First, an experimental set-up is presented. Four collision tests have been performed: two tests in Backward Moving Plate(BMP) configuration, where the plate moves in opposition to jet, and two tests in Forward Moving Plate(FMP) configuration, where the plate moves alongside the jet. Based on the virtual origin approximation,a methodology(the Virtual Origin Method, VOM) is developed to extract quantities from the X-ray images, which serve as comparative data. γSPH simulations are carried out to complete the analysis, as they well capture the disturbance dynamics observed in the experiments. Based on these complementary experimental and numerical results, a new physical description is proposed through a detailed analysis of the interaction. It is shown that the SCJ/MP interaction is driven at first order by the contact geometry. Thus, BMP and FMP configurations do not generate the same disturbances because their local flow geometries are different. In the collision point frame of reference, the BMP flows in the same direction as the jet, causing its overall deflection. On the contrary, the FMP flow opposes that of the jet leading to an alternative creation of fragments and ligaments. An in-depth study, using the VOM shows that deflection angles, fragment-ligament creation frequencies, and deflection velocities evolve as the interaction progresses through slower jet elements.展开更多

In a r...The attosecond extreme ultraviolet(XUV) pulse pump and femtosecond infrared(IR) pulse probe scheme is commonly used to study the dynamics and attosecond transient absorption(ATA) spectra of microscopic systems. In a recent report [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 121 e2307836121(2024)], we showed that shaped XUV pulses with spectral minima can significantly alter the absorption line shape of helium's 2s2p doubly excited state within a few tens of attoseconds.However, it remains unclear if similar effects could be observed in a singly excited state. In this study, we use shaped XUV pulses to excite helium's 2p singly excited state and couple the 2p and 3d states with a delayed IR pulse. Comparing these results with those from Gaussian XUV pulses, we find that the ATA spectra for the shaped XUV pulses exhibit more pronounced changes with delay, while the changes for the Gaussian pulses are gradual. We also explain these differences through population changes and analytical models. Our findings show that shaped XUV pulses can regulate the dynamics and absorption spectra of a singly excited state.展开更多

To substantiate the design parameters of shaped charges that ensure the formation of aluminum particles in a wide velocity range(from 2.5 to 16 km/s), numerical modeling of the formation process was carried out within the framework of a two-dimensional axisymmetric problem of continuum mechanics using three different computing codes to increase the reliability of the results. The calculations consider shaped charges with a diameter of 20-100 mm with aluminum liners of various shapes. It is shown that the formation of particles with velocities close to the lower limit of the considered range is ensured by gently sloping segmental liners of degressive thickness. To form higher-velocity particles with velocities over 5 km/s, it is proposed to use combined liners, the jet-forming part of which has the shape of a hemisphere of constant thickness or the shape of a semi-ellipsoid or semi-superellipsoid of rotation of degressive thickness.展开更多

文摘The Explosive Reactive Armors(ERA)are really efficient at reducing Shaped Charge Jet(SCJ)performance.The main destabilizing mechanism is the transverse movement of the front and rear moving plates(MP)on the SCJ.Therefore,a good understanding of the interaction SCJ/MP is essential for improving both weapon and armor systems.In a previous article,we have shown that interaction regimes are mainly influenced by the local collision geometry.Thus,in the collision point frame,the angle of collision be-tween the continuous SCJ and the MP is a key parameter.This flow angle is acute for the Backward Moving plate(BMP)moving against the SCJ and obtuse for the Forward Moving Plate(FMP)moving alongside it.In the former,the jet is simply deflected,which is the regime 1 of deflection.In the latter,the interaction turns on an alternative creation of fragment and ligament,which is the regime 2.Fragments are parts of the jet that are only slightly deflected while ligaments are the curved material bridges that connect two consecutive fragments.When stretching,the jet is systematically subject to instabilities that disturb its surface,creating necks along it.Their growth finally leads to the jet fragmentation.In this article,we focus on this jet distur-bance and its consequences on the SCJ/MP interaction.An experimental set-up was built to implement the interaction between a SCJ and a moving plate for different collision points,at different stand-off distances.The plate can interact with a smooth SCJ or a disturbed SCJ at a close and a far stand-off distance,respectively.One of the main results is the visualization of a regime change in SCJ/BMP interaction.A regime 1(deflection)interaction changes into a ligament regime interaction(similar to a FMP regime 2)when the collision point stand-off is increased.It is proposed that this change can be attributed as the increase of the amplitude of the jet surface disturbances.This phenomenon is well captured by the gSPH simula-tions.Finally,using both experimental and numerical approaches,we propose a new detailed analysis of the different phenomena occurring during the interaction between a disturbed-surface jet and a moving plate.Interaction regime changes are linked to jet local geometry changes.The interactions of a BMP with a smooth SCJ or with a disturbed surface SCJ are geometrically not the same and,thus,generate different local flows and interaction mechanisms.However,some other simulations have been carried out with constant velocity jet whose surface has been previously disturbed.These simulations underline the influence of both disturbance wavelength l and amplitude A on the interaction regimes.Surface disturbances of the SCJ,linked to its stretching,have a major influence on its interaction with a moving plate.

文摘The attosecond extreme ultraviolet(XUV) pulse pump and femtosecond infrared(IR) pulse probe scheme is commonly used to study the dynamics and attosecond transient absorption(ATA) spectra of microscopic systems. In a recent report [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 121 e2307836121(2024)], we showed that shaped XUV pulses with spectral minima can significantly alter the absorption line shape of helium's 2s2p doubly excited state within a few tens of attoseconds.However, it remains unclear if similar effects could be observed in a singly excited state. In this study, we use shaped XUV pulses to excite helium's 2p singly excited state and couple the 2p and 3d states with a delayed IR pulse. Comparing these results with those from Gaussian XUV pulses, we find that the ATA spectra for the shaped XUV pulses exhibit more pronounced changes with delay, while the changes for the Gaussian pulses are gradual. We also explain these differences through population changes and analytical models. Our findings show that shaped XUV pulses can regulate the dynamics and absorption spectra of a singly excited state.

文摘Reactive armour is a very efficient add-on armour against shaped charge threats.Explosive reactive armour consists of one or several plates that are accelerated by an explosive.Similar but less violent acceleration of plates can also be achieved in a completely inert reactive armour.To be efficient against elongated jets,the motion of the plates needs to be inclined against the jet such that a sliding contact between the jet and the plates is established.This sliding contact causes a deflection and thinning of the jet.Under certain circumstances,the contact will become unstable,leading to severe disturbances on the jet.These disturbances will drastically reduce the jet penetration performance and it is therefore of interest to study the conditions that leads to an unstable contact.Previous studies on the interaction between shaped charge jets and flyer plates have shown that it is mainly the forward moving plate in an explosive reactive armour that is effective in disturbing the jet.This is usually attributed to the higher plate-to-jet mass flux ratio involved in the collision of the forward moving plate compared to the backward moving plate.For slow moving plates,as occurs in inert reactive armour,the difference in mass flux for the forward and backward moving plate is much lesser,and it is therefore of interest to study if other factors than the mass flux influences on the protection capability.In this work,experiments have been performed where a plate is accelerated along its length,interacting with a shaped charge jet that is fired at an oblique angle to the plate’s normal,either against or along the plate’s velocity.The arrangement corresponds to a jet interacting with a flyer plate from a reactive armour,with the exception that the collision velocity is the same for both types of obliquities in these experiments.The experiments show that disturbances on the jet are different in the two cases even though the collision velocities are the same.Numerical simulations of the interaction support the observation.The difference is attributed to the character of the contact pressure in the interaction region.For a backward moving plate,the maximum contact pressure is obtained at the beginning of the interaction zone and the contact pressure is therefore higher upstream than downstream of the jet while the opposite is true for a forward moving plate.A negative interface pressure gradient with respect to the jet motion results in a more stable flow than a positive,which means that the jet-plate contact is more stable for a backward moving plate than for a forward moving plate.A forward moving plate is thus more effective in disturbing the jet than a backward moving plate,not only because of the higher jet to plate mass flux ratio but also because of the character of the contact with the jet.

文摘Under the working environment of high temperature and strong load impact,hot forging die is prone to failure which reduces the service life of die.Using arc additive manufacturing in the die cavity,a gradient material hot forging die with high precision,superior per-formance,and conformal cooling channels is developed.This improves the toughness of the die cavity and reduces the working temperature,thereby forming an isothermal field,which is an effective method to enhance the lifespan of the hot forging die.Three kinds of gradient flux-cored wires are designed for the surface of 5CrNiMo steel,and the microstructure and mechanical properties between gradient interfaces were studied.Based on the spatial curved structure of shaped waterways in the hot forging die cavity,a study was conducted on the strategy of partitioned forming for the manufacturing of the die with shaped waterways.In order to avoid interference with the arc gun,the hot for-ging die is divided into four regions,namely the transition region,upper,middle,and lower region,based on a combination of cavity depth and internal U-shaped and quadrilateral structures.The results show that the developed flux-cored wires have good moldability with straight sides of deposited metal under different process parameters and flat surface without cracks,pores and other defects.Under the same working conditions,the life of hot forging die formed by the gradient materials is more than multiple times that of the single material hot forging die,and the temperature gradient field of the shaped waterway die is 7℃/cm smaller than that of traditional straight waterway.

文摘Shaped charge liner(SCL)has been extensively applied in oil recovery and defense industries.Achieving superior penetration capability through optimizing SCL structures presents a substantial challenge due to intricate rate-dependent processes involving detonation-driven liner collapse,high-speed jet stretching,and penetration.This study introduces an innovative optimization strategy for SCL structures that employs jet penetration efficiency as the primary objective function.The strategy combines experimentally validated finite element method with machine learning(FEM-ML).We propose a novel jet penetration efficiency index derived from enhanced cutoff velocity and shape characteristics of the jet via machine learning.This index effectively evaluates the jet penetration performance.Furthermore,a multi-model fusion based on a machine learning optimization method,called XGBOOST-MFO,is put forward to optimize SCL structure over a large input space.The strategy's feasibility is demonstrated through the optimization of copper SCL implemented via the FEM-ML strategy.Finally,this strategy is extended to optimize the structure of the recently emerging CrMnFeCoNi high-entropy alloy conical liners and hemispherical copper liners.Therefore,the strategy can provide helpful guidance for the engineering design of SCL.
文摘Testing rocket and space technology objects in ground conditions for resistance to the impact of meteoroids and fragments of space debris can be carried out using shaped charges. To substantiate the design parameters of shaped charges that ensure the formation of aluminum particles in a wide velocity range(from 2.5 to 16 km/s), numerical modeling of the formation process was carried out within the framework of a two-dimensional axisymmetric problem of continuum mechanics using three different computing codes to increase the reliability of the results. The calculations consider shaped charges with a diameter of 20-100 mm with aluminum liners of various shapes. It is shown that the formation of particles with velocities close to the lower limit of the considered range is ensured by gently sloping segmental liners of degressive thickness. To form higher-velocity particles with velocities over 5 km/s, it is proposed to use combined liners, the jet-forming part of which has the shape of a hemisphere of constant thickness or the shape of a semi-ellipsoid or semi-superellipsoid of rotation of degressive thickness.

文摘The machining surface integrity of aero-engine turbine disc slots has a significant impact on their fatigue life and service performance,and achieving efficiency and high-precision machining is still a great challenge.The high machining requirements of future aeroengine turbine disc slots will be difficult to satisfy using the broaching method.In addition,existing methods of slot machin-ing face difficulties in ensuring surface integrity.This study explored a cup shaped electroplated Cubic Boron Nitride(CBN)abrasive wheel for profile grinding the turbine disc slots of FGH96 powder metallurgy superalloy.The matrix structure of the cup shaped abrasive wheel was designed and verified.A profile grinding experiment was conducted for fir-tree slots on a five-axis machining center.The accuracy and the surface integrity were analyzed.Results show that the key dimension detection results of the slots were within the allowable tolerance range.Meanwhile,an average sur-face roughness Ra of 0.55μm was achieved,the residual stress was compressive,the plastic defor-mation layer thickness was less than 5μm,and the hardening layer thickness was less than 20μm.The research findings provide a new approach to machining the slots of aviation engine turbine discs and guidance for the high-quality processing of complex components.

文摘The application of perforating completion technology in oil and gas field development has gained widespread popularity.Enhancing the efficiency of oil and gas wells relies on increasing the penetration depth,which is influenced by the design of the perforation charge and the strength characteristics of the rock material.However,as a crucial objective function for optimizing perforating charge structures,jet velocity lacks a rapid and accurate calculating method.This article addresses this issue by proposing an improved collapse velocity model using the DP46RDX42-Y perforating charge as a case study.It presents a novel approach for calculating jet velocity based on the unsteady Pugh-Eichelberger-Rostoker(PER)theory.To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method and analyze the impact of different characteristic parameters on jet tip velocity,a series of numerical simulations were conducted using LS-DYNA software combined with Arbitrary Lagrange-Euler(ALE)techniques.Results indicate excellent agreement between the proposed method and the numerical results,demonstrating its superiority over the traditional Gurney formula with an impressive 34.15%increase in accuracy.Notably,this method is particularly suitable for perforating charges with low detonation velocity.Increasing the liner density and decreasing the liner thickness and cone angle is recommended to achieve higher jet tip velocity.Furthermore,the proposed method has the potential for broader application in other perforating charges with varying liner shapes.This study provides a comprehensive and efficient solution for calculating jet velocity,which facilitates optimizing perforating charge structures and calculating penetration depth.

文摘A numerical investigation and experimental validation is performed to address deeper insights into the combined effect of shaped holes and Sand-Dune-shaped upstream Ramp(SDR)on enhancing the film cooling effectiveness,under a wide blowing ratio range(M=0.25–1.5).Three kinds of holes(Cylindrical Hole(CH),Fan-Shaped Hole(FSH),and Crater-Shaped Hole(CSH))are taken into consideration.The SDR shows an inherent affecting mechanism on the mutual interaction of jet-in-crossflow.It aggravates the lateral spreading of cooling jet and thus improves the film cooling uniformity significantly,regardless of film-hole shape and blowing ratio.When the blowing ratio is beyond 1.0,the combined effect of shaped holes and SDR on improving film cooling effectiveness behaves more significantly.It is suggested that FSH-SDR is a most favorable film cooling scheme.For FSH-SDR case,the spatially-averaged film cooling effectiveness is increased monotonously with the increase of blowing ratio,among the present bowing ratio range.

文摘To investigate the seismic behavior of specially shaped column joints with X-shaped reinforcement,two groups of specimens with or without X-shaped reinforcement in joint core region were tested under constant axial compression load and low reversed cyclic loading,which imitated low to moderate earthquake force.The seismic behavior of specially shaped column joints with X-shaped reinforcement in terms of bearing capacity,displacement,ductility,hysteretic curve,stiffness degradation and energy dissipation was studied and compared to that without Xshaped reinforcement in joint core region.With the damage estimation model,the accumulated damage was analyzed.The shearing capacity formula of specially shaped column joints reinforced by X-shaped reinforcement was proposed with a simple form.The test results show that X-shaped reinforcement is an effective measure for improving the seismic behavior of specially shaped column joints including deformation behavior,ductility and hysteretic characteristic.All specimens were damaged with gradual stiffness degeneration.In addition,X-shaped reinforcement in the joint core region is an effective way to lighten the degree of cumulated damage.The good seismic performance obtained from the specially shaped column joint with X-shaped reinforcement can be used in engineering applications.The test value is higher than the calculated value,which indicates that the formula is safe for the design of specially shaped column joints.
