Firstly, the experimental setup to measure the static output force of pneumatic artificial muscle is designed and the relationship between the static output force and the air pressure is investigated. Experimental results show that the static output force of pneumatic artificial muscle decreases nonlinearly with the increase of contraction ratio. Secondly, the model of variable camber wing driven by pneumatic artificial muscles is manufactured to validate the variable camber concept. Finally, wind tunnel tests are conducted in the low speed wind tunnel. It is found that the wing camber increases with the increase of air pressure. When the air pressure of PAMs is 0.4 MPa and 0.5 MPa, the tip displacement of the trailing-edge is 3 mm and 5 mm, respectively. The lift of aerofoil with flexible trailing-edge increases by 87% at AOA of 5°.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

文摘We investigate a class of elliptic equations with an L^(1)source in the framework of variable exponent spaces.A key characteristic of these equations is the coexistence of a degenerate coercivity term and a lower-order convection term.By employing innovative integralbased test functions,we derive the necessary a priori estimates.To prove the convergence of solutions to the degenerate coercivity problem,we adopt a method that combines monotonicity and truncation techniques.This approach allows us to demonstrate that the gradient sequences converge almost everywhere.
文摘In this paper we present certain bilinear estimates for commutators on Besov spaces with variable smoothness and integrability,and under no vanishing assumptions on the divergence of vector fields.Such commutator estimates are motivated by the study of well-posedness results for some models in incompressible fuid mechanics.

文摘The development of chassis active safety control technology has improved vehicle stability under extreme conditions.However,its cross-system and multi-functional characteristics make the controller difficult to achieve cooperative goals.In addition,the chassis system,which has high complexity,numerous subsystems,and strong coupling,will also lead to low computing efficiency and poor control effect of the controller.Therefore,this paper proposes a scenario-driven hybrid distributed model predictive control algorithm with variable control topology.This algorithm divides multiple stability regions based on the vehicle’s β−γ phase plane,forming a mapping relationship between the control structure and the vehicle’s state.A control input fusion mechanism within the transition domain is designed to mitigate the problems of system state oscillation and control input jitter caused by switching control structures.Then,a distributed state-space equation with state coupling and input coupling characteristics is constructed,and a weighted local agent cost function in quadratic programming is derived.Through cost coupling,local agents can coordinate global performance goals.Finally,through Simulink/CarSim joint simulation and hardware-in-the-loop(HIL)test,the proposed algorithm is validated to improve vehicle stability while ensuring trajectory tracking accuracy and has good applicability for multi-objective coordinated control.This paper combines the advantages of distributed MPC and decentralized MPC,achieving a balance between approximating the global optimal results and the solution’s efficiency.
文摘Cold seeps are oases for biological communities on the sea floor around hydrocarbon emission pathways.Microbial utilization of methane and other hydrocarbons yield products that fuel rich chemosynthetic communities at these sites.One such site in the cold seep ecosystem of Krishna-Godavari basin(K-G basin)along the east coast of India,discovered in Feb 2018 at a depth of 1800 m was assessed for its bacterial diversity.The seep bacterial communities were dominated by phylum Proteobacteria(57%),Firmicutes(16%)and unclassified species belonging to the family Helicobacteriaceae.The surface sediments of the seep had maximum OTUs(operational taxonomic units)(2.27×10^(3))with a Shannon alpha diversity index of 8.06.In general,environmental parameters like total organic carbon(p<0.01),sulfate(p<0.001),sulfide(p<0.05)and methane(p<0.01)were responsible for shaping the bacterial community of the cold seep ecosystem in the K-G Basin.Environmental parameters play a significant role in changing the bacterial diversity richness between different cold seep environments in the oceans.

文摘This paper presents a continuum manipulator inspired by the anatomical characteristics of the elephant trunk.Specifically,the manipulator mimics the conoid profile of the elephant trunk,which helps to enhance its strength.The design features two concentric parts:inner pneumatically actuated bellows and an outer tendon-driven helical spring.The tendons control the omnidirectional bending of the manipulator,while the fusion of the pneumatic bellows with the tendon-driven spring results in an antagonistic actuation mechanism that provides the manipulator with variable stiffness and extensibility.This paper presents a new design for extensible manipulator and analyzes its stiffness and motion characteristics.Experimental results are consistent with theoretical analysis,thereby demonstrating the validity of the theoretical approach and the versatile practical mechanical properties of the continuum manipulator.The impressive extensibility and variable stiffness of the manipulator were further demonstrated by performing a pin-hole assembly task.
文摘Application of variable speed limits(VSL)is gradually increasingly implemented especially on highways.As a result of conducted studies and implementations,it is observed that the variable speed limits have reduced the number of car accidents as well as proved positive results in terms of delays and environmental factors.Purpose of this study is to develop an algorithm for VSL application that is considered to be applied on Istanbul D100 highway and to assess the effects of application.Algorithm that is developed for VSL is a different VSL algorithm and compared with the constant speed system.According to obtained results,when the proposed system is compared to current system,it is observed that the number of delays and average stops are reduced%30 and%40 respectively and also emissions reduced at the rate of%12.
