The m...This work investigates water-based micropolar hybrid nanofluid(MHNF) flow on an elongating variable porous sheet.Nanoparticles of diamond and copper have been used in the water to boost its thermal conductivity. The motion of the fluid is taken as two-dimensional with the impact of a magnetic field in the normal direction. The variable, permeable, and stretching nature of sheet's surface sets the fluid into motion. Thermal and mass diffusions are controlled through the use of the Cattaneo–Christov flux model. A dataset is generated using MATLAB bvp4c package solver and employed to train an artificial neural network(ANN) based on the Levenberg–Marquardt back-propagation(LMBP) algorithm. It has been observed as an outcome of this study that the modeled problem achieves peak performance at epochs 637, 112, 4848, and 344 using ANN-LMBP. The linear velocity of the fluid weakens with progression in variable porous and magnetic factors.With an augmentation in magnetic factor, the micro-rotational velocity profiles are augmented on the domain 0 ≤ η < 1.5 due to the support of micro-rotations by Lorentz forces close to the sheet's surface, while they are suppressed on the domain 1.5 ≤ η < 6.0 due to opposing micro-rotations away from the sheet's surface. Thermal distributions are augmented with an upsurge in thermophoresis, Brownian motion, magnetic, and radiation factors, while they are suppressed with an upsurge in thermal relaxation parameter. Concentration profiles increase with an expansion in thermophoresis factor and are suppressed with an intensification of Brownian motion factor and solute relaxation factor. The absolute errors(AEs) are evaluated for all the four scenarios that fall within the range 10^(-3)–10^(-8) and are associated with the corresponding ANN configuration that demonstrates a fine degree of accuracy.展开更多

However, the transfiguration of aircraft during transition stage, is complicated due to the aerodynamic interference and the change of center of gravity (CG). Moreover, the gyroscopic moment caused by tilting the high-speed revolving rotors seriously interferes with the aircraft attitude. The above-cited 6-DOF single rigid body equations do not take the inertia coupling effects into account during transition. For this sake, the article, reckoning the body, the nacelles and the rotors to be independent entities, establishes a realistic model in the form of multi-body motion equations. First, by applying Newton's laws and angular momentum theorem to a mass of elements of the aircraft, the multi-body motion equations in inertial flame as well as in body frame are obtained by integrating over all elements. As the equations are of implicit nonlinear differential type, the consistent initial value problem should be solved. Then, a numerical simulation of the differential equations is conducted by means of the Runge-Kutta-Felhberg integral algorithm. The modeling and the simulation algorithm are verified against the data of XV-15 as an example. The model can be used in the area of flight dynamics, flight control and flight safety of tilt rotor air- craft.展开更多

Error modeling for these robots generally simplifies the parallelogram structures included by the robots as a link. As the established error model fails to reflect the error feature of the parallelogram structures, the effect of accuracy design and kinematic calibration based on the error model come to be undermined. An error modeling methodology is proposed to establish an error model of parallel robots with parallelogram structures. The error model can embody the geometric errors of all joints, including the joints of parallelogram structures. Thus it can contain more exhaustively the factors that reduce the accuracy of the robot. Based on the error model and some sensitivity indices defined in the sense of statistics, sensitivity analysis is carried out. Accordingly, some atlases are depicted to express each geometric error’s influence on the moving platform’s pose errors. From these atlases, the geometric errors that have greater impact on the accuracy of the moving platform are identified, and some sensitive areas where the pose errors of the moving platform are extremely sensitive to the geometric errors are also figured out. By taking into account the error factors which are generally neglected in all existing modeling methods, the proposed modeling method can thoroughly disclose the process of error transmission and enhance the efficacy of accuracy design and calibration.展开更多

The boat is wooden, loaded with cultural relics. It has been immersed at the bottom of the South China Sea for more than 800 years. In order to protect the structure of the boat and the cultural relics inside to the largest extent, an open caisson is used to hold the sunken beat and the silts around before they are raised from the seabed all together as a whole. In the paper, first, the seakeeping model test of the system of the salvage barge and the open caisson is done to determine some important wave response parameters. And then a further experimental study of the ap- plication of the vertical hoisting jack and wave motion compensation scheme to the salvage of the sunken boat is carried out. In the model tests, the techniques of the integrative mechanic-electronic-hydraulic control, wave motion forecast and wave motion compensation are used to minimize the heave motion of the open caisson. The results of the model tests show that the heave motion of the open caisson can be reduced effectively by the use of the present method.展开更多

文摘On the basis of the model tests,this paper explores the coupled hydrodynamic performance of the moonpool and the hull.This study aims to compare and analyze the variation in the hull heave response between the piston resonance state of the moonpool under wave excitation and the non-resonance state of the moonpool under wave-current excitation.A novel damping device specifically designed and fabricated for stepped moonpools has been developed.Before and after the installation of the damping device,the free surface response characteristics of the moonpool and heave motion response characteristics of the hull are compared.The findings show a clear correlation between the current speed and heave response characteristics of the hull.During the seakeeping design phase of the drilling vessel,the current speed is an additional critical factor that cannot be disregarded,alongside the moonpool effect.A correlation exists between the fluid dynamics occurring within the moonpool and the heave motion of the vessel hull.A reduction in the amplitude of the motion of the moonpool water results in a decrease in the heave motion of the hull.This study provides a reference for alleviating the seakeeping of a drill ship’s heave response and enhancing the safety and efficiency of the operation.

文摘The design and analysis of continuum robots have consistently been a prominent research focus in the field of mechanics.However,portable continuum robots with minimal spatial occupancy,which have great potential for applications such as search and rescue,are scarcely available.This paper presents a novel helical-coiled multi-segment flexible continuum robot featuring helical deployment and compact design,with an integrated framework for structural design,kinematic modeling,and experimental validation.The design of the helical-coiled multi-segment flexible continuum robot for unstructured environment detection,including a flexible body,an actuation module,a feed module,and a sensing module,is presented systematically.Kinematic models of both single-and multisegment continuum robots were established based on the constant curvature model to analyze the parameter mapping relationship from the end-effector position and orientation to the driving inputs.Furthermore,the feedforward motion of the robot was examined,and an uncoiling strategy based on S-curve compensation was employed to complete the kinematic analysis.Finally,the accuracy of the kinematic model considering the active uncoiling feed motion was validated through experimental analysis,demonstrating the motion characteristics of the continuum robot.Altogether,this study provides a framework for the design and analysis of helical-coiled continuum robots.

文摘The intelligent vehicle corner module system,which integrates four-wheel independent drive,independent steering,independent braking and active suspension,can accurately and efficiently perform vehicle driving tasks and is the best carrier of intelligent vehicles.Nevertheless,too many angle/torque control inputs make control difficult and non-real-time.In this paper,a hierarchical real-time motion control framework for corner module configuration intelligent electric vehicles is proposed.In the trajectory planning module,an improved driving risk field is designed to describe the surrounding environment’s driving risk.Combined with the kinematic vehicle-road model,model predictive control(MPC)method,spline curve method,the local reference trajectory of safety,comfort and smoothness is planned in real time.The optimal steering angle is determined using MPC method in path tracking module.In the motion control module,a feedforward-feedback controller assigns the optimal steering angle to the front/rear axles,and an angle allocation controller distributes the target angles of the front/rear axles to four steered wheels.Finally,the PreScan-Simulink-CarSim joint simulation environment is established for conducting the human-in-the-loop emergency obstacle avoidance experiment.It took only 0.005 s for the hierarchical motion control system to determine its average solution time.This proves the effectiveness of the hierarchical motion control system.

文摘The prediction and compensation control of marine ship motion is crucial for ensuring the safety of offshore wind turbine loading and unloading operations.However,the accuracy of prediction and control is significantly affected by the hysteresis phenomenon in the wave compensation system.To address this issue,a ship heave motion prediction is proposed in this paper on the basis of the Gauss-DeepAR(AR stands for autoregressive recurrent)model and the Hilbert−Huang time-delay compensation control strategy.Initially,the zero upward traveling wave period of the level 4−6 sea state ship heave motion is analyzed,which serves as the input sliding window for the Gauss-DeepAR prediction model,and probability predictions at different wave direction angles are conducted.Next,considering the hysteresis characteristics of the ship heave motion compensation platform,the Hilbert−Huang transform is employed to analyze and calculate the hysteresis delay of the compensation platform.After the optimal control action value is subsequently calculated,simulations and hardware platform tests are conducted.The simulation results demonstrated that the Gauss-DeepAR model outperforms autoregressive integrated moving average model(ARIMA),support vector machine(SVM),and longshort-term memory(LSTM)in predicting non-independent identically distributed datasets at a 90°wave direction angle in the level 4−6 sea states.Furthermore,the model has good predictive performance and generalizability for non-independent and non-uniformly distributed datasets at a 180°wave direction angle.The hardware platform compensation test results revealed that the Hilbert–Huang method has an outstanding effect on determining the hysteretic delay and selecting the optimal control action value,and the compensation efficiency was higher than 90%in the level 4−6 sea states.

文摘Based on the Timoshenko beam theory,this paper proposes a nonlocal bi-gyroscopic model for spinning functionally graded(FG)nanotubes conveying fluid,and the thermal–mechanical vibration and stability of such composite nanostructures under small scale,rotor,and temperature coupling effects are investigated.The nanotube is composed of functionally graded materials(FGMs),and different volume fraction functions are utilized to control the distribution of material properties.Eringen’s nonlocal elasticity theory and Hamilton’s principle are applied for dynamical modeling,and the forward and backward precession frequencies as well as 3D mode configurations of the nanotube are obtained.By conducting dimensionless analysis,it is found that compared to the Timoshenko nano-beam model,the conventional Euler–Bernoulli(E-B)model holds the same flutter frequency in the supercritical region,while it usually overestimates the higher-order precession frequencies.The nonlocal,thermal,and flowing effects all can lead to buckling or different kinds of coupled flutter in the system.The material distribution of the P-type FGM nanotube can also induce coupled flutter,while that of the S-type FGM nanotube has no impact on the stability of the system.This paper is expected to provide a theoretical foundation for the design of motional composite nanodevices.

文摘This paper develops an Ito-type fractional pathwise integration theory for fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameters H∈(1/3,1/2],using the Lyons'rough path framework.This approach is designed to fill gaps in conventional stochastic calculus models that fail to account for temporal persistence prevalent in dynamic systems such as those found in economics,finance,and engineering.The pathwise-defined method not only meets the zero expectation criterion but also addresses the challenges of integrating non-semimartingale processes,which traditional Ito calculus cannot handle.We apply this theory to fractional Black–Scholes models and high-dimensional fractional Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes,illustrating the advantages of this approach.Additionally,the paper discusses the generalization of It?integrals to rough differential equations(RDE)driven by f BM,emphasizing the necessity of integrand-specific adaptations in the It?rough path lift for stochastic modeling.
文摘Captive model tests are one of the most common methods to calculate the maneuvering hydrodynamic coefficients and characteristics of surface and underwater vehicles.Considerable attention must be paid to selecting and designing the most suitable laboratory equipment for towing tanks.A computational fluid dynamics(CFD)-based method is implemented to determine the loads acting on the towing facility of the submarine model.A reversed topology is also used to ensure the appropriateness of the load cells in the developed method.In this study,the numerical simulations were evaluated using the experimental results of the SUBOFF benchmark submarine model of the Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency.The maximum and minimum loads acting on the 2.5-meter submarine model were measured by determining the body’s lightest and heaviest maneuvering test scenarios.In addition to having sufficient endurance against high loads,the precision in measuring the light load was also investigated.The horizontal planar motion mechanism(HPMM)facilities in the National Iranian Marine Laboratory were developed by locating the load cells inside the submarine model.The results were presented as a case study.A numerical-based method was developed to obtain the appropriate load measurement facilities.Load cells of HPMM test basins can be selected by following the two-way procedure presented in this study.

文摘Currently,there are a limited number of dynamic models available for braided composite plates with large overall motions,despite the incorporation of three-dimensional(3D)braided composites into rotating blade components.In this paper,a dynamic model of 3D 4-directional braided composite thin plates considering braiding directions is established.Based on Kirchhoff's plate assumptions,the displacement variables of the plate are expressed.By incorporating the braiding directions into the constitutive equation of the braided composites,the dynamic model of the plate considering braiding directions is obtained.The effects of the speeds,braiding directions,and braided angles on the responses of the plate with fixed-axis rotation and translational motion,respectively,are investigated.This paper presents a dynamic theory for calculating the deformation of 3D braided composite structures undergoing both translational and rotational motions.It also provides a simulation method for investigating the dynamic behavior of non-isotropic material plates in various applications.

文摘This work investigates water-based micropolar hybrid nanofluid(MHNF) flow on an elongating variable porous sheet.Nanoparticles of diamond and copper have been used in the water to boost its thermal conductivity. The motion of the fluid is taken as two-dimensional with the impact of a magnetic field in the normal direction. The variable, permeable, and stretching nature of sheet's surface sets the fluid into motion. Thermal and mass diffusions are controlled through the use of the Cattaneo–Christov flux model. A dataset is generated using MATLAB bvp4c package solver and employed to train an artificial neural network(ANN) based on the Levenberg–Marquardt back-propagation(LMBP) algorithm. It has been observed as an outcome of this study that the modeled problem achieves peak performance at epochs 637, 112, 4848, and 344 using ANN-LMBP. The linear velocity of the fluid weakens with progression in variable porous and magnetic factors.With an augmentation in magnetic factor, the micro-rotational velocity profiles are augmented on the domain 0 ≤ η < 1.5 due to the support of micro-rotations by Lorentz forces close to the sheet's surface, while they are suppressed on the domain 1.5 ≤ η < 6.0 due to opposing micro-rotations away from the sheet's surface. Thermal distributions are augmented with an upsurge in thermophoresis, Brownian motion, magnetic, and radiation factors, while they are suppressed with an upsurge in thermal relaxation parameter. Concentration profiles increase with an expansion in thermophoresis factor and are suppressed with an intensification of Brownian motion factor and solute relaxation factor. The absolute errors(AEs) are evaluated for all the four scenarios that fall within the range 10^(-3)–10^(-8) and are associated with the corresponding ANN configuration that demonstrates a fine degree of accuracy.

文摘The previous study on modeling of the tilt rotor aircraft used to put a premium on the complicated aerodynamic computation, and the research on the motion equations is often constrained to frequently use the oversimplified 6-degree of freedom (DOF) rigid body equations. However, the transfiguration of aircraft during transition stage, is complicated due to the aerodynamic interference and the change of center of gravity (CG). Moreover, the gyroscopic moment caused by tilting the high-speed revolving rotors seriously interferes with the aircraft attitude. The above-cited 6-DOF single rigid body equations do not take the inertia coupling effects into account during transition. For this sake, the article, reckoning the body, the nacelles and the rotors to be independent entities, establishes a realistic model in the form of multi-body motion equations. First, by applying Newton's laws and angular momentum theorem to a mass of elements of the aircraft, the multi-body motion equations in inertial flame as well as in body frame are obtained by integrating over all elements. As the equations are of implicit nonlinear differential type, the consistent initial value problem should be solved. Then, a numerical simulation of the differential equations is conducted by means of the Runge-Kutta-Felhberg integral algorithm. The modeling and the simulation algorithm are verified against the data of XV-15 as an example. The model can be used in the area of flight dynamics, flight control and flight safety of tilt rotor air- craft.

文摘The design work of motional cable in products is vital due to the difficulty in estimating the potential issues in current researches.In this paper,a physics-based modeling and simulation method for the motional cable harness design is presented.The model,based on continuum mechanics,is established by analyzing the force of microelement in equilibrium.During the analysis procedure,three coordinate systems:inertial,Frenet and main-axis coordinate systems are used.By variable substitution and dimensionless processing,the equation set is discretized by differential quadrature method and subsequently becomes an overdetermined nonlinear equation set with boundary conditions solved by Levenberg-Marquardt method.With the profile of motional cable harness obtained from the integral of arithmetic solution,a motion simulation system based on"path"and"profile"as well as the experimental equipments is built.Using the same parameters as input for the simulation and the real cable harness correspondingly,the issue in designing,such as collision,can be easily found by the simulation system.This research obtains a better result which has no potential collisions by redesign,and the proposed method can be used as an accurate and efficient way in motional cable harness design work.

文摘Parallel robots with SCARA(selective compliance assembly robot arm) motions are utilized widely in the field of high speed pick-and-place manipulation. Error modeling for these robots generally simplifies the parallelogram structures included by the robots as a link. As the established error model fails to reflect the error feature of the parallelogram structures, the effect of accuracy design and kinematic calibration based on the error model come to be undermined. An error modeling methodology is proposed to establish an error model of parallel robots with parallelogram structures. The error model can embody the geometric errors of all joints, including the joints of parallelogram structures. Thus it can contain more exhaustively the factors that reduce the accuracy of the robot. Based on the error model and some sensitivity indices defined in the sense of statistics, sensitivity analysis is carried out. Accordingly, some atlases are depicted to express each geometric error’s influence on the moving platform’s pose errors. From these atlases, the geometric errors that have greater impact on the accuracy of the moving platform are identified, and some sensitive areas where the pose errors of the moving platform are extremely sensitive to the geometric errors are also figured out. By taking into account the error factors which are generally neglected in all existing modeling methods, the proposed modeling method can thoroughly disclose the process of error transmission and enhance the efficacy of accuracy design and calibration.
文摘The application of the vertical hoisting jack and wave motion compensation techniques to the salvage of an ancient sunken boat is introduced. The boat is wooden, loaded with cultural relics. It has been immersed at the bottom of the South China Sea for more than 800 years. In order to protect the structure of the boat and the cultural relics inside to the largest extent, an open caisson is used to hold the sunken beat and the silts around before they are raised from the seabed all together as a whole. In the paper, first, the seakeeping model test of the system of the salvage barge and the open caisson is done to determine some important wave response parameters. And then a further experimental study of the ap- plication of the vertical hoisting jack and wave motion compensation scheme to the salvage of the sunken boat is carried out. In the model tests, the techniques of the integrative mechanic-electronic-hydraulic control, wave motion forecast and wave motion compensation are used to minimize the heave motion of the open caisson. The results of the model tests show that the heave motion of the open caisson can be reduced effectively by the use of the present method.
