However, its inherent brittleness poses machining problems. This study employed Elliptical Ultrasonic Vibration Milling (EUVM) to address these problems. Considering the influence of machining parameters on vibration patterns of EUVM, a separation time model was established to analyze the vibration evolutionary process, thereby instructing the cutting mechanism. On this basis, deep discussions regarding chip formation, cutting force, edge breakage, and subsurface layer deformation were conducted for EUVM and Conventional Milling (CM). Chip morphology showed the chip formation was rooted in the periodic brittle fracture. Local dimples proved that the thermal effect of high-speed cutting improved the plasticity of γ-TiAl. EUVM achieved a maximum 18.17% reduction in cutting force compared with CM. The force variation mechanism differed with changes in the cutting speed or the vibration amplitude, and its correlation with thermal softening, strain hardening, and vibratory cutting effects was analyzed. EUVM attained desirable edge breakage by achieving smaller fracture lengths. The fracture mechanisms of different phases were distinct, causing a surge in edge fracture size of γ-TiAl under microstructural differences. In terms of subsurface deformation, EUVM also showed strengthening effects. Noteworthy, the lamellar deformation patterns under the cutting removal state differed from the quasi-static, which was categorized by the orientation angles. Additionally, the electron backscattering diffraction provided details of the influence of microstructural difference on the orientation and the deformation of grains in the subsurface layer. The results demonstrate that EUVM is a promising machining method for γ-TiAl and guide further research and development of EUVM γ-TiAl.展开更多

文摘A numerical simulation analysis is conducted to examine the unsteady hydrodynamic characteristics of vortex-induced vibration(VIV)and the suppression effect of helical strakes on VIV in subsea pipelines.The analysis uses the standard k−εturbulence model for 4.5-and 12.75-inch pipes,and its accuracy is verified by comparing the results with large-scale hydrodynamic experiments.These experiments are designed to evaluate the suppression efficiency of VIV with and without helical strakes,focusing on displacement and drag coefficients under different flow conditions.Furthermore,the influence of important geometric parameters of the helical strakes on drag coefficients and VIV suppression efficiency at different flow rates is compared and discussed.Numerical results agree well with experimental data for drag coefficient and vortex shedding frequency.Spring-pipe self-excited vibration experimental tests reveal that the installation of helical strakes substantially reduces the drag coefficient of VIV within a certain flow rate range,achieving suppression efficiencies exceeding 90%with strake heights larger than 0.15D.Notably,the optimized parameter combination of helical strakes,with a pitch of 15D,a fin height of 0.2D,and 45°edge slopes,maintains high suppression efficiency,thereby exhibiting superior performance.This study provides a valuable reference for the design and application of helical strakes and VIV suppression in subsea engineering.

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The vibration response and noise caused by subway trains can affect the safety and comfort of superstructures.To study the dynamic response characteristics of subway stations and superstructures under train loads with a hard combination,a numerical model is developed in this study.The indoor model test verified the accuracy of the numerical model.The influence laws of different hard combinations,train operating speeds and modes were studied and evaluated accordingly.The results show that the frequency corresponding to the peak vibration acceleration level of each floor of the superstructure property is concentrated at 10–20 Hz.The vibration response decreases in the high-frequency parts and increases in the lowfrequency parts with increasing distance from the source.Furthermore,the factors,such as train operating speed,operating mode,and hard combination type,will affect the vibration of the superstructure.The vibration response under the reversible operation of the train is greater than that of the unidirectional operation.The operating speed of the train is proportional to its vibration response.The vibration amplification area appears between the middle and the top of the superstructure at a higher train speed.Its vibration acceleration level will exceed the limit value of relevant regulations,and vibration-damping measures are required.Within the scope of application,this study provides some suggestions for constructing subway stations and superstructures.

文摘A deep-sea mining riser is a crucial component of the system used to lift seafloor mineral resources to the vessel.It is prone to damage and failure because of harsh environmental conditions and internal fluid erosion.Furthermore,damage can impact the response characteristics of the riser,but varying environmental loadings easily mask it.Thus,distin-guishing between riser damage and environmental effects poses a considerable challenge.To address this issue,a cantilevered model is created for a deep-sea mining riser via the concentrated mass method,and a time-domain analytical strategy is developed.The vortex-induced vibration(VIV)response characteristics of the riser are initially examined,considering various damage conditions and flow velocities.The study results revealed four primary observations:(a)effective tension can serve as a reliable indicator for identifying damage at lower velocities;(b)there are noticeable differences in displacement between the healthy and damaged risers in the in-line direction rather than the cross-flow direction;(c)frequency characteristics can more effectively distinguish the damage conditions at high flow velocities,with the mean square frequency and frequency variance being more effective than the centroid frequency and root variance frequency;(d)displacement differences are more sensitive to damage occurring near the top and bottom of the riser,while both velocity variations and structural damage can influence displacements,especially in regions between modal nodes.The vibrational behavior and damage indicators are clarified for structural health monitoring of deep-sea mining risers during lifting operations.

文摘An experimental analysis of the slug-induced vibration(SIV)of a flexible catenary riser with an aspect ratio of 130 is reported in this work.The vibration responses and internal slug flow details at different gas-liquid ratios(Q_(g)/Q_(l))and mixture velocities(vm)are non-intrusively and simultaneously captured by high-speed cameras.Both the in-plane and out-of-plane responses of the catenary riser are excited in all considered cases.The slug flow characteristics,including translational velocities,slug lengths,recurrence frequencies,and pressure variations,are analyzed and dis-cussed,as are the dynamic responses of the riser in terms of the amplitudes,space-varying frequency,and modal weight.The dominant modal response based on the root-mean-square amplitude profiles does not match that based on the dominant frequency.Three mode switching types are identified based on the RMS amplitude profiles and the dominant frequency.When vm is small,no mode switching(NMS)is observed in either the in-plane or out-of-plane responses.For mode switching I(MS I),the switching between the first and second modes in the in-plane response is induced by slug flow with different recurrence frequencies in cases of large Q_(g)/Q_(l).However,there is no mode switching in the out-of-plane response.The switching between the first and third modes for the in-plane response and the second and fourth modes for the out-of-plane response(MS II)occurs in cases of relatively high vm and low Q_(g)/Q_(l).

文摘To explore the relationship between dynamic characteristics and wake patterns,numerical simulations were conducted on three equal-diameter cylinders arranged in an equilateral triangle.The simulations varied reduced velocities and gap spacing to observe flow-induced vibrations(FIVs).The immersed boundary–lattice Boltzmann flux solver(IB–LBFS)was applied as a numerical solution method,allowing for straightforward application on a simple Cartesian mesh.The accuracy and rationality of this method have been verified through comparisons with previous numerical results,including studies on flow past three stationary circular cylinders arranged in a similar pattern and vortex-induced vibrations of a single cylinder across different reduced velocities.When examining the FIVs of three cylinders,numerical simulations were carried out across a range of reduced velocities(3.0≤Ur≤13.0)and gap spacing(L=3D,4D,and 5D).The observed vibration response included several regimes:the desynchronization regime,the initial branch,and the lower branch.Notably,the transverse amplitude peaked,and a double vortex street formed in the wake when the reduced velocity reached the lower branch.This arrangement of three cylinders proved advantageous for energy capture as the upstream cylinder’s vibration response mirrored that of an isolated cylinder,while the response of each downstream cylinder was significantly enhanced.Compared to a single cylinder,the vibration and flow characteristics of this system are markedly more complex.The maximum transverse amplitudes of the downstream cylinders are nearly identical and exceed those observed in a single-cylinder set-up.Depending on the gap spacing,the flow pattern varied:it was in-phase for L=3D,antiphase for L=4D,and exhibited vortex shedding for L=5D.The wake configuration mainly featured double vortex streets for L=3D and evolved into two pairs of double vortex streets for L=5D.Consequently,it well illustrates the coupling mechanism that dynamics characteristics and wake vortex change with gap spacing and reduced velocities.

文摘BiVO_(4)porous spheres modified by ZnO were designed and synthesized using a facile two-step method.The resulting ZnO/BiVO_(4)composite catalysts have shown remarkable efficiency as piezoelectric catalysts for degrading Rhodamine B(RhB)unde mechanical vibrations,they exhibit superior activity compared to pure ZnO.The 40wt%ZnO/BiVO_(4)heterojunction composite displayed the highest activity,along with good stability and recyclability.The enhanced piezoelectric catalytic activity can be attributed to the form ation of an I-scheme heterojunction structure,which can effectively inhibit the electron-hole recombination.Furthermore,hole(h+)and superoxide radical(·O_(2)^(-))are proved to be the primary active species.Therefore,ZnO/BiVO_(4)stands as an efficient and stable piezoelectric catalyst with broad potential application in the field of environmental water pollution treatment.
文摘For the first time,the linear and nonlinear vibrations of composite rectangular sandwich plates with various geometric patterns of lattice core have been analytically examined in this work.The plate comprises a lattice core located in the middle and several homogeneous orthotropic layers that are symmetrical relative to it.For this purpose,the partial differential equations of motion have been derived based on the first-order shear deformation theory,employing Hamilton’s principle and Von Kármán’s nonlinear displacement-strain relations.Then,the nonlinear partial differential equations of the plate are converted into a time-dependent nonlinear ordinary differential equation(Duffing equation)by applying the Galerkin method.From the solution of this equation,the natural frequencies are extracted.Then,to calculate the non-linear frequencies of the plate,the non-linear equation of the plate has been solved analytically using the method of multiple scales.Finally,the effect of some critical parameters of the system,such as the thickness,height,and different angles of the stiffeners on the linear and nonlinear frequencies,has been analyzed in detail.To confirmthe solution method,the results of this research have been compared with the reported results in the literature and finite elements in ABAQUS,and a perfect match is observed.The results reveal that the geometry and configuration of core ribs strongly affect the natural frequencies of the plate.
文摘Maintaining the integrity and longevity of structures is essential in many industries,such as aerospace,nuclear,and petroleum.To achieve the cost-effectiveness of large-scale systems in petroleum drilling,a strong emphasis on structural durability and monitoring is required.This study focuses on the mechanical vibrations that occur in rotary drilling systems,which have a substantial impact on the structural integrity of drilling equipment.The study specifically investigates axial,torsional,and lateral vibrations,which might lead to negative consequences such as bit-bounce,chaotic whirling,and high-frequency stick-slip.These events not only hinder the efficiency of drilling but also lead to exhaustion and harm to the system’s components since they are difficult to be detected and controlled in real time.The study investigates the dynamic interactions of these vibrations,specifically in their high-frequency modes,usingfield data obtained from measurement while drilling.Thefindings have demonstrated the effect of strong coupling between the high-frequency modes of these vibrations on drilling sys-tem performance.The obtained results highlight the importance of considering the interconnected impacts of these vibrations when designing and implementing robust control systems.Therefore,integrating these compo-nents can increase the durability of drill bits and drill strings,as well as improve the ability to monitor and detect damage.Moreover,by exploiting thesefindings,the assessment of structural resilience in rotary drilling systems can be enhanced.Furthermore,the study demonstrates the capacity of structural health monitoring to improve the quality,dependability,and efficiency of rotary drilling systems in the petroleum industry.

文摘It is particularly important to explore the response and transmission characteristics of shoe sole when exposed to foot-transmitted vibration(FTV)in daily life.In this study,based on mechanical mobility and vibration transmissibility,the vibration response and transmission characteristics of ordinary sole and multi-cellular structure sole under three excitation modes were analyzed with finite element analysis.The analysis results of the ordinary sole are as follows:The distribution and transmission of vibration energy of ordinary sole are more related to the excitation position and mode-shape;the phalange region is more violent in vibration response to vibration and transmission of vibration.In addition,the analysis results of multi-cellular structure soles show that different types of multi-cellular structure soles have different effects on the equivalent mechanical mobility and the equivalent vibration transmissibility,among which Grid type has the greatest influence.So,this study can help prevent foot injury and provide guidance for the optimal design of the sole.

文摘To broaden the frequency regulation range of piezoelectric motors,this paper proposes a piezoelectric vibrator that operates in multiple in-plane vibration modes with distinct resonance frequencies.The piezoelectric vibrator was constructed by reasonably arranging multiple groups of piezoelectric ceramic(PZT)sheets based on the most typical rectangular plate piezoelectric motors.Suitable working modes were selected,and the excitation method of these operating modes was also analyzed.Besides,interactions between selected operating modes were also investigated.The finite element software,ANSYS,was adopted to optimize the structural parameters of the vibrator through modal analysis to match the resonance frequencies of specific modes.After that,whether the selected operating modes can be successfully motivated was verified by harmonic response analysis.Finally,the vibration characteristics of piezoelectric vibrators under conventional vibration modes and multiple modes were acquired by transient analysis,respectively.Simulation results reveal that under dual-frequency excitation scheme 1,response displacements of the driving point are relatively larger.This strategy not only facilitates the excitation of B4 mode but also enables control over the ratio of horizontal to vertical displacements of the driving point.Additionally,incorporating B4 mode expands the frequency adjustment range of piezoelectric vibrators.
