminates with circular, square, and irregular holes, and systematically discuss the number of candidate discrete fiber laying angles, discrete fiber continuous filtering strategies, and filter radius on structural compliance, continuity, and manufacturability. The optimized discrete fiber angles of variable stiffness laminates are converted into continuous fiber laying paths using a streamlined process for continuous fiber additive manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimized non-perforated and perforated MBB beams after discrete fiber continuous treatment, are manufactured using continuous fiber co-extrusion additive manufacturing technology to verify the effectiveness of the variable stiffness fiber optimization framework proposed in this paper.展开更多

This equivalence relation was described by Douady(1984) and, separately, by Thurston(1985) who used quadratic invariant geolaminations as a major tool. We showed earlier that the combinatorial Mandelbrot set can be interpreted as a quotient of the space of all limit quadratic invariant geolaminations with the Hausdorff distance topology. In this paper, we describe two similar quotients. In the first case, the identifications are the same but the space is smaller than that used for the Mandelbrot set. The resulting quotient space is obtained from the Mandelbrot set by "unpinching" the transitions between adjacent hyperbolic components. In the second case we identify renormalizable geolaminations that can be "unrenormalized" to the same hyperbolic geolamination while no two non-renormalizable geolaminations are identified.展开更多

文摘The combinatorial Mandelbrot set is a continuum in the plane, whose boundary is defined as the quotient space of the unit circle by an explicit equivalence relation. This equivalence relation was described by Douady(1984) and, separately, by Thurston(1985) who used quadratic invariant geolaminations as a major tool. We showed earlier that the combinatorial Mandelbrot set can be interpreted as a quotient of the space of all limit quadratic invariant geolaminations with the Hausdorff distance topology. In this paper, we describe two similar quotients. In the first case, the identifications are the same but the space is smaller than that used for the Mandelbrot set. The resulting quotient space is obtained from the Mandelbrot set by "unpinching" the transitions between adjacent hyperbolic components. In the second case we identify renormalizable geolaminations that can be "unrenormalized" to the same hyperbolic geolamination while no two non-renormalizable geolaminations are identified.

文摘This study aims to investigate the propagation of harmonic waves in nonlocal magneto-electro-elastic(MEE)laminated composites with interface stress imperfections using an analytical approach.The pseudo-Stroh formulation and nonlocal theory proposed by Eringen were adopted to derive the propagator matrix for each layer.Both the propagator and interface matrices were formulated to determine the recursive fields.Subsequently,the dispersion equation was obtained by imposing traction-free and magneto-electric circuit open boundary conditions on the top and bottom surfaces of the plate.Dispersion curves,mode shapes,and natural frequencies were calculated for sandwich plates composed of BaTiO3 and CoFe2O4.Numerical simulations revealed that both interface stress and the nonlocal effect influenced the tuning of the dispersion curve and mode shape for the given layup.The nonlocal effect caused a significant decrease in the dispersion curves,particularly in the high-frequency regions.Additionally,compared to the nonlocal effect,the interface stress exerted a greater influence on the mode shapes.The generalized analytical framework developed in this study provides an effective tool for both the theoretical analysis and practical design of MEE composite laminates.

文摘A partial-periodic model is proposed for predicting structural properties of composite laminate structures.The partial-periodic model contains periodic boundary conditions in one direction or two directions,and free boundary condition in other directions.In the present study,partial-periodic model for composite laminate beam structures is particularly studied.Three-point bending experiments for laminate beam specimens with different laying parameters are firstly used to verify the present partial-periodic model.In addition,a detailed finite element method(FEM)model is also used to further quantitatively compare with the present partial-periodic model for composite laminate beams with different laying parameters.The results indicate that the proposed partial-periodic model is capable of providing accurate predictions in most cases.The computational time cost of the proposed partial-periodic model is much lower than that of the detailed FEM model as well.Convergence studies are also conducted for the present partial-periodic model with different model sizes and element sizes.It is suggested that the proposed partial-periodic model has the potential to be used as an accurate and time-saving tool for predicting the structural properties of composite laminate beam structures.

文摘The remarkable mechanical properties exhibited by laminated structures have generated significant in-terest in the realm of additively manufactured laminated high-entropy alloys(HEAs).Despite this bur-geoning interest,the nexus between process,structure,and properties within laminated HEAs remains largely uncharted.There is a vast space for investigating the effect of the typical heterogeneous interface on the macroscopic mechanical properties.This study focuses on the influence of the characteristic het-erogeneous interface on macroscopic mechanical properties of laminated HEAs,particularly anisotropy.Using the 3D-printed Fe_(50)Mn_(30)Co_(10)Cr_(10)-CoCrNi HEA as a model,we investigate the impact of interface geometry on mechanical characteristics.Tensile tests show that the reduced interface spacing increases yield strength.This laminated HEA displays significant anisotropy in strength and ductility,depending on the loading direction relative to the interface.Electron microscopic observations suggest that finer layer spacing enhances interface and dislocation strengthening,increasing yield strength.Anisotropic behaviors are confirmed to be mediated by interface orientation,explained in terms of deformation compatibility and crack development at the interface.This research offers fundamental insights into the relationship between heterogeneous interfaces and the mechanical properties in laminated HEAs.The knowledge is vital for designing,fabricating,and optimizing laminated HEAs through additive manufacturing,advancing their engineering applications.

文摘Three types of Al/Al−27%Si laminated composites,each containing 22%Si,were fabricated via hot pressing and hot rolling.The microstructures,mechanical properties and thermo-physical properties of these composites were investigated.The results demonstrated that the three laminated composites exhibited similar microstructural features,characterized by well-bonded interfaces between the Al layer and the Al−27%Si alloy layer.The tensile and flexural strengths of the composites were significantly higher than those of both Al−22%Si and Al−27%Si alloys.These strengths increased gradually with decreasing the layer thickness,reaching peak values of 222.5 and 407.4 MPa,respectively.Crack deflection was observed in the cross-sections of the bending fracture surfaces,which contributed to the enhanced strength and toughness.In terms of thermo-physical properties,the thermal conductivity of the composites was lower than that of Al−22%Si and Al−27%Si alloys.The minimum reductions in thermal conductivity were 6.8%and 0.9%for the T3 laminated composite,respectively.Additionally,the coefficient of thermal expansion of the composites was improved,exhibiting varying temperature-dependent behaviors.

文摘In Ti-Al laminated composites,cracks nucleate preferentially at the Al_(3)Ti layer,but the inhibitory effect of Al_(3)Ti on crack extension is ignored.Interestingly,by combining experiment and phase-field crystal simulation,we found that the micrometer Al_(3)Ti particles in the diffusion layer play the role of crack deflection and passivation,which is attributed to the lattice distortion induced by Al_(3)Ti consumes the energy of the crack in extension.In addition,it is found that the growth process of Al_(3)Ti is divided into two stages:nucleation stage and growth stage.Compared with the growth stage,the Al_(3)Ti grains in the nucleation stage are finer in the growth layer.Finer grains show better crack deflection and avoid stress concentration.

文摘Al/Cu laminate composite was fabricated based on hot press sintering using Cu sheet and Al powders as raw materials.The effects of sintering parameters on interfacial structure and mechanical properties were investigated.The results revealed that a uniform Al/Cu interface with excellent bonding quality was achieved.The thickness of intermetallic compounds(IMCs)reached 33.88μm after sintering at 620℃for 2 h,whereas it was only 14.88μm when sintered at 600℃for 1 h.AlCu phase was developed through the reaction between Al4Cu9 and Al2Cu with prolonging sintering time,and an amorphous oxide strip formed at AlCu/Al4Cu9 interface.Both the grain morphology and interfacial structure affected the tensile strength of Al/Cu laminate,whereas the mode of tensile fracture strongly relied on the interfacial bonding strength.The highest tensile strength of 151.1 MPa and bonding strength of 93.7 MPa were achieved after sintering at 600℃for 1 h.

文摘Fiber Metal Laminates(FMLs),as high-performance composite materials,demonstrate exceptional potential in a wide range of applications,such as aeronautical and astronautical industries.However,the traditional cured FMLs possess complex interlayer stresses and low forming limits,restricting further promotion and application of FMLs.Low-constraint FMLs exhibit a lower forming resistance and better formability due to no curing during the forming process;however,the formation mechanism and response are not clear.This paper presents the Forming Limit Diagram(FLD)of low-constraint GLARE(glass fiber reinforced aluminum laminates)based on the forming limit test,and compares it with the conventionally cured laminates to evaluate the differences in the forming limit.In addition,combined with the analysis of failure mechanism and micro-deformation mechanism of specimens,the influence of different temperatures(20–80℃)and forming states(width)on the deformation performance of laminates is further explored.The results reveal that the forming limit curve of low-constraint laminates shifts up with the increase of temperature,the forming limit initially increases with the increase of width,then followed by a gradual decrease,and the maximum principal strain of low-constraint laminates is increased by 29% at 80℃ compared to 20℃.The cured laminate has a principal strain range of 0–0.02,while the low-constraint laminates have a principal strain range of 0.03–0.14.Compared with cured laminates,low-constraint laminates possess a higher forming limit due to the improvement in deformable degree between layers by resin flow and fiber slippage,which enhances their formability.This study is expected to serve as a reference for establishing forming limit criteria and optimizing forming schemes for low-constraint laminates.
文摘In this paper,a meshfree Jacobi point interpolation(MJPI)approach for the dynamic analysis of sandwich laminated conical and cylindrical shells with varying thickness is presented.The theoretical formulations for sandwich laminated shells with varying thickness are established using the modified variational principle within the framework of first-order shear deformation theory(FSDT).The displacement components of the sandwich shell are expanded using the MJPI shape function and Fourier series in the meridional and circumferential directions,respectively.The accuracy and reliability of the proposed MJPI shape function are validated against numerical results from published literature and the commercial simulation tool Abaqus.Finally,the effects of different parameters such as thickness gradient,thickness power index and boundary condition on the free vibration and dynamic response of the sandwich laminated shell are investigated.

文摘The Cu/1010 steel bimetal laminated composites(BLCs)were rolled to different thicknesses to investigate the effect of rolling direction and reduction on the microstructure evolution and mechanical properties.The difference of mechanical properties between the Cu and 1010 steel causes different thickness reductions,percentage spread,and cladding ratios.The formation of strong texture induces larger strength of the rolled samples,and as the volume fraction of 1010 steel is larger in Route-A,its strength is consistently greater than that in Route-B.The obstruction of interface to crystal and dislocation slip results in the formation of interface distortion,inducing dislocation density gradient when the rolling reduction is low in Route-A.The slip planes of the Cu and 1010 steel are more prone to suffer the normal strain,while the shear strain of other crystal planes is obviously larger than the normal strain under rolling load near the interface.
文摘Plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)coatings were prepared on Al−Mg laminated macro composites(LMCs)using both unipolar and bipolar waveforms in an appropriate electrolyte for both aluminum and magnesium alloys.The techniques of FESEM/EDS,grazing incident beam X-ray diffraction(GIXRD),and electrochemical methods of potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)were used to characterize the coatings.The results revealed that the coatings produced using the bipolar waveform exhibited lower porosity and higher thickness than those produced using the unipolar one.The corrosion performance of the specimens’cut edge was investigated using EIS after 1,8,and 12 h of immersion in a 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution.It was observed that the coating produced using the bipolar waveform demonstrated the highest corrosion resistance after 12 h of immersion,with an estimated corrosion resistance of 5.64 kΩ·cm^(2),which was approximately 3 times higher than that of the unipolar coating.Notably,no signs of galvanic corrosion were observed in the LMCs,and only minor corrosion attacks were observed on the magnesium layer in some areas.

文摘Longitudinal seismic performance is a critical aspect to be considered during the tunnel design process,in addition to cross-sectional considerations.The present study proposed using a laminated shear energy dissipation(LSED)structure to achieve effective longitudinal seismic design.The proposed structure consists of thin steel plates and alternately bonded layers of rubber,which can be installed around the periphery of the secondary lining.This configuration guarantees that the tunnels will exhibit optimal axial deformation capacity and robust rigid resistance to circumferential compression from the surrounding rock.To evaluate the impact of the LSED structure on the longitudinal seismic performance of the tunnel,a fine numerical model of the LSED structureetunnel liningesurrounding rock system was developed using finite element simulation.The evaluation criteria include maximum principal stress and strain energy.The seismic response of the tunnel with the LSED structure exhibited a notable reduction of over 40%in terms of seismic attenuation rate when subjected to the Trinidad seismic wave compared to the tunnel without the LSED structure.Furthermore,the aseismic mechanism of the proposed LSED structure is discussed,considering both internal factors such as the rubber shear modulus,steel plate dimensions,and number and location of structures,and external influencing factors such as seismic wave parameters and surrounding rock quality.Meanwhile,the effectiveness of the tunnel with the LSED structure has been quantitatively demonstrated in terms of seismic fragility curves.

文摘To improve design accuracy and reliability of structures,this study solves the uncertain natural frequencies with consideration for geometric nonlinearity and structural uncertainty.Frequencies of the laminated plate with all four edges clamped(CCCC)are derived based on Navier's method and Galerkin's method.The novelty of the current work is that the number of unknowns in the displacement field model of a CCCC plate with free midsurface(CCCC-2 plate)is only three compared with four or five in cases of other exposed methods.The present analytical method is proved to be accurate and reliable by comparing linear natural frequencies and nonlinear natural frequencies with other models available in the open literature.Furthermore,a novel method for analyzing effects of mean values and tolerance zones of uncertain structural parameters on random frequencies is proposed based on a self-developed Multiscale Feature Extraction and Fusion Network(MFEFN)system.Compared with a direct Monte Carlo Simulation(MCS),the MFEFNbased procedure significantly reduces the calculation burden with a guarantee of accuracy.Our research provides a method to calculate nonlinear natural frequencies under two boundary conditions and presentes a surrogate model to predict frequencies for accuracy analysis and optimization design.
