To fulfill the requirements of a free jet inlet/engine compatibility test within a wide simulation envelop, both uniform flow-fields of continuous acceleration and deceleration are necessary. In this paper, the aerodynamic design methods of an expansion wall and machinery implementation plan for the halfflexible single jack nozzle were researched. The profile control in nozzle flexible plate design was studied with a rigid-flexible coupling method. Design and calculations were performed with the help of numerical simulation. The technique of axial free stretching of the flexible plate was used to improve the matching performance between the designed elasticity profile and the theoretical one, and the rigid-flexible coupling structure was calibrated by wind tunnel tests. Results indicate that the flexible plate aerodynamic design method used here is effective and feasible. Via rigidflexible coupling design, the flexible plate agrees with the rigid body very well, and continuous Mach number changes can be achieved during the tests. The nozzle’s exit flow-field uniformity meets the requirements of China Military Standard(GJB).展开更多

Simulation examples of the flexible beam with prescribed rotation and free rotation were investigated. Numerical results show that the use of the first-order approximation coupling (FOAC) model may lead to a significant error when the flexible beam experiences large deformation or large deformation velocity. However, the correct solutions can always be obtained by using the present complete model. The difference in essence between this model and the FOAC model is revealed. These coupling high-order terms, which are ignored in FOAC model, have a remarkable effect on the dynamic behavior of the flexible body. Therefore, these terms should be included for the rigid-flexible dynamic modeling and analysis of flexible body undergoing motions with high speed.展开更多

This paper presents a 2-D rigid-flexible coupling model to calculate the vehicle's dynamic responses in that period.The vehicle was equivalent to a flexure beam with axial deformation. Hybrid coordinate and modal superposition methods were used to describe its large rigid displacement and small deformation. By the second Lagrange equation,the vehicle centroid's displacements,rotational angle and modal coordinates were chosen as generalized coordinates and then the vehicle 's rigid-flexible coupling dynamic equations were obtained. By numerical simulation,the results of vehicle's motion parameters and transverse internal loads were acquired.The calculation results showed that differences of the vehicle's motion parameters between the rigid-flexible coupling model and the rigid body assumption are noticeable and the peak magnitude of the vehicle's transverse internal loads in the rigid-flexible coupling model is higher remarkably than that in the rigid body assumption.展开更多

The proposed nonlinear coupled model takes the hi...In order to account for rigid-flexible coupling effects of floating offshore wind turbines, a nonlinear rigid-flexible coupled dynamic model is proposed in this paper. The proposed nonlinear coupled model takes the higher-order axial displacements into account, which are usually neglected in the conventional linear dynamic model. Subsequently,investigations on the dynamic differences between the proposed nonlinear dynamic model and the linear one are conducted. The results demonstrate that the stiffness of the turbine blades in the proposed nonlinear dynamic model increases with larger overall motions but that in the linear dynamic model declines with larger overall motions.Deformation of the blades in the nonlinear dynamic model is more reasonable than that in the linear model as well.Additionally, more distinct coupling effects are observed in the proposed nonlinear model than those in the linear model. Finally, it shows that the aerodynamic loads, the structural loads and global dynamic responses of floating offshore wind turbines using the nonlinear dynamic model are slightly smaller than those using the linear dynamic model. In summary, compared with the conventional linear dynamic model, the proposed nonlinear coupling dynamic model is a higher-order dynamic model in consideration of the rigid-flexible coupling effects of floating offshore wind turbines, and accord more perfectly with the engineering facts.展开更多

The aim of the present work is to extend the nonlinear formulations to an elastic beam with free large overall motion. Based on initial stress method, the nonlinear coupling equations of elastic beams are obtained with free large overall motion and the attached stiffness matrix is derived by solving sub-static formulation. The angular velocity and the tip deformation of the elastic pendulum are calculated. The analytical results show that the simulation results of the present model are tabled and coincide with the one-order approximate model. It is shown that the simulation results accord with energy conservation principle.展开更多

文摘Deep tight reservoirs exhibit complex stress and seepage fields due to varying pore structures,thus the seepage characteristics are significant for enhancing oil production.This study conducted triaxial compression and permeability tests to investigate the mechanical and seepage properties of tight sandstone.A digital core of tight sandstone was built using Computed Tomography(CT)scanning,which was divided into matrix and pore phases by a pore equivalent diameter threshold.A fluid-solid coupling model was established to investigate the seepage characteristics at micro-scale.The results showed that increasing the confining pressure decreased porosity,permeability,and flow velocity,with the pore phase becoming the dominant seepage channel.Cracks and large pores closed first under increasing pressure,resulted in a steep drop in permeability.However,permeability slightly decreased under high confining pressure,which followed a first-order exponential function.Flow velocity increased with seepage pressure.And the damage mainly occurred in stress-concentration regions under low seepage pressure.Seepage behavior followed linear Darcy flow,the damage emerged at seepage entrances under high pressure,which decreased rock elastic modulus and significantly increased permeability.

文摘The oscillation of large space structure(LSS)can be easily induced because of its low vibration frequency.The coupling effect between LSS vibration control and attitude control can significantly reduce the overall performance of the control system,especially when the scale of flexible structure increases.This paper proposes an optimal placement method of piezoelectric stack actuators(PSAs)network which reduces the coupling effect between attitude and vibration control system.First,a spacecraft with a honeycomb-shaped telescope is designed for a resolution-critical imaging scenario.The coupling dynamics of the spacecraft is established using finite element method(FEM)and floating frame of reference formulation(FFRF).Second,a coupling-effect-reducing optimal placement criterion for PSAs based on coupling-matrix enhanced Gramian is designed to reduce the coupling effect excitation while balancing controllability.Additionally,a laddered multi-layered optimizing scheme is established to increase the speed and accuracy when solving the gigantic discrete optimization problem.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated through numerical simulation.

文摘The occurrence of top-down(TD)cracking has gradually become a prevalent issue in semi-rigid base asphalt pavements after prolonged service.A coupled simulation model integrating the finite difference method(FDM)and discrete element method(DEM)was employed to investigate the mechanical behavior of asphalt pavement containing a pre-existing TD crack.The mesoscopic parameters of the model were calibrated based on the mixture modulus and the static mechanical response on the MLS66 test road.Finally,an analysis was performed to assess how variations in TD crack depth and longitudinal length affect the distribution patterns of transverse tensile stress,vertical shear stress,and vertical compressive stress.The results indicate that the vertical propagation of TD crack significantly increases both the tensile stress value and range on the middle surface,while the longitudinal development of TD crack has minimal impact.This phenomenon may result in more severe fatigue failure on the middle surface.With the vertical and longitudinal development of TD crack,the vertical shear stress and compressive stress show obvious"two-stage"characteristics.When the crack's vertical length reaches 40 mm,there is a sharp increase in stress on the upper surface.As the crack continues to propagate vertically,the growth of stress on the upper surface becomes negligible,while the stress in the middle and lower layers increased significantly.Conversely,for longitudinal development of TD crack,any changes in stress are insignificant when their length is less than 180 mm;however,as they continue to develop longitudinally beyond this threshold,there is a sharp increase in stress levels.These findings hold great significance for understanding pavement structure deterioration and maintenance behavior associated with TD crack.

文摘Electrochemical conversion of lignin for the production of high-value heterocyclic aromatic compounds has great potential.We demonstrate the targeted synthesis and cation modulation of NiCo_(2)O_(4)spinel nanoboxes,synthesized via cation exchange and calcination oxidation.These catalysts exhibit excellent efficacy in the electrocatalytic conversion of lignin model compounds,specifically 2-phenoxy-1-phenylethanol,into nitrogen-containing aromatics,achieving high conversion rates and selectivities.These catalysts were synthesized via a cation exchange and calcination oxidation process,using Prussian blue nanocubes as precursors.The porous architecture and polymetallic composition of the NiCo_(2)O_(4)spinel demonstrated superior performance in electrocatalytic oxidative coupling,achieving a 99.2 wt%conversion rate of the 2-phenoxy-1-phenylethanol with selectivities of 37.5 wt%for quinoline derivatives and 31.5 wt%for phenol.Key innovations include the development of a sustainable one-pot synthesis method for quinoline derivatives,the elucidation of a multistage reaction pathway involving CAO bond cleavage,hydroxyaldol condensation,and CAN bond formation,and a deeper mechanistic understanding derived from DFT simulations.This work establishes a new strategy for lignin valorization,offering a sustainable route to produce high-value nitrogen-containing aromatics from renewable biomass under mild conditions,without the need for additional reagents.

文摘In order to account for rigid-flexible coupling effects of floating offshore wind turbines, a nonlinear rigid-flexible coupled dynamic model is proposed in this paper. The proposed nonlinear coupled model takes the higher-order axial displacements into account, which are usually neglected in the conventional linear dynamic model. Subsequently,investigations on the dynamic differences between the proposed nonlinear dynamic model and the linear one are conducted. The results demonstrate that the stiffness of the turbine blades in the proposed nonlinear dynamic model increases with larger overall motions but that in the linear dynamic model declines with larger overall motions.Deformation of the blades in the nonlinear dynamic model is more reasonable than that in the linear model as well.Additionally, more distinct coupling effects are observed in the proposed nonlinear model than those in the linear model. Finally, it shows that the aerodynamic loads, the structural loads and global dynamic responses of floating offshore wind turbines using the nonlinear dynamic model are slightly smaller than those using the linear dynamic model. In summary, compared with the conventional linear dynamic model, the proposed nonlinear coupling dynamic model is a higher-order dynamic model in consideration of the rigid-flexible coupling effects of floating offshore wind turbines, and accord more perfectly with the engineering facts.

文摘Studying the coupling coordination development of new energy vehicles(NEVs)and the ecological environment in China is helpful in promoting the development of NEVs in the country and is of great significance in promoting high-quality development of new energy in China.This paper constructs an evaluation index system for the development of NEVs and the ecological environment.It uses game theory combining weighting model,particle swarm optimized projection tracking evaluation model,coupling coordination degree model,and machine learning algorithms to calculate and analyze the level of coupling coordination development of NEVs and the ecological environment in China from 2010 to 2021,and identifies the driving factors.The research results show that:(i)From 2010 to 2021,the development index of NEVs in China has steadily increased from 0.085 to 0.634,while the ecological environment level index significantly rose from 0.170 to 0.884,reflecting the continuous development of China in both NEVs and the ecological environment.(ii)From 2010 to 2012,the two systems—new energy vehicle(NEV)development and the ecological environment—were in a period of imbalance and decline.From 2013 to 2016,they underwent a transition period,and from 2017 to 2021,they entered a period of coordinated development showing a trend of benign and continuous improvement.By 2021,they reached a good level of coordination.(iii)Indicators such as the number of patents granted for NEVs,water consumption per unit of GDP,and energy consumption per unit of GDP are the main driving factors affecting the coupling coordination development of NEVs and the ecological environment in China.

文摘This study investigates the coordination between regional economic growth and ecological sustainability within the context of high-quality town economy development.To address the challenges of balancing economic expansion with environmental protection,a comprehensive evaluation index system is constructed,encompassing two key dimensions:regional economy and ecological environment.Using panel data from 2013 to 2022,the coupling coordination degree model is employed to quantify the interactions and synergy between these dimensions.Additionally,spatial econometric methods are applied to calculate both global and local Moran’s Index,revealing spatial clustering patterns,regional disparities,and heterogeneity.The relative development model further identifies critical factors influencing regional coordination,with a focus on the lagging development of basic infrastructure and public services.The findings demonstrate a positive temporal trend toward improved regional coordination and reduced development gaps,with a spatial pattern characterized by higher coupling degrees in eastern and central regions compared to western areas.Based on these results,this study proposes actionable strategies to enhance coordinated development,emphasizing ecological conservation,the establishment of green production and consumption systems,ecological restoration,and strengthened municipal collaboration.This revised abstract emphasizes the study’s purpose,methods,and key findings more clearly while maintaining a professional and concise tone.Finally,based on the above analysis results,the corresponding coordinated development suggestions of regional economy and ecological environment are given from the aspects of ecological environment protection measures,green production and consumption system construction,ecological environment restoration and municipal coordination.

文摘As the main geomaterials for coral reefs oil or gas extraction and underground infrastructure construction,coral reef limestone demonstrates significantly distinct mechanical responses compared to terrigenous rocks.To investigate the mechanical behaviour of coral reef limestone under the coupling impact of size and strain rate,the uniaxial compression tests were conducted on reef limestone samples with length-to-diameter(L/D)ratio ranging from 0.5 to 2.0 at strain rate ranging from 10^(−5)·s^(−1)to 10^(−2)·s^(−1).It is revealed that the uniaxial compressive strength(UCS)and residual compressive strength(RCS)of coral reef limestone exhibits a decreasing trend with L/D ratio increasing.The dynamic increase factor(DIF)of UCS is linearly correlated with the logarithm of strain rate,while increasing the L/D ratio further enhances the DIF.The elastic modulus increases with strain rate or L/D ratio increasing,whereas the Poisson’s ratio approximates to a constant value of 0.24.The failure strain increases with strain rate increasing or L/D ratio decreasing,while the increase in L/D ratio will inhibit the enhancing effect of the strain rate.The high porosity and low mineral strength are the primary factors contributing to a high RCS of 16.7%–64.9%of UCS,a lower brittleness index and multiple irregular fracture planes.The failure pattern of coral reef limestone transits from the shear-dominated to the splitting-dominated failure with strain rate increasing or L/D ratio decreasing,which is mainly governed by the constrained zones induced by end friction and the strain rate-dependent crack propagation.Moreover,a predictive formula incorporating coupling effect of size and strain rate for the UCS of reef limestone was established and verified to effectively capture the trend of UCS.

文摘Previous work examined the effect of the attached stiffness matrix terms on stability of an elastic beam undergoing prescribed large overall motion. The aim of the present work is to extend the nonlinear formulations to an elastic beam with free large overall motion. Based on initial stress method, the nonlinear coupling equations of elastic beams are obtained with free large overall motion and the attached stiffness matrix is derived by solving sub-static formulation. The angular velocity and the tip deformation of the elastic pendulum are calculated. The analytical results show that the simulation results of the present model are tabled and coincide with the one-order approximate model. It is shown that the simulation results accord with energy conservation principle.

文摘The gear transmission system directly affects the operational performance of high-speed trains(HST).However,current research on gear transmission systems of HST often overlooks the effects of gear eccentricity and running resistance,and the dynamic models of gear transmission system are not sufficiently comprehensive.This paper aims to establish an electromechanical coupling dynamic model of HST traction transmission system and study its electromechanical coupling vibration characteristics,in which the internal excitation factors such as gear eccentricity,time-varying meshing stiffness,backlash,meshing error,and external excitation factors such as electromagnetic torque and running resistance are stressed.The research results indicate that gear eccentricity and running resistance have a significant impact on the stability of the system,and gear eccentricity leads to intensified system vibration and decreased anti-interference ability.In addition,the characteristic frequency of gear eccentricity can be extracted from mechanical signals and current signals as a preliminary basis for eccentricity detection,and electrical signals can also be used to monitor changes in train running resistance in real time.The results of this study provide some useful insights into designing dynamic performance parameters for HST transmission systems and monitoring train operational states.

文摘Ultra-precision components have been widely used to produce advanced optoelectronic equipment.The so-called Electric field enhanced UltraViolet-Induced Jet Machining(EUV-INCJM)is an ultra-precision method that can achieve sub-nanometer level surface quality polishing.This study focuses on the application of the EUV-INCJM with different nozzle structures to a single-crystal of silicon.Two kinds of electro-optic-liquid coupling nozzles with single-jet and multi-jet focusing structures are proposed accordingly.Simulations and experiments have been conducted to verify the material removal performance of these nozzles.The simulation results show that,under the same condition,the flow velocity of the single-jet nozzle is 1.05 times higher than that achieved with the multi-jet configuration,while the current density of the latter is 1.63 times higher than that of the single-jet nozzle.For the single-crystal silicon,the material removal efficiency of the multi-jet focusing nozzle exceeds by about 1.4 times that of the single-jet.These results confirm that the material removal ability of the multi-jet configuration is more suitable for ultra-smooth surface polishing.The surface roughness of Si workpiece was reduced from Rq 1.55 to Rq 0.816 nm with valleys and peaks on its surface being almost completely removed.

文摘Dislocations and disclinations are fundamental topological defects within crystals,which determine the mechanical properties of metals and alloys.Despite their important roles in multiple physical mechanisms,e.g.,dynamic recovery and grain boundary mediated plasticity,the intrinsic coupling and correlation between disclinations and dislocations,and their impacts on the deformation behavior of metallic materials still remain obscure,partially due to the lack of a theoretical tool to capture the rotational nature of disclinations.By using a Lie-algebra-based theoretical framework,we obtain a general equation to quantify the intrinsic coupling of disclinations and dislocations.Through quasi in-situ electron backscatter diffraction characterizations and disclination/dislocation density analyses in Mg alloys,the generation,coevolution and reactions of disclinations and dislocations during dynamic recovery and superplastic deformation have been quantitatively analyzed.It has been demonstrated that the obtained governing equation can capture multiple physical processes associated with mechanical deformation of metals,e.g.,grain rotation and grain boundary migration,at both room temperature and high temperature.By establishing the disclination-dislocation coupling equation within a Lie algebra description,our work provides new insights for exploring the coevolution and reaction of disclinations/dislocations,with profound implications for elucidating the microstructure-property relationship and underlying deformation mechanisms in metallic materials.
